The Abattoir :
Klaus POV :
It was the early hours of the morning he was stood on one of the rarely used living Rooms on the first floor , watching Over Hayley as she feed on the woman he compelled for her to learn to control her bloodlust .
He watched her face attentively , his eye's tracking the dark veins around her eyes and the alluring wild visage that the blood dripping from her Fang's and from her pink petals Lip's was giving him Chill's .
He tampered down on the blinding list and desire that was churning on his lower abdomen , and tore his eyes away from her with difficulty gulping down and taking a deep breath to calm his burning body .
Hayley let go of the woman and Bite her finger and urged her to drink and heal , she Looked into her eyes after helping the dazed woman clean up and compelled her , " you will return home and rest and Remember nothing of what Happened tonight " . she ordered calmly .
The woman nodded her eyes unfocused before she left , Hayley turned to him expectantly with a Hopeful expression as she cleaned her Mouth with a tissue from the tissue box , " well what is your final verdict ? " . she asked him curiously .
He sighed and complemented her with a smile , " your control is Getting better and better especially with you being only a week old , you are surprisingly controlled and self possessed " . a fact that brought him a great amount of pride .
Her face lit up in happiness and pride as she gave him a raised brow , " thank you , I do work hard on my control , but that wasn't what I was asking about and you know it " . she said pointedly .
He sighed and didn't hide his worry and irritation as he made his concern clear , " Hayley you are barley a week old, and as Good as your control is it won't be enough for you to interact with other's , especially not with your pack it will get you emotional , we don't want anything compromising you right now ".
Hayley's lips twisted into a pout and she narrowed her eyes before launching her own attack , " Klaus I need to visit the Bayou , they are my people and they need to know that I'm alive and kicking . I know that you are keeping them at pay as much as you can without antagonising them " . she said with a pointed look that made him sigh but he refused to feel Guilty , Damn it .
" I will also like to remind you that most of the country pack's are camping on my territory waiting to meet Hope , and they won't leave until they do , I may as well take her with me and get this done with in one visit " . she suggested firmly to him bringing him back to the source of his headache .
Their eyes were locked in a Battle of well , he could easily see the determination and the flare of stubbornness on them . he took a deep breath and made a suggestion of his own . " how about the two of us pay them a visit today and extend them a formal invitation to meet Hope here !? , she is too young for me to feel at ease bringing her to that swamp " .
Surprisingly she smirked triumphantly and agreed immediately , " deal " . she said Happily .
It was his turn to narrow his eyes as he hissed , " you played me !! " . he accused her .
Her smirk bloomed into a half proud half coquettish smile as she replayed smugly, " it's your fault for playing around with my pack and thinking that I won't notice , and for believing for a second that I will take my newborn Baby into the Bayou for people to gawk at , I even got you to accompany me . guess Bex is a fine teacher after all " .
Damn Rebekah and her lesson's on politics and acting she was imparting to the Girls , he was torn between feeling angry for being played so easily and Feeling proud at how far his warrior Queen has came .
ALGIERS :
The streets of the neighborhood were packed with musicians playing instruments , while others sell merchandise in stalls . Marcel was talking to his second Diego about taking in a new potential vampire recruits to fill in on their depleted and low number .
They looked up when they were joined by Elijah who emphasised firmly , " you must be particular in selecting new blood if you plan to expand your number back " . that draw the two attention as they looked at him curiously waiting for him to Elaborate .
Elijah smiled and explained , " we invited some of our old friends for an extended stay in the city , you some of them Marcel after all it was Dixon who taught you how to wield the sword " . he finished with an evil smile .
Marcel sported an unnatural pale tone and his eyes widened in both horror and joy making Diego more intrigued and curious , " that Mad Dog is coming Back !? " . Marcel asked him astonishment .
" He will never miss the chance to take on any strong opponent , and with the strix and Lucien Making their way here soon . he could at least beat you all to a shape where we won't have to worry over you ending as collateral damage " . Elijah explained seriously .
" so they are really coming !? " . Diego asked him warily .
" in a year or less , be prepared to fight for your existence , if they get their wish and unlinked you from us you die in a few centuries . if they managed to kill us then you die with us , we will be fighting for survival not dominance " . Elijah stressed Darkly and at the two determined and worried nods he left to carry on his tasks , " select warriors Marcel , you know the sign and could see the fire in them . it's what Klaus had seen in you after all " . he throw behind his back .
The Abattoir :
Hayley's Bedroom :
Klaus smiled down at his daughter who squirmed softly in his arm's burrowing her face deeper into the soft light pink Blanket that she was swaddled in , her Blue eyes , his eyes . he smiled to himself the sight of his eyes on a face that resembled Hayley so much never failed to fill him with joy and primal pride .
His daughter was much much more beautiful than he imagined her to be , than he draw her or when he saw her in visions , maybe cause he can bask on the warmth of her tiny body , and take on her fast racing heartbeat and lazy expressions .
He never cared much to his eyes , a feature he and Rebekah inherited from their traitorous mother . he had heard countless complements about them from women he was involved with , they were his best features with his Dimples after all , another thing that his daughter inherited .
But seeing them not in the mirror but in his daughter small sweet face made him rethink all his prior thoughts , everytime he meet those small blurry blue little orbs he couldn't help but fell in love more and more . He , Klaus Mikaelson , the Original Hybrid , a renowned monster , warrior , Conquerer and King several time's over . was conquered , his heart stolen from his chest and it lay completely and hopelessly on the Hand of his Little Girl and her mother .
He looked up from his new habit of watching every expression and minute growth of his daughter , God He has a Daughter . he is father now , a real one . not the half friendship half paternal Affection he had on with Marcel . he Looked up to see Hayley standing over them with her Phone out , probably taking a video of them as is her own new Habit she beamed down at them her face and smile radiant like the sun .
He couldn't help but be mesmerized by her for the umpteenth time today alone , he smiled back at her not able to resist the joy and contentment in her Hazel green eyes . Who would have thought that one day he would have this , a child to love and treasure a woman who didn't look at him with infatuation and love but with respect , love and contentment like she loved him as he is the monster and the man .
" How are my two favorite wolves ? , Did you enjoy your Morning feed with Daddy , Baby ? " . Hayley cooed to her daughter with her index finger smoothing down a crease on her footsie , before moving to take the empty Bottle from his hand and put it away to be washed and sterilized .
He passed her Hope who tried to turn her fragile neck to see her mother , most likely recognizing her voice . Hayley smile was filled with love and softness reserved only for their Baby as she took her from him gently and barbed her all the while talking to her as she cleaned and swaddled her up again , before passing her back to him to finish dressing up .
She moved to her dresser and put on a small pair of studded Earring's , a light layer of lipstick . fixed her white blouse that was tucked into her light distressed blue skinny jeans , zipped up her ankle Boots and put on her light Grey lining blazer pocketed her phone and looped her elbow with his as the three of them made their way to the first floor to meet with their family .
As soon as they entered the Dinning room , Rebekah jumped off her chair and snatched Hope carefully off his arm . she beamed down at her niece as she cried out softly not to spoke her ," Finally , I thought that noon will be among us before your mean parents would leave us alone . your selfish Daddy was monopolizing you again wasn't he , wasn't he !? " .
Hayley giggled as she greeted the others surprisingly unconcerned by Rebekah's ambush , nor was she offended like Klaus who was glaring at his sister mockingly , " don't tempt me to take her back from you " . he threatened her .
Rebekah snorted and looked up from where she was sited beside Marcel the two of them cooing and fawning over Hope , the two were the most visibly taken by her after Klaus . Kol was the most Flamboyant , Elijah and Finn were dotting but reserved and Mature . Bonnie and Davina were fascinated , and hesitant due especially to their inexperience with Baby's . " please Nik , we Both know that aside of Amanda and Hayley I'm the most competent with Babe's , you need me and will come to need me . so keep your threats to minimum " . she said with haughty Smirk .
Finn Brusted out laughing as he put down his earl grey tea a new found favorite beverage , Marcel Booed at him and Hayley sent him a side look as she rested her cheek on her Palm clearly entertained . " return back my daughter to me , I will prefer to trouble Amanda with her than leave her to your competent care " . he sneered at her and Kol who was reading over Davina's math textbook raised his head and suggested easily .
" I can look after the little Darling for you two , I will be free this afternoon anyway . I may as well st..." . he was cut off by the unanimous cry of , " No !!! " . from every one .
Klaus sent him a murderous growl , Finn and Hayley's had a horrified expressions on , Bonnie looked worried and Rebekah gaped at her brother . as well as Marcel who looked ready to bolt with his sister to save her from their insane uncle .
Kol expression was offended and hurt as he defended himself , " what with the reaction ? , I would have you know that I'm good with children " .
" Children not Babes Kol , and I only have this one daughter so thank you very much I won't like you to trouble yourself with her " . he declined through gritted teeth , trying not to snap at his brother just for wanting to spend time with his Niece .
Beside him Hayley was pale but she didn't lose her composer yet , " I just gave birth to her a week ago , could you please put a hold on your corruption plans until she is older , like at least ten years older ! " . Hayley pleaded with him .
" Fine you sourboar's " . Kol backed down with a pout . " my apologizes little love , we won't be having gun today , blame your parents " . he cooed to the Baby who was staring up at him with big baby blue eyes .
he know that she can't see him well yet to make out his features but he Hoped that she will recognize his voice and later on connect it to his face , that how children form familiarity , or so Bekah said .
He grinned down and planted a kiss to her tiny little nose before reluctantly passing her to her mother who showered her tiny hand with kisses with Klaus doing the same to her cheek , " just make sure not to kiss her to oblivion , aye brother , Hayley " . he teased the two new parents .
Hayley smiled at him before passing her baby to Amanda , who will be watching over the baby with Rebekah until her parents return . " i can't help it , I literally can't resist her cuteness , I must have been an adorable baby too " . Hayley lamented with a smirk . " we really did good Job don't you think Klaus ! , our Baby is so adorable I want to just gobble her up " .
Klaus Brusted out laughing , as he herded her out the Abattoir . " that we did , she is the most beautiful babe in the world in my eyes , and I'm confident that you were equally as beautiful my little wolf , but let's not Daly any further , Hm ! " .
The Abattoir :
Davina's Room :
Davina was studying a Grimoire and taking notes in her own notebook while Kol was going through her textbooks with a frown of distaste .
" is this the caliber of modern education !? , where is your Latin and Greek textbooks ? " . Kol Demanded with a disgusted expression .
" ah , I don't think we have hose classes on my school it's either Spanish , French , German and Italian . my French textbook is on the desk " . Davina answered him absentmindedly .
" what witch doesn't know her Latin and Romanian !? " . Kol asked her with an askanced expression .
His words were enough to draw her attention from the Grimoire in her hands as she answered him with a smirk , " new Orleans ones , especially the French quarter coven " .
" how do you preform the Latin spells I taught you without understanding them !? " . Kol Demanded as he narrowed His eyes at her .
Davina gave him a sheepish smile and answered in a low tone , " I just memories them by heart " .
Kol face was thunderous as he lectured her with a Sweet tone , " first thing love mumbling is a bad habit , it's a sign of weakness and guilt . second my hearing is supernaturally Sharp I can hear the very pounding of blood in your veins , so speak clearly . third you are telling me I spent nearly six months teaching you spells only for you to memories by heart , without understanding a word risking confusing and butchering them !? " .
" yes " . Davina replied with a nervous smile .
" his do you understand the text I task you to read !? " . he asked her with confusion .
Davina waved her phone as she gave him a pointed look , " um ... Google translator " . she deadpanned .
"Oh the shame , the horror , the disgrace , that has befallen me " . Kol Groaned theatrically .
Davina pierced her lips to stop herself from blurting out a quibbed that will earn her the original ire .
" your deceiving of my person aside " . Kol sniffed half jokingly , " what of your other areas of education , the rhetoric , logic astrology and philosophy , music , self-defense and horsemanship !? " . he asked curiously .
Surprised by his interest in her schooling , she blinked and put aside her work to focus on this conversation , " uh , I took Art instead of music , I don't like philosophy , we have debate I participated in the club for a few months before dropping out . I never had self-defense classes or seen a real horse in my life " . she answered honestly .
Kol was looking at her with a mixer of shock , offense , worry and pity . " Davina you can't relay on only your magic to protect yourself , take Bennett for example she was cut off her power and has to fight against Witch's hand on hand ... you know nothing of music !... No Latin or logic or history of Art !! " . he marveled worriedly .
Davina blinked her eyes trying to figure out the reason of her mentor / crush distress , " aside from self-defense and Latin , I think that I'm learned enough . I love music and I'm knowledgeably enough for my generation " . she reasoned with Kol .
Kol face twisted into a determined one As he jumped to his feet's and pulled her out the Room with hi as he lectured half declared , " i wil be starting you in self-defense I won't have you vulnerable in this hell city especially with my dear parents alive and kicking , I promised to make you into a powerful witch . one that every supernatural will learn to respect and avoid " .
He stopped and turned to give her a soft smile that turned into impish one , " the first step to accomplish that is to turn you into a strong woman , and for that you needed to be learned . something I had neglected to check . fear not my little love I will I remedy that now " .
He throw open the door to the music Room and pushed her into an armchair before moving to retrieve some music sheets , " let's Begin with the basic , shall we ! " . he asked her with a vengeful smile .
Blindsided , and scared of more lesson , she could only look at Kol with the same horrified and scared look one would send the devil .
LAFAYETTE CEMETERY :
Esther and the witch possessing Vincent body were walking through the cemetery , where the Witch's had finished giving their reports to Esther who was possessing the harvest girl Cassie Body .
" what do you gain from playing this political game's , instead of exacting our plans to destroy your children !? " . Vincent asked once the Witch's were out of earshot .
Esther sighed exasperatedly as she eyed the witch with cold challenge as she answered , " we may come to need them at one point or another in our plans , either way keeping them in our Good graces will only bring us benefits " .
" why are we not moving on yet then ? , why won't you tell me your whole plan !? Choosing instead to trust me with minim details !? " . The with possessing Vincent body demanded angrily .
Esther who was busy with an artifact in her hands , didn't look up as she answered her calmly , " patience is a virtue my dear Luce , your hate for Niklaus blind you to the fact that we are in need for a central piece before we can exact our plans " .
Luce looked at her quizzically waiting for her to elaborate , " we need the only weapon that can destroy my children , which is in the possession of Niklaus " . Esther explained to her and Luce eyes widened in downing realization as she looked at Esther with clear interest , " and how do you plan to retrieve it ? " .
Esther smirked as she looked up from the artifacts and gave her a cold smile , " I do not trust you with such important details , after all you were one of Niklaus most sycophant servant once . and as much as you allegedly want Revenge on his betrayal of your affection and your family's death I had learned ago not to trust important tasks to none but myself , you know your parts of the plans and you will do nothing but fulfill them to the best of your capabilities or you will find yourself banished back to the otherside " . Esther emphasised every word making her threat clear as she asked her softly but dangerously , " Do you understand Lucinda !? " .
Lucinda glared at Esther with hate, anger , humiliation and fear as she gritted out her answer , " I understand " .
Esther smiled a sweet , Serene smile as she moved to enter the Lycée , where a large Kyanite Rock was situated , Luce who entered after her asked her curiously but with a hint of bitterness to her tone , " what are your plans for this rock's !? " .
Esther smiled as she run her fingers over the rock's , " these Rocks are our key into creating a strive among the quarter when I arm the wolves opposing Andrea's ascension to Alpha with them , I would be creating an army that will threaten Andrea's position and power a thing that my children won't stand for especially Niklaus " .
Luce mouth twisted in distaste , " yes he is rather uncharacteristically invested on someone else power and prestige " .
Esther face crumbled in worry and anger , " true , but with an army of wolves at our peak and call we can press on against my children and then we would be able to teach them the error of their vampire ways " . she declared .
Luce face didn't change but her eyes and tone were sharp as she asked , " what of Hayley and her child !? , Klaus child !? " .
Esther turned from her her face twisted and crumpled with Regret before it return to it's mask of determination just as she answer her , " the child especially will have to go ... I can't allow a child of my blood and with such power to fall into her hand ... Not again " . she finished the last parts on a whisper to Herself drawing conviction and strength from them .
THE BAYOU :
She and Klaus had just arrived at the werewolf encampments and were making their way to the small village where the crescent are residing , Hayley did her best to ignore the looks of curiosity and wariness aimed at her and made sure to keep her chin up , refusing to lose her nerves or let her worries show before the real trial of facing her elders and pack members as a Hybrid not the pure Werewolf queen they anticipated .
" Relax sweetheart , you have nothing to fear " . Klaus whispered to her as he brushed his fingers to her Reassuringly .
She turned to him with a wane smile , " I'm not scared Klaus , just heart arrestingly nervous " . she whispered back .
" are you worried that they will not accept your claim over Kenner's or their reaction to your ... transition " . he asked her with a calm expression his eyes shining with curiosity .
" You should know that If there's one thing these people hate more than vampires , it'shybrids . and Jackson has no claim over my own period " . she answered him with a sad smile .
" What theyhateis their lack of power . Hence the future willingness of their brethren to deal with mother in exchange for rings ! But , she hasn't started producing them yet , so , we need to get to them first and ensure they align with us before she contact them " . Klaus insisted , his nose then wrinkled in distaste as he continued on , " I'm gladden to hear that you have no intention to pass on your Rights to Kenner , or I would have to remind you of that promise you gave to me before " . he subtly reminded her .
She sighed and replied with a mock glare , " I don't know what I was thinking giving you that promise , but if I can't win them my way you can have your chance to convince them but please keep the bloodshed to minimum " . she urged him pleadingly .
He brought her fingers up and planted a devious but sweet kiss on her hand as he promised her with a charmingly devious grin , " that I can Grant , so what is your plan of action !? " .
" I plan to talk to them , sooth their worries and Hopefully come to agreement with Jack without touching on a particular topic , just pray for me " . she answered him determinedly , praying that Jackson will not bring up their engagement this time too or she would be cornered .
" well , they are all yours until I have to deal with them personally " . He stated cheerfully with a smile that was more a flash of teeth to the wolves waiting by the main cottage to greet them .
Why did she think bringing him with her for moral support was a good idea ! .
THE BAYOU :
Hayley put on a calm smile as she walked to meet the two Keeners , Lillian , Eve and the Elders . she breathed in through her nose and tried to slow down her racing heart , all the while scolding herself for being nervous .
She had done this once before , had met her people as Hybrid and had browbeat them and convinced them to make her their alpha . and she would do it again , for Hope for herself and their sakes .
She smiled as she moved to greet the surprised wolves who were eyeing her oddly , probably sensing the change on her and trying to figure out what is wrong with her appearance , as she already knew that vampire blood had ride her off all the side effects of giving birth , like the protruded stomach and dry , spotty or blotchyskin that was common in pregnancy and after birth .
She know that she looked like she didn't even give birth just a week ago or in her entire knife , hell , she looked even prettier according to Davina . something Rebekah attributed to the joy of motherhood .
" Hayley , thank God " . Jackson breathed out joyfully as he swept her into a fierce hug , " we thought the worst when we couldn't reach you " . he told her when he pulled back to look her over eagerly .
He turned his head and sent Klaus beside her a vicious glare , " and some people had done their best to make it harder for us to reach you " . he accused angrily .
Klaus rolled his eyes at him and waved his hand dismissively , " oh tosh , I told you times and times again that she is well and in need of peace to recover " . Klaus snarked .
" yes , cause seeing her for ten minutes would have caused her to collapse of tiredness " . Jackson Growled .
She sighed and left the two to their squabble giving up on making them get along this time around and moved to greet Mary , Who smiled at her joyfully as she greeted her with sincere happiness , " I'm happy to see you well and moving , especially after your terrible ordeal " . her expression turn serious as she asked her , " How is your little girl !? " .
" Beautiful and as healthy as could be . I want you to come and meet her Tomorrow " . Hayley invited the two Kenner's who beamed in joy .
" that is wonderful to hear " . Mary said kindly , before nodding to Klaus and squeezing her into another hug , " my congratulations for the both of you " .
Klaus returned a polite nod and smile , " thank you " . he said genially .
Hayley closed her eyes and basked on the wormth and the affection that Mary has always lavished on her And Hope , she had loved them and stood by them as if they were her own flesh and blood . " thank you Mary , you will love " . she whispered to the older woman .
Mary smiled and returned the sentiment , " that's out of question " .
She moved to hug Lillian and Eve each of who has words of congratulations , before they all moved to the cottage to speak with a medium of privacy .
Mary was the first to bring her transition up as they moved to sit around the table , she had taken her shoulder halting her steps as she questioned her , " what happened to you ? " . she asked seriously with a hint of worry .
Her words stopped everyone in track and she noticed Klaus body relaxing into a fake slouch that only relaxed his muscles minutely allowing him to spring at any moment but without drawing the others attention .
She looked Mary and Jackson on the eyes as she answered them with all the pride she had learned to take to her new but old identity , " one of the Witch's killed me , I was brought back to life and completed my transition into a Hybrid " . she summarized softly .
Silence filled the air as the wolves digested her words before their faces broke into horrified and furious expressions , " oh God Andrea ! " . Eve breathed out tearfully .
Mary's body slacked in distress , regret and pity , Jackson looked murderous and devastated probably knowing what that will mean to his plans for future children .
Mary hugged her again comfortingly , " at least we have you with us now " . she said kindly . " everything will be fine " .
" what do you mean by everything will be fine " . an Elder spat out angrily , " she is no more a wolf , no more one of us . she should have chosen death over tainting her blood like... " .
" Gareth " . Mary and Jackson Growled out one in askance the other furiously .
Hayley shoot the murderous Klaus a warning look , he pierced his lips that he opened to blast the Wolf but kept silent with a displeased frown .
Hayley shrugged her shoulder and returned with all the calmness , " too bad for you , I don't care what you think . I'm what I'm now and I won't be humiliated or looked down on for choosing my daughter and live over dying to keep my blood ... Untainted " . she finished with a twist of her lips .
" you choose wisely " . Mary stated firmly . " your life is more important , you are too important for us to lose you to death " .
Jackson squeezed her shoulder as he one arm hugged her and said with conviction , " I don't care , I hate what had happened to you ...but I will take it anytime over losing you " .
" that's you , we will not accept a vampire ad one of us , let Alone as our alpha " . another Elder gritted out vehemently , " our line's has always being powerful and uncorrupted . we had been enemies with vampires since they were first created . we will not be associated with them through her " .
Hayley sighed inwardly not surprised by the two elders fury and opposition , Gareth and Rick were old and held on tight to their pride and hatred to anything that wasn't a wolf like them , Witch's vampires and even wolves , they were a source a constant source of headache to her until they were killed by the kingsmaker's company .
An incedient unmourned by her .
He glared at Hayley and sneered , " I agree with Gareth , was it not enough that you have shamed us and your family by birthing a basterd to the half vampire you became one yourself ... You will be cast out , and n..." .
" Hold your tongue , or I'll tear it from your gaping mouth " . Klaus hissed lowly his eyes shining amber .
She shoot Klaus her staunchest supporter in both lives , an appeasing but thankful smile as she reminded him , " Klaus ,We didn't come here to fight " .
" thank you " . she smiled graciously at the two Kenner's before ignoring the Elder and addressed the room occupants , " I'm here to extend a formal invitation for you and our guest alpha's to visit the abattoir and meet my daughter " . she said gently .
She turned to Jackson before addressing other most vocal point , " I came here to settle down the matter of pack hierarchy , Our pack has been divided s , we were run off and hunted down for so long that we forgot what it's like to be at Home , what we need and our pack need right now is a leader . Someone who will reunite us and make us strong again , Someone who will fight for our pack there is only you and i to choose from . but I want you to know that If you let me , I can be that person " . she addressed everyone of her pack in the room speaking sincerely before Returning to Jackson .
" I trust you to do the same , so how are we to settle this !? " . she asked him seriously .
Gareth scoffed as he cut in before Jackson could replay , " there is no need to settle this , none of us will follow you . we will never follow a blood parasite over a wolf of our own ".
Rick sighed as he pointed at Klaus , " especially now that we are more certain they you will be pushing their agendas , no you Andrea labonair are no longer a crescent wolf or one of us ".
She tried her best not yo let their words cut her but it did , especially this time as she truly thought that with her effort on being a better kin and leader she had gain their trust enough to overlook her Circumstance
in favor of her efforts and skills , even for her blood they worshipped so much was not enough t forgive her in their eyes .
Klaus face and body radiated fury as he vamps speeds over to Rick who was the nearest to him and lifted him high up with one hand clamped around his neck cutting off his air , he noticed the startled and worried looks the others were giving him . she hurried to part his shoulder in silent plea , Klaus Growled as he Throw him down at her feet where he laid flat on his back before he stomped on his chest with his boot , " Well , at least you didn't drag this out " . he stated with a bloodthirsty smile .
" Nik , you promised me " . she reminded him not wanting him to alienate himself of her people who were eyeing him warily and only their loyalty to her and fear of the hybrid beside him stopped from interfering .
Klaus gave her a gentle reprimanding look , as he lectured her , " You need to learn about the art of politics , love . You gain support bykillingyour detractors ! . especially ones who don't hesitate to pry into your kindness " .
" They may not like me very much , but these people ,including the douchebag under your feet , are my family . Let him go .Now " . she urged him again trying to make this point clear , praying that just this time he will understand and respect her loyalty to her pack , the same pack she always disappointed and put down second to his family and their daughter .
Klaus looked around at all of the wolves who were watching them intently and when his eyes met with Jackson's he smiled provocatively before releasing the elder under him . " You see ? There's your queen . Powerful , fearless , and , unlike me ,merciful " . he emphasised every word and once again giving her Shivers of delight and pride in herself and his respect and conviction on her .
He turned to address Her by taking hold of her chin by his for finger and thumb and looked into her eyes intently , " These people need to show you more respect , the respect you deserve I won't stand for anything less even if you don't became their alpha , you will always be their Queen and better . How you handle them now is up to you but I want you to remember the promise you gave me in return " .
At her nod and beaming smile he kissed her brow and went out , " I will wait for you by the car " .
The Bayou :
Klaus raised his eyes once he noticed Hayley's return he straightened up in his seat and turned the car on , Hayley slipped inside the car silently with a pale face that had his stomach flipping worriedly .
" Hayley ! " . he asked Curiously trying to rein his worry in .
Hayley turned to him with a wave look as she bite her lower lip before motioning for him to move the car , " not now please , let's return home first " . she begged .
" Not until i learn what did the mutt say to have you so upset !? " . he insisted , barely holding himself back from leaving the vehicle to hunt for the mutt head and plant it in spike .
Hayley smiled at him and let out a sigh , " it's just old family obligations that came to hunt me even now " .
The Abattoir :
Klaus looked up from his place by the fireplace were he was nursing a scotch while discussing his parents with Elijah , Finn and Kol . who each were lounging with their preferred spirit on hand .
" Mother had got her hand on a large quantity of kyanite stones , and she is enlisting Witch's for a project that was order by the ancestors " . Elijah reported his finding to them .
" so she want to play the wolves against us , and she may succeed " . Klaus said warily .
" I thought Hayley got the wolves on her pocket !? " . Kol asked curiously .
" she used too before she was turned , her new status had brought her disapproval and mistrust from her lot " . Klaus sneered furiously .
" OK , you are telling me that after all she did or you all did they won't make her their alpha !? " . Bonnie who was working on her laptop while listening to them asked in disbelieve and anger .
" apparently not easily " . Klaus answered the witch , garnering the others frustration .
" so the wolves are not in our side , what of your father , any plans to dispose of him yet !! " . Marcel asked his surrogate father inquisitively .
" father will stay alive for now , at least infill we Handle our dear aunt Dahlia " . Finn stated firmly .
" yeah and how do you plan to keep the destroyer from destroying us then ? " . Marcel demanded angrily .
" by enlisting the help of the only person he loved more than anyone , our sister Freya " . Elijah answered him calmly .
Marcel , Davina and Bonnie has shocked and flabbergasted expressions on , " what sister !? " . Davina asked incredulously .
" since when you had another sister !? " . Bonnie demanded with astonishment .
" whoa , I thought that she was dead from the plague !!" . Marcel inquired flabbergasted .
