JUNE 2007
NEW ORLEANS
WYNTER'S POV:New Orleans, we finally arrived. We went straight to the mansion we had on the outskirts of town. It was gorgeous and historic.
We spent the first night and day simply getting settled. The Second day though, we left the girls with Elijah and Leah under Kreacher and his two chosen helpers watchful eyes, then hit the quarter.
We were going to find Marcel first. It was time to have a sit down with him. We made sure to wander around the quarter for a bit first. I had to stop at Café Du Monde and get coffee and beignets.Paul and Nik made fun of me when I had a slight powdered sugar mustache. Well at least till I licked my lips watching them. Yeah that shut them up real quick.
We then went and did a little shopping before heading to Rosseaus. I had told Nik that Marcel would find us there.
We settled into a booth and the waitress came over. She tried flirting with Nick and Paul but they ignored her. She got to work after I growled at her. Nik got a bourbon and gumbo. Paul ordered two Gumbos and a beer. Me I got red beans and rice with a hurricane. We sat chatting and teasing each other while we waited and then ate our food.
After about an hour sure enough in walked Marcel Gerard, King of New Orleans.He spotted us immediately. I saw his jaw clench . I sent a smug smirk at Nik who just rolled his eyes while Paul laughed. You would think they would understand I know things by now. Marcel walked to our table and sat across from the 3 of us. Paul was on the inside leaning back drinking from his beer, hand holding mine on my thigh rubbing circles. I was in the middle leaned back head on Nik's shoulder while he held my hand.
"Niklaus Mikaelson, my sire and father. Welcome back to New Orleans. You been away from it for a minute, hell you fell of the edge of the world a while ago. So since you been gone there have been changes, I need to bring you up to speed on the new rules...."
"Let me stop you right there Marcel." I said interrupting him. He blinked looking to me. "We already know your rules and well they don't and never will apply to us. You see i have a job to do here. I would prefer to do it and even form a treaty with you, but you will not speak like you are above us to us." I glared. Nik smirked and looked proud. I know he is thinking he is rubbing off on me, but I know Bella and Narcissa would say it's her being a Black.Marcel growled, "Who the helm you think you are coming into my town and thinking you can talk to me that way?"
I let go of Nik and Paul's hands and slammed mine on the table before standing slowly leaning over it. Resting my hands flat I glared at him. His vampires that tried to move found they couldn't. Everyone else fell asleep.
"I am Wynter Black-Mikaelson. I am a Goddess, Queen, and a hybrid mixture of creatures you don't want to piss off. You fall under my powers Marcellus. I came here to help you. To bring an end to those fucking disgraces that call themselves witches. To secure a better treaty for you and your Vampires. To make it so the Wolves never bother you again. But here you sit acting as if you were raised with no manners. Do not push me. I can be your greatest ally or your worst enemy. Now choose before I do." I sat back down between my mates each taking a hand in theirs and kissing it trying to calm me down."I suggest you listen to my mate and wife Marcel. We are not here to take power from you unless you force us. We won't even be here that long. Only a month or two." Niklaus said.
"Your mate and wife?" He asked arching a brow.
"Yes meet my wife and mate Wynter and my husband and mate Paul." Paul just waved sitting back enjoying the show. "You have missed a few things while I have been away as well."
He nodded and looked back at me I arched an eyebrow indicating I was still waiting. "I would rather us be allies." I nodded and released his men but kept everyone else asleep for the moment."Good choice. Now in regards to the witches, well I am destroying them and their ancestors. They are planning to perform a ritual that requires four young girls be sacrificed. I won't stand for it and neither will Death allow these ancestors free reign. They have escaped true death for far too long. They have abused the magic given to them by Lady Hecate. Now once I am done Lady Hecate will allow only her chosen that she deems worthy to have magic, but only if they swear loyalty to her and the city treaty we will enact. Then I will go and free the wolves from their curse and move them to a new home. Only those who swear by the new treaty would be allowed to stay. As for you and your Vampires you will switch to blood bags unless it is criminals. There is no innocent blood spilled anymore. I will have the human faction provide the blood for you. The witches will seve the city and it's well fare promising not to harm vampires, wolves, or humans unless in self defense. Even then it will have to be proven through memories. I will show you how to do that. The wolves will do the same. So do you Marcel agree? Should you agree there is something extra in it for you." I watched him as he watched me thinking on the offer he was just made.
"What is the extra for me?"he asked.
Nik and Paul both smirked.
"Easy you become one of mine. You gain new powers and I will ensure you remain king of New Orleans till you wish to join us in our paradise."
"One of yours?"
Both Paul and Nik pulled their sleeves up revealing my mark on their wrists. "Those that bear my mark earn special privileges. Some even get an extra blessing. You would be changed in all mater of fact. Same as Paul and Nik have been."
He looked to both men and asked, " Is it worth it?"
They answered without hesitation, "Yes."
He then held his hand out, "We have a deal then."
I smiled as I took his hand leaned across the table as I pulled him close kissing his forehead and giving him my mark and Primal's blessing.
