“Scott’s really cool.” Aleksi said with a smile, “I bet you’d like him! My cousin is Stiles though.”

Belle laughed. “I’ve met Stiles, both sober and not sober. He seems like a good guy.”

“Twice, and yes, it is; Terrifying.” he said pulling up a video of it that his phone had capture during his attempt to escape and call Scott to try to warn him the first time he’d encountered La Bete. “Here” he said, showing her the second or two video. 

“The Lawyer confirmed it, his name was listed in the will as Theo Dunbar, but due to foster records and foster parents, his name is Theo Raeken, a last name which he would like me to take by the way. He is not a huge fan of our parents. At all. I mean, that I do get. He’s inherited some money from them as well.” 

Belle watched the clip. It seemed so surreal, like something out of a movie. “You’re alright though? You didn’t get hurt?”

She sat for a moment, letting all this knew information sink in. “We’re not taking his name. I get why he doesn’t want our’s but we’re staying Dunbar.” Belle wasn’t going to change her name, her family wasn’t the best but this is who she was, who they were. “How old is he?”

“Obviously, and I’m not mentally ready to do the same. I’m jealous of you. The old me would have hated you.” he said honestly. “But me, no. I’m just, jealous but at the same time its not your fault and I want to move past that but I’m a very, divided person. But I’ve done good with that, and I will continue to do good.” he said looking at Belle, their eyes meeting. 

“Likewise. I promise I will look after Liam though, I’ve hardly stopped despite that he’s iffy on me around. Can ask him.” he said with a light laugh.

“If I could go back in time and stop them giving you up then I would, but I can’t do anything. I just wish this whole situation was different.” Belle sighed, shaking her head. Her life had become so messed up. 

“Thank you” Belle smiled. She wanted to help Liam but couldn’t, and t did sting a little he was able to do the one thing she felt like she was responsible. “This is one thing to we both agree on.”

Stiles groaned, hiding his face. “Yes, that’s the case. I am that kid. It was a really bad day, in my defense.” He replied. “Sober is a lot better, honestly. I can do more for myself.” He laughed. “So I guess you know about the stuff with Theo.”

Belle laughed. “I get it, it’s good. Doesn’t mean I’m not going to laugh about it.” She sighed, resting her head in her hands. “Yeah, I do. Finding out an ex-psycho werewolf is your twin brother isn’t great.”

“It’s a sorta of speciality of mine.” she explained to the girl, “My place, a while ago, was called being an emissary. We were needed to help aid the wolves in a pack as best we could. Think of us as the guidance councillors for werewolves young and old.” she chuckled, “I can’t know what’s happened between you, or even what he’s done in the past. I’m just working with the Theo I’ve met now. And he’s not the only one who’s attempting to change for the better.” she added, looking away slightly.

“Supernatural guidance counselors.” Belle laughed. “This whole supernatural thing is a lot bigger and harder to learn than I thought.” She sighed. “It’s just hard knowing what he’s done, it causes a block trying to move forward. You’re trying to change?”

[dancingdunbar-blog]

“I know Liam!” Aleksi said with a smile, “I mean, I’m not sure where he is but … my cousin might know? Or my cousin’s friend Scott, he’s with them a lot.”

“Oh, Scott! I’ve heard Liam mention him before. I haven’t met him though.” Belle said. “Who’s your cousin? Maybe I know him too?” She asked, smiling.

Stiles reached out to take her hand. “Uhm…not sure. It’s kind of..well, no, it’s extremely complicated.” He replied before pausing and tilting his head. “Wait…Belle. Like..Belle Dunbar?” Oh shit. If this was who he was thinking, he hoped she didn’t remember him being wasted on her front lawn. “Uhhh, I’m Stiles.” Much less inebriated and still in love with your brother Stiles, of course.

“Yeah, how did you...” Belle trailed off, realising how he knew her. “Oh, my god. You were Liam’s friend who passed out drunk outside our house.” She laughed. “Well, it’s very nice to meet you, Stiles. In more sober circumstances.”

[dancingdunbar-blog]

“I’m am very aware of Mr Raeken’s past by this point.” she said with a nod, “I’m a teacher here, they’re my students.” she paused for a moment, “I’ve been helping Liam calm himself, to not loose control of his… other self. As for Theo,” she paused again, “I am a member of his pack, and we’re working to keep this town safe.”

“Thank you for helping, Liam. I wish I could do something, now that our parents are gone I do feel responsible and I want to help, but helping your little brother with his werewolf issues does not exactly come with a guidebook.” Belle said, with a smile. It was good for her to know there were people around to help him. And Theo. “As for Theo, it’s just good know he’s changing his life around. It’s taking me time to get used to this and hearing from someone else that he’s changing, it helps.”

“Power. Family. Power to protect that Family” he said leaning back into their father’s recliner, taking a deep breath. “The Dread Doctors manipulated me into killing my foster sister and kidnapped me, I took her heart and they turned me into a Chimera. Its not a fun process. I was the first successful one. The only one to live through the process. After that, they tried to turn me into that shadow monster running loose in Beacon. La Bete.” he said watching her. 

“But when it didn’t work, they packed up and tried again later, Here. They promised me power and a pack, a family I never had.” he said coldly. He hated how bitter he was that she got to grow up with Liam, in a home with a family. But that wasn’t her fault. “They were going to kill The Mccall Pack, Liam too. I told them that I’d kill Scott, take his power after killing Liam. Then bring back Liam in my pack and take Mccall’s pack as my own. Sparing them. Only I failed and found out that Liam was my brother. Surprise.” he said with an upset laugh. “There is stuff I don’t want to talk about. But, you get the idea of my reasons.”

Belle sat their for a moment, silently trying to take all this new information in. She oddly, felt a little bad for him. She didn’t forgive or excuse his actions but he was twisted and manipulated by there terrible... People? Creatures? Things? Belle didn’t know what to call them, but whatever they were they used Theo and if Belle could forgive Liam when he was manipulated into trying to kill his Alpha, then she could try to understand Theo too.

“Okay.” Belle began. “I’m not excusing what you did, and I can’t just jump straight into a regular brother/sister relationship. But it was obvious you were manipulated by these Doctors.” She sighed, and looked him in the eye for the first time. “We can work on it, but you have to give me time to get used to this.”

“Uh, well…The Dread Doctors are still a thing, and this just in; they resurrected a giant werewolf serial killer…The Beast of Gevaudan; or La Bete.” he said. “It is just as terrifying as it sounds.” he nodded. “Trust me on that.” he spoke, having had two up close and personal encounters with it. Neither were fun. 

“Not with how much money was in the Will.” he said, unsure if Belle had heard how much money they’d been left. “Ethan, he’s not in my pack, I am still in my pack.” he said answering her questions. “Ethan, is in Theo’s pack.” he said. “And before you question why I’d let Theo’s pack into the house. Ethan’s a good guy, and Theo, is our brother….” 

“That sounds... Terrifying.” Belle said, not knowing any other way to describe it. “Wait, have you been against this thing?” She asked, worriedly. Belle wished she never had to leave again, there wasn’t much she could do against these things, but at least she’d have been here if Liam needed any help. 

“What?” Belle was suddenly speechless. The guy who used her little brother, trying to get him to kill someone he cared about, and hurt and tried to kill so many other people in this town, was her brother?

[dancingdunbar-blog]

“I’d wager it’s one of the nicer ones as well.” she chuckled, watching the other for a moment before sighing, that was as good as an admittance. “Oh yea,” she nodded, “And then some.”

“Unfortunately, yes it is.” Belle sighed. “Especially Theo...” She shook her head, trying to forget what he’d done. “So, how do you know them?”

“Yeah, well, I figured you should hear a lot of it from me and not some lawyer.” he said walking with her. “Its a lot and a bit, yeah. And since you’ve been gone, things got a lot worse so, lets get home before dark.” he said as he got in the limo and laughed. 

“I handle money fine, this is really the only thing I spend it on. And for two hours, only cost three hundred” he laughed a little. “Oh, and we have a roommate. He’s in the guest room.” he said. “He’s a werewolf too so.” he shrugged. “Figured that would be important to tell you before we get to the lawyer stuff.”

“Wonderful.” Belle said, dryly, climbing into the limo beside Liam. “How much worse are we talking exactly?” She wasn’t going to lie, she was slightly worried about their safety in this town.

“Yeah, three hundred dollars is a lot of money.” Belle shook her head, laughing. “Oh, great. What’s his name? Is he in your pack? You are still in the pack after what happened with your Alpha?” She suddenly remembered the things he told her when she came back before.

Theo just gave a slight shrug. He’d done those things, he’d done even more, and there wasn’t anything he could do to change that. The only thing he could do now was redeem himself and protect those he cared for. “I’ll tell you what I told Liam and the others. I’ll answer any question you have honestly.” he said before deciding on a spot sitting on their father’s recliner; shifting a bit to get comfortable. 

“Yeah, well…brings me some comfort that they weren’t there for any of us.” he said, his tone still bitter. “I just, that was harsh. Sorry.” he said calmly before sighing. 

Belle stared at her hands, trying to think what to say. “Why?” She asked suddenly; it the first thing she thought. “Why would you do what you did? I don’t get why you would do that.” Belle looked up at him.

“I get that, I do.” She said, it’s the one thing she did about the whole situation so far. “I mean, it was hard losing my parents but not as bad as it would for some. I was more worried about Liam, being here on his own.”

[dancingdunbar-blog]

“Liam and Theo?” she asked, her eyes widening, though as she looked she noticed a few similarities. “I know them… they’re, both very interesting boys.” she assumed the girl must have some knowledge of what they are.

“That is definitely one way to describe them.” Belle said, rising an eyebrow, curiously. “Do you...” She trailed off, not want to say the full question out loud.

Stiles turned at a voice, giving a light laugh. “Uhhh, mostly?” He asked, unsure. “I’ve got something I’m preparing to talk to someone about.” He said, shrugging.

Belle walked over and sat across from him. “Anything I can help with?” She offered, and held out her hand in introduction. “I’m Belle.”

[dancingdunbar-blog]

“Oh, um, who were you looking for? Maybe I can help?” he offered.

“My brother, Liam. Liam Dunbar. Do you know him?” Belle replied.

[dancingdunbar-blog]

Maybe I’ll talk to my mom about it, she might know some kind of coping skill or something. She’s a consular.

“That sounds like a good idea. She’ll probably know more about it.”
