"What the hell, Liam?!" I push him against the wall of the clinic, feeling my teeth move and change in my mouth.
"I'm sorry. I'm only a beta!"
"Oh, so I was bitten by a beta? Wow, such an honor!" I growl in his face.
"Don't rip him apart now, Kelli." Deaton touches my arm, caressing me.
"I don't need your pity, Deaton."
Scott pulls me away as I look into Liam's eyes. He was breathing heavily and gritting as his teeth. He bends over, crouching. He gets up, roaring in my face.
"Do you think I wanted to do this to you?" His voice was different and his eyes were glowing yellow.
"He couldn't control himself, Kelli. That's why I have to teach him how to be good."
I look to Liam and then back to Scott.
"Are you guys a pack?"
"Yes. We had more but we lost them."
"Is Kira, Stiles, and Lydia anything?"
"Kira is a kitsune and Lydia is a banshee."
"Like a screaming banshee?"
"Yeah."
"What about Malia?"
"She's a coyote."
"Does that mean I'm part of your pack now?"
"You're Liam's beta. Liam's my beta."
I look over to Liam, he's not in his wolf form anymore.
"I'm sorry, Kelli."
I walk into Liam's arms and feel his arms wrap around my back.
"It's okay, Liam."
I feel his smile on my neck as he pulls out.
Scott clears his throat. I smack his arm.
"Ow."
"Shouldn't we be heading back to school?"
Scott's phone dings.
"Nope. Stiles told them we had to go to the doctor and that you are sick. We have to take care of you."
"Should we head to my house?"
"No, your parents. Let's go to mine."
"Alright."
"See you later, Deaton."
"Later."
We walk out the door, seeing something unusual about the area.
"Doesn't something seem wrong?"
"It's just a little dark, probably rain."
I walk up to Scott's car and get in the back, shutting the door behind me.
Liam hops on the other side, giving me a small smile.
Scott starts the car as we drive out into the country. I look at Liam staring out the window. I unbuckle my seatbelt and scootch closer to him, setting my chin on his shoulder.
"Whatcha looking at?"
"Just thinking."
"You don't have to feel bad about what you did. Yeah I'm kinda pissed I'm half dog now but, you couldn't control yourself. I wasn't hard to get."
He chuckles a little.
"It's not that."
"What is it then?"
"You."
"What about me?"
"I mean, you were having a good life. Good grades, good parents, a home."
"I still have those, Liam. You didn't ruin anything."
"I ruined you."
I look down, taking a deep breath.
"Not yet. I'm fine."
He gives me a warm smile and we look out the back window, staring at all the clouds.
"I'll always be okay when I'm with my dogs." I chuckle it all out.
Scott obviously was listening in on us and lets out a large chuckle.
Liam smiles and his fingers accidentally run over my hand. His touch was soft.
"I'm sorry." His cheeks become pink.
I smile up at him and touch his hand back, chuckling.
"You sure do know how to be happy in a really hard time."
