Losing Hope (Sequel to Little Wolf (a VD and TO story)

Chapter 41

Hayley's P.O.V
I wake up in a circle in a tomb at the cemetery.

"What the hell?" I mutter to myself. Suddenly Davina comes around the corner and tosses me a blanket. "Davina! Get me out of here right now! I swear to God!" I yell at her as I wrap the towel around my bust and try to break out of the spelled circle.

"I didn't bring you here to fight Hayley, I brought you here to talk." Davina says to me.

"I'm not talking to you! You magically kidnapped me on the one night that I can see my husband, my sister.. My niece. You don't deserve my words!" I growl at her angrily.

"I drew you here to help you!" Davina defends.

"Penelope came here months ago asking for your help and you turned her down!" I scream at her angrily.

"Penelope is a Mikaelson, and as regent I can't do favors for Mikaelsons anymore." Davina answers me coldly. "But if you help me... I'll help you." Davina says smirking a bit. "Now listen, I can channel the ancestors and I can find the witch who can undo this spell.. You and your people can be free.."

"I bet my freedom comes with a price..." I growl lowly.

"There's a witch in the 9th ward, she hates that I'm regent. She tried to kill me, if I take action I'm starting civil war, and I'm not about to do that." Davina says shaking her head.

"I don't care, I'll kill anyone or anything, just let me see my family..."

Penelope's P. O. V
I continue to rock with Hope on the porch. My nerves not settling about my pack. Suddenly Elijah comes out of the woods, looking at me with wild eyes.

"Elijah what's wrong? What's going on?" I ask him as I get up out of the chair. He just keeps looking at me, sympathy in his eyes.

"I... I found a few of your pack members.." Elijah says, his voice somber.

"What?! Where are they?" I ask as I put Hope onto my hip. Elijah just keeps looking at me, not sure what to say. Then the realization hits me. "No... Oh my God.." I say as I put my hand over my mouth.

"Penelope I am so, sorry." Elijah says, his voice sympathetic. I look at him as tears form in my eyes.

"No! I refuse to believe that... We have to go find Hayley and Jack.. Come on." I say as I carry Hope on my side and venture into the woods. Elijah quickly follows me.

"Penelope let me take my niece, it will quicken your speed." Elijah says as he takes Hope from my arms. Once he takes Hope from me I begin going through the woods.

"Hayley! Hayley!! Jackson!!" I scream at the top of my lungs. I look around frantically as Hope and Elijah follow me. I take a deep breath and see a bear trap that has been set off. It has a huge puddle of blood around it and I let out a little gasp. "No..." I say, my voice full of grief.

"P..." A familiar voice says a few feet behind me. I turn around and see Jackson, beaten and bloody standing behind a tree.

"Jack.." I mutter out as I look at him, tears keep welling in my eyes.

"Where is she? Where's Hayley?" Jackson asks as he keeps hidden behind the tree. He looks weak and my breath hitches at his weak sight.

"I don't know... We are trying to find her." I say as I wipe my eyes. I walk over to Hope and grab the blanket hanging off of her. "Here" I say as I hand him the blanket. He grabs it and wraps it around his waist. Where could Hayley be? Where could my sister be?

Elijah is pulling out the bullets in Jackson's skin and Jackson hisses in pain. I buckle Hope into her stroller.
