Soulmate Of A True Alpha
Scene 24

I open my eyes slowly and Stiles pulls me close to him, placing a k**s on my head.

Stiles: Good morning to you!

I smile and press myself against him. I love being able to hold him close and k**s him as I please. Coming to his place last night was the best idea I’ve ever had in my life. We spent a long time in bed talking and laughing and then I picked up my phone. I’ve got about ten calls missing from Lydia and Scott. Oops

Me: I’ll be right back. I have to call Lydia and Scott.

Stiles: No problem.

We smile at each other and I go into the bathroom. I call Lydia first and she answers almost immediately.

Lydia: I really need to teach you what a McCall phone is for!

Me: Sorry, I was with Stiles…

Lydia: With Stiles?!!? So this is finally happening! Will you stop annoying us with your feelings?!

I laughed

Me: Why don’t you tell me why you’ve been calling me so much?

Lydia: My grandma might not be dead.

Does everyone tend to fake death in this town or is it just a feeling?

Lydia: Hannah?

Me: I’m sorry, why would you say that?

Lydia: I went to the lake house yesterday and found this…

She’s sending me a photo. It’s a piece of paper with the same numbers and letters you see before you decode part of the list.

Me: How could she know?

Lydia: I don’t know!

I gasp

Me: We need to talk to Noah about this anyway.

At the police station

After explaining everything to Stiles, we joined Lydia at the police station and tried to make Noah understand the situation. Out of the corner of our eye, we see a completely naked man with blackened skin walk up to a police officer and beat him. Noah runs out of the office and threatens the man with his rifle but in the process, the attacking officer who was trying to defend himself inadvertently shoots Noah and Noah collapses to the ground screaming.

Stiles: Daddy!

Me: Noah!

Stiles runs to his father but I jump on the man, mad with rage. He turns his head towards me and… Parrish?!!? I kick him, making him drop the officer and he turns to me.

Parrish: Why are you doing this, Hannah? That man tried to kill me!

Me: What?

Lydia comes to meet us at the race and gives Parrish a jacket so he can … Hide…

Lydia: We have to go, now!

Me: I can’t leave Stiles and Noah!

Lydia: Stay with them, I’ll give you an update, we’re going to Derek’s!

I nod and run over to Stiles who’s finishing up a tourniquet around his dad’s wound. His hands are shaking all over and I take them from him. He looks at me and takes a deep breath.

Me: Panicking won’t do you any good, we need to call an ambulance.

He nods quickly and reaches for his phone. I lean over to Noah who’s in agony.

Me: Keep your eyes open, everything’s going to be fine.

I look at his wounds and think back to a moment with Scott.

Flashback

It was a few days after I learned about the supernatural. I was preparing dinner while my mother and brother put away the clean dishes. In a false move, I cut myself with the knife and b***d dripped from my arm. Scott quickly came towards me and put his hand on the wound. His veins turn dark black and when he takes his hand away, my wound is almost healed.

Me: How did you do that?

Scott: With my werewolf gifts, I can absorb pain and some of the wound, but not all of it.

I nod and smile at him.

Me: Thank you.

He smiles back

Scott: There’s no problem.

He hugs me and I smile. I really do have the best big brother

End of Flashback

I smile and instinctively put my hand on Noah’s wound and my veins turn black. The pain of the bullet hits and I tense up. When I take my hand away, the wound is no longer bleeding and has closed up a little. I smile with pride and Noah takes my hand.

Noah: Thank you

I smile

Me: There’s no problem.
