"I will shave your hair off, blondie."

⭒🐺━━━━━🐺⭒

Charlotte sits on her bed, texting Lydia to help calm herself down after another nasty fight with Derek.

He's found someone else to be apart of his pack, and he's not telling them everything there is to know.

And it's pissing Charlotte off.

'So, how come you've been ignoring everyone?' Lydia texts.

"Ouch." Charlotte mutters to herself, pushing down the hurt feelings in her chest as she texts the redhead back.

'Everyone's waiting for you at the ice rink.' Lydia adds, making Charlotte freeze from what she was gonna text back.

The Lynx purses her lips, deleting what she was going to send before she writes something else.

'Tell everyone to skate without me and that I said sorry. I'm going to bed.' Charlotte texts.

'At six in the afternoon?' Lydia asks, and Charlotte can see the exasperated look on Lydia's face.

'Yup.' Charlotte texts before she locks her phone, throwing it on the bed in front of her.

Charlotte purses her lips, leaning her forehead on her knee that's been pulled up to her chest.

"Charlotte?" A deep voice asks from the doorway, making the girl look up to see Boyd looking at her with furrowed eyebrows.

"Please, leave." Charlotte rolls her eyes, her forehead resting on her knee again so she can try and avoid Boyd the best she can.

"No, you're upset." Boyd shakes his head, walking into Charlotte's room, sitting at the edge of her bed.

"I didn't say 'come in.'" Charlotte huffs.

"I don't care." Boyd shrugs before silence falls over the two.

"Are you gonna be the new beta?" Charlotte asks after a few moments, now giving Boyd her full attention.

"Yeah..." Boyd trails with a nod.

"Are you already?" Charlotte asks him.

"No, Derek said that he wants to wait." Boyd tells her, making the Lynx furrow her eyebrows a little in confusion.

"Okay, Boyd, are you completely sure you wanna do this? Has Derek told you everything?" Charlotte asks worriedly.

"He told me about full moons and about hunters." Boyd nods.

"Did he tell you that there are already hunters in Beacon Hills? Did he tell you that he's only making this pack for his own power?" Charlotte asks, making Boyd raise his eyebrows a little.

"Yes, and no. He did tell me about the Argents and to not speak about them around you... which is what I'm doing right now." Boyd winces a little, making Charlotte chuckle.

"And no, he didn't tell me that he's only doing this for his own power." Boyd shakes his head.

"Figures." Charlotte scoffs.

"Can I ask you some questions?" Boyd asks, making Charlotte nod, a surprised expression on her face.

"How bad are full moons?" Boyd asks her.

"Well, they're pretty bad. It makes your bloodlust rise at its full peak." Charlotte replies.

"Does it hurt?" Boyd asks with a slight conflicted expression.
