Skye's POV

I was woken up by the sound of my dad getting up and looked at the clock which told me it was the middle of the night, I got up and walked over to my door opening it to peek out and saw him walking down the hall.

"Dad what's going on?" he looked up and saw me.

"Oh uh…nothing to worry about, Chris Argent called me and said is sister was coming into town and ran into the Alpha, I'm going to go out and see if I can track it down" I frowned because I didn't know Kate was getting involved with this hunt and frankly I didn't like it because I've never like her.

"Want me to come help?" I asked him.

"No it's okay, you have school in the morning" I frowned wanting to argue but new it would be futile. "Don't worry kiddo, I should be home before you wake up again" I nodded and let him kiss my forehead then watched him leave before I returned to bed but barely got any sleep before the sun was rising and my alarm went off.

I showered quickly then got dressed into a knee high strapless dress that was black around the bust but had a red flannel skirt flaring out around my hips and I paired it with some knee high black boots and a black leather jacket which had a skull on one side.

I went downstairs hoping my dad was back but he wasn't so I grabbed my phone and sent him a quick text to make sure he was okay and got one back.

I'm okay Skye, it's taking a little bit longer than I thought, I'll be home later – dad.

Okay, be careful – Skye.

This was the part I hated the most, my dad always took my brother on hunts and when dad finally started training me I thought he'd do the same and let me be the hunter he's trained me to be but unless he absolutely had no choice he refused to let me go along with him and after what happened to my mom it terrified me that one day he might not come back.

I walked into the garage and looked over at Jake's car, I was really starting to miss him because he was my best friend growing up and the only one who truly understood the life we lived being a part of this family and the grief I feel when I think about my mother.

I hopped onto my bike and pulled on my fingerless black leather gloves then pulled on my helmet and rode to school as I was now running late and ran into class just as our teacher surprised us with a pop quiz and I didn't know how I went so when we we're getting the results back I couldn't stop my knee bouncing.

"If Derek isn't the Alpha, if he's not the one who bit you then who did" I heard Stiles ask Scott so I looked over and rolled my eyes at him because honestly they shouldn't be discussing this around other people.

"I don't know" Scott replied without looking back at Stiles.

"Did the Alpha kill the bus driver?" Stiles asked being as persistent as ever today.

"I don't know"

"Does Allison's dad know about the…"

"I DON'T KNOW" Scott yelled causing multiple heads turn.

"Will you two shut up" I whispered glaring at them just as our teacher gave us back our quizzes making me smile because I got a B+ surprisingly.

"Dude you need to study more" I looked up confused and saw Stiles was looking at Scott's test which showed a large D- in red ink, Scott threw the test down angrily against his desk. "That was a joke, Scott it's one test you're going to make it up, do you want help studying?"

"No" Scott sighed shaking his head. "I'm studying with Allison after school today"

"That's my boy" Stiles replied but I frowned not liking that at all especially now that I knew Kate was in town and that bitch was psychotic on her best days.

"We're just studying" Scott argued.

"Uh-uh, no you're not"

"I'm not?" Scott asked him confused but I knew what Stiles was insinuating so I pretended to gag and Stiles glared at me.

"Not if I'm forced to live vicariously through you, if you go to her house and squander that colossal opportunity, I swear to god I'll have you de-balled" I rolled my eyes shaking me head at him.

"Okay!" Scott exclaimed quietly. "Just stop with the questions, man"

"Done" Stiles replied holding up his hands in surrender. "No more questions, no more talk about the Alpha or Derek, especially Derek who still scares me" I sniggered and Stiles glared over at me again. "Shut up" I knew if Derek knew that then he'd try to be even scarier and that thought made me laugh even harder at him.


Derek's POV

I clench my fists as I walk down the hallway trying to push back the pain in my arm as students pushed their way past me one even bumping into my sore arm and I bit back the growl that I wanted to send their way, I saw Jackson ahead at his locker so I walked up to him quickly.

"Where's Scott McCall?" I wanted to ask for Skyler as well but I know she doesn't want anyone knowing we know each other and I agreed with her because it was safer for both of us no matter how much I wanted to be around her.

"Why should I tell you?" he asked.

"Because I asked you politely and I only do that once" he smirked unamused by my threat.

"Mmm" he scoffed. "Okay tuff guy, how about I help you find him if you tell me what you're selling him?" I stared at him. "What is it, is it Dianabol, HGH?"

"Steroids?" I shake my head then try to walk around him but he steps in front of me halting my leave.

"No girl scout cookies, what the hell do you think I'm taking about?" he asked then looks me up and down. "By the way whatever it is you're selling I'd probably stop sampling the merchandise, you looked wrecked" I force back my anger towards this kid as I felt the blood dripping down my arm and falling to the floor, I clenched my fist to stop my shift and to stop the blood dripping.

"I'll find him myself" I scoffed and tried to move around him again.

"No we're not done here" Jackson grabbed my shoulder but I spun and pushed him up against the locker slamming his face into it but I noticed my claws had come out and cut into the back of his neck.

I quickly pulled them out and walked away as fast as I can needing to find one of the pair of idiots although not Skyler, she can't see me like this, I don't want to hurt her because I can't control myself and don't want her getting involved.

I leaned against a wall holding my injured arm as I tried to focus on the sounds around me trying to find either one of the idiots and found the voice of Scott's girlfriend talking to the Lydia girl about Scott coming over and about covering up.

"Just don't do anything I wouldn't do Ally" I stopped knowing that voice, Skye.


Skyler's POV

"Just studying never ends with just studying, it's like getting in a hot tub" I heard Lydia say to Allison as I walked around the corner and I raised an eyebrow not understanding what a hot tub had to do with studying. "Someone eventually cops a feel" I watched Allison blush.

"So what are you saying?" Allison asked her but I was slowly getting what Lydia was saying.

"I'm just saying, you know make sure he covers up" I laughed at the look on Allison's face. "Hello Snow White I'm talking about a condom" Lydia added tapping Allison's arm.

"Are you kidding!" Allison chuckled. "After one date?"

"Don't be a total prude, give him a little taste" I rolled my eyes at Lydia because seriously Allison should not be jumping into bed with Scott especially Scott.

"Well, I mean how much is a little taste?" Allison asked her nervously and looked to me but I shrugged as I hadn't any experience in this department either, the hunter life didn't leave much for teenage romance.

"Oh god you really like him, don't you?" Lydia asked her sounding shocked and I'll admit I was to.

"Well he's just different" I fought back the scoff. "When I first moved here I had a plan, no boyfriends till college, I just move too much but then I met him and he was different" I nodded understanding that feeling. "I don't know, I can't explain it" I smiled at Allison.

"I can, it's your brain flooding with phenylethylamine" Lydia replied and both Ally and I looked at her confused.

"Just don't do anything I wouldn't do Ally" I cut in quickly then walked away letting Lydia talk about how much a little taste is.

I walked away still smiling to myself as the bell rang signalling the end of school but when I looked down the hall I saw Derek standing at the end of some lockers grunting in pain as he was right below the bell as it rang.

"Derek?" I ran over to him and he looked up shocked. "What's wrong?" I noticed how pale he looked so I did a sweep over his body and saw blood dripping down his hand to the ground. "Your bleeding!"

"I was shot" my eyes widened in shock. "I need to find Scott" he started walking towards the car park so I quickly followed him.

"Wait you can't just run around…Derek!" he wasn't listening to a word I said so I followed him just as he ran out in front of Stiles' jeep forcing him to hit the breaks to avoid hitting Derek. "Oh for the love of…" I yelled as Derek fell backwards collapsing. "Derek?" I skidded to the ground beside him with Scott and Stiles right behind me.

"What are you doing here?" Scott asked him.

"I was shot" Derek replied breathing heavily.

"He's not looking so good, guys" I rolled my eyes at Stiles for once again pointing out the obvious.

"Why aren't you healing?" Scott asked him.

"I can't" Derek replied grunting in pain. "It was a different kind of bullet"

"A silver bullet?" Stiles asked excitedly.

"No you idiot" I replied glaring up at him then turned to Derek worriedly. "It's wolfsbane" I added and Derek nodded his head.

"Wait, wait…that's what she meant when she said you had 48 hours" Scott suddenly said talking to himself.

"What…who…who said 48 hours?" Derek asked him.

"Kate" I said knowing she was the stupid bitch who'd shot at Derek and the reason my dad had to rush out last night, Derek looked up at me shocked but then winced grunting as his eyes started flashing between his electric blue werewolf eyes and his normal forest green.

"What are you doing stop that!" Scott exclaimed quietly.

"He can't idiot, help me get him up" I grabbed an arm. "Derek get up" he nodded and helped me and Scott get him standing then led him towards Stiles' jeep putting him into the passenger seat.

"I need you to find out what kind of bullet they used" Derek asked looking at Scott.

"How the hell am I supposed to do that, why can't you find it" Scott replied then turned to me but I shook my head.

"The argents use types of wolfsbane my father and I don't, it has to be you Scott please" he looked at me confused when I said please and even I don't know why I said it.

"Look Skye can't help and the one who shot me she's an Argent, she's with them" Derek cut in.

"Why should I help you?" Scott asked looking at him.

"Because you need me" Derek replied as I ran around to Stiles' side and quickly jumped into the back before Stiles' climbed into the drivers seat.

"Fine I'll try" Scott sighed then looked to Stiles. "Hey get him out of here"

"I hate you so much for this" Stiles replied then drove off, I leaned forward in the seat resting my arms on the back on their seats and laid my chin on them watching over Derek as he held his arm in pain.

'Did you find it yet?' I saw Stiles text Scott since we had been driving for a at least twenty minutes and I could only helplessly look on as Derek started to take off his jacket but was struggling so I leaned forward and helped him then folded it for him feeling helpless.

"Try not to bleed out on my seats okay" Stiles demanded pointing to the blood soaking through Derek's long sleeved shirt "We're almost there"

"Almost where?" Derek asked still with pain clearly laced in his voice

"Your house" Stiles stated like it was obvious.

"What no, you can't take me there" he argued quickly.

"I can't take you to your own house?" Stiles replied.

"Not when I can't protect myself" Stiles groaned and pulled over to the curb, stopping the car.

"What happens if Scott doesn't find your little magic bullet, are you dying?" Stiles asked Derek but remained silent which didn't help the strange feeling of worry I had over him at the moment especially because I knew if we didn't find out what type of wolfsbane was currently coursing through his blood then he was going to die and I really didn't want that to happen, Derek didn't deserve to die the Alpha did.

"Not yet" he replied looking back at me and I nodded knowing he was asking me for a confirmation.

"What do you mean not yet" Stiles asked.

"I have a last resort" Derek replied confusing even me.

"What do you mean?" Stiles exclaimed. "What last resort?" Derek lifted up his left sleeve, revealing a bloody and infected bullet wound. "Oh my god, what is that oh is that contagious, maybe you should just get out"

"Stiles!" I exclaimed angrily and hit the back of his head.

"Start the car" Derek cut in glaring at Stiles. "Now"

"I don't think you should be barking orders with the way you look, okay?" Stiles said making me roll my eyes at the word barking because I knew that was meant to be an attempt at a dog joke which was just not funny in this situation. "In fact I think if I wanted to, I could probably drag your little werewolf ass out into the middle of the road and leave you for dead"

"Start the car now or I'm gonna rip your throat out with my teeth" Derek replied and I couldn't help the smirk, Stiles stared at him for a couple seconds before sighing and started the car starting to drive again.

"Give me your arm Derek, I might be able to stop the bleeding" I reached into my backpack and grabbed out my first aid kit then turned back to Derek who was angled my way and letting me tend to his wound so I pressed a gauze pad to the wound then tightly wrapped some bandage around it. "That should do it for now but we need to figure out what type of wolfsbane bitchface used" Derek smirked at my word choice.

We could nothing though until Scott got back to us and that was taking way too long for my liking especially when it got dark and my phone suddenly rang with my dad's ringtone going off and I panicked.

"Everybody shut up and don't speak" I said glaring at them they answered it. "Hi dad"

"Skye we're are you, it's getting late kiddo"

"Uh I'm studying with a friend and forgot to call sorry"

"What friend?" I panicked and looked up at Stiles.

"Uh Stiles, he's the Sheriff's son"

"What kind of name is Stiles?" I laughed at my dad's question.

"Don't ask me, we've got a really big test coming up so I might still be a while" I replied scratching the back of my neck nervously.

"Alright kid but next time call me and let me know your going to be out studying with friends okay"

"Yeah I will, don't wait up for me okay"

"Don't stay out too late especially with this boy" I groaned.

"Dad it's not like that, we're really studying" I saw Stiles look over at me with a smile so I motioned for him to zip it. "Gotta go dad, I'll see you when I get home" I hung up then groaned. "Not a word Stilinski" he laughed and I saw Derek rolling his eyes at us.

"God I'm sick of driving" Stiles suddenly exclaimed then pulled over again and grabbed his phone calling Scott. "What am I supposed to do with him?" he asked when Scott answered and put the phone on loudspeaker when I motioned for him to do so.

"Take him somewhere, anywhere!" Scott exclaimed whispering, Stiles sighed loudly.

"And by the way, he's starting to smell" I watched Derek turn and glare at Stiles angrily making me snigger because Stiles really knew how to piss off Derek.

"Li…like what?" Scott asked him.

"Like death!" Stiles exclaimed and we waited for Scott who was taking his time answering.

"Okay, take him to the animal clinic"

"What about your boss?" Stiles asked him as I looked on with confusion.

"He's gone by now, there's a spare key in a box behind the dumpster" Stiles sighed in frustration looking up at Derek.

"Are you hearing where he wants me to take you?" Derek glared at him then grabbed the phone off him.

"Did you find it?" Derek asked him through a deep breath and I knew he was getting worse with every passing minute.

"How am I supposed to find one bullet?" Scott growled out angrily. "They have a million, this house is like the friggin Walmart of guns!" I scoffed.

"You should see my place" I laughed but Derek turned to glare at me so I shut up.

"Look if you don't find it then I'm dead all right" Derek argued.

"I'm starting to think that wouldn't be such a bad thing" Scott replied.

"Then think about this, the Alpha called you out against your will he's going to do it again, next time you either kill with him or you get killed" I rolled my eyes not understanding how that made any sense. "So if you want to stay alive then you need me, find the bullet" Derek snapped then hung up.

"So where are we going?" I asked Stiles as he pulled back out onto the road.

"The animal clinic" I sighed then sat back in my seat anxiously bouncing my knees nervously thinking about my sudden concern for Derek.

I shouldn't even be here especially since I had lied to my dad and was going behind his back to help a werewolf when I was supposed to be my instinct to let them die and kill them if necessary when I could, it's what I've been training to do and yet now I was second guessing everything I'd been taught.

We pulled up at the animal clinic and climbed out, I quickly went around and helped Derek putting his arm around my shoulders while Stiles grabbed the key from the dumpster then opened up the back garage entrance so I led Derek over to some dog food bags and set him down.

"Does Nordic Blue Monkshood mean anything to you two?" Stiles asked looking up from his phone, I groaned hanging my head low as I looked up at Derek with worry because he was sweating really bad now and still getting worse by the second and I knew if we didn't get a sample of the wolfsbane then Derek was going to die.

"It's a rare form of wolfsbane" I replied with a sigh.

"He has to bring me the bullet" Derek added groaning in pain as he held his arm.

"Why?" Stiles asked us.

"Because he's going to die without it" I replied looking up at Stiles before I grabbed Derek's good arm and helped him stand and lean against me again before I lead him into the clinic's operating room.

Stiles flipped on the lights and Derek let go of me to remove his shirt and I froze staring at his back and let my eyes slowly wander over the rest of him taking note of the triskele tattooed on in the middle of his shoulder blades and every one of his muscles which we're in one word sexy and I had the sudden thought of wanting to lick…oh my god what the hell.

He saw me looking and smirked over at me before bending over the metal operating table in the centre of the room so I quickly shook my head and forced myself to focus back on the task at hand here instead of letting my libido get the better of me again.

"Uh I should take a look at it again" I muttered shaking off those thoughts then went over to him and unwrapped the bandage then removed the gauze pad to look over the wound which was severely infected now and the poison was almost reaching the top of his arm and wouldn't take long to reach his heart after that which would kill him.

"You know that really doesn't look like anything some echinacea and a good night's sleep couldn't take care of" Stiles spoke up standing on the other side of the table staring down at the wound on Derek's arm.

"When the infection reaches my heart, it'll kill me" Derek replied then walked over to the cabinets and started looking through them.

"Positivity just isn't in your vocabulary, is it?" Stiles asked him sarcastically.

"If he doesn't get here with the bullet in time...last resort"

"Which is?" I asked him then watched as he turned around holding up a surgical saw.

"You're going to cut off my arm" I stared at him trying to see if he was kidding but the look in his gorgeous green eyes told me he wasn't.

"No!" I exclaimed watching him frown. "No freaking way Derek, neither of us is going to cut off your arm" he walked over to the table and put the saw down then slid it towards Stiles.

"You cut my arm off" Stiles grabbed it then held down trigger and it revved to life.

"Oh my god, what if you bleed to death?" Stiles asked him looking five shades whiter.

"It'll heal if it works" Derek replied tying something around the top of his bicep with his teeth to stop the blood flow as I could again do nothing but stare at him thinking he'd lost his bloody mind.

"Derek you can't do this"

"He can't do this, I can't do this!" Stiles exclaimed cutting me off.

"Why not?" Derek asked him pulling the tie tight with his teeth.

"Well because of the cutting through the flesh, the sawing of the bone and especially the blood!" Stiles exclaimed.

"You faint at the sight of blood?" Derek asked throwing his arm down on the table.

"No but I might at the sight of a chopped off arm!" I smiled laughing quietly at Stiles' reply despite the situation we were talking about, Derek sighed loudly snapping me out of my laughter.

"Alright fine, how about this?" Derek replied glaring at Stiles. "Either you cut off my arm or I'm gonna to cut off your head"

"Okay you know, I'm so not buying your threats anymore" Stiles replied but Derek grabbed the front of his shirt and pulled him forward. "Oh my god, okay, all right, brought, sold, totally, I'll do it, I'll do it" Stiles stuttered scared now but Derek started heaving.

"Derek what's wrong?" I reached forward but before I could touch him he bent over the side of the table and threw up some type of black goo. "Oh my god Derek!"

"Holy god, what the hell is that?" Stiles asked him.

"It's my body, it is trying to heal itself" Derek replied as I rubbed his back trying not to throw up myself.

"Well it's not doing a good job of it" Stiles gagged.

"Now" Derek replied looking up at him. "You gotta do it now" he laid his head against the cool metal table and closed his eyes.

"Look honestly, I don't think I can" Stiles argued.

"Just do it!" Derek yelled at him, I stayed where I was but closed my eyes and turned my head as I heard the saw start.

"Oh my god, okay oh my god, alright here we go" I heard Stiles say as I shook in fear that he was literally about to cut off Derek's arm.

"Stiles?" I heard Scott call out making my eyes snap open.

"Scott?" Stiles asked and Scott came in his eyes widening when he saw what we'd been about to do.

"What the hell are you doing?" Scott asked us and I sighed in relief at the sight of him.

"Oh god Scott I've never been so happy to see you"

"And you just saved me a lifetime of nightmares" Stiles added.

"Did you get it?" Derek asked him, Scott reached into his pocket and handed Derek a bullet.

"What are you going to do with it?" Stiles asked him as Derek held it up and stared at it.

"I'm gonna…I'm gonna" Derek replied.

"Derek?" I asked since he sounded ready to pass out then I could only watch as he did collapsing back and dropped the bullet. "Derek!" I moved to catch him but he was dead weight so I laid him down on the ground as the bullet rolled into a drainage pipe so Scott went for the bullet as Stiles came over to me.

"Derek?" Stiles asked grabbing his head. "Derek come on, wake up!" I shared a look with Stiles as we both shook Derek.

"Derek please" I begged grabbing his shoulders and shook him.

"Scott what the hell are we gonna do!" Stiles yelled over at Scott who was trying to receive the bullet from the drainpipe.

"I don't know!" he yelled back. "I can't reach it"

"He's not waking up!" I screamed worriedly.

"I think he's dying, I think he's dead" Stiles added but I glared up at him.

"He's not dying!" I protested.

"Just hold on!" Scott replied cutting me off then went silent so I focused back on Derek.

"Derek come on you have to wake up, please you have to keep annoying me, you have to keep pressuring me to give in to my lust…my feelings" I begged leaning down to press my forehead against his and was falling to a whisper. "I swear if you open your eyes right now I'll let myself feel something for you, you just have to open your eyes and give me a chance" I felt a tear sliding down my cheek.

"I got it, I got it!" Scott yelled.

"Oh please don't kill me for this" I heard Stiles say then pushed me out of the way and punched Derek in the face and it surprisingly worked waking him up.

"Give me that" Derek said grabbing the bullet off Scott then we helped him up.

Derek bit the top of the bullet off and dumped a purplish powder onto the table then grabbed a lighter out of his pocket and lit the powder causing it to spark like a firework before producing a blue smoke.

Derek rapidly put the powder in his hand and paused for a second before putting onto his wound then pushed it down further into the wound, he began to scream and roar out in agony dropping to the floor as the powder affected him instantly and the wound began to heal before completely disappearing.

"That was awesome!" Stiles exclaimed as Derek sat up. "YES!" I rolled my eyes at Stiles because he wouldn't chop of his arm but thought that was awesome.

"Are you okay?" Scott asked.

"Well, except for the agonizing pain" Derek replied sarcastically and I laughed moving to help him stand.

"I'm guessing the ability to use sarcasm is a good sign of health" Stiles remarked and I rolled my eyes as Derek stared at Stiles angrily then removed the blue tie from his arm.

"Okay we saved your life" Scott spoke up glaring at Derek. "Which means you're gonna leave us alone, you got that and if you don't, I'm gonna go back to Allison's dad and tell him everything..."

"You're gonna trust them, you think they can help you?" I turned to Derek with a small frown.

"Well why not they're a lot freaking nicer then you and Skye are"

"Hey!" I exclaimed turning my glare on him as Derek laughed.

"Yeah I can show you exactly how nice they are" I looked up confused.

"What do you mean?" Scott asked him voicing my thoughts.

Derek didn't reply but pulled his shirt then grabbed my hand surprising the hell out of me but I didn't pull my hand away as he started walking out of the animal clinic tugging me along, Stiles drove us to Derek's to get his car then Derek drove Scott and I to the Beacons Crossing Home which was a long time care facility that was attached to the hospital.

"What are we doing here?" Scott asked getting out but Derek just kept walking so we followed him into the hospital and into a room, when we walked in I saw a man sitting in a wheelchair staring off to the side and didn't even acknowledge that we walked in.

"Who is he?" I asked looking up at Derek.

"My uncle, Peter Hale" my eyes widened as I looked back at this man, his uncle.

"Is he like you?" Scott asked cutting in so I turned to him because he seriously wasn't getting it. "A werewolf?"

"He was, now he's barely even human" Derek replied with a hint of sadness so it was me this time who grabbed his hand. "Six years ago my sister and I we're at school, our house caught fire" I frowned knowing all about this. "Eleven people we're trapped inside, he was the only survivor"

"So what makes you so sure they set the fire?" Scott asked him as I remained silent feeling guilty and let go of Derek's hand because I shouldn't be the one comforting him since I'm a hunter.

"Cause they're the only ones that knew about us" Derek replied scoffing at Scott then looked down at me as I frowned and stepped backwards towards the door.

"Then they had a reason" Scott replied causing me to freeze.

"Like what?" Derek asked him then bent down towards the man in the wheelchair. "You tell me what justifies this" he turned the wheelchair and Peter's head moved showing us the other side of his face which was covered in burns and I gasped.

"Oh my god" I looked up at Derek as he looked back at me and I showed him the remorse that suddenly washed over me but he turned back towards his uncle.

"They say they'll only kill an adult and only with absolute proof but there were people in my family that were perfectly ordinary in that fire, this is what they do and it's what Allison will do" I turned and ran out of the room and hospital without looking back but then realised I had no way of getting home so I ended up starting to walk even though it was a long walk from the hospital to my place.

I was walking along the road when it started to pour down rain, I looked up at the sky with a frown because seriously this night couldn't get any worse, I pulled my jacket closer to my body as I continued on my way thinking about everything I'd learnt tonight

I couldn't believe it to be true that the Argent's burned an entire family alive for no reason especially when they did nothing wrong and some of them had been human, had my dad been a part of it.

"Skye" I looked up and saw Derek's Camaro coasting beside me. "Get in your going to freeze to death"

"No" I argued not wanting to face him after what he just told me.

"Come on Skye"

"What is with you Derek?" I spat and watched him sigh then park and got out himself. "How can you be interested in my when I'm responsible for your family's deaths" he walked over shaking his head.

"I don't blame you Skye because it wasn't your fault, you didn't even know me back then and I didn't know you, you didn't even know about your family linage back then"

"How do you not hate me, isn't it in your nature to hate hunters, I'm a hunter Derek" he shook his head again grabbing my hands.

"Skye you know what I believe and the more I get to know you the more I believe it to be true" I cried shaking my head.

"No I can't…we can't do this, you are a werewolf Derek, I'm a hunter it'll never work"

"Skye please listen to your heart and tell me you don't want this" I looked down at my feet but he put his hand on my cheek lifting my face. "Just tell me Skye and I'll leave and never bother you again"

"Derek please…" I cried shaking my head.

"Just tell me you don't want this"

"I can't" he nodded then leaned forward and pressed his lips softly to mine, I sighed then kissed back wrapping my arms around his shoulders as his wrapped around my waist and lifted me up a little.

"This is right Skye, I know it sounds crazy but your my mate and I want to get to know you, I want us to have a chance"

"My dad will kill you" I protested shivering as the cold was finally catching up to me.

"I'm willing to risk that for you, for us" he replied smiling. "Are you?" I looked up into his eyes.

"Your not afraid?" I asked him and he laughed.

"Of course I am but I'm more afraid of not being with you now, Skye you've become everything to me, you've just got to trust me, trust us that we'll make this work because there is something here that wants us together" I sighed looking down before quickly looking up. "I like you a lot Skye so if you'll have me, I want us to try and change our futures"

"Okay" I agreed unable to fight back whatever it was inside me that knew this was right, I grabbed his jacket and pulled him back to me pressing my lips back against his and we kissed completely drenched from the rain but even that couldn't damper this moment now and could only describe it as perfect, amazing and everything I wanted right now.
