The Serpent Wolf - A Riverdale x Teen Wolf crossover AU

2.

A few days later, I sit with Lydia and Malia in their flat explaining the events of the other night. 

"Good thing Scott was there huh?" Malia asks.

"I mean yeah, my pride was a little hurt but I guess hurt pride is better than being dead." I joke.

"Why was your pride hurt?" Malia asks.

"Do you have to ask?" I laugh. Malia nods "I guess I want to prove that I can handle myself..."

"Well thank god Scott was there Logan! That omega could've and would've ripped your throat out!" Lydia reminds me.

"I know... But -"

"No buts, you would've been killed this time." Lydia says.

"Is that a banshee premonition or just outright pessimism?" I ask.

"Does it matter?" Lydia says, rolling her eyes at me. I huff at her, and we both chuckle.

"Do you think that omega is really trying to hunt the serpents?" I ask.

"I'm not sure, I guess we'll find out." Malia shrugs.

"I hope not..." I say sadly.

"What even are the serpents?" Lydia asks.

"There's two sides to Riverdale. The Northside and the Southside, the southside serpents are a gang. I was raised on the southside and my parents, all my friend's families, and probably now all my friends are serpents." I say.

"Are you?" Malia asks.

"A serpent?" I ask, she nods.

"Well does this look like Riverdale to you?" I ask, Malia rolls her eyes. "I have a serpent tattoo in honor of my parents and the place I came from, but for a female to become an official serpent, you have to do a traditional serpent dance. But FP, the leader of the serpents, wouldn't let me do it."

"Do I even want to know what the serpent dance is?" Lydia asks, I shrug.

"It's an old-fashioned thing, a heavily sexist dance a girl has to do to become a serpent." I say, Lydia crinkles her nose at the thought.

"I'm sure everything will be fine, Logan." Lydia says, putting a hand on my shoulder.

"And besides, you didn't tell the guy anything! So, he doesn't know where to find them." Malia says

"Or he was testing my loyalty and already knows where they are..." I sigh.

After Malia drives me home I wander into Scott and Stiles' place and find Scott sitting working on a paper. I end up sitting upside down on the couch while watching tv, waiting for Stiles to come home.

"What's your paper about?" I ask.

"It's just about dos and don'ts in animal care, stuff I already know." Scott says, still very much in thought.

"Ah, cool, nerd stuff." I joke.

"Fuck off." He chuckles. "Why are you waiting for Stiles for again?" Scott asks absentmindedly.

"He texted saying we could go get food. I've hardly left the house in like 2 weeks, I mean there was the other night but we both know how that went." I tell him.

"I would've taken you." Scott says, snapping back into reality.

"I thought you'd be busy doing all the future vet stuff." I say

"I'm allowed to take breaks." Scott laughs.

"Then you come with us?" I say.

"Maybe." Scott says. I roll my eyes at him and try to think of something witty to say.
