Um so yeah basically I suck at theories/meta but I do have an idea about Braeden.
I'm just going to say it: I think Braeden is Satomi's pack's emissary.
In order to be an emissary, you don't have to be a werewolf. All the emissaries we know of were druids, like Deaton and Jennifer, Ms. Morrel i dont even know how to spell her name im sorry. Haven't we been suspecting all along that Braeden is a druid?
It seems to me like Satomi's pack has been in Beacon Hills for quite a while now. So, they would have been there when the Alpha Pack was there as well. That was when Braeden came into the show, saving Isaac's life and being scarred by Deucalion. Her pack would have been having pretty much the same problems with them as Scott's.
Then she kind of disappeared for a while, but where and why? Why would she leave her pack and ally with hunters in Mexico?
Well, we pretty much assumed she was dead after Deucalion clawed her throat, so maybe her pack did too. Maybe she was too ashamed of her failure to go back. Maybe she had a falling out with her pack. There are lots of possibilities for her leaving Beacon Hills.
There's also the fact that Braeden's character was written way before Satomi's. This is true, but maybe the writers wanted a way to justify Braeden coming back to BH, so they brought back Satomi as well in order to have these characters back on the show.
Honestly it's just a thought and this theory is written out horribly, but I guess I just wanted to kind of have it out there.
