Alex's P.O.V

June 3rd, 2013

I woke up in bed without Klaus next to me. As I walked downstairs, I saw an elaborate breakfast had been set up in the dining room of the plantation house. There were only two chairs at the table and Klaus was standing behind one of them. "What's all this?" I asked him as I walked up to him.

"What? I can't treat the woman who's carrying my children to a good breakfast?" Klaus asked as he pulled out the chair. I sat down and he pushed in the chair a bit, before going to sit down himself.

"Why are you doing this, Klaus?" I asked him.

"I told you why," Klaus replied. "You're the mother of my children, and you deserve the best New Orleans has to offer." I looked at him suspiciously.

"Ok," I said and decided to change the subject as I began to eat the food in front of me. "So what's the plan for today?"

"To take back my city," Klaus answered and I looked at him surprised.

"So that's what's put you in a good mood," I replied and he smiled. We ate in silence as I thought over yesterday's events.

"You're still worried about Stefan," Klaus said and I looked at him.

"Wouldn't you be worried if Elijah couldn't remember who he was and had a tendency to rip people's heads off?" I questioned.

"I'm sure Damon and Elena have already found a way to bring back his memories," Klaus reassured me and I gave him a look.

"Have you met them?" I asked him. "I love Damon but he'll drop everything for Elena in a heartbeat."

"You could always call them if you're so worried about them," Klaus mentioned. I looked at him when his phone vibrated. "Looks like Marcel has decided to talk to me." Klaus stood up and walked over to me. He kissed my forehead and I gave him a smile.

"Be careful," I said. He gave me a reassuring smile before leaving.


I stepped out of the shower and picked up my phone while drying my hair. "Hello?" I asked.

" How dare you?! " Caroline scolded me.

"How dare I what?" I asked her.

" How dare you come to Mystic Falls and not see me, " Caroline said, angrily, and I let out a laugh.

"I'm sorry Caroline, I had to help my amnesia little brother. Plus I didn't think I was going to leave as soon as I did," I explained to her. "How is he?"

" As ok as he can be right now, " Caroline said.

"So Damon hasn't completely fucked up yet?" I asked, hopefully.

" Nope, but someone kidnapped Kathrine, " Caroline mentioned.

"Why does that matter?" I asked her.

" Oh, yeah, you've been gone, " Caroline muttered. " Elena shoved the cure down Katherine's throat, meaning she's human. Although now, since she has the cure running through her veins, Silas wants her and we don't want Silas to have her. "

"Wait, Kathrine's human, and no one told me?" I asked her.

" Well, you weren't picking up your phone. " Caroline shot back as I got dressed.

"Touché," I quipped. "Anyways Kathrine is kidnapped."

" Yeah, and we're in the process of finding her, " Caroline explained and I sighed.

"Well, when you do, please let me kill her," I mentioned and she laughed.

" Will do. Look, I have to go, " She said and I smiled.

"I'll talk to you later," I said.

" Bye Alex, " Care said and hung up.

I smiled as I put my phone down. There's that feeling again. Content. I liked this feeling. I hope it stays with me for a while. Klaus and I were on the road to forgiveness, now that we had come to a certain agreement. Plus, I know New Orleans is too dangerous for our kids, so we'll have to leave eventually. With that safety net in mind, I smiled. Everything will be fine.


I'm assuming Elijah with Klaus since I haven't seen him all day. I felt another kick and I groaned a bit. That one was strong. The front door opened and I saw Victor and Daniel. I remained laying on the couch in the living room. They came over and sat in the chairs next to me.

"What?" I asked.

"Have you thought about it?" Victor asked me.

"Thought about what?"

"The powers you babies are going to possess," Daniel elaborated. "I mean they are part vampire, werewolf, human -"

"Witch."

"Witch?" Victor asked. "What do you mean witch?"

"Esther," I muttered. "She was a Norse witch, meaning that even though Klaus can't do magic, he still carries the gene."

"So you're telling us your kids are part witch, vampire, and werewolf?" Victor asked and I remained silent as that information sunk in.

"No," I said. "That's ridiculous. Being a vampire and a werewolf both started off as a curse. So it's not surprising they could be mixed. A witch is someone blessed by nature. Whoever heard of a vampire/witch or a werewolf/witch. Magic is a receive gene so there's a one/four off chance that one of them might be magical and since their grandmother, Esther was so powerful that maybe that's what the witches were scared of." Shit. One of my babies was a witch? No wonder the witches were terrified of them. I mean I knew Esther was a witch, I just forgot she was also one of the most powerful witches in history. Welp, I hope Bonnie can help me then.

"Ok," Daniel said. "So your babies have powers and there is no way to narrow it down?" I nodded. "Does Klaus know anything about it?

"Do I know anything about what?" I jumped at the sound of Klaus's voice. His mouth had dried blood on it and there were bloodstains on his shirt.

"I'm assuming you have your empire back," I said and Klaus smirked. He lifted up my legs and placed them on my lap, as he sat down on the couch.

"Yes, in fact, I do have it back," Klaus confirmed. "Now what were you all talking about?"

"The babies," I replied and Klaus looked at me concerned. "Calm down, nothing's wrong with them. Victor and Daniel were just pointing out we have to think about what powers our babies might have, which is when I remembered that your mother was a witch. Meaning our kids have the chance to be a witch as well."

By the look on Klaus's face, I could tell he hadn't thought about that. I looked at Victor and Daniel and they seemed to realize it too. Daniel broke the silence, "So let's list out the possibilities. At this point, we have to assume one baby is a witch. A super-powerful one, because why else would the witches be scared. It's not like born hybrids are anything new, and because your drinking blood right now the other baby is probably gonna be some kind of human-vampire hybrid. Then they are also gonna have the werewolf gene. So the question is what happens if they activate said gene."

"Ok first off, what the fuck? What do you think this is? Twilight. Neither one of the babies is going to be a vampire. The blood is all me. It's my body trying to be functional when I have two more things eating off my energy and nutrients," I snapped.

"Ok, then werewolf witch babies. Maybe that's why the witches are scared, that's a new combination. What about the amount of magic they might have plus the strength of a werewolf?" Victor mentioned. "I mean the witches saw something that scared them right off their rockers." I felt Klaus tense up at Victor's words.

"Victor's right, Klaus," I said. "There's no use denying it. Sabine had some freaky vision about our kids. That's why Agnes tried to kill them. For all, we know the kids might have enough power to level this city."

"And for all we know someone else might come after them, trying to take that power for themselves," Daniel warned, and the three of us turned to him. Klaus and I then shared a look. It wasn't an unreasonable thought. People tried using witches all the time.

"He's right," Victor agreed. "There's almost no reason to speculate besides to prepare ourselves for the possibilities. We don't know who else knows about them, or their actions. The witches in this city already want them dead because they think your kids are going to be the end of them." I sighed and laid back down.

"That accusation is complete bullshit. They're just babies," I argued. "We don't know how they'll turn out."

"Either way you guys need to be ready for when those kinds of people show up, if they ever do," Daniel advised and I gave Klaus another look. He seemed to notice I agreed with Daniel and looked away while sighing.

"Let's keep this between the four of us shall we?" Klaus offered. "The fewer people who know about the potential powers of our children the better." We all nodded and Klaus smiled, having that settled. "Wonderful. Now, Alexandria, go pack your things."

"What?" I asked, confused.

"What do you mean what?" He asked. "I'm finally telling you, you get to leave this house and you're against it?" I sat up and looked at him.

"I'm not against it, I'm just confused."

"I got my empire back, love, you're moving into the compound with Elijah and me," Klaus explained. "Victor and Daniel are welcome to join too unless they would rather stay here." I smiled at him and went upstairs to pack.

~At the Compound~

Klaus and I walked into the compound. Victor and Daniel were still getting their things back at the plantation. I stopped in the middle of the courtyard and Klaus turned to me. "What is it?" He asked.

"I don't trust the vampires," I stated, bluntly, and Klaus walked up to me.

"They won't hurt you, love, I'll make sure of it," He said and held out his hand. "Now come on, let me show you your room." I hesitated but took his hand nonetheless. Klaus led me upstairs to a fairly big room that had its own bathroom and a smaller room connected to it, but that door was locked. "Victor and Daniel's room are across from you." I turned to him. "And my room's just down the hall. I'll have Marcel bring up your things."

Klaus walked out of the room and I walked over to the bed before sitting down. I smiled. I'm free of that reminder. Maybe now I will feel safe. There was a knock on the door and I turned to see Marcel. "Just here to drop off your things," He said.

"Thanks," I replied and laid down.

"So you're the woman he knocked up," Marcel mused and I laughed.

"Are you shocked?" I asked him. "I'm the only person he seems to have any interest in since the 1920s."

"Why didn't you tell me?" Marcel asked. "I could have helped you with the witches."

"I didn't know," I replied honestly. "I didn't know until I was dragged into this mess. Then I was linked to Sophie and I knew if I told anyone, they'd kill my kids."

"I get it," He replied. "You were just protecting your kids." I gave him a smile. "I'll see you at dinner." Marcel left and I sighed. I hope we become friends. He seems like a nice guy.
