The Bite: Derek Hale x reader (One Shots)

Rich mans world pt 1

I don't usually write AUs anymore and especially ones that are out of character but I'm feeling a little bit kooky today 😂
(A world where Derek is a bitter rich man... so kinda just the same world but...just...different?)
(Also a world where Derek's family didn't die because... PLOT!)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
"If my mom hadn't forced me to come, I never would have met you." I laughed and sat back down on the bench
"Well then my night wouldn't have been half as entertaining as it has been." He nodded with slight sarcasm lacing his words
I knew he wanted to admit he was having fun but his bitterness withheld his smile.
"So does this mean you dont hate me like you said you did?"
"I wouldn't go that far." He huffed and shoved his hands in his pockets
"Would you go far enough to say that if I happened to show up to another party hosted by your family that you might just save a dance for me?"
"I may save a dance for you." He looked at the sky and then back at me "if you can answer this question honestly."
"Okay."
"Are you still scared of me?"
~~~~~~~~~
"Y/n I need you to take my place tonight." My mom demanded as she removed her overpriced earrings and stuck them back into her jewelry box.
"What?? Why?"
"Because I can't go. Your dad said his flight is coming in early and I need to be there to pick him up."
"You know I'm not good at these things."
"I know, just do your best. And you'll have your aunt there to help."
"Okay. Fine. What dress should I wear?"
"I'll grab it for you."
She made me stand like a doll so she could accessorize me how she wanted.
"There. Perfect."
"Great! Now I get to go stand in a room full of werewolves for four hours! I wonder who will make me their dinner." I sassed to her through the mirror
"Y/n..." my mom warned with a low voice and squinted eyes. I took that as mummy sign to shut up and just go to this damn party.

It was as if we were still in the 1800s. The party was hundreds of people in ball gowns and three piece suits. As we entered a small band was playing a song similar to a waltz and couples danced in synchronicity. I pulled at my dress skirt trying to fix this uncomfortable feeling I had in my body.
"Stop fidgeting." My aunt whispered.
"Sorry. I just suddenly started sweating. I don't actually have to dance right?"
"If someone asks you should."
"Then I shall sit in a dark corner and avoid all eye contact." I raised my chin and pursed my lips at her
"At some point you're going to have to make friends with these people."
"When that day comes you can put me down, because I will be suffering."
She just rolled her eyes at me and handed the invitation to the door boys. They offered their hands and helped us down the stairs.
"This feels apocalyptic. It is 2016. There is no reason this should be happening."
"It's just traditional."
When we got down the stairs the boys let go of our hands and walked back up to the door.
"Oh! That's our mother family! I'll leave you to wallow in your sorrow." She giggled and walked off to a large family who was waving in her direction
I looked around to find a small quiet spot to hide and my eyes caught a corner out of view of most of the ballroom. I slinked over and pressed my back to the cold marble wall. I pried my phone from the pocket deep in the waves of fabric of my dress and opened a random app.
"Well someone's enjoying the party." A smooth voice snipped
I whipped my head up and locked eyes with a beautiful man.
"O-oh. Sorry. Did you say something?"
"No I was just making fun of you."
"Oh. Well that's kinda rude. What makes you think you have the power to do that?"
He glanced at the ceiling like he was searching for an answer.
"Nothing actually." He shook his head with a smirk "I apologize."
"Apology accepted."
He nodded, probably not knowing what to say now.
I watched as a man, presumably a waiter, walked over to us and turned to the stunning man
"Mr Hale, your father has requested your presence for the opening toast."
Oh shit... that was Derek Hale? He's a lot more attractive than I expected. And I totally just spoke out of line. Shit.
Derek sighed and shooed the waiter off.
"I am so sorry. I did not mean to offend you at all when I was speaking. I just didn't know who you were." I was severely trying to back myself out of the literal corner I was in "I mean- like I know who you are, but like I didn't know you were you."
I was stepping back while he just stood watching me trying to run away. I was out of the corner still blabbing when Derek yanked me back into the corner by the waist.
"Watch it!" A waitress snapped as she moved past me.
"Sorry!" I cringed into the space between our chests.
"You are just a mess. Are you done now?" Derek chided
"Yeah. I think I am."
Derek let go of my waist and I fixed my corset.
There was a clattering of a glass and the mixed chatter of the room slowed down.
We both turned to look at the noise and Derek's parents were addressing the crowd.
"Well I need to go do that. So if you stay here maybe I'll find you after. Just don't run into any waitresses while I'm gone."
"I'll try not to." I nodded with a tight lipped smile. Once he was out of eye shot I threw a mini fit.
"What the actual fuck was that, y/n? Could you have literally made a bigger mistake? Holy shit you're absolutely useless." I pinched the bridge of my nose and tried to calm myself down.
"Y/n!" My aunt rushed over and "was Derek talking to you? What did he say? What did you say?"
"It's a long story."

After the grand speech presented by the Hale family, I took my shot to slink out of the ballroom, hoping to get some fresh air.
I found a small courtyard in the back of the manor and sat down on a concrete bench that stuck to the tule on my dress like Velcro.

Third POV
After the toast, Derek hopped off stage and looked around, hoping to find the bumbling girl still in the ballroom but she was nowhere to be seen. Derek walked around until he spotted a puffy figure out in the courtyard through a grand window.
Derek opened the patio door and walked out to meet her.
"Got too tired of bothering waitresses?" Derek asked
Y/n turned and made eye contact with him
"I suppose. Probably best I'm not in there."
"Why's that?" He asked taking a seat next to the girl of tule and silk
"Because I'm a mess... always... and I ruin things... clearly," she chuckled "I'm never normally allowed to go to these things but my mom was sick so I had to fill in."
Derek just nodded and let out a light chuckle
"What is so funny?" Y/n asked crossed her arms and pouted
"Nothing nothing... just... never seen a politicians daughter so inept of social cues and conversationalist tactics." He smiled
"Are you calling me incompetent?" Y/n asked turning to him
"What? No no no!" He rhetorically said "never."
"You are! You totally are!" She scoffed
"I just- what's a girl like you gotta do to learn?"
"Probably take a million etiquette lessons and get mortally embarrassed." Y/n thought
"I'm sure that'll do the trick." He said and stood offering his hand
Y/n looked at it
"What's this?" She asked
"We are going to get that mortally embarrassed part done. You're gonna dance with me."
"No, no absolutely not!"
"Why not?" He asked taking
"Because I'm scared!" Y/n said back
"Of what? Of dancing? I know you've got two left feet but I can make it work." Derek comforted
"No...of you." She whispered and then booked it in her heels in the other direction
