Chapter 12

"I used to look up at you Marcel, you where strong, decisive, a man with convictions, but now you are nothing but a blind follower, how could you stand by and let the werewolves walk freely!" Thierry said loudly.

They were in Rosseau's, a favorite hang-out of the vampires. They were in the back, to give them more privacy. After all human habituated the bar too, while they considered themselves superior to the humans, they had long ago agreed to not create unnecessary uproar and attention to themselves. Marcel had been enjoying spending time with his people, away from the drama of the Mikaelsons that night. Thierry's outburst should have gotten to him. Should have made him react the way he usually did, this was what Thierry had wanted anyway. But the past month had forced him to put things into perspective. Between what he and Rebekah had shared, his reluctant friendship with Elijah and the affection he still had for his sire Klaus, he had found a semblance of peace. With the addition of Davina, his somewhat surrogate daughter, he had never been happier. He had felt the way he had when his sire had first took him in, cared for, valued and protected. Now, after what they had gone through, the Mikelsons have put everything behind them and treated him with respect and family. Something he was sure they did not do easily, not with just anyone, it was as if what should have happened over a hundred years ago had finally happened. He had a family now, the Mikaelsons were his family. He hoped Rebekah could have enjoyed that moment with him, maybe in time.

The day before this outing with Thierry, Diego and some of the vampires, he had a very long discussion with the brothers, he smiled unconsciously as he recalled his shock at what had happened,

"Marcellus come join us," Elijah beckoned Marcel inside the family library. Marcel had noted the presence of Klaus, Caroline and Davina as he entered, "I have asked Davina to spell this room and from this day on, only the people present in this room plus one other can enter this room, it is spelled that way, we will need the privacy for what we are about to do."

Davina had been sitting at with her eyes still focused on a grimoire and Klaus and Caroline were seated comfortably in a loveseat. But as Marcel progressed deeper into the room, Klaus stood up to continue were his brother left off, "Marcellus, despite my better judgment I am following the advice of my dear brother. Between us, we have so much history together but the same history stops me from taking that last step to trusting you again. The irony of it all is that it's the same setting as the last time, Mikael is here, wants to kill me and possibly my siblings and the people I care about. The last time, you betrayed me, you sided with Mikael. Dare say you would do it again?"

Marcel could only frown at this, he knew were Klaus was coming from, he too would be doubtful of anyone who would turncoat especially because of the sensitivity of the current situation. But he had made his decision weeks ago, he deeply regretted what he had done and now only wanted to live up to what Klaus expecting of him. He would convince Klaus that this time he had his back, and he would die trying if necessary.

"I don't expect you to forgive much less forget so easily, it wouldn't be you. I would do the same given the same situation," Marcel shrugged.

Klaus eyed Marcel, "if you were me," Klaus emphasized, "what would you do about you?"

Marcel lowered his head in resignation, "kill me."

Klaus flashed to Marcel and Marcel's eyes widened when he noticed Klaus' hand was slowly penetrating his chest to grab his heart. They stared at each other for only a few seconds, but for all he knew it could have been hours. Then Klaus slowly let go of his heart, wiping the blood on Marcel's chest before tapping him twice on the shoulders and distancing himself. "Someone once told me, for me to be a great King, I have to show mercy and forgiveness," sneaking a glance at Caroline, "you have wronged me in a way that would get any other dead a long time ago Marcel," exhaling heavily, "but a long, long time ago, I considered you family, I would hope you won't disappointment me this one last time again or god help you, the death of every vampire in the Quarter will be on your hands."

Marcel's eyes watered the moment Klaus called him family, a feeling of contentment he had so long buried and forgotten when the Mikaelsons left him when they had ran away from New Orleans when Mikael came after them. Family, the one thing he thought he lost when they had left him, the one thing that drove him to build the army of vampires he had to replace the one he lost. He finally accepted that it was the Mikaelsons, particularly Klaus who had cared for him the most unconditionally. Not his father who had long since abandoned him, not even the vampires who looked to him as someone who would ensure they remained the superior raise, to rule above the humans and other supernaturals. And he had turned his back on Klaus, tried to destroy the man who had given him the greatest gift. He would not disappoint Klaus Mikaelson again, and if he did, he deserved to die.

"I don't deserve your mercy, or your forgiveness, if I deserve another chance, I will make it right. I will fight by your side. I would give up my life for your family," Marcel said with a passion.

"Right now what I need you to do is find out who Mikael has been working with, witches, vampires, other supernaturals. We need to be able to have this information," Klaus locked eyes with Marcel, "the family needs to be protected."

"I suggest you lower your voice Thierry, this is not the place for that." Marcel swallowed his drink while eying the other vampires with them.

Thierry wouldn't just shut up, "Elijah and Klaus are distracted, if we work with Mikael we can kill them. We have to strike now," Marcel grabbed Thierry by the throat, "what the hell are you saying."

Trying not to choke, Thierry continued, "Mikael, he wants us to work with him, some of us have already started, but we need you to make a stand, we need you with us," Marcel looked at Diego momentarily. "Did you know about this?"

Diego shook his head, "I have been with you the whole time, Thierry has been missing in the last two days. "how about you, what is your say I this?" Marcel asked Diego.

Looking back at Thierry before answering, "I don't agree with what Thierry is doing, we shouldn't be caught up in this war between the Mikaelsons."

Marcel let go of Thierry's throat, "but you will have to choose a side just like Thierry and undoubtedly the others have, which will it be Diego?" while Marcel did not expect to do a loyalty check at that moment, circumstances have changed, he needed to know were alliances were.

Diego shook his head, "if you are asking me if I agree with what Thierry is doing then my answer is No."

As they were, Diego and Thierry were facing one another with the vampires unconsciously aligning behind who they believed was right. Marcel was in the middle when he took a backstep to stand beside Diego, "Thierry, I've known you for a long time, I hate for us to be on opposite sides of this war, and believe me this is a war, far bigger than us, but if you insist on siding with Mikael then I promise you, you will meet your end very soon."

Thierry scoffed, "so you would choose the Klaus over us! After all we have been though together."

Marcel shook his head and said quietly, "I chose family, Mikael is not family."

"Well then, I am sorry to hear that Marcellus, you could have chosen the winning side, instead you chose the losing side," Mikael had flashed in front of Marcel and plunged his hand inside his chest to grab his heart. Marcel fell on his knee in pain but managed to say brokenly, "I chose family and loyalty"

A sudden movement had Thierry on the floor minus a heart which was now on Elijah's hand which he immediately threw against a wall. In half a second, he had injected Mikael with vervain to weaken him enough to let go of Marcel. Elijah nodded silently to Marcel, who was still recovering from having his heart pinched, before grabbing Mikael and flashing him away.

Klaus caught Caroline who suddenly stumbled after grasping her neck. Klaus gathered Caroline bridal style to the bedroom and lowered her on the bed. Klaus was gently caressing her cheek, "I'm sorry you had to go through that love."

Caroline tried to smile weakly, "I know you're sorry. But it need to be done, we had to have Mikael if the spell was going to work. If he was vervained then that means Elijah and Marcel were successful." Caroline closed her eyes, "now I need to rest, I hate it so much that I am still bounded to Mikael."

Klaus kissed her temple, "I'm sorry love."

Caroline was slowly losing consciousness, "stop saying sorry, just stay with me. Hold me."

Klaus got into bed with Caroline as instructed and folded her into his arm until he felt her finally fall asleep.

"Where is Niklaus, little brother?" Elijah made his way to the east wing.

Kol shook his finger at Elijah, "I wouldn't go in there if I were you. Caroline felt the vervain shot you gave Mikael. She's still sleeping it off."

Elijah closed his eyes for a moment, "it couldn't be helped little brother, not while they are still bound together. But she knew about this," as he slowly turned the knob to open the door.

As his brothers entered, Klaus untangled himself from Caroline slowly, Elijah neared the bed and gazed at Caroline while speaking to his brother, "I'm sorry, but it had to be done."

Klaus rubbed his face, "I know, but it still doesn't make it easier. Is Mikael in the garden?"

Elijah nodded, "tomorrow brother, this has to be done tomorrow. His alliances shouldn't be alerted that he has been captured." Elijah squeezed Klaus' shoulder, "Thierry's dead, he was the spy for the vampires used by Mikael, Thierry's followers are being dealt with by Marcel. I just have to take care of Monique, she is the witch used by Mikael now, little brother it's time you made an appearance," glancing at Kol.

"Is there anything you need me to do Elijah?" Klaus asked.

Elijah patted his brother on the back, "I want you to take care of Caroline and read through the spell again, I will help you read through the spell after I brief Kol on what he needs to do." Elijah eyed his brother again, "I seem to remember the wolves are suppose to be here later, brother?"

Caroline and Klaus had been sitting on a couch after Elijah, Davina and they had gone over the spell several times and they all finally agreed on how it will be done the day after. Elijah escorted Davina outside of the library saying he would check up on Kol. Klaus refused to let Caroline out of his arms as he continued to stroke her back while sitting on his lap. "Are you sure, we can always find another way. I know you love being a vampire."

Caroline's head was leaned into his chest, "I didn't really hate my life as a human, but I like it more now that I am a vampire, especially lately. But this is only temporary."

Klaus gripped Caroline tightly, "what if something goes wrong, spells have been known to backfire," lifting her chin so she can be eye to eye with him, "it's me he wants dead, I can just exchange my life for yours."

Caroline shook her head, "Mikael doesn't want you dead, he wants you to suffer a fate worse than death."

Klaus kissed her temple, "and if I lose you, I will be even worse than I already am. Even my brothers will finally turn their backs on me, I will have nothing to live for. Mikael knows me well."

Caroline nudged Klaus, "you will do no such thing. Mikael will not win. I will not die." Grabbing his face, "look at me, you're brothers chose you, even Rebekah. I chose you, I came to New Orleans for you." Caroline stood up and extended her arm to Klaus for his to hold, "come with me you and I have to get ready for a meeting with your wolf clan."

Monique was about to exit the Lafayette Cemetery, harnessing powers from her Deveraux ancestors when she noticed a man just sitting on a bench gazing at a stone marker. She frowned as the man did not even bother to look up as she approached and just stared steadily at the marker. The man looked lonely and heartbroken and she immediately felt sympathy, she was all alone herself having lost all her living relatives except for the company of some witches. She went over to touch the shoulder of the man but an inch before she touched him, her witch senses warned her that this man was supernatural. The man finally sensing her presence turned to his side and looked at her before looking back at the marker.

"I come here to think sometimes," the man said.

Monique touched his shoulder this time, "you're a vampire."

The man nodded, "yes I am, I'm a vampire. I have relatives buried here, that's why I am here, It gives me peace, helps me keep calm, aids my thinking."

Monique sat down on the bench, "I come here to visit my ancestors too. I am all alone myself."

The man stood up, "enough soul searching for the day, may I walk you home?"

Monique stared at the man, "certainly." Ever since she got back, she was ignored by everyone except when the other witches needed her. The other witches had abhorred her, the others just opted to pay her no heed, they had been friends with her aunts. Now both where dead because of her, a harvest witch girl. Now someone was finally paying attention to her, even if he was a vampire. She could use a friend, maybe it could turn into something more. Vampires and witches were natural enemies but she never really cared for that. She was a powerful witch who did not have the respect of the other witches, in time she would gain that respect. Even replace Genevieve as head of the witches, it was her right. More than Davina, her adversary. Davina had the Mikaelsons supporting her, she had Mikael on her side. Her plans were coming into fruition. Soon, she will be a respected witch. In the meantime, she had someone to walk her home.

Stealing a glance at the vampire beside her, he was without a doubt extremely fine-looking, young and looked lonely. From what she had sensed, he was probably a newbie vamp, all alone in the world. They had been walking a good fifteen minutes before Monique had stopped saying, "this is my place. I am Monique by the way."

The man stood still for a moment then let out a smile that had her senses fluttering. He grabbed her hand then put it to his lips, "pleased to make you're acquaintance Monique. May I visit you tomorrow in the afternoon?" Getting a nod from her, he stepped away and took two steps back, "by the way, my name is Kol."

After he was sure that she was inside, Kol flashed away back to the mansion his mission for the day fulfilled. He was to station himself tomorrow with Monique just in case the witch was also in some way bound to Mikael and sensed it when they finally kill Mikael. If for whatever reason she started to chant, trance of do something witchy to aid Mikael he were to kill her immediately, tomorrow. Davina has been asked to spell him, to camouflage the fact that he was an Original and make him a young vampire to the senses of any witch. Now the young witch Davina, she was intriguing to him, she kept to herself and seemed a little afraid of him. She was introduced to him yesterday after his brothers had finally come clean and consented to make both Davina and Marcel privy to their plans.

'What is this?" Klaus inquired as Caroline led him to a section of his painting room which had mysteriously been furnished with a round table for two, lit by candlelight, goblets of what smelled like blood-wine and two plates with delights he was still to uncover.

"I figured after that meeting with your wolf clan, we all need a break from everything," lifting her hands dramatically. "Although," circling her arms around his neck, "I see you're happy that your wolf family has taken to you so easily. However, tonight is about you," lowering her hands from his neck to his chest then looking up at him from underneath her lashes.

Klaus turned to Caroline with a raised brow, "am I not suppose to be doing the wooing here. Are you trying to seduce me, Ms. Forbes?"

Caroline bit her lip, "am I doing it right so far, I've never done this before you know."

Klaus embraced Caroline but kept their heads apart so he could continue to look at her while he talked, "is there anything else on the menu tonight?"

Caroline shoved Klaus lightly, "let's eat first then you'll find out." She stepped out of Klaus' arms and walked over to a chair to pulling it slightly, "take a seat Mr. Mikaelson."

Klaus obediently followed Caroline's instruction as she assisted Klaus to sit down before she sat down opposite him. She lifted her glass and prodded Klaus to do the same, "I hope you like it," before taking a satisfying sip.

She lifted the covers of the plates, "dinner is served." She opened a side dish which housed freshly picked strawberries and dip one on a bowl of melted chocolate, "or an appetizer first, whichever you prefer," bring the dipped strawberry closer to Klaus' mouth. Klaus held her arm steadily opening his mouth to bite into the fruit while locking eyes with Caroline. After he finished off the fruit he captures the fingers that were holding the fruit into his mouth sucking off the remaining juices that spilled over.

Klaus smirked at Caroline's fluttered reaction, while still not letting go of her hand, he used his other one to grab a strawberry and dip it in chocolate before putting the fruit in front of her silently coaxing her to do what he just did a moment ago.

What could have been all of thirty minutes of dinner took almost triple to time to consume as both of them insisted of feeding one another slowly finishing off the rest of the strawberries, before completing the main course and finally a slice of the finest chocolate cake. Klaus had deliberately after feeding her the last piece of cake let the fork slide down the side of her lip causing some icing to stick by her lip.

Klaus had slowly leaned forward, "there is a tad of chocolate by your lip, since it is my favorite, I wanted to finish of the last bit," as he slowly licked the remainder of the chocolate off the lip of Caroline. She however couldn't help the moan that escaped from her lips and felt Klaus smirk even as he continued to lick her lips one last time. He was now holding Caroline lifting her from her chair but still locking his eyes with hers, "that was the most satisfying dinner I have had in a while."

Caroline eyes danced at the compliment but she wasn't done yet. She lifted herself on her tippy toes and whispered into Klaus' ear, "are you ready for your dessert?"

Klaus eyes widened and his cock noticeably hardened, at least enough for Caroline to notice since they were still locked in an embrace. Caroline smirked at Klaus letting her fingers slide between them as she traced Klaus' hardness. "I think I got my answer," giggled a bit then pulled Klaus toward the adjoining bedroom.

She further pulled Klaus just beside the bed, placing her arms on his chest before sliding them underneath his Henley to remove Klaus; shirt. With the shirt gone, she traced his chest once again, noting Klaus short shallow breaths and looking into his eyes, she slowly unbuckled his belt, unzipped his pants and let it fall to the floor.

She cupped Klaus outside his boxers before leaning back in to capture his lips for a short searing kiss which caught Klaus by surprise that by the time he recovered, she has removed her lips form his. He was eying Caroline with hooded eyes, lost as he was in what Caroline was doing. He had never come undone the way he was right now, not knowing what was happening but loving and anticipating everything she was about to do to him.

She started to kiss his chest while still stroking him over his boxers. Licking a nipple and nibbling it before sucking it noisily. Klaus had felt himself lift off with only his toes touching the ground when Caroline started to kiss his nipple. He momentarily forgot where he wanted his hands to be positioned, as they were hanging uselessly on his sides. She repeated her action on his other nipple making him groan and huff finally remembering he had hands which he promptly used to grab Caroline's hair with.

Caroline sneaked a glance at Klaus seeing his eyes closed and an expression of bliss on his face before she continued to kiss her way lower until she felt the barrier that was his boxers. She sneaked another glance at Klaus and found him tensely looking down on her, she made a show of grabbing the garter of his boxers before tearing it off a second later. With his cock right in from of her, she gently moved her hands to grab Klaus' ass from the back to bring the tip of his member toward her awaiting lips as she sensually started to lick his tip.

Klaus' groan of her name was all the encouragement she need as she took all of him inside her mouth. She started to pump him and quickening her pace as she took him as far as her throat allowed her. She was so lost in her own haze that she didn't hear the grunts and groans her action elicited from Klaus.

"Caroline! You better stop what you're doing I'm about to come!" Klaus tried to pull her away without hurting her but she locked herself by his butt and was even moving faster encouraging him to come in her mouth. As much as he tried to control it, the combined friction of Caroline's mouth and the electric sensations he was feeling made him unconsciously pump into Caroline's mouth a few times before he completely became undone inside her mouth. He tried to extricate her from him one last time but she was happily lapping on his cum, milking him dry.

When at last she let go of him and sat down unceremoniously at the floor, he could see her smiling up at him while running her finger across her lip, as if trying to capture the remains of his cum that escaped her. When he bent down to take a hold of her, she promptly stood up and in a flash pushed Klaus toward the bed as he heavily fell down on it.

"I am hardly done with you," she slowly unhooked her wrap around dress to give him a peak of what was waiting for him underneath. She straddled Klaus before bending down to capture his bottom lip sucking it, biting it before doing the same with his upper lip. Her hands were back to tracing the muscles on his chest which made Klaus groan once again. As Klaus' lips parted, Caroline snuck in her tongue to deepen the kiss. She suddenly stopped what she was doing, sitting back down on Klaus' hips before she wiggled out of her dress totally. Seeing her completely naked underneath, Klaus sat down, locking Caroline ass on his waist before he dipped his lips to her neck making little marks.

He wanted to bite her neck and he wanted her to do the same to him, but since she was still bounded to Mikael he had to stop himself. It frustrated him no end that Mikael was bound to Caroline. He was thankful that they at least had been successful with a sleeping spell that was localized on Mikael so he would be out for a few hours.

Caroline pushed Klaus back to lie down, as much as he wanted to switch positions. He had let her take control. From the beginning, he had let her take the lead. Something he had never done before. He always wanted to be in control even during sex. But he realized this wasn't just sex, this was them making love. Him and his Caroline, and everytime she wanted to 'be on top' so to speak, he would let her, and only her. Not that he intended for there to be any other after Caroline. She was his for eternity and he was hers if she wanted him for eternity.

Caroline captured his cock inside her effectively cut his inner thoughts. He hissed at the sensation of being inside her heat, he grabbed her ass squeezing it then locking eyes with Caroline as if getting her consent to set the pace. Her gentle head shake and her grabbing his hands, entwining each one with hers and placing them on each side of his head while starting a slow rocking motion effectively shut him up further. What started as a slow pace was soon hard, uneven and breathless as Caroline lost herself in him, screaming his name at the top of her voice a few times and just before her second orgasm, she bent down to kiss Klaus frantically again. With her second orgasm Klaus finally let go as he never had before, he never came so hard and fast than that moment.

She collapsed into him breathing heavily but totally sated. As she slowly recovered, she kissed Klaus tenderly one last time, caressed his cheeks then looked deeply into his eyes, "I love you," her answer was a genuine smile on his lips. As she tucked herself into Klaus, with her head on his shoulders and her body partially on top of him embracing him, he gathered his arms around her, kissed her in the temple and very quietly whispered, "I love you too, my Caroline, for eternity."

"Hey, Good Morning," Caroline watched Klaus as he was staring unseeingly outside the window, "did you even sleep?"

Klaus smiled tenderly at Caroline, "I couldn't sleep."

Caroline stood up from the bed, wrapping the sheet around her before she embraced Klaus from the back, "I told you not to worry. I had hoped to that we could shower together but I see you're already dressed."

Klaus turned around to face Caroline fully and kissed her temple tenderly, "I have to talk to Elijah and Davina for final preparations, you can have as much time as you want to bath. I will get you when we are ready. Please stay in the room, my love."

As Klaus started to turn away Caroline grabbed him and captured his lips, "I love you."

Klaus embraced Caroline a long time before answering, "I love you too, forever."

It was almost noon when Klaus came back to get Caroline and lead her to the dungeons, Davina, Elijah and Kol where all present. Kol moved forward first to give her a hard embrace, "sister," holding her hands, "I'm sorry that I have to be somewhere else and can't stay longer, I need to be with the witch working with father just in case she decides to intervene," squeezing her hands before flashing away.

Davina had been setting up the items she will need for the spell when Caroline glanced to a slumbering figure chained to the wall. Caroline looked to her side and found the brothers, Elijah and Klaus both gazing at Mikael with unreadable expressions. She reached out to twine her hand to Klaus and leaned into him, her other hand over his heart. Klaus embraced Caroline with his other arm and kissed her temple. Caroline looked up at Klaus for a moment then pulled him away from Mikael and toward Davina. She stopped infront of Elijah and grabbed his arm to also lead him away from Mikael.

At their approach, Davina stood up and nodded at Elijah signaling that she was ready to do the spell. "I will need a drop of blood from both Caroline and Mikael," she told Elijah. Elijah nodded, got the bowl and dagger she intended to use and flashed to Mikael to draw some blood from him. Immediately after Elijah handed the dagger back to Davina so she could also draw blood from Caroline.

With everything done, Davina lit all the candles as she started to chant, each chant growing louder and louder as she went into trance. As the chanting went on, Caroline held on the Klaus until a loud howl was heard and everyone's attention except for Davina's was turned toward Mikael, with eyes almost bulging out of his sockets, "what are you doing!", he demanded.

Eying his father, Elijah moved closer to him, "you will never learn, you will never stop trying to kill my brother and your other children."

Mikael looked at Elijah as if he was crazy, "never, I will never stop! I should have killed that bastard when he was human, or never even turned him into a vampire. He was always the one driving our family apart, all of you, my children, your mother. It was his fault!"

Elijah shook his head, "you still don't get it, after all this time. It was never his fault. It was you, it was always you. You who beat him, hit him, almost killed him so many times before when he was human," Elijah stepped closer to his father and looked him in the eye, "you blamed him for something that was mothers wrong doing to you."

Mikael growled, "no! it was the bastard Niklaus and his father's fault. I killed his father once before and still after all this time Esther chose him!" looking beyond Elijah to Klaus, "I will kill you Niklaus, mark my words!"

Elijah glanced sadly at Mikael, "I have failed Niklaus more than once, failed to defend him, stand up to you for what you were doing to him when we were human. I will not do it agan. I am sorry it has come to this…father" as Elijah stepped away from Mikael, Davina rose her hands for a final chant as Mikael screamed at the top of his lungs and as did Caroline before both collapsed, Klaus caught Caroline easily. Moments later Davina also collapsed on the floor.

In the aftermath of the spell, Mikael lay haphazardly still chained to the wall unconscious. Elijah once again approached Mikael while glancing at his brother who had Caroline in his arms on the floor. "He has a faint heartbeat, I think we will leave him chained in the meantime, brother we have to check if they are unbound before I attend to Davina."

Klaus glanced up to his brother with tears threatening to escape, "brother, I do not hear a heartbeat. She is not a vampire anymore so we should hear one," framing Caroline's face, "Caroline, wake up," shaking her, "come back t me, don't leave me."

Elijah bent down to his brother and Caroline afraid to believe his brother. A second later, "he glanced back up to his brother, "brother, take her up to the room. I will wait for Davina to wake up. We can leave Mikael here in the meantime, this dungeon is spelled," squeezing his brothers shoulder, "the spell will worked, we just have to wait a little longer for her to wake up. She is not turning gray, this is a good sign."

Klaus wanted to believe his brother, but couldn't until his Caroline woke up. He stood up slowly with Caroline in his arms and just managed a small nod at his brother before flashing his Caroline to the room.

Elijah looked around slowly, looking at Mikael again who remained unconscious before picking up Davina to bring her to rest hoping that she will wake up shortly. He needed her awake to check why Caroline was the way she was, he didn't want to accept, the same way as his brother that Caroline was forever gone to them.

In the meantime, Kol had been lightly flirting with Monique when Monique suddenly stood up to close her eyes for a moment. When she opened them again she started to walk out of the living room to an inner room, but before she continued she turned back to Kol, "you have to leave now, something has come up that I have to attend to immediately," Kol squinted his eyes for a moment before nodding, "I will show myself out." With that Monique turned away to walk into the inner room.

Monique quickly opened a closet and gathered a grimoire, a few candles and a vial of blood to a table and after lighting the candles, started to chant.

Kol had gotten a short and precise text on his phone as he pretended to walk out the front door, opening and closing the front door. He shook his head for a bit before flashing inside the room Monique disappeared into interrupting her chant.

Monique fell down on the floor, "what are you still doing here!" she said angrily to Kol.

Kol walked to her menacingly, "what are you doing. Tell me now or suffer a painful death."

Monique's only response was to lift her hands at Kol and chant, after a few seconds she frowned and restarted her chant frowning again.

Kol laughed, "your mojo has no effect on me, I have been spelled against witch attacks. Now tell me, what did Mikael tell you to do?"

Monique's eyes widened, "How do you know about Mikael."

Kol smirked, "that's easy, my name is Kol Mikaelson, I am his son. And father has been up to no good, as usual. Now answer my question, we can do this the easy way or the hard way, your choice."

This is a very long chapter, the longest i have ever written but I could cut it anywhere, everything just had to be in this chapter. I hope you all loved this.

As usual, reviews are much appreciated. Next chapter will be posted next week.
