April of Angst and Whump, Day Four

Still on catch up time, and this has been the hold up, but it's FINALLY done, almost took the whole month.

Caged Founder - follows on from Pinned down, Elijah learns of Rebekah's disappearance, and as Tristan's plan falls apart he learns of a loophole in the protections from his sire.

For @whumpril 2025 day 4- Threat

For @chaos-company's Angstpril 2025 day 4 - "I trusted you"

---

Elijah had taken the chance to get Freya, to offer apologises for his behaviour, she hadn't deserved the venom he had almost aimed at her.

It wasn't her fault he had grown up in the grief her kidnapping had made, nor that her plan to take him from the Gala had accidentally brought back memories of his overconfidence and fall that had left him adrift and powerless for decades.

Klaus hadn’t replaced him, it was simply that someone needed to act as his calming hand and with Rebekah away, it had fallen to the newly returned older sister. 

Although he was well aware that repeating that to himself was just delaying a bad day, he didn’t have time for one of them while here, not until things were settled and his family whole. The longer things remained unstable, the longer Jason was apart from them and he had promised his son to fix things. 

He really should have known better, things rarely went smoothly when Klaus was at the centre of it and the Trinity had far too much unresolved tension with his brother not to act against their own interests, just to spite Klaus and himself. 

His reunion with Klaus was the glaring example of that, thanks to Aurora. The fact Lucien had placed himself at Klaus’ side to tell tales to raise his brother’s concerns shouldn’t have been a surprise given how quickly Klaus gave in to flattery and his honest belief that Lucien was his friend. Elijah really should have worked harder at teaching Klaus to read others' feelings better when they were children, but then he had been trying to protect him from Father’s disappointment.

Another failure.

Elijah forced himself to take a breath and smother that guilt and loathing, he didn’t have time to vanish for a day in bed paralysed by his own despair.

Who knew what a mess his lovers and Lucien would make if he did. Honestly Tristan’s behaviour had been disturbingly moderated, when Elijah thought about it, possessive words lacking any real acts behind them to try to force Elijah’s hand.

The recruitment of Marcel, was Aya’s doing and truly made sense, claiming a city by absorbing the leadership, but it was still Aya’s countering his claiming of two of her strongest witches.

Aya was aware of his fondness of Marcel, he had told her about the child decades ago when he had first stepped between her and a new member of the sisterhood. However Marcel was a grown man now and able to make choices of his own, Elijah would not stop interfering with the sisterhood until Aya learnt to stop pushing them too far.

Tristan’s actions were passive, showing off their relationship to Klaus, taunting him over it to force Elijah to make a clear choice of defending him, it wasn’t that different from what he had done during Finn’s visit and it should be.

Tristan liked and respected Finn something he didn’t with Klaus and yet Tristan had still arranged to stop Finn from leaving the building.

So either Tristan had learnt and finally started to change his ways into putting his own grudges aside or- the door to the room Klaus had directed him to gave him a reason to stop musing on such things as his hearing caught the sound of Freya muttering an incantation of a location spell.

Was she missing someone? He wondered as he pushed the door open, a possible way to earn a better impression with his sister, maybe, he could get the sisterhood to help.

“Sorry to interrupt,” he called lightly as the door opened, “dinner’s starting i believe”

“What are you doing here?” she demanded sharpy.

“Niklaus sent me to fletch you,” he explained, forcing himself to keep smiling despite the rudeness. This was still his home for years, clearly she was concerned about the one she was looking for. “The meal’s due to start.” 

“Of course because Niklaus decided to welcome our enemies to dinner, why must he choice the most complicated plots i have no idea.” she hissed, he allowed her to rant as he took a closer look at her spell and froze.

Several maps sat under the candles, the largest was one of the world but to the side was a hair brush he was familiar with, he had seen Rebekah use it daily for years while they lived here.

“You're looking for Rebekah?” he asked unable to hide the surprise and concern in his voice, because if they didn’t know where Rebekah was then he wasn’t just the strix his sister was hiding from but someone else hiding her from them.

And with a sinking feeling he likely knew who.

“As if you don’t know-” she stopped her accusation as she took the sight of him in “you don’t know she’s missing?” Freya  asked in surprise and he hated being so obvious, she shook the surprise off to continue “But your strix” she spat the name, “attacked her on your orders.”

“I requested the spell she was working on,” He told her as his mind worked, they had returned with it days ago, yes Aya had gone further than he liked but she did as she wanted and wished to test herself against an Original that didn’t have any sentimental feelings for her, to exploit. 

Aya was lucky Rebekah rarely bothered to finish her opponents but she had returned with the spell and a few less men leaving Rebekah there, no doubt pissed but free.

Elijah had checked with help from his witches.

“Yes, she told us they burnt the spell.”

“Stole,” he corrected, “if you’re going to revive m-our brothers I'd prefer it be by my witches and not any tied to the ancestors, they have a fair number of reasons to hate our family, even before Marcel’s reign of terror and Niklaus’ return.” he explained, Elijah had spent much of their time ruling new Olreans dealing with them and had felt their hate and resentment even from the other side.

He respected them, liked and befriended a few but the ancestors were never to be trusted. Their hatred of his kind and resentment of his family tended to lead those no longer in danger in the living world to act foolishly on those emotions.

 The idea of Kol’s spirit resting among them was not a comfort even if Miss Claire had only done it in a misguided attempt to save him.

“I told her to return to us and she agree but then-” Freya told him as Elijah traced the map forcing himself to remain calm as his anger grew. Elijah knew he had a temper, it was something he inherited from Mikael and that knowledge meant he had worked hard to control and manage it.

“You lost contact.” he finished for her, noticing the tremor in his hand a very clear sign his calming techniques were useless in this case. “She was returning to the city?” 

The city Tristan had set his sights on and taken over even if Klaus and Marcel hadn’t noticed how far the roots of the Stix had reached. Rebekah returned alone, a key control opportunity of Klaus, Marcel and himself walking right into the Stix hands, Aurora’s sire and the biggest threat to her life.

Maybe Tristan wasn’t showing signs of a change, he was just distracted with something more important than his petty spite. 

Elijah’s little sister.

His control snapped.

“TRISTAN!” he roared before he could stop himself leaving the room in a burst of supernatural speed.

He stopped himself at the stairs and forced himself to take a breath. He couldn’t hurt Tristan and needed answers,he had to play him. The shout at least had an effect to cause the entire table to be silent as they looked up at him.

“I thought I had made it very clear.” he started slowly, as he met Tristan’s eyes “Rebekah is off limits.”

“Whatever you think, is wrong.” Tristan replied, irritatingly calm, if not for the smallest of tells as he scraped a nail over his thumb’s crease.

“You didn’t take advantage of Rebekah’s isolation after the Strix attack to give yourself another piece in the game?” he asked

“No, I didn’t.” Tristan said, Elijah narrowed his eyes as he found not a speck of deception.

“Then, where is she?” he demanded as he slowly descended the steps.

“That’s another matter.”

“Tristan.” he hissed as he took the final step from the stairs.

“A disgruntled group of Lucien’s men have her.” Tristan offered freely, Lucien nodded eyeing Elijah with appropriate wariness, at least he remembered.

“And how did such a lowly group get to and manage to hold her, where Aya and her man failed to best her?” he continued narrowing his eyes as Tristan’s lips pursed. They both ignored Lucien’s insulted noise and Elijah refused to glance at Niklaus.

“They stole a weapon from us.” Tristan said quickly and Elijah found himself freezing.

“What weapon?” Niklaus asked, standing from the place he had sat at the head of the table, “What weapons do you have that can hold an Original?”

“Which?” he started before cutting himself off, “one of the Stakes.” he sighed, watching as Tristan nodded.

He took a step towards the table and reached for a knife, to give him something to do with his hands before he could allow himself to fully react. “The stakes you told me would never be used again, never see the light of day.”

“I already have her location and the sisters preparing the cure.” Tristan told him instead as if it would help knowing what his sister was going through as they spoke, as Tristan had hid it from him.

His little sister who he hadn't seen since that last night, distraught as father burned their city and failed to protect ever since, from Niklaus, from mother’s deceptions and everything else.

“Cure?” Niklaus repeated the word with concern, slamming a hand on the table to get the attention, “What are you talking about?”

Elijah had noticed from the start his brother had seemed content to watch until now, although Elijah was relieved by the interruption as he could use it to force himself to focus on solving this issue, rescuing Rebekah and not the layers of anger and hurt it had inspired.

Had he truly been so blind to have trusted Tristan, completely, to believe in his claims and promises of changing and improving.

“The cursed Stakes were the Strix’s first plan for us,” he explained without a speck of emotion in his voice,“until they found another way.”

He really hated those things. The memory of the agony of it, the awareness though the pain to hear Tristan, Aya and the witches discuss it and him as the test he was and how they could use it against his siblings were things that never left him and while he despised the ritual that made him powerless against all his sireline he would take it over the true torture and powerlessness that the stakes brought

“Another way?” Klaus asked with a frown and a concerned look towards him.

“To neutralise the threat we are to them.” Elijah replied and tried not to let himself give into the fondness at Klaus’ concern for him. Rebekah had to come first then he had to deal with Tristan and afterward ensure Klaus understood him, and that he wouldn’t be giving up anything before he returned, he wanted his family back but he wasn’t losing anything else.  “They no longer needed them once they had me and-”

“The ritual.” Klaus growled as he got it.

“Yes, exactly.” he shrugged, although that wasn’t the full truth, they had placed the ritual on him not long after they had caught him, the stakes only ever been a threat to his siblings, until they tested it on him and realised the curse upon the removal of it would be far too much of a danger to them on an Original.

Even with the ritual preventing him from killing his sireline, when he lost control due to it he still managed to kill six of their witches even while surrounded by the Strix’s best trying to stop him.

“What’s the curse? Is that why I can’t find her?” Freya called, making Elijah aware he had been followed, he had been focusing his attention on the table, or rather the people around it.

He smothered his surprise when she came to stop at his side and not closer to Klaus, however instead of getting to enjoy the strange sensation he got from that, Elijah had never really dealt or thought of his feelings about Freya and he suddenly realised that was something he would need to with her alive and part of the family, he turned back the the table.

Something had been itching at the back of his mind, something was wrong, Aurora had relaxed when Tristan started explaining, or rather telling his story.

She had known, it could have been that they had been keeping it from himt together but Tristan rarely entrusted her with Strix business let alone something like this and Tristan himself had been off.

There was guilt over the stake but there was none of the injured pride of being stolen from or anger at the insult that any of Lucien’s sireline would manage something his Strix failed that should be there.

“There’s two, the first curse would be the agony and awareness while staked with it, and the second would be the uncontrollable rage and hunger once freed.” he explained ignoring his siblings narrowed eyes, likely wonder if he was talking from experience, he was but at least that meant they already had the cure. “But no, the stake wouldn’t be able to hide her from your spells, nor would a minor group. Would you like to change your story, my dear Tristan?”

“What?” several voices.

“I understand your concerns for Rebekah’s safety may-” Tristan started, clearly prepared to lie and manipulate him, Elijah patience snapped for the second time of the night and his hand moved.

Tristan choked as a knife embedded in his throat and everyone froze, except Aurora who threw herself from her chair to reach her brother.

“Tristan!” Aurora cried, as everyone else looked at Elijah who moved slightly to pick up the next knife set at the table. Elijah smothered the slight tremor at finally showing his ace up his sleeve, the one he had held onto for nearly all of his captivity.

“How?” Tristan wheezed as he pulled the knife out, looking from the bloody blade to Elijah as Aurora fussed.

“How did I figure out your story is a lie?” he asked lightly, the sight of Tristan’s shock and pain a temporary balm to his anger over Rebekah and the attempts to lie to his face as he watched the blood stain Tristan’s collar “or how did I hurt you?”

“How long?” 

Elijah despite himself and the situation couldn’t stop the grin taking over his face, maybe it was excitement at finally hurting him or that Tristan was looking with him awe, no doubt having worked out how many time Elijah could have killed him and the Strix.

“First year.” he answered, twisting the second knife in his hand carelessly “The flames of my burning still harmed those sent to recover me.” even as he burned he had heard the scream of pain and seen one of those who found him, jump back shaking a burning arm before someone had the thought to throw something over him to block the sun and smother the flames

“The test?” Tristan remarked,

“I could have let go,” he explained, forcing his voice to stay light as he was reminded of the powerless rage he had felt in that moment, “gravity would have given you a shallow cut that would have healed quickly and made you aware of the loop hole. Besides I wanted to impale your hand to the desk.” he smiled, well aware it was closer to a snarl.

“All this time?” Tristan asked leaning on the table, Elijah noticed the fascination and hunger he had once aimed to fan into flames at the beginning of his captivity and in the end burned them both in it. 

“We can talk of this another time,” he shut down that topic, they would but now was not the time, “Rebekah” he reminded.

“In a safe location,” Tristan replied, almost pleased- not relieved to get to explain himself or his plan “I was going to arrange Lucien’s men to move there so you could take your anger out on them as we collect her.”

“Scapegoats?” he raised a brow Tristan nodded, a ghost of a smirk almost appearing but he was at least apparently concerned about further angering Elijah that it never fully appeared.

“Where is she?” he repeated sending a pointed look toward the pocket Tristan kept his phone in, Tristan pulled his phone out and started to work on it quickly.

“How did you do that?” Lucien cut in, Elijah barley paid him a glance “pretty sure there was the ritual that stops you from hurting any of your sireline.”

“He didn’t,” Aurora said as she looked between them, “he wasn’t touching it.”

“Correct,” he gave her a smile before it faded, “now back to my sister, Aurora, why?”

“Why do you think I-” she started, hand on heart and her confusion almost more convincing that Tristan’s. If only she hadn’t reached for her heart with her left hand and showed the bare wrist that should have bore the bracelet he had gotten her the year before.

Enchanted with powerful activatable cloaking spell that she’s hadn’t taken off since he had put it on her.

Something powerful enough to hide Rebekah from any witch searching for her.   

“Tristan’s story was to protect someone and there's only a very small list of people he would put himself on the line to protect.” Elijah sighed, “So why?”

Aurora stared at him for a moment, and Elijah ignored the fact he could feel the weight of Trsitan’s eyes on him, he couldn’t hurt Tristan thanks to the ritual but Aurora had never been protected by that.

 “She threatened to take you away” Aurora broke, hissing it “and Jason too, I reacted without thinking, you know-”

“You kept it from me,” he interrupted, because yes he did know, she rarely thought through her actions, it wasn’t her fault, he knew the separation from Jason, the change from their home and safety was going to lead to her instability and he hadn’t paid enough attention to stop it, he knew the risk and hadn’t cared that much because he hadn’t thought it would be his family endangered. “You plotted behind my back and tried to lie to me.” he said instead before he let the guilt swallow him.

He could dwell on all that, guilt, failure and cruel uncaring selfishness on his next bad day.

“It was for your-” Tristan started but Aurora spoke over him.

“We didn't want to ruin the dinner given how much you wanted it to go well.” 

Elijah refused to let himself flinch.

“You should have told me.“ he repeated, holding his hand out to Tristan, until he handed over his phone. "I trusted you." He said, not making any effort to hide his disappointment.

Tristan and Aurora winced. 

“Now, the dinner seems over,” he announced, before it even began. He thought briefly of his idea-hope to have a civil conversation and settle all the things needed to ensure the safety and bring Jason to them over the meal tonight, “Lucien can go home, Aurora will come with me to collect Rebekah and get her cured.” he ordered after he had glanced at the screen to see the location and that Tristan had already informed the Sisters of the change in plans.

“I'm coming with you.” Freya told him,

“I'm sorry sister” he replied “but I was hoping you can keep Tristan company.”

What?” Several voices echoed, but Elijah kept his attention on Freya. She had been concerned for his safety and didn’t like Tristan for his sake, perhaps if she could get some of that anger out, it would help with future civility between them.

Besides Elijah was too angry and honestly hurt to think of a punishment himself for this betrayal and breaking of their carefully established rules.

“If I asked Klaus, the chances of Tristan surviving are a fraction,” he explained, “while I'm sure you can take revenge and pain without killing him. You want to don't you?”

“You're telling me to hurt him?” Freya reached out and Elijah “Torture?”

“Asking you“ he clarified “it's your choice.”

“Why?”

“He broke our rules, and maybe it can help your future acceptance of him.” he told her honestly.

“Acceptance?” Freya raised a brow at him,

“You want him alive, why? After this?” Klaus snarled before he could answer her.

“I'm fond of him,” he huffed “unfortunately attached, he's one of the few things that makes what I've suffered tolerable.” 

Freya gave him a pitying look but there was far too much understanding in it, maybe their captivities had some similarities.

Klaus’ growl was another sign that he was going to have to talk with Klaus about everything tonight, no doubt his imagination was picturing truly nightmarish situtions beyond what Elijah lived.

“You can't mean I'm to sit and allow her to torture me.” Tristan protested as he realised no one was arguing against it.

“Remember our deal, this is what I ask for this betrayal,” he said, using supernatural speed to appear behind Tristan setting his hands in his shoulders to light guide him back into sitting in his chair and moving his lips to breathe “sit and endure” into his ear before glancing to Aurora to meet her eyes “and accept.”

He felt Tristan give in as he slumped under his hands before he straightened and stepped away, reappearing closer to the door, as Klaus appeared in front of him.

 Aurora glanced between them and Tristan, clearly torn.

“And what of me brother?” Niklaus asked, eyes him with confusion.

“I would assumed you'd be coming with us to get Rebekah, I know you're burning with questions.” he smiled, his mood lightening with the fact he would soon get to see Rebekah and Tristan 

The words seemed to settle Aurora's mind and she was suddenly on his arm, nails digging into skin.

Elijah swallowed the desire to sigh heavily as Klaus glared at her but stalked out forcing her and Aurora to follow.

At least Klaus was above pulling on his arms now, having outgrown as a teenager or Elijah felt like he'd be truly stuck in the middle of them.

He didn't look back, Tristan knew better than to harm Freya and Freya wouldn't kill Tristan, she wanted her family together as much as Elijah did to endanger it.

—

Tristan sighed as the door closed leaving him at the dinning table with Freya standing across from him as she smiled at him.

It was false, more to hide her urge to bare her teeth and snarl.

Burning rage and the want to hurt hidden behind the petty image.

It was a smile he was very familiar with, it was Elijah's.

Tristan could truly see the family resemblance, he had a feeling he wasn't going to enjoy what was to come.

[legaciescrybaby]

Anyway, Elijah and Tristan definitely fucked. That's it, that's the post.

62 - To Getting Rebekah Back

Part 63

Gemini Runaway

Tag list ask to be added @icefrye19 @secretdreamlandmentality

Dragging Aurora's limp body into a room of the Mikealson's compound I threw her against the wall while we waited for her to come back. Flipping my hair out of my face I scoffed leaning against the wall. "I don't see why we can't just do a mind dive on her like Klaus did with me when I was still a witch."

Freya began burning some sage in a circle in the middle of the room. "I'm shocked you're thinking about the safer option. A few minutes ago you wanted to kill her."

"Oh please. She's annoying me enough where I still want to kill her." Snapping my gaze downward to her slumping my shoulders. "But she's the only one who knows where Bex is."

She nodded her head seeing that she was waking up. "Took you long enough."

"Oh, are we to play a fun game?" Aurora asked, lifting her head up.

Freya burned some more sage around her. "Actually, yes, and now that my spell has made it so that no one can hear what happens…"

"Cause in case you missed it we're gonna have a lot of fun." Bending my knees I grabbed her chin in my nails flashing my fangs.

Aurora smiled up at me. "Raelyn, how I wish I could adore your flair. I can't forget the fact that you gave him what I couldn't."

"Ohh well I can rub it in your face after you tell us where Bex is." I wined releasing her chin from my hand.

Aurora made a nose looking at Freya now. "Oh, ok, so then what, pray tell, are we doing here?"

"I think I'll leave my sister in law to tell you what's next." She sat the sage down when I rose to my feet.

Crossing my arms over my chest I smirked wickedly at the vampire girl. "You're gonna tell us where to find Rebekah, or we're going to kill you."

Aurora made a disappointing face. "Oh. Hmm."

Raising my hand up I snapped my fingers drawing her up to me holding her by her throat. "Where's my sister in law?"

"Not telling." She snapped.

"Ah sha lana!" I responded where she grabbed her head falling on the ground.

"Still…not…telling." She groaned.

Turning on my heels I launched one hand forward, breaking her legs together at once. "Tenebris lapsus!"

Aurora fell on the ground but she began laughing where Freya stepped up, beginning spells of her own on her. She launched her around the room like a rag doll for hours. Until she landed against the dresser panting. "Uh!...Is that the best you've got?"

"Until I can kill you yes!" Baring my teeth together in frustration I clutched my hands into fists causing some fire in one hand. "Incendia! I'm gonna ask you again... where is Rebekah?"

She smirked, rising to her feet before Freya snapped her fingers causing her entire body to feel pain. "You're quite strong for an infant."

Vamping up to her I punched her across the face. Aurora ran towards me where we went back and forth hitting one another until I slammed her against the wall. “Ah! Uh... Uh... Uh! Ah! Uh! Uh! Ah! Agh! Oh! Rrgh! Ha! Ah! Uh! Huh!”

Freya clutched her hand forward causing the red head to hold her head yelling in pain for a few minutes. “Whoo! Ha ha ha! That actually hurt. Ha ha! Oh, I haven't felt pain since the 1700s... kind of tickles... and for that, I'm gonna make you suffer.”

“No you’re not actually.” I grabbed her by her shoulders siphoning from her.

She winced sharply. “Huh! Agh!”

"How about a werewolf bite, you psychotic, little bitch? Cause I know someone who doesn't have a relationship with you. Motus !" Growling in her ear I released her into the wall.

Aurora smirked where I wanted to snap her neck right then. “By all means if only I can laugh in your face when Nik heals me.”

Freya glanced at my direction growling through her labored breath. “Maybe Klaus would heal you, but I doubt he would heal your brother. Why don't you have your werewolf Hayley bite him instead?”

I smiled at the red head. “Hmm, that’s not a bad thought.”

Aurora threatened, crossing her arms over her chest proudly. “No one should dare harm my brother... Seeing as you're all going to need him if you want your precious Rebekah back.”

Our group was back in the dining room with Lucien clicking his tongue. “Longitude and latitude. Lovely.”

Tristan clinked his galls with his sister. “Well, despite our differences, I believe great strides were made today.”

Aurora smiled. “Hmm.”

Elijah made a threat sitting back down at the table. “Tristan, I can't murder you this very moment, but I could just as easily tear those eyeballs from your skull and feed them to your sister.”

Klaus warns him with me leaning against the armrest of his king chair. “Elijah, these are our guests.”

Aurora said back. “ Nik, it's so sweet of you to defend us.”

“Don’t get too comfortable with the idea!” I warned her by crossing my arms over my chest.

“You know, I doubted my brother's wisdom in bringing us all together today, but he was right. We must confront the harsh realities we all face and make difficult choices... To ensure our collective survival... And I have every confidence that my choice... Will be the right one.” Klaus got to his feet moving behind Tristian suddenly snapping his neck.

Aurora gasps at what he had done when he threatened her sternly. "Were you anyone else, the servants would already be mopping your blood from the floor. If you do not bring my sister home, Tristan will die slowly and in tremendous pain."

Aurora croaked through tears. “You betray me after all your promises of love.”

Nik raised his voice at her getting in her face threatening her to bring her home. “I meant to keep those promises! It was you who shattered them when you took Rebekah! Now I have your brother, a sibling for a sibling. I want Rebekah back.”

Aurora got in his face vamping away. “You will regret this. Huh!”

Freya asked him with me standing by her hip. “After everything today, you just let her go?”

Elijah reassured her. “Aurora should be easy enough to control. We have Tristan now.”

Klaus shifted closer to his vampire flashing his golden wolf eyes into his. “Lucien... You will take me to Camille, and you will surrender the medallion, or you will meet an end so cruel, the devil will weep.”

Stomping around the knocked out vampire I didn't bother wasting time vamping to his place. The elevator door opened quickly where I noticed that Cami was waiting outside holding a daylight ring. “Cami, we have to go now.”

“I took that vampire guy's daylight ring. He can’t get out until dark.” She told me to hold it up.

Taking her hand in I rushed us back to the elevator tapping my foot nervously until the door opened again and I gasped under my breath. "Aurora, shit!"

"Hello again, Raelyn." She smiled wickedly. "You must be Cami."

Cami's heartbeat began to race in our vampire ears. "Raelyn, what do we do?"

"Don't worry. I can take her!" I revealed my fangs and the veins under my fangs to her.

Aurora backed us into a corner when she revealed something from behind her back. In her hands was a stake and a vial of some liquid that I could only assume must be werewolves venom or something. "Oh on the contrary dear girl. You see she won't be getting the upper hand against me this time."

"What the hell are you going to do to me?" I growled shielding Cami with my body. "Leave Cami out of this."

The red head shook her head. "Sorry not an option. You see, I need her for my plan."

"Raelyn - uh!" Cami grunted when Aurora shoved a needle in her body to the floor.

I attempted to vamp at her but she pressed the tip of the stake over my heart. "Ah ah not so fast, darling. You might be a witch but I can still stake you and kill you with this."

"You really are a bitch. Why are you doing this?" I bared my teeth.

She leans forward. "Cause I won't let you keep my lover from me. Now either you come with me willingly or I kill Cami right now."

"Why you little -" I cut myself off when she moved the stake over her human heart in a taunting way. "Huh…fine."

Aurora grinned, dragging the blonde human towards the doorway. "Excellent."

"Dic mihi, hva du vet…" I mumbled praying that she didn't hear me do my mind spell before I followed her through the elevator. "Nik, please find us before Aurora kills me or Cami. We need you."

@readingrebloggingreliving as we talked about

This may be controversial but I think polyamory should be in tv shows and video games. I think there’s so many unexplored dynamics for romcom relationships and we simply deserve these kinds of stories.

At Night in New Orleans

Hello Hello,

welcome to a little OS with everybody's (my) favorite vampire: Lucien Castle!

In the next days, I'm also going to post another version of this story with the other girl's POV who's featured in this chapter and it's going to be reader x Kol, so be excited for that!

Let me know if you want to be tagged for that :)

"Looks like we have new guests, ladies.", Josh called from behind the bar, when suddenly a group of people entered the Rousseau's. Cami who was just cleaning up a table groaned, when she realized who of all people in New Orlean's came trotting in. Klaus looked at her with a smug grin before following his sudden best lad Lucien to the bar. The youngest of the Mikaelson brothers Kol took a great look around the room and then decided to strode over to the pool table, where a few guys were having a game and sharing some beers.  

Elijah, the oldest of the three brothers was accompanied by his little minion Tristan and his sister Aurora, who was holding her head held high as she followed them to one of the many tables.  

"Y/N, you'll do the bar with Josh, while Y/BFFs/N and I are taking the orders on the table.", she said to the Y/H/C young woman, who was just drawing two glasses of beer. Camille wasn't going to deal with Klaus tonight, and it seemed like the club was filling up, after the vampires had appeared.  

"You alright doing the bar, or do you want to switch?", Y/BFFs/N had asked her best friend, when she put down a tablet of dirty glasses and threw an annoyed look at Klaus and Lucien who were laughing audibly on their barstools, slamming their palms on the wood and throwing their head back in big motions. It seemed like they had already had their good amount of alcohol before they had arrived in here.  

"I'll be fine, but seems like someone wants something to drink very badly." Your best friend looked up and saw Kol Mikaelson waving at her with a devilish smirk on his lips. "Wish me luck.", she said, but rolled her eyes in annoyance, as she walked over to the pool table. 

Yes, luck was definitely what they needed with this load in here. Both Y/N and Y/BFFs/N were born in New Orleans, so that the city being inhabited by vampires wasn't a big secret to them. 

Though finding out that their high school friend Josh had been turned had been a little shock to them, but in the end, it hadn't changed their friendship a bit, it might have even made it a little stronger.  

The girl handed beer to the couple in front of her, before moving her attention to the new guests. She realized that Klaus had the decency to serve himself a bottle of vodka, from behind the bar together with two glasses. He poured himself one shot after another, laughing and yelling the lyrics to the music that was playing in the bar. Y/N ignored his outrageous behavior, acted like she hadn't seen him nicking that bottle and walked over to them.  

"Hey, can I get you anything?" She knew Cami had told her to always act polite, no matter how much 'you want to punch their faces into a wall', but Y/N had to try very hard.  

"Hello sweetheart, you don't mind me serving myself a little, do you?" 

"Not at all.", she smiled at him with a put-on smile, "As long as you pay." Klaus only laughed at that and lifted his glass to poor his drink, as to say 'cheer to that.', but the young woman had her attention on his friend. She didn't know much about him, only that he was Klaus' friend and a lot of trouble -which wasn't any surprise to her. But Lucien had stopped bellowing to the music with his companion - not that the Original had realized, being way too self-centered to notice anything but himself - instead he was hanging halfway over his stool, looking towards the table, Elijah was sitting with Tristan and his sister.  

Y/N looked him up and down for a second. He was dressed in black pants and a black button down, his dark brown hair was slightly disheveled - probably the drunken state of them, though she had to admit he looked rather handsome with those full lips and these sunken hazel eyes, which were digging into the back of Aurora's head.  

"Excuse me, can I get you anything.", she asked him as well, hoping he'd just ignore her so she could finally move on, but of course with his vampire senses Lucien was easily hearing everything she did down to her heartbeat, so when he turned around and her heart was suddenly beating faster than she had anticipated, Lucien gave her one of his most dashing smiles. "Yes, darling?"  

He looked even more attractive up front, she thought to herself and almost forgot to take a breath.  

"Can I get anything for you?", she tried to sound professional, but the slight stutter in her voice was barely able to be hidden.  

"Whiskey, no ice. And please excuse my friend, he has no manners.", he pointed at Klaus, and Y/N wanted to hit herself for the chuckle that had escaped her.  

Said turned his attention towards their conversation: "No manners? I recall I had learned the complexity of manners before you were even born." "Sure.", Lucien said, but didn't move his gaze from her as she left to get his drink done and winked at her with a smirk, which turned her cheeks a little warmer.  

Trouble, Y/N. Nothing but trouble. 

"What's your name, love?", he just called over the bar table, chuckling and leaned back in his chair, when she came back to give him his drink.  

"None of your business.", she smiled politely and turned around, ready to stalk off. "Well, it's just fair, seeing that you seem to know mine." He raised an eyebrow provokingly, waiting for her to move her attention back to him.  

For a slight second Y/N was fighting with herself. Stop flirting. This will only get you in trouble. But the handsome vampire seemed to be down to play with fire and why not have some fun, when it's just so easily granted.  

She smiled: "Lucien Castle, I suppose it is." 

Said grinned and leaned forward: "One and only, darling." 

"I have heard from you, but it's such a pity you haven't heard from me." 

She grabbed the empty bottle Klaus had slammed back on the table without even looking at them. "Well then make me interested in getting to hear from you." 

Lucien rested his arm onto the bar propping up his upper body, but Y/N only chuckled and walked away with the words: "Something's telling me you already are." 

While she was serving other guests and cleaning up the counter, Lucien hadn't moved his gaze from her. Always a smirk on his lips, when she rolled her eyes at one of the customers. 

He had stopped paying attention to Aurora, who was still sitting at the table, rather bored, while her brother and Elijah were catching up on old time.  

"Hey, Y/N, could you just clean those classes for me, a big group of people just came in and want to order? You're an angel.", Josh said thankful as he walked over to her and put four empty beet glasses down.  

"Sure, no problem." She grabbed them and walked over to the sink turning on the water. She could still feel Lucien's eyes fixed on the back of her head, but she was trying her hardest to ignore him. Scraping the glasses clean, she turned her attention to the opposite direction from where he was sitting, watched Josh serving the new customers who had just arrived. How much she wished she could switch with him right now and wouldn’t have to deal with such an obnoxious asshole. Slightly frustrated she reached for the next glass, but her luck wasn't on her side and her soap covered fingers lost the hold on it, which send it flying into the water filled sink with a big splash. In seconds her white blouse was soaking wet and she groaned annoyed, when she heard the chuckle coming from the counter. 

"Need some help there darling?" The girl's cheeks flushed at his words and threw a look towards her blouse, which was now transparent in the light, making her white bra visible. Great. 

Ignoring his words she stormed into the kitchen, knowing that she always had a spare shirt in her locker. 

She hurried with getting the new blouse, knowing that guests were waiting outside. But as she had just unbuttoned the wet one, the door to the kitchen was pushed open in speed and Lucien was standing in front of her. 

"Hey, Y/N.", he smirked and she heard, how his voice turned darker at the mentioning of her name. And gosh, it made her knees go week.  

"You're not allowed to be back here!", she was angry, pulling her shirt over her bra quickly, but secretly knowing it was no use. 

"Oh? Is that so?", Lucien didn't lose his slightness, instead he came closer, invading her personal space, until her back was pressed against the kitchen counter.  

"So, pretty.", he grinned.  

Y/N wanted to push him away, but with his vampire senses he was faster and grabbed for her wrists.  

"Ah. Ah. Ah. Behave sweetheart, we don't want to cause any attention here, now do we?"  

Despite her wanting to get away from him a second ago, she suddenly was feeling like his words made more sense and she nodded in agreement, dropping her arms to her side. 

"Good girl. Now listen to me. You'll meet me outside the bar after your shift is over, okay? In that alley to the left. You won't make a sound and I promise you, we'll have some fun tonight." She nodded again. Why not? It sounded like a lot of fun and he was handsome, she couldn't deny that. His green eyes were still looking deeply into hers, when he said his last words before disappearing: "Now, go back to work and forget that I was in here. I'll see you after your shift, Y/N."  

The warm summer night breeze hit Y/N, when she made her way out of Rousseau's. Normally she'd go straight home after such an exhausting night, ready to hit the sheets. But not tonight. Her legs automatically walked her towards the dark passage next to the bar and despite the creepy vibe it was sending, Y/N didn't think twice to enter it, when she saw someone leaning against the prick wall.  

"Oh, hello darling. It is so wonderful of you to join me.", a grin spread over Lucien's entire face as he draped his arm around her waist pulling her closer. Y/N chuckled uncomfortably: "Yes, I was actually rather exhausted tonight, but I'm glad I changed my mind and came to see you."  

"That's a good girl. Now do me a favor, don't scream." And before she had the chance to ask what was going on, Lucien had pressed her against the wall and a sharp pain was suddenly piercing through her body. She wanted to push Lucien away, but he had grabbed her wrists placing them over her head, his other hand was pressed firmly against her abdomen, so she wouldn't move. Y/N wanted to scream for help but someone her tongue felt like it was tight into a knot every time she opened her mouth. The vampire's mouth was sucking on the nape of her neck, his razor-sharp teeth were digging into the soft skin. She could feel the blood leaving her system, but all she was able to do was whimper, hoping he would stop.  

A last try she opened her mouth again and whispered: "Please...I don't want to die.", and like she had pulled a plug, the man let go of her neck.  

"Oh, darling. I wasn't going to kill you. I told you we were going to have some fun." The corner of his lip was covered in blood and Lucien took a handkerchief from his pocket wiping it away. As he did so, Y/N took the chance to get away from him. "Na, don't run away love. We haven't even started." He reached for her wrist and pulled her towards his chest again. Once again, her Y/E/C eyes met his green ones.  

"Don't be scared of me." Five simple words, but they suddenly meant so much to her and she felt how she relaxed in his arms. He's right, what should she be scared about, the blood slowly running down her neck. Like a mechanism her hand rushed to her neck, but before she could touch the skin Lucien had gripped her hand to stop her. "Here love, drink this, to stop the bleeding."  

She could see the white of his eyes turning red and blood vessels appearing under them, as he bit into his lower arm. A stream of red blood was running down, dripping to the floor and without thinking twice the young woman took the arm and began to suck the blood from the wound.  

"Just like that, darling." She could feel the numbing pain from her neck disappear and her skin slowly grow back. 

"Now come with me."

Hey! Read you are taking requests for king!eddie. Super happy about that. Was wondering if you could write about Eddie seeing his Queen play with children, maybe they visit a orphanage, and wanting to give her that joy in her life. But talking about it with her, Eddie confesses how he doesn't think he will be a good father, since his father was't either, and his Queen reassuring him. It could end with smut, but I leave that up to you 🙏❤️

Love The Way You Do | EDDIE MUNSON First and foremost, I am sorry for not updating this sooner. Unfortunately, life happens lol, and to be honest, I had written at least 1K words before deciding it wasn't good enough and deleted it in order to write something else. I hope you cherish it and that it meets your expectations. I truly loved this idea.

BIG MASTERLIST

"You are incredibly talented." Eddie's soft fingertips glided across worn and tattered pages, his attention drawn to the wonderful artwork that appeared to be highly realistic. "This is seriously incredible, Tristan." His gaze was reluctant to divert away from the exquisite paintings, but his words were honest, and he wanted the teenager to grasp his true feelings. 

Tristan, who sat next to Eddie, grinned, his cheeks flushing as he bowed his head, hands between his legs, an act of shyness. "When I get out of here, I want to be a painter." He was about to turn eighteen, which meant he'd be allowed to leave the orphanage. Eddie, on the other hand, made certain that if someone needed to remain for a longer period of time, they could. "If I can." He sighed, looking down at his most prized notepad, which was on Eddie's knees. 

"Are you unsure whether or not you want to be a painter?" Eddie creased his brows. 

Tristan's head was instantly shaken. "I'm pretty sure I want to be a painter. It's my passion." The glint in his eyes vanished with his next words. "But I'm not sure if I'll ever be able to be one."

Eddie nodded his head, visibly pondering. "Well," His fingertips glided over the sketch of what appeared to be Aurora, one of the orphanage's girls. One that Tristan appeared to paint a lot, giving Eddie the impression that he liked her. "It won't be easy." He winced at the sound of his own words. He didn't want to lie to him or imply that life was simple. "However, I believe that if you dream big and work big, you will be big." Tristan didn't appear completely convinced, but he agreed, feeling a little more optimistic about his future.

"I will work tirelessly."

Eddie smiled at him, returning his gaze to the sketches sitting on his knees, and his fingers proceeded to trawl through the works he hadn't had time to look at. "This." His breath became trapped in his chest. 

"The queen," Tristan responded sheepishly.

"I know," he chuckled, his fingers longing to caress her face but not wanting to ruin the sketch. "Even in the darkest of rooms, I'd recognise her." His heart burned, and sensations of love tingled every part of his body. 

The artwork depicted her gorgeous grin as she waved through the carriage window on the day he revealed her as their future queen. He flushed as he recalled what had transpired between them minutes earlier. 

"It was the very first time we saw her." Eddie nodded without looking away. "She appeared kind, and I couldn't help but draw her." He waited for a few seconds, watching King Eddie's expression as he stared at a simple sketch of her. "She is kind." Both looked up as soon as those words were pronounced.

Eddie sighed, his gaze wandering over his wife's form. Her grin was wider than the one in Trsitan's sketch, and she had no worry in the world as she kneeled on the ground, surrounded by some of the orphanage's young children, who gazed at her with sparkling eyes and flushed cheeks. 

As she kneeled on the ground, his queen, but more importantly, his wife, was unconcerned about her new gorgeous gown. She had spent hours playing with the kids, while he had paid more attention to the older ones, who understood their predicament best. 

He chuckled. She had been anxious about meeting them, considering Eddie was heavily involved with the orphanage.

Eddie's initial move after assuming the throne was to visit the orphanage in his kingdom. He had discovered deplorable working conditions and treatment, and he had fired those who did not deserve to work with the younger generation, instead employing those who had proven to be pleasant souls. Then he used a portion of his nation's financial system to rebuild and expand the orphanage. He additionally made certain that the youngsters had all they needed. As a result, you were concerned about not being accepted by the children since you knew they adored Eddie, who interacted with them as if he were a child and spoke to them as if they were grownups.

Nonetheless, your husband had no doubts that you would be adored by all of the children, from the youngest to the eldest.

You'd played 'Save the Queen' with them, then 'tea time,' pretending to drink nothing and eat sand. The kids adored the fact that you played in the same fashion as they did. 

They sat on the ground around you now, listening to you read them a story. Some leaned against you, asleep, while others paid intent attention with eager eyes and thumbs inserted in their mouths as they sucked on them. 

Eddie's heart quivered as he saw your right hand clutching the book and your left hand cradling a toddler against you.

"Will you..." Tristan paused. "Would you like to have children, my King?"

Those words were so innocent, but so frightening for Eddie as the image of an individual he had buried deep inside himself flared in his mind. Did he desire children? The true question was not whether he wanted children or not, but whether he should have children. "I think I understand." Tristan kept on speaking, given that Eddie hadn't replied. "If I ever marry and have children." His glance travelled in the direction of Aurora, confirming Eddie's previous thoughts. "I'd be afraid of becoming like my father."

Tristan was one of the children who had lived with his father before being abandoned. 

Eddie was well aware that the man in question had carried out atrocities, and that the youngster seated next to him had endured the emotional and physical effects of having a violent father. Eddie couldn't help but tighten his fists whenever he identified his anxieties or the evident limp in his gait.

"Did your dad know how to paint?" Eddie inquired at random. Tristan raised his brows for a split second, perplexed by the shift in subject, but swiftly shook his head. "If you were different in that aspect, why wouldn't you be different in that one?" He took a peek at him. 

"If you're such an outstanding king, why wouldn't you be a wonderful father?"

Eddie was now bewildered since Tristan had used the same logic he had used on him. "Tristan." When he overheard his name, the boy gave a nod. "When will you be 18?"

"Next month."

"Perhaps you'd like to be the royal painter of the palace?" His mouth was gaping as he gazed at Eddie with wide green eyes. "You would be the one doing every portrait for the royal family, and you will be offered a very good place to live with your..." He cast a peek toward Aurora before returning his gaze to Tristan. "Your future family. You'll get compensated, of course, and I'll do all I can to get you professionally taught so you can learn more." Tristan nodded his head rapidly. "Great." Eddie grinned, snatching a pen from Tristan's fingers and writing a directive on a blank piece of paper. "As soon as you reach the age of 18, write a letter to Dustin. He is one of my devoted peers, and he will notify me that you have written to him." He returned the drawings and the paper. "I will send a carriage for you as soon as I receive such a letter." He smiled as his hand rested on the kid's back.

Eddie had been fairly quiet on the trip home, and he remained mute even while you recalled your greatest highlights of the day. His gaze looked lost, and he appeared to be deep in contemplation as he changed his clothing, slowly undressing, eager for the day to end the moment he went under the sheets of your shared bed. 

"Eddie?" He hummed. His back was against the bed's headboard, and his arms were draped over the sheet that covered his naked chest. "Are you feeling okay?"

"Hmm?" His gaze shifted to his side when he noticed you donning one of your nightgowns and grabbing a corner of the sheet to get into bed. "Did you say something, sweetheart?"

Eddie would often turn on his side and gaze at you as soon as you climbed into bed, but he didn't this time. "Eddie." Your voice was barely audible, accompanied by a grimace. "What thoughts are you lost in?" 

His gaze met yours for the first time in hours. He didn't look at you. He saw you. 

"Today," he said as he took a big breath. As he took a deep breath and closed his eyes, his hands flew to his head, fingers digging holes into his temples. "You looked breathtaking with the kids today." When he finally looked your way, he noticed your perplexed countenance. "You were filled with joy, and you seemed so natural holding that little girl." His face lit up with a smile. "They loved you, and you loved them."

"Is that...bad?" 

Eddie chuckled and shook his head. "No, not at all." His right hand brushed your cheek. "It made my heart ache peculiarly, and I found myself wanting to have children with you." You found yourself crying as you grinned at his remarks. "I want little yous and little mes running around this palace giggling, but..."

"But what?"

A quivering sigh exited his body, sending shivers down your spine. "I have no idea what a good father is supposed to be like, and I don't want to bring children into this world if their worst enemy is the person who should always have their back."

"My love." You sat down, acknowledging his concerns and allowing him to place his head against your chest and tummy. "You are not going to be like your father." You could feel his chest heave as he inhaled deeply to speak, but you didn't allow him. "I have proof that you will be a fantastic dad." Your fingers were entwined with his locks. "The way in which you treat Dustin and the others? How you are so involved with the children at the orphanage, and how much you care about everyone?" As you spoke about him, his head tilted upward, attempting to gaze at you. "You played with the kids, talked to the older ones, and played with them too." The pride in your voice as you mentioned him. "You looked very handsome and caring while feeding Lily." Your eyes sparkled. Lily, a one-year-old, appeared to be entirely in love with Eddie, her eyes shining as she only relaxed in his arms. "You were fantastic with them, Eddie. And, while I didn't know your father personally, I know he didn't love the way you do. He didn't have a single ounce of affection in him. However, you," Your hands gripped both of his cheeks, forcing him to stare at you. "King Edward Munson, you are all love."

"You think so?"

"I know so."

"Do you want to have children with me? Children we will absolutely love and protect?" You nodded, your eyes welling up. "Fuck." As he rose from your breasts and abdomen, he drew a big breath and blinked swiftly. "Are you sure you're serious?"

"I wouldn't say yes if I wasn't serious, Eddie." He nodded, his gaze shifting from yours to your lips. "Children come with a lot of responsibility."

Eddie's eyes darkened as he sat on the bed, his stare fixed on you. Your brow wrinkled, perplexed by his solemn gaze. As his hands held your legs, you fell fully on your back, your head resting against the mattress rather than the pillow. "Eddie? What?" You were stunned by his behaviour and had your eyes wide open. His curls vanished beneath your nightgown and between your legs. As his warm breath stroked your sensitive skin, his fingertips rubbed on the flesh of your thighs. "What exactly are you doing?" A chill ran through your body, and an unsteady breath became trapped in your chest. He did not respond to your query, though, as he planted a light kiss on the center of your core. "Eddie." A cry emerged from between your lips, and the heat threatened to overpower you as you pushed up your nightgown, wanting, yearning to see the magnificent sight of him between your legs. Yet another kiss. This one was longer and filthier as he sniffed your mound with his nose.

"I really want you." He grumbled, his big eyes fixed on you. "I need you." His fingers tightened around the band of your underwear, and he truly needed you since he ripped it instead of pulling it down. "I want you to be stuffed full of my cum." Your entire body began to tremble, and you became flushed as a result of your body's reaction to him, whether it was his words, a touch, or merely a look. "And I want your tummy with my baby inside it." Your teeth bit down on your lower lip, followed by a gasp. "I can't even stand it. I'm sorry, but I can't worship your body for hours like I normally do." A squeeze on the inside of your thighs. 

"I can't because coming in my pants without even being touched by your hands would embarrass me." Your fingers discovered their favourite hiding place: entwined between his curls. "So I'm just going to be inside you until we both fall apart, and then I'm going to fall asleep while softly sucking you right here." His fingers massaged your slit, which was already moist. "Like an adorable baby." His gleaming eyes met yours. "Is that okay with you, sweetheart?" You swiftly nodded your head. "Words."

"I want to have children with you, Eddie. I want to teach them what it's like to be loved and to be as compassionate as you are. More people like you are needed in the world." 

Several minutes went by in a haze. A haze of naked bodies, heated breaths, stray hands, and wet lips. You couldn't stop yourselves, and there was no time for nice words or any other form of preparation. There was no need.

As soon as he received confirmation, his head pushed your slit open, and both of you groaned in delight since you both felt at home with each other. 

"You are soft and tight at the same time. How is that even possible?" His hips didn't move as swiftly as in previous times, but his thrusts were mighty, his testicles smacking against the fluid dripping to your bottom. "I can't wait to fill you all up." Your pleas were frantic. Eddie made you feel as though you were losing your mind and about to pass out. "I can't wait for your stomach to round out." His hands moved from your breasts to your stomach. It was excruciatingly uncomfortable to have the nightgown pulled up under your chin, but you both have been impatient, not being able to entirely undress. "I want to feel the changes in your physique. I'm curious to see how your breasts grow in size." His thrusts emphasised every one of his claims. 

"I won't last much longer." It hadn't been long since you both started, yet there was a desire, a passion, and an awful sensation of being too far apart. Your wrapped legs around his waist sought to force him farther inside as if he could get closer to you. "Please, Eddie. "Fill me up."

His cock jolted within you twice, his balls tightening as he inhaled deeply or gasped. "Fuck, I will, baby." His left hand ran down your body, thumb pressing against your clit, and you were coming undone before he could circle it, Eddie doing so first. It was his warm jets of cum that finally pushed you over the brink. 

"Oh, my lord."

"Just your King, sweetheart." He continued thrusting you both to the utmost degree of pleasure possible while kissing your forehead. "I hope you're ready for more, sweetheart, because I'm not going to stop until you are with child."

‘ G o r g e o u s ’

Tristan De Martel x ImmortalWitch!Reader .

“ I’m not stupid, Y/N. I know that you’re in love with my brother. ” Aurora says with a playful smirk.

I sigh, staring blankly up at the art that littered the ceiling of the newest Strix mansion.

“ It doesn’t matter, Aurora. He’ll only ever see me as a colleague. He’s made it more than clear. ”

“ Don’t be so sure. He doesn’t keep just anyone around this long. ” She replies with a wink, her lavish accent shining through.

I lift my glass of bourbon to my crimson red painted lips, quickly guzzling the overpowering liquid.

“ Whatever. ” I say with a sigh, trying to appear nonchalant. “ Let’s talk about something else. Have you picked a gown yet for the next gala? ”

“ Not yet, should we make a trip to the city this weekend? surely my elder brother can excuse you for a few hours. ” she purrs, smiling.

“ I’m sure that can be arranged! ” I smile, straightening my charcoal mini skirt.

I see aurora glance at the door, instantly knowing who it is. I turn to see none other than Tristan De Martel, so magnetic it was almost obnoxious.

Walking towards Aurora and I. She stands to greet him, wrapping her arms around his taller frame as I stand there, trying not to stare.

“ Y/N, darling im glad you could make it! I assumed you’d be arriving Monday, along with Aya. ” He says, angelic in the way his raspy voice echoes off the walls as he ever so gently grabs my hand, kissing the back.

“ Well, I figured i’d surprise you. ” I say with a smile, before he starts talking with the lovely Aurora.

A true work of art in his black pea coat, fragrant of luxurious vanilla cologne and foreign cigars.

“ Can I make you a drink, Tristan? ” I offer, tucking a lose strand of hair behind my ear.

“ Yes, please. Thank you sweetheart. ” He purrs, smiling in my direction before continuing his conversation with his younger sister.

I walk over to the large, fully stocked bar, grabbing a clean glass and a fresh bottle of scotch. Aurora was right, I am *so* whipped. A faux sense of hope washes over me, as I can’t help but think about what it would be like to be loved by the Strix leader.

But alas, i’m not. To him, im just another person who runs around doing his bidding.

But a girl can dream, right ?

DAY 1: vocal chords

A rather late start for @febuwhump, my second year and yet RL is fighting me, sadly this weak I lost my living inspiration for 'Familiar faces'' Lucifer, due to old age.

So here's day one of Febuwhump

To start this month we back to Caged Founder

----

Elijah had always been talented with his words and alongside his ability to find a weak point, it was both a useful weapon and a habit that left him in trouble.

Normally with his siblings the latter was easily dealt with due to their own bad habits, alone it was solely his problem.

Like the last time he had seen his father, he had used his words to stoke his anger and disappointment into a rage that equaled his hatred for Niklaus to keep him from leaving Elijah’s trail to hunt down his sibling.

“-The bastard!” Father had snarled, once again trying to convince him to give up on his brother

“At least he’s free of the stain your blood leaves on me.” he had replied sharply and had a moment to see Father flinch back as the words hit him, before the flicker of hurt in his father’s eyes vanished and Elijah barely managed to escape the temper he had inspired and the burning building, shoulder burning on its own from the white oak stake.

He should have felt something more when he had done it but Elijah’s love for his father had died long ago and any lingering want for the man’s attention was ash along with his city and Marcellus. 

Instead Elijah had been annoyed at himself for not managing to get away with the stake, he hadn't had much time to dwell on either issue as in the next town waiting for father to catch up he had been met by Aya and her short lived army.

Which led him where he was currently, once again dealing with the aftermath of carefully chosen words to hurt.

The ribbon around his throat hidden under his shirt was enchanted to freeze his vocal cords leaving him mute, truly he blames Tristan's ability to shoot his month about Elijah’s sensitive subjects but not to take any returning shots .

Ten years ago Tristan would have gotten his revenge, attempted to teach him a lesson in a far simpler way, torture then an an attempt to humble him and remind him of his place.

But Tristan’s attempts were always mixed with his clear desire for an equal relationship, impossibly given Tristan’s control issues and Elijah- well he was aware of his own issues.

The change he laid completely at Aurora’s feet, he had been fine with the mostly clear line of captor and captive.

He ignores the fact he knows he’s lying to himself, after all if it had been clear he wouldn’t have had multiple breakdowns and needed Tristan and Aya to draw him back out of his spiraling depression.

Meaning now Tristan was always trying something new, so Elijah was stripped of his words and dragged along to this ball, to celebrate the new millennium.

It wasn't a formal Strix Gala that was arranged in a month's time, where Elijah was now an almost equal leader, quite a change from his early years as an open captive.

This was a front, a mix of wealthy humans and business owners they dealt with the Strix, so most of those there tonight weren't aware of who they really were and would be under the impression of their recent human covers.  

An almost normal public date between the three of them, as much as they could with modern human sensibilities.

Tristan De Martel, his business partner Elijah Michels and his wife Aurora De Martel.

Something he’s sure Tristan arranged to spite Lucien.

Elijah raised an eyebrow at Tristan across the limo as he noticed him eyeing the ring on Elijah’s hand with envy, he looked away, it was always a comforting reminder to see how much power he had over the other even now. Tristan De Martel was far easier to read than he liked to think.

"I don’t have a heart," the count’s son had whispered in his ear a thousand years ago, before biting his earlobe when Elijah had chuckled at his misguided pride in the words, as if Aurora wasn’t living proof of the falseness of the claim.

Aurora pulled his attention from him as she adjusted his earrings, he still failed to understand how he had allowed her to talk him into That the first place but he had found things far easier to blame her over the years as she clawed her way into his affection, something she always took with pride.

Aurora was mostly immune to his words unlike Tristan, but Aurora played her own games so it took a little more work out what she wanted, and whether it was in his interest to play with her or against. 

He’s pulled from his thoughts by the tip of a nail tracing his throat to blink down at Aurora. She smiled once she saw she had his attention.

“So if anyone asks your suffering from Laryngitis.” she tells him with a smile

He gives her a flat look.

“Oh right you can’t!” she says with mock realisation “You’ll just have to stay on my arm like a nice trophy husband.” she beams, patting him on the arm.

He sends Tristan a look, they both know Aurora will get distracted at some point and vanish, like every time before, Tristan ignores his look to give her a smile and Elijah frowns as he quickly works out that was Tristan’s plan, he was hoping after Aurora disappearance he would forced to return to Tristan’s side like a ‘like a nice trophy husband’ indeed.

Elijah smiles as the car slows down, he slips Aurora’s phone from her purse before they even get into the venue, honestly it's almost like Trista was under estimating him.

Modern technology did make a voice unnecessary.

I know we talk how all Mikaelsons has the best chemistry with each other, but let's face reality, they were the incestuous siblings. Like, it was there. They even had a kiss that was cut out of the episode.

61 - A Mikaelson Thanksgiving

Part 62

Gemini Runaway

Tag list ask to be added @icefrye19 @secretdreamlandmentality

Moving my head to the side of a pillow that I could feel underneath my head I moaned. Blinking my eyes open I saw someone staring at me that was a blurry figure until they spoke to me. "I was beginning to think that witch knocked the daylights out of you."

"Klaus…how do you know about that?" I asked shifting my body upright on the pillows.

He lifted his gaze upward to meet my tired eyes. “Freya told me that you two went to find Rebekah. But she lost the way to bring Kol back. That’s nothing we need to worry about now though.”

“Then what do we worry about exactly?” I questioned hugging my legs to my chest.

He moved his right hand forward placing his palm over my hand twirling my wedding ring. “You seem to have misunderstood my feelings towards Aurora. I’m here to try and change that. Cause I can’t take anymore time where you won’t talk to me.”

“Nik, I don’t want to hear this right now. If you want to be with your old flame then go. I remember the feeling when I thought I was never going to see you again. The terror and relief all mixed together and built up inside you. Where you just have to let it all snap-“

He covered my mouth with his hand shutting me up resting his forehead against mine. “Sssh my beautiful love. Aurora may be an old flame but she is nothing compared to you. She never brought out the light in me like you do.”

“Klaus, stop-“ He held a finger over my mouth making me actually listen to what he was saying.

“No Raelyn you need to hear me out even if for a second. You have given me everything I never thought was open to having. You are there to bring out the light in me that I thought was gone. You are my heart and soul. You are the part of me that is human.”

Drawing my head back I covered my mouth with my hands giggling through happy tears. “Klaus, okay. I believe you.”

“No I don’t think you do, Rae. It wouldn’t be enough to tell you how much you have changed me. Not in a century, not in a thousand years or even an eternity with you will ever be enough.” He intertwined both my hands with his bringing my left hand to kiss the palm. “Aurora, isn’t the woman sitting in front of me. Aurora, isn’t the woman I proposed to with her grandmother's ring. And Aurora, most certainly isn’t the amazing mother who gave me my extraordinary children. That was all you Raelyn Primrose Lane. It will only ever be you by my side for eternity.”

I moved forward, crashing my lips onto his wrapping my arms around his neck instantly. He moaned into the kiss running one hand into my hair and the other falling onto my back. He gently pushed me onto my back on the mattress breaking the kiss with us both panting. “I love you, Niklaus Mikaelson.”

“And I you, Raelyn Mikaelson.” He nuzzled his nose against mine planting a kiss there smiling the biggest smile I had ever seen. “Just for the future if you ever doubt who holds my heart just ask. And I will be sure to show you just how worthy you are to me.”

Someone came up the stairs knocking on the door before we could go back to having a heated make out session. “Niklaus, our guests are arriving.”

“Guests, what are you up to now?” I questioned when we both sat up and I noticed a light blue dress hanging in the closet with some tan flats for me.

He offered me his hand tugging me up to stand when he kissed the crown of my head vamping out of the room. “My brother and I are going to attempt to get Rebekah back home. I’ll meet you downstairs, Rae.”

Lucien noticed someone new walking in with a thing of flowers, sitting them on the table. “Ah, flowers for me. You shouldn't have.”

The man looked in my direction when I slowly came down the long staircase. “That's for the lady of the house. The well-mannered bring a gift when invited to dinner. I assume you brought nothing.

Lucien clicked his tongue. “Nothing but my deepest respect for you….Raelyn, you are such a sight.”

Klaus entered the room holding out his hand for me when I reached the bottom of the stairs. “Lovely. We're all getting along. Tristian, I would like to introduce you to my queen, Raelyn.”

“Hi Tristian, I would say it’s a pleasure but you have my sister in law so…” I sniped tilting my head to the side with a smirk.

He nodded, lowering his hand once we had shaken hands. “We are all here to protect the person who sired us. We don’t have to be friends with everyone.”

Everyone of us sat down at the large table covered with food. Sitting down by Nik I moved my gaze to his vampire. “It's a bit odd, isn't it, celebrating an American holiday?”

Elijah tapped his fingers together. “Well, you know, Lucien, I rather enjoy Thanksgiving... the turkey, the cranberry sauce, the lies, the deceit, the betrayal. Perhaps we should begin this evening's proceedings with a little confession, and do help yourselves.”

Aurora who had came in the compound moments ago scolded. “So this entire dinner is meant to be some boorish inquisition. How rude.”

Klaus waved his hand at her. “Nonsense, luv. My brother merely wishes to make certain we're all on the same page, so who would like to begin?”

Tristan responded. “Well, Lucien and I have always loathed each other. Had we arrived as allies with news of a bleak future, you would have doubted us. We sought to remove suspicion by maintaining appearances.”

Lucien raised his hands up. “The bottom line is, we came to protect you and ourselves. We have never wavered on this point.”

Picking up a piece of turkey I shifted my gaze back to Nik’s vampire. “Well, if one wanted to obtain a certain item in, say, a private collection but one was not invited to the home where said private collection was located, police investigation could come in very handy to remove these items as evidence.”

Elijah put the pieces together himself. “I take it that you are referring to the medallion.”

Tristan looked at his red headed sister. “I suppose it was my sister who shared that bit of information.”

Klaus leaned back in his chair. “Don't blame Aurora. You two are hardly conspiratorial geniuses.”

Lucien chuckled looking from Nik then over to me. “Funny story... it turns out all along that the medallion was in the hands of Nik's friend Camille the bartender-slash-therapist. Had to get her arrested in order to search her goodies, so to speak, but I would never allow any harm to come to her, knowing the great affection you have for her….especially that she is Raelyn’s friend.”

Biting down on my turkey leg I moved my gaze feeling someone glaring at me. Locating that it was Aurora I felt nervous until Nik placed a hand on my knee drawing my gaze away. “A medallion that could lock us away hardly seems like a wise strategy for those come to protect us. Hand it over. And release Rebekah.”

Lucien glanced to her across the table. “Uh, just a tick. Aurora has Rebekah, hmm?”

Aurora smiled, leaning her elbows on the table. “No reason why I shouldn't be trusted with my sire's safety.”

Lucien added. “Of course, unless you were to have one of your episodes.”

Tristan shrugged his shoulders. “Easy, Lucien. My sister sought leverage to protect herself. Who among us would do otherwise?”

Elijah ran a hand over his chin in thought. “Niklaus, would you politely remind me why we shouldn't just compel them all to give us what we want?”

“You know that is a great question, Elijah.” Rising to my feet I slammed my palms on the table glaring at the other vampires. “I think that we can go far from compulsion don’t you. Considering these two have taken my sister in law hostage in who knows where. Oh and thus one nearly broke up our marriage making me think that I wasn’t the one for him.” Pointing my index finger at Aurora and holding my gaze on her brother.

Tristan moved his gaze around the table explaining what we all already knew. “Our continued existence depends on the Mikaelsons. We've known that since Finn and Kol died. Unfortunately, so does every other vampire in the world. Given that the sire lines have declared war against one another, you can imagine how many young upstarts have come to the same conclusion... kill an Original, wipe out an entire line of rivals. Heavy burden, isn't it, the lives of thousands of sired vampires resting on your shoulders? In a perfect world, you'd allow us to seal you away forever, thus eliminating the threat.”

Klaus put his hands together on the table. “Fortunately, the world is far from perfect.”

“And we have grown to enjoy such company of some. So how about we put every vampire who is concerned for their life inside a tomb of their own.” I smirked, taking back my seat beside Klaus who was smirking with his eyes going golden in a second.

Elijah sighs, picking up a glass of wine. “With all the nauseating dinner theater we've endured throughout the centuries, these performances are, by far, the worst. Aurora, my sister…”

My husband interrupted him. “Aurora is quite aware of our desire to see Rebekah home, and I'm sure she'll do everything in her power to oblige.”

Footsteps came into the room where we all saw Freya enter the dining hall. “We're welcoming our enemies to the dinner table now? Convenient, given she's the one who has the answers I want.”

Aurora rolls her eyes getting to her feet. “Oh, for heaven's sake, now I have to deal with the long-lost sister? Nik, please spare me your family's rage and paranoia. It is exactly this kind of lunacy which led me to steal Rebekah in the first place.”

Freya snarled. “What did you do with her?”

Aurora whipped her head around from us and back to Freya not regretting what she was telling our group. “Oh, I'm sorry, luv, but this prophecy has you all acting as fools, and I've no intention of risking my life to foolishness. Now, I can't trust Rebekah with any of you, and I certainly can't trust the silly dear to endure on her own, so I decided to put her someplace safe. Imagine a spot where no harm could come to her, where, in fact, no one could possibly even track her down. Yes. Rest assured, Rebekah is perfectly fine... at the bottom of the ocean.”

Klaus and I shared the same glare at the girl. “You're bluffing. Tell me you're bluffing.”

Aurora clasped her hand together. “Oh, you should all be thanking me. Rebekah's never been safer. She has plenty of company down there. There's all the little crabs and octopus and…”

Klaus got to his feet about to kill her until Tristian put a blade to Freya’s throat. “Harm my sister, and I'll be forced to return the favor.”

Elijah grabbed him and vamped him into the wall way from her. Lucien responded holding his glass. “Oh, this all escalated very quickly.”

Klaus pointed his index finger at his vampire threatening him. “Shut up, Lucien, or I'll tear your tongue from your head!”

Lucien pointed his finger at him still holding his glass in the same hand. “Be careful with your threats, Nik. Anything should happen to me, I won't be able to protect your precious Cami.”

“Ok. That is the second time I've heard her name. Just who is this Cami?” Aurora raised her voice

Jumping up to my feet I vamped forward holding Aurora by her throat showing her my fangs. “She’s my friend and my godmother of my daughters. So you do your best to remember that once I snap your neck bitch!”

Freya raised her hand using her magic to snap her neck for me. “You have bigger problems.”

Klaus threw his hands away from his side once I let her limp body drop from my nails. “Freya!”

Elijah drags Tristian back to the table putting him in a chair. “Niklaus... Which of these two vulgar parasites would you first like to torture?”

Klaus put his hands on Lucien’s shoulders glancing over to me, then whispering in his ear. “Well, it's half a dozen of one and 6 of the other, isn't it? Why don't you take the stable boy? Tristan and I are long overdue a good catch-up. Oh, if anything happens to Camille…”

Elijah tilts his head to the side finishing his brother’s sentence. “Oh, I'm quite certain Lucien's aware, devastating error.”

“Oh oh oh. I’ll call the bitchy redhead along with Freya.” I raised my hand like I was answering a question in kindergarten with a smirk on my face when I dropped my gaze down to the neck snapped vampire girl. “I think it’s time I try my hand at revenge with my humanity on wouldn’t you say, Nik?”

He moved away from his vampire tucking hair behind my ear that had fallen still smirking the same grin like me. “Indeed my queen. I suggest starting small. The fingernails or tounge.” I smirked knowing what happened next would be fun.
