Potter Home, Mystic Falls

Athena was tired of her family hovering around her and equally aware of eyes that followed her constantly, like she was going to break any moment. She was tired of the pitying looks she had been receiving all week. On top of her coming transformation and Damon's revelation which made her feel like a hypocrite, this wasn't something she needed. The fact that she felt angry all the time, and Ron and Stefan's constant visits about how she was holding up, she was about to snap. Which was why she was at her house after a long time for some freaking peace without anyone around. She understood that they were worried about her, but why couldn't they understand that she had been accustomed to take care of herself. In fact, she had done it all her life! It wasn't that she didn't appreciate their concern, but the last thing she wanted for them to be bothered about her. No matter how discreet her dad tried to be, she hadn't missed how troubled he had been ever since they rescued her from the cell. Nor had she missed his conversation with Elijah about how he blamed himself for her situation, agonising over things which were out of their control.

As if that wasn't enough, Damon just had to confess everything right in the middle of it all. Telling her that he didn't regret killing Lavender if it meant saving her, and if the situation arise, would do it all over again. And the man had the nerve to disappear on her after telling her that he loved her! She had been furious at first, but now that she had the time to think about it, she realised that perhaps Damon did the right thing. Didn't she do the same? Killed a man because he was torturing Damon? Wasn't it exactly the same? Now that she knew that he killed Lavender because she was torturing her. Athena didn't regret killing Wes because he was hurting Damon and her only instinct was to save him by any means possible, so she ended up killing him. She hadn't given a thought that he might have a family and hadn't spared a glance back when he was burned inside the house. Has it been same for Damon? He didn't know Lavender and for all intent and purposes, she was a stranger to him. She had not only tortured Athena and Damon himself, but his brother as well. She didn't know who had Imperiused Lavender, but it could be entirely possible that whoever it was, would've killed her and maybe the Salvatore's as well.

But Damon had known that Lavender wasn't in control of herself, while she had killed Wes because he knew what he was doing! Should she actually forget and forgive Damon because he loved her? Athena was sure that if she did, the guilt which she had buried somewhere deep inside would kill her.

There was no doubt in her mind that she still loved Damon. Of course, she did! What gnawing at her the most was the fact that she fell in love with someone so soon after Fred! Did she even love him? And maybe it was her own guilt that was stopping her from contacting Damon.

It had been three days and she didn't have the guts to contact him even now. She should've talked to him, especially now because he thought that she hated him, which wasn't true at all. For some time, she thought she did too, but she had been too angry to understand the difference between being hurt and connecting it to hatred. There was also the fact that she didn't think she could actually hate Damon. Even thinking about his words made her feel butterflies in her stomach and at the same time, it made her want to puke with the amount of stress and apprehension she felt.

Athena drowned rest of the whiskey down and felt it burning her throat. She heard a light bulb shattering somewhere in the house and winced, but ignored it in favour of pouring another glass for herself. Who knew? Maybe 'drowning in her sorrows' would allow her a reprieve she was searching for! But before she could pick the glass, someone picked it up and took a leisurely sip.

"Uncle." She muttered sarcastically.

"You're too young to drink." Elijah chastised without looking at her.

"I'm old enough to drink! I've been drinking since I was 14!" She snapped at him angrily.

"Well… you're the youngest, so suck it up." Rebekah stated as she settled in front of her with a smile.

"Great… the whole family's here." Athena mumbled under her breath, knowing all too well that the two could hear her.

"Its just us. Nik doesn't know." Rebekah said before adding softly, "You know he wants to keep you safe, don't you?"

I know." Athena sighed. "Its just… too much. So much has happened and…"

Elijah eyed her niece and said after sometime, "You get your temper from your father. When we were human, he used to get just as angry if we 'crowded' him, sulking alone somewhere no one would know."

"I'm not sulking." Athena mumbled petulantly, but her lips twitched.

"Nik was extremely different back then. He has changed so much… more than anyone of us." Rebekah added wistfully.

Athena faced her aunt and uncle fully and said, "Dad never talks about it. None of you does. Do you miss it?"

There was a long silence where Athena thought that she had crossed some kind of line and was about to apologise when Rebekah whispered, "I miss being human. I miss what we used to be. I miss that everything was so simple back then."

"But things weren't easy back then. We young and naïve. I remember how happy Niklaus used to be when he drew. I remember Mikael beating him because painting wasn't a man's work. It took him a couple of days to get back on his feet, but as soon as he did… he asked us to run with him. We declined, of course." Elijah stopped as he looked at her and said with a rueful smile, "Now I wish I would have. Mikael was never a good father… He was strict, especially towards Niklaus. Things are so obvious, but they weren't back then."

Athena gulped as she thought about his words. Her dad was abused by his own father, but why? Why would Mikael abuse one child out of five? There was something she was missing. Something important, but what? Hermione had tried to search about the originals, but had came up empty handed and Athena thought that maybe it was one of the reasons her friend hated her family. There was no logical explanation anywhere about the Mikaelson's, which had frustrated her to no end and Hermione was a bookworm, not willing to believe anything until she read it herself.

Athena looked at them and asked, "Would you tell me more?"

Elijah smiled at her. "Someday, but right now, there's someone who's waiting for you."

She asked with a frown, "Who?"

"Mr. Malfoy. I believe he's here to provide you with the potion." Elijah straightened his tie as he stood up and Athena followed grumbling.

Salvatore Boarding House

Damon was still cursing himself as he neared the boarding house, unsure about what had prompted him to say all those things to Athena. On one hand, he was glad that he had told her; on the other, not so much. He wasn't sure whatever left between them was salvageable or not, so he had decided to come clean. Now though, he had no idea if she would ever talk to him or not. He entered his house strolling at a casual pace, only to stop dead in his tracks as soon as his eyes landed on the man sitting on his recliner comfortably, like he owned the place.

"Enzo."

"Hello, Damon." Enzo raised his glass in greeting and smiled, but his eyes were burning fire.

"Oh, I love a good fire." Enzo said warming himself up in front of the fireplace before he turned towards Damon. "It's ironic, isn't it? You left me to burn alive in one!"

"Aren't we done with this? You tried to make me feel guilty. You're free now. Go on and live your life." Damon stated mockingly, shooing Enzo towards the door offhandedly.

Enzo looked at him with something akin to hurt, but it was gone within a second as he asked aghast, "That's what you have to say? After leaving me that hell hole to die all you have to say is 'go on and live your life'?"

Damon looked away from him and questioned, "What do you want me to say? I couldn't save you!"

"Did you even think about me after leaving or you decided to live your merry life to the fullest?" Enzo asked sarcastically staring right at Damon, who stayed quiet. "You were going to leave me even now, didn't you? If it hadn't been for the girl, you would have left me to burn along with the house." He gritted through clenched teeth.

"In case you didn't notice, I was missing an eye along with some other body parts!" Damon snarled back.

Enzo's eyes hardened and in a blurry move he pushed Damon back, who collided with the furthest wall before collapsing on the table below. The next thing he knew, he was being stabbed with a hot poker in his chest and couldn't stop the scream that ripped out of him.

"You were my only friend. The only person I ever trusted and you looked me in the eye and left me burning behind the bars as if you didn't even recognise me!"

"I'm not gonna fight you, Enzo. You can kill me if you want." Damon gasped between breaths as blood spilled from his mouth.

Why? Why did you do it?" Enzo screamed as he twisted the poker slowly, enjoying Damon's painful stuttering's.

"You wanna know if I thought about you after I escaped and the answer is no!" Enzo puled the poker out harshly and pointed it towards Damon's chest, directly over his heart, but Damon didn't stop and continued even as a tear fell out of his eyes. "And I sure as hell wasn't guilty about leaving you, because in order for me to save myself and leave you, I had to shut off my humanity, damnit! So, I flipped the switch and felt nothing. No remorse. No regret. No pain!"

"And now? What do you feel? Remorse? Regret? Pain? Even if I forgive you, Damon, it won't make you any less of a horrible person."

Enzo stood up from where he was kneeling beside Damon, teary eyes filled with fury and threw the poker aside before looking at Damon in the eyes and said, "You were the only person I trusted. The most important person in my life and you ruined me. That's exactly who you are. That's who you'll always be. The person who ruins everyone he crosses path with. A monster!"

Enzo smiled humourlessly before he left, leaving Damon on the floor, empty eyes staring at nothing.

Full Moon

Mystic Falls

Tyler groaned as he blinked his eyes open. He was lying in the muddy ground somewhere in a forest. It had only been a couple of days and no one knew he was back in town yet. He remembered talking to Dean, a fellow werewolf after they had come back together from the Appalachians, and then nothing. He craned his neck a bit and the pain clearly indicated that someone had snapped it.

"Tyler!" someone hissed and he jerked awake. His head snapped towards the voice and frowned when he saw Bonnie standing next to him. The look of panic on her face was enough to set him on edge. "Bonnie? What…?" he asked hurriedly as he looked around, noticing the place for the first time and he panicked. He knew this place. Had been familiar with it not long ago.

She ignored his mumbling and told him panicked, "We don't have time. We have to find a way to get out of here."

His head snapped towards the gate when he heard an all too familiar voice. "Hello, mate." His eyes landed on the original hybrid leaning beside the door, smirking at him before turning towards Bonnie and asked, "Are you ready, love?"

Bonnie glared at him and snapped, "I told you there's no spell for this! And even if there was, I wouldn't do it."

"I wouldn't be so sure, darling. I know you have the spell… and just to motivate you a bit… I have a surprise for you." He told her cheerily as he opened his phone and showed them a video. Elena was slumped and tied on a chair, eyes blinking sleepily before glaring at someone, but her head snapped towards the phone and her eyes widened.

"Bonnie?" she whispered croakily.

"Elena!" Bonnie sighed her best friend's name as her eyes widened before turning towards the original hybrid and snapped angrily, "What are you doing to her?"

"Just a little insurance. Nothing you need to worry about." He smirked.

"What do you want?" Bonnie growled through gritted teeth.

"Nothing more than a spell, love. We don't need to go over it again, do we? About how our precious Elena will die if you tried something? And I promise, I'll let you and the doppelgänger go unharmed." Klaus drawled, smiling and the other two frowned.

"What about Tyler?" Even though she glared, but there was barely hidden alarm behind her words.

"He and I need to have a little chat once you're done with the spell." He said before adding thoughtfully, "Or maybe tomorrow."

"He could die if I use him for the spell!" Bonnie told him desperately with something akin to terror as she looked between the two hybrids.

Klaus looked at her and said nonchalantly, "Don't worry, I won't let him die until we are done."

"Why are you doing this?" Tyler snarled, his anger seeping through, trying to figure out what exactly was happening.

Klaus arched an eyebrow and said, "You don't think that I wouldn't know where you've been all this time? Or with whom? In the Appalachians to break the sire bond. There, you met a pack of werewolves, among them was a girl. Gorgeous and with the same animal instincts as yours. Emotions ran high, and ambitions ran low. Sexual tension became something much more real… how long had it been? A month? More? You broke up with Caroline in order to appease your new girl, not even a week ago… on a phone, mate?" He tutted with something akin to disappointment, enjoying how Tyler's eyes widened with horror and Bonnie's with disgust.

Tyler's lip curled up in a snarl and he jumped at the original without much thought, but Klaus was faster. It didn't take him long to pin Tyler to the ground by his neck as he whispered, "Now, mate, we don't want anything unfortunate to happen to mommy, now. Do we?"

He grinned when he saw the horror and dread that filled Tyler's eyes and the fight vanishing before he turned towards the witch and said, "You should start preparing for the spell. We don't have much time left."

Bonnie closed her eyes tiredly as she clutched her grams grimoire to herself, while Tyler was glaring at the gate which had been locked behind Klaus.

Somewhere In The Woods

Agitated! That was the perfect word to describe how Athena was feeling right now as she walked deeper in the woods, trying to search for the cellar Caroline had told her about. She had bumped into the girl when she had gone to the Grill to grab a bite yesterday. That was another thing. Athena had been wolfing down the food ever since her transformation, like the wolf she apparently was now. Anyway, Caroline had been extremely hyper and too enthusiastic for Athena's mood. The girl seemed nice as she not only tried to talk to Athena like they had been friends forever, but she tried to give her tips because she had seen her friend transforming in front of her own eye. She appreciated the fact that Caroline was being cordial instead of glaring daggers or plotting Athena's murder like her friend Elena.

Of course, Stefan had told her everything about his ex-girlfriend and her connection to Katherine, and the fact that she was a doppelgänger, who her dad used to break his curse. As much as she was fascinated with everything, she felt really sorry for Elena and could understand more why she hated Athena and her existence.

Athena looked around, trying to locate the old estate which would lead her to the underground cellar. When she had asked, Caroline had told her that as far as she knew, there was no other wolf in town and the place could be safe for her first transformation. She seemed genuine, so Athena decided to forget that Caroline tried to compel her the first time they met and, in all honesty, there wasn't a vampire who hadn't tried apart from Elijah perhaps. Athena was even more thankful because she didn't want anyone to see her like that, helpless and in pain. Everyone was anxious enough and she didn't want to trouble them even more, which was why she decided to be alone tonight.

But of course, nothing could go as easily as she wished because she saw two people as soon as she entered the cellar. Tyler was pacing, while Bonnie was reading what seemed like a tome. She gaped at them confused, not understanding why Bonnie and Tyler were locked here for, but was even more baffled at the hostility thrown her way. She hadn't seen Tyler in months. What had she done now?

"Uh…?" she was just searching for words to ask them all of this when she felt a gust of wind and heard her father's voice. "Sweetheart, what are you doing here?" He was smiling at her as he asked in a silky drawl.

She narrowed her eyes at him at the expressions on his face and the tone, which she was becoming accustomed to. And knowing him, it was something he did often, especially when he wanted to appear faultless. "What're you doing?" she asked suspiciously, not missing the look that passed between Bonnie and Tyler.

"Just a little spell they're helping me with." He told her pleasantly.

"If by helping you mean kidnapping and locking us in here, then sure we're helping!" Tyler practically growled as his eyes flashed before turning towards Athena. "And you! We know this is all your fault, so you can drop the façade!"

Athena's eyes widened, while Klaus's expressions darkened as he took a threatening step between Tyler and Athena. "Now, mate. We don't want to forget who you're talking to, do we?" His voice was pleasant, but it sent chills down Athena's spine. She had no idea what was going on, but by the dark look on Bonnie's face, it didn't seem good.

"Okay." She said loudly as she moved forward, knowing that if she didn't interfere, things were going to escalate soon. "What exactly is happening here?"

Klaus glared at Tyler, who glared right back. Bonnie stared at her for a long time before she said, "He has Elena."

"What? Why?" Athena asked truly perplexed, even though she should have gotten used to it by now, but somehow it still left her stunned, what her life had come to!

Bonnie stared right at Athena and said, "He wants me to do a spell."

"A spell? For what?" Athena asked confused before she looked at Klaus, who was glaring at the witch with his jaw clenched and whispered, "I could've done it."

Tyler snorted, but it was Bonnie who spoke, ignoring the fury radiating in waves from the original hybrid. He wants me to transfer your curse to Tyler."

"Wait… What?!" Athena gaped, truly baffled. "That-that's impossible! Lycanthropy cannot be transferred from one to another!"

Bonnie raised her chin defiantly at Klaus and stated, "It is, but the pain of transformation isn't. Its black magic and could kill the werewolf being used. Elena is just leverage."

"Oh! Don't be overly dramatic! He's a hybrid and cannot die! A little bit of pain won't hurt. He's accustomed to it." Klaus remarked lazily.

Athena looked from Bonnie to Klaus speechless, unable to process the information. It didn't take her long to summarise that he was blackmailing someone to do black magic because of her. He didn't want to see her in pain and transforming into a wolf is the worst kind of agony one could go through. Ever since she had known the vampires, she realised that they all had one thing in common – vampires kill anyone and everyone without remorse if it meant saving someone they cared about. They didn't care about the consequences if it meant saving their loved ones. Damon did that. And now, her dad was doing the exact same thing, ignoring the fact that to save one life, they were taking the other. Maybe it was how vampires worked, just like every human did by being selfish and greedy. It was ingrained in them and couldn't be changed and with a jolt she realised that the vampire traits cannot be changed as well, no matter how much anyone tried.

Yes, kidnapping and blackmailing someone wasn't ethical, but he was doing it for her and her heart swelled with love for him despite the fact that she disapproved of his ways. Maybe others would frown upon her, but for Athena this act showed how much he loved her. As she looked at him, she didn't see someone who was about to kill someone, but she saw a man who cared enough to go to such lengths for her. That's what parents did, didn't they? Sure, his ways were a bit… unorthodox, but all she saw in him was a father she had always wanted.

Athena blinked and saw him frowning at her worriedly and almost smiled. He looked ready for a fight, with her or with the other two, she didn't know. She focused on him, ignoring the others as she stared into his eyes and whispered, "Dad. You don't need to worry about me. I can take care of myself. You should let them go. And I'm not alone, am I? You'll be there with me? I trust you."

Klaus opened his mouth only to snap it shut. There was something in her eyes, an unnamed emotion that willed him to believe her, no matter how much he wanted to disagree. He stayed quiet, not wanting to terrify her because all his instincts were willing him to kill someone, preferably the hybrid and the witch.

"I can handle it. Trust me?" Athena asked softly when she saw a vein tickling with anger in his forehead.

His eyes slid to hers. And there it was again, an emotion he had only seen in Rebekah's eye until now and he found himself speaking without his consent. "Witch! You can leave and Elena would be home soon." He stated emotionlessly.

"What? NO!" Bonnie and Tyler gasped together

"I'm not leaving without Tyler!" Bonnie spoke firmly, hands twitching on her sides as if to strike.

"He's not leaving until I get what I want, love." Klaus told Bonnie with an arched eyebrow before turning to Tyler. "Just a warning… this place is filled with my hybrids. Make a move against me… and they'll feel obligated to retaliate." Klaus whispered and grinned like a Cheshire cat before adding just as softly, "…and you have no means to warn your mother."

All their eyes widened with horror at the threat.

"Stay away from my mother! She has nothing to do with this!" Tyler bellowed, ready to run and check his mom. The only thing that stopped him was the knowledge that one wrong move could endanger his mother.

"You'd be surprised how beautifully a threat can work, pal." Klaus stared at him intimidatingly and then added with a smirk, "I want to know everything you've been planning with the wolves and your mother will live to see another day."

Bonnie was still glaring at Klaus, uncertain about leaving Tyler, but if she used her magic against Klaus, surely his daughter would fight? And then there was no saying what he would do with Elena or Mrs. Lockwood.

She told Klaus menacingly, "You won't harm him."

Klaus replied with a raised eyebrow, "You are in no position to make demands, but I assure you, he'll be alive by the time we're done."

Bonnie shared a look with Tyler, who was glaring at Klaus and left. Klaus looked at Athena, who's gaze was fixed at the wolf indecisively and he rolled his eyes before uttering, "Now you… You're coming with me." He dragged Athena with him, not before leaving his hybrids behind.

"Were you really going to kill his mother?" Athena asked as he pulled her along deeper into the woods.

"It doesn't concern you." He snapped before adding with a sigh, "I'm going to do everything I can to make sure that our family is safe."

Athena wanted to question him further, but she chose to stay quiet, for now. And also, because she felt an itch under her skin which she was quite certain due to the moon that was rising steadily.

"Come on! We've wasted enough time." Klaus rushed, thankful that she had decided not to be adamant and test his control.

"Wha-Where are we going?" Athena asked confused. Where was he taking her? There wasn't enough time to go back and lock her, but wouldn't it be better? Everyone she knew was a vampire and she didn't want to risk any of their safety.

He stopped when they were directly under the full moon. 'There weren't enough trees to hide her from the moon now', Athena shivered at the thought. She knew was stupid, but looking at the moon now made her heartbeat increase tenfold and for a second, she thought that she was going to pass out. Out here, it seemed more real as she looked at the moon directly above her. How could something be so beautiful, yet so horrifying at the same time?

She was bought out of her musings when she heard a voice. "The transformation… It gets worse inside. You should be out here in the moonlight." Klaus told her gently before pulling something out from his pocket. He gave it to her and ordered, "Here. Finish this." Her eyes widened when she saw what it was! The third and last vial of the potion Draco had left and she had forgotten to drink due to her nervousness. She nodded her thanks before swallowing the rancid potion down in a go.

The vial fell from her hand as she felt the bone in her wrist breaking with a sickening crunch.

"Its starting." Klaus whispered to himself, focused entirely on her.

"Ow! Ow! Ahhh!" She gasped with pain as fell on the ground as the bone in her ankle broke.

"Now, listen to me very carefully. Its going to hurt… probably more than anything you have ever felt, but I need you to focus only on me and my voice." He whispered to her softly as he kneeled in front of her.

Beads of sweat rolled down her forehead as the throbbing in her guts increased. Athena felt her body squeezing her organs as hard as they could. There was nothing but pain and she struggled to breathe as her eyes filled with tears. She was aware of her bones snapping as they rearranged themselves. She heard a strangled scream, not realizing that it was her until she heard a familiar voice. A voice she knew meant safety.

"Concentrate on every breath you take!" Klaus repeated when she looked up at him and murmured pitifully, "Dad…"

He heard the bones in her body breaking as he saw her shuddering for breath.

"Focus, Athena! Transforming the first time take hours…"

"Hours?!" Athena gasped horrified as her glowing yellow eyes snapped to his, features contorted with pain.

"…if you fight it!" he completed. Their eyes stayed connected and she nodded visibly before another bone broke and she closed her eyes.

Klaus caressed her head slowly, fingers moving through her hair and whispered, "When you're done, run anywhere you want… fly like the bird you desire to be. I'll take care of the rest."

They didn't know how long it took, but Athena screamed at the top of her lungs as her eyes snapped towards the moon. The next thing Klaus knew, there was a pure white wolf standing in place of Athena, her clothes lying in tatters around her.

He stared at the wolf, who stared right back for some time before asking curiously, "Do you understand me?"

The wolf strolled closer and nudged him on the shoulder with its head before looking back into his eyes.

"Your mother would be so proud of you… just like I am." Klaus whispered to her as he stood up from where he had been kneeling on the ground and smiled when the wolf growled at him softly before darting away.

Athena didn't know where she was going, but all she knew was that it was freeing like it had never been. Even though she was caged inside a wolf's body, but now that she wasn't in pain anymore, she felt relaxed like she hadn't since ever. Sprinting through the forest felt like a second nature to her and she had no idea how long she ran.

She ran like a free bird, darting around without a single thought in a mind until she skidded to a halt, only then realising that she was standing in front of the boarding house. Her eyes landed on Damon, who was sitting on the porch, staring at night sky and without thinking she took a step towards him. She must've made some kind of noise because his head snapped towards where she was and stiffened visibly, staring right at her.

The wolf growled at him as it moved closer before stopping a few feet away. "What the hell?" he whispered eyes on the wolf when something occurred to him. "Athena?!" Damon muttered curiously when the white wolf made no move to attack him.

There was something familiar in the way those yellow eyes were staring at him and he all but yelped when it jumped right in front of him and gave his face a lick, all the way from his chin to his forehead.

"Oh my God!" Caroline gasped as soon as she saw the wolf practically on top of Damon; while Stefan, Stefan acted instinctively… pushing the wolf as far away from his brother as possible.

They heard a crunch as the wolf collided with a tree and focused on his brother, checking for any signs of a werewolf bite frantically. Damon on the other hand was gaping until he heard a whine and snapped at his brother, "I think that's Athena."

Stefan's eyes widened along with Caroline's, but Damon didn't wait for them and blurred near the wolf, who was lying on the ground.

"Athena? Is… Is that you?" he asked perplexed.

The wolf looked right in his eyes and nodded before it went back to licking its leg.

"I forgot. She took a potion which helps a werewolf in keeping their mind even when they are in their wolf form." Stefan winced as Damon's head snapped towards him incredulously. "Athena, I am so sorry." He muttered to the wolf who huffed at him before turning her head away.

"Are you hurt?" Caroline asked somewhat afraid.

The wolf growled at her softly before standing up slowly and limped towards the house. The three vampires were so flummoxed, that it took them a couple of seconds to run inside, only to find the wolf curled-up in a ball on the couch in front of the fire, liking whiskey from the glass lying on the side table, even though it was almost empty.

"That's definitely Athena." Stefan snorted and once again, Damon was filled with the irrational jealously that his brother knew more about the girl he loved.

It took them some time, but the vampires sat in front of her flummoxed, busy gawking at the wolf sleeping comfortably in their living room. By the morning, Damon was dozing on the couch while Athena was sprawled half on him, covered with a quilt, head pillowed on his thigh, drooling. Stefan didn't think for a second before snapping their picture… for blackmail of course. It was going to be a hell lot embarrassing once they woke up and he was sure Athena would kill him even before Damon even had a chance, but it was worth it. So, he smirked before leaving.

AN: Google is a wonderful thing. It's safe to say that the particular part was somewhat inspired from Hope's transformation. It helped me in understanding about how Klaus behaved with his daughter, the first time she's transformed.

Once again, I have increased the pace of this story or it will never be finished. It has 15 something chapters more, with or without the sequel, which is still undecided. If I end up writing it, that one has 15 to 20 chapters.

Thank you to those who're still with me on this story and sorry because I was unable to reply this time. I will do that soon & Thank You to those who took their time to write a review. Hope you liked this one. Positive criticism is always welcome

Have a nice day everyone. 😊
