    Summary

    Beyond the Boundary lies the Great Forest, where the gods of Beacon Hills reside. Derek—the dark mark on the Hale house—is the small time deity Stiles’ mother has chosen as her patron.

    But on the dreadful day of her death, the Nemeton is severed—a burgeoning god meant to join the Hale Pantheon. Someone local is to blame and Peter retaliates by descending on the village with a terrible decree: the town must sacrifice one of its own for the next eight years.

    It's a mysterious affair. Someone is simply chosen in spring and disappears at Year’s End, never to be heard from again.

    On the eighth year of this rite, Stiles and Lydia turn eighteen, which automatically makes them candidates for the sacrificial pool. The name that survives Peter’s holy fire will change the course of both their lives.

    I have watched you grow. I have seen you stumble and rise. I have been charmed by your humor, your inquisitive nature, the radiance of your soul. You are not just a shade to me. You are joy. Stubbornness and defiance and unwavering love spun you into being. And I see all of these things brimming inside you. Do not doubt that I love you.

    Summary

    “Gerard wanted me to think you were cruel—crueler than him, actually.”

    Derek stood to his full height, taking a step closer to Stiles as he placed his thumb and forefinger against Stiles’ chin. He was gentle in his prompting—the gentlest he had been since the last time he had held Cora as a baby. “I would never make you hunt. I would never make you kill.”

    Stiles blinked, his mouth partially parting. But he didn’t know what to say.

    “I never wish that feeling on anyone,” Derek finally stated, dropping his hand from Stiles.

    Summary

    Stiles wakes up face down in a pile of dirt and leaves. He would understand this situation better if it was grass. Being knocked out on the lacrosse field isn’t exactly a common occurrence, but it isn’t unprecedented either. Dirt and leaves are harder to explain. Did he fall down while out in the Preserve? Where is Scott? He can probably answer Stiles’ questions. There’s no way he’s out in the Preserve without Scott.

    Marschester Green, Somewhere-In-England really isn’t where Stiles expected to end up on a perfectly ordinary Tuesday in June. He definitely isn’t expecting to wake up in the woods 200 years in the past with an alive Hale family who are—get this—werewolves.

    Summary

    Mand'alor Din is having trouble with his new role, despite having had it for about a year. He understood his position a lot more during wartime; now in peace, he's struggling to keep himself from going insane with monotony.

    When Luke Skywalker turns in a favor and sets up his new Jedi school on Mandalore, life for Din becomes a lot more interesting and complicated. Especially when not all of his subjects agree that Luke should be there in the first place.

    Summary

    Stiles is just trying to prevent the next supernatural problem from killing his friends. Derek is just trying to keep his pack alive (and ignore the desperation that crawls under his skin whenever Stiles is near).

    When Stiles goes into the preserve to investigate a string of murders, he and Derek are kidnapped by an unknown group and locked in a basement with no escape. Each night brings new suffering, and each day they have only each other.

    The two will have to learn how to lean on one another to keep their sanity intact, and they’ll have to work together to escape.

    Too bad they annoy the shit out of each other.
