Chapter Five - Dominance




                 

Hayley and I stood in the corner while they witches were talking, oh how witches annoyed me with their bullshit.

"Marcel and his vampires are out of control. Something had to be done" Sophie declared

"And the solution was to bring in more vampires?" Agnes asked

"These aren't just any vampires, Agnes. They're the Orginals"

"What makes you think you can control they hybrid?"

"she can't" i smiled as i looked over to see Elijah "not entirely certain I can either, but now that your coven has drawn us here, but i have a question. What prevents my brother or I from murdering you instead of cooperating?" Elijah wondered. Sophie got something and pricked her hand.

"Ow!" me and Hayley hissed looking out our hands. Except I didn't heal.

"Elijah I'm not healing" I said panicked

"what the hell?" Hayley asked

"The spell my sister performed, that got her killed. It didn't just confirm the pregnancy, it linked me to Hayley. Then I also linked myself to Bethany, so anything happens to me happens to them only Bethany can't heal herself. Which means their life is in my hands. Klaus may not care about his own child. But you care about your and it's clear that the other means something to you as well. If i have to hurt them or worse to ensure I have your attention I will."

"You would dare threaten an Original?"

"I have nothing to lose. You have until midnight to get Klaus to change his mind."

"If he's going to that he'll need some help" I sighed walking forward. "Two is better than one after all"

"You can't leave" Sophie denied.

"Do you want Nik's help or not. Look it's clear all the Orginals care about me, if you let me try then there is a higher chance you'll get what you want. It's up to you. have a more likely chance of Nik helping or you kill us and you won't win your fight." Sophie looked at everyone then nodded

We arrived at a party and both of us watched the altercation that Nik had with Marcel, Marcel on the other hand wasn't afraid well that was until Nik bit one of the vampire.

"Your friend will be dead by the weekend, I've broken one of your rules...yet I cannot be killed. I am truly immortal who has the power now..friend?" with that he left.

We stood outside somewhere private while Elijah talked to Rebekah.

"He's willing to give up everything" he told her

"Come on Elijah. Does that really surprise you?" she replied

"I can already see it. He's spiralling He's lashing out in blind rage. You know the last time I saw him like this was It lasted 200 years ."

"Then leave him to his temper tantrum and come home"

"We can't do that Bekah" I took the phone off Elijah. "The witches have me and Hayley hostage two babies growing inside of us. Hybrids that were born not turned. Besides me and Elijah could see it when he was listening to his baby's heartbeat. He was so close, he wanted it, he could almost taste happiness"

"Wait your pregnant"

"Not the point right now. " Elijah wanted the phone so i gave it back to him.

"Even if we were to return him to sanity he just lost Marcel's trust. I'm almost out of time to save my wife and the girl I need to get her."

"Get her I can understand Beth but the other one are we running an orphanage?"

"Say what you want about Niklaus but I'm not letting anything happen to my baby or his." he then hung up. I came up with an idea.

"I have an idea to buy more time" I told my husband

"how"

"Give the witches a peace offering, Sophie mentioned her sister Jane-Anne had died and i presume that Marcel has her. What if we bargain with Marcel to get the body back. He wants' his friend alive and if we are given more time we can convince Nik, get him on bored and cure the friend we all live and so on" he takes my face in my hands and kisses me.

"Have I told you how much i love you" I grin goofily.

"Not lately but I know. Now let's go make a deal with a protégé." We found Marcel in a closed bar talking on the phone

"You find him then you call me, don't worry I know how to deal with Klaus" he hangs up

"Is that so? Please elaborate"

"Elijah Mikaelson" his cronies stood up.

"No. I got it, It's all good" his eyes then drifted towards me

"I should have guessed beautiful girl who dresses prim and proper. Obviously she learnt it from her husband...Bethany so nice to see you again" I smiled faintly. Elijah sat down and brought me onto his lap. I crossed my legs and wrapped and arm around him.

"Well if you're going to talk, talk I have things to do." Marcel states

"My, my you have grown confident over the last century haven't you" Elijah replied

"Me I say it's you and your brother that have gotten cocky coming into my town like you own the place" I hissed at him showing my nature

"You'll have to excuse my wife she's very protective over us. Anyway we did own the place once" Elijah stroked my leg and I hummed in satisfaction. "We were all quite happy here as I recall, although we could never control those pesky witches at the French Quarter. How do you do it?" my teeth had retracted my eyes still glowed. Marcel sighed

"Your brother asked me the same question, I gave him the same answer: It's my business. Everything in the quarter is my business. Klaus comes into town all nice and friendly. Then he starts looking down his nose at what I done like it's some cheap knock off of one his dumb paintings. Then he get's pissed off like a little bitch and bites one of my guys" I a split second I let my emotions get the better of my and I have the washed out vampire against the wall.

"Like my husband said I'm very protective of them, if you want to insult my brother in law/ distant uncle I suggest you do not do it in my presence. You maybe the king of this town but I'm Alpha Female who like Nik cannot be killed. Do I make myself clear piss me off and you will end up like your friend." I look to his cronies and his at them.

"I'm going to be nice and let him go but let this be a warning, dis them once shame on you dis them twice and i bite your fucking head off." I shove Marcel against the wall and took my place back with Elijah.

"Where we're we? oh yes well, I do apologize for Klaus' poor behaviour " Marcel coughs and sits back in his chair.

"What about her's" he pointed at me I smiled and went to play with the back of Elijah's hair.

"I did say she was very protective of us, that and if I was to apologise for her needless to say I would be sleeping on the couch for quite some time. I like where I sleep." I snorted in amusement cause what he said was true.

"I assume you know that bite will kill your friend within a matter of days... Of course Niklaus' blood would cure him" Elijah sat bag with one arm around me and the other trailing up and down my leg.

"Yes apparently the blood of the hybrid will cure a werewolf bite. Quite a handy little thing when one needs leverage in negotiation."

"If a hybrid can cure a werewolf bite why can't  your wife do it" I took a deep breath turning round full to face him.

"There is a little problem in your statement, now usually Nik or me could cure werewolf bites with a few exceptions. But and now this is a big but Marcel so make sure your listening. Nik did the biting. I know it's not fair but between my brother and I whoever does the biting does the curing " I told him in a childish and condescending way.

"Fine what negotiations are we talking about?"

"Return the body of the witch Jane-Anne, and allow her people to put her to rest" Marcel leaned forward interested

"what do you care about the witches?"

"well, that's my business now, isn't it?" I smirked knowing we had won.
