CHAPTER 3
Pulling up into the newly restored Hale house's driveway, she noticed she was ten minutes early, and decided to wait for someone else to arrive before she entered the house. Five minutes before the meeting, Lydia arrived, and Stiles joined her. Lydia didn't notice the ring.
"Hey Lyds." Stiles greeted her.
"Stiles." She said in exasperation. "Don't call me that!"
Stiles just laughed. "Come on. Sourwolf is going to be even more sour if we don't get out tails inside."
They entered to find Derek missing but Isaac, who was currently living with Derek, sitting with Boyd waiting for the others to arrive.
"Derek's guarding the Omegas." Isaac informed the two girls. "He said to get him when everyone arrived."
Lydia smirked as the rest of the pack arrived in a group.
"So, now?" She said, skipping down without waiting for an answer.
She and Derek were just coming back into the room when Jackson exclaimed, "Stiles! Is that an engagement ring?"
Stiles blushed and tried to sit on her hand. "Maybe." She tried to leave, but was pushed into the sofa.
"Who?" Derek snarled.
"His name is Percy." She admitted. "And I've been with him since I was fifteen. He asked me this afternoon."
"Your mysterious guy in your room." Derek realized. "So why wasn't he there when I came up?"
"I was planning on easing you guys into it. I know how protective you can be." She informed them. "I'd rather not have my fiance ripped up by werewolves."
"Wait, Percy's alive?" Scott realized.
She nodded, beaming with excitement. "He showed up today. I'd almost given up hope he would be found."
"That's great!" Scott told her happily. He turned to Derek. "His name is Percy. He went missing almost two years ago. It cut her up pretty badly. It's when she went emo for a few months, if you guys remember that stage. Everyone gave up hope, thought he was dead. It's not uncommon in New York."
"He was found." Stiles said softly. "It was a car accident on his way out to see me, which resulted in amnesia. His I.D. was lost in the crash, and we never heard from him. He told me he kept remembering my face, but he couldn't remember who I was. He didn't even know his own name. He was finally found by some distant cousins about a year ago, and they've been working on restoring his memory before he came back to visit me. They didn't know my name, so they couldn't contact me, and they don't really like Percy's side of the family, so they were not about to call them, just to get his girlfriends name, once they figured out who he was. He recovered the last of his memories, his latest batch before the accident, and came straight here to see me. He didn't want to just tell me over the phone. That would be cruel. He just came and held me. Then he proposed to me. I said yes." Stiles lied her butt off. She told the truth as close as it could be, and left out some parts. She hoped any heart stuttering would be thought to be from emotion. She lucked out. The wolves were too riled up on how to protect her honor to notice any lies.
"You can't just marry him!" Derek protested. "He could have drastically changed in two years."
Stiles tightened her hold on her magic as she got in Derek's face. "I know exactly who he is, Alpha, and we're getting married. My father approves, his family approves, and his mother is amazing. Everyone loves Sally. Percy is a warrior in the modern day, and he is chivalrous to a fault, so don't even try. I love the pack, but if I had to choose, it would be him. EVERY time!" She spat furiously.
Derek took a step back, and Stiles prayed to her mother, Hecate, to grant her a strong control so she didn't murder her Alpha. "I'm sorry, Stiles." He apologized. "It's just a big surprise."
"None of you knew how serious Percy and I have been, even if you knew about him. I understand. Just don't try to keep us apart." She warned them.
"Were you serious, Stiles?" Scott asked softly. "Would you choose Percy over the pack?"
She smiled sadly. "Every damn time." She admitted. "He's always been my everything."
The pack mulled this over. "How old is he?" Jackson asked curiously.
"Nineteen, almost twenty. He's almost three years older than me. We started dating when I was fourteen, and he was just about to turn seventeen. He disappeared before his eighteenth birthday." She informed him. "But we're here about the Omegas." She reminded them.
Derek nodded. "This isn't over though, Stiles. We will continue this talk."
"Later." She told them. "Percy's coming for dinner with my dad and his mom, tonight, and you guys have Omegas to deal with."
"Fine." He groused. She smiled and left, skipping.
