Hope's POV
We arrived at the mansion, and got out of the car. I seen very upset, and angry Aunts and Uncles standing on the porch with their arms crossed. Ryan said, " Why do they seem pissed?"I said, " I may have not told them where I was going."
Ryan said, " What?"
We walked onto the porch, and Rebekah said, " Why didn't you tell us?"
Davina said, " You told us you would tell us what he said."
I said, " I'm sorry, okay. I just didn't know what was going to happen when I walked in there."
Marcel said, " Thats why you have us."
I said, " I'm the Tribrid, I can handle myself. I got that from dad."
Kol said, " I don't bloody care, what you are! You should've told us."
I said, " I'm sorry. I should've told you, but I didn't. I'm sorry. Forgiven?"
Rebekah said, " Only because I can't stay mad at my favorite niece."
I said, " I'm you're only niece."
We laughed, and went inside. I said, " Ryan, you can go ahead upstairs and get cleaned up."
Ryan kissed my cheek, and went upstairs. Kol said, " I thought he is a mud man? Why is he bleeding?"
I said, " He's human, but he's always a mud man to me."
Rebekah said, " You guys are too cute together."
I smiled, and my phone rang. I grabbed it out of my pocket, and looked at the screen. It's mom FaceTiming me.
Marcel said, " Oh, we might've told her that you didn't tell us where you were going."
I said, " What?!"
They shrugged, and walked away. I sighed, and answered the phone, and seen moms face. She said, " Hope! How could you not tell anyone where you were going? Do we need to come back?"
I said, " Mom, I'm fine. I'm sorry, won't happen again, I swear. Yous can continue to find a way to destroy Malivore."
She said, " Okay. How's Ryan?"
I said, " He's alive. I fed him some of my blood, so he's healed. He's upstairs getting cleaned up."
She said, " Good. Your father and I will be back in two days."
I said, " I thought it was going to be a week?"
She said, " I know. But it seems we are getting our answer tomorrow."
I said, " That's good. So, I may have a problem. What should I do about Landon?"
She said, " What do you mean?"
I said, " Im thinking about compelling his feelings away."
She said, " Don't do that, Hope. You could always compel him to leave Ryan alone. Then let him go, and think about what he's done. I'm sure he will come around."
I said, " Okay. Love you."
She smiled, and said, " Love you, sweetie."
I smiled, and hung up. I sped to the cells, and unlocked Landons cell. I untied him, and looked into his eyes. I said, " You will leave Ryan alone, and not send anyone after him."
After he nodded, I stood by the door, and he stood. He said, " I'm free just like that?"
I said, " Luckily, I'm also like my mother. You're free to go."
He said, " Hope, I'm sorry. I should've just got over myself."
I said, " Well, I'm not going to forgive you, for a while. Maybe we can sit down and talk one day."
He said, " Sounds good."
I smiled, and he left. I sped upstairs to my room, and seen Ryan sitting on my bed, shirtless. I said, " Hey."
He said, " Hey."
I walked over to him, and he put his arms around the waist. He said, " You didn't Kill him did you?"
I said, " No, I talked with Mom, and she told me to let him go. He ended up saying sorry."
Ryan said, " He will come around."
I said, " I'm surprised. I thought you would've wanted me to kill him, or enlist one of my uncles to kill him."
He said, " I'm a changed man."
I smiled, and pecked his lips.
I said, " I'll be right back. I'm going to get my shower, it's been a long day."
He nodded, and I went to the bathroom, and got my shower.
After my shower, I put on my black tank top, and black sweat pants. I went into the room, and seen Ryan laying down, scrolling through his phone. I sped over, and laid on the bed. He jumped, and said, " Jeez, Hope."
I said, " Sorry, you're on your phone."
He said, " I was. Not anymore."
He put his phone on the side table, and faced me. He said, " I realized something."
I said, " That it's the first time, we get to be alone, and not tired from running around the city."
He said, " Yep."I leaned on, and kissed his lips. As things got heated, I straddled him.
I soon heard a scream coming from downstairs, I pulled away, and Ryan said, " Whats wrong?"
I said, " I heard a scream."
He said, " Maybe your aunts and uncles are playing a prank."
I shrugged, and he kissed me. I then heard someone say, " Hope!"
I pulled away, and said, " This isn't a prank. What's going on?"
He said, " What do you hear?"I listened in, and heard Aunt Rebekah talking to someone that sounded familiar. I said, " I don't know. Auntie Bex is talking to someone."
He said, " Let's go see what it is."
We got out of bed, and went downstairs. When I stood on the steps, I was shocked to see the person standing in the foyer with my Aunts, and Uncles.
I said, " Mom."
