Bite the Moonlight & Bleed Gold by raisesomehale

Sterek - Complete - Merman AU - Words: 86,432 Rating: Explicit

Seven years after being tricked and imprisoned by the Argents, Derek Hale finds himself off the blistering coasts of Antarctica aboard the Argentum Domina, an illegal prison ship out of which the Argents operate their behemoth, underground poaching empire. Derek, a bitter, pack-less alpha, spends his days working off his servitude by poaching creatures for Gerard to sell on the Black Magic Market, just trying to retain his sanity as he earns back the years of his life one capture at a time. But there doesn't seem to be an end, or future, in sight for him. Until, everything changes when Allison Argent brings him a capture case with a reward price so ludicrous that he has no choice but to accept.

The only problem is, the target creature shouldn't even exist.

Derek is flung fast into the deep webbings of a bigger mystery than he could have ever imagined. And discovers that, like this enchanting creature, not everything is as it seems. Can Derek unmask the schemes that threaten not only his life, but the state of the very world itself? And if doing so means losing the unexpected love he finds along the way, will he be willing to make that sacrifice?

THOUGHTS: The author put a lot of work into creating this, and it shows! This was a passion project for sure. It's a complete novel! From beginning to end, the story flowed and unfolded beautifully. My heart could barely handle it at times! It's got Merman Stiles, which immediately captured my attention, and the world and lore built around Derek and Stiles is just fascinating! It's one of those stories I'll save and reread. It's AU, of course, but there are so many elements of canon woven throughout it's awesome how the author put it all together. I LOVED this! 10/10 would recommend clearing your calendar to read this one!

Sterek Fic Rec - November 2022. Wow, lots of things happening this month so I didn’t get through all my reading as quickly as I usually do. Sorry for the delay. Here’s the next round of fic recs!

Something New Is Going to Happen by dragon_temeraire (1/1 | 4K | Teen)

Stiles accidentally discovers that their school mascot is super cute.

Kiss me if you must by raisesomehale (1/1 | 2K | Teen)

Derek is wrapping up the announcement on the Elves that have come into town when Stiles gets a text from Danny, asking where he is, and that if Stiles isn't there when his shift comes, he is passing any kiss induced diseases onto him.

OR

The one where Stiles has a shift at the kissing booth and everyone secretly wants his dick.

On Building an IKEA Den for an Alpha Werewolf. by orphan_account | podfic by  churkey (2/2 | 13K | Mature)

Senior Prom is coming up, and Stiles doesn't have a date. Additionally, Derek has an unfurnished apartment, and no one to take him to IKEA.

Wrong Number by greenleaf (1/1 | 9K | Teen)

Even wrong numbers can get it right sometimes.

...Or one where Stiles dials the wrong number and keeps forgetting to change it, while Derek ends up going along for the ride and sees Stiles four times before Stiles meets him.

It's In Our Lungs, Our Blood by xxjinchuurikixx (1/1 | 9K | Explicit)

“It’s… it’s amplifying urges. Primal urges influenced by thoughts my wolf has already had.” “So… so, do you want me? Did you… before?” “Yes, Stiles. Always.” “Then let me help.” * Derek gets hit by some sex pollen, and only Stiles can work it out of his system.

seems to me it's chemistry by HalfFizzbin (1/1 | 4K | Teen)

Awkward Nerd Derek has been crushing on Handsome Jock Stiles since forever—so getting paired with him on a Chemistry project is definitely the best/worst thing that's ever happened to him.

Why the hell does it have to be a Dämonfeuer? by Winchesterek (1/1 | 916 | Teen)

Stiles is a Grimm hunting a dragon.

Scent Marking For Dummies by Hatteress (goddammitstacey) | podfic by sallysparrow017 (1/1 | 8K | Teen)

Stiles is almost used to being chased around the school by werewolves at this point. Having to share a bed with Derek freaking Hale, on the other hand, is just needlessly complicating his life.

Shelter by five_ht | podfic by chemm80 (1/1 | 7K | Explicit)

After the rave, Stiles can't go home, and Derek doesn't want him to.

Wolfed In A Good Way by LadyDrace (1/1 | 2K | Explicit)

Stiles and Derek make out. Derek accidentally goes wolfy. Stiles is a HUGE fan of this.

princecharmingwinks special mention (Soft Derek kills me in the best way and the dialogue in this fic made me melt!)

Vodka happened by GreyHaven (1/1 | 6K | Teen)

5 times Stiles has no brain to mouth filter and turns into a malfunctioning octopus, and 1 time Derek does. Featuring drunk Stiles and pining Derek, a giggling fit, lurid blue vomit that costs Derek a car, a vodka incident and a kiss.

I’ve been listening to a few more podfics now (ensuring I also comment on the wonderful fics themselves as well!) so if I have listened instead of read, I’ve included both in the recommendation so everyone can take their pick.

September Fic Rec😜

Yo, Yo, Yo! Back to school! Too all the parents that might have a little more time, here's a rec! and too all the student that need a get away from school, here's a rec!🥰🥰🥰🥰❤️ Happy Reading you guys!❤️

And You Say You're Alone by bi_leigh_bi - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 30314, sterek)

Between the kanima, the Argents, and Peter's untimely return from the dead, everything has fallen apart. Stiles and Derek try to put their lives back together once the crisis has passed. Stiles deals with the aftermath of being tortured, and the distance growing between he and Scott. Derek attempts to become a stronger alpha and keep his pack safe, and that includes Stiles.

The Well of Living Waters by kalpurna - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 3022, sterek)

King Derek takes a consort.

a year in sleepovers by sarcasticfishes - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 3370, sterek)

The first time Stiles ended up in Derek’s bed was New Year’s Eve. He was seventeen, a little drunk, and he begged.

as if he were the sun by impossiblespark - (Rating: T, Words: 9202, sterek)

“Scott, I told you, I’m- oh.” Stiles cuts himself off when he opens his eyes and turns to find Derek standing by his open window, brows furrowed dangerously, jaw clenched, nostrils flaring.

His breath catches painfully somewhere in his throat. 

He winces almost imperceptibly as he struggles to sit up. Derek still catches it, and his eyes flash red.

His fucking life.

Thrill (like white-hot wire) by raisesomehale - (Rating: Mature, Words: 4291, sterek)

Stiles made the decision that Derek was his new best friend (and that he'll one day marry him) the day he shared his dinosaur chicken nuggets with him.

Lap Magnet by Prairie_Grass - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 30765, sterek)

Wherein an ill-advised floral arrangement leads to a whole new definition of obliviousness, accidental mate-bonds, and far more sex and tropes than one fic really needs.

or 

Five times Derek and Stiles didn’t notice how close they were (literally) and then a whole bunch of times when they did...

Like Heaven Catching Lighting byweathervaanes - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 41519, sterek)

Prince Stiles of Cor has always known, somewhere in the back of his mind, that he was never truly going to marry for love. Fighting it has only made it worse. Now, presented with a choice between two children of the Hale family of Ignis, Derek and Cora, he must make the decision to determine who will rule by his side. If only it were that simple.

-0-

“Tell me,” he says, taking a drink. “If your sister does accept me as her husband, would you be pleased for her fortune or yours?”

Derek sets down the pitcher and moves further into the room, removing his vest and setting it over a chair. “I don’t believe that’s a fair question. If she finds happiness in your kingdom, by your side, of course I’ll be pleased for her.”

“And relieved, I imagine.”

Derek turns, arms crossed over his chest. “Would you be?”

Tonight, the foxes hunt the hounds. byTheBeastsWrite (orphan_account) - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 21096, sterek)

Stiles always knew finding a mate would be hard for him. He's not bright and beautiful like Lydia, or stong like Danny or adorable like Scott. 

He was just Stiles, fox kid with ADHD who loved to draw. 

Derek Hale was everything, popular, strong, smart and gorgeous.

They get put together on an English assignment and it doesn't go at all like Stiles expects.

I Will Meet You In The Woods bydylan_blaze_nightstars - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 6983, sterek)

Derek goes running as a wolf in the forest, he just wasn't expecting to meet a curious fox who seems to know who he is.

Gathering Hearts by neil4god - (Rating: Not Rated, Words: 2050, sterek)

Derek brought this on himself, he brought the alpha's here and now they're all trying to worm their way into Stiles' affection and even worse, his pants! Screw diplomatic relations, screw tradition, he should have cancelled the whole thing and kept Stiles to himself. Not that Stiles was his or even wanted to be his, right?

Dear Fellow Traveler

written by: lanalua (sterek-stuffs) with art by @berrysterek

Rating: M (getting together, magic!Stiles, initial Stydia, endgame Sterek, Stiles leaves Beacon Hills, Stiles comes back to Beacon Hills)

Excerpt:

“Hey,” Stiles said when he was close enough for it to not be weird. Then he remembered Derek could have, and probably had, heard him from the house. Derek nodded, “I didn’t figure you for an early riser.” “Ha. I am full of surprises!” Stiles was in a good mood. “I see that. I thought you’d be back in New York by now.” Derek had a way of getting straight to the point. Stiles would have admired it if it wasn’t so annoying, so often. “Well, I decided to stay a bit longer, after our conversation that day, you know?” Was that a weird thing to admit to an… acquaintance? Friend? Trauma buddy? Whatever, it was too late now. He decided to turn things around on Derek. “Also, dude, are you staying here? What about your loft?” He was close enough now that Stiles could see his cheeks were a bit red, although whether from embarrassment or the cold he couldn’t tell.  Derek shook his head. “I have a room at the motel. I’m not staying here.”  Stiles raised his brows. “You’re such a bad liar!” Derek breathed what could be a laugh. “I’m not. It was just for tonight, I wanted to start work early today. Start tearing it down soon. It was easier to just stay here.” “And you’re clearly not a morning person.” Stiles quickly steered the conversation away from depressing topics. He meant to embarrass Derek, not make him think about his morbid past. Derek’s smirk showed a hint of fang. “Wolves are nocturnal.” “That’s not even true, you know? Wolves are totally crepuscular, so really, you should have been fully awake and ready to face the day by dawn, at the latest.”  Derek’s smirk softened into a smile, like he was pleasantly surprised at Stiles’ knowledge of random wolf facts. What did he expect? Stiles had gone into so many research spirals back in high school, looking into the behavior of wolves in the hopes of better understanding his lupine friends - well, and his enemies, if he was being honest. Guess the information had stuck with him even after all these years.

Coming soon to the @twsterekbigbang !!

My #1 post of 2022

Fics that came out this year and you might have missed, but that are absolutely worth checking out!

among your heart-shaped leaves by dappledawndrawn

After rebuilding the Hale house, Derek enlists Stiles' help in planting a garden.

Bite the Moonlight & Bleed Gold by raisesomehale

Seven years after being tricked and imprisoned by the Argents, Derek Hale finds himself off the blistering coasts of Antarctica aboard the Argentum Domina, an illegal prison ship out of which the Argents operate their behemoth, underground poaching empire. Derek, a bitter, pack-less alpha, spends his days working off his servitude by poaching creatures for Gerard to sell on the Black Magic Market, just trying to retain his sanity as he earns back the years of his life one capture at a time. But there doesn't seem to be an end, or future, in sight for him. Until, everything changes when Allison Argent brings him a capture case with a reward price so ludicrous that he has no choice but to accept. The only problem is, the target creature shouldn't even exist. Derek is flung fast into the deep webbings of a bigger mystery than he could have ever imagined. And discovers that, like this enchanting creature, not everything is as it seems. Can Derek unmask the schemes that threaten not only his life, but the state of the very world itself? And if doing so means losing the unexpected love he finds along the way, will he be willing to make that sacrifice?

The Bright Side of Disaster by Gia279

Tucked between fresh harvested vegetables and fruits, homemade skincare products and lovingly knit scarves and sewn shawls, were booths and tables selling potions, amulets, crystals, and herbs, athames and wands, scrying glasses and hand-embroidered altar cloths. Beacon Hills was a hotbed for magical activity, and it drew the supernatural community like moths to a flame. There were rumors that magical tools crafted in town were more powerful, potions more effective, even herbs more potent.

buyer bonus by elisela

When he walks back to the table, Derek’s out of his seat before he can think better of it. He’s going to ask him out. He’s going to go over there, he’s not going to say the man has a mouth he’ll dream about or give any cheesy, half-assed pick-up line, and he’s going to ask him if he would like to get coffee some time. Maybe he’ll skip that and go straight for dinner, or the bookstore. Derek’s heard you can learn a lot about a person by what they read. He’s cool. He can do this. “Hi,” he says, eyes flickering down to the glossy pamphlets of houses for sale that litter the table, and when panic overtakes him, what comes out of his mouth isn’t any of those things. “I’m thinking about buying a new place. Are you an agent?” Ah, crap.

Waning Crescent by Dexterous_Sinistrous

Derek’s scent was a heady warmth that enveloped Stiles’ senses. It was like the first strike of rain in a dried forest. A crisp smokiness to the tickle of petrichor. It lit up an unfamiliar spark in Stiles’ gut. And for the first time in a couple hundred years, his fangs ached.

how long will it take (to finally atone) by lookingforatardis

“I could hurt you,” Stiles says quietly, and doesn’t quite understand why he’s being honest himself. “You wouldn’t.” “I did, though. I did, Derek.” Stiles’ voice shakes and he has to pull his attention away from Derek to calm himself down from the sudden flash of memory. Silence fills the room until it’s uncomfortable, until Stiles has to look, and finds Derek watching him with a closed expression. “That was the nogitsune,” he tells him. “Not you.” Or: Void hurts Derek while possessing Stiles and Stiles has an extremely hard time recovering from what Void did to Derek even after the nogitsune is gone. The thought of touching him sends him into a blind panic, terrifying him as if every touch will hurt him all over again. Stiles can only take so much, after all, and Derek has always been his weak spot.

Don't forget to leave the authors some love!

Summary: FIC LINK HERE

Stiles just looks at him. Studying him. Eyes slowly narrowing like he thinks he’s lying. The hand holding his mother’s conduit drops to slide inside his pocket. And then he just stares down at Derek. Addressing him.

“Why are you here, wolf? This close to The Wall, this close to Samhain? You must have a death wish.”

“Just,” Derek’s eyes slip shut and he exhales heavily through his nostrils, “Just take me to the hunters.”

A beat.

“Even I’m not that big of an asshole.”

Hi! I’d like to rec raisesomehale’s work ‘two frozen hearts set out to thaw’ for your jan ‘22 submissions? they posted another fic ‘safe haven’ around the same time too but Idk if I can rec more than one fic at a time. Anyway, thanks for the blog guys you rock!

Of course you can rec more than one fic, thank you so much!

❤ two frozen hearts set out to thaw | raisesomehale | T | 3k

At this point in Stiles’ life, there are an overabundance of ways that he has imagined he could die.

I.e. Demon possession, asphyxiation, torture, blunt force trauma, poison, getting bit and his body rejecting the bite, drowning, bleeding out, ending up as collateral damage in an all out pack war, getting hit by a car or a bullet, developing the same disease as his mom...

But by some cruel twist of irony, hypothermia had never made the list.

❤ safe haven | raisesomehale | T | 1.4k

Derek stares down at Stiles’ face, the only part of him not swimming in black fabric, and feels stunned as he takes in the features he hasn’t seen in years. The last time he had seen Stiles, the last time Stiles had come here, he’d been wide-eyed and baby-faced, freshly sixteen with a Spark’s Mark flaring to life inside him. He’d been terrified. Now, his face is all sharp angles and definition, matured and molded into a man. And even unconscious as he is, Derek has a hard time imagining anything terrifies Stiles now.

*Submissions for January 2022 Sterek fic recs are open until February 20th! We’ll be sharing on an ongoing basis and will be posting a masterlist on Feb 27th. Submissions info here, submit here*

A Sterek Fic Rec Post

(because why not?)

This is not in any particular order, these are just the fics I have read in the last couple weeks and which I think were an amazing read.

don't know what i'm supposed to do (haunted by the ghost of you)

Stiles sees dead people. Yep. Seriously.

(He’s got this. He’s totally got this. So what if one of them is Derek’s mom?)

Summary in simple words: Stiles magically summons Laura from a parallel universe.

Summary in not so simple words: After a tragic event, Laura’s life is relegated to pack life and staying put. But then a Blue Moon and a kid with a heart full of love who believes he can do magic turns Laura’s world upside down. She's reunited with her brother who was long gone but never forgotten, and the Hale family is whole once again. But like all magic, it has a cost, and Derek’s happiness is not something Laura’s willing to sacrifice.

If The World Was Ending

Derek swallowed the lump in his throat. “If the world was ending,” he started, eyes fluttering open to meet Stiles’ doe brown ones, “I would find you and tell you-”

He broke off, biting down on his tongue hard. He felt Stiles’ fingers trace over cheeks, thumb brushing softly against his bottom lip.

“And if the world wasn’t ending?” Stiles asked, voice barely above a whisper.

life-shattering love

He falls in love with Stiles the summer before college. It's a slow sticky summer, the whole world moving with a kind of mesmerizing laziness. For once, there is nothing trying to kill them. No witches in the woods, no pixies in the preserve, no selkies in the swamp.

(Stiles giggles around a spoonful of ice cream when he says that, sweaty and beautiful in the sunshine.)

state of readiness

After barely defeating the Alpha pack, Derek is determined to give his own pack members the one-on-one training they need to ensure each is ready for the next enemy. He sets out with a goal of eliminating everyone's biggest weakness, but if he thought his pack would let self-improvement pass their Alpha by, he's sadly mistaken. When Stiles is chosen to mentor Derek, things between them change forever.

i'll burn for you

Derek is scared of fire, and Derek is scared of being seen, and Derek is terrified, most of all, of love. But, somehow, when Stiles looks at him, Derek thinks maybe he’s stronger than he thought.

Derek Hale Character Study | 348 words | By jesuisgrace

The Hale Pack

Per Stiles’s instructions, the Hale pack is tasked with building their web of allies at a west coast pack convention. Which is...fun, right? As their first convention, they’re technically making their debut as a pack. It’s only been, what, seven years? This is long overdue.

Aka, The Hale Pack has a reputation. Told from outsiders’ points of view.

SUNDAE MORNINGS

Author: raisesomehale

Summary: "Derek had had his doubts when Cora first suggested their family play host to a foreign exchange student from Poland, but it wasn’t until the kid arrived that Derek really began to resent the entire program.

Sure, Stiles Stilinski cleans up after himself – never not a perfect gentleman around the house – and gets straight A’s while still somehow managing to make friends insanely fast. But he's also cocky and sarcastic; quick-witted in a way that can tangle Derek into a neat, flustered little bow with only a few choice quips.

The worst part is that English isn’t even Stiles’ native tongue, and he still manages to be better with it than Derek. Bested at his own damn language."

Info: 5k | Teen | Pining, Polish Stiles

Notes: This fic has one of the hottest make-out scenes I’ve read in awhile. Also, thanks to Put Down In Words I now have a thing for Stiles peaking Polish to Derek, especially when he’s all wrecked. -C

Sneak Peek:

“And, does living a little include bugging me while I work?” Derek lifts his eyes, brows raised.

“Always,” he smirks, the lilt of his accent rolling the word low.

Derek’s gaze flickers down –  and then quickly refocuses on Stiles’ eyes. “I think something got lost in your translation of what ‘living a little’ means.”

Stiles tilts his head and says, “How about you show me what it means, then?”

Written for the halloween prompt: “that last bag of kit-kats is mine” or person a and person b meet at the grocery store on halloween night to buy more candy and proceed to fight over the last bag (neither of them are actually handing out candy but they don’t need to admit that to a stranger do they).

Treat Cute by Cobrilee - 1.2k, G

Derek loves Halloween because he gets to let his wolf out. This Halloween gives him a different reason to love the holiday. (It gives him Stiles.)

Haunted Howl by tabbytabbytabby - 2.3k, T

After all the things they've seen, Stiles finds the haunted houses he and Derek are visiting on Halloween to be a little boring. He might be wishing for boring, after word gets to them about a real ghost siting a town over. Or maybe it's exactly what Stiles needs to put things into perspective.

I’m Your Boogie Man by Jmeelee - 4k, M

Five times Derek and Stiles ended up accidentally wearing couples costumes on Halloween, and the one Halloween they ended up a couple.

Everybody Make a Scene by skoosiepants - 4.4k, G

Stiles starts out with three jack-o-lanterns in front of their modest little pack house, but when he sees Derek staple-gunning orange lights around the entire front of their porch, he comes home with a six foot dinosaur skeleton with glowing red eyes.

No one actually hangs Halloween lights unless they’re going to war.

Or-

Stiles and Derek have some kind of unspoken Halloween decorating competition that also involves baked goods and flirting.

Hallow’s Warmth by raisesomehale - 6.8k, M

Derek and Cora own the little coffee shop downtown, Stiles is the regular and talkative client that Derek may or may not be infatuated with, and the cold weather is extremely inconvenient considering it dusts Stiles' cheeks with a rosy shade of red and causes his breath to frost over in white puffs whenever he laughs.

Pining and Halloweenie things ensue.

You’re the Only One(sie) for Me by mikkimouse 8.4k, T

Stiles buys Halloween costumes online and badgers Derek into wearing one for a party at the Preserve, because they're friends now and friends do those kinds of things. It's all fun and games until he and Derek turn into their costumes.

Stiles probably should have done a little more research on the seller.

bonfires burning bright (room in my coffin tonight) by hito - 12k, E

Stiles may hate Halloween, but he loves working at the Haunted House -- at least until the new girl steals his cushy job in the office. But she also introduces him to the guy he's had a crush on for years, so he supposes she can't be a total witch. That doesn't mean Derek isn't a vampire.

borders and horizon lines by magneticwave - 14.8k, T

“Let me do this nice thing for you, Derek, no strings attached,” said nobody ever.

Strike Softly (Away From The Body) by  qhuinn (tekla) | 34.5K

Derek is a bodyguard and Stiles his spoiled, resistant client.

just once by  stilinskisparkles | 20.5K

“I’m your bodyguard!”

“Yeah, I know, and I get that you’re worried I am somehow living under the illusion you are Kevin Costner and I’m Whitney Houston, but Derek?” Stiles grabs his tie before Derek can stop him, pulls him close enough to murmur in his ear, “I can’t sing.”

reGuardless by  raisesomehale | 3.5K

The president had been to the point when he explained to Derek the rules of the job.

Stiles was in the room while these rules were recited: Never take your eyes off of him in public. That’s how he liked to dodge his last bodyguards. No more than an arm’s length apart. He’s more slippery than you’d think. Escort him to and from appearances. Intervene in any situation that might tarnish the Stilinski image…

The list went on and on. As did the games of chicken Stiles initiated to test Derek with these rules.

call it a wild card by  stilinski | 18.4K

“I am not playing the part of your fearless boyfriend, and you’re not playing prom queen. I am your bodyguard and this is what I do. You will trust me to get Erica out safely or I will strip you of any illusions you still have that I’m a skinny wretch and put you in the trunk, are we clear on that?”

“That’s unprofessional.”

Silence.

Derek grunts. Stiles nods, satisfied.

A Strong Heart and a Nerve of Steel by  lupinus, uraneia | 21.2K

Stiles and Derek wake up married in Vegas. Well, they would have if it was legal.

In which Stiles is the president’s son, Derek is his bodyguard, and Papa President orders them to pretend to be in love for the sake of gay rights.

Bite Down Hard by  KuriKuri  | 25.7K

In which Secret Service Agent Derek Hale accidentally gets bonded to First Son Stiles Stilinski. Oops.

Never Did Run Smooth by  blacktofade, rarepairenabler | 34.2K

As the only son of King Stilinski, Stiles doesn’t have a lot of freedom, but he doesn’t let that stop him from traveling for days to the biggest festival of the season with a begrudging stranger, Derek.

Fic Rec☺️

Hey guys! I've been having a crappy few days and when that happens I like to disappear into the amazing world of fanfiction. So to anyone who's having a hard time of it or just wants to escape how crappy the world is sometimes or just want to read... Fic Recs😁🙃

The Night of the Dance by christinchen - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 1822, sterek)

Stiles is taking Derek to prom and he's freaking out about it

Dream by dylan_blaze_nightstars - (Rating: G, Words: 645, sterek)

"Stiles leaves his window open no matter the weather or season after Derek leaves.

It’s the only thing left for him to do. Wait for his return."

Howl A Little Louder For Me by raisesomehale - (Rating: Mature, Words: 13543, sterek)

Stiles just looks at him. Studying him. Eyes slowly narrowing like he thinks he’s lying. The hand holding his mother’s conduit drops to slide inside his pocket. And then he just stares down at Derek. Addressing him.

“Why are you here, wolf? This close to The Wall, this close to Samhain? You must have a death wish.”

“Just,” Derek’s eyes slip shut and he exhales heavily through his nostrils, “Just take me to the hunters.”

A beat.

“Even I’m not that big of an asshole.”

Chased by tryslora - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 11213, sterek)

Alpha Seeks Omega

I am looking for an Omega to chase. Primary gender doesn’t matter. Age doesn’t matter. I just need a good, fun, long chase. Details will be kept confidential. This isn’t about sex; it should be platonic. Omegas due for heat will not be entertained.

Stiles needs this job...

Spoiler: it doesn't stay platonic.

Parent-Teacher Conference by misswhimsy - (Rating: G, Words: 1202, sterek)

“So you know how I was talking about sitting in on one of Eli's classes after the parent teacher conference thing?”

“Yes.”

“I may have requested they transfer him to one of the other classes.”

“What? Stiles, he's in second grade, what could have possibly happened?”

Nighttime Runs and Warm Beds by justanotherbusyfangirl - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 1248, sterek)

Derek returns home from a run to find a familiar body in his bed.

Bleeding Out For You (even if it's the last thing i'll ever do) by whenwordsmakesense - (Rating: T, Words: 1203, sterek)

"You're bleeding because of me."

And there it is. Derek's guilt at hurting him plain to see, making Stiles want to scream because Kate is fucking dead but she still won't stop ruining them—ruining Derek.

All the progress Derek makes, all the genuine smiles he lets others see, all of it vanishes after one nightmare with her in it. Stiles knows healing isn't linear, knows it like the back of his hand, knows it personally, but he still hates this.

OR

Derek has a nightmare. This is the aftermath.

Hearts On Fire by frownypup - (Rating: Mature, Words: 6617, sterek)

Fate brings Stiles to ending up as a fireman, and he loves every second of it. Derek hates the job because fire took things from him. If it takes Stiles too, Derek...he just can't.

Not Your Disney Romance by Rawren (Deshonanana) - (Rating: Mature, Words: 42065, sterek)

After a long-forgotten agreement of an arranged marriage between Derek and the daughter of another pack's alpha resurfaces, Stiles takes it upon himself to become the most amazing fake fiancé that a clueless, desperate alpha werewolf could wish for.

How far do I have to go to get to you by toomuchplor - (Rating: Explicit, Words: 5189, sterek)

Stiles never knows if it's worse when Derek Hale steps out of the shadows or when he slinks back into them; either way, Stiles never expected to have this many feelings about his stupid old yellow owl shirt.
