I was feeding Laura as Derek looked at the window where the Alpha Pack put their symbol,
"What does it mean?" Cora asked as Laura began squirming in my arms,
"It means they're coming... Tonight. "Derek said as I gave him a look saying 'what do we do', Derek just walked over to me as he then caressed my cheeks, I put
Laura on my shoulders till she let out a little burp, I looked at her, she fell asleep,
"Derek can you put her down for her nap?" I asked as I got up, he nodded and took our daughter,
"I'm going out for a few hours" I said getting my jacket on.
"You going to see him?" Derek asked as I nodded,
"Stay safe" He said before I nodded, I got outside and began walking towards the site. I soon found myself at Beacon Hills Cemetery, there near the trees was a black
headstone, a fox head carved into the top, it looked up at the sky, I knelt down as I looked at the description,
'Blake M. Vulpe 1969-2011 Loving Brother, Husband & Father' The name on the right made a tear go down my cheek
'Kristy V. Vulpe 1958-1994, Loving Daughter, Wife & Mother'. I let my hand touch the stone,
"Hey guys it's been a while huh" I said as I sat on the grass,
"Mom, you didn't deserve to die, I never knew you, but I wish I did" I said looking at a bunny that was hopping into the forest,
"Dad, I miss you so much, but I know that both of you are here in spirit, I wish you were both here to see your granddaughter" I said feeling tears going down my
face. My face fell into my hands as I sobbed, the winds picked up as I felt something touch my shoulders, I looked up to see my father,
"Daddy?" I asked as I sniffled, "You were right, we never left you, even if you couldn't see us" He said as I hugged him, he was almost transparent, but I could still
feel his touch,
"Wait we?" I asked as a ball of light began appearing behind him, it soon took a transparent form of a woman, her brunette locks waving in the wind as the sun made
her apricot skin glow, her green eyes looking dead at me as she smiled. She knelt down next to my dad,
"My little Alexandra, you have grown" Her voice sounded like an angels as I went wide eyed.
"Mom?" I asked as she smiled,
"Yes my little one" She replied as I tackled her in a hug, Dad's arms wrapped around us, we parted as I sniffled, wiping the tears away,
"You have my face" She said smiling as I chuckled,
"I guess I do" I said as my parents looked proud of me,
"I see your wearing the necklace" Mom said as she felt it with her hands,
"Never took it off" I replied as she smiled,
"I am so proud of you babygirl. A mother of her own" Dad said as I smiled,
"She's perfect in every way Daddy, Derek loves her so much" I said as I remember Derek holding our babygirl once she was born.
"Laura Selena Hale is my babygirl" I said smiling as I felt the engagement ring on my finger,
"She's pure as fresh fallen snow Mom" I said as she kissed my forehead,
"It's time Blake" Mom said as I felt tears going down my face,
"Shh Lexi we aren't leaving you, we'll meet again, till then we are always here even if you can't see us" Dad said wiping my tears away.
"I love you both so much" I said as I smiled at them,
"As we love you, our precious angel" Mom said as I smiled, I watched as they got up, intertwining their hands as they began walking away, soon they disappeared as I
felt the wind ruffle my hair. I closed my eyes as I continued to remember their scents, locking it in my mind, I got up to begin walking home,
"Lexi" A voice called to me but I just continued walking,
"Lil Fox" another voice called me so I just continued to walk faster,
"Alpha's Imprint" another voice called me, so this time I ran into the woods, I couldn't see who was chasing me as I just continued to run deeper into the forest.
Something tripped me causing me to fall, I got up as I grew out my claws and bared my fangs. A force pushed me into a boulder, my vision was blurred as I saw
three different figures walking towards me, I got up only for one of the figures to slam my spine making me fall. I was slightly lifted as I felt something pierce my
neck, then I felt a burning liquid being injected into me, I screamed in pain as I felt the liquid burning my body, my vision cleared a bit as I saw a slightly blurred
Kali,
"Hello Lexi,glad we could meet"She said as I watched a pair of people appear beside her.
"What did you do to me?" I groaned as my body spazzed in another twinge of pain,
"I injected you with FoxGlove, Not enough to kill you but enough to keep you complaint" She said making her eyes glow,
"What do you want with me?" I asked as she lifted my chin,
"We need you as incentive for Derek" She said smirking as someone put my arms on a pair of shoulders,
"Incentive for what?" I asked as the bodies that held me up began walking/dragging me.
"To fight so we can get him to kill one of his beta" She said as we got to a car,
"He won't do that" I said weakly trying to put my head up,
"Oh well see lil fox" Kali said as she got the car started,she drove for what seemed like forever, but soon stopped at what I could tell was the loft
"Lets go boys, she looks sickly pale" Kali said smirking as the twins dragged me with them, I want to fight but this fucking FoxGlove is making me useless.
"Kali don't do this" I said weak as my body tried healing, it was working but it's slow and it hurt.
"Ennis was my one true love and your Imprint took him" She growled at me as I looked up at her weakly as Aiden and Ethan soon stopped,
"Kali" I said as she then slapped me,
"Shut up"She growled as I huffed.
"Isn't that supposed to be on?" I heard Isaac's voice echo in my ears, oh no,
"Yeah."Derek replied as I heard water swishing under his steps,
"What does it mean if it's not? " Isaac said as I was still weak from the FoxGlove,
"Someone cut the auxiliary power. " Derek replied as I took another breath in which hurt my body,
"What about the main... " Boyd's voice filled my ears, not Boyd too please,
"Derek... What do we do now? " Isaac asked as I smelt anger mixed with worry in my Imprint's scent,
" We fight. " Derek growled as Kali went to the door, my head slightly lulling as I tried to lift it up but failed as it fell again. I heard the door open as Kali's claws
clicked on the floor
"Gonna be honest, Derek. When Ennis died, I thought to myself I'd just go for it. Find you and kill you, wherever you stood. Then I remembered how you surround
yourself with these teenagers, hiding behind them, and I thought, "what's a girl got to do to get you alone?" "Kali said as I felt the twin's take me to close to where
Kali was. I looked up to see Derek looking pissed at Kali but worried for me, Aiden's claws on my neck as Ethan kept me standing, I wanted to go to my love, but I
can't,
"What did you do to her" Derek growled at Kali, she looked at me then at him,
"Just injected FoxGlove into her, ya know keep her compliant" Kali said chuckling at my weak attempts to get free,
"You and me Derek, or they tear her apart. What do you say? You think you can beat me one on one?" She asked as I watched Derek move his head to the side,
telling Isaac and Boyd to get out of the water, Derek made his eyes glow bright red as he looked at the Alpha SheWolf,
"I'm gonna rip your throat out with my teeth. " He said as he bared his fangs at her, Kali growled vengefully as Derek roared at her. Kali jumped in the water as she
tried to slash him, but Derek backed away as she tried, Derek scratched her on the side, but Kali kicks his face hard, I watched as Kali clawed his face as they spun, I
tried to get to them, but the twins had me in a good grip and my body was still pushing the toxin out of my body, I whimpered as I felt a bit of Derek's pain through
the bond we shared. I saw Derek look at Isaac, who darted to me as the power was back on, shocking Derek and Boyd, then the power died again.
"Take him! " Kali screamed at the Twins who grabbed Derek, Isaac held me as I whimpered due to the toxins still in my body, I watched as Kali held up Boyd, the
Twins forced Derek to unclench his hand,revealing his claws. Kali then impaled Boyd on his claws,
"NOOOOO" I screamed as I felt adrenaline filling me, making the FoxGlove disappear, I got up but I couldn't help but watch as Derek's eyes glowed twice as bright,
Boyd's gasps for breath as the Twin's let Derek's arms go, Boyd still on Derek's claws. Kali and the twins just stared at Derek, she began walking towards the door, but
she then looked back at my Imprint.
"I'm giving you till the next full moon, Derek. Make the smart choice. Join the pack...Or next time I'm killing all of you."She said making me growl as the twins and
her left, but I turned around as I heard Derek telling Boyd it's not ok. I got up running towards them,
"It's okay. " Boyd said looking at me, I felt tears leaving my eyes,
"No, no. No, it's not. It's not. " I said as Boyd looked at me,
"This shouldn't have happened" Derek told Boyd,
"It's all okay, Derek. " Boyd told him as I let out a sob,
"I'm... l'm sorry." Derek told him as I watched Boyd looking at both of us
"The full moon. That feeling... That was worth it. There's a lunar eclipse. I always wondered what... What that felt like for one of us. For one of us..." He said before
falling into the water off of Derek's claws, I was shaking as I saw Cora run to Boyd's dead body crying, Stiles just looked at us with Lydia by his side,
"No No No No No" I said crying, but soon felt arms around me, I looked to see Derek pulling me to his body, I just bawled on his chest as I felt his tears fall on my
head.
"Shh Shh" Derek said as I felt his breathing shudder with every attempt to calm my body down as I sobbed.
"I can't, Derek I can't keep losing people that means something to me, please, I can't, I can't" I sobbed as I pictured what happened at my parent's grave earlier. I
felt Derek's arms picking me up bridal style as I just continued to sob loudly,
"I can't" I said crying more, "Shh" Derek said as I felt his tears on my forehead. I wrapped my arms around his neck, Boyd wasn't just a normal beta, he wasn't just
a person, he wasn't just a teenager, he wasn't just pack, Boyd was family.
