Cruel || The Banshee and the Beta ➼ TEEN WOLF

Chapter 1 - Junior year

Sabrina

It's been a whole summer since we defeated both Gerard and the Kanima. These past months have been filled with some kind of normality, thank god. Jackson relocated to London recently, of course after Derek taught him how to control himself, but it left Lydia feeling pretty down about the situation. She still loved him. 

But she's been occupying herself by sleeping with any guy that catches her eye. Scott and Allison are still broken up, but he's still adamant that they'll somehow end up together, I'm not so sure though. Stiles has been a bummer all summer. No matter what we do to try and cheer him up, he's a downer, all because he hasn't been able to contact Lexie, none of us have. 

I tried asking Lydia but she told me she had no idea about what was going on. Hopefully, Lexie should be back just before school starts, and I can ask her about what happened, because I'm getting the feeling that she wasn't lying on a beach somewhere in the Bahamas. 

And also because I need someone's advice on what we're about to face. And she's the only one who's read through the Bestiary. I have a feeling that there might be clues to what the 'Alpha Pack' holds written somewhere among the ancient Archaic Latin that only Lexie can translate. 

Of course, my life hasn't been that normal, I mean how can it be when you're a werewolf within a pack that's being targeted by another pack full of only Alphas. It's quite scary. But I've been spending some days help out and find answers. 

Derek has sent Isaac and I out multiple times to try find them, or find some clues to where they could be hiding. But they're dangerous and the four of us alone can't stop them, and I know I should clue my brother in on what's going on, but I've just gotten Derek to trust me, even if it's only a little bit. 

He doesn't trust easily, I get it because I don't trust easily either. After my dad left, I couldn't trust anyone, I didn't want to trust anyone because what was stopping them from getting up and leaving my life forever. But so far, the people I have trusted, haven't made me regret it and that's why I'm surrounded by some of the best people ever. 

Derek and I have gotten a lot closer, especially since we've been out searching for these Alphas together. Our bond has grown and I know he doesn't like to admit it, but we are somewhat in a very peculiar relationship. One that I will not share the contents of to anyone. 

God, if Scott found out, he'd go slightly crazy. The only people that know about Derek and I, is Lexie, Isaac. And unfortunately, the hellbent Peter Hale, who caught the end of a swift kiss we shared just before I headed out. The smirk on Peter's face after witnessing it was irritating, it meant that if he ever wanted to turn on us again, he'd hold it against me. What a little bitch!

But I'm not so worried about Peter going against anytime soon, if anything I'm sorta glad he's working with us to try stop the cruel things that lie ahead, so if that means I have to give him the benefit of the doubt, then so be it. 

He, along with Isaac and I, has been out by himself looking for the same pack, it means that I haven't seen him in awhile. After some time, I brought up my concerns with Derek but he just reassured me that Peter wouldn't be so stupid to run away, that he'd be back soon enough. Well, let's hope so.

Tomorrow was the first day of Junior year, and I had been over at Derek's coming up with some kind of ideas or plans, Isaac was out searching again and he hadn't come back yet, which had just worried me more. But again, Derek reassured me that everything was gonna be okay. I mean how could he be so calm in a time of chaos.
