Stiles/Peter, Stiles/Derek | 11k | NC-17, underage (Stiles is 14), character death*
Summary: It’s much harder than he expected, though, to stand beside Stiles on the lawn as his house burns down. Hard to keep his hand on that too-thin shoulder, birdlike under Peter’s fingers. It’s strange trying to reconcile the fragility of a human boy with the predator he is underneath, but Stiles has always shown his true colors under adversity.
He doesn’t cry. He just asks, “Was it them?” Because he’s clever enough to understand what having enemies means but innocent enough not to recognize when one offers comfort.
Peter does what’s easy, and lies, “Yes.” Then he does what’s hard, and stays.
*feel free to ask me for character death spoilers if you need to know.

This isn’t a fic for everyone, first: Stiles is underage in this fic. The fic begins with Stiles at 13, nothing sexual occurs until he is 14. Still, he is heavily under Peter’s influence from a young age. Peter here is devious and cruel, completely focused on getting revenge on Kate for the fire. The canon divergence occurs because Stiles knows the Hales ahead of time. Peter doesn’t fall into a coma instead he sees Stiles as a perfect tool to facilitate his revenge.
If I had one complaint it might be that Stiles is a bit too bad-ass for his age and to be completely in character (even with all the tragedy in his life) HOWEVER being able to suspend my disbelief of that actually made the fic better because... idek... it saved it from being too realistic? It let all the events that happened (Peter’s manipulation of Stiles and Stiles manipulation of Peter) become palatable in its insanity. Don’t get me wrong it’s not crack. It’s more the ott immorality of a gangster movie? Best comparison I can think of. Check your morals at the door with this fic.
The sex is brilliantly hot and wrong and hits all the right underage kink buttons, never dipping into my squicks. And the psychology behind Peter’s shaping of Stiles into a weapon is just fabulous, as is the fact that Peter is not infallible. Brilliant read if this is your type of fic.
