You were sitting around the table with Cami, your friend, and the Mikaelson's. The air was thick and tense – more than usual, which was saying something. You were all trying to figure out how to get rid of the current villain in town, which was Aurora. She was Niklaus's ex-girlfriend, crazy ex-girlfriend. She was the epitome of insanity.
"We can't just keep her hidden behind a wall of cement, Klaus." Cami was upset to say the least. Aurora had turned her into a new vampire and she couldn't believe that Klaus didn't want to kill her. You all secretly knew why – it was because he still had something for Aurora.
"I won't grant her an easy and quick death, Camille. I want her to suffer for everything she has taken from this family." He tried reasoning with her, his jaw tensing. You could see right through his lies.
"I don't get what the big deal is. Just rip her heart out and get it over and done with." You noticed Elijah's lips curving up into a small smile from the corner of your eyes, he was definitely your favorite Mikaelson. He was always straight to the point and easy to reason with.
Klaus glared at you, his grip around his glass tightening, his knuckles turning white. "Why are you even here Y/N? Don't you have your own sociopath to worry about?" He was referring to your boyfriend, Malachai.
Kai was crazy too, but lately he's been nothing but good. He's been trying to be the best possible version of himself for you. You told him during your first few months of dating that he wasn't allowed to be as hasty anymore, that he had to choose between you and his coerce lifestyle. In the end, he picked you, of course. In return, Bonnie let him quietly leave Mystic Falls with you instead of locking him up in another dreadful prison world. So, you decided to come to New Orleans with the only close friends you had – the Mikaelson brothers.
"I'm here because you'd be dead without me." You took a napkin in the palm of your hands, scrunching it up under your touch. As you opened your hand again, the napkin was reduced to ashes. You were a witch, a very powerful one at that. You've saved Klaus and Elijah's lives more than you could count.
Klaus took a deep breath, he wasn't in the mood to play.
You zoned them out for the next few minutes as you took out your phone and checked for notifications. Nothing. You called and texted Kai multiple times, it wasn't like him not to answer. When you rolled out of his bed this morning, you had specially told him to come join you for breakfast with your friends, you were certain of it. He wasn't one to pass up a diabolical plan that involved getting rid of someone for good, especially since it was the only bit of connection that he had left with his dark side.
"I'm going to go check on her." Cami stated, abruptly getting up from her chair. She went and verified to make sure Aurora was still stuck in her current state every few hours or so. She was paranoid because of what had happened to her, could you really blame her?
Klaus shook his head at her. "You don't have to, love. I made sure she was securely locked away myself." He smirked.
Cami ignored him and followed her gut instinct instead. She was the most hard headed person you had ever met, almost as hard headed as Klaus. Within a few minutes, she was back, her pupils were dilated, her hands shaking as she struggled to breathe.
"What's wrong?" You asked worriedly, getting up from your seat. The rest of the Mikaelson's followed as well, checking her body to make sure everything was okay.
"She's gone." Cami breathed out, exasperatedly. "Aurora's gone." She repeated.
The next few hours were filled with terror and spells. You and Freya were desperately trying to locate her using both of your magic, but it was of no use. It was like she was cloaked by something.
"Why is my sister and my own best friend freaking useless!" Klaus shouted, flipping over a table. You ignored his temper tantrum and continued your incantation with Freya. You knew he was having it rough so you weren't going to add onto his problems.
"Relax, brother. They're trying their best." Elijah put a tentative hand on Niklaus' shoulder, trying to calm him down.
Kai still hasn't answered you, and he was one of the most powerful witches you had ever met. You needed his help more than ever now so you told the Mikaelson's that you were going to go back to his apartment to get his help.
As you walked through the front door of his loft, a feeling inside your gut told you that this wasn't right. Something was wrong.
Ignoring it, you walked up the stairs to Kai's bedroom. His door was half-open, you could hear someone giggling from inside – it was a girl's voice. You pushed the door open, your eyes watering up at the sight before you. Kai was in bed with a woman, and not just anyone. Aurora.
Aurora's head shot up as she saw you, her face mischievously staring at you. "Oops. This is my queue to go." She muttered before using her vampire speed to make her exit out of the house.
It clicked in your head that your boyfriend was the one that let the crazy bitch out. In fact, he used his magic to cloak her from the rest of you.
Kai's eyes finally met yours, they were a mix of apologetic and regret. "Y/N." He whispered, getting off the bed. He was in his boxers, his hair still disheveled from his prior activities with the evil monster. He stepped closing to you, making you take a step back.
"I ha-have to tell Klaus. I have to tell him she was here." Your fidgeting hands slid your phone out of your pocket but dropped it to the floor, the screen shattered due to the impact. "Damn it!" You shouted, dropping to your knees and picking it up.
Kai knelt in front of you, his hands grasping yours. You flinched at his touch and immediately retracted your hands. "Don't touch me!" You yelled, getting up and making your way down the stairs. You finally let the tears fall, your vision getting blurred.
He ran after you at a faster speed and closed the front door just as you were about to open it. "We need to talk. Please." He pleaded, turning you around.
You didn't have anything to say to him – you never in a million years thought he would cheat on you. Everything was going so well between you two. You had started a new life together away from all the crap that was in Mystic Falls, you thought you were passed his childish behaviour.
"Why? I just need to know why." You whispered, your eyes gazing up at his.
Kai parted his lips to speak but he was quiet, he didn't know how to explain himself. "I don't know." He ran a hand through his hair nervously, his breathing was ragged. "I've been trying so hard to be good for you – for us. I haven't done something crazy and stupid in so long, I wanted to see if I missed it." His gripped your arms, his figure towering over yours. "You understand that right? You forgive me, right?" He needed reassurance.
You shook your head, the tears streaming down your face as you pushed his hands away. You didn't want to be touched by him, not when the scent of Aurora still lingered in every square inch of this apartment. "So, instead of doing something insane like buying a motorcycle you cheated on your girlfriend?" The words escaped your lips like venom.
Kai's expression fell, he knew instantly how ridiculous he sounded. "I swear to you Y/N. This was a one-time thing, I'm never going to go near her or any other girl ever again." He was trying to win you back but failing miserably.
"Did you ever even love me at all? Or do you know not know what that emotion is either?" You shot back.
Kai frowned in return. "I do love you! How can you even question me?" His tone was laced with shock.
You scoffed sarcastically, your hands balling into fists. "You literally just screwed someone else and you're getting mad at me for doubting you?" You backed away towards the door once again, this time you weren't going to stop him.
Kai quickly grabbed you from behind, his arms wrapping themselves around you. "Don't leave me, please. I need you. I've never needed anyone before I met you." His voice was quivering. Was he crying?
Turning around his arms, you mustered up the last bit of strength you had left and slapped him hard across the cheek. "You're dead to me." You muttered before opening the front door.
He tried stopping you once again but you mumbled a small incantation, leaving him unable to move. You ignored his screams and cries and walked towards your car and drove towards the Mikaelson's home. Finding Aurora now was your soul purpose, you were going to rip the bitch's head off.
