Summary
Derek Hale has always known two things about himself: He's not good at making people like him, and he's going to be his sister's second for the Sacramento pack. But when a random assignment leads him to be the new alpha of Beacon Hills, dealing with far too big shoes to fill and a new pack orphan that everyone listens to far more than they do him, he thinks it's his big chance to finally prove his worth to his mother. Besides, it's not forever, is it?
Stiles Stilinski has always known two things about himself, too: Being the son of the alpha is a Big Job, and it's his to do, and one day, his mate will be the next alpha of his mother's pack. But when his parents are murdered, and some growly man with expressive eyebrows unwillingly takes her place, he's got two choices: keep glaring at Derek or teach him to man up. At least until he's found a replacement. How long could that take?
This is a story about building a pack, finding a home and cuddling with a dog. It's mostly about the dog.

Summary
Stiles currently has no kitchen, while Derek does. Stiles can't prepare himself proper, nutritious meals, but Derek can.
Derek thinks of Stiles and feels the need to keep him healthy. After all, he is a responsible landlord—and an alpha. It's in an alpha's nature to provide.
A plan quickly forms in Derek's head. Now, all he needs is a pumpkin. And Tupperware.---
Derek Hale dislikes people, but his new neighbor Stiles is the exception to this rule. Instead of flirting with Stiles and asking him out like a typical guy would, Derek devises his own unique method of courting. It involves pumpkins and an apron, and nothing can go wrong. Or can it?

Summary
Stiles loves his life. He does. He loves having Derek as a mate and loves his pack. But he's been a failure at most things, including being a WereCompeer, and now he's terrified he's failing as a mate. He's restless and can’t seem to find his place in the pack. He’s the Alpha’s mate and should be able to run the household and take over for Boyd as Omega mates do. So, why does he feel inadequate? Something is missing. He just doesn't know what it is.

Summary
“My designation is 19621, sir.”
Stiles stares at him.“That's quite the mouthful. Any chance you have a, like, normal name?”
“Derek,” the cleaner says eventually. He looks at the red button on the wall and then glances away.
Stiles follows his gaze and blanches. “Dude, I’m not gonna shock you for telling me your name.”
_____
The new werewolf cleaner for Stiles' PhD group is grumpy and aloof and maybe a genius. As Stiles gets to know him, he can't help but wonder if there's any way to get that collar off him.- Language:
