Mermaids ahoy

[burnedwolf]

 It's been a while since Peter has smelled the ocean. It brought back hazy memories of summer vacations with his family and old friends he has never seen ever since the fire. He didn't even remember them.

Though, this beach was different. Peter deliberately tried to find a place they had never visited with his family, and he didn't want to go in the summer. Spring break was fine. Spring had a different smell, even on the beach. Now it will have the smell of the memories with his mate.

Peter was standing on the porch of the house they have rented for this trip, waiting for Stiles to carry the remaining bags from the car. He was eying the shore in the late afternoon sun. Some would say the shore was even ugly and that's why the rent was so cheap. It wasn't a popular place, it wasn't for parties and drinking, it was for... finding magical artifacts. But most importantly mermaids.

But it will be perfect for what they planned, Peter wondered.

"Coming?" he called Stiles then.

It surprises Stiles too, honestly, with having gotten to know Peter more intimately these last years, then and now. It surprises him that Peter didn't take off the moment he realized Stiles could mark him, that he was powerful enough to do so.

But then again, maybe that's why he stayed. He has no illusions as to why Peter kept him in the beginning, his spark was too attractive not to. But it's become more than that now, and that too is scary on it's own- for both of them.

"You know I won't," Stiles murmurs against Peter's mouth. "But if I ever do, I won't stop you."

"You can try, but I'll come back anywhere to finish the job." Peter growls. He knows how power is. He had it and he's gotten greedy. He only knows Stiles for a short while and if he has at least a little idea about the boy... he may be tempted. And Peter would be proud, even then. But it wouldn't stop him to take Stiles on, no matter what.

"But I know you won't, for now." he adds with a smirk, kissing the boy again. "It also means they will now soon, too."

Stiles grins a little. He knows if it came down to it, for whatever reason, they would likely be evenly matched when the time came. But, to be honest, Stiles has grown quite attached to Peter and doesn't see himself wanting to take him out any time soon.

"I know," he mumbles into the kiss. "And I don't care anymore, if they find out. They can't stop me, stop us."

"That they definitely can't. Not anymore." Peter agrees quietly. "Not while we're pack." he adds softly, absently stroking Stiles' skin he can reach.

Yes, pack. Mates. Partners. Now equals. And that's frightening and exciting, and Peter feels his wolf burn with power and desire to see what the future holds for them. For the hope that Beacon Hills will be theirs and the Hale pack will be feared and respected.

((ooc: No worries! I've been busy with work so I haven't really paid much attention to tags lately, haha.))

Stiles knows that if the pack gives him trouble over this, Peter will have his back. Scott had been unwilling to let Stiles be his emissary, telling him it would be too dangerous- not that what they do on a regular basis isn't? That had been his counter argument, but Scott didn't budge. He knows there might be a chance that being Peter's mate and emissary might cost him their friendship. He's prepared for that.

He's not sure, however, how his father will handle it and if Stiles himself will be able to handle whatever negative reaction he might have. Stiles just hopes it won't be too terrible.
