For the past six years, Stiles raised his only son Noah and they were happy. Their life was perfect and they didn’t need any changes, especially something called Derek Hale in it.
Stiles n'a pas pris le même chemin que la meute et s'est construit une bulle autour de lui et sa famille. Mais quand celui qu'il ne croyait jamais revoir revient, le laissera-t-il l'aider ? Pas sûr... Surtout quand il n'a plus confiance en personne.
Veronica has never met the man her father and her uncle keep talking about, but her daddy always has a smile on his face when the man is mentioned. Her daddy has been sad and alone for far too long and she decides she's going to change that.
Deputy Derek's first day of work changes his life in more ways than one. Stiles finds something she wasn't looking for, while picking up a shift at the diner.
“Then why are you here?” This isn’t exactly a conversation Derek should be leading, this is technically Laura’s job, but he can’t contain the curiosity. With another long, silent moment the man’s eyes reach his and Derek doesn’t even know where to begin to unravel the emotion there.
Stiles learns about Peter's scars.
Derek is a police officer, just recently moved to Beacon Hills, and possibly nursing a crush on the really hot, really powerful doctor with the twin sons.
They never talked about Zena’s mother, or Peter’s family. They spoke little about where they came from and even less about what drove them out. But they did talk about everything else under the sun. Hobbies, passions, books, Zena, and work. For all of that they didn’t go into each other’s spaces, to allow each other into their homes seemed a step too far for either to take. Not when Peter hadn’t allowed anyone into his personal space in years and Stiles. Well. He had a little girl to think of before letting someone into their lives permanently.
Neither seemed to realize what they had was already changing them all.
There is a man in the woods.
He feels a chill running down his back and he gets up. The stranger is at least 30 ft away from them. Stiles’ first instinct is to run towards the kids and get them as quick as possible into the house. But he didn’t want to give his back to the stranger.
He straightens his body in a threatening posture. The kids stop playing, sensing the unexpected tension from him. Without looking away from the stranger who hasn't moved, he makes a sign and they obediently run inside. Huh, that’s a first.
Some of the tensions dissipates knowing the kids are safer, but he knows the danger is not gone yet. Stiles takes a few but firm steps forward, towards the stranger.
”This is private property!” he barks loud enough for him to be heard. The stranger’s eyes glow and Stiles can’t help but shift his eyes in response. He growls and his claws come out ready to fight.
There isn’t a man in the woods.
Stiles rejoined the team for a case and the tension is thick. It interferes with their work and the job goes from dangerous to lethal. All of California is in danger and Stiles has to put aside his feelings against Paige and the Hales. He's pretty sure he's committed treason by telling the Hale classified information, but he needs to make sure Jason is safe.
Paige and Ralph escape with Derek and Jason with the rest of the Hales as Stiles stays with the team and tries to save the state...the odds are not in their favor.
Let's recap: Happy and Walter are technically married, Walter and Stiles have broken up, Derek's feelings for Stiles are getting stronger, the team is shakey and full of tension. During a case in which Stiles doesn't go, it seems as something happened between Walter and Paige and Stiles finds them kissing. Stiles takes a break from the Team but still hangs out with the team members(minus Walter and Paige) and is on friendlier terms with Derek.
There's a new crisis that calls for Stiles to re-join the team and he does for the sake of duty but it's clear the there is nothing in the air but tension.
