I flicked my hand out, slamming the doors open of the house. My eyes glancing around slowly to see if anyone comes to see who was here. The moment I noticed no one was coming is when I knew to be prepared. Only one man in this house was against me that I knew of. My wolf was howling inside of me. Urging to be released so it could take down our prey. That's what Klaus was to me. Prey. He tried to rid me of this world and in turn he would pay his price. A price I knew, he would not enjoy.

Walking into the home, I moved my eyes around. I knew Kai and Kol were keeping an eye out for me in turn. But something wasn't right. Someone was here with Klaus that shouldn't be. It made my skin crawl. Made me feel like I should run in the opposite direction. But I couldn't. I stood my ground as Klaus came waltzing out of the living area with a smug smirk on his face.

"Oh, Eve. Lovely to see you again." He chimed, acting as if he had the upper hand. He did. I know this. I just couldn't figure out how.

"Are you ready to accept your punishment, Niklaus?" I questioned him as I made a step towards him.

"Punishment? Are you the one capable of giving out punishments here?" He questioned as his eyes glowed yellow, a growl making his lips snarl at me. I blinked as my eyes glowed a vibrant ruby color. His eyes flickering between the blue and yellow as his wolf tried to submit to mine.

"How's it feel, Niklaus?" I questioned him as I began to circle him, drawing him out of the corner he was trying to back into. No. I prefer my prey to be out in the open. To show how much power I held. "Knowing your life has been a lie? Is it the same feeling as finding out your dick is small enough to considered a woman?" I heard the snort come out of Kol as I kept my eyes on Klaus. Watching as he seemed to feel the fear I was influencing. His eyes glancing to the arch where the living room was.

"So what? What is my brilliant punishment? Killing me? Maybe cut my limbs off? Send me off to my own prison?" Klaus questioned, his eyes snapping to look at me.

"Oh no, Klaus. I have a better idea for you." I reached out to grab him only for him to bend back and turn into his wolf. I was just as quick though, my black fur spreading across my skin as I let my wolf out to play. Klaus snapped his jaw at me before running at me to bite me. Tackling me to the ground his white fur contrasting with my dark fur. A bite to my shoulder had me growling before I rolled us around, my claws swiping at him as he tried to bite at me again. His yellow eyes darker in anger as my claws dug into his skin.

Klaus got one more good bite in. My fur matting from the bits of blood clotting at it. Klaus's white fur staining with not only my blood but his as I eyed my spot and sank my teeth into his neck, hard. His fur feeling funny in my mouth as his blood flowed into my mouth. Bitter. Klaus let out a howl of pain before I pulled back from him, changing back into human form as I stood up and let Kol wrap a long coat over my shoulders. The small bites that Klaus had made in my skin had stayed- showing the payment I paid for the magic I had just done. It would heal. Slowly.

I watched as Klaus changed back into human. His head thrown back in pain as veins bulged out of his skin. Showing the stress my magic had caused his body.

"What did you do to him?" Kol asked as Kai watched on. A smirk on his lips. I looked over at Kol with a pained smirk on my lips.

"Took the one thing that made him different." Kol frowned, furrowing his brows in confusion. "He fought so hard to unlock his wolf part. Well.. Now that's all he is. I took his vampire. His immortality. Now, Klaus is nothing but a simple Werewolf." I told him calmly. Kol moved his eyes to his brother who was still screaming on the floor. His eyes filling with realization.

"You killed his Vampire." Kai pointed out before Kol could. I nodded.

"She did more than that." I snapped my eyes up to see someone that made my stomach flip in fear. Taking a step back, only for Kai to press against me now. "She took his identity." Kai frowned at the man. Not sure who he was. Kol also looked at him confused. "Hello, Eve. It's been a long time."

"Wait.. who are you?" Kai questioned in a bit of a snappy tone, his hand on my hip tight.

"Father." I breathed, my jaw tight as I stared at God in the flesh. "What are you doing here?" I questioned as God stepped around the nearly passed out Klaus on the floor and stepped up to a drink cart.

"Thought I'd come to see the mayhem you were causing in my little world." He offered.

"Wait. You're like actually him? God himself?" Kai questioned before I could speak. I glanced over my shoulder at him unimpressed with his questions.

"The very man." God smiled, holding his arms out before turning to pour himself a drink. "Don't suppose you've seen Adam, have you? Eva has been looking for him."

"Eva? Really? You couldn't have thought of a better name?" I snipped. My jaw tightening for a different reason now. "And no. Sadly I've been held up in a god damn prison world for over a week." I watched as my father raised his brows at me. And could only imagine the shock on Kol and Kai's face right now.

"Don't look so shocked, boys. Eve was never one to hold back." He told them before looking to me. A fresh drink in his hand. "And you can't blame me. I was hoping the similar name would hold Adam's attention a bit more." He took a sip of his drink before smiling at me. Not a smile I enjoyed- it was all for show. "Tell me, Eve. Enjoying the fabulous world I created? The humans I made?" I growled at him as he glanced over my shoulder at Kai and Kol.

"Not like you are. That's the difference between you and I, isn't it? I actually care about the universe you created. Whereas, you just abandoned it." I growled at him. The only thing holding me back from taking a threatening step towards him was Kai's grip on my hips and Kol's on my hand. God scoffed at my words.

"I didn't abandon it, Eve! I created the best things. I gave these tiny humans a life. A reason to live in my world. I gave them everything." He grinded out. I let out a dry laugh, rolling my eyes.

"You didn't create the best things in life." I told him in a sassy tone. Trying to breath through my anger. "I believe, correct me if I'm wrong- but Walter Anderson did when he created the first Fast Food Restaurant... suppose you can't take credit for everything." God snorted at my tone, shaking his head and smiling.

"I always did admire your ability to fight back, Eve." He praised before placing his empty glass on the cart. "I'll allow you a few days here before I come back for you. But I need you to return to Eden. It's the only way Adam will return as well." I frowned, my brows furrowing in confusion.

"You really think I'll go back there?! Are you serious!?" Kai and Kol couldn't hold me back as I broke out of their hold and made a move to attack my father. But he was gone before I could reach him. "Ugh!" I growled. Kol came up behind me, pulling the long coat tighter around my body as he pulled me into his arms.

"It's going to be okay." Kol whispered into my ear as Kai stepped up next to us.

"He can't take you, Angel. You're not his to take."
