Claudia POV.
It had been a week since, the incident with the desert wolf happened and everything was explained to me. And for once in my life, I felt worthless, un-needed. Everyone had some form of supernatural power bar me, even my own twin sister.
I had no glowing eyes, or super claws, or fangs, or voices in my head.
I had nothing.
I couldn't help people, I couldn't do anything.
"Claud?" I hear my dad asks, as he walks into the kitchen
I lift my head up and face him, "Hey dad"
"What's up angel?"
"I just feel useless, I have nothing"
Dad nods in understandment, "I know how you feel bub, I'm in the same postion as you"
"Does it get easier?"
"Of course it does, everything always does"
I give him a small smile and kiss his check before standing up, "Thanks dad!"
Dad chuckles, "Alright kiddo, well I've got to work so I'll see you soon"
"Bye deputy!"
My eyes widen as I hear a loud crash from upstairs, I quickly grab a knife from the cultery rack.
"Hello?" I call out warily.
I was all alone, Allison was at the library, Mum was teaching a lecture and Dad just left.
Loud footsteps echo the upstairs hallway.
Anxiety plumets through my veins.
Just breathe, Claud.
Hesitantly, I take a step forward and another one.
More steps echo, my eyes widen massively.
"Claudia?"
I let out a sigh of relief.
"TATE!" I shriek, "I COULD OF STABBED YOU!"
Tate chuckles, as he comes running down the steps.
"W-Why did you climb through the window?!"
The dark brown haired boy shrugs, "Was feeling adventurous"
Once my nerves calm down, I reach forward and slap his shoulder.
"Anyways what our you doing here?"
"I just wanted to check, that you where okay with everything"
"I'm fine" I lie, "Why wouldn't I be?"
"You know, I can tell when you're lying right"
My eyes narrow, "Why do you care in the first place?"
"Because we're friends!" Tate snaps.
I roll my eyes, "Friends or not, you can't just climb into my house just to ask if I was okay!"
"Why are you getting so annoyed?"
"WHY ARE YOU PESTERING ME?!" I hiss loudly, as I step forwards towards him.
A gasp escapes, Tate's lips.
"What?" I ask impatiently.
The beta points his finger out, my eyeline follows his finger. A freshly lit candle stood in-front of me.
"Was that lit before?" I ask suddently.
Tate shakes his head, "No it happened, when you started getting angry"
"I-I don't like this"
"Get angry again"
I shake my head, "I can't just get any like that"
"Try"
"I need something to make me angry"
"Remember that one time we had sex, I may of told the whole of the lacrosse team"
WHAT?!
The anger burns so deep in my stomach, that I feel my ears become red.
"YOU DID WHAT?!" I shout loudly, as I wave my hands dramatically.
My eyes widen, as the dirty dishes from one side of the room, fly towards the other.
I'm frozen in my spot.
"H-How are you doing this?"
Tears burn my eyes, "I don't know"
Tate eyes me up warily, "Maybe, you shoud sit down"
I nod and slowly sit down, "By the way, d-did you really tell people?"
"No, you where my first, that's important to me. You're important to me"
"But not in that way?" I ask, half of me filled with disapointment.
Tate chuckles, "Come on, Claud. Me and you would never work like that"
I nod, trying to fight back tears, "I know"
..
Paige POV.
My eyebrows furrow together as I hear a crunch from the leaves behind me. I had been going on my usual afternoon jog, and I just had an off feeling.
I whip my head around quickly and see a boy stood there, his hair was a dark brown colour and was put in a quiff.
"Do I know you?" I ask, as I turn fully to face him.
The boy shakes his head, "No but I know you, daughter of Derek Hale"
Who was this boy? And how did he know my name?
I sniff subconciously, he wasn't like me. He was deffiantly supernatural but I couldn't put my finger on it.
"I want to know who are you are, and I want to know now"
"I'm called T.J"
My eyebrows knit further together, "T.J what?"
"Raeken"
Raeken? For some reason, that name felt familiar.
"Why where you following me?"
"I want in on your pack"
I shake my head, "I don't have a pack"
"No, not yet. But you have four werewolves, two of which decendants from alphas, you've got a banshee"
"So you have been watching us" I note, as I step forward as my eyes narrow.
"I want a pack"
"Well we aren't one"
"Yes, but I can make you one"
"Listen here, I don't know what you are but we aren't becoming a pack, and you sure of hell aren't going to make us one!"
T.J steps forward, "I'm sorry, if I've creeped you out but I've heard wonder stories about your parents"
I nod, "Well they aren't about us"
"Not yet anyway" The boy muses.
I cock my eyebrow up at him, "What even are you? I can't catch you scent"
T.J shrugs and steps forwards, "I'm whatever you want me to be"
I quickly grab his neck, "I want you, to tell me what the hell you are"
"I'm a kamina"
"Then why don't you just paralyse me? I'm pratically strangling you"
"Because, I've learnt you've got to be nice otherwise you don't make friends"
"Well I don't want to be your friend"
"Why do you want to be more?" T.J asks, before giving me a wink.
I growl, before throwing him onto the floor.
"Stop following me and my friends!" I hiss before walking away.
My eyes widen as I feel a figure collide into mine, hands grab my shoulders and settle me.
I look up and see Jace stood there, "Paige?"
I shake my head, "Someones following us, this boy. He wants to be part of us"
"Part of what?"
"He thinks we're a pack and he wants in"
"Is he like us?"
I shake my head, "No he's a kamina"
Jace chuckles slightly, "I'm not letting a kamina into our none existence pack, they could paralyse us in a second and leave us for dead"
"Has Tate heard anymore from the desert wolf?"
The attractive boy shakes his head, "Not that I'm aware of"
"It's just odd, the minuet she turns up. So does this boy he wants to be part of our pack"
"I'm sure it's a concidence" Jace says reassuringly.
I nod, "I hope so"
..
Allison POV.
I sigh loudly, as I begin packing up my things from the library. How I wished, I interhited my mums incredibly high GPA. But sadly know, I was just average.
I grimace slightly, as I walk outside and see that it was already turning dark.
Damn, I knew I should of brought the car.
It's fine though, it's all good.
It's only a ten minuet walk, if that.
"Allison?" A voice calls out, an unfamiliar voice as well.
I turn my head around and see a boy with brown hair and bright blue eyes stood there.
"E-Excuse me?"
"Hi, I'm T.J Raeken"
My eyes narrow, as I take a step back, "L-Leave me alone"
"What's wrong?"
"Y-Your dad, drove my mother out of her mind" I say quitely as I take another tep backwards.
T.J grimaces, "I'm nothing, like him I promise. That's why I've come here to live with my grandparents"
I shake my head, "I-I don't believe you"
"Just give me a chance"
I look at him suspciously, "Why? What do you want?"
"I want in on a pack"
"Well, I don't know one" I say as I begin to turn away, but a hand grabs my wrist roughly causing me to wince.
"See you all keep saying this, but there's no way in hell you'd have all these supernatural people around and no pack"
I attempt to shrug out of his grip, "I'm sorry but I'm telling the truth"
His grip tightens, causing blood to begin slowly pouring out of my arm, I cry out in pain.
"Hey, what's going on?!" A familiar voice calls out causing relief, to rush through me.
I turn my head and see Kaleb coming towards me.
"Nothing, just asking Ally here about all the good sights in town"
Kaleb growls when he looks at me wrist, his eyes flash gold, as claws and fangs begin to form.
"Then why is she bleeding?"
"She fell over"
I turn too look at T.J with narrowed eyes, but the threatening look in his makes me cower.
"Y-Yeah I did" I mumur.
My curly haired neighbour nods but looks unconvinced, "Listen, I don't care who the hell you are. But if I found out that you hurt her than I'm going to tear you apart, limb by limb"
T.J chuckles, "See, I've been following you two around for weeks, and all you tend to do is bicker but I guess that's how you show you car"
My blood goes cold, "W-Why have you been following us"
"I want a pack, and I want yours"
