Alexa lay awake in bed, staring at the ceiling. She thought about all the ways her life had changed in the last few months. How to go from being a teenage shadowhunter to becoming one of the strongest creatures alive.

It was a strange truth that still felt like a joke that she failed to understand. Everything still seemed unclear, the feeling that no one was telling her everything grew stronger as time went by but she kept pushing those thoughts inside because so far she was safe.

Alexa sat up, pushing the sheets away from her body. She still had a few hours before he had to get ready for whatever lesson Vincent and Bonnie were going to teach her.

Her eyes fell on the pile of books that hurt her heart. She decided to organize it as a means to take her mind off things that were worrying her. She got out of bed and walked towards where the books had been thrown away. She sat with her legs crossed and started looking through the books.

Some of them are just encyclopedias of the supernatural that are tempting to read, but Alexa is still confused enough to do so. She arranged them alphabetically. Next is a notebook, all filled with notes. Alexa mindlessly flipped through the pages, stacking one on top of another.

A page fell in her lap from one of the notebooks. Alexa frowned, putting the book aside, she picked up a page and unfolded it.

Josie told me if I wrote my disturbing thoughts down on paper and burned them I would feel better so here I am.

I miss them. I miss my family, I realize I don't know much about them but that doesn't mean I miss them. Mom told me about dad, stories about him, and my uncle and aunt. I remember him, not much but I remember daddy teaching me how to make paint, telling me how he did it when he was little, daddy calling me princess. While not my favorite term of endearment, it makes me feel special. My father told me that I would become the greatest wizard in the world but sometimes I want to give up. Everything felt so intense and overwhelming and that's when I missed him even more. I wish he was here, part of my life, helping me through those dark days. Saying that I am stronger than my fears, smarter than people without baseless judgment. I want to be part of my family.

"She didn't burn it, can't say I'm surprised"

Alexa turned to see her best friend, sitting on the bed behind her. She's surprised but he'll get used to it later

"You know about her?"

"I know about everyone."

“You didn't say that” she mumbled, folding the paper and placing it back in the book.

She felt sorry for Hope, she knew how comforting family was when she felt sad. His family was what kept her going at times when she thought she couldn't keep up. Magnus and Alec were the ones who taught her the value of her own opinion, Izzy taught her how to not take crap from people like Kol, Vincent taught her how being kind didn't mean being submissive or weak.

Alexa wondered what was keeping Klaus from reaching out to his daughter.

"Why isn't she part of the family?"

"Nik has a lot of enemies. They will try to hurt Hope, just to get to him."

How many people can you piss off in 10 centuries? We know that a lot.

"Hey, can I ask you something?" Alexa glanced at the man.

"Continue."

"How are you wandering around even though you're dead? I mean, is there something holding you back?"

Sh looked at him for a few moments and said "I'm tied."

"What for?"

"A witch. A very powerful witch. I died but she trapped my soul and held me captive. I still don't know who she was. I managed to free myself, but only if the witch died could I come back to life."
