I twisted my upper body from right to left feeling my core muscles tightening and loosening and still aching from my fight with Boyd and Cora. The gentle autumn breeze brushed dead leaves around my feet as I bent down to tighten my shoelaces. I looked up to see the new twins take either side of Isaac who was also tying his shoes.

"Scott." I called to him and he was at my side. "The twins. Keep an eye on them." He nodded and Coach blew his whistle and the team took off down the dirt path. Students collided together making me lose sight of Isaac and the twins in front of me. I pushed my legs faster and snaked through the students making my way to the front of the team with Scott behind me. We soon left the rest of the team in the dust and we rounded a corner to see the twins pinning Isaac to the ground about to break his left arm.

"Ethan, I always forget how many bones in the human body?" One of the twins asked.

"I don't know." Ethan growled. "Lets count." I growled and threw my body forward, slamming my fist into Ethan's jaw as I pass him.

"That's one." I smirked at the other twin. The twins growled as their nails and canines sharpened and their eyes grew a blood neon red. Isaac and Scott joined my side as I showed my red eyes to them to let them know that I wasn't an alpha to mess with. Just as I was about to attack, a girl screamed far back on the path. Forgetting about the twins, Isaac, Scott and I raced back onto the path to the crowd that was surrounding a certain tree. We pushed ourselves to the front of the crowd to where Stiles was standing and staring at the tree. I looked and saw a teenage male blood body tied to the tree by rope around his neck. I looked more closely to what was tying the boy to the tree. It was a leather collar with a tag that read Bullet. Then I remembered. Bullet was a dog that Deaton, Scott and I treated just last night. This was his owner.

TTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

"Hey, get out of the way." A gruffly, gravely voice sounded behind the crowd and I turned to see my father, Jake, pushing his way through the crowd to get to the body. The deputy, Stiles' dad, was right behind him. "Get back. Get this area cordoned off before they trample every piece of evidence."

"Back up!" Stiles' dad ordered the students. "Everyone back!"

"Get these kids out of here!" I stepped up to my dad's side.

"Dad, just come here." I said, pulling him by the arm to the body. "Look, look. Look at it. Stiles said that the other bodies were strangled, throats slashed and a blow to the head. It's the same as the others, you see?"

"Yeah, I see that. Do me a favor. Go back to school, yeah? Coach, can you give us a hand here?"

"You heard the man." Coach yelled at the team. "Nothing to see here. Probably just some homeless kid."

"Coach." Scott called to him.

"Yeah?"

"He was a senior."

"Oh." Coach sighed with sorrow; the first time I saw him with any emotion except determination. "He wasn't on the team, was he?" A girl screamed and I turned to see a female blonde teenager come running up the hill crying.

"Kyle!" She screamed. "Oh, god, Kyle!" Stiles' dad and another officer had to restrain her as she struggle to get to her already dead boyfriend. "Oh, god!" My dad turned to me.

"Go on." He ordered. "Go." As I turned to escort my packmate, Scott and Stiles away from the scene, I saw the twins looking in confusion and fear at the body.

"You see the way the twins looked at him?" Isaac questioned us.

"Yeah, you mean like they had no idea what happened?" Stiles added.

"No, no, they knew."

"The kid was strangled with a garrote, all right? Am I the only one recognizing the lack of 'werewolfitude' in these murders?"

"Oh, you think it's a coincidence they turn up and then people start dying?"

"Well, no, but I still don't think it's them."

"Calla?" Isaac inquired, searching for support from his alpha. "How 'bout you?"

"I don't know yet." I answered.

"You don't know yet?" Stiles questioned me.

"Well, he's got a point." Stiles' jaw dropped as he stared at me in disbelief.

"I agree." Scott said. "Seriously, dude, human sacrifices?"

"Scott, Calla, your eyes turn into yellow and red glow sticks, okay? Hair literally grows from your cheeks and then will immediately disappear, and if I were to stab you right now, it would just magically heal, but you're telling me that you're having trouble grasping human sacrifices?" Scott and I exchanged looks before looking at Isaac and sighing.

"That's a good point too."

"I don't care." Isaac snapped. "They killed that kid, they killed the girl that saved me. I'm gonna kill them too." Isaac stalked off and I turned to Scott.

"Make sure he doesn't do anything stupid." I said.

"Like what?" Scott questioned me.

"Like, say, I don't know, confronting the twins by himself and getting himself killed in the process. You know, just a logical guess."

"Don't have to be sarcastic."

"Then don't ask stupid questions. Just make sure he stays out of trouble or its your ass that I'm kicking."

"Where are you going?"

"I gotta talk to Derek about the alpha situtation."

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

I walked up the staircase to the top floor to Derek's loft. I gripped the handle and pulled it open to the loft. In the middle of the loft, Derek and Cora stood face to face with looks of anger on both of their faces.

"I'm sorry, bad timing?" I asked, dropping my bag on the floor and closing the door behind him. Derek scoffed and walked away from Cora.

"You're fine, Lily." He muttered. I watched him walk away before focusing my attention on Cora as I approached her. I stopped in front of her and smiled.

"It's good to see you when you're not trying to rip my throat out."

"Sorry about that." Cora chuckled and I laughed with her.

"It's fine. My name is Callana, but you can, uh, you can call me Calla."

"Like the flower?"

"Like the flower." An alarm blared through the alarm and Derek looked towards a fuse box where a red light was flashing.

"What's that?"

"Trouble." Derek answered as the door to the loft slid open and a husky, muscular male stepped in, teeth white and sharp, red eyes glowing. He roared at us with a smirk playing across his face. Cora growled back and raced forward to fight. "No, wait. Wait!" The male alpha grabbed her by the throat and slammed her to the ground on her back, pinning her there. I ran forward to help but another alpha, female this time, appeared, kicking me back. I slid across the floor and when I finally stopped, I looked up to examine her. She was taller than average height for a woman with thin raven black hair and toffee colored skin and sharp toenails on bare feet. She swung her leg up near Derek's face attempting to scratch him but Derek caught her leg under his arm and tossed her away from him. She flipped in the air with agility and landed gracefully on the balls of her feet. She reached up to break a metal rod off a pole and I got to my feet, giving a battle cry as I leapt at her. She slammed the rod into my stomach and I fell back with a grunt. I heard a grunt come from Derek and I looked up to see the female hit him in the back causing him to fall to the floor on his stomach. The female stood over top of him and twirled the rod in her hands before slamming one end into Derek's back, making it come out through his stomach so he was pinned to the ground with the metal rod going through him. He roared in agony and I could have too.

"Derek!" I screamed. My heart literally almost stopped. My inner wolf howled with pain, with fear. I scrambled to my feet and attempted to charge at the female but when she saw me coming, she twisted the metal rod in Derek's back making him cry out again in pain and it was like his pain became my own and I collasped down in front of him on my hands and knees, tears streaming down my face as I saw the pain in his eyes as he looked up at me. "P-p-please stop! Stop!" The female just smirked as if she was enjoying the pain she was causing.

"Everybody done?" A new voice sounded and I tore my red blotched eyes away from Derek to see a man with sunglasses and a blind cane walking slowly towards us. "Cause just listening to that was exhausting." He walked over to Derek and me and knelt down beside as he broke up his cane into four seperate pieces. "So...Let's chat."

EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

"Sorry about this, Derek." The male said. "I am especially sorry to you, Callana, the urge to want to protect your alpha male must be tearing you up from the inside out." I never took my eyes away from the agony clouding Derek's face as the pool of his blood touched my fingertips. "I did ask Kali to be gentle, but-"

"This is me being gentle." Kali retorted as she twisted the metal rod again. Derek groaned and I whimpered as another set of tears scratched my face. I looked behind Derek to see Cora still pinned under the alpha male's weight.

"Let her go." I demanded. Deucalion flicked his fingers at the alpha and he stepped off of Cora and she started to make her way over to her older brother but I shook my head at her to warn her to stay back, not wanting her to get hurt again. "No."

"See?" Deucalion said. "We're not unreasonable."

"What do you want?" Derek asked, struggling to find the breath to form the words.

"Do you understand the concept of ranking wolf packs? Its the alpha male and alpha female then the beta underneath them with the low ranking or lone wolves known as omegas. But though the alpha male and alpha female may be mated together, it's the alpha female who's really in charge. Females are trained to be the leaders while the males are trained to protect and carry out orders for the females. Hence why alpha females are stronger than the alpha males only on the full moons. Point being, I'm not here to talk to you, Derek, I'm here to talk to Callana."

"What do you want then?" I restated Derek's question, my teeth grinding together as I found Derek's eyes again. "You want to kill me? Kill Derek?"

"You really think I'm that boring? Don't throw me in with sociopaths like Derek's uncle. I'm a man with far more vision than simple murder. In fact...I'm here to show you just how much vision a blind man can have." I looked up at the Deucalion and saw his eyes blood red but they were no pupils and it was more like a milky blood red instead of neon.

NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN

Black blood began to drip from Derek's mouth as his body tried to heal the wound. He groaned and coughed up more black blood as Kali tilted the rod slightly to the right. I growled in frustration that I wasn't able to do anything to help Derek.

"You're killing him!" Cora shouted.

"Not yet, little sister." Kali taunted her. "But I could." Derek kept coughing up black blood until its own pool started mixing with his blood. "Who knows if it's five minutes or five hours before its too late to take this thing out?" She moved the rod left and right, back and forth, causing Derek pain in any which way she could. I growled again.

"Stop it!" I shouted at her.

"Fine, just to be on the safe side, Duke, you might want to get to the point."

"Now you see the one problem with being in an alpha pack." Deucalion continued his lecture. "Everybody wants to make the decisions."

"If alpha females are supposedly the leaders of the pack then how come you seem to be running this alpha pack instead of Kali here?" I questioned him, struggling to keep my temper.

"Kali knows when its time to take charge and when its time to step down to let someone else lead. Me? I'm more about discovering new talents...like you."

"Not interested."

"But you haven't even heard my pitch."

"Then get on with it!" Kali slammed the rod to the left and Derek moaned in pain.

"Watch that temper of yours, Callana dear. It could get you in trouble."

"I'm not killing my own pack."

"Oh, I wouldn't want you to. See, as I'm sure you experienced it already, alpha females have too strong of an instinct to protect their packmates at all costs."

"Derek's not killing them either."

"No. I want him to kill one of them. Do that, and I won't have to ask him to kill the others. He'll do it on his own. I did it. Ennis did. Kali did. Tell him what it's like, Kali, to kill one of your own."

"Mm..." Kali moaned with satisfactory as she remembered. "Liberating."

"Listen to me, Callana. Do you really want to stay beholden to a couple of maladjusted teenagers bound to become a liability? And believe me, they will become a liability. In fact...I have a feeling one of them is getting himself into trouble right now."

"Dammit, Isaac." I breathed.

WWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW

Derek's head drooped lower with loss of blood and his arms looked like they were going to collasp underneath him at any second now.

"See, the reason I'm always invested in new talent is simple." Deucalion said. "We all know a pack is strongest due to its individual parts. The stronger the individual parts, the greater the whole. When I lost my sight, one of my betas assumed I wasn't fit for my role anymore. He tried to take it from me. Killing him taught me something about alphas I didn't know they could do. His power was added to mine. I became stronger, faster, more powerful than I'd ever been. I tested this new ability to subsume the power of your own by killing another one. In fact, Callana, I killed them all. I took the individual parts and became a greater individual whole." Deucalion reached out for Derek's head and grabbed a handful of his dark thick hair to lift his face up. I growled and my muscles tensed, ready to leap for an attack. He ran his hands down Derek's face, feeling every inch of it before letting go of his hair and his head drooped again. "You're right, Kali, he looks like his mother." Deucalion stood back up and walked behind me. "You'll get to know me, Callana. Like Derek's mother did."

"I know did." Derek gasped. "I know what you are. You're a fanatic."

"Know me? You've never seen anything like me. I am the alpha of alphas. I am the apex of apex predators! I am death, destroyer of worlds! I am the demon-wolf!" Kali pulled the rod out of Derek and he fell to the ground without even trying to stop himself. Deucalion took Kali's arm and she guided him out of the loft with Ennis behind them. I rolled Derek onto his back and took his head into my lap.

"Oh, God, Derek, you lost a lot of blood." I cried, running my hands through his dark hair.

"I'll heal. I'm fine." He breathed.

"You don't look fine." He looked up at me with his green brown eyes as a tear drip from my left eye.

"You still owe me a kiss." I looked at him in confusion.

"What for?"

"School. Full moon. Boiler room." I remembered and laughed.

"How could I have possibly forget?" I leaned down and softly pressed my lips to his soft, lustfup lips. He happily opened up for me and our tongues connected to form a frenzy dance. I pulled away from him and pressed my forehead to his.

"I love you." I let out a weak laugh, choking on tears as I cupped his face in my hands.

"I love you, too."

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

I woke up with a start and my eyes flicked left and right as I tried to register where I was. I quickly relaxed when I realized that I had fallen asleep in Derek's loft. I started to turn onto my left side to look at Derek who should be resting and healing but stopped when I saw him leaning against a wall and staring out the window that overlooked Beacon Hills. I got up and rubbed my eyes and staggered over to Derek. Wrapping my arms around his torso, I pressed my cheek into his back and leaned against him, inhaling the scent that came off him in heat waves.

"How are you feeling?" I murmured, running my hands up and under his shirt to feel his now smooth, rock hard stomach.

"Better." He answered. "You?"

"I wasn't the one who got stabbed through the abdomen by a metal rod, remember?" He let out a small chuckle.

"How could I forget?"

"You should be resting."

"Couldn't sleep."

"Then you should have woke me."

"You looked so peaceful. I didn't think I could handle the torture of waking you from that." I laughd and rubbed my cheek against his back, sighing.

"Come back to bed."

"I won't be able to sleep."

"I can probably think of a few things to help you sleep." He turned around in my arms and pulled me closer as I placed my palms on his firm chest. He leaned down and grabbed my lips between his, forcefully taking a kiss and breath away from me. He pushed me back onto the bed and fell on top of me, his lips trailing down to my neck, his canines barely scraping my skin and making me shudder with pleasure. I pushed him away from me and tore my shirt off over my head and tossed it onto the floor, my pants, bra and underwear following it. Derek took that free time to take of his clothes too. I pulled him back to me and planted kisses on his neck, and bit his earlobes gently. I kissed his chest, while his hands entangled themselves in my hair.

"Lily..." I glanced up at him and gave him a wicked grin. I brought myself back up to Derek's lips and kissed him, only stopping to gasp for air. His right hand trailed down my side and didn't hesitate to grab my mound. I gasped for air and moaned, falling back onto the bed. I lifted my hands to place on his collarbone but he grabbed them in his left hand and held them above my head. I whimpered in disappointment but the whimper turned into a moan as his middle finger flicked my clit.

"Derek, please." He snickered and let go of my hands as he leaned down to kiss my stomach before kissing each leg and attacking my clit with his tongue. My hips involuntarily jerked up as my fingers laced themselves into his thick hair, pulling him closer. My breath hitched in my throat as I forgot how to breathe when the sensation in my core grew deeper and stronger. My toes curled as I moaned louder than before, my fingernails scraping Derek's scalp. Derek lifted his head and I took my chances and pushed him off me to have him roll on his back and I quickly climbed on top of him. I smirked down at him, my white blonde hair draping to the side of my head like a curtain. He leaned up to mash his lips to mine again, our bodies pressed firmly together. Hands roaming hotly over skin, the two of us kissed each other with hungry desperation, and I moaned softly into his mouth when I felt the bulge on his erection against my wetness. God, I wanted him and I wanted him now. Canting my head back, I let him trail a path of heated kisses down the base of my neck. "Derek..." I whispered, my voice practically a groan, and he was quick to catch my lip between his teeth, sucking it into his mouth as he grabbed my hips in his hands, lifting me up and slowly lowering me down onto him. Our lips began to move in a slower, passion fueled dance as I arched my body against his, giving a roll of my hips downward and gasping quietly when he bucked up into me in response. Clutching his shoulder, I gave another roll of my hips before starting to ride him, and Derek moaned in response beneath me, moving his lips fervently with mine in a fashion that would leave our lips swollen later. Quickly moving his body in time with mine, driving his erection deep into my slick folds, I felt Derek smike lightly against my lips when he heard me whimper in appreciation, my grip on him tightening. We continued to accelerate the pace of our movements until we were both flying high with pleasure. My nails dug into Derek's back, breaking the skin as I cried out as my orgasm hit. Moaning with his own release, he clutched my hips tightly, his grip slowly loosening as I calmed on his lap, my head pillowed on his shoulder as I gasped for breath and Derek fell back down onto the bed. "Bet that made you tired." He laughed breathlessly, his arms winding around my body and I felt myself drift into a blissfully welcome sleep.
