Nemeria's Point of View

The airport was bustling with noise, the steady hum of conversations blending with the sound of rolling luggage and distant intercom announcements. Nemeria stood near the private terminal, her dark eyes scanning the arrivals. The scent of jet fuel and humanity made her stomach turn, but she pushed aside her distaste.

She wasn't here for comfort. She was here for war.

A sleek black jet taxied to a stop, and moments later, the doors opened. Sergio was the first to emerge, his sharp green eyes locking onto her the moment he stepped onto the tarmac. He moved with the same arrogance he had always carried, the confidence of a man who knew his bloodline made him both a curse and a weapon. Behind him, draped in a deep crimson cloak, walked Solène. The ancient witch's steps were unhurried, deliberate. Power radiated from her like a second skin.

Nemeria smirked. Finally.

As they approached, Sergio shoved his hands into the pockets of his tailored coat, tilting his head. "You look tense."

Nemeria scoffed. "I am tense. Time is running out."

Solène lifted a brow. "Then let us not waste it standing on this foul-smelling pavement."

The three of them entered a black SUV waiting nearby. Once inside, with the doors shut and the city passing in a blur, Nemeria exhaled sharply.

"We need to sever the bond between Alexis and me to Sergio's bloodline," she said. "Every second we spend near that unborn child weakens the spell that has kept us immune to magic for centuries. If we don't act now, we'll be vulnerable. Forever."

Solène folded her hands in her lap. "Severing such a bond is not simple. The spell was designed to protect you both from magical influence-including mine. If I break it, you will regain your simple ways at being an old vampire... but you will also become vulnerable to every curse, every hex, every wound. MAGIC will hurt you again"

Sergio's eyes darkened. "And it will no longer stop my blood from killing you. Therefore I will be free from you Correct ?"

Nemeria nodded. "Yes and more precisely Which is why we need to ensure that child is never born. The mother of your child has some connection with the Mikaelsons that I don't quit get for now but I will discover it soon. The Mikaelson have been our sire but they left us to run from Mikael their father thinking that we were them. We had to find that trick to not being killed by anything magic related in other to out run an orginals vampire. They are my ennemies since then and I am not at ease to let in their hands the only weapon that could kill us.

I only have two options left, it's either take the baby out or take you both out. What do you think? You know me better my ward, I always serious under vital threat" I said tilting my head on the left to let him know I am dead serious about that threat

Sergio leaned forward. "You want to kill Eva's unborn baby? My child ..."

Nemeria met his gaze without flinching. "That child is an abomination. Your blood flows through it, and that blood is our death sentence. If we eliminate it, the balance of power remains in our favor. Just enough time so we won't be linked to your bloodline "

A muscle ticked in Sergio's jaw, but he said nothing.

Solène sighed, as if discussing something as mundane as the weather. "And how do you plan to accomplish this without alerting the Mikaelsons?"

Nemeria's lips curled into a slow, cold smile. "We will invite them over to dinner. So we can discuss about the future of "the baby" " Nemeria said adding quote in mid air with her hands.

The Plan

The SUV stopped in front of an abandoned manor of the new orleans that currently being renovated the paint is still fresh on the wall -one of the many properties the twins had claimed over the centuries. They moved inside, candlelight flickering as Solène waved a hand, setting a barrier spell in place.

Nemeria turned to face them and started to explain her plan while Sergio, Solene and Lexis, all seat in front of her listening "We'll extend an olive branch. A truce. We invite them all to a peaceful dinner to discuss our 'differences.'"

Sergio crossed his arms. "And you expect them to accept? That klaus of yours you told me about will willingly fall for that you think? "

"Oh, they will," she purred. "The Mikaelsons thrive on arrogance. They will see this as an opportunity to control the narrative, to lay their own terms of the bargain. I am sure by now they know my brother is still alive seeing the theatrics they tried to pull on us the last time. They will want to make peace with me. I know Elijah and Klaus even more inside and out"

Solène nodded. "And the poison?"

Nemeria stepped to the long dining table, running her fingers over the polished wood. "A slow-acting blend-something that will weaken Eva's body from within. If we do it right, her own magic will rebel against her, causing the miscarriage naturally."

Solène frowned. "You underestimate the child's defenses. If it has inherited Sergio's bloodline's immunity, it will protect itself. "

Nemeria's smile faltered for a fraction of a second. "Then we get the added bonus of exposing the truth. Either way, we win."

Sergio, who had been silent for too long, finally spoke. "And what if you're wrong? What if killing that baby does something we haven't accounted for? Why not starting by unlinking us first?"

Nemeria scoffed. "You hesitate now? You would rather risk our lives for some unborn creature? Look I know it's yours and I raised you better than this but I have witness first hand the power of that pregnancy. When I came here I wanted to protect it also and care for that baby but if the Mikaelsons discover the truth we are all as good as dead. We have no other option we are running out of time. They can come at us anytime specilally now that they have around them the very things that can cause us harm "

Sergio's jaw clenched. "I'm just saying, we don't know what happens if that child dies. You are supposed to protect our bloodline what if it backlash we don't know that? We should invite Eva closer to us and see by ourself how that child power will be when it'll be born so will know what to expect"

Nemeria shake her head about to protest with Sergio proposal when Solène lifted a hand, silencing them both. "We will proceed with caution. The Mikaelsons must not suspect a thing."

And to Alexis to agreed to that " Solene, is right. Let first tried to kill this thing in utérus and at least will know if it doesnt work the magic of that baby will protect it and will see from there what to do next. To make sur they have no suspicion the poison must not be in the food but the drink she is pregnant surely she wont drink wine"

Solene " OR else, I can simply cast a spell from the room across toward her. They won't know"

Sergio exhaled sharply. "Fine. Let's do it your way"
