Puppeteer: A Theo Raeken Imagine

So this is a little imagine based off the song Puppeteer by MAX, which I thought was such a Theo song, if that makes sense. Anyway, hope this is okay, enjoy x 

Want to hear the song? Find a link to it just below:

Puppeteer

You're dripping fire tonight. You're like a miracle, you got me feeling so, Ah ah ah hey hey hey hey

The moment Y/N saw Theo Raeken in Scott McCall’s kitchen, all the feelings she had had for him came rushing back. She’d watched him die, watched him get dragged down into the ground by what could only be his sister. How in the hell was he here?

It was a damn miracle. Not that she’d admit that to anyone. No-one knew about her feelings for him, how could she tell her friends after what he had done to them? 

She found herself staring at him in shock, mouth slightly open, not quite believing that he was there. She didn’t miss the look he gave her, his eyes drawing her in as they did that first day she met him under the bridge, completely unaware of the secrets he was hiding. 

And yet, she still wanted him to be hers. 

Ah ah ah, hey hey hey hey Look like the rest of my life. You're like a centerfold

When she had seen him, Y/N finally felt like the world made sense. She was instantly attracted to him, as would any girl be, and it didn’t help that he would always act the part of the complete gentleman when he was around her. 

If she could’ve married him there and then, she would’ve. 

Then, of course, his true colors were revealed, painting him as the villainous monster that the rest of the pack made her believe he was. He had killed Scott, hurt Stiles’ dad, put Lydia into a state of comatose, caused the end of Malia’s relationship, turned Liam into something he was not, and sent Kira away to skinwalkers. 

And yet, she still wanted him to be hers.

I wanna make you go Hey hey hey hey I wanna make you go Ah ah ah, Ow!

Of course, Theo was well aware of Y/N’s feelings for him, beginning to use them to his advantage when he had first arrived in Beacon Hills. What was one more casualty? 

But soon, she became so much more. Soon, she began appearing in his dreams, the thought of her being with someone else becoming a nightmare, the idea of wanting to make her happy becoming his sole purpose. She was in Scott’s pack, he couldn’t have feelings for her. He stuck to his plan, and when his true self came to light, he knew that she would hate him. 

And yet, he still wanted her to be his.  Girl you're all the rage, so can we turn the page And tell me little somethin', little more than just your name

“You asshole”, she appeared at his door a few nights after he had killed Scott. Theo was quick to notice the gun in her hand, finding her confidence endearing rather than frightening. 

“That’s a bit harsh, Princess.”

“A bit? Wow, you realise I could shoot you right now?”

“And I’d heal.”

“Not if I shot you right between the eyes. I do that, and you disappear for good.”

The look on her face was one that made Theo want to pin her to the wall and kiss her only until oxygen became a desperate need. She was a force to be reckoned with, one that would definitely put in him in his place, control over him being hers to own. 

And yet, he still wanted her to be his.

I don't bite, but I heard you might So let me feed your appetite.

Theo knew that she wanted him just as much as he wanted her. He’d almost offered her a place in his pack, but thought better of it knowing that she’d probably do good on her promise of shooting him. 

He smirked, thinking of the dominance that she would no doubt learn to assert. She was wasted with McCall, a girl of her talents should be able to embrace them rather than suppress them. 

He’d never hurt her, he decided. He’d do whatever she wanted if she asked, he would be completely at her beck and call. He knew that, if given the opportunity, she could become even more powerful than him. A human, and more Alpha than he could ever be.

And yet, he still wanted her to be his.

Where do we go from here? Whisper what you want in my ear, My little puppeteer.

Y/N had volunteered alongside Liam and Hayden to watch over Theo, in order to make sure that he didn’t try to kill them all...again. When Liam arrived with chains, Theo gave her a suggestive smirk, one that made her want to punch him the face and then kiss him until she couldn’t breathe. 

He then proceeded to look at them in irritation, professing that the whole thing was stupid and pointless. 

“Shut up, or we’ll put you back in the ground.”

Liam fastened the chains around the chimera’s wrists, Y/N finding the whole thing to be quite humorous. She stifled a laugh, however, a blush soon rose to her cheeks as Theo walked past her, whispering in her ear. 

“Name a time and a place, Princess. We’ll use these for practice.”

The chains were yanked by Liam, him having obviously heard the crude comment judging by the look of disgust on his face. Theo smirked once again, and Y/N followed behind him, trying to ignore the sound of her own heartbeat racing.

She still wanted him to be hers. Maybe, finally, she’d give in. 

Maybe, she’d take him up on his offer.

#okay so this is about. where the lines blur. the venn diagram of who they both are#a true alpha is a miracle and the first chimera is a monster#both are made by sheer force of will. neither is rly supposed to exist. how were they supposed to exist together. how could they exist apar#so theo is a killer and scott is killed. but who desires what and who is satisfied and who is rotting#scott tells liam that he can't let him kill him and then tells theo he has to kill him himself. theo kills scott and looks miserable#theo killing scott frees scott and traps theo. the only alpha who can exist outside of being an alpha is a dead alpha#the only chimera that escapes the doctors is a dead chimera. or else a chimera with dead doctors (but we haven't gotten to that part yet)#their roles dictate how the part is played. they both have to conform to their roles. they do not exist outside of them#so obviously theo is not allowed to win and scott is not allowed to die#what is a shadow but the place where ground meets body. so theo would always get him on the ground#how does a shadow exist without the sun and body to cast it. so scott would always get back up#is this making sense to anyone but me#stiles can leave town and lydia can go to college and malia can go to paris if she really wants to and so can isaac#and jackson and ethan can go to london and etc etc etc#but once in the town neither scott nor theo can really get away from it. scott because he's scott and theo because scott is scott.#the story revolves around scott and theo revolves around scott and not even death allows them to escape the narrative#this is the crux and core of them both (bericas)
