I laid in my bed in silence. I was completely numb by now. I could hear the distant arguing going on down the stairs before it got closer. People trying to stop someone. The door slammed open and Klaus came to the side of the bed.

"Get up." He growled. I looked at him. Not knowing what to say. "Come on! Get up. Now." He demanded as he grabbed my arm. Elijah came into the room with Finn.

"Niklaus enough! She lost her soulmate." Elijah scolded his brother as Finn came to my side, pulling me to him. I just let him, wrapping my arm around him.

"Yeah? Well I lost a brother. You lost a brother. Finn and Henrik, lost a brother. As did Rebekah. Not to mention Freya didn't even get to know him much! So why does she get to waste away in her bed?! She has laid in bed long enough!" Klaus shouted as he went to grab me from Finn.

"It's different-"

"Don't you tell me it's different! She has a son. Kol would NOT want her to neglect her own child. He would want her to live!" Klaus snapped before Finn could finish what he was saying. "Kol sacrificed himself so you could have your son, Frankie. Is this how you repay him?! By letting your body disicate? By not even ACKNOWLEDGING your son?!" I turned away from Finn to glare at Klaus.

"I did not ask him to get himself killed. I did not ask for any of this." I spoke back in a low tone. My anger was heard in the tone I spoke in. Klaus glared back at me.

"Thats the problem, isn't it? You never asked for us to help you. You left us to retrieve Tucker on your own. You turned your humanity off and left us again. If it wasn't for Kol taking it upon himself to do something, Tucker wouldn't be here- YOU wouldn't be here." Klaus gritted out. His eyes flashing his hybrid yellow eyes at me. I pulled myself from Finn's arms, flashing towards Klaus and slamming him into the wall. He let me. Not even trying to fight back. "That's right. Show me how angry you are. Show us you are still the Frankie we all fell in love with. The one who hated being told she was wrong, or being taken care of." He demanded. I growled at him.

"That's enough." Elijah spoke up, walking over to us. But Klaus stopped him.

"No. Let her take her anger out on me." Klaus told his brother, his eyes looking at me. "What are you going to do, Frankie? Slap me? Rip my heart out? Go on. Do what you want. Just come back to us. See that you still have all of us here for you. Be our Mate again. Be Tucker's mother again. Just- just be you again." Klaus spoke. My hold on him relaxed, his words hitting me hard. Tears flooding my eyes, which shocked me since I had thought I had cried out all the tears I had for a few hundred years. My hands fell to my sides as Klaus relaxed, leaning against the wall as he watched me.

"I-I'm so-sorry." I cried as the tears flowed freely, shaking my head as I tried to step away from Klaus, but he grabbed me, pulling me to his chest. "Thi-this is all my fa-fault." I stammered out as he held me tightly, his hand stroking my hair.

"No it's not, love. No one could have made this happen." He whispered. My hands moved to grip his shirt, holding on to him tightly as I shook my head.

"He's re-really gone.." I whispered. My heart broken into so many pieces, I didn't think anyone could fix it. But I knew I had to give it to my mates. They will do everything they can to heal me.

"Ready?" Henrik asked me. I was standing in the foyer after just eating. Making sure I had a full stomach before I saw Tucker finally. I looked at the door that stood between me and my son. "Frankie?" I snapped my eyes to my warlock mate.

"Sorry. I'm- Maybe we should do this later?" I tried. I was scared. Terrified. Had he seen my break down? Did he think any less of his mother? Was he mad at me? Did he blame me for his kidnapping or Kol's death? He loved Kol.

"No backing out, love." Klaus said, popping up behind me. His hands on my shoulders to keep me from running away. "He misses his mother."

"Niklaus is right." Finn said as he stood near the door. "He's been asking if you were okay or if you needed hugs for a few days now." I looked at him before glancing at the door.

"Did he ask about Kol?" I asked with hesitation. I glanced to Finn who seemed to not want to answer before looking to either side of me to see Klaus and Henrik.

"He- He did." Henrik spoke up. I looked back at him, waiting to know more.

"He's okay, Frankie. But he needs his mother." Klaus spoke up. I sighed, nodding. Finn opened the door and Klaus pushed me forward some. The moment I saw Tucker sitting with Elijah on the sofa, my heart swelled. Warming up like I was alive again.

"Mom?" Tucker questioned before he got up and ran over to me, jumping into my arms. I smiled, hugging him back and lifting him from the ground. I hugged him gently to me as I took in his essence. I hadn't realized just how much he heals me. When I'm sad or upset. Tucker was a lot like Kol in those regards. A hug or speaking to me- he was able to make me feel more alive. My eyes moved as I noticed their were other people here other than Elijah. Rebekah sat next to another woman, who looked surprisingly a lot like the others.

"Who is this?" I questioned asI lowered Tucker back to the ground. The woman stood up with a gentle smile.

"My name is Freya- I'm-"

"Our long lost sister!" Klaus announced with a grin. I tilted my head at her with a raised brow.

"Long lost sister? Where were you?" I asked. Freya frowned.

"It's a long story- but I was the first born that Dahlia had taken." Freya told me. I nodded slowly as Finn came in and explained more.

"She helped get Tucker to safety." Finn told me. I looked from him to Freya and offered her a smile.

"Then I suppose I owe you many thanks." I told her as I walked over to her. She smiled at me, nodding.

"It was nothing." Freya said before I invaded her space and pulled her into a hug.

"Thank you." I told her. Before releasing her. "I'm Frankie by the way. Although, I'm sure you already know that."

The month went by with me spending most of my time with Tucker. We went for Ice cream and would bake throughout the days.

But the month came to a halt with a simple knock on the door. And with that- my world made a 180.
