Chapter 9

Cleo-POV

Cleo really messed up this time. she couldn't control herself. Rikki was making her very mad, couldn't she just mind her own business?? Cleo picked up the nearest rock and throw it with incredible force, causing strange looks from people nearby. Sometimes when she was mad she felt the need to take it out on nearby objects.

"Cleo! Pull yourself together." Rebekah said forcefully.

Cleo took a deep breath and realised what she just did, she just made everything so much worse. Now they would be twice as suspicious.

Rikki and Lewis avoided Cleo and Rebekah all day, After school Cleo went to Rebekah's house, to think about there next plan to fix this problem, when they walked through the door Cleo was surprised to see a man she had never seen before in Rebekah's kitchen, making tea.

He turned around and smiled at them, "Coffee, Tea?" He asked politely

"Who is he-" Cleo leaned over to Rebekah

"Elijah what are you doing here, is Nik gone yet?" Rebekah asked the man.

Elijah, Cleo remembered that was one of Rebekah's vampire brothers. He looked very pulled together, like he was a fair and protective family member. Him and Cleo locked eyes for a second to long.

"Ah yes, he has gone back to New Orleans dear sister, You must be Cleo, Sertori if I remember correctly." He strided over and kissed her hand. Cleo wasn't to good with formal greetings so she awkwardly smiled.

"Now Rebekah, what was it you wished to tell me" He asked making himself comfy on the couch.

Rebekah looked nervous, "You are not to tell the others they will make my life hell." She said walking over to the tap and ran her fingers underwater

Elijah nodded and looked intrigued. That look changed to shock when Rebekah fell on the floor now carrying a large scaled tail and a bikini. In one swift movement Elijah got up and speeded to Rebekah's side kneeling to get a better look.

"After 1,000 years, mermaids..." Elijah looked fascinated, he looked up and smirked at Cleo

"You to I presume."

Cleo nodded. She was determined to keep the secret from as many people as possible. But Elijah made her want to tell him her whole life story, he was so trustworthy.

"Cleo I'm going to need to ask you a few things. About your family." He said calmly watching Rebekah turn back to normal form after drying herself with a towel.

Cleo had never told anyone about her past, but it seemed important so she sat down and started.

"My parents died when I was barely 1, I was adopted by a family, They gave me the name Hayley Marshall. They were terrible people, they treated me like nothing, sometimes abused me. Until oneday I had an episode, I assaulted my adoptive father, almost killed him. I always let my anger control. I ran away, intended to go far away, I was 9, it was only when I got to the age of 12 until I made it here, my name was never officially Hayley Marshall, so no one could find me. I met the Sertoris they saw I was skinny, dirty and worn out so they looked after me, I made up my name was Cleo and I didn't know my last name , so they adopted me and gave me Sertori. They have been amazing parents to me since, even through my sister Kim is very irritating. but about 2 months ago I had done well in my time living here to control of my anger, but about 2 months ago I couldn't, and I killed a girl triggering my werewolf side." Cleo confided to them. Rebekah looked sympathetic, she didn't even know all of this. Elijah seemed to be thinking.

"May I see your right shoulder" He asked

Cleo knew he was talking about her birth mark, she pulled down her shirt to show him "Klaus also commented on it" She told him

"I'm sure he did, this is the Labonair crescent wolf pack mark." He looked at Rebekah biting his lip.

"So she is the girl of the prophecy," Rebekah said, Cleo was very confused

"The mark, her backstory it all adds up." He stated.

"Well, Andrea Labonair." Rebekah smiled at Cleo.

Cleo stared at them, she didn't understand. They noticed the confusion.

"But we will end that story when the time comes" Elijah said getting up, "I better be off back home, call me if you need, hope to see you again soon, Cleo" and he swooshed away.

Cleo had many questions, about Andrea Labonair, was she Andrea? the name felt like it meant something to her.

"Am I-" Cleo asked

"Yeah, I cant tell you anything else, I'm sorry you'll find out in good time." Rebekah answered.

Cleo nodded "I'll see you later." And she walked out the door back to her house.
