We have our moments, Erin said smiling thinking about stiles and the last time they were together. So, Erin said turning her attention back to me, we must have a party for you. A welcome back to Beacon Hills party. leave all the planning to me. Did you get your schedule? Has Scott seen you yet?
I knew two things instantly, the first being that as soon as I walked away Erin would be texting stiles the "OMG guess who i just ran into" text and the second being there was no way I was going to be able to get out of this Party without telling my old friend why I was even back in beacon hills.
Erin, I started. Listen about the party.....We both know that isnt the best Idea. My family and I moved back to Beacon HIlls not by choice but because I was chosen to participate in a internship at Hale Enterprises. Im not trying to be mean I do want to spend time with you but....thats when i caught a scent. A scent that i couldn't discribe at that moment but one I would grow to learn about. One that should come second nature to me but hadn't.
Stiles, smiles walking up to erin kissing her temple, Hi beautiful Stiles said to Erin keeping a hand rested on the small of her back. We have to get to class Audrey, its nice seeing you. Ill let Scott know your back. Erin and stiles were the quinesential highschool couple, both nausating and lovey dovey. I had to wonder how the Sherrif and Coach Finnstock and Jane felt about this budding relationship between their kids.
Victoria was in the kitchen, the smell of Café et tartines beurrées coming from the kitchen. The only time my mother cooked the french delicasy was when my grandfather was in town. This was a man I had no desire to see. All i wanted was to go up to my room. I had been invisioning that picture of Peter Hale all day and all I wanted was to focus on my own needs even if i could only have five minutes. I could get off in five minutes shower and be back down here in time to hear gerards speech on how our ancestors tracked and killed Loup-Goru I realized to myself. I grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and kissed my mothers temple. She was so engrossed in reading a french article on her tablet she didn't even realize I was home. I peeked towards my fathers office. I spent lots of hours in there with him listening to him talk watching him read. His office door was always open. On occasion when special guests would arrive after dinner they would retire to my dads office to talk about the next hunting trip. His office doors been closed alot more often now. I walked up the stairs recongizing my clean escape when I heard her voice.
Theres my beautiful neice kate said. I heard about your good fortune. Internship at Hale Enterprises. For the life of me I cant phantom why they brought you back here. We worked so hard to hide all of this from you. I woudlnt have risked life and limb to take you If i felt or even thought that you would have been better off in that family Audrey. Your going to turn down that posistion. You dont want to break our hearts do you.
As I watched my aunt walk down the stairs I realized 2 things. the first was I have never hated anyone as much as I hated her. She was narcissistic. The second thing was that she kidnapped me. I had been lied to my whole life. If i wasnt an Argent who was I or what was I. Was I a Hale. Did Erins grandma Loraine the eccentric lady that rubbed Gerard the wrong way all thoes years ago know the truth. Was that why we had moved to San Fransisco. I knew coming back here I would find out about my history but nothing could prepaire me for what they were going to tell me.
Theres things about this place you need to be prepaired for Gerard started. Audrey do you know why this town is called Beacon hills. Where they got the name from and the signifigance of it. At this point my blood is boiling. I put down my baguette and looked at my grandfather. Look you psychotic little shit i began. between you and your lunitic of a daughter the only thing I know about this town is that you kidnapped me or she did on your instruction. Im not sure which one. I had friends here and you didnt want that. You felt like they were odd.Erin, my best friend from kindergarden was the first one to greet me. wanted to have a party for me and i was rude to her. All I want is to live a normal childhood...HERE in beacon hills. so you 4 adults figure out how I can do that because Im not leaving this town again withiout finding out the truth.
After my shower I looked at myself in the mirrior. its amazing what being angry did to one when you were horny to begin with. Audrey I heard my father say causing me to turn around. About what happened down there. Im sorry you found out this way. I had no intentions for kate to tell you how she did. I wanted to tell you myself he began. When kate found you after the file you were scared and you were shifting. They could hear your bones breaking as the transformation started. The group of men I sent her out with told me about you. When kate had left to go back to the ruins i went into our family warehouse and i found you chained to a fence. The electric current would have been enough to kill you. I carried you out of there and brought you back here. Our family has a code audrey. We hunt thoes who hunt us. My sister, My father they didnt go by that code. I do
