"invisique" muttered Maeve under her breath as soon as she saw Damon and Stefan speed in through the front door. Worry, fear and tension rose under her skin, boiling in her blood making her ears throb.
She nervously ran inside the living room. The sight of the Mystic Falls gang immobilising Klaus made her feel frozen in place. Maeve felt her chest constraint seeing the betrayed look and unshed tears glassing his eyes. Momentarily she forgot the spell she had cast upon herself. Klaus looked at her but couldn't do much as the spell took its complete form and he fell to the ground.
Maeve's mouth fell wide open. She watched the Salvatore brothers with the help of Tyler drag Klaus's body outside of the mansion. Maeve lifted the invisibility spell and dropped to her knees.
"Maeve!" she heard Ezekiel cry out her name. With a deep breath, she turned her head to catch a look at his face before he immediately dropped to his knees as well in front of her, "are you okay?"
"They took him, Zeke. They took him." she mumbled to him.
"We'll get him. I promise. Hey! Look at me, look at me." Zeke forced her to look at him, "we'll get him back. Yeah?"
"We'll bring him back." she mumbled back. With another deep breath she stood back up.
"Where's everyone else?"
"Alaric completed his transition." Ezekiel began, "Bonnie says she was controlled by the witches but who knows──I mean, can you really believe what comes out of any of their mouths. He attacked Rebekah and Caroline at the school but Rebekah managed to get out. Klaus told Rebekah and Elijah to leave, told me to be with you and left to save Caroline and take care of Alaric."
"Shit. Why did you not wake me up?"
Ezekiel chuckled darkly, "I tried to, Elijah too but you wouldn't budge."
"Come on, we need to get them back here." said Maeve. Ezekiel nodded along. Before he could respond or add more another voice interrupted them,
"Hello! Is anybody here or have you all collectively disbanded me again?" Maeve hung her head low and smiled.
"Call Elijah. I'll explain everything to him." Ezekiel told his younger sister and handed her his phone.
Maeve pulled up his contact and dialled the original vampire. "They desiccated Nik" said Maeve as soon as she heard the click of the call being answered.
"What?"
"Yes. Get back here."
"We're on our way."
"Listen." she stopped him from ending the call.
"What is it?"
"Don't tell them I'm alive." She ended the call not letting Elijah or Rebekah say anything more. "Mochatini?" she looked up to see Kol.
"Hey Kolbear."
"What do you want me to do?"
