Part Summary: The Mikaelsons are in Mystic Falls causing trouble for everyone. After not seeing her for decades, Y/N, an old friend of Klaus and Stefan's, has come to make amends between th
Y/N
Back at the manor, Stefan introduces Y/N to Jeremy, Bonnie, and Alaric. He figures if I'm going to be playing mediator, they should know I'm not a threat. After all, I'm the only one who can get within yards of the Mikaelsons without getting staked... we're hoping.
"How do you know the Mikaelson's?" Bonny questions as we've all gathered in the living room.
I help myself to the bar cart, pouring myself a glass of bourbon with a grin. "I met Klaus at my eighteenth birthday masquerade ball, Florence 1470."
Caroline's eyes grow wide with a gasp. "That long ago!"
I laugh. "Yes, I'm ancient, don't remind me."
"I'm sorry, I just... I wouldn't have guessed," the girl mumbles, staring at me in awe.
"Is it because I still have a sense of humor?" I joke, glancing at Stefan across the room. "Klaus and I became close friends. My family was wealthy and became patrons of his art. My father commissioned Klaus to paint a mural in our home. Elijah came to visit Klaus for about a month, that's when everything changed..." I choose to leave it there.
Elena shifts forward in her seat on the couch. "How so?"
"Oh do share, Y/N," Damon chuckles from beside his brother.
"Wait, what happened?" Elena glances between me and Damon.
He takes the liberty of answering. "She and Elijah became lovers."
"What!" All four teenagers gasp in unison.
I roll my eyes. "God Damon when you put it that way it sounds weird." I bring my drink to my lips for a strong sip.
"It's weird to imagine any way you put it," he teases.
"It was secretively, of course, my father and brothers would've never allowed it. I was betrothed to a Medici," I describe.
Jeremy's eyes narrow with curiosity. "What happened?"
"In summary, and I mean major summary," I emphasize. "Florence society became suspicious. Klaus threatened Elijah to make me a vampire. When Elijah refused, Klaus turned me himself as revenge. I traveled with them for a few centuries. Elijah and I were together on and off. Skip ahead a couple of centuries, 1969, we're off again and Elijah is somewhere in Europe. I run into Klaus in New York the week after Woodstock." I giggle, recalling that year. "I was really into the lifestyle back then," I describe. "We travel together on and off for ten years after that until he decided to join Elijah in Europe. Finally, in Los Angeles in 1983, Klaus and I set to meet there as I'm traveling on the road with Bon Jovi. He has Stefan with him and the rest is history."
"Best friends with Klaus, lovers with Elijah, both brothers are obsessed with you... So you're basically Katherine," Caroline concludes.
The mere mention of that bitch makes my blood boil. I toss my glass into the fire, making it shatter and I speed over to the girl. My hand wraps around her neck warningly. "Never mention that bitch's name again and never compare me to her!"
