I stand near Nik's car and watch as Elijah pulls up Hayley and he gets out of the car "He's very angry Elijah, maybe even dagger angry and it's with good cause this time"
Elijah comes over and faces me "And you will stand by as he does?"
I don't get time to answer because Nik walks out with a dagger "Ah, your here perhaps stealing my child away with every fawning moment of tenderness you show to Hayley will earn you a dagger in your chess"
Elijah gives me one last look before looking over to Nik "This has nothing to do with Hayley"
"It has everything to do with her! She's adored you since she arrived and now my child, my blood will grow up to call you father!"
Nik always had these abandonment issues which must have increased when I died "Nik..."
He looks over at me and lowers the dagger he shoves into Elijah's arms and walks over to the car door "You're coming with me, little wolf"
"Why would I go anywhere with you?"
Nik looks at her with an irritated expression "Because, Hayley, that child you carry is the only thing on this earth that matters to me apart from Astrid. Now you can fight me on this, but you will lose..." he opens the car door and looks to Elijah " As will anyone else who tries to stop you from getting in this car"
Hayley stands from where she was sitting and walks over to the car and gets in I follow and get inside. I look over to Hayley and smile "Ready for an adventure little wolf"

The next morning Nik gathered Marcellus's closest vampires over a nice meal Nik stands up and tap the side of his glass with a fork "Let us begin with a toast to our shared gift: immortality after a thousand years, one might expect life to be less keenly felt, for its beauties and its sorrows do diminish with time. But, as vampires, we feel more deeply than humans could possibly imagine"
He gestures towards some waiters and waitresses and they walk over and stand near each vampire "Insatiable need, exquisite pain..."
They slit their wrists and pour a glass of blood for the vampires "Our victories, and our defeats"
I take the glass from the waitress as Nik continues "To my city, my home again. May the blood never cease to flow...
"...and the party never end!"
I look over to Marcellus I can tell he is trying to earn our trust but ill never trust him "To New Orleans"
"To New Orleans!"
Everyone cheers and drinks Nik waits until everyone finishes before continues "I understand that some of you may have questions regarding the recent change in leadership, and I invited you here tonight to assure you that you are not defeated. No, my intentions moving forward are to celebrate what we have. What Marcel, in fact, took and built for this true community of vampires"
