KLAUS, JACKSON HAYLEY AND I WERE TOGETHER DISCUSSING PACK BUSINESS, UPSTAIRS IN THE LOUNGE. The tensions in the room was thick, to say the least. Klaus and Jackson didn't like each other and we could definitely see it. All this toxic masculinity was freaking annoying and I was guessing Hayley and I would have to be the peacemakers.
On top of that, Klaus was very irritable since Kol died, which was understandable. There was also the threat of our daughter hanging around because of his lunatic aunt. And let's not forget his father very much alive running around trying to end his life, like he has been trying for the past thousand years. This guy was freaking determined.
So Klaus was even more paranoid than before if it could be possible.
"It's time to use our werewolf army. Finn and the woman who calls herself my sister are in this city. The wolves can help us pinpoint their location." orders, Klaus.
"No, we need all hands on deck here with the twins" answers Jackson much to Klaus's annoyance which eyes widen in irritation "Nik, you can compel humans to track your enemies."
My eyes widen and send a look to Hayley, it was not the time to irritate Klaus on the contrary. Unless Jackson wanted to get brutally murdered. And did he seriously called Klaus, Nick? I and his family were the only ones allowed to call him that.
"Do my ears deceive me or did you just give me an order in my own home?" questions Klaus furiously.
"This ain't about your ego, Klaus! It's about what's best for that little girl."
"Guys chill!" I say but I'm ignored.
Klaus exclaims frantically "How dare you question my intentions for my daughters!"
"I'm so done with this toxic masculinity" I mumbled annoyed because it looked like they won't listen to me.
But in a way Klaus was right, we were the parents and it looked like he was judging Klaus's parenting. But Klaus did his best especially considering how terrified we both were that Kolina would be taken from us. There was also the fact that we didn't have good parents figures so we kinda improvised, but I liked to believe we did well. At least we were better than our parents that's for sure.
I send a look to Hayley begging her to intervene because this wouldn't end up good for Jackson if they both continued to argue.
Hayley reluctantly tells "Jack, Klaus is right. Finn's body disappeared from the morgue, which means that he's either powerful enough to heal from that explosion, or Freya's powerful enough to save him. Either way, we're not finding them unless we send our best people out there."
Jackson sighs in frustration, while Klaus smiles.
Klaus says patronizingly "I'm sure you and all your merry men will find them posthaste."
Jackson stands to look Klaus in the eye "Just to be clear, I'm giving this order because Hayley is asking." Klaus opens his mouth to speak, but Jackson cuts him off before he can say anything "Don't think for one second that I take orders from you."
Both men leave the room irritated.
"Well, I guess our men are never getting along" I complained when they left. They were not going to be best friends like, I and Hayley were that's for sure. No doubles dates, how disappointing.
"Yeah," said Hayley disappointed "I just don't want this to end with Klaus killing Jackson"
Yeah, that would be complicated to prevent if Jackson kept annoying Klaus, he wasn't known for his patience.
"Ohhh maybe we could do like a double date. They could end up best friends. Besides they are both doggies they should get along right?" I asked Hayley.
"Please no" groaned Hayley "it would be a disaster. Besides, it's not because they both werewolves that they are friends. Werewolves, especially men fight for dominance"
"Like I said toxic masculinity"
Jackson walks into Hayley's bedroom, where I had just put the twins down to sleep, with Hayley's help. Hayley went downstairs, to do whatever a werewolf queen did while I was reading tweets.
Honestly, I was so tired after taking literally an hour of the twins crying to get them to sleep. So I just wanted to chill for a while. I didn't want to fight or do whatever the others were doing. Motherhood was pretty tiring but I still wanted to enjoy every minute in case Dahlia did manage to take Kolina from me.
Jackson knocks gently on the door frame. He's holding a plate in his hand.
"Shh." I said a finger on my mouth "I just got them to calm down. These babies are monsters"
Jackson holds out the plate to me "Thought you might be hungry."
I smile and tease him "You know I eat blood now right ?"
Jackson's eyes widen, he puts his hand behind his back awkwardly "Oh... I can bring you blood if you want"
"Just kidding." I said, and he smiles "Grilled cheese, huh? Hell of a chef!"
Jackson laughs "I don't like to brag."
I take the plate and devour the grilled cheese. I was so damn hungry and it was a while since I ate grilled cheese. "My sister Josette used to make those all the time," I said between bites. It was because my parent often forgot to feed Kai and me, and Josette was so motherly that she would take care of me despite dad reprimanding her.
I had burnt down the house once because of their neglect. I think I was ten, and I was so hungry but the family was on a weekend trip and Kai was at friends doing a group work for school. My mother hadn't prepared anything to eat, it was like she wanted us to starve to death and be rid of ourselves.
Anyways I tried to make something to eat myself but I only ended up burning the house and almost killed myself. Kai found me in front of the burning house, coughing and with some burns on my arm. Thankfully they healed pretty well, and were barely noticeable today. We had to move to Portland after that, and Dad used his belt to punish me because his precious grimoires ended up being burned as well. He cared more about the coven or his freaking grimoires than his children. It always came first. What a dick!
"Why don't you reach out to her, it looks like you were close with your sister?" asked curiously Jackson. For him, it looked like she was missing her sister. But he didn't know heat really happened between them "I'm sure she will be happy to hear about the twins"
"I'm not sure she wants to see me," I said sadly "I kinda cut her spleen" I added nonchalantly.
Jackson's eyes widen shocked and disgusted by the news. "Uhhh okay.. why the hell would you do that? She's your sister, I would never hurt a member of my pack " Elizabeth could hear the judgment in his voice, but she was used to it.
"Even if they are major dicks?" she asked "Look wolfie, there is a ceremony involving killing your own twin in my coven so killing your siblings was pretty normalized in a way...Besides I was jealous..." I admitted even if I hated it. I was supposed to be confident and being jealous didn't scream confidence "You know we look really alike, people would think we were twins, they were always comparing us and stuff. But we're different, she's nice when I'm mean. She wants to be a doctor to save people while I want to be a psychiatrist because I love hearing about people being more messed up than me. She was everybody's favorite and I hate it, the perfect little Glinda while my parents called me a freaking abomination" I rambled getting bitter at the end.
Jackson opened his mouth to talk but I stopped him "Look I don't expect you to understand but not everything is black and white, it's mostly black people are bad just some hide it better than others. Look at Hayley she's my best friend but she's a shitty person sometimes. Like who sells her supposed fellow werewolves' friends to get slaughtered just get her parent's name? She didn't even do the job herself. That's nasty and Hayls-"
"She did what?" cut me off Jackson and my eyes widen realizing I maybe shouldn't have said that. But who could blame me it was the truth. And I tend to ramble a lot sometimes.
"Ohh maybe you should talk to her it's not really my place to talk about it"
There was an awkward silence. Jackson nodded and changed the subject "You know, I can help you with the twins right? I know you don't like me but if you want to take a break sometime. I'm good with kids."
"I guess it's nice of you, but I don't mind taking care of them. Sure I'm fucking tired...but I don't want to miss anything. Especially since I have a crazy lady who wants to kidnap my daughter because mommy Mikelson made a deal with her"
"She won't take her I promise, the pack will protect her"
"Thanks, dude" I wasn't sure he or his pack could be really helpful against a superpowerful witch, but it's better than nothing I guess "I don't think I will survive it if she takes my baby. I love them so much"
Our discussion was interrupted by Elijah at the door, with his usual class. Despite not liking Jackson because the guy literally married the woman he loved he was still polite.
"There is a situation and Klaus is not responding to any of my calls," said Elijah showing me his phone.
I sighed annoyed since I wanted this day to be chill, but it never was. There was always something getting in the way. Always some people to kill and some people trying to kill us. I loved killing people, but not like every day it was getting repetitive. Besides, I had two kids to take care of and that took a lot of energy. This was so freaking annoying.
Maybe we should go on a family vacation when all the Dahlia was over. Just me, the twins, and Klaus. We could go somewhere hot and tropical, and the twins could play in the pool. I heard babies liked being in the water because it reminded them of being inside their mother.
Yes maybe we could do that, I thought smiling. A little vacation.
"I have to be a wonder-woman and save my puppy" I complained "Can you stay here to check on the twins?" I asked Jackson.
"Of course"
Klaus holds up a pike and is about to stab Finn who was on the ground when we arrive at the scene. Elijah finally arrives and pulls Klaus off of him and shoves him into the tomb behind him.
Elijah says out of breath "You didn't answer my call."
Klaus smirks "Well, I was a little bit busy."
Elijah looks over at Finn, who is bleeding out on the ground a couple of feet away "I need him alive."
"Wait what?" I let out surprised. Finn had come after my children he should pay the consequences. What the hell was going on with Elijah?
"I've no time for your soft-hearted sympathies." Klaus tugs his arm out of Elijah's grasp, but Elijah plants himself between Klaus and Finn so he can't go after him "Stand aside." Elijah refuses to move, and Klaus gapes at him in disbelief.
Elijah and Klaus are still bickering while Finn lays bleeding on the ground, coughing and sputtering up more blood as time goes on.
"Let him die, Elijah!" lets out Klaus full of anger.
"Yeah I vote on this," I said raising my hand.
Elijah sighs and tells us "The witches want that body returned unharmed."
"Who cares what the witches want? There are a bunch of lunatic vindictive bitches" I complained.
We could always give back the dead body, they should be content with what we gave them. Besides it was not our fault this guy was possessed, it should be their duty to stop Flynn and get back to who the hell was this guy. He was part of their coven so it was their job. Typical of witches, complaining about vampires, werewolves, and siphons but then asking them to do the dirty work.
Klaus shouts angrily agreeing with me "And what else do they want? A parade? Free broomsticks for all?"
This actually made me chuckle and Elijah send me a disproving look. He asked me to come here to help him, not encourage Klaus but I couldn't stop myself. I was team Klaus on this.
"This alliance could be greatly beneficial to us all-"
Klaus interrupts Elijah "Yes? Well, currying some witch's favor does not concern me."
Suddenly, Freya appears next to us. Well, who I guess is the newest Mikelson member. She looked a lot like Klaus. I couldn't deny the resemblance.
"It should." Freya stops when she's joined us, and she smiles "Witch allies can prove valuable." She walks over to where Finn is laying as Elijah and Klaus gape in confusion.
"I think it's your oldest sissy," I tell them. She was kinda hot.
"Freya... Freya, help me," mumbles Finn confirming that this was indeed the oldest Mikelson, Freya.
Freya kneels next to him "Don't worry, brother. I won't let them hurt you." She uses her fingers to lift the blue pendant on her talisman toward him as she starts to cast a spell. Few witches had talismans like her, it was rare. She must be powerful. "Yovara vimuna virael." As she chants, her pendant starts to glow bright blue, and Finn suddenly starts to scream in agony as his body is healed "Yovara vimuna virael." Once the spell is done, Finn sits up in shock and stares up at the three Mikaelsons in horror.
The guy who had his body inhabited by the annoying Mikealson asks scared "Who are you?"
So it looked like Flynn wasn't in this dude's body anymore, good for him. Kinda disappointed it didn't look more like an exorcist. I was kinda a fan of horror movies.
Klaus looks at Freya in confusion and curiosity as she holds out two fingers and makes a sweeping motion over Vincent's face "Sleep" As she speaks, Vincent suddenly falls unconscious onto the ground. Elijah and Klaus gape at her in shock while I roll my eyes at them. They have been alive on this earth for a thousand years and this shocked them? Well, it didn't for me but maybe it was because I was a witch, kind of.
"What did you do to him?" asks Klaus suspiciously.
Freya holds up her pendant and smiles. She even had the same wicked smile as Klaus "Finn is now safe from harm, and his hatred of you can no longer do damage to our cause."
Elijah asks suspiciously "Our cause?"
Freya nods "Yes. Ours. And now, if you two can stop arguing long enough, perhaps you'll allow your older sister to offer you a deal."
I clap my hands happily. We were finally going somewhere with a powerful ally from what I saw. "Perfect, witchy Mikelson we want to hear about-"
Klaus cuts me off and protectively goes in front of me, which was annoying me. I told him many times I wasn't a damsel in distress, although his worrying for me was kinda cute. He scoffs "What could you possibly offer us besides fairy tales and lies?
Freya sighs "Whatever you may think of me, brother, know this... When I speak to you, it is the truth. If you have any doubts, remember that it was I who rescued Rebekah from the Fauline Cottage."
"And was it not also you who led Finn on his vile mission to take Kolina's life?" Elijah inquires full of skepticism.
"The threat to Kolina came from Finn, not me." Freya looks down at the ground, clearly upset by the thought "The brother I knew would never have stooped to threaten a child. Our mother destroyed him as she did me," She turns to Klaus ".. you, everything she touched."
Esther sounded even more like a bitch. A bigger bitch than my mother for sure. I hated mine because she was absent but I preferred it way better than a mother trying to kill me, selling me to her sister, trying to kill her grandchildren...
Klaus looks appalled "Do not speak as though we are familiars. We know nothing of you."
Great I thought annoyed, he was going to ruin a possible alliance. I truly believed that we could beat Dahlia with Freya at our side. Of course, first, we had to make sure of her loyalty I was not denying that. But my instinct told me we could trust her and I was 99% percent of the time right. Let's hope it wasn't the 1% percent right now.
Freya holds up each of her hands so that they are facing Klaus and Elijah's faces, while I am in the middle of them. We all receive a memory of Freya being taken by Dahlia, as first seen in Wheel Inside the Wheel.
KINGDOM OF NORWAY, 10TH CENTURY.
Dahlia has just picked up the young Freya and is leaving with her as Esther and young Finn both cry in despair. Freya is hysterical and screaming.
"I cannot give up my child! No, Dahlia, please!" begs Esther while holding Finn's hand.
Freya shrieks "Mommy! Mama!"
Freya ends the vision "Do you think me a liar?"
I could see the hurt in her eyes, she really wants to be accepted by her siblings and it reminded me of myself when I was younger. I wanted all of them to love me but they never did, so we killed them with Kai.
"Hey, Witchy Mikealson we-" I corrected myself "well I never said that. We just have to be sure of whose side you're on. Like evil witch or less evil siblings. You know to be sure, my baby's life is kinda on the line here and you appeared out of nowhere so..."
"I understand your distrust, but I mean no harm to your children. I just wish to be free"
"Btw you were really cute on the flashback memory thingy. I mean you still cute- well hot. You definitely have the Mikealson charm"
Freya was smiling at me, although she looked confused "Words are coming out of your mouth but I do not understand them"
"Oh right" I laughed " Sorry I forgot you were stuck in a coffin... Damn girl that's definitely a Mikealson tradition. Oh right Btw means by the way and Hot it's not about the weather, it means that you're like beautiful but in a sexy way. Oh I could teach you some stuff about the modern world" I rambled getting excited "when all this Dalila business is over of course"
"Elizabeth stop fraternizing with the enemy! She's not a Mikelson!" Klaus says furiously then he accused Freya "That proves nothing but your ability to conjure illusions."
"Before you dismiss me, you should know this: if I've woken from my slumber, Dahlia has as well. Once she's sensed your child's magic, she will come for her, and she has the power to kill anyone who stands in her way unless we kill her first. And if you displease her she'll take both of your daughters"
Crap, crap, crap this was getting real. She was awake. Fuck! I was definitely not letting them out of my sight now.
Klaus chuckled bitterly "That's quite convenient, isn't it? You show up in the nick of time to help us kill the woman with whom you've spent a thousand years!"
Freya gets frustrated and angry "You have no idea what it took to escape her or what I lost in the trying. Her punishment will be profound."
Elijah inquires sympathetically "And you know how to stop her?"
Freya nods "Given the proper materials, yes. I've sent Father to procure them."
"Awesome! Let's do that!" I say cheerfully. Finally, we were getting somewhere with this Dahlia situation.
Klaus grows even more furious "You put the life of my child in the hands of Mikael?" Crap I think I missed that. There was no way Klaus would work with Freya if Mikeal was involved.
He angrily storms off, but when Elijah calls his name, he stops walking.
"Niklaus. This woman knows the threat we now face and is willing to share that information."
"Well, you'll excuse me, Elijah, if I'm not inclined to trust the mysterious sister we only just met, but by all means, if you wish to entertain this idiocy, have at it." Klaus vamp-speeds away before Elijah can argue any further, leaving him alone in the cemetery with Freya, the unconscious Vincent, and myself.
Klaus could be a real drama queen sometimes.
"Thank you." Freya smiles at us shyly "Your kindness is much appreciated."
"I may be willing to accept your identity, Freya. That doesn't mean I trust you," responds Elijah.
"Then I will look forward to earning that trust."
"Uhh Klaus his annoying and paranoid like on another level... but if your really on our side he'll come around, give it a few months... maybe a few years he's really stubborn," I tell her.
She nods gives me a sad smile. It looked like she really wanted to be part of this family, although I didn't understand why they were kinda annoying and liked to stab each other. But they also loved each other a lot, and I remembered the times I wished I was part of my family. At the time I wished my siblings loved me, but they never did. So I hurt them as they hurt me.
Let's hope it doesn't end up as it did to me because I happen to like her siblings.
Klaus has just returned home and smiles as he dotes on Kolina and Kayla who are awake in their crib in the nursery. They are playing together and not crying like they were before when Elizabeth was taking care of them.
Elizabeth comes into the nursery, wearing her bathrobe, and joins him. Hayley's who was in the room sleeping on a chair, after taking care of the twins with Jackson's help wakes up.
Hayley whispers "You can thank Jackson for the quiet. He helped me calm them down"
Klaus's smile falls a little bit at this news.
"How long was their nap today?" I asked not noticing Klaus's face.
Before Hayley could respond Klaus asks me angered "You let our daughters in Jackson's care?"
I turn to him surprised by the venom in his voice "Humm...yes... I was kinda in a hurry when Elijah came" I respond honestly not seeing the problem.
"Well next time I would like to be aware of who is taking care of my daughters" he answers bitterly.
I suddenly understand what was the problem right now. Crap his insecurities with Jackson as he was the Alpha of the pack, connected with his insecurities about being a father did not help right now. On top of that with the Dahlia situation her being awoken and all that... So I decided to be the better person and not pick up a fight right now.
I rub his back gently "Okay no problem, I'll tell you next time"
Hayley gestures for us to join her out in the hall and Klaus reluctantly leaves the twins to follow her.
"You will be pleased to know that Finn is no longer a problem. However, there are other dangers on the horizon. My father is on the loose. I need you to use your pack to find him." he orders.
Hayley frowns "No. We already lost one of ours today, a good man. I won't let any more wolves die, Klaus."
Since when did she care about others' lives when it wasn't for her own benefit? What the fuck did Jackson do to her best friend? She missed the selfish Hayley honestly. But it had been a while since she disappeared... Since Hayley found her pack she suddenly became mother Theresa which annoyed Elizabeth since she expected the same change from her. Hayley was a real bitch and that was why she liked her. But now...her best friend was annoyingly nice and all about saving lives. So freaking annoying, she couldn't even brag about the people she killed with her.
Klaus yells frustrated "Mikael is a threat to my children! Your Goddaughters!"
"Mikael is a threat to you. The pack will protect the twins if he comes, but I'm not going to let you use them just to settle your old scores!"
The problem was that this was not only about settling old scores, Mikeal was the only person Klaus truly feared. He was Klaus's tormentor for the last thousand years and had actually tried to kill me and our children once.
Klaus smirks "Elizabeth tell your mate to stop her nonsense."
Hayley expects me to be on her side so when I'm not she looks disappointed. But Klaus was my kid's father and I didn't want them to grow up without their father.
"Uhh yeah, Mikeal should be stopped and the doggies could be of great help. I don't feel safe with him alive" for Klaus but also myself and the kids. Who knows what goes into that psychos mind? "last time I meet Papa Mikelson he kinda tried to" I made a motion pretending to slit my throat with my finger "because I quote I had "abominations festering my womb" so he could still be a threat to the twins"
Hayley scoffs "I already told you I don't want more wolves to die"
Klaus goes closer to Hayley and says angrily "Let me be as clear as possible: Your pack, your friends, your husband are a necessary means to keeping my daughters safe, but I am not running a charity hostel here." Hayley glares at him "If they are not fighting on my side, then they will not remain alive to fight at all."
Klaus goes to storm off again, but Hayley shoves him backward to stop him surprising me.
"You do what you need to do to keep them safe, Klaus. I'll do the same, but if you ever, ever use them to try to manipulate me again, it will be the last time that you see either of us."
Hayley angrily walks away from him, leaving Klaus looking furious out in the hallway.
"That why I don't have friends, look at yours. You freed her pack and when you ask for one favor no one is here to help" says Klaus bitterly as Hayley leaves.
Honestly, I wasn't in the mood to fight with Hayley, but I had to admit she was annoying lately. But I had bigger fish to fry like Dahlia.
I sigh "It's okay Nick we don't need the pack to kill Mikeal anyway. Maybe I could find a desiccation spell, I think I saw one in your mother's grimoires"
Klaus smirks devilishly "Your right love, I ended him myself once, I can do it again. No need for a spell I will use the white oak stake. Let's hope he stays dead this time"
I nod and tell him worried "You've been very frustrated lately, maybe... you should go full Doggie."
After being prisoner in his own body, his wolf needed to get out sometimes. It helped whenever he was frustrated, like right now. When he came from wolfing out he was always cheerful and relaxed.
Klaus suddenly takes me in his arms surpising me, he whispers in my ear "What if I'm frustrated for something else?"
I giggle understanding what he was insinuating "Dirty Nick"
We haven't slept together, in a while. Since our fight about Camille, actually. At first, he wanted to show me that not all was about sex in our relationship and but then the twins were back... And well taking care of two infants was taking a lot of time, so we didn't have time for ourselves. I was pretty tired after, taking care of the twins and didn't have the energy for sex.
We still hadn't gone on our date, since we were quite busy lately but Klaus promised he would surprise me when things were calm again. And we spend some time just hanging out, you know watching movies, walking around the quarter or just talking.
I had found out that watching history movies, like on Vikings or other stuff he lived was a nightmare because he couldn't stop commenting on what they did wrong. He wouldn't shut up. I was supposed to be the one that never shut up. This guy knew so much stuff that it was annoying sometimes, smart ass.
He kissed me in the neck making me chuckle. "Okay but you gotta be quick, I have to feed the twins soon"
He nods and the vamp speeds me to our bed. He rips my shirt leaving me in only my red bra. I take off my skirt and shoes next while he takes off his shirt. I go on my knees and start to unbuckle his belt while he smirks.
However, we are interrupted by babies' cries in the nursery.
"Oh, bloody hell" he muttered irritated.
I sigh and give a kiss Klaus "Raincheck?"
I was on the bed feeding Kayla her bottle while Klaus was standing up, feeding Kolina. For the past minutes, he has been ranting about how we couldn't trust Freya, he was already making plans on how to kill her. He was also making up few scenarios in which he always ended up killing his father.
He was pacing around the room, with Kolina in his arms and a bottle of milk in his hand, but my daughter didn't mind much. She found all the moving around smoothing and kept listening to her father carefully with wide eyes.
Suddenly finding the situation funny, I couldn't stop myself but laugh at the scene. The bid bad hybrid feeding a baby while talking about murder and all his issues. It was hilarious.
"Does my misery bring you joy?" he asked bitterly when I started laughing.
I put a hand in front of my mouth and tried to stop myself from chuckling, and after a few seconds of failure, I manage to stop myself from laughing.
"No no of course not... It's just it's hard to take you seriously when you are feeding a baby. Not very Vilain-ish."
Klaus rolls his eyes and then looks at his daughter with a smile.
"Besides don't worry about Freya, I feel we can trust her, and I can kill Papa original for you. See problems solved"
"No, it's out of the question he already almost killed you. I won't let take something from me ever again"
He won't let his brute of a father hurt her ever again. He still remembered his distress when she was unconscious while his father was on the other side trying to kill her. She wouldn't wake up with his blood and he felt powerless. He thought he was going to lose her and the twins. He realized how much he cared at that moment.
I sigh annoyed "I kicked his ass and I can take care of myself" I wanted to help Klaus as he helped me with my father when he came for me and the twins. Even if he didn't kill my father, because that meant I would die to he still saved me from him.
"I don't doubt that love, but I won't risk you harmed by him he already took too much from me"
"Okay but I can still help you a little bit. I'm mega-powerful, and you always need some witchy help"
Klaus smirks "Now that you mention it, I might need a locator spell"
I nod and tell him when Kolina's bottle is finished. "Now take her against your torso and gently clap her back."
"She might..." I start but I'm interrupted by Klaus, who was holding Kolina as I instructed him.
"Oh, bloody hell!" he mutters when Kolina spits up some milk on his shirt.
"...Vomit a little bit on you"
I chuckle once again and he groans annoyed "You do enjoy my misery"
I laugh once again and take some tissues. I always carried tissues now that I was a mother. Babies were a constant mess. I let Kayla on the bed, who had already finished her bottle before her sister. She was a quick drinker, and always finished her bottle pretty fast. I went to Klaus and took Kolina from his arms, and wiped the milk around the corners of her mouth. Then I gave tissues to Klaus but he rolled his eyes and just took off his shirt and threw it on the floor.
"I thought maybe they could sleep with us tonight" I suggested. Since we knew that Dahlia was awoken, I didn't want to let them out of my sight. I didn't care if it and unhealthy, nobody was taking my baby on my watch.
"On our bed?" he asked surprised.
"Yeah, your right the floor is more comfortable." I say sarcastically making him roll his eyes "It's just with Dahlia I want to keep them close you know"
"What if I crush them in my sleep?" Klaus asked uncertain. He was always careful not to hurt Elizabeth when she was human, but with infants, it was way more difficult. He had supernatural strength and his daughters were just frail little infants.
"That won't happen silly"
And that how we went to sleep, with our daughter in the middle of the night bed sleeping peacefully. We were all together as a family and it felt really good. Since their birth, we had only a few moments of just the four of us together and I was going to enjoy every minute of it.
