"Come on!"
"Irene, wait up!" Scott called after her.
They all decided to go to Derek's after the recital which ended up killing a teacher on stage. One more sacrifice. Which meant three people had died. Three more sacrifices. Which meant it was only a matter of time before three more people would be killed
"Derek?" Irene yelled as she rushed down the steps
"Irene? What's the matter?" He said in worry as she approached him, holding her arms and looking her all over
"I'm fine- It's not that- Derek. Stiles' dad was taken... Miss Blake took him. Which means she's already started with the next three sacrifices. Please, Derek. Stiles can't lose his dad... He's all he has left"
Scott and Stiles finally caught up with Irene and guessed that she had already filled Derek in on everything. Irene turned her head to the side when she heard a car door shutting outside. She was coming.
Irene took a step back, letting go of Derek as she looked up at him in confusion and another emotion. Betrayal. But why? Nothing was ever serious between them so why did she feel that way? She ignored Derek's confused expression and went to hide with Scott and Stiles.
Not long after the door to Derek's loft swung open and heels echoed around the stairway
"Derek? Derek, where are you?" She called out
"Right here." He replied, standing into the light of the moon
"Thank God!" She sighed in relief and ran over to Derek, hugging him tightly before stepping back "Something happened at the recital, at the school, okay? I need to tell you before you hear it, before you hear it for any of them"
"From who?"
"Scott, Stiles... Irene. They're gonna tell you things- things you can't believe. You have to trust me, okay? You trust me?"
"What is it?"
"Promise you'll listen to me"
"I promise" Derek replied but it was only followed with a long moment of silence. She figured it out.
"They're already here, aren't they?"
Irene let out a low growl as she appeared around the corner, Scott and Stiles just behind her. Stiles still had tears in his eyes and that only made Irene angrier but Stiles slowly reached forward and held her hand tightly, gently rubbing his thumb on the back of her hand
"So, they told you it was me? That I'm the one taking people?" She said in disbelief
"We told him you're the one killing people" Irene said in a low, gravely tone
"Oh, that's right" Miss Blake scoffed "Committing human sacrifices? What, cutting their throats? Yeah, I probably do it on my lunch hour. That way, I can get back to teaching high school English the rest of the day. Makes perfect sense"
"Where's my dad?" Stiles said in a shaky voice, tears stinging his eyes as he looked at her, trying to seem brave. Irene looked up at Stiles, tightening her grip on his hand before turning back to Miss Blake
"How should I know?" She said before looking at Derek "Derek, tell me you don't believe this?" She said which made Irene look between them both. She was stupid to think anything was going to happen with her and Derek. She was just his beta. Nothing more
"Do you know what happened to Stiles' father?" He asked her
"No!"
"Ask her why she almost killed Lydia" Scott said after noticing Irene fell silent, not even looking at Derek anymore as she stared at the window
