White Lilies

Chapter Ten: Murderous Rampage

Another shorty plus one more

"Good afternoon Scott. Do you need help with something?" She was getting ready to pack up her things and get ready to go home but Scott strolled into her class.

He looked around nervously before he closed the door to her class, it alarmed her a bit but she kept her cool. "Ms. Laurel I think I should really tell you about that guy you're seeing."

"Oh alright, have a seat Scott. you guys have been anxious since the first day you guys saw him in my class. I'm very interested in what you have to say." She sat back down in her chair and Scott pulled up a chair to her desk, he sat down and fiddled with his fingers. "Are you alright Scott?"

"Yeah, I'm just trying to word this right without freaking you out." He took in a deep breath and exhaled loudly. "Peter isn't what he seems to be, he is a murder."

"How so?"

"Please trust me Ms. Laurel, you don't know him how I know him."

"No, I don't but enlighten me Scott. How do you know him?"

"We're like brothers, to make things easier."

Laurel leaned in with a mysterious smile plastered on her face, "Do you want me to make it easy for you?"

"How could you? You have no idea what's going on."

"Scott... I can smell a werewolf a mile away. So you can cut to the chase, I'm pretty sure you don't want to be in school longer than you need to be."

"How-You-I" His sentence came out in a jumble of words that made her hard to understand him. She got up and turned to the board writing tomorrow's lesson on the board. "How do you know?"

"I dated Peter when I was a little bit younger than you. We dated for about 3 years before I left Beacon Hills and I didn't see him for 18 years, at least responsive Peter. Of course Peter back then isn't Peter now, I could see how much he has changed over the years. I always knew how dangerous he was but I never knew the extent he would go to. When Stiles mentioned Peter almost killed him the other day I was concerned. So explain to me how you really know him."

"Well, last year he lured Laura back to Beacon Hills and he murdered her to become Alpha. Then he bit me and I turned into a werewolf. Afterwards, he went on a murdering spree killing anyone who could have a connection to the Hale fire that killed his family. Turns out that Kate Argent was behind it all, so he killed her and Derek killed him for Alpha status." He paused and read the board, "Seize the moment?" He read out the words she had written on the board with a confused tone. "I don't understand."

"Let me put you in his shoes Scott." She stilled had her back turned to the boy as she spoke in a soft motherly voice. "When he was 19 the only person he truly loved left him without any notice. Then his whole family died in a fire leaving him and a few survivors alive. He was in a comatose state where he couldn't respond or take care of himself for 6 years. In his mind he could only replay the visions of his family burning and dying before him, helpless and lonely. All that anger that built up since he was 19 and the chance to release it all he took it. I mean I don't agree with his choice but I understand where he is coming from."

"I never saw it that way, I mean I just saw a murder on the lose and he dated my mother to get to me." She flinched and snapped the dry marker in half with her fingers. Scott shot up to his feet and stared at his teacher's claws, "You're not human either."

"That I am not," She retracted her claws and exhaled slowly calming down all the way. "Let's keep that a secret between us though. You said he was killed though."

"He planned out how he was going to come back already. Lydia was bitten and became a banshee and she basically brought him back under a full moon."

"Of course he would plan his resurrection." She turned to him and watched the little alpha sit back down, his gaze didn't break with hers. "How did it work out for you?"

"What do you mean?"

"You were given the bite and your body accepted it. How much of a transformation did you go through?"

"It was hard at first, I didn't understand what was going on and Derek was stalking me for the longest time slowly teaching me. I learned how to control it but lately..."

"Lately..." She repeated curiously after the boy.

"We unlocked something terrible in our minds. It altered the way we do things; I can barely control my wolf side anymore. I'm scared that it will take over and-"

"Murderous rampage? I had those moments before when I first turned. I had a thirst for deer blood for a few months. Peter wasn't too pleased about it, he was always saying it wasn't sanitary or something to that effect. I guess you would just have to start over and relearn it. Baby steps Scott, you're a true Alpha or so I heard, you can overcome this. By the way is that why Stiles and Allison has been a little off in class?" She saw him nod his head and she frown while looking at her watch. "Alright my dear, it has been an hour since school ended and I know I gave you enough homework to last you a year. You should get home to your mother."

"Alright and Ms. Laurel, sorry for pestering you about him."

"You thought it was best, it's fine. You'll be surprise how understanding I really am. By the way Scott, keep an eye on Peter for me. I'm scared he is going to do something we both regret."

"Peter? He went to Mexico with Derek to get something."

"I see, well keep an eye on him when he gets back plus we can keep everything that happened here today a secret or I'll make Peter's murdering spree look like child's play."

"You can be quite scary if you wanted to Ms. Laurel."

"Of course, I dated Peter Hale, remember that." She waved off the boy as he left her classroom, a soft click signaled the door was shut and she stood there thinking to herself. "That boy isn't safe around him." She knew Peter and that's all the reasons she needed to be scared.
