Chapter 5
I wake up felling I little pain in my head, than I see Nik sleeping next to me and I remember what happen yesterday and that the pain was probably from all the crying.
"You are awake." He says and I turn to him.
"I thought you still sleeping." I say to him and he smiles.
"No, I was waiting for you to wake up. How are you?"
"Better, I think. Thank you for staying."
"You are welcomed, do you still need me?"
"No, you can go, I think I am just going to stay here for the day, I don't really know." He kisses me temple and then gets up.
"If you need something, call me." He says with a smile and then disappears and I start to remember all that happened. I came back to Mystic Falls to help a friend of Klaus's …girl he fancies or something. After I meet Bekah again, spend a day with her, to only find out no other than Elijah, the man who will forever have my heart. Nice couple of days.
Rebekah and Kol were both in the living room when I hear Klaus arrived.
"Good morning." Kol says and I could imagine him with a smirk. "Did you have a good night?"
Klaus did not reply and I hear Rebekah taking a deep breath. "How is she?" She asks and I froze in place, there is only one person for who my brother would spend an entire night with without any plan, just genuine time and that person is Elizabella.
"I have seen her better but I have seen her way worst." He says and I feel like someone stab me because I know why she is like that, because of me.
"Do you think it is a good thing if I pass by the Salvatore's?" I hear my sister ask.
"I don't think so; she needs to thing, maybe latter. I am going to my room."
I finally arrive downstairs where I see Caroline, Elena and Bonnie talking.
"Good morning girls." I say and they both return with a 'hi'. "So where are your friends?"
"Damon is at the bar with Alaric and I think Stefan went out." Elena says. "Are you ok?" She asks me with concern and I nod a yes
"We saw Klaus living." Caroline says not believing me, I just take a deep breath. "I know you don't know us for a long time but you can tell us."
"She is right." Elena says. "Besides we are family, right?" Elena asks not waiting to put me in an uncomfortable zone little she knows this is one of my favorite subjects so I sit in front of the 3 girls.
"What would you like to know about our family?" I ask her.
"There is more." She asks surprised.
"Yes there is more." I say to her and I can see the surprise in her voice and I see Stefan, Jeremy, Matt, Alaric and Damon coming in.
"So what are you girls talking about?" Damon asks sitting next to Elena. Stefan sits next to Caroline. Matt and Jeremy in other couch as Alaric sits next to me.
"We were talking about the Pretova family." I say with a smile and they all look confuse.
"There is more, besides me, Katherine and Valeria." Elena says happily and I can't help but smile at her excitement.
"Really?" Stefan asks me.
"Yes. If you want you can stay for the story." I say to them and they all look at me wanting to know it. "As you know Tatia, my sister, Elena's doppelganger had a child."
"Yes, before she was married I believe." Elena says.
"Yes, you are right. Tatia was 4 years younger than me so when she had her child she was 16, we never knew who the father was, my sister was."
"A Slut." I hear a familiar face appearing in back of the couch where the others are and I can see a shocked Jeremy looking at her.
"You can see ghosts." I say to him and he nods.
"Wait there is someone in here?" Caroline asks and Tatia smirks.
"Yes, my dear sister."
"You are having story time, I had to come. Hi Jeremy."
"Hi." He says to her strangely.
"Ignore her." I say to him.
"Ouch, that hurt sister." She says mocking me.
"Are you really staying?"
"Of course."
I take a deep breath and close my eyes allowing her to appear physically in front of us and I hear a lot of people gasp.
"How did you?" Jeremy asks me shocked.
"One of my powers, I can make ghost appear, but she isn't more than that."
"Weren't you telling story, my story?" She says and I roll my eyes.
"Sit and don't make a scene." I say to her and she sits and a chair. "Where was I going? Oh right, my sister's child." I say looking at her. "Want to tell?"
She rolls her eyes and starts to speak. "Like my sister said, I had a child, a boy, named Thomas, I did take care of him." She says and I start to cough. "My sister took care of him." She says looking at me. "You all already know the rest. Keep going Isa." She says to me and I roll my eyes.
"Well, after the immorality spell was created, Thomas and my parents had already left town and my nephew was just 4 or 5."
"Wait, you were?" Elena asks me.
"I was 24, it was two years after Elijah and I got married. Like I was saying, after that I lost contact with my family and I thought I would never see them again."
"But you did." Bonnie says.
"Elijah, Klaus, Rebekah had just moved to London."
*Flashback 1489*
"This is a truly beautiful place Elijah." I say to me husband who smiles at me.
"This city it's called London, my Bella." He says to me kissing my cheek.
"I love the house, it so beautiful." I say looking at the back garden where there was a small lake.
"I can see the amazing parties we can have in here." Rebekah says.
"But it was just 1492, 3 years later, when I found it."
"When you meet Katherine." Elena concludes.
*Flashback 1492*
"Rebekah the party is beautiful." I say to the girl who I considerate a sister as we both look around at all the nobles in our ball room.
"It is, we should go found my brothers." She says and we talk until I find then talking to some girl. I put my arm around my husband and I see the face making froze.
"I'm Katerina Petrova, my Lady." She says to me with a smile.
"I'm… Valeria Mikaelson." I say to her after recovering my senses.
"You didn't know." Stefan asks.
"That year I found that I only knew half of the story. I knew about the curse put on Klaus, and who my sister was used was in the sacrifice but I did not know about the Petrova curse."
"They never told you?"
"They told me after the night. I was in shocked for moments I tough she was my sister."
"So what happen?" Caroline asks and I can see Elena giving her a look to be in silence. "Sorry."
"It's ok. That time I also find out that keeping Katerina for me wasn't the only secret. She and Elijah were having an affair." I say looking at the floor. "I found it on the night of the sacrifice. I was so angry, even Klaus knew. Rebekah was, like me, the only one knew it was happening."
"So what did you do?" Damon asks.
"She helped Katerina escape." I hear a familiar voice and I smile.
"Rose." I say as the vampire also appears in front of me and gets close to Damon who smiles at her.
"You let two gates open, I couldn't lose the opportunity." She says and I smile.
"So you let Katherine escape, how?" Stefan asks.
"I told her the truth."
*Flashback 1492*
"I can't believe it. Who do you even know about it?" She asks me scared.
"Because before I was Valeria Mikealson, I was Valeria Petrova."
"You are from my family?" She asks me surprised.
"Yes." I say and I explain all to her. "I am so sorry for what I did." She says but I stop her.
"I don't care about that now. You can run now, but I don't promise you will escape. I can't help for now one."
"Why?"
"Because I am leaving."
"To where?"
"I don't know."
"That night she told me about her child, her daughter and I promise to keep her safe. So a week later I was on a boat to Bulgaria."
"Just like Klaus." Elena says and I nod. "But he didn't kill her daughter."
"No, she was a poor girl in an orphanage."
"You adopted her." Alaric says surprise.
"I did and after that I travel to Italy. Where our family has lived for 500 years." I say to Elena.
"But what about me?" She asks me.
"You grand, grandparents came to America and you can see the rest."
"Did you know about me?"
"No. When your grandmother came to America she was young and I lost contact with her. Actually Rose told me this summer but it already too late." I say to her giving her a sad smile and looking at Rose.
"But what about the line that leaves in Italy?" Elena asks and I take a deep breath.
"Your grandmother had a sister and has a brother."
"As?"
"Yes, José, he is 62. He has a daughter Lilly, who is 36 and has a kid. Her other sister passed away 3 years ago, she gave birth to two daughter. Anne, who also had a daughter, a few years older than you and Sara, who also has a son, this one younger than you."
"Wow." Elena says with a happy face.
"That is not all." Tatia says and I look at her angry. "What? It's true."
"A couple of years after I went to Italy I travel back to Mystic Falls, where I start to study my own family."
"Your own family?" Elena asks.
"When Esther turned her sons, I was 2 or 3 months pregnant."
"What?" I familiar voice says and I turn to see Elijah looking at me with his eyes open in state of shock.
