You are a Hale, just like Derek. You are Derek's wife, though Derek is often described as lonely because he doesn't have "love." But that was you – you are a born werewolf and, just like Derek, an evolved werewolf. However, unlike Derek, you were often not in Beacon Hills as you spent much of your time traveling the world, experiencing your own adventures. Derek never mentioned you to the McCall pack – Scott, Stiles, Lydia, Kira, Malia, Liam, and the others.

Stiles would probably have made some sarcastic remark, always ready with a cheeky comment about personal matters. Scott would have likely reacted with surprise but also curiosity, concerned for Derek but wanting to know more. Lydia would have hinted at wanting to know more, given her love for secrets, while Kira would have tried to empathize with the situation. Malia would have observed Derek with a raised brow, always searching for a deeper reason behind people's actions and words. Liam would probably have been a bit confused, especially about the dynamic between Derek and you.

But Derek wasn't in the mood to engage with their curious questions and avoided such conversations. Now, you had been back in Beacon Hills for a week, staying in Derek's loft, making things between you and him even more complicated.
