•Stiles' pov• The pack sat in the living room. Isaac had Liam in his lap kissing his forehead as the kid went to sleep. Scott all bandaged up had his arms around his mate and brother. Jackson had Lydia close and he sniffed into her strawberry blonde curls. Erica was next to Lydia, both having Cora on there laps. Boyd under Erica his mate, tiny compared to his body. Derek and I sat in a massive black leather chair facing Parrish who looked two parts pissed and scared.
He opened his mouth to speak but Derek shushed him. "Ok Parrish I want to thank you for saving my mate and beta." Derek said sincerely, ignoring the noises of disbelief. "However you're a cop" he continued. "I wouldn't Stiles betray and since he's your 'mate' I won't betray you" Parrish said stealing a glance at me. "I want you to join my pack. If you say no I'll understand but, you'll become our enemy." Derek eyes red. Parrish contemplated his options and he nodded at Derek.
"I accept your offer Alpha Hale" Parrish said. "Jordan, my pack simply calls me Derek." He said. He told the pack to go home and that we'd see them tomorrow at 'Red'. "You can stay for the night...if you want. Scott show him his room." Derek said as he kissed my forehead and walked up the massive stairs.
"Scott get Liam to bed I'll show Jordan his room" I said as I grabbed Parrish wrist. "Stiles?" Liam asked. "Go to sleep" I said kissing his forehead. I brought Parrish to his room. "Thank you" I said standing in front of Jordan. "I'd do anything for you Stilinski" Parrish said grabbing the side of my face. I shoved him back and he stared at me in shock. "You don't do that, ok? I'm mated...to your Alpha" I said pointing my long finger at him. "Please Sti...you're human it's not the same" Jordan said letting his hand fall to my waist. I slapped him and ran to Derek's and my room.

"Oh you could, could you? Go to sleep babe" I said as I kissed Stiles' slightly sweaty forehead. He made a puckering motion with his lips and nuzzled into my spot on our bed. I walked down stairs eyes adjusting to the darkness. I saw a light flow from the kitchen and as I entered I saw Parrish shipping from a Jack Daniels bottle and eating pizza. Reminding me very much of the one time Scott broke up with Isaac over an old boyfriend and spent 35 and 1/2 hours crying into my shoulder.
"You ok there Parrish?" I asked as I grabbed a slice of pizza. "No" he said staring at me eyes orange and watering from crying. "Care to talk about it?" I said knowing what was wrong. "You already know, Derek? The first time in over a yearI see Stiles and he's allgrown up. Completely different, in love with a criminal werewolf. But he's happy and I've never seen him happy at least not 100%. So I can't 100% hate you. But please don't...DON'T hurt him" Parrish said looking at me in the eyes. I chuckled and grabbed the bottle and pizza box. "Go to bed Parrish" I said ruffling his hair.
