Hope's POV
I woke up, and Ryan isn't in bed. I sighed, maybe he went with my uncles again. Kol, and Marcel usually try to show him the ropes of what it's like being in New Orleans.
Anyway, I got out of bed, and walked to our closet. I put on my white lace crop top, and my blue jeans, with my boots. I sped downstairs to the kitchen, and grabbed a blood bag out of the fridge, and drank it.
Uncle Marcel, and Uncle Kol walked into the kitchen and grabbed blood bags. I said, " Is Ryan with you?"
Kol said, " No. We just woke up."
I said, " I thought yous took Ryan out again."
Marcel said, " No. We've been taking Ryan out for drinks, but not today. He wanted today to spend time with you. Maybe he's doing something."
I said, " Didn't Auntie Bex tell you not to go out drinking with Uncle Kol?"
Marcel said, " If she doesn't find out, it won't hurt her."
I said, " It won't hurt her, but it will hurt you."
Kol said, " Come on, little one. Don't mess with guys nights."
I said, " I will, if you tell me what he was planning for tonight."
They both looked at each other, and Marcel said, " Fine. He wanted to have a romantic evening at the plantation house."
I smiled, and said, " Thank you. I'll be back later."
I sped out of the house and to the plantation house.
I arrived at the plantation house, and seen Ryan's car in the driveway. He must be here.
I went inside, and yelled, " Ryan!"
Nothing. I walked around the house, and ended up going upstairs. I looked in all the rooms, except for mine. I sighed, and went to my room, to find rose petals all over the room, and candles placed, but not lit.
Tears fell as I smelled something in the air. Blood.
I sped to the bathroom, and found a puddle of blood, and only one scent in the air, Ryan. I can't seem to smell anything else, but Ryan's scent. I seen something out of the corner of my eye, on the floor by the cupboard. I picked it up, and recognized it as Ryan's ring from when he pretended to be Vardemus.
I stood up, and walked to the bedroom. I noticed a note laying on the bed, well it had a single symbol on it. A symbol I haven't seen in over a decade. Triad.
I sped outside of the house, and to the compound.
I walked inside the compound, and my Aunts, and Uncles were in the courtyard. I had tears that streamed down my cheeks, and i said, " He's gone!"
Aunt Davina said, " Who is? What's going on?"
I screamed, and felt a pulse of magic release out of me, and explode.
Soon I felt someone's arms on my shoulders, and said, " Hope! You need to calm down!"
I took a deep breath, and soon calmed down. I looked around and the courtyard is a wreck. Tables are broke, and flipped over. Chairs are against the wall, with the couch. I seen Kol helping Davina up, and make sure she is alright. Marcel, and Rebekah were standing in front of me.
I said, " I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I shouldn't of screamed. I'm just so.. so... pissed."
Marcel said, " We get it, Hope. No need to apologize. You're new to all these powers, and it doesn't help that you just got your boyfriend back, and then someone kidnapped him."
I said, " How could you let him go out on his own? He should always have one of us with him."
Kol said, " He insisted we stay, and distract you. He wanted to have a romantic evening with you. We all know you both haven't gotten much romantic time, since Caroline and Nik left New Orleans."
I said, " I know, but I still can't help but think this is my fault. I never should've pushed him to be King. I never should've brought him into this mess. He's into all of this because of me."
Davina said, " Sweetie, no he's not. You do realize all he could talk about with me was how much he loves you, and loves this city. He never knew how much this city meant to you. He always wanted our opinions, on wether he was right for you."
Marcel said, " We need to find out who took him, and where they are."
I said, " I know who took him."
Kol said, " Spit it out."
I showed them the symbol on the paper, and Rebekah said, " A bloody symbol?"
I said, " No. Its Triad. Remember the people I told you that kept the school hostage, before I jumped into Malivore?"
They nodded, and I said, " Triad is the ones that took Ryan. What I don't understand is why they took him? I thought Triad was destroyed a decade ago."
I sighed, and turned around, and Rebekah said, " Hope, where are you going?"
I turned around, and faced her. I said, " I'm going to find Ryan. Whatever it takes."
She said, " We are your family. Let us help."
I said, " Last time I let you help, I ended up with a dagger in my chest."
She said, " Im sorry about that. I was worried about you. All of us were. We didn't want you to go off the rails."
I said, " Like Dad? You don't want me to become like him."
She said, " Its not like that Hope. I don't want you to lose your humanity. Will you let us help?"
I said, " Fine. But we are doing this my way."
They nodded, and I said, " We need the Jet."
Davina said, " Okay. Let me call to get it ready."
I nodded, and she went to call the pilot.
She soon came back, and we left and got to the Jet. We then got on the jet, and it soon took off.
