Elijah' s P.O.V
After the copious discussion I was asked to accompany the crowd to their house.
As soon as we entered the mansion, I saw a young girl with golden curls running straight into Stefan's arms. Cocking head back she yelled out,"Elena! Bonnie they are here!"
Soon two pair of footsteps rushed downstairs and I was shocked to see another doppelganger running downstairs. She halted for second before smiling in relief.
Her feet speed up and she jumped into Damon Salvatore's arms who in return embraced her tightly. Young love I muttered under my breath. Pure, enthusiastic and foolish.
My thoughts were interrupted with Damon's voice. "Hey, I am okay." He assured her while rocking her in his arms.
She lifted her face from his neck and touched their foreheads. "I was so worried about you."
This intimate gesture between two lovers compelled me to glance at Katrina, but I everted my eyes again.
While everyone was busy greeting their Loved ones, the elder witch Sheila mentioned me to follow her into parlour and offered me a seat.
"I assume everyone was prepared for worse when you all came to sought me?" I asked her, starting the conversations.
She glanced at the embracing couples with smile on her face. "They all are aware of upcoming danger and their happiness is on stake so they cherished these small victories."
I nodded my head. After hearing Stefan's version of future I can see they will do anything for their survival.
After few minutes the group joined us and I saw them sending Katherine away upstairs.
Stefan and Damon both sat on opposite couch with their respective ladies while a young girl who I assume favours Miss Sheila immensely sat with her.
"This is my granddaughter Bonnie and these girls are her friends Elena and Caroline."
All three girls gave me tentative smiles while she continued with introduction.
"That's Mr Alaric Saltzman, this is my distant niece Lucy Bennett and this is Nadia Petrova she is Katherine daughter."
I was shocked to hear that but could rectify the resemblance. "Katrina's daughter? I thought Nicklaus killed her entire family?"
She gave me a bitter smile. "Yeah he did but luckily my grandfather sent me away the moment I was born. I guess he did me favour without even knowing it."
She gave a sarcastic laugh and rest of us fidgeted uncomfortably.
"So what deal you want to proposed to me." I asked, not looking at anyone particular.
"First we need your word that you will help us until we all are safe." Stefan Salvatore demanded.
I stared at everyone and can see that they all were waiting nervously for my answer.
"You have my word I will help you until you all are safe." I assured them and they all took a breath in relief.
"Now what is this deal. Do you have a way to prevent my brother's plans."
It was Damon Salvatore who smirked at me as he answered . "On the contrary we are going to help your brother to get rid of his curse."
I wasn't excepting much but those words broke my composure as I screamed in anger. What!"

Stefan's P.O.V
His reaction was excepted, still to see his composure break like that is quite surprising.
"Please will you listen to us before you jump on any conclusion." I tried to reason with him.
He took deep calming breath before settling down on couch again. "You better have valid explanation for this insanity that you people are planning."
So I start telling him about our plan and the more I talked more his expression change from anger to disbelief and finally doubt when I finished telling him every detail of our plan.
He was quite for a while as he processed everything , finally he looked squarely at Sheila. "Are you sure witches agreed to this?"
She sighed and I know she will tell him truth. "I won't lie but our spirits still not supporting us completely."
Elijah was about to say something but she cut him off. "Still as elder of my coven I will do everything in my power to see this plan comes through, After all survival of my love one and the entire town depends on it."
Elijah looked at her incredulously. "So to save bunch of few people and this small town you people are going to unleash a monster in this world?
Damon and I stared at each other. Sibling rivalry, over old wounds never gets healed and yet these same siblings kill for each other without second thought.
I then decided to say very thing that can convince him on our side. 'That's where you and your siblings came in. After all said and done we will tell you the most important truth about your future and trust me I witnessed it with my own eyes not only your strong bond but how that bond makes Klaus a better man."
He seemed speechless as the weight of my truth settled in he gradually raises up. "I need some time to think about your proposition. I will come tomorrow with my decision."
With that he was gone leaving us in uncertainty. "That man needs to loosen up. Talk about stiff and all that man puts you in shame in that department." Damon told me teasingly.
I rolled my eyes at him and saw Elena sighing. "I don't know? I like how proper and sophisticated he is."
Damon stared at her in disbelief while I heard Caroline. "Well I think Damon is right that guy is too stiff for my taste, now that Klaus guy seems interesting."
It was my turn to stare at my girlfriend but then saw mischievous smile on her face and I realized the games she is trying to play.
"Well their sister is totally another league. I wish I can find words to explain her."
I said riling her perfect feathers and it worked because she got angry and stormed away.
Damon winked at me as I went after my girlfriend.
I found her angry in our room packing her bags. "You! You did that on purpose!"
I tried to contain my composure which soon broke and I laughed my heart out. "Well you started it with Klaus being interesting." I reminded her as I stepped closer and locked our door.
She huffed and sat on our bed. "That's different! Beside there is no need for you to praise how she is so beautiful to be in different league."
That did it I started laughing once again. "I was referring to how crazy she is." I sat beside her and wrapped my arms around her and kissed her cheeks. "Besides I prefer the blonde in my arms more than any other girl on this planet."
That brought a smile on her beautiful face.
She wrapped her arms around me. "I am crazy too you know? I am crazy in love for you."
My heart flipped while I touched her forehead with mine. "I love you too Caroline."
Her smile was breathtakingly beautiful and I couldn't help but to kiss her. Our kisses escalade soon while our hands reached out to get rid of our clothing.
I flipped her until she was laying underneath me. "I am crazy about you too." She moaned at my declaration before arching her body into me. "Show me."
It was all the permission I needed as I slipped in her wet warmth. Her walls deliciously clenching my length making us both moan our names.
I started gently moving within her while kissing her sweet lips.
"Stefan!" she moaned loudly as I pulled her legs to wrap around my waist bringing her more closer to me as our thrust increases. "That's it baby hold me tight!"
I kissed her neck and beautiful breast before taking one rosy bud inside my mouth while sucking hard on it.
"Uhh!" She moaned as I swirl my toung on her rosy peak.
We were close to our climax so I flipped us around making her straddle me. She stared at me lovingly for second before taking my lips in a passionate kiss.
I helped her move on my length and her golden hair bouncing with our movement making them look like Sun rays.
Her skin was glistening with sweat due to our lovemaking but still she looked the most beautiful I ever saw.
Finally she arched her beautiful body as she climaxed in my arms taking me with her.
We both laid in each others arms, breathing in our scents when she lifted her face. " I love make-up sex." She told me with smile on her face.
"We didn't fight?" I reminded her but she shook her head. "We were jealous so it's the same thing and fitting for make up sex."
She told me as if that was most obvious thing ever and I couldn't help but smile at her while pulling her back in my arms so she can lay her head on my chest.
"You are right Care, make-up sex are really best."
And to see her beaming in smile is best part of this crazy day.

Elijah's P.O.V
It was hard decision , specially when their success depends on witch spirits and my brother. "These people are doomed." I sighed and entered the boarding house again.
I was expecting to see it as crowded as yesterday but only saw Katrina sitting on chair with a drink in her hands.
"Where is everyone?" I asked her and she looked as uncomfortable as me."They had been waiting all day for you . So finally stress took over and they left for Grill, you can find them their."
The way she said it I knew she wants me to leave but I walked closer instead.
"So they trust you enough to let you stay alone in the house?" I asked her as I took a seat on opposite chair.
She scoffed and finished her drink. "They had spell around this house and besides they trust my daughter more than me."
She went to refill her glass and offered me same. "You are not afraid of me?" I asked as I accepted the drink.
"I am terrified off you and your family Elijah. Been afraid for five centuries but I know you can't harm me here unless you want to get on bad side of these people."
She lifted her glass at me and I asked another question. "Why are you helping these people? "
She was quite for a while and then. "At first it was because they offer me my freedom from Klaus and my survival but now I am doing this so I can have my daughter back, so I can have second chance to be her mother she deserves."
I sighed before standing up and pacing in front of fire. "You could have, had that chance five hundred years ago yet you betrayed me?"
I was expecting for her to feel remorse but instead She stood up in anger and threw her glass away. "Betray you! What about you oh honourable Elijah!" she spat my name in anger.
"You were in love with me and yet you were going to lead me to sacrifice for your monster brother! Sorry but in this story who betrayed who?"
She asked , her voice was laced with venom. "I told you about elixir didn't I but you..." She start laughing hard.
"Right after you told me that I will be drained of blood I have to place my hope in your elixir ! Forgive me but that didn't gave me any hope."
At this point we both were fuming. "You should have trusted me Katrina and besides don't be all moral you toed with mine and Trevor's feelings while hoping to be Nicklaus's queen."
She seems on verge of screaming which she did. "I was eighteen!" she roared as angry tears came on her face.
"I was eighteen Elijah! Who's daughter was snatched from her arms! Who was banished from not just her family but her home her country and no matter what I deserved for my sins at that time, I never deserve to be presented as a sacrificial lamb for slaughter!"
I was unable to say anything as her words hit me with full force.
"So you see! you taught me important lesson never to trust anyone, never to love because these things are for week and Katrina Petrova was week but Katherine Pierce she survives, she always survive and I will do anything for survival of me and my daughter, even if I have to help these people then I will do it."
She came closer and looked straight in my eyes. "So never say I betrayed you and always remember I became Katherine Pierce because of your betrayal."
With these words she left me as I ponder how our actions ruined innocent lives forever.
