Sorry I know it's been a while but Exams and stuff you know?


A growl separates the group of teens. " Does the Alpha get a say in this?!"Derek snarls.

The group roll their eyes, only Isaac having the decency to look apologetic.

Stiles wants to laugh at Dereks permanently angry face, but he thinks he's met his quota on Dereks threats for the day. He moves to stifle his giggle with his hand. But his hands not moving. He realizes that he is still holding candy's hand. He looks down at it puzzled, He has never held a girls hand and been this comfortable, drawing the attention of the rest of the group." er.. Sorry" He says to candy blushing.

Awkwardly He tries to remove his hand but she grips it ,not wanting to let it go,with a questioning look on her face. He smiles down at her and brushes her hair out of her face. He wonders why he is so confident around her, he hardly knows her . He never felt this way about Lydia, always acted the bumbling fool.

She wonders how She can trust him. She has never been able to trust anyone, not since... Candy frowns, troubled thinking about the past.

It's a while before anyone realises thatno-ones answered derek. Not that he expects them to, they are too busy watching this scene, even he is distracted by it, half confused that Stiles is not panicking that an attractive girl willingly wants to hold his nerdy hand, and half annoyed that his alpha status never makes Stiles listen to him! But that's never going to change.

" Fine. But I'm not looking after her, and don't come to me when you're injured by her." Derek exclaims. he runs off into he darkness. The pack don't even watch him leave.

CANDY POV:

Well this is a strange development. Here I was thinking the witch had lied about a way to break the curse, but I can feel it. And maybe Stiles can too? It's like electricity between us drawing us closer. When my hands in his the beast feels calm, free, gone, It's been too long since it's just been me. Maybe he can help me get free! Maybe I don't have to do this alone. It would help to get some control with a pack and I know that now I've met him I can't not try!

" guys it's late, I've got some pizza in the freezer, want to come in. I do bite, but you do too! " I laugh hopeful that for the first time in months I could be free!

The boys in the pack rush past me into the house at the mention of food. Their Werewolves for goodness sake. Don't they hunt?

I beckon the girls into the house. The girls are obviously more sensible. The red head shouts abuse at her boyfriend and I laugh at his tail between the legs look.I never let go of stiles' hand, scared that once second without it will make the beast come back.

I press back against the sofa in the livingroom where all the pack are. Where my future could be.

Everyone lapses into silence expectantly. Erica looks to me and asks the question I've been dreading...

" How did you become a lioness?"
