Exam time will soon be upon us. I don't know when I'll be updating -if I'll be updating at all- as I prep for exams but I will be continuing this story A.S.A.P. Thanks for your understanding & a billion times good luck for anyone with upcoming finals/exams!


"Oh! She's cute," Rebekah enters Nicklaus' room as he lays an unconscious form onto his bed, dark mahogany hair drifting across his sheets.

"She fought the vampires at Marcel's little party," he chuckled, " blew one straight across to the other side of the room."

"Little girl's got power," Rebekah comments in approval.

"She doesn't look too young, two or three years younger than us when we were changed at the latest," Klaus said.

Rebekah sighs, "They age slower these days Klaus. I'd say she's seventeen -what are you doing?"

Klaus reaches over into the girl's thin jacket and pulls out a sleek red wallet, flipping it open, he rummages around chuckling, "ID says Lex Kent. My guess would be she's on the run. Cash only, fake driver's license..."

"Our she's out partying and doesn't want her parents to know," Rebekah suggested, "Either way, she's not our concern or, have you forgotten about Marcel's ban on werewolves? We already have a hard time keeping mommy-dearest in the house -we don't need another."

"She's different, there's something about her," Klaus murmured.

"She's stupid. Coming to New Orleans of all places to party. She was practically asking f-"Rebekah started.

"-Unless it's some secret werewolf power to incapacitate a vampire with their scream, I'd say not." Klaus interrupted.

Rebekah fell silent for a moment, "Does Marcel and his goons know?"

Klaus looked back at the sleep girl. Her heart began to beat slowly and steadily, her adrenalin chalked body finally calming down to rest, "I don't think so. If they did, Marcel would be raiding this house as we speak. It happened fast enough for most beings not to notice. Their pride made up for what they couldn't believe."

"You're not thinking of turning her are you?" Rebekah asked warily.

"I've thought about it," Klaus admitted, "but for the time being, she could be more useful to us like this. I don't want to risk deactivating her witch side. Marcel will have his little Davina and we'll have ours."

Then, Haley carefully peered into the room, "I heard another werewolf joined our party."
