"Why couldn't you leave her out of this?" Derek had yelled to his uncle.

"What, don't tell me she's your mate. Or is she just another mistake?" Peter eyed the girl completely knocked out on the floor.

"The only mistake here is you."

"Derek, you need to listen to me. Please, just give me time to explain." Peter had begged. Derek reluctantly gave him a hard nod and got up from the floor as his body began the healing process fairly quickly. Peter stalked over towards Katherine.

"Don't." Derek threatened, his eyes flashing blue. Peter turned around, waving a finger.

"I don't think so Derek, don't do anything irrational. There are lots of other people in Beacon Hills I could turn, and I have a feeling you'd prefer her alive and a werewolf over dead and buried in the ground." Derek's jaw clenched.

"I don't care."

"Upsy daisy." Peter scooped the girl up into his arms, "if you really don't care Derek, I could change her right now." Derek stayed silent, a rock hard expression on his face.

"That's what I thought." Peter swung the girl over his shoulder and began walking out of the room.

"Where are you going?" Derek watched his every move like a hawk.

"We are going to a lacrosse game." As the two werewolves headed towards the exit of the hospital, a terrified Stiles emerged from behind the reception desk.

"Kat!" He noticed the girl draped over the Alpha's shoulder. Stiles had boldly walked in front of Peter.

"Move, Stiles." With ease, Stiles was pushed aside and down by Peter. His eyes fell on Derek trailing behind his uncle.

"Derek! Do something!" Stiles yelled from the floor. Derek gave him a look that told Stiles nothing. It was unreadable.

"Are you siding with your psycho uncle? What's wrong with you?" Stiles cried. Derek simply walked away, following his uncle to a car parked towards the back of the building. Peter opened the trunk and tossed the girl in like she was a rag doll. Derek glared at him with anger spread across his stony features. Peter knew that Katherine was something that could be used against his nephew. That's why he chose her in the first place. And this was why Derek didn't want to care, because she could be yet another person taken away from him. But somehow, she broke through his 'shield' and somehow saw the good in him. Over the past few weeks, Derek had realized that she was just as alone as he was. From the nights he had parked himself outside her house, he had learned that her father rarely talked to her and she pushed away any sort of budding relationship with her mother. She was alone, and she was more like Derek then anyone would realize. As Peter shut the trunk, Derek realized it was time to push her away. For Katherine's own safety. There would have to be a way he could persuade his uncle to leave her alone, to stop these games. He could choose Jackson instead; whom he had learned from Katherine knew about Scott's secret. They could all leave town, go find other wolves to make Peter's pack stronger...like he wanted.
