I was looking for an outfit for tomorrow for the funeral, I felt Derek's arms around me, his lips ghosting over my neck, and I just sighed. I turn around to see his
green eyes staring into my dusk blue ones,
"Are you going to be there" I asked as our foreheads touched,
"I will be there by your side, like I promised your father" Derek replied before kissing my forehead. I felt him place his hands on my small round bump, I laid in my
bed, Derek sat beside me, placing his ear near my womb. I scratch his hair in my hands as he comforts me.
"Stay please" I said feeling tears welding up in my eyes.
"Of course" He replies as he lays beside me, I feel him wrap his arms around my body, my head on his chest.
"Nothing will keep me from you" Derek said before I fell asleep, I woke up the next morning feeling sick, last nights dinner was coming up my throat, I jumped off of
Derek and ran to my bathroom. I began hurling, I felt my hair move away from my face, a warm hand rubbing my back, I continued throwing up till I was dry
heaving. I soon got up,Derek looked at me concerned,but I shook my head at him
"It's ok, just morning sickness, it'll pass about at the end of the first trimester" I said before brushing my teeth. I got dressed,
"You know you don't have to go today" Derek said as I popped a piece of bread in my toaster.
"Can't I have a test in Chemistry"I said as he gave me a glass of orange juice,
"Thanks" I replied as I drank. My toast popped out, Derek got it, put butter on it, then handed it to me, but stole a kiss before giving it over.
"Cheeky bastard" I groan before taking a bite. Derek ended up taking me to school, I leaned in a kissed him before getting out to see Scott and Stiles. but before I
walked to them I watched the slick camaro disappear
"She ate the liver?" Scott asked Stiles as I got to them,
"No, I didn't say she ate it. I just said it was missing. And you know what? Even if she did, so what? It's the most nutritious part of the body." Stiles said making me
shake my head,
"Too much information" I said patting my small bump,
"Right forgot your pregnant with the sourwolf's spawn" Stiles said as I rolled my eyes and growled, Stiles jumped closer to Scott and placed the young wolf in front of
him like a shield.
"Well I never ate anyone's liver." Scott said as I smiled,
"Good don't, cause if you do I am after you" I told him as we walked towards the school,
"Yeah, right, 'cause when it comes to werewolves, you're a real model of self - control." Stiles said making us stop as he pointed at Scott.
"Actually, wait - hold on. You're the test case for this, so we should be going over what happened to you." Stiles said as Scott looked at him confused,
"What do you mean?" Scott asked as I smirked, thinking to myself, "I mean like what was going through your mind when you were turning, you know? What were
you drawn to?"Stiles asked as he looked at the beta,
"Allison."Scott said with a slight smile.
"I was thinking about Derek" I said as I chuckled a bit
"Okay, nothing else? Seriously?" Stiles said complaining,
"Nothing else mattered. But, no, that's good, though, right? 'Cause the night that Lydia was bit, she was with you." Scott said confident,
"Yeah, but she was looking for - Jackson." Stiles said before I smelt the rich boy's scent infuriate my nose, Derek told me he had bitten him. I headed to class, soon I
got to Chemistry, I sat down next to Danny and Harris handed me my quiz, he gave me a concerned look,
"Lexi if you need to leave at anytime just let me know" He said as he gave me the quiz,
"Thanks" I said giving him a nod.
"And I'm so sorry about your father he was a good man" Harris says making me take in a deep breath, my heartbeat was increasing more, as Harris continued to
pass out the test I saw Scott looking concerned at me, I was trying to hold back the tears, but it was getting harder to do, I can't have stress it could affect the baby.
"Hey Scott, Focus" Stiles told his best friend,
"All right, it's causing me severe mental anguish to say this, but he's right." I heard Stiles as I started answering my questions,
"I know." Scott replied as I filled out algorithm for science 101,
"What if the next body part she steals is from someone who's still alive?" Stiles whispered to Scott,
"This is a pop quiz, Mr. Stilinski. If I hear your voice again, I may be tempted to give you detention for the rest of your high school career." Harris told him,
"Can you do that?" Stiles asked him, I scoffed quietly, and continued my last question.
"Well, there it is again. Your voice. Triggering the only impulse I've ever had to strike a student repeatedly and violently. I'll see you at 3:00 for detention. You too, Mr.
McCall?" Harris asked Scott as I walked up and gave him the quiz, then I returned to my seat and began English homework.
"No, sir." Scott replied to him, I watched as Jackson's nose began to drip black blood, wait black!
"Dude - your nose. You okay?" Danny asked as Jackson then left the room, I looked at Danny, who looked at me, and I just shrugged my shoulders. Chemistry ended,
I walked out of the class and to my locker, my phone let out a small ringtone, I pulled out my phone to see Derek's Pic ID, I smiled before hitting the accept button,
"Hey Babe" I said as I began putting in my combination.
"Lexi want me to pick you up before the funeral" Derek asked as I opened up my locker to find an outfit and shoes inside.
"Yes please" I said feeling the fabric, I take it out and put the dress and shoes in my bag,
"Thanks"I said as I continued walking towards the steps to my next class,
"I hope it's like you" I said as I quickly look at my belly,
"I rather it be as beautiful as you, both you and our baby mean everything to me, and I won't have it any other way" Derek said making me chuckle.
"I have to go, I have English next, I love you" I said feeling a tear going down my cheek. I quickly wipe it away,
"I love you too Lexi and our baby"Derek replied before hanging up, I hung up as well, as I began to walk to class, something caught my ear's sensitive hearing.
"Not her sister, her aunt. The one who murdered all those people." A girl's voice caught me ear,
"You mean the crazy bitch who killed all those people?" Another girl said as I looked from afar, my heartbeat was getting faster and my emotions are growing more,
"Yeah, the fire, all those animal attacks - it was her aunt and she killed Alexandra Vulpe's father out in cold blood." the girl said making me start walking,
"Are you kidding?" the other girl asked as I could feel eyes on me,
"Apparently also Alexandra is dating Derek Hale" She says as I get to class, as I sat in my seat, I can still hear people talking about Kate killing my father. My heart
was beating like crazy, I saw Scott looking at me and Stiles was as well, class started but I can't take today, Derek was right I shouldn't have came. I grabbed my bag
and ran out of the room, I went to the girl's locker room and just sat down trying to keep in my emotions, I held my legs to my chest as I cried, a hand felt my back,
I jerked up and saw Derek right there,
"Shh" He said as I soon gripped him tight and cried, I just sat there for five minutes in his lap, he was trying to calm me down,
"I told you that you didn't need to go" he says as I sniffle,
"You're right" I said as he caressed my cheeks,
"Like always" Derek said making me nuzzle his cheeks,
"You can't stay here" I said as he got up,
"I know" He replied as he then held me again, while also feeling my belly.
"I'll make it through I promise" I said as he caressed my cheek before he kisses my lips with patience and emotion, I pressed back as a longing kiss.
"I'll see you after" He said with a rare Hale smile,
"I'll wait for you" I said as I shoo him away, as soon as he was gone I went through the rest of my day. When the final bell did ring, I got out of the seat, picked up
my bag, and began walking outside. I saw the slick black camaro with Derek standing by the passenger door, I walked towards him, pressing my lips to his. I know
people were staring at me, I didn't care, I just wrapped my arms around his neck and I felt his hands go to my hips pulling me towards his parted but our foreheads
were still touching, I felt tears running down my face,
"Shh Lexi, Shh My little MoonFlower" He said as I looked into those loving emerald eyes. I smiled as he opened the door, I slide inside and buckled up. Derek soon got
in the driver seat, started the Camaro and drove, I texted my aunt Ba'lin to bring my mom's harp, I was going to play a special piece of music for my dad, it was his
favorite. Derek took me to his place so I could change.
"You look so beautiful" Derek said dressed in a tux,
"well you look handsome" I said as I pressed a kiss upon his scruffy cheek.
"Your going to do alright" Derek said as I kissed his palm. I felt it trail to my small bump.
"I have an appointment Friday for the baby" I said smiling,
"I will be there" He said as we walked to his car. We drove to the cemetary, I saw the press crowding my family and the Argents, Derek looked at me. I nodded, we
got out of the car, immediately the press surrounded me, but Derek and the Sheriff got me to the block where I can see my family.
"Thank you" I said as I felt Derek's arms surround me. The funeral went by slow, but I smelt Scott and Stiles, Derek stayed by my side, Aunt Ba'lin gave me the harp,
I walked to the seat where I saw the press and my family looking at me, but my focus was on Derek.
"My father meant alot to many people, even the community, but Dad was taken before his time, snatched by an enemy that didn't think he had a family, but I am his
family, I am proud to be called his daughter, so I am going to play one of his favorite harp pieces" I said as I prepped the instrument. I took a deep breath, placed my
hands on the starting strings, then began playing the melody. While I played this, I closed my eyes, thinking about all my memories with Dad, then memories of
Derek and I. I soon got to the last note, I looked up, Derek was crying, so was my family, but they clapped respectfully. Soon they began lowering my father's coffin,
I threw the dirt on it and then I felt Derek wrap his arms around me. He walked me back to the car, got in and we drove. Soon we scented Scott, so we ran in the
deeper part of the preserve, Derek and I found him looking at the suspended wolf, Derek threw Scott away from the Omega, I got behind Derek as he held a
struggling Scott.
"Wait! Stop! What are you doing? I can help him." Scott pleaded at us, I shook my head, but Scott was still struggling.
"No the Argents are here" Derek said keeping a tight grip on him, Scott soon stopped struggling, groups of hunters, the Argents appeared and surrounded the
struggling omega that was hanging from the rope. The poor Omega turning, growling at them, Chris took out his baton, full electric, sticking the baton against the
Omega's chest, electrocuting him. The Omega let out pain filled growls then they turned into screams of pain, Chris removed the baton from the wolf.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" Chris asked him as the wolf huffed trying to calm down.
"Nothing. Nothing, I swear." He said as his voice became shaky and full of fear.
"You're not from here, are you? Are you?!" Chris yelled at the wolf.
"No. No, I came - I came looking for the Alpha and his Mate. I heard they was here. That's all. Look, I didn't do anything. I didn't hurt anyone. No one living. He
wasn't alive in the ambulance. He wasn't, I swear." The Omega begged the hunters to let him live.
"Gentlemen! Take a look at a rare sight. You wanna tell them what we've caught?" Gerard said as he looked the Omega, the old man smelt of cancer and sickness,
but also anger.
"An Omega." Chris said keeping an eye on the wolf.
"The lone wolf! Possibly kicked out of his own pack. Or the survivor of a pack that was hunted down. Maybe even murdered. And possibly alone by his own choice.
Certainly not a wise choice." Gerard said as he grabbed something, a large broad sword, slowly walking back to the suspended Omega.
"Because, as I am about to demonstrate" Gerard said as he gripped the sword's hilt hard in his hands.
"an Omega rarely survives" He spat as he welded the sword like he was about to swing a baseball bat.
"On his own." Gerard said before swinging the broad sword at the Omega, slicing him in two, I had to place my head in Derek's shoulder to keep myself from
screaming.
"Look. Look. Look at them! You see what they do? This is why you need us. Why we need each other. The only way to fight them is together." Derek growled at Scott,
I looked at his face, then he looked at me with a sorrowful look..
"What are they doing?" Scott asked as I shook my head,
"Declaring war." I responded.
"We have a code." Chris told his father as he walked to him, but Gerard turned around after sinking the broad sword into the ground.
"Not when they murder my daughter. No code. Not anymore. From now on, these things are just bodies waiting to be cut in half. Are you listening? Because I don't
care if they're wounded and weak. Or seemingly harmless - begging for their life with the promise that they will never, ever hurt anyone. Or some desperate, lost soul
with no idea what they're getting into. We find them. We kill them. We kill them all." Gerard yelled as if there were other wolves in the woods. Derek, Scott and I got
out of there like bats fresh outta hell.
