Chapter 11
"Alright! This is how things are going to go. The first hunt will be in our human form, on Saturday we will hunt in our wolf forms, and then on Sunday we will have a feast in honor of our alliance" Derek announced to his pack. "Diana will not be able to participate in the wolf part of the hunt considering that she is 5 months pregnant" Groans from the pack filled the air. She's the fun one when it comes to these things.
"Where is Diana?" Stiles turned to Lydia, questioning the absence of his female Alpha.
"Jackson went with her to get an ultrasound. They'll be back in a bit. Oh and Diana wants you to go to her office when she's back" Lydia answered turning to Isaac and Scott who were looking at Derek warily.
"How do you think Diana will react to being sidelined?" Isaac asked Scott
"She won't while he's around" Scott said gesturing to Derek "but as soon as he's gone she'll probably break down like she did after she announced she was pregnant"
~FLASHBACK~
"Scott, are you willing to stay with pack?" Diana asked as Scott put her into her once shared bed. Scott snuggled into her side as he felt her uncertainty and sadness roll off of her in waves.
"You spared my life when I'm sure Derek would have killed me the first chance he got. I wouldn't want to go anywhere else"
"That's good. I'm not sure Isaac would be willing to let you go. Allison is alive Scott; I want you to know that before you make any serious decisions that could hurt my pup."
"Allison means nothing to me. I put my family in danger for a girl who didn't even love me"
"Love makes a person do things that they normally wouldn't do Scott"
"Is that what Derek is then? In love? He's in love with Stiles? I mean Stiles and I used to be best friend and he is a nice guy so I can see why Derek would fall in love with him. If that's even what he's doing"
"I can't answer that Scott. Yeah we've been close but I can't exactly read his mind. And now I'm pregnant. Can you believe that? I just—"Diana was interrupted by a knock on her door. The pack piled into the room looking down at their feet like grounded Children.
"Omygosh what did you guys do?!" Diana said sitting up in her bed
"Um, well, Erica" Isaac began to say
"Don't blame it on me! It was your guys idea too!"
"Okay. We put itching powder in all Derek's underwear and he might have found out." Lydia said, moving towards the bed. She quickly got in and laid her head on Scott chest.
"Might of? Or did?" Derek's howl filled the house and his thundering foots were making their way down to Diana's room. The pack quickly jumped into Diana's bed. Cuddling up to each other and hiding under the cover.
Derek quickly came into the room. Eyes glowing crimson , he would have been foaming at the mouth if he could.
"Diana!"
"Yes darling?"
"Your pups decided to fill my clothes with itching powder. Would do you have to say about that?"
"They're your pups too. You changed them remember?"
Diana watched as Derek stood there. Staring at her and the pack. Occasional giggles came from underneath the cover followed by a gasp and a whispered "be quiet".
"Well Derek? Is that all? I'm sure Stiles is waiting for you" Diana said laying back down with her pack snuggling into the warmth that Scott's body provided. "Close the door and turn out the light when you leave honey" she said as Derek turned to walk out the door. The room was silent except for the resounding click that meant more than just a door being closed.
~END FLASHBACK~
"Come in Stiles"
"Lydia said you wanted to see me ma'am?"
"She was correct. I wanted to discuss your future in this pack. Seeing as you and Derek are much closer now then you were before"
"Um thank you?"
"I want to discuss your education. You graduated top of your class and had plenty of college offers only you rejected all of them in order to stay at home with your father. You are at genius standards according to your IQ and you were involved in many anti-werewolf campaigns." Diana said raising her eyebrow at Stiles.
"Um yes ma'am. Lydia graduated at the top. I lost out to her by .5"
"Stiles, I forgive you. What happened that night was not your fault and I know that. But right now I can hear your heart racing and you reek of fear. It almost covers up the scent of Derek but not all the way. I very much wish to be your friend and I want to offer you a place at Hale corporations as soon as you go to college of course. Lydia will accompany you at school seeing as she did not attend college either. And Ryan will be with you for those years"
"Ma'am? But I'm a servant. Why would you send me to college? I fucked your partner for gods sake!" Stiles said throwing his hand up in confusion.
"Stiles, you are much more than that. You make Derek happy in ways that I never could. And I thank you for that. That is why I'm sending you to school. So you can have a better life ad not just be known as a servant. And if you want I will gladly give you the Bite. After you finish with school that is" Diana said looking at Stiles. She slowly rose from her desk and held her hand out to Stiles. Stiles shook her hand and a sense of relief flooded through his body as Diana pulled him close a hugged him.
He was finally forgiven.
"I hear you will be going to college?" Derek said as Stiles entered their room.
"Yeah Diana figured that I should get a chance to go away for awhile. Figure out what I really want"
"Will I be on one of those things that you want?"
"We'll I don't know Derek. Things change what I want now maybe different from why I might want in four to six years."
"Six years..?"
"Who knows I may want to be a doctor or a lawyer"
"Stiles, I won't see you for 6 years? Do you not understand that... I just found you and you're already going to leave me?"
"This is for my future Derek. I know it's not ideal but I never got a chance to go to college so I am going to take advantage of what's being offered to me. If you really care for me as much as you do you would let me go. You know how they say "if you love something set it free, if it comes back it was meant to be. But if it doesn't then you move on" not in those words exactly but you get my point"
"Stiles, you don't understand my wolf goes crazy if I'm away from you for more than a minute. It is painful for me to leave your side."
"Yeah well guess what your wolf is going to have to get used to because I am going Derek and I don't care if you get mad"
Derek stayed quiet for a while. Debating whether a fight would be worth it. But stiles was hard headed he would leave no matter what Derek said. It didn't matter that he would be unhappy for a while this is what Stiles wanted he would make his mate happy if it killed him.
"when do you leave then?"
" after the hunt. The morning the Great Britain Pack leaves" Stiles said somberly. Moving to lay down on the bed next to Derek. Derek quickly moved to his side and buried his face in Stiles Neck
"Derek, I sorta can't concentrate when you have your face there. And oh...oh...your tongue, and oh do that again. Your teeth. Derek please." Stiles moaned as Derek licked a stripe on his neck. Derek's teeth got involved and Stiles was left a horny incoherent mess in Derek's hands.
"If you're not going to finish what you stated I suggest you move so I can" Stiles said as Derek moved away from him. Derek's shirt hit the floor quickly followed by his pants and underwear. With his mouth agape stiles moved to the edge of the bed a looked up at Derek as he slid his hand down his abs and onto Derek aching cock. Stiles mouth covered the red head and he licked at the slit sucking, on the pre-cum that had already come out. Derek's moans and groans filled the air as Stiles brought him release with his never shut mouth
"My turn" Derek said. Eyes red.
"Hello Diana, it's been awhile since we have seen each other" Harry said as he entered the Hale manor.
"Harry! Darling how are you?! Have you found your future queen yet darling?"
"Well I happen to think she is standing right in front me" Harry said slyly. Looking at Diana with a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Ever since my brother decided to not take the crown the entire family has pestered me about finding a wife"
"Well we have many beautiful betas Harry. I'm sure you will find what you're looking for" Derek said as he came down the stairs. He put a possessive arm over Diana's shoulder but she quickly shrugged it off
"There's no point in pretending here Derek. The GB Pack already knows the truth" Diana said moving to Harry's side.
The rest of the pack quickly appeared behind her.
"Harry, you and you pack will occupy the Southern wing of the house. Stiles, Ryan take them so they can get settled"
"Thank you darling, we will see you at dinner then." Harry said moving closer to Diana.
"Yes you will" Dian replied to Harry moving so that their chests touched. Harry let out a content purr. His eyes flashing red.
"Alright the rules are every man for him self. There is a very big buck out there that was released just for today. The first man or woman to successfully hunt a kind the buck will win" Diana said out to all the wolves from her balcony. "This is a human hunt. No wolf forms allowed. Each of you has a gun and ammo. There are horses available if you feel that you need them. Now the other prize is a hog. A very big and ugly hog. Again the first person to hunt and kill successfully is the winner" Dian looks down at wolves with pride. She brought them all together and she would be damned if they lost to Englishmen.
On the other side of the manor Alpha Harry was saying the same things to his wolves. Only he had one more thing to add.
"I plan on winning Diana over and I require your help men. Hopefully she will be your next queen" Harry said smiling brightly. His wolves let out howls of content their Alpha had not been happy since the passing of his Grandmother.
The hunt began at 11 and none of the humans were allowed to participate. It was not unknown for a werewolf to get angry and attack whatever he stumbled upon. Diana did not participate in the hunt either. Being pregnant with twins was a pain in the ass. All the wolves had tracking device in their weapons so the hunt was being watched by Diana and the humans in the living room. The hunt was uneventful to say the least. Nothing exciting was happening and Diana left the living room.
She made her way to the twins room where they were taking their afternoon nap. Lydia was asleep in one of the rocking chairs with Nate in her arms. She moved to pick up Tony. Tony opened his eyes and looked at his mother with wonder.
"Hey baby. How are you? Did you miss mommy? I did sweet heart. I'm glad you're this young. it means that you have no idea what me and your father are going through. But guess what? You're going to have two new little brothers soon! I'm not sure what I'm going to name them yet but I'm pretty sure you're daddy is going to want to name one of them after him so get ready for that. I love you so much sweetheart. I'm so happy to have you and your brother." Diana said hugging her toddler. " I don't know what to do sweetie. I love your father very much but i know we can't continue to live around each other. I don't want to take you away from your father but if Harry does put in a claim I might have to accept. We can't afford to start pack war with Britain. it won't end in our victory" Tony gurgled back to his mother almost as if he was tying to give her advice. To confirm her fears.
"Shouldn't you be watching the hunt?"
"Harry! I didn't know you were there!" Diana said startled. Lydia woke and quickly left the room. Depositing Nate into Harry's arms.
"My men already captured the buck so we felt that was best to return and let Alpha Hale deal with the hog" Harry said; cooing to Nate who was on the verge of awakening. "You could be a real queen by my side Diana" Harry said looking up Diana through his eyelashes hopefully.
"Harry, you have to understand. I have children with two more on the way. Tell me that is not a problem and I won't believe you" Diana said to Harry with a torn look on her face.
"But it isn't Diana! I was here when Nate and Tony was born. I was the one waiting in the waiting room. Derek wasn't even there on time"
And Derek didn't show up until the next day; when Erica forced him into the hospital Harry had been the one to cut the cord and help her name the twins.
"Make a claim Harry. And wait until the war is over. If you say you care for me as much you do you will wait" Diana said determinedly
"Alright i will." Harry said moving out of the room with Nate in his arms. "Derek is back and I'm sure he'll want to see you"
"Shit"
