Things We Never Expected: Alpha's Mate (Sterek)

Chapter 12 A Pack Bond Pt 1

Isaac POV

    Scott, his mom, Sheriff Stilinski, Peter,  and myself were at the vet clinic when we heard it.

    Since today was Derek and Stiles second day of isolation we went visit Erica. She's been in a coma since we found her. Boyd doesn't leave her side unless he has to. Dr. Deaton has setup a bed in one of the back rooms, where Erica is. She's better than she was before but she still not at full health.

    Deaton had just walked into the room to inject Adline into Erica, so she could heal faster, when the howl came. It sounded like an actual wolf. I could feel it was pack but I didn't know who it was.

    I look at Scott to make sure he heard it too. He had.  The howl came from the Pack House. Melissa and John look at us.Their ears barely picking it up,but they could hear pack in the howl too. Scott springs into action first, surprisingly. "Isaac call Jackson tell him to drop Lydia and Allison off here. Then the three of us will go check on Stiles and Derek at the house."

    Jackson answers before the first ring even finished. "I guess you heard it too. I'm already halfway there with the girls." He speaks quickly then hangs up.

When we get to Hale Property there's not a border anymore. Stiles and Derek must have completed their mating ritual already.

    When we reach the driveway of the house Derek comes out to greet us. We all stare at the amber wolf trailing behind him. "Hey," he whispers. "So, Stiles is asleep. Its been a long day. Can you get the rest of the pack here? We have a lot to explain."

    Scott nods and walks towards the tree line to call his mom. Jacksons gets back in the car and waits for Scott. After Melissa is assured that everything is okay, Scott heads towards the car.  They head back to the clinic to bring the pack.

    I follow Derek into the house. The wolf still trailing behind us when I realize that she is what we heard howl. As I open my mouth to ask about it, heat spreads through my body. I drop to the ground clawing at my clothes to get rid of the heat. Not a moment later the heat lets up to a cozy warm feeling.

Stiles POV

    I lay down on our bed (Stiles and Derek's). As soon as my face hits the pillow I'm knocked out. I expect to have a dreamless sleep, but of course that doesn't happen. I appear in an empty area. There's purple fog floating around everywhere. I look around and see nothing. Then I hear her voice. "Stiles, " she said.

    "Mom? " I turn and finally see her. I run and hug her.

    "Stiles, honey,  I don't have much time. There's a letter I wrote to you to prepare you for this. It's hidden inside of the book I gave you before I died. You have to find it and read it soon. But first you must complete a task." I nod for her to continue. "As you know you are a Inegerld. To claim that title you must complete 6 task of Ineger. I am here to give you your first test. You are part wolf now. That is going to be a very important part of your life. So your pack must be strong. Right now yours is not. Your first test is to strengthen your pack bonds. The only thing I can tell you is that you have to use your magic and believe. I have to leave now. Remember Stiles,  I love you and will be proud of you no matter what." Before I can respond she's gone. I turn amd see the pack bonds. They're not what I expected.

    Some links are golden chains others are barely vines. They're in a circle eith two in the middle. I realize that's Derek and me. We're linked with a heavy,shiny gold chain. Derek's end is cracked towards the knot in the chain representing him. I picture it whole and thick like the piece connecting us. I close my eyes and take a deep breath. I focus on it and I can feel it growing stronger. When I open my eyes the chain is perfect. There are many links connecting to Derek. The first three I notice are Peter's, Isaac's, amd Cora's. They're connected with a small chain to each other and Derek. I close my eyes and focus on all three of them together. I sense them growing to the gold chain Derek now has.

    I move on to my side of the circle. There's a link to Scott, my dad, and Melissa. They're a gold-ish silver color. I focus on them and find it fairly easy to strengthen out bond. I fix Jackson's,  Lydia's, and Alison's link next. They took awhile because they were weaker than the others. I only find two more. They're Erica's and Boyd's. I realize that Derek have yet to include Danny, Ethan, and Aiden to our pack. So I add them. It was easier than I thought. I just thought of their chains being linked to the rest of them, gold and strong. And they were there. I think for a moment before I decide I might as well include Chris too.

    Once Chris' chain is there, I work on the last two. They're connected tightly to each other but not the others. Erica's link is barely a piece of rope. I take a breath and picture her and Boyd's link perfect. This takes the longest. When I finally open my eyes the chains are thick and gold. I succeed!

    One thing still felt off. I take a step back and look at the picture again. It was a web of the thickest,  heaviest, gold chains. Then it hit me. They weren't all bonded. I smile and take another deep breath. This is the easiest job of all. I picture my pack in the living room of my pack house. This time the links are all tangled together the way it should be.

    "Congratulations,  Stiles! You have completed your first test and passed with flying colors. It's time you returned to you mate and pack." I hear my mother's voice. As I turn to look at her the scene fades away.

    I wake up in our (Derek and Stiles) bed again. I hear a phone ringing downstairs. Derek answers it. It's Boyd. "Erica is awake! Deaton says to bring the pack. But she's already requested for Stiles."

    Before Derek can hang up, I'm up and dressed, running downstairs to greet the pack.
