New Found Family | K.M.

Chapter 11

After he had his fill of blood, Klaus turned to Rebekah and Stefan saying, "Well that was refreshing, I'm going to get a drink from the bar across the street. I'll be back." He said before zooming out of the warehouse.

Now that it was just her and Stefan, Rebekah decided to take advantage of their "alone time" not knowing that Stefan had the same idea.

"My brother told me that you're only with us because he saved your brother, is that true?" Rebekah asked.

Stefan looked down and sighed before nodding his head solemnly. "Yes, it's true."

"He probably admires that about you. The fact that you would sacrifice anything for family."

"Mhmm, now I have a question for you, that's been bothering me."

"Of course, go ahead and ask." Rebekah said, moving slightly closer to Stefan.

"I remember that when I met you two in the 20s, you were both on the run."

"Yes, that was exhausting." Rebekah said jokingly.

Stefan smiled slightly before asking, "Who were you running from?"

"Wh-what do you mean?"

"The last night I saw you, you um, there was a man looking for you. And you both seemed afraid. I just, I wouldn't think that Klaus would be afraid of anything or anyone."

"Well Stefan, no one in this world is truly fearless. Not even Niklaus."

"Who was that man?"

"I can't. Please, if Nik knew that we were talking about this, he would–"

"Hey, hey. No, no, no. I'm sorry. Just forget that I asked that. Okay?"

"He told me about the girl that you loved. Do you think that you'll ever love anyone like you loved that girl?"

"One day maybe." Stefan responded.

Rebekah softly caressed his face before tilting her head to the side while saying, "I can always tell when you're lying Stefan. Your eyes and body language gave you away."

Just as Rebekah backed away from Stefan, Klaus entered the warehouse again saying, "Well are you guys finally done and ready to head back?" Once he said that noticed the tension in the air and quickly turned serious, "What's going on?"

"Something's wrong. He was asking me about Mikael. I don't think he's with us, Nik. I can sense it."

"She's wrong." Stefan quickly said. "Klaus–" but before he could justify himself, Klaus snapped his neck.

After Stefan's body hit the floor, Rebekah turned to Klaus and asked, "So, what do we do now?"

"I don't know yet sister. However, I'd like to know why he started asking about Mikael."

"He said that once he got his memories back he remembered us running from someone, and he wanted to know who you could be so scared of."

"Yes, but why ask that now. He's had his memories back for a couple months now, since the day I woke you guys up."

"That's true...maybe Alex can help. She got into Ray's mind back at that bar, maybe she can do the same to Stefan."

"You're right. I'll go ask her. Watch over Stefan and make sure he doesn't run." Klaus said as he left the warehouse and made his way back to the hotel. Once he arrived at the door to Alex's room, he knocked on her door.

Alex groans at the sound of someone knocking on her door and turns further into Kol's chest hoping that the person would go away. However, the knocking continued, so she tries to angrily get out of bed, but is pulled back into Kol's chest. She giggles slightly before saying, "Kol let go, I need to see who's at the door."
