"Wake up lovely" Klaus whispered to Elena sleeping beside him in the car.

"Mmmm" She groaned, sleepily opened her eyes. Klaus tried not to stare too long but he couldn't help but notice how beautiful she looked when she woke up. So peaceful.

"We're finally here" He breathed a sigh of relief he hated having to sleep in a new place every few days.

"And where is here?" She rubbed her eyes looking out the window. She involuntarily gasped.

"One of my homes." He smiled. It was actually his favorite out of all the places he had which was a lot.

It was a log cabin mansion on a private lake with huge windows and multiple porches, all completely surrounded by a dense forest. She walked in slowly after Klaus. He chuckled at her when he noticed she was looking around in awe with her mouth open. It was just as beautiful inside as it was outside. Everything was either white or had a wood finish. There was a huge kitchen and comfy looking couches in front of huge TVs.

"You like it?" Klaus smiled at her.

"Yes. It kind of reminds me of my family's lake house. I can see myself feeling comfortable here." She smiled back at him as they locked eyes. Elena was the first one to break it. "Where is this exactly again?"

"The Adirondacks" He said as if it was obvious.

"Where in the Adirondacks?"

"That, I cannot tell you. Sorry sweets but if you let it slip to someone we wouldn't be able to stay here anymore and I really do love it here."

He watched Elena frown and felt bad for a second, until the doorbell rang.

"Wait here." He says cautiously.

Klaus looked through the peep hole and then laughed.

"Brothers! How are you?" He hugged them both. "Elena come say hi."

She got up and wandered back over to the door wondering which brothers he was happy to see. She was met with the faces of Kol and Elijah.

"Elijah" She smiled and ran into him giving him a hug.

"I'm glad to see you again Elena. Hope my brother has been treating you right."

"As of right now he is." She smiled and eyed him.

"Don't forget about me." Kol forced himself in between Elijah and Elena to give her a hug.

"Hopefully we can be friends like it seems you all are now." He said sweetly kisses her hand.

"I'm sure." Elena said but full well knowing what kind of person Kol was.

"That's enough Kol." Klaus grimaced at how he was touching her. "What brings you two here."

"Can we speak in private brother?" Elijah said in his usual business-like manner.

"Yes this way. Elena make yourself at home I will have someone show you up to your room."

"But-"Elena started to protest not knowing what he was talking about as he motioned towards a small woman with red hair.

"This is Lilah. She will show you around." He smiled and went off with his brothers.

Lilah picked up her suitcases silently and started walking Elena to her room. As she set her things on the floor and started to walk out Elena stopped her.

"Wait!"

"Yes miss?"

"Who are you?"

"Oh, I'm one of Klaus' witches. If you need anything all you have to do is ask." She smiled and continued to walk out. Guess she was on her own until master Klaus decided to tell her otherwise.

Xxxx

"So brother's what brings you here?" Klaus said pouring scotch into tumblers for them all.

"Damon is looking for Elena." Elijah said simply

"I figured he would. Has he made any headway?" Klaus raised his eyebrows warning him he better have the right answer.

"He followed me when I went looking for you a few days ago but I went another way."

"I know." Elijah turned his head to the side confused. "He almost saw us luckily I shut Elena up before she did any real damage."

"So harsh Nik." Kol smiled devilishly "That doppelganger you have there is hot, if you play your cards right you can have her any way you want." He wiggled his eyebrows up and down.

"God Kol do you have to think of woman like that all the time." Klaus said rolling his eyes. "Maybe for once I need a girl for something other than sex, have you thought of that?"

"No." He laughed uncontrollably Elijah sighed and continued talking trying to change the subject. He hated to hear them talk about Elena like that.

"He believes I am helping him find her and that I will let him know when I have a plan."

"And Stefan? The witch?"

"Bonnie has been trying to do a tracking spell for days but the spell Lilah put on you both is working wonders and Stefan doesn't seem to care. Although I know he does which may prove to be a problem for us in the future."

"Fine. Don't tell Rebekah where we are still. I know she will tell Damon. She has a fascination with him that is baffling. Well if that's all then I will see you next time we have our meeting." Klaus smiled.

"Not just yet." Kol stood up. "We know the other reason you are keeping Elena here and we want in."

"And that is?" Klaus feigned confusion

"I heard from a little birdy that if Elena ever becomes a vampire your hybrids will die out."

"Then why would I take her you idiot. She was fine being human with the Salvatore's protecting her."

"Well that same little birdy told me that they were going to make her one themselves. And you found out and went berserk."

"Klaus?" Elijah looked to him wondering if this was the truth.

"I guess you have been talking to that two faced brother of ours and Mother." Klaus said trying not to convey how upset he was that they knew.

"Mother and Finn? Why?" Elijah stepped forward.

"The original witch decided to put a spell me when she found out I was making hybrids with her blood. If she was ever turned into a vampire the blood from Elena in them would kill them. She was clearly getting desperate when she couldn't keep us linked to kill me." He chuckled darkly.

"So that's really why you took her into hiding and you're afraid Rebekah will tell Mother where you are." Elijah mused.

"I also did it to punish Stefan. I never thought she would get turned into a vampire under the watchful eye of the Salvatore brothers but when Stefan almost drove her off a bridge I thought it was time to take care of her myself."

"Well now that the truth is out brother we should be off." Kol smiled enjoying outing people.

"Wait." Elijah interrupted him form leaving. "I'm going to stay for a few weeks. I'm sure Elena would like some extra company anyways. I imagine it is hard on her being away from all her loved ones right now."

"Fine very well. You too Kol?" Klaus said grumpily.

"Why not?" He smiled.
