Good to You

Chapter Twenty-Two

"I did what I had to do. Caroline, your babies were nothing more than collateral damage." Sophie said, her voice shaking.

"Step back," Caroline ordered Klaus

Klaus looked at her, seeing the anger in her eyes burning brightly, he released Sophie and did as Caroline directed.

Caroline stepped in front of Sophie and slammed the palm of her hand into Sophie's ribs using her strength to break them.

Sophie cried out and Caroline gripped her by the jaw. "Shut up! You think you feel pain, you have no idea. I am not a pawn. The twins are not collateral damage! You are going to regret ever taking from me what was not yours to take."

Caroline released her and turned on Hayley. "And you! You backstabbing, baby-snatching bitch!"

"Caroline-," Hayley started.

"Shut up!" Caroline snapped. "Nothing you say can excuse what you have done."

"I was trying to get my family back."

It took everything Caroline had not to punch her in the mouth, instead, she ground out through a clenched jaw. "You took my family. Mine!"

Hayley opened and closed her mouth but there was nothing she could say to that.

Klaus stepped forward, casting glares at both Hayley and Sophie. "You're going to tell us everything!" he zeroed in on Sophie. "I want to know how you knew Caroline was pregnant when she didn't?"

"How was it even possible?!" Caroline exclaimed. "Vampires shouldn't be able to get pregnant!"

"Anything is possible with magic," Sophie said, her voice low, cold. "It all depends on how far you are willing to take it. How dark you are willing to get."

"Tell me!"

"My sister and I planned everything down to every detail," Sophie spoke. "Hayley walking into our bar desperate to reunite with her family was just the key we needed."

Hayley clenched her jaw as Sophie spoke. She wanted to tell the witch to shut up but it would be useless. Klaus and Caroline were going to find out everything and there was nothing she could do to stop it.

"Hayley came looking for her family. She wanted us to help them and my sister and I agreed but first, she had to help us." she looked at Klaus. "We needed to lure you back into town. Marcel needed to go and we thought if anyone could end his reign over New Orleans it would be the vampire who turned him in the first place."

"And that's where the pregnancy came in?" Rebekah frowned. "To lure Nik here for your dirty work."

"It's where Caroline came in and in turn the twins," Sophie answered. "And Hayley's involvement with everything."

"If it's Klaus who you want I think I know of a way to lure him here," Hayley said.

Jane-Anne stood straighter. "Go on."

"There's this girl in Mystic Falls. Vampire. Caroline Forbes. Klaus has this obsession with her. If you bring her here, I'm positive Klaus will follow."

Sophie scoffed. "We're talking about Klaus Mikaelson. He doesn't love."

"But everyone has infatuations," Jane-Anne said a calculating look in her eye. "An original's weakness is their family."

"An infatuation isn't family," Sophie argued.

"But if they were intimate and she became pregnant?" Jane-Anne insisted. "Then she and the child will be family and he would have something no other original has. A child."
