She took his hand then and placed it-not ceremoniously, not dramatically-against her abdomen. Still flat beneath fabric. Still unchanged to the eye. His breath caught. "There," she said. "You're officially present." He didn't move. Barely breathed. "I don't feel anything." "It's early." "So it's ignoring me." She smirked. "Much like its parents." He snorted despite himself. "Rude." She leaned back, head resting against the stone wall. "You can talk, if you like." He stared at her. "To the child." "Yes." "What would I say." "Whatever you'd say to anyone you intend to terrify and protect simultaneously." He considered that, then leaned closer, lowering his voice as if the sea itself might overhear. "You will not be weak," he murmured. "You will not be small. And no one will ever touch you without consequence." Ariella hummed. "Subtle." "It's honest." She turned her head to look at him. "Try again. Less threat. More... reassurance." He grimaced. "I don't reassure." "You're doing fine." He sighed and tried again, awkwardly sincere. "You're... wanted." Her expression softened fully now. "And," he added, "your mother is very irritating but extremely competent." She laughed quietly. "Careful. I'll tell it you said that." He glanced down at her stomach, then back at her face. "It doesn't move." "Not yet." He frowned. "I expected something more dramatic." "Patience," she said. "Even dragons take time." They sat like that for a while, firelight flickering, the sea marking time beyond the walls. Eventually, Ariella shifted and yawned, the fatigue of the day finally asserting itself. Daemon noticed immediately. "You should sleep." "I will." "Now." "In a moment." Dragonstone stood watch-men loyal, banners snapping, a dragon coiled in the heights. Inside, two formidable people sat quietly with the smallest, strangest certainty either had ever known.

The last thing James "Jay" Hale ever imagined was to begrudgingly return to Beacon Hills, find out his older sister was murdered, and then be forced to go on a wild goose chase after some fuck ass Alpha that seemed to have a particular interest in ruining his life, all while fostering a very unfortunate and terrible alliance with Scott McCall and Stiles Stilinski to take said Alpha down, but here he was. ~ In which Derek's younger brother, the Hale baby, comes back to Beacon Hills six years later and suddenly has to fight not just for his own life, but also for the lives of his old friends and classmates. Through the journey of avenging his older sister and killing the Alpha responsible for her death, he also ends up uncovering family secrets and making more enemies along the way. On the brink of shattering from the weight of new responsibility and unending secrets, Jay has a choice: to retreat back into the solitude he'd created to protect himself from more pain OR rise from the ashes and shatter his defences to allow his wounded heart to finally mend. What will he decide? TEEN WOLF: **Book 1 of the Good Grief series** [Season 1&2] Love Interest: Stiles x Male OC Minor Isaac x Male OC Male Hale OC
