Something About Them // Teen Wolf [Book 5]

Apotheosis part 3

We arrived at the animal clinic where we found Deaton taking care of Hayden who also had run into the beast. 'How'd it go?' Deaton asked when we walked inside. 'The beast is gone and Mason's back.' Liam said. 'Theo's gone.' Kira added. 'Oh and eh, Sam's eyes turned red.' Scott said. All eyes turned to me again and I waved awkwardly. 'Hi.'

'Wait, does that mean she's a true alpha, like Scott?' Hayden asked confused. 'How did it happen?' Deaton asked, he was still taking care of Hayden's wound. 'I tried to save Theo.' I said causing both Hayden and Deaton to look at me rather confused. I rolled my eyes and let out a sigh. 'Well we're always going on about how we don't kill people, right? And I know Theo was an evil little bastard but it just felt wrong. So I tried to save him, even though I couldn't. That's when my eyes turned red.' I explained. 'Can a pack even have two alphas?' Mason asked. 'Oh I don't care, I don't even want this! I am not alpha material!' I chuckled. 'Well I don't think you have much of a choice, Sam.' Deaton replied. 'Doesn't anyone remember the pack that existed of only alphas?' Lydia asked. 'Yeah...most of them ended up dead though...' I noticed. 'This pack is already pretty extraordinary to begin with. I don't think this will be that more challenging.' Deaton smiled. 'Oh god.' I groaned.

'Okay Hayden, I've managed to stabilize the injury. But considering you're a chimera I don't know how, or if, you'll heal.' Deaton said. 'We can still take you to the hospital.' Scott suggested. 'I've already dead there once.' She replied with a shake of her head. 'It's your choice.' Liam told her. 'I know.' She said and she looked up at me. 'You're an alpha now, right?'

My eyes widened as I realised what was going on. 'Oh no, no, you don't want me to do this...I have zero experience I mean...'

'Sam. I trust you.' She said. I looked over at Scott who gave me an encouraging smile. 'Okay then.' I sighed as Hayden extended her arm towards me. 'Don't hate me if I do this wrong.' I chuckled and she smiled and shook her head. I took one last breathe before leaning down and sinking my fangs into her arm.

I walked into the police station and looked around searching for Stiles. 'You saved their lives. Mason, Malia. Half the population of Beacon Hills.' I heard the sheriff and I smiled before walking towards his office. The door was open and he noticed me walking in from the corner of his eyes. Stiles, however, didn't. 'That's gotta feel pretty good.' The sheriff said. 'It did. For a while.' Stiles replied. 'But it's something you wanna feel again.' His father said, already sending me a knowing smile. 'Yeah...Yeah I think so.'

'Well then.' I began and Stiles' head spun around to look at me. 'Guess we're looking at a future career in law enforcement.' I smiled. Stiles grinned and jumped up, he wrapped his arms around my waist and spun me around. 'You sure you're ready for that, Sammy? Dating a cop?' The sheriff asked me with a chuckle. 'Well I sort of have been dating a cop this whole time so...yeah I think I am.' I smiled. 'Okay kids, as adorable as this all is, you still have to go to school.'

Stiles and I said our goodbyes and left the police station. 'Hey, hold up a second.' Stiles said as I was about to get in the jeep. 'What is it?' I asked and he suddenly looked very nervous. 'I heard about what you did...trying to save Theo. I know I wasn't his biggest fan but...that is the reason why I am so in love with you. You will even try to save people like him. You are so amazing, Sammy.' He said. 'Why are you getting so cheesy all of a sudden?' I chuckled. 'I'm always cheesy, you know that. I just... I want you to know that I will always, always try to save you. Okay? I know I don't have super strenght and my eyes don't glow but I will always save you.'

'Baby, I know you would but what are you...' He cut me off by pressing his lips to mine. I smiled into the kiss and leaned back against the jeep. He placed one of his hands on my waist and the other grabbed my hand. I frowned when I felt something cold in my hand. I looked down and opened my hand. 'Stiles...'
