The Originals, Alone

Ch. 3

                        Ivy POV

After eating much needed food and drinking some much needed water,

Marcel led me to a room it looked like a office/ bedroom.

There was a lot of furniture.

Couches, chairs, a desk, a huge bed.

"Please sit down Ivy." Marcel said

I did as I was told sitting down on the comfy couch.

Marcel sat in the chair right across from me. Leaning in. His elbows on his knees, both of his hands clapped together,

He looked as if he was thinking really hard. I thought as I stared at him.

"Okay Ivy I need you to tell me what you were doing out there all alone on your own." Marcel said in a soft yet soothing voice

As if he was telling me it was alright . That nothing bad was going to happen.

But was it? Not many people understand my kind. In fact they fear it. They fear it so much that they would rather destroy me instead of me growing up into this powerful supernatural species.

I looked at Marcel.

Oh doo doo he's starring say something!! I thought

I smiled and shyly bent my fingers waving at him.

You idiot that was doing something!! I thought

Now Marcel was kneeling in front of me.

It's alright Ivy. You can trust me. Whatever it is you can tell me.

He said smiling letting me know it was all okay.

I nodded

Well here goes nothing.

I took a deep breath.

"To tell you the truth my dad left me there." I said

Marcel's eyes widen

"He left you there?" He said not sounding happy

I nodded

"You miss understand, he said he was going to come back. He still might I have to stay there and wait for him." I said standing up

"Whoa, whoa sit back down." Marcel said in a calming voice

"When was this. When did he leave you there?" Marcel asked

"Monday." I said

"So today?" He asked

I shook my head .

"He's been gone longer than that." Marcel had this shocked yet dark look on his face

"But he's going to come back." I said standing up again

"Hold on Ivy why don't you just stay here and get some rest I send some guys to stay out there and when your dad does return I'll take you too him." Marcel said

I hesitated

"It's alright you can trust me." He said

I nodded in agreement

"Great." He said smiling at me

                            Marcel POV

I knew something was off just by the way the kid ate like a starved army.

What kind of a freaking father leaves a small child like Ivy in the middle of the woods alone to fend for herself.

Everyone knows the French quarter is the most dangerous part of New Orleans especially at night.

And it's also a known fact that New Orleans has the most population of supernatural.

There is know telling how long Ivy waited on that stump.

It could have been last Monday or six weeks of Monday's.

I know last week we had one hell of a rain storm does that mean she sat out there in that storm.

Just the thought of this makes my blood boil.

I am going to do what I said and send some guys to watch that area.

But once I find him I'm going to be teaching him a thing or two. About abandoning a child.

And poor Ivy she still believes he will come back for her.

If and when he does I'm going to teach that bastard a lesson or two. If it's the last thing I do.

I lay Ivy down on the king sized bed in my room as she fell asleep.

Until I find this bastard. I will protect her. I thought

as I moved some of her dark hair out of he face.

That is a promise.
