Of course the lesson finished even with my wishing. I didn't exactly have any powers over time and space so it wasn't as if I could stop it from happening.
Stiles was waiting for me outside of the classroom as I exited.
"So...uh...it's been a long time since you were last in Beacon Hills, huh?" he asked without even saying a word of greeting.
I nodded, not really in the mood to talk.
"You been okay?" Stiles asked. "I don't think I ever got a chance to say sorry for your loss before you left."
I shrugged and looked away from him. My eyes settled on two guys not so far off. I did not recognize them. They were both tall and buff with extremely short hair- identical twins.
They swaggered around as if they owned the place. Then, suddenly, one of them turned to look at me and I felt an instant chill down my spine as one of them sniffed the air.
Then I turned around and legged it down the corridor, ignoring the stares and Stiles shouting after me. Looking over my shoulder, I noticed they had both disappeared. I got outside and ran across the car park but before I knew it, I had rammed straight into one of them.
"Hey, calm down, omega." He said as he grabbed my wrist. I didn't struggle, freezing up. My eyes were focused on his chest. "We just wanna know why you're here is all."
I could hear the other one behind me, even though I didn't turn my head to look.
"I'm Aiden and that's my brother, Ethan." said the one with my wrist in his clutches. The way he was gripping me meant that he could most probably feel my trembling. "You've trespassed into a pack's land, you need to explain yourself."
When I didn't answer, he tightened his grip. Then came a shout that I was so happy to hear. "Hey, Ethan, Aiden. Leave her alone. Can't you see she's terrified?" It was Stiles, behind him walked a boy I remembered because he was Stiles' best friend. Scott McCall. I looked towards them, thanking him mentally but wanting to tell him to run. They were werewolves! He needed to leave so he didn't get hurt.
Surprisingly, Aiden loosened his grip but didn't fully let me go. Scott gave a growl and my eyes darted to him to see his own eyes glow red. Scott was an alpha? That really confused me and I frowned at him.
Aiden dropped my wrist and took a step back. As soon as I was able to, I made to run again but Ethan stepped in my path.
Stiles walked towards me, raising his hands as though I was pointing a gun at him. He licked his lips. "Hey, it's okay. Calm down." he soothed and I actually listened to him but still remained wary.
Stiles was human, that much was clear. Therefore, I trusted him more than the others.
"Why did you come to Beacon Hills?" Stiles asked. "Are you friend or foe, that's all we want to know?"
I took a moment before replying. "Friend" I whispered.
The group visibly relaxed at that one word.
I made my voice a little more audible. "I didn't realize there was another pack here, I'm sorry."
Before anyone else was able to reply, another voice sounded. "Becky?" it asked and I looked around, seeing a boy I vaguely remembered from my time in Beacon Hills. For a moment, I had expected it to be Derek. Only he had used that nickname for me.
I frowned at him, obviously confused. Everyone else seemed to be too.
"This is Rebekah Nolan, she was in Derek's pack." the boy explained. He walked closer to me and held out a hand. "Hi, I'm Isaac Lahey. I was a part of Derek's new pack until he left."
I tilted my head slightly and ignored his hand. "He left?" I asked. "Do you know where he went?"
Isaac shook his head. "No, sorry." That made me sigh.
I looked towards Scott, considering he was obviously the alpha. "I guess I shouldn't have came here then" I said. "I'm sorry for intruding."
Scott shook his head. "Feel free to stay as long as you'd like."
Stiles gave a lopsided grin. "Yeah, the more the merrier."
