Chapter Text
The silence between them was thick with tension not the type thst usually made scott feel warm and cost. His enhanced hearing allowed for scott to hear the rapid beat of his mothers heart thst was usually steady and smooth. His mother dident even look at him in the eye as they were on the road in the car .
Scott stared out the passenger-side window, the passing streetlights blurring together as dread coiled tighter and tighter in his stomach. His worst fear was unfolding right in front of him. She knew. She had seen him. All of him.
The image replayed in his mind on an endless loop—her face frozen in shock and horror, eyes wide as they took in glowing eyes, sharp fangs, inhuman strength. Monstrous features. The look on her face hadn’t just been fear. It had been disbelief. Like she was staring at a stranger wearing her son’s skin. She thought he was a monster . And the thought hurt more than any wound he’d ever healed from.
If even his own mother saw him that way… maybe she wasn’t wrong. His thoughts spiraled, each one darker than the last. Did she still want him? Did she still love him. The questions clawed at him relentlessly. Would she send him away? Kick him out? No—she wouldn’t. She was his mom. She wouldn’t abandon him
he was brought out of his thoughts by the car pulling to a stop. Scott relises they have arrived home. Dread fills his stomach as he relises the conversation with his mom is unavoidable and she will find out how much of a monster he really is.
Turning his head he sees his mom is still not even looking at him. His mother is the one person who he doesent want to loose. Scott doesnt want to think about what it would be like if his mother left him. Just like his dad. Yeah that was his fault too. Why else would his dad leave. His mom leaving. Will also be on him. He has no one else to blame. But that doesent mean he wants to loose her
Their sitting in the car for what feels like hours before scott works up the courage to break the silence
"Mum please will you look at me" he pleads despretley but his heart sinks as she doesnt
“inside now" She orders firmly not making eye contact. Scott can smell the mixture of anger and fear radiating of of her scent. Even when he was in trouble. His mum was never this angry with him before
“NOW" she barks. The volume of his voice makes him flinch. All he can do is nod as he rushes to open the car door and remove him self, so she feels safe now that the threat has been removed. He moves inside the house with inhuman speed. Waiting for the inevitable confrontation with his mother. As soon as he is inside, he tries to rush straight to his room in order to create distance between him and his mum but shes is already inside before she gets a chance. "Scott" she calls. Her tone is diffrent from the one his used to but he tries not to let it get to him shes still his mother and will love him, right? But ad his mum stares him down with an intense gase that lacks the affection that it usually holds.
“yes mum" he replies not wanting to stur up anymore trouble for himself
"i want you out of the house by tomorrow morning" she voices and scott freezes. He waits a minute hoping to hear that she was just jokeing but it never came. He relises she was actually serious his mouth opens in shock, not really beliving what she was saying. He goes to open his mouth to speak but his mom holds up a hand to stop him
“dont scott you lied to me and kept things from me, i cant trust you. It will only be for a couple of days until i can get my head around what you are"
guilt churned in his stomach. He put his mom through so much pain snd it was all his fault he lied to protect her but it backfired and now she looked at him like he was a stranger at not her son. Inside his wolf wimpered at the regection of his mum. Both his human and wolf side saw her as pack. The pain of regection became a physical ache that felt like his heart was being ripped out of his chest.
he tried to move towards her but his mum backed away from him. She was aftaid of him. Her scent reaked of fear. But not only did her scent show it but the way she looked at him was like she was waiting for him to attack. If he made his mum afraid then mabey he really was a monster.
He dident wait for his mum to speak and ran with supernatural speed up to his room. His body was on auto pilot packing cloths touletries and essentails into his small duffle back. He haf no idea what he was going to do next. All he knew was that he had to get out of here.
Once he was done with tears in his eyes he climed out his window. He dident want his mom to see him, see the monster he truely was. Outside he could feel the the cold air of the night bled theough his jacket but he kept moving as if he was driven by instinct.
He knew he had one place left to go it was a long shot but he knew it was the only option he had his instincts were roaring inside of him his wolf was howling for an alpha. Derek. His human side refused to acknowledge Derek as his alpha. But his wolf was begging to belong to the alpha to be safe. He dident have enough energy to refuse. So he let his feet carry him to the only person who could understand. Derek
