The Bennett Witch

XXIX

Bonnie groaned when she woke up the next morning to Rebekah standing sheepishly in her doorway. The female obviously wanted to talk to her, and Bonnie had some sympathy for her. She slipped out of bed and walked over to the female original "Let's talk downstairs" the blonde nodded and followed Bonnie to her personal study.

 "What conclusion have you come to?". The Blonde shyly played with her hands before speaking "I have been selfish and uncaring for the past few years, and I owe my brothers a lot more than an apology" For once Bonnie could agree with the vampire and nodded in agreement. Before she could say more her aunt and sister slipped in Nia elegantly sat on the couch while Caroline threw herself onto her favourite chair "So what are you going to do about it, Rebekah?" the tribrid stared at her mate's sister with curious eyes.

Nia, however, scoffed at Caroline's question and looked the other blonde in her eyes as if she was searching her soul before she smiled "Yes, that is a good idea go ahead and run it past Bonnie" Rebekah now encouraged by Nia's smile and comment turned to the head of the Bennett coven "I would like to leave for a while to give them some space and to allow myself proper time to heal and grow" Bonnie raised an eyebrow and turned to Caroline who also seemed surprised but just shrugged.

"Go ahead but on one condition" Rebekah had a determined look on her face as she waited for Bonnie to finish "You allow me to place a Bennett tracking spell on you" The blonde frowned for a second before nodding in agreement. As soon as she agreed the rest of the Bennett coven entered the room and Rebekah found herself in the middle of a circle as they linked hands and spoke words in Aramaic it was quick the feeling of magic in her blood and hair before it faded.

"You can do what you need to do now Rebekah," Adaliah said as she looked at the portrait hanging on the door. The only confirmation that Rebekah heard her was the rush of wind and then silence. The younger witch turned and raised an eyebrow before sitting on Caroline's lap "Was that the right choice?" Adaliah asked her words muffled a bit as she hid her face in Caroline's neck. 

Nia and Bonnie shared a look before the elder of the two spoke "Yes, what Rebekah needs is the distance to accept, learn and grow she needs distance to forgive herself and to figure out who she is now". Nia paused and took a long sip from her coffee before glancing at Bonnie who groaned "Aunt Nia is right, Rebekah's entire life as a vampire had been mainly centred around her brothers and she thought she could find herself in the many men she had met that is what led to this problem".

Adaliah listened to both women before nodding and getting off Caroline's lap "I'm going to cuddle with Jeremy now" As the girl left the room Nazneen sighed and stormed off the Bennett witches exchanged a look before deciding to continue with their plans. "Let's start messing with the Salvatore brothers.

As the others followed Bonnie into the kitchen they were greeted by the men of the family, all shirtless and in lowriding sweats each had a letter in their hand and a myriad of emotions on their face. Bonnie's eyes were glued to Klaus and Kai as both men walked over to her with a tray and matching smirks. She was screwed. Unknown to Bonnie many women in the room shared the same sentiment.

Caroline felt a hand lifting her chin as Elijah towered over her the man had a pleased look on his face as he placed a chaste kiss on her lips and whispered "Do you like what you see my dear" Caroline felt naked and exposed as she nodded. Elijah seemed pleased with himself and threw her over his shoulder.

"Caroline and I have things to discuss, I will see you all at dinner" The women exchanged wide-eyed looks as Elijah disappeared at dinner was that man serious? There was a small gasp then a low growl before silence. At least Caroline was having a good time the others turned to focus on the letters addressed to them and slowly read every line before placing them down. 

Bonnie nodded in approval as she sat between her mates eating the two men shared a knowing glance before ignoring the small sigh that left her lips after she finished the letter. With Caroline no longer in the room and Bonnie occupied by her mates Shelia smiled and turned to the Martin family "Shall we go finish your studies" The two younger members were ecstatic a nodded while their father just smiled and followed them into the training room. Few noticed their intertwined hands.

Adaliah was occupied by Jeremy as the couple cuddled on the couch exchanging soft words and occasional kisses. Nazneen stood with a frown on her face as she watched the couple. Nia walked over and placed a hand on her shoulder "You know you can go visit him" The girl jumped and looked at her aunt before shaking her head "Everyone seems bothered by the age thing, so he is keeping his distance" Nia froze for a second and started laughing "Honey witches ages are determined by their magic after their fifteenth birthday you are an immortal witch go see your man"

Nia watched as the girl got a determined look on her face and left the mansion. A smile on her face as Nazneen made her way to her car and reversed as she watched an arm curled around her waist "That was nice of you" Kol whispered as he placed a soft kiss on her neck, and she shivered. They had not established what their relationship was just yet as the woman had met her soulmate long before he lived and watched him die. While Kol had lost his time and could only visit her tomb.

It was just casual touches and kisses but something about the whole thing made her magic excited and pleased. The witch turned and looked at the man before pulling his face down for a kiss. "Your room" was all she said when she pulled back and Kol immediately flashed them upstairs. Bonnie who had been stuffing her cheeks and observing the entire exchange swallowed and turned to Klaus "Does he know that she is his second chance mate?" The original vampire sighed and shook his head "No but he will find out soon enough.

Next to them Kai chuckled and drank his coffee it seemed that they had derailed all the plans for this morning. Bonnie however had a better idea "How would you two like to help me mess with the doppelganger and her two little bat boys" The grins on the two men's faces were enough to make any sane person cautious.
