I had checked out of a lot of the drama that was currently circling Mystic Falls. Damon and Stefan are fighting because Damon is absolutely done with his shit, Klaus and Elijah are still angry that they are still missing a coffin and I have been consoling Caroline over what happened to her dad. He was in the hospital after Tyler Lockwood lost control after turning and nearly killed him. Dr Meredith Fell had healed him with vampire blood so he would survive oh and there is also a killer on the loose somewhere, so that is why I feel perfectly justified staying in the comfort of home with my two best friends whilst my soulmates are otherwise occupied. I was just enjoying reading Shakespeare when the front door opened and closed.

"Hello?" I furrowed my brows at the silence that followed, I looked over to Rose and Trevor who were instantly on guard.

"Jamie" that voice had been the same one that has haunted me for days now. I closed my eyes as I began to shake, refusing to look at him.

"You shouldn't be here Stefan" Trevor's voice was dangerously low as he stood in front of me, body blocking me from Stefan.

"I need to talk to Jamie. This doesn't concern you" my breathing started to get heavy as I began to spiral into a panic.

"She doesn't want to talk to you Stefan. Look at her, she's terrified of you" Trevor placed his hands behind him for me to grab hold of.

"Jamie please. I'm sorry that I threatened you, I was never going to do it" Stefan started to pace in front of me, I genuinely thought I may pass out, I couldn't catch my breath and my heart was beating so fast it was going to jump out of my chest.

"Stefan we will not tell you again. Leave" Rose came and stood beside Trevor, blocking me further. Just when I thought Stefan was going to give up he rushed towards the three of us only to be thrown backwards into a wall.

"Rose and Trevor were very clear when they told you to leave. The only reason you are allowed to be alive is because I respect Damon. I gave him my word that I wouldn't kill you but if you try and take another step towards her Stefan I will end your pathetic existence. Are we clear?" Elijah stood with one hand in his pocket, positioned in front of me, Rose and Trevor. Stefan nodded and was about to leave when he was stabbed in the stomach with a wooden stake.

"I told you brother; she is to be left alone. You aren't allowed to see her; you aren't allowed to talk to her. You so much as cast a shadow on her I'll kill you myself" Damon pulled the stake out of Stefan's stomach and Stefan used his speed to get out of there. "Thank you for protecting her" Rose and Trevor nodded at Damon before they left the room to give me, Damon and Elijah some privacy.

"Are you alright darling?" I nodded at them before they both hugged me. Tears started to fall down my face as I came to the realisation that someone who is once my friend is now the cause of my fear.

"How did you know?" my voice was quiet but hearing it made both of the sigh in relief.

"Rose called Damon, who called me and since I was closer I got here quicker. However the current predicament we have is that Damon has negotiated a dinner between Stefan and Klaus tonight, so I want you to stay upstairs with Rose and Trevor, Damon will come up and get you once Stefan has gone home" I nodded quietly as Damon guided me back to the sofa I was previously sat on.

"Do you think he would have done it?" both of them looked down at me confused, "do you think he would have killed me that night if Nik didn't back down" Damon took a seat beside me and gently grabbed my chin to make me look at him.

"No, because no matter how angry Stefan was, he never would have punished either one of us like that. But that doesn't mean what he did to you wasn't wrong. He deserves hell for what he put you through and no one blames you for no longer wanting him around. In the past I would have chosen my brother over anyone but now the only person I would choose is you" I climbed onto Damon's lap and just held him as I thought over his words. I don't think Stefan realises what he's lost, or maybe he does and that's why he tried to speak to me today but either way I'm done with being Stefan's friend.

***************

Its currently quite late on and me, Rose and Trevor were up in my room just watching really bad movies and talking about everything and anything. Currently me and Rose were laughing at Trevor who was ranting about how inaccurate Twilight was. That's when I had heard it, Klaus's cries of pain. Ignoring the shouts of Rose and Trevor I rushed out of my room and down the stairs. When I got there I saw Rebekah and two others I didn't recognize, one had just stabbed Klaus and as Rebekah went to stab him I threw all of them away with my magic.

"What in the hell is going on here?" I was yelling, mainly at Elijah and Rebekah. Damon stood off to the side with a look I couldn't figure out on his face.

"Ohh a snack, and she's a witch" the younger looking male said, hearing this both Elijah and Damon sped in front of me to stop the younger one from advancing at me.

"She isn't a snack Kol; she is our soulmate" Elijah showed off his soulmark for added effect.

"Oh well in that case move so I can introduce myself" Elijah looked back at me but one look at my face told him it probably wasn't a good idea. Ignoring those around me I kept a tight hold on Klaus as I glared at the rest of them. Kol then shoved Elijah and Damon aside and waltzed right up to me.

"Kol Mikaelson, the best original, obviously. Don't mind that with Nik, just a bit of revenge is all" I looked down at his outstretched hand before snapping my fingers and watching it break. "You are bloody powerful, I'll give you that" deciding he didn't understand how powerful I cast a silent spell, rubbing my index finger and thumb together before blowing on them. I watched as Kol, Rebekah and the other mystery man dropped to the floor crying in pain. I let them suffer for a little while before waving my hand and lifting the spell.

"You have no idea of the power I possess Kol. I wouldn't try to hurt any of my soulmates again" I pushed past him and headed for the stairs again when the front door opened, I stopped in my tracks as a woman walked past me with long blonde hair and straight up to Klaus.

"Mother?" Rebekah's voice cut through the silence. Damon rushed to my side as did Rose and Trevor as their mother walked right up to Klaus.

"Look at me" I watched her command her son, Klaus slowly raised his eyes to meet his mothers, "do you know why I am here?"

"You're here to kill me" at Klaus sentence I geared up, ready to fight her if I needed to.

"Niklaus you are my son, and I am here to forgive you. I want us to be a family again" their mother looked at all of her children before her eyes landed on me. "You are of the Stewart line. Soulmate to two of my sons and the vampire beside you. Your power is envied across all the ancestors" I bowed my head politely before slowly advancing towards her. Holding my hand out I kept my head high as I introduced myself, as soon as my hand came into contact with hers I could feel her trying to channel my family line.

"Jamie-Leigh Stewart, yes I am an immortal witch with three soulmates. The ancestors are envious of my power, but it is those who are still living that crave it the most. However my ancestors and myself have made sure that I cannot be channelled unless I verbally allow it" I made sure to hold eye contact as I stared her down, "so I wouldn't try and channel me again" I pulled my hand out of her grasp and left the room with Damon, Rose and Trevor in tow. Elijah and Klaus joined not long after, so I placed a silencing spell around the room.

"How did you know she was trying to channel you?" Elijah had sat in a chair next to my bookcase. Klaus was pacing because he knows I'm never wrong about these things and Damon has learnt his lesson about doubting me before.

"Because I can feel it when another witch is trying to force a connection. Unless I willing give consent to be channelled, which I wouldn't with your mother, no offence, I cannot be forced to. A baby witch, say Bonnie for example, would not know if the entire Bennett line was being channelled. Since my mum died whilst I was only 21 she made sure that in the spell to make me immortal she put certain protections on me. This is one of them" I sat on my bed with my head in my hands, "look my loves I know she's your mum but don't be so blind as to follow her without question" Elijah and Klaus shared a look at my words and nodded before giving me a quick kiss and heading back downstairs. Damon stayed with me in my room after Rose and Trevor went back to the boarding house. They weren't comfortable with so many originals running around and I couldn't blame them. I kept the silencing spell up around my room as I fell asleep in Damon's arms.
