The Original Queen

Chapter 14

3rd person

The girls spent all night researching, looking for a way to end the mate bond...and found nothing.

Absolutely nothing.

No leads, no spell that even explore the mate bond, not spells that even so much as tweaked it.

They had stacks upon stacks of grimoires, but no leads.

The girls ended up laying around the living room passed out in various places, books scattered around the room.

Only for Bekah to walk in upon them all sleeping. She glanced around confused before shaking her head "What the Bloody hell are you four doing without me?!" She asked loudly, scarring the girls awake.

All the girls looked around confused before seeing Bekah standing there her arms crossed, tapping her foot expectantly.

Caroline jumped up with a sheepish smile "Well we were looking for a way to help you, you know, something to help with the bond. But we couldn't find a thing" She said as she threw one of the books onto the coffee table from where it was perched on her lap.

Bekah looked at them confused "What do you mean help with the bond? There's no way to change it, it just is" she said, she was confused on what they were attempting to do.

Allison rolled her eyes "Bekah if you think we're not gonna try and help you out of this shit you're nuts! You don't deserve to be chained to a mate who doesn't care about you, it's not fair to you. After everything you've been through! No, we are not going to stand for it. We weren't able to find any answers but we think we can make something, we're a pretty strong Coven, I'm sure we can think of something" She said, an air of certainty about her. She wasn't going to take no for an answer.

~~~~~~~~

Marcel paced the church, he couldn't believe this was happening.

How the hell had his life turned into this?!

Kieren walked out with a scowl on his face "I heard about what happened. What are you doing about the new vampires in town?" he asked.

Marcel scowled "I'm handling it, that's all you gotta worry about. Don't be getting involved with these people, they're way out of your league" he said, almost worried about the stubborn man if not for being so angry at what happened last night.

Kieren scowled but walked away, right before he left the room he said a low "She knows you're here" before leaving the room.

Marcel quickly made his way upstairs to see Davina.

When he got to her room he saw her painting "hey kid, how you doing?" He asked gently, knowing she can be easily spooked.

Davina smiled brightly at him, not having much company made their visits that much more important to her.

"I'm okay, better now that you're here!" she said excitedly, putting down her supplies, she still didn't know what she was painting, she just knew it was important.

"I'm glad to see you too but I'm here for a reason, have you felt anything weird the last few days?" He asked, his shoulders stiffening.

He didn't like how powerful that one woman was, she had snapped the neck of at least 15 vampires all at once. That wasn't even counting the threat level of the Mikealsons or their mate.

Divina lost a bit of her happiness, knowing he wasn't just there to see her, he rarely was anymore.

She shook her head "Not really, you know I would tell you if I felt something. Why? Did something happen?" she asked, her voice growing worried.

Marcel nodded "The originals are back in town, and they're looking to stay. They have this group with them, one of them is a powerful witch, snapped the necks of at least 15 of my guys with a snap of a finger. I was hoping you felt it, but you must just feel the witches that use ancestral magic" he said distractedly as he stared at one of her paintings, his mind moving a mile a minute.

He was desperately trying to think of something to save him, something that would let him keep his city.

Marcel knew how the Mikealsons operated, normally they rarely lost, but united? All of them? They were a force to be reckoned with.

"What do you mean originals? Who are they?" She asked confused, she had never been taught about any originals. If they were here she better get familiar fast.

Marcel then proceeded to explain who the Originals were, even who they were to him.

~~~~~~~~

All-day they had looked for answers, absolutely fucking nothing.

They even had Luka call his family, they couldn't find anything.

The girls had no answers whatsoever.

"You're telling me not one witch ever tried to fuck with a mate bond? Not once! Seriously?!" Caroline screamed in frustration, glaring at the 15th book she had looked through that day.

Rebekah threw a book on top of the giant pile of more fucking grimoires "There has got to be at least 1,500 books in this mess. Are you telling me not bloody one of them has anything to do with the mate bond? Not even how to track a mate? What the bloody hell is going on?!" Bekah exclaimed angrily before flopping back onto the couch in defeat.

"It's okay, we can do this, sure it's gonna have to be by scratch, it might take a few months but we'll get it done! It's gotta be possible! If someone hasn't done a spell on a mate bond before then we'll just be the first!!" Allison said as she ran her hand over her stomach, feeling the content little buzz of her child's magic.

Kol came walking in on this scene, the girls all exhausted and annoyed, he heard what his mate had said.

Kol turned to Allison with scrunched eyebrows "Love, didn't you do a spell on your mate bond? To see who we were?" He asked confused. He was almost certain that had happened.

All the girls turned to Allison who was standing there dumbfounded before raising her hands in surrender "Okay, is it too early to blame pregnancy brain on that one? No?...Don't kill the pregnant women!" She said as she ran out of the room being chased by the girls.

~~~~~~~~

Eventually the girls all settled into the living room again.

"Well now we know where to start, you just have to call your grandma" Caroline said as if it was that easy.

Allison winced "Well about that..." she said reluctantly.

Rebekah glared at her "Bloody hell! What now?" she asked, her temper flaring.

Allison looked away from them "Well you seee...my grandmother doesn't know about the baby..."
