BLOOD MOON. III.

CHAPTER 3.

"Very well Elijah I will speak to Nik and get back to you. Bye."

"What is it Rebekah?" Freya asked looking up from the Grimoire she was looking through she could see Rebekah was unsettled and agitated after her phone call.

"Elijah is going to marry the wolf girl he wants to have the ceremony here he wants to see Nik again and have the Mikaelson's unite."

"Do you not like the wo.... what is her name Rebekah I am not going to call her the wolf girl," Freya said sighing.

"Hayley, Hayley Marshall and as for not liking her she is one of the few women I do like just not for Elijah and certainly not him for her and of course he wants to marry her. Freya they are so unsuited for each other you have no idea. Elijah thinks he needs to save her rescue her and though she has had a hard life she is smart strong sassy beautiful and incredibly wild, not in an overt way but deep inside herself, Elijah is too tame for her."

"Then why has she said yes to this marriage?" Freya asked interested.

"Well she was adopted from a baby kicked out of her foster home at 13 and has been on her own ever since I think she just didn't want to be alone anymore and she is settling for Elijah." 

"Well that will not last long or end well," Freya said wisely.

"No dear sister it will not," Rebekah huffed with a shake of her head getting up to talk to Nik.

"Niklaus it is good to see you Brother," Elijah said as he embraced his brother whom he had not seen in a thousand years, "Come meet Hayley my betrothed," And Klaus felt as though his heart had been pulled from his chest, the hazel green eyes, the full wide lips, the sharp cheekbones, the long brunette wavy hair, her beautiful smile. Klaus wanted to rip the compound apart, brick by brick, he wanted to lop off heads and pull hearts, he wanted to sink to his knees screaming and shouting to the gods to end his long life this second, but instead he walked to the woman he loved and had waited for a thousand years to be reborn inclined his head and welcomed her coldy to New Orleans and the compound then swiftly left the room and went to his art studio lay on the couch a bottle of bourbon in his grasp drinking it down in gulpfuls.

"Nik dinner are you joining us?" Rebekah asked, looking at him worried he had stayed in here all afternoon ignoring Elijah and Hayley which was unlike him, Rebekah had seen him with Finn and Sage when they had come to visit and he barely left Finn's side, they had talked for days.

"No I have business to attend to, will you send my apologies Rebekah."

"Yes of course Nik."

"Nik you have not been back for three days Brother tell me what is happening?" Kol asked sitting down on the balcony of Nik's bayou river home.

"Hayley Marshall is my Hayley," Klaus told Kol looking him straight in the eye then taking a swig of bourbon from the bottle.

"How did you NOT know? you have tracked the Labonair line for a thousand years."

"It was when we went to Germany in the 60's and 70's she was born there was a fight among the Kenners and the Labonairs the Kenner's killed her Parents. Marcel handled it sent the baby to Father Keran he put her up for adoption her name was Andrea but when she went into the adoption system they changed her name and then she went into the foster system. I had people looking into it but they lost track of her specially after she was thrown out of her foster home at thirteen and must have become homeless changed her name and low and behold she turns up with Elijah. I should have killed all the Kenner's a thousand years ago," Klaus spat out with venom and hatred.
