Selene POV- Almost everyone in town was gone only Scott, Selene, Lydia, Malia, Liam, Theo, and Stilinski were left. Douglas somehow found a way to put Parrish under his control so he was no longer on their side.
On a good note the Ghost Riders weapons didn't work on Selene, turns out they can't erase her, also Stilinski remembered Stiles which created a temporary rift allowing him to briefly see Stiles. Now Scott, Selene, Malia, and Lydia were standing in front of Argents cryo unit used to freeze a Hellhound.
"So how cold does this thing get?" Scott asked.
"Cold enough for a Hellhound. It's not the same as the ice bath you gave Isaac but it can lower your core temperature past anything a human can survive" Lydia said.
"So what does freezing our asses off have to do with our memories?" Malia asked.
"It'll slow your heart rate and put you in a trance like state" Lydia explained.
"Like hypnosis" Scott added.
"Hypnotic regression. If we can figure out how to work it" Lydia said.
"This says 'start' so maybe it's not that complicated" Malia pointed out.
"This is meant to contain a Hellhound it's not as simple as turning on a light switch" Selene said.
"Uh yeah it's complicated" Scott said looking at all the nobs with numbers on the side of the cryo unit.
"So optimistically how much time do you think we need to do this?" Malia asked.
"As much time as Liam and Stilinski can buy us" Scott decided he would be the first one to go in.
He and Selene argued over it for ten minutes until Lydia pointed out they were wasting time. Scott said he knew Stiles longer therefore he had more memories and should go first. Finally Selene nodded. Scott took off his shirt and Malia pressed the start button.
"Okay it's doing something. You ready?" Malia asked.
Scott slowly got into the chamber.
"Remember this will get cold enough to kill you. So if something feels wrong or like it's not working…" Lydia said.
"It's going work" Scott assured her.
"I hope you're not saying that because you think I know what I'm doing" Lydia replied.
"I'm saying that because I know you can figure it out."
Then after sealing the locks Lydia turned each dial to full power.
"Oh okay all right yeah that's cold really cold" Scott said.
"So what are we supposed to do? Talk to him? Help him remember? Wait till he turns into a werewolf freezy pop?" Malia asked.
"We need to guide him keep him focused. Scott you have to think about him concentrate on Stiles. Try to picture him in your head. Think about what he looks like things he said" Lydia said.
Scott was clearly in pain and shivering from the cold.
"I don't like this something's wrong" Malia said.
"Wait give it a few more seconds" Lydia told her.
The chamber was beeping and Scott groaned in pain his palm against the frosted glass.
"I'm getting him out of there" Malia said.
"Wait! Scott… can you hear me?" Lydia asked as Scott relaxed inside the chamber.
When he opened his eyes they were red.
"Scott don't fall asleep. You have to keep your eyes open" Lydia ordered.
"Trying" Scott said weakly.
"It's not sleep. I think you're losing consciousness. And if you do that I think we're going to lose you" Lydia told him.
"Scott stay awake! Scott!" Malia yelled.
Selene stepped past Malia and Lydia right up to the chamber.
"Scott hear me stay awake. Try to find Stiles in your memories" Selene ordered.
"Find him in any memory good or bad" Lydia said.
Scott started freaking out in the chamber looking all over panting.
"What's happening to him?" Malia asked.
"I don't know" Lydia replied.
"He doesn't look good. He looks… lost" Malia said.
"I think he is. I think maybe it's too much information. Like he's getting buried under all the memories being over loaded by them" Lydia explained.
"So what do we do to help him?" Malia asked.
"If I get him calm and focused Lydia do you think you could lead him through his memories?" Selene asked.
"Yes."
"Scott calm down and relax you're safe. Calm your mind relax your body and focus your mind" Selene ordered slowly.
Scott began to relax and he quit panting.
"You hear that?" Malia asked about the thunder.
"Thunder?" Lydia asked.
"Maybe."
"This isn't working" Lydia said.
"Then we have to figure something else out" Malia said.
"I know I know" Lydia said.
"Lydia, Scott can hear us but he needs directions a guide through his memories. Someone who can guide him not order him. He needs your help" Selene said keeping an eye on Scott.
"You mean treat this more like actual hypnosis?" Lydia asked.
"Exactly."
"In hypnosis they use images to guide you through memories. Like a stairwell the steps you take down through one year of your life to the next. That's how they regress you back" Lydia explained to Malia.
"Scott listen imagine this. Imagine you're in the high school. Visualize yourself in the high school in the corridor where all the lockers are. Just try to imagine standing there. That's where your memories are. They're all in lockers. They're all locked away behind each one. Every memory of Stiles is in a separate locker. Scott you're there in the high school. You're standing there now" Lydia said calmly.
"Lydia I need your help. I don't think I can do this. I can't figure it out" Scott said softly.
"Keep looking" Lydia said.
"There are memories but I don't know which one's the right one. What am I supposed to do?"
"Find another memory. Just find another memory."
Then the glass on the chamber started to freeze.
"It's getting too cold he's getting too cold" Lydia said.
"What if it's not enough to remember him? What if it's some kind of a connection he's supposed to make because of a memory?" Malia said.
"Like an emotional connection?" Lydia asked.
"That could be why it worked for Stilinski right?"
"He wasn't just remembering someone he was remembering his son" Lydia said figuring it out.
"Scott? Scott can you hear me? Listen I remember something. At the start of the year Stiles was trying to find a place for you all to live after graduation. He said you were getting an apartment together? And I remember saying something to Stiles. Something like it's not always a good idea to live with your friends. Even your best friend. But Stiles said it wouldn't matter because you weren't just friends. You guys were more like brothers" Malia said.
As they helped Scott, Selene wrote on a piece of paper for Scott when it was Selene's turn to go into the chamber. Suddenly Scott's heart rate dropped rapidly. Malia and Lydia turned off the machine and opened the door. Scott fell out landing on the floor on his hands and knees.
"What what's wrong? Why'd you bring me out?" Scott asked.
"Your heart rate dropped you were gonna die" Lydia said.
"We had to" Malia explained.
"But then but then nothing happened did it? It didn't work" Scott said disheartened.
"I'm going back in" Scott said standing up slowly.
"No you're not" Lydia told him.
"It was working something was happening. I could feel it" Scott said.
"But nothing was happening out here. Nothing Scott. All we saw was you freezing to death" Lydia told him.
"You're still too cold" Malia said stopping Scott.
"We can't give up now."
"We're not. It's my turn. I have plenty of memories of Stiles too" Malia said.
"It's too dangerous" Lydia said.
"Not for me it's not. It's my turn" Selene said standing up from the table she was sitting at.
She pulled off her shirt standing in a black bra.
"A few days ago Stiles found a way to open the bond between us again. I could feel him just like he was never gone. He's scared, frustrated, angry, but also determined. If you need an emotional connection I got it. Not just emotional memories I have his emotions" Selene explained placing her palm against her chest over her heart.
"Okay you're up" Malia said.
"Lydia I'm gonna need someone stronger to guide me through my memories. I'll need a werewolf an Alpha, Scott. Here is a list of Stiles and my most emotional memories I don't care how you get to them just find them. And Scott don't worry about my heart rate it wouldn't be the first time I froze to death" Selene said handing Scott the piece of paper she was writing on earlier.
Selene slowly got into the chamber and Lydia closed the locks.
"Oh and Scott? Try to stay away from memories before Stiles most are pretty dark" Selene cautioned.
Then Lydia turned the cryo on. When it got cold enough Selene felt her body and mind relax and knew her eyes were red. Scott's eyes also went red as he looked down at the paper.
"Okay okay um imagine you're in Stiles' Jeep with the radio on. You're flipping through the stations each one shows a different memory of Stiles through the windshield. Go to the station where you were happiest in that Jeep" Scott instructed.
Selene was back in Stiles' Jeep and this time he was with her it was the night they saved Derek from wolfsbane poison. Selene felt bad for not telling Stiles she knew about werewolves and wolfsbane bullets.
"I'm sorry I didn't tell you" she said as she started to get out.
Stiles leaned over and pulled her back and kissed her.
It was their first kiss ever.
"Don't be" Stiles said smiling as they pulled back.
"Now the next station on the radio is a memory of you and Stiles inside your house. Look for your best memory inside your house" Scott instructed.
As Selene turned the nob on the Jeep radio through the windshield she saw the scene change they were now inside her bedroom. It was the night she feared the Alpha would kill Stiles and she couldn't stop it.
"Stay with me please. I… I thought…" Selene said as she cried.
Lightly he brushed them off and kissed her. They got out and neither said a word just silently went up the stairs. Once to her bedroom Stiles kissed her again slowly taking her shirt off kissing down her neck to her shoulder.
She pulled his shirt off and ran her hands over his chest and stomach. They kissed and touched his fingers pushed her bra straps off and he unhooked it from the back. She stood there naked from the waste up. She reached for his pants as he did hers and they kissed until they had to break apart to take off the last of their clothes.
She lay on the bed and he came down on top of her kissing her skin and lightly touched her. Her hands light as they ran over his chest shoulders and back. The slight sound of foil ripping the only sound to be heard other than them.
Then he was inside her and her back arched off the bed his lips met hers. It wasn't rushed it was a slow gentle build of pleasure. Both just enjoying the safety and feel of the other. Their breath mingled as the pleasure grew.
Selene lightly bit his shoulder to muffle her cry of pleasure as she came. There was a sharp pain from her bite that told Stiles just how much pleasure he brought her. He liked knowing he did that to her and it sent him over the edge and he yelled out his climax.
It was the first time they made love and when Selene forever bound herself to Stiles.
She was starting to get cold inside the chamber but she could barely tell all her attention was on Stiles on her mate.
"Now turn the radio one click go to the memory of what happened next. Inside your house what happened later that night?" Scott went on.
It was still dark out it was just a few hours after they made love. Selene lay wrapped in Stiles' arms lightly kissing his chest. When he looked into her eyes she smiled.
"Hey there" she said softly.
"Hi" he said smiled back.
They laid there just looking at each other.
"Stiles… I love you" Selene said a serious look on her face.
His face lit up like the 4th of July with happiness.
"I love you too Selene" Stiles told her once he managed to get air into his lungs he was so happy.
It was the first time she'd ever told someone she loved them. Seeing his face light up hearing him say it back meant the world to her.
"Turn the dial to the moment when you were the most happiest at his house" Scott said.
The scene changed again in the windshield. This time her and Stiles were in his bedroom.
"Are you sure?" Selene asked Stiles as he undressed her from behind.
His response was to give her a soft nip on her shoulder. He unhooked her bra then slid his hands down to undo her pants. He pushed her pants and panties down while she took off her bra. He turned her around and kissed her before pushing her onto his bed.
Selene giggled as she bounced on the bed and watched him. Stripping down Stiles thought about how gorgeous she was with the moonlight shining in through his window landing on her body making her skin glow. He grabbed a condom and got on the bed kissing her.
He felt her nails slide down his back and heard her growl as he kissed her and lightly squeezed her breast. Stiles leaned up and turned Selene on her belly and pulled her up onto her hands and knees.
She growled louder and he grinned then he slid his finger into her. Leaning over her he whispered in her war.
"My sexy she-wolf your mine."
Then slipping the condom on he thrust into her. Selene cried out in pleasure. But when Stiles bit her neck drawing blood she screamed her pleasure cumming hard. Stiles couldn't last much longer as he felt her cum and he thrust in a few more times before he came too. He released her neck and threw away the condom.
Then he crawled into bed and held her.
"How do you feel?" he asked softly.
"Whole" she said smiling and kissing his arm lightly.
It was when Stiles completed the mating between them when he bit her. She'd never felt more perfect than in that moment with him.
Selene was smiling when Scott opened the chamber door and she fell out dead her heart having stopped. It didn't matter because she had remembered Stiles.
She came to gasping in a breath of air and then she cried out one word.
"Stiles!"
