He picked her up and settled her down in his bed and then picked up his cell and called someone. As the line connected he said "Johanson, I will not coming in the office today. I am working from home. If you have any questions about the case call me"

After putting the cell down, he looked at her and realized that he was still in his night pajamas. She was out so he went to the bathroom and after taking a quick shower and changing into jeans and his favorite worn down shirt he came out. She was still sleeping so he picked up his files and settled down on the other side of the bed.

He called Elijah. "Hello Elijah, how is everything?"

"Good you tell. Did you find anything?" He asked him.

"Yes I have found about Finn Slater. He lives in French Quarter and check it out he has one sister and a brother too. Their names are Davina Slater and Kaleb Slater" Klaus said in a relatively lower volume

Elijah said "so there is a whole family of Originals and why are you speaking in such a low volume"

Klaus glanced at Hayley and cursed himself when Elijah said with a chuckle "Oh I get it. Afraid of waking someone"

"shut it Elijah" Klaus said in an annoyed tone.

"Okay brother. At least you are having fun" Elijah said unable to keep a hint of jealousy in his tone.

Klaus felt that but he ignored it and said "So these Originals are apparently a big deal over here and get this they don't like werewolves in general. It is not just our pack. They have an issue with Crescent pack over here too"

"Crescent pack! Isn't that the pack you got friendly with some summers ago? What was your friend's name?" Elijah asked

"Jackson" Klaus said with a smile remembering the unforgettable summer he spend with them.

"Anyway so I was saying while I have my eyes on them I wanted to talk to you about this Andrew Kendall versus Davis Mathew case" Klaus said looking down at the file.

Elijah said "Okay I have the file here somewhere. Let me get it out"

After a couple of minutes of silence during which Klaus stared at Hayley sleeping and breathing slowly.

He heard Elijah's voice "what is this?"

"Yes that is what I am wondering" Klaus said with a chuckle.

"Davis is Andrew's brother in law! " Elijah said with indignation

"Yes, why do we always get these cases?" Klaus said with a chuckled mingled with some annoyance.

He couldn't see Elijah but Elijah shook his head in disappointment. He knew his father did that on purpose. He liked to give Klaus cases that were complicated in nature and especially that involved the complexities of family affairs.

"I will make a deposition and send it to you and you arrange a meeting with them and get back to me about that" Klaus said flipping through the pages.

"Okay brother. What else?" Elijah asked him

Klaus said "nothing. Now I have to go. Will message you after mailing the deposition in" he was about to put the cell down when Elijah asked him "what! You are not going to tell me who is she?"

Klaus looked at Hayley and saw that she was up. He said "I will but not right now"

He stared at her as he saw her getting up from the bed and putting on her shoes.

"I will talk later Elijah" he said to him and without waiting for his response he put the cell down.

"Where are you going?" He asked her as he saw her moving towards the door of his bedroom.

She squared her shoulders, turned towards him and said "leaving"

"Hmm" he just sat there and didn't do anything and when she swayed he got up with a smile and said "you cannot even walk to the door without swaying. Why don't you rest until you get better and then you can leave?"

"I will be fine. I am a h.." Hayley stopped and realized what she was about to say and when Klaus asked her "you are a what?"

She quickly said "I am a healthy young girl. I can manage this pregnancy" she said and then she groaned as a new wave of nausea hit her.

She came out of the bathroom and said to him as he handed her the towel "I think I am allergic to you. You know what this can be a problem for both of us"

Klaus tucked his smile away and said "how is that, love?"

"We are having this child together and me and the baby are allergic to you so how are we going to… " Hayley started sarcastically and then stopped and went in the bathroom again and banged the door on him this time as he tried to follow her.

She didn't emerge from the bathroom for five minutes. At last when she opened the bathroom door Klaus said to her "Come. I am taking you to the hospital"

Hayley snatched her hand away from him and walked to the bed and said "NO"

He went to her in anger and shook her and said with frustration "why are you so adamant?" and then the words were out before he could stop them "what? You are afraid that the doctors will find out it is not mine"

Before she knew it Hayley's hand swung in the air at those words and made contact with his cheek with a smack and then she slumbered on his bed as Klaus stared at her with a mixture of anger and regret at saying those words and her slapping him. But that slap proved that if there were any doubts in his mind about this baby being his they were cleared by the hurt look on her face.

She faced towards the wall and closed her eyes.

Klaus got up and as he was running his fingers from his hair his cell rang. He picked up the cell with eyes still on her and said "Hello Mr Miller"

Hayley felt too weak to listen to the conversation so she blocked her mind and tried to sleep.

Klaus said "Yes I will be there in 20 minutes"

He looked at her and said trying to keep his voice calm "I have to go somewhere so please stay. Stay until I come back or until you feel better which I doubt that it will happen any time soon so please stay"

She didn't say anything Klaus left.

Klaus walked in the coffee shop and found him sitting at the corner table. He went to him and put the file down on the table. He then ordered a coffee for himself and sat down opposite him.

"So Mr. Miller, what is your client proposing?" Klaus asked him

"They don't want a deal Mr. Mikaelsons. They want every last penny from 'Barkleys and Co'" Mr. Miller said

Klaus groaned inwards and said "Did you tell them that they are being greedy and if they continue on this path, they might lose the amount they can get out of this settlement"

"I talked to them but they are adamant and as their lawyer I have to listen to them. So this is the new proposal they want me to show you" he passed Klaus a file.

Klaus opened it and after glancing through it he laughed and said "are you kidding me? This is the net worth of the company"

"Yes and that is what my client wants from them" Mr. Miller said.

"I will never let that happen Mr. Miller. 'Barkleys and Co' will take a stand against this. Tell your client to be ready to face us in court" Klaus said harshly and then he got up and left.

Hayley got up at last from the bed and stayed stationary thanking her luck when no nausea hit her. She went to the bath, freshen herself up and after collecting her things she wrote a note for him after she found a pen and paper in one of the drawers.

"Klaus I am leaving. Just to tell you that I WAITED till I felt better. You said yourself I should stay till I feel better or you until you come back and guess what! I realize that you don't want this child but I do so you don't have to be involved in his or her life. I will send you updates about me and the baby whenever I can and more importantly FEEL LIKE IT. Don't try to find me please. It is in both of our interests

I have been pretty annoying last night I realize that and for that I apologize but I am NOT sorry for the slap I gave you because you deserved it. If you think that I would stoop so low to make up a lie like that then I feel sorry for you for meeting girls with that kind of mentality.

One more thing. Thanks you for giving me this baby. It is all I wanted right now in my life"

Hayley

Hayley picked up her stuff and left his house not realizing that she was leaving her heart behind too.

She was starting to feel bad again but she held her breath and kept going. She entered the small apartment that she had been living for the past month and then after taking a quick shower, changing her clothes she left again.

She walked into a small shop and went to the girl standing behind the counter. She looked into her eyes and asked "What do you know about the spell that can stop procreation?"

The girl blinked her eyes and then said as if in a trance "why do you ask that? It is prohibited. You cannot play with nature"

Hayley smiled and said "Lets talk hypothetically. If it happens then how can it be broken" she asked again

"There is no way to break a spell like that. You have to talk to the elders of our coven" she replied still in trance.

Hayley groaned as she felt another wave of nausea hitting her. She asked in frustration "give me a cure to handle morning sickness"

The girl smiled and said "Oh you are having a baby. That is great. Babies ar…."

Hayley snapped at her "give me the damn thing and quit jabbering.

The girl went in the back door and came back with a small bottle and said "here it is. Take it every morning. The first thing you get up and you will feel better the whole day"

Hayley took the bottle and said "now forget about everything I asked and about me and continue with you day business"

She whooshed out of there even before the girl could blink.

She entered Rouseaus's and went to the bar and asked the bartender Camille "do you know where I can find Sophie Deveraux? Someone told me that she comes here regularly"

"Yes she does. She is in the back room if you want to talk to her" Cami said pouring the beer in the glass.

"No thanks" Hayley said fighting the wave of nausea hitting her at the smell of the beer and walked to the back room where Cami had pointed.

She stood here looking at a young girl chopping some vegetables. She said "so let me get this straight. You are the famous Sophie whose gumbo is very popular"

Sophie looked up from chopping vegetables and said "And you are the hybrid carrying the miracle baby"

Before she could say anything Hayley had grabbed her by her neck and asked "how do you know?"

Sophie waved her hand in the air telling to take her hand off of her neck and said through chocking throat "witch here and I have a gift"

Hayley stepped back and stared at her. Sophie massaged her throat and said "you should not be here. If marcel finds out about you he will …"

"How do you know about me?" she said and then went to the sink and starting throwing up.

When she was done she looked up and took the towel from Sophie's out stretched hand and looked at her with exhausted eyes.

"Morning sickness?" Sophie asked her in a sympathetic tone. She then said "As I said earlier I have a gift. I can sense a pregnancy and yours is special. Your child is going to be really special and you need to protect it from everything. I think you should leave New Orleans"

"I will not leave New Orleans. My pack is here and I need to help them" Hayley said wiping her mouth on the towel.

Sophie suddenly looked around in alarm and then she went flying across the room as a man hit her hard.

He grabbed Hayley and hissed "not a good move werewolf. Coming to quarter"

Klaus entered the house and at once knew something was different. He darted upstairs and when he saw his bed empty he groaned and then his gaze fell on the note at the bedside table. He read it and then crumbled it in anger and left the house again.

He went to Rouseaus's to drink to get his mind off of her. He smiled at the bartender and then he asked just in case "have you seen a young brunette today? She has wavy hair…"

Cami pointed towards the back door while serving the drink to her customers.

Klaus smiled at his luck and got up and headed to the back room.
