The Witch and the Werewolf - Derek Hale

Chapter 6 - Heart Monitor

Liana missed school Friday after the accident and the rest of the weekend she mostly stayed at home. She did convince her Uncle to let her go out with Isaac for a while on Sunday though. She was going stir crazy in the house, besides she wanted to get the bracelets for the spell she was working on, too. 

Liana was now in her room making the bracelets. She ground up star wintercress, raven bitterweed, bleeding pokeroot, wulfoo, rynrthite, eiprocasse, and blessed eichronove. She laid the bracelet out before covering it with the herbs. She closed her eyes and started the spell. 

"Antioest viarum nomiayerate brooaorun persuin renairum rasis tuteola idishque." She chants. 

When she finished the spell and opened her eyes the herbs were gone and infused into the bracelet. She picked up the bracelet, felt the spell, and smiled at her success. She made two more bracelets afterwards. So she had a bracelet for Stiles, Derek, and Isaac. She even spelled her necklace for herself. 

After she finished, she put the herbs in her hiding spot in her closet and put the bracelets in her backpack. She would give Stiles his before school tomorrow, since he was out now. Afterwards, she climbed into bed and quickly fell asleep.

After Derek talked to Scott about him seeing the alpha, he went over to Liana's. When he hopped in her window, she was already asleep. He smiled at her sleeping form. Just being around her always got him to calm down. Derek stripped down into his boxers before slipping into bad beside her. Almost as if she could sense he was there, she rolled over and cuddled up into his side. Derek smiled and kissed her head before falling asleep.

Hours later, Liana's alarm goes off. She groans and buries her head further into Derek's chest. He chuckled and reached over to turn off her alarm. 

"Good morning." Derek says in a husky voice as he rubs his hand up and down Liana's back.

"Morning." Liana says before she kisses his chest and sits up to stretch her arms out. She looks down at him, "What time did you get here?"

"Around 11:30. You were already asleep."

"Yeah. I've been sleeping more because of the concussion." She says before leaning down to press a short kiss to his lips and getting up. "So what happened while you were out last night?" She asks as she walks into her closet and changes.

"I didn't see the alpha, but Scott did. He drew a spiral in Scott's windshield." Derek says. 

"A spiral?" Liana asks as she walks out of the closet, dressed in a gray shirt and black skirt. She walks into the bathroom to brush her teeth and quickly do her hair and light make up...easier said than done one-handed...well the makeup was fine, the hair was the hard part.

"It means vendetta in my family. It means revenge."

"Do you think that is what the alpha meant with it?"

"Mixed with the anger Scott felt from him...yeah."

"But how would he know what the spiral meant if he wasn't a Hale?"

"I have no idea." Derek says as he stands up to get dressed in his jeans and his long sleeve shirt. "It doesn't make sense. Other than me, Peter is the only Hale left and he has basically been comatose since the fire."

"Just add another mystery to the long list of mysteries we have to solve." Liana says as she walks out of her bathroom. 

She walks over to Derek and wraps her arms around his waist while looking up at him with a smile. Derek immediately knows she wants something.
