THERE'S EVIL IN THE AIR AND THERE'S THUNDER IN THE SKY

written for the @sterekdrabbles 23/05/25 challenge. the prompt words were SAFE, AFTERMATH, and HUSH.

.

In the hush of the aftermath, his harsh breaths were somehow more frightening than when the Spearfinger tried eating his liver. 

The Preserve's air was suddenly so dense, like earth in a grave. 

Panic. 

He barely registered the creature's victim, next to him yet miles away. Didn't catch the snapped branches as boots pounded the underscrub. 

Derek crashed through the trees like a bat out of Hell. 

Big hands then held him as pain sluiced from his body like magic—because it was magic.

“I've got you.”

That, he heard. 

The Spearfinger was dead, but only now did Stiles feel safe.
