At the MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Klaus's POV:

I just put Hope in a small playpen, where she lays down on the floor. As I watches her, I pull out my phone and dial Lucien's number.

"I taught you better than to leave your leftovers in the street! My streets" I say angrily.

[Lucien, who is stumbling around his apartment due to the effects of his werewolf bite, sighs as he cradles his injured arm. He's using a Bluetooth headset so he can have his hands free to search around the apartment]   "You'll have to elaborate, mate." he replies acting confused "Two bodies were found sporting rather memorable lacerations. Are you exorcising your demons by carving up the innocents of New Orleans?" I say still angry Lucien laughs weakly and leans against the doorway to catch his breath for a moment. "Oh, your family is full of unfounded accusations today. And if I was the culprit, why would you care? We used to make fantastic messes together." "There is a delicate balance in this city. There are rules." I say unamused
"Ah, and people you care about. You can't afford to have weaknesses like that right now. "He says slightly chuckling. [Lucien pushes the door to his bedroom closet open and falls onto his knees on the floor in front of a large trunk]   "Speaking of weaknesses, there is a wolf chained to my wall who claims he took a chunk out of your arm. Come see me. I'll give you my blood in exchange for your word that the killings will stop". I say willing to help him.

[Lucien rifles around his trunk, moving aside a sheathed blade, several stacks of books, and what looks like either historical or magical artifacts in search of something at the bottom. He flexes his fingers and looks at the bite wound on his forearm]
"I'm afraid your family dog missed the mark, friend. Barely a scratch. No venom breached the skin." he says convincingly I close my eyes and sighs in annoyance at losing my leverage
"You listen carefully, friend-- my city has enjoyed months of relative peace. If that peace is in any way disrupted, the next gruesome murder will be yours!" I say threateningly
[Lucien, who has found a silver briefcase in his trunk and has pulled it out, chuckles in amusement, which only makes Klaus more frustrated]
"Now there's the Klaus I know." he says happily before hanging up.

I sigh in defeat as I look at hope every time, I look at her all I can think about is my other little girl and how much I regret not being able to rise her like I should be and wondering if she's ok,safe and loved or if she's in danger, dead or just over all not ok. one day I will find her, and she will be apart of this family once again....
