CHAPTER 49: APHRODITE AND ARES
❝ get on your knees. ❞
▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄▄
ENOLA IS APHRODITE AND NIKLAUS IN ARES. She is at war with anger and he is at war with love. They make a beautiful mosaic of splintered words and fragmented memories. They had the kind of love that will never die. They have the type of love that could move mountains.
Perhaps that is why Aurora kidnapped Camille. Because she was jealous. Because she knew she would never have a love like that. She needed to feel important and the only way to do that was to make them see how much they needed her. She wanted to be wanted. But they didn't need her. And they sure as hell didn't want her. They were going to make that very clear the moment they got their hands on that spiteful little twit.
"It is typical of Aurora, forcing us to look for one of her needles in a rather vile haystack." Lucien commented.
Enola walked through the streets of New Orleans beside Klaus with Lucien following close behind. They had spent a majority of their search in silence as the sound of jazz music filtered throughout the city. They had no interest in conversing with one another. They all had one simple goal in mind; find Cami before Aurora does something even more psychotic. Though Lucien was a bit of a chatterbox.
"Yes. It is quite the undertaking, made all the more onerous by your incessant chatter." Klaus scowled.
"I speak so that I might be listened to," Lucien defended.
"And yet no one listens," Enola hummed.
"I can see why Nik is so taken with you," Lucien said. "You are mean."
"Thank you," Enola spoke absentmindedly.
"As I was saying—Aurora clearly has some devious plan in mind, which begs the question; given how vindictive she is, why bother playing her game?"
"I'm not playing for her," Klaus answered simply
"Then tell me, what is the best case scenario? You save Cami today, Aurora will just kill her some other time, and you can't very well kill Aurora, given she alone has the information needed to find Rebekah." Lucien ranted.
"I am quite aware of the dilemma, thank you." Klaus scoffed.
"Oh, yet you are still determined to rush into this harpy's trap." Lucien pointed out, quickly maneuvering in front of the determined couple to finally make them stop. "What for? Why do you even care about Cami?"
