Katherine seems to have a very elegant taste in houses. She mused as she walked across the foyer to the large living room, complete with a fireplace in the center of the wall, white marble finishes complimented the dark oak columns next to it, very nicely. The rest of the house was as expansive and expensive as any other home she'd been in the last week. She still wanted to see the Mikealson's home, but that would have to wait for now.
She heard Katherine struggling against the bonds tying her to her chair. It was easier than she'd anticipated to catch the vampire off guard, seeing that Elijah wasn't the kind to leave those precious to him unguarded, but for now she was revelling in the small victory. She turned towards Katherine, and was met with a raging glare. How much she looked like Tatia, goodness, the likeness was uncanny.
"It's no use you know, fighting against those chains. They were made to hold monsters like us."
"What do you want with me?" She smirked at the girl sitting before her. Her porcelain skin, not marred by any weapon she'd come to face in her life. The sun streaming through the window, was like watching an angel struggle for freedom from the harsh rays as it fell on her cheek, burning away the flesh as the young vampire let out a piercing shriek.
After closing the curtain for the seventh time that half hour, she walked over to the cursing vampire with a glass in her hand. Offering it to her, with a smile.
"Water?" Katherine spat at her, small drops of it landing on her cheek, and she let out a ferocius growl. Pulling her arm back, ready to let go and wipe the smug little smile on that face, clean off, she stopped when another growl echoed in the room, and she could feel her lungs contract with cold fear.
"That is enough Anthea." She smirked, hiding her fear as best she could, before turning to face him.
"Hello Elijah." Katherine sputtered behind her, causing Anthea to roll her eyes in annoyance.
"You know her?" A grin, wide enough to stretch from ear to ear, appeared on Anthea's face as she turned towards Katherine. Elijah cut her off before she could reply.
"She is an old friend of Niklaus." Anthea turned to stare at Elijah in disbelief, he met her gaze with an icy glare before continuing. "You can leave now, Anthea. I will inform my brother that you are back in town." She didn't try to mask the hurt as each of his words cut deep into her side, leaving a gushing wound behind.
Anthea left without another glance in either of their direction, as Elijah moved to untie Katherine from her bonds, and console her, as he held her against his chest.
