Chapter 2 – meeting the pack

It should have been a normal day in Beacon Hills for Deaton. After all it was quite for the last year, besides some minor incidents. But nothing that wasn't doable. So he didn't think that something would happen as the door to his clinic opens. But as soon as he sees Alexa, who he had met some years ago, with two young ones, who look like werewolves to him, he knew that the quite time was over. She was the protector after all and many, who knew of her, want her dead after all. Until now not many knew that she walked the earth again, but her arrival will stir some things up.

That is why it took him some time to find his countenance again, after he saw her. "What are you doing here?" he asks her and takes a closer look at her. She was exhausted, something must have happened.

Without trying to wake the little girl, she says in a small voice. "I think hunters got my parents, but I don't know more. I only followed the protocol, we established should something happen."

That is so not good. "Ok, I will look what I can find out."

A small smile starts on her face. "Thank you. But can you let us in and let us stay for some time so we can rest a little bit." He has to break the mountain ash circle so that they can enter. Normally she would break it on her own, but with two kids on her side, who need her, it is better to let someone else do it.

"Of course." with that he opens the door to let them in. "But I only have small couch here." he tells her.

"Not a problem." she wouldn't let the kids out of her side anyway and as werewolves, pack cuddling is part of the deal. With a nod in acknowledgment, he leads her to his office. They follow him without a word. As soon as she sees the couch, she knew that she will have a little rest for now, because she trusts Deaton to keep her save. "I hope it is ok, if I take a short nap, before we talk?" she asks him as she takes a seat at the couch with one kid on either side of her.

"Of course Alexa." he answers. She smiles at him, before she closes her eyes and finally lets the exhaustion win over. For a moment he watches her, before he acts. It is a good thing that she takes a nap. That gives him time to find out, what happened and to get Scott, because he knows that she will need all the help she can get. Alike as the protector of Beacon Hills he needs to know that trouble is on the horizon.

It is a good thing that the whole pack is home in Beacon Hills at the moment. So he lets the little family sleep and steps in his examination room, takes out his phone and calls Scott. It took some rings before he picks up. "McCall." he answers.

"Scott it is Deaton." he says.

"What is it?" he asks curious, he could apparently hear the nervousness in the druids voice.

"I need you at the clinic, something come up." he tells him.

"What exactly?"

With a sigh he answers. "Nothing that can or should be explained over the phone."

"Ok." was Scott's answer, he dealt with Deaton for a long time now and if the druid thinks it is better to do it in person, he would follow his lead.

"Thanks." he answers, but before Scott can hang up he adds. "I think it would be best if you bring the pack with you."

"Ok, we will be there in an hour."

"Good." with that Deaton hangs up and walks to his laptop. He starts his search for happenings in Vienna that would explain, why Alexa was in his clinic now. It didn't take him long until he found the first articles about the brutal, ritualistic murder of Alexa parents. There is also is a BOLO out for Alexa and the two kids. The girl apparently is Alexa's daughter and the boy her brother. But they have to be adopted; because the last time he saw her, which was four almost five years ago, he hasn't met them and she wasn't pregnant at that time.

The information he gathered from the articles tell him that it has to be hunters, so her instincts were right. Now she officially is on their radar, so not good. It was a bold move, because Alexa parents were normal humans and for them being killed like that is a step to far, that will lead to so many problems in the future.

After that he tried to contact the Circle members, who live in Vienna, they were the teachers of Alexa. But he couldn't reach a single one of them and there were at least five, he knew who lived there. So he searched the Austrian media for information about them and it turned out that they were murdered as well.

While Deaton was researching Alexa was sleeping for a while. But Sarah having a nightmare woke her up. She was crying in her sleep, it doesn't happen that often anymore, like it did in the beginning after her family was killed it. After all at the time, it got better. But it still broke Alexa's heart to see her like that in stressful situations like being on the run. That always brings back the bad memories. "Shh, baby. Everything is alright. I got you. Nothing will happen to you." she whispers in her ear while she takes her in her arms.

After Sarah calmed down again and kept on dreaming Alexa gave her a kiss on the forehead and does the same to David. He was her son, like she was her daughter, even if not in blood, but in spirit. Carefully not to wake either one of them she got up to freshen up a little bit. Only a moment after Alexa was gone Sarah woke up and looks around. She knew her Mom is still around, she wouldn't let her alone, alike she still can feel her through their bond. But this new environment was still scary to her. Her nose also tells her that they weren't the first weres to come to this place.

As Sarah looks around to get a feel for everything she hears the door open and several people coming in. Nervous, she wakes her uncle, who was more like a brother to her. "David, wake up." It took him some moments to come around and fight against sleep. Before he asks anything, she says. "Come on." with that she walks to where she hears the voices coming from. She always was the more adventurous of the two of them and David always followed her. She is a born leader on the other hand David walks behind her to have her back, to protect her better, she is his little sister after all.

A moment later she walks into a big room, there were now several people standing beside the man, who let them in. The others were all something supernatural Sarah's senses tell her that. One of the boys said. "So what is it Deaton?"

But before he can answer that, Sarah got the attention of the whole room as she walks up to a big, somehow broody guy and says. "Daddy." He was a werewolf like her and her inner wolf is telling her, that this man will be important to her. In an instance she formed a parental bond with him. She wasn't the only one, but David isn't so open with new people in his life, like her, especially adults. So he hides it for now.

The adults look surprised at her as she called Derek Hale, of all people, Daddy. Derek only thought about it for a moment before he gets down on one knee to be on the little girls eye level and asks. "Hey cub, who are you?" His father called him cub as he was a child and Derek always knew that he would call his children that. To call this girl cub come naturally to him, it doesn't even feel wired, because it feels like his wolf knows her without really knowing her.

"I am Sarah, Daddy." she calls him again.

Derek doesn't know why, but he knew that this little girl couldn't be his daughter; she doesn't smell like him, but still was familiar. At the same time his wolf wants to claim this little girl as his cub and protect her. Bonds between werewolves are really something fascinating. "And where is your Mom, cub?" he asks, because he knows that this girl couldn't appear out of no-where.

That is the moment all the supernatural beings hear a door in back of the clinic open and close. "She will be here in a moment." she tells him, before she steps to him so that she can whisper in his ear, she wants that only he hears what she has to say. For that she put his arms around his neck. "Be nice to Mommy, she doesn't trust easily."

He doesn't know why she tells him that, but he hears in the little girl's voice that is important to her, so he answers. "Ok, cub." Instinctively he gives her a kiss on the forehead.

That is the moment Alexa steps into the room again. It took her a moment to take all the people in, until her eyes fell on her little girl standing beside a grown man with her hands around his neck. A growl escaped her, as she steps to him, puts her hands on her hips and says. "Can you tell me why you are in such a position with my daughter?" Her voice was hard and as a mother, who is protecting her cub, her eyes started to glow to show the man that she will be a threat to him. She doesn't normally show her eyes that easily, it makes her easier to be recognized. But the protection of Sarah and David always comes before herself.

As Derek heard the growl he looks up at the woman, who walked into the room. Never before in his life has a woman affected him like her, his heartbeat picked up and he literally caught his breath in his throat. She was beyond beautiful to him with her red, curly hair, her short figure with delicate features and stunning eyes. At the same time he also realized the threat to his life, because never underestimated a female werewolf protecting her cub. Not that she smells really like a werewolf to him, like the girl does, her smell was different, but also familiar. She has to be something supernatural. He hears her question, but it were her glowing green eyes that captured him, they reminded him of something.

Before he can start thinking about it Sarah lets go of him. His inner wolf almost protests that the girl steps away from his protective circle to tell her mother. "Mom its ok that's Daddy."

Normally it isn't easy to surprise Alexa and that is saying something considering she is part of the supernatural world and many things are possible in this world. But that her little girl calls this unknown man, who somehow felt familiar Daddy threw her a curve ball. "What?" was her stunned question and Sarah simply repeated the same. It still doesn't make any sense to her. "Baby, come here and show me!" she tells her. Another thing she normally wouldn't do with an audience, but she knows that her daughter doesn't do things without a reason. She was way too smart and perceptive for that, even with only being four years old.

Sarah knew what her Mom wants, so steps in front of her and holds out her hand. Alexa takes her hand and closes her eyes to establish a connection with her girls sub consciousness. It took her a moment to find what she was looking for. The bonds the girl has established until now are interesting to her. There was now a fifth one, which is new, besides the bonds to her, her parents or her brother. Alexa knows which bond symbolizes whom. Hers was by far the brightest with the new one not far behind, meaning that is also parental bond.

With a gasp she breaks the connection and says. "Wow."

Everyone looks at her and asks themselves what she was doing, short of Derek, he was thinking about the color of her eyes and after some serious thinking he found, what he was looking for. "Oh my god, you are the protector." He says and looks at the girl, at the same time as Deaton asks. "Are you ok, Alexa?"

Of course someone has to know who I am, Alexa thought to herself. But she tries to lighten the mood a little bit. "I hate it when that happens." She is a film freak and loves to quote movies. After a moment she answers Deacons question. "Don't worry I just made a Vulcan mind meld with Sarah to learn why she calls him." she points at the broody werewolf, who was quite cute not that she was looking for something or someone. "Daddy." She looks in his eyes as she says. "Turns out my daughter formed a parental bond with you within seconds and the bond is almost as strong as mine. Before you ask why, I don't know, but I learnt that it sometimes better to accept things without questioning them."

Now it was Derek's world that was upside down, because he knows how bonds between werewolves work. They were established because of the littlest things and stay that way almost forever. Only something severe can break them, like death. With a deep sigh he thought to himself, 'Looks like I have a daughter to protect.' But it was his wolf that answered. 'Don't forget her mother and the other cub.' That surprised him that his wolf would want her mother in his life as well, he can't fandom why, well he will work it out later. He also saw the small young boy who protectively hovered behind the little girl and her beautiful mother, Derek felt connected to him as well. Something important is going here, but he doesn't have a clue what.

"Your powers have grown, since we last met. What else can you do now?" Deaton concludes and is curious at the same time, because that can't be all.

With a smile on her face, that doesn't reach her eyes she answers. "Yeah, sucks to be me. But to answer your question I have deeper connection to the supernatural now, so that I found beings before they find me now." he looks skeptical at her. She wasn't offend by it, on the contrary it was his duty as a druid to question everything, only this way new ways to fight something can be established.

"That is why I know that she is a banshee and man she is the most powerful one I met until now." she points at a beautiful strawberry blond, who holds hand with a scrawny kid, who doesn't look like much, but don't let the cover misguide you. "He on the other hand is a spark, a powerful one." But at a closer looks she learns something that surprises and angers her. So she looks back at Deaton and asks in a hard voice. "But he is untrained, he should be trained, why isn't he trained?" Both mentioned persons ask themselves the same question, who is that woman and is she a threat to them, to the pack.

Deaton has to smile at her, she hasn't changed one bit she still doesn't hold back. If something bothers her she points it out, mostly with the sledgehammer method. "Yeah I know, but he doesn't want to be one, he wants to be human."

Alexa turns back to the young man, who can't be older than her. "Get over yourself. If I don't have a choice, you don't have one either."

"Hey …" he protests.

But Derek was the only one besides Deaton, who knows who and what she is, stops him with his hand on his shoulder. "Don't Stiles." to give his statement more weight he shows his beta eyes. Even with him not being the alpha, he still has something to say in the pack. No wonder, considering he is second in command together with Stiles, because he still has more experience than all of them with the supernatural. It will be this way until the moment Scott gets his head out of his ass and mates with Malia completely. After a year together he still thinks it is too soon.

Stiles knows all that and that is the reason, why he accepts the command from the sourwolf without anything. "Ok … for now." he says after a moment.

Instead of Derek it was Alexa, who answered. "Don't worry we will talk about it, alone, face to face, later." That was a promise. He needs to know, what can happen, if he wouldn't train now that his spark is active. But to show off a little bit, she goes on with a glance at the other beautiful woman in the room and says. "She on the other hand is a were-coyote the mate of this one." she points at Scott. "An alpha, but a special one, a true alpha." While she talks her brain makes the necessary connections. As she understands what her mind is telling her, she looks accusingly at Deaton. "You hooked me up with the McCall pack are you crazy. I have to be hidden, which is a problem in itself, because every supernatural being is drawn to me like a moth to the flame. But bringing me up with them almost screams 'hunters here I am, come and get me."

"You need protection and they are the best option for you, so that you can fulfill your responsibility's." he tells her in a hard voice.

"I am not ready for that. I still need training." was her answers.

He shakes his head. "That is not true. You were ready four years ago as I met you last, so you are now. … But you are still afraid."

In a moment of weakness she lets all her barriers fall and yells at him the secret that no-one knows. "You would be to; if you know that you will die in this fight." After she let that slip she hears a soft growl from her baby girl and son. She falls to her knees and takes them in her arms to calm them. "Shh, babies, everything is alright." She could slap herself for saying that in front of the kids, her kids, they are her responsibility. But she is too exhausted, stressed and overwhelmed at the moment to think clearly.

To hear her say that made Derek's heart ache, he doesn't want her to die. His inner wolf is pacing inside of him and ready to defend her against the rest of the world. In her eyes he can see that she didn't want to reveal that. But it is too late. It happened. But he has to help her and them. He smells her exhaustion and knows that it only takes moments before she collapses. Listening to his gut, he answers to her outburst, before anyone can. "Do you have a place to stay?"

"No, why?" she asks.

He kneeled down to the little packs level and says. "You look exhausted and need sleep, the kids as well." he points at the little ones. "So for now you stay with me." he doesn't voice it like a question or a statement, but as a fact and he will not accept no for an answer.

They both look in each other eyes for real for the first time since they are in the same room and see recognition in them. Then it clicked for them. "Derek?" she asks at the same time as he said. "Alexa?"
