My One and Only ; Hope Mikaelson

Chapter 4

(Marin)^

Kol POV

After Rayleigh explained to Marin of our situation, the maid came back outside with a new pair of clothes for her. We then all followed the young hybrid and her maid to an amazing area behind the house, just bustling with trees and flowers, and is that a greenhouse? Wow this place is amazing. Note to self, find a property like this for me and my wife.

Anyway's I turn towards Rayleigh, "Now why are we outside little fairy." I say also introducing the nickname I had for the little girl. I internally coo'd at the little blush that sported on her face, even if it was a little hard to see to the human eyes. Rayleigh turns to me a bright smile and bright eyes as she is positively beaming with excitement.

"Well Mr. Mikaelson, you all wanted to know my second side and I will be more than happy to show you three." She says, then her eyes turned a magnificent shade of green and blue. The hunter, my brother, and I look at her in awe as we witness them.

They glowed with the brightness of an emerald, then dimmed to a sophisticated turquoise color. Rayleigh then took advantage of shock then ran into the bundling forest with a series of giggles.

Third POV

After Rayleigh's dramatic exit, Marin looked towards the three stunned men with amusement. The maid raises her fist near her mouth, then cleared her throat in attempt to gather their attention. Her attempts proved successfully as they looked towards her direction,

"What is she." Klaus asked still coming down from the change of her eyes. The other two looked at her also wanting to know. The maid just smirked at them, then looked out into the wood where her young miss has disappeared into, "You will see soon." She said cryptically leaving them frustrated with the sudden secrecy.

A few minutes later the sound of bones snapping reached their ears, The two originals and the hunter were getting worried for the girl in those woods. Alaric looked towards the maid who was still looking out into the woods, not one expression on her face. Wasn't she worried? Why is she so calm? Doesn't she cared for Rayleigh? As these thoughts circulate the hunter's head. The bone snapping had stopped and it became quiet, eerily quietly. Seconds had passed by and the heretic original decided that he venture for the girl.

"Fuck this, I'm gonna look for the little fairy." He announce about to vamp speed in to the onslaught of trees. "Don't.." Marin said for the first time in a while, no expression on her face, "..the young miss is fine." She concluded her gaze never leaving the the woods. The men looked at her as if she grew a second while doing the macarena. Klaus opened his mouth to say something, probably something rude, but was interrupted by the sound of rustling that caught their attention.

They looked in the direction of the sound, hoping that it would be Rayleigh but their eyes widen as they see a panther emerge from the very woods behind the house.

The panther was beautiful, but what caught all their attention was it's eyes, they were very unnatural, intense.

The animal began to walk towards them, Alaric went to grab his gun in case the animal was going to attack them, but Klaus grabbed his had and with a look that told the man to stand down. Though he was confused, Alaric complied.

Klaus then took big but quiet steps towards the animal his hand slowly reaching out to it. If this was what he thought it was then he had a lot of questions.
