Bed Of Blood

Two

Amelia listened as Marcel prattled on about Klaus and their issues but she was growing bored and angry. Her cousin was now a pawn thanks to the hybrid and Cami was like her sister in every way so she refused to let her cousin be hurt. It had been three months since the arrival of the hybrid and Elijah. She could still feel the heat of his hands. Lately she hadn't been feeling right and just yesterday it felt like someone had tried to attack her with magic only nothing happened. Amelia felt like she was going out of her mind but her father left unable to take the pain of what happened and so she only had her little sister and cousin to talk to.

"Ames are you listening?" Marcel asked drawing her attention.

"No sorry I'm not feeling well," she answered waving her hand for him to continue.

"She must be on her period," one vampire joked.

Amelia glared at him but once she started thinking about it everything made sense. She used her magic feeling around and was surprised when she found a life growing in her. She didn't think it possible because the only person she slept with has been an Original vampire but he was the only possible father and the witch realized her life had just changed forever.

Cami looked at her cousin waiting for her to speak concerned by the fear and anger in her eyes. She was patient knowing all the girl had been through and saw the tears start to form in her eyes as the brunette sat in the chair. The blonde frowned worried as she kneeled beside her and wrapped her arms around her cousin.

"Hey just talk to me," she begged.

"Everything is just so screwed up you don't understand," Amelia cried clinging to the psych grad with all her strength.

"Make me understand then," Cami ordered gently.

Cami gasped when the lamp floated in the air and she pulled back only to find that Amelia's eyes had changed to a violet color. Her cousin started speaking then and she tried to process everything she was told just as her head started to ache memories coming back to her long forgotten and then everything made sense once again.

~Bed of Blood~

Amelia knew the danger to her life was very real and she refused to burden Davina so with no one else to go to she went to her old friend fearful that he would cause her harm. She overlooked the city the sun shining in her face as everything became more real now that Cami knew the truth. Footsteps sounded behind her and she could feel the aura knowing it was the king himself.

"I remember when I first was in here and I felt so small compared to the rest of the world," Amelia told him softly.

"I can tell that something is going on Ames so just talk to me," Marcel begged coming to stand beside her.

"For years I wondered why my mother hated me and I never could figure out why. After I started hanging out with Davina much to her annoyance she became more hateful. No child should have that as a mother and when I was ten she threw me to rapid werewolves and left for me dead. It was the same night I met you," Amelia recalled both of them becoming lost in memories.

The ten year old witch curled up in a ball screaming as the wolves, all cursed to kill her, came towards her snarling. She shook her head wishing for her daddy but he probably didn't know she was missing since she had snuck out to see her baby sister. She cried closing her eyes remembering the way he would spin her around and call her princess wanting the fear to go away. Amelia felt claws swipe across her forearm and she screamed in pain but before the wolf could make another move it was thrown away from her. She looked up into the dark eyes of a vampire and the man's face changed as he kneeled on the ground in front of her.

"It's alright kid. No ones gonna hurt you again," he whispered softly.

Marcel was shocked at the cruelty of the witches and when the girl threw herself at him he could only wrap his arms around her and stand up. Kieran had come to him suspicious but the fact the girls own mother had done this was even more horrifying.

"I remember that you surprised me by clinging to me for dear life," Marcel recalled a smile on his face, "And then you refused to leave me alone."

Marcel heard her sob and frowned worried as he took her in his arms once again. He could hear her begging for him not to hate her but it didn't make sense to him. He needed to figure out what was wrong with her because he made a promise and he always kept them. He pulled away still holding her by her arms and looked into fearful blue eyes.

"Three months ago I slept with Elijah Mikaelson and now I'm pregnant. I don't know how or understand it and now the witches want me and I need you," she sobbed to him.

Marcel wanted to deny it but he knew that Amelia would never lie about something like this. He listened closely shocked when he heard the second heartbeat and sighed. He knew Klaus was planning something but he didn't know what. The more important thing right now was helping a girl he cared about dearly and that meant awakening a man who would more than likely kill him.

Davina couldn't believe what Marcel had told her but then she had felt her sisters fear and knew it to be true. She wanted to hate the Originals and kill hem but now everything had changed. She loved her sister more than life and this didn't change that. Amelia had been more of a mother to her than her own and the teen sighed scared not only for herself but for her sister as well.

"Everything will be okay Ames. Forever and always," she whispered curling up on the bed with her older sister.

Davina closed her eyes praying that she would be right and that everything worked out. She knew the ga,e had changed now that Elijah would be awoken and Ames being pregnant but the only thing that mattered was they had each other.

Elijah inhaled sharply and took in the surroundings noting the attic. His first course of action was taking care of his brother but before he could step out of the room he saw Marcel. He moved to the vampire quicker than the young one expected and held him against the wall.

"Give me one good reason not to kill you Marcellus," he ordered.

"Maybe because you will want to hear what I have to tell you especially the part about how you slept with Amelia and got her pregnant," Marcel got out.

Elijah dropped him and was ready to tell him how it was impossible but then Marcel started speaking. It should be impossible but there was no other explanation for it all. He gave the young vampire a cold look and listened as he told him about Amelia's life and the events that had transpired many months ago. He growled knowing the witches had played him and now everything was changed because of it.
