Freya's POV

Waking up with the man you love beside you is entirely a good thing to start anyone's morning. I woke up feeling his arms around my waist. I turn around and saw him sleeping soundly like he is not a vampire, not an upgraded original but a normal man. I can hear his soft snores as I trace his face with my finger. His nose, his eyes, his ears and his lips are perfect. How I wish we could stay like this forever and forget everything but I know we can't, he can't. He loves me and I love him back but love can't give us the solution we wanted for the current situation we are both in.

I stopped tracing his face and remove his arms around his waist. I silently stand up from his bed and collect my clothes from the floor. As I finish putting my clothes back on, I glanced back at Lucien then left his penthouse.

As I walk around the streets of New Orleans, someone grabbed me and pinned me against the nearest wall. Its Daniel.


"Where have you been? I've been calling you nonstop last night but you didn't answer any of calls." He explained

"Its none of your business, Daniel." I said

"Your brothers were asking about you a while ago. I told them that you spent the night at my house. I just wanted to know where the hell have you been after I saw you kissing Lucien last night."

"I was with him last night. He loves me Daniel. He told me last night. And thank you for telling that to my brothers." I replied.

"You had sex with him didn't you? How can you be stupid Freya?! He may be using you yet again for his plans against your brothers." He yelled at me

"I don't want to talk about it, Daniel." I said walking away from him.


As I enter the compound, I saw my brothers, Vincent and Hayley talking about something. They immediately stopped talking and looked at me.


"Look who decided to come home! Sister! Come on and let's talk about the destruction of Lucien and Aurora from the face of the earth." Niklaus said. Don't tell me that the spell is done?

"Vincent finally found a spell that could reverse the serum that Aurora and Lucien consume." Hayley explained. Shocked was evident in my face. Oh god this is not good.

"You seem shocked,sister. Is there something wrong?" Elijah asked analyzing me like a hawk.

"No, there is nothing wrong. I'm absolutely ecstatic with the news." I explained. Elijah doesn't seem to buy my explanation.

"If you are worried about the link between you and Lucien then don't be. Vincent is still researching on how to unlink you and the bastard." Niklaus explained further to me. I can't take this conversation. I need to think first.

"I need to freshen up. Hayley, maybe you could explain it further later." I said walking up the stairs

"Yeah sure." I hear Hayley yelled downstairs


As I closed the door of my room, I removed my clothes and took a night hot bath. I thought about the sudden news about the plan to kill Lucien and Aurora. I'm fine in killing Aurora but Lucien is the problem. With the events that happened last night, I can't help but feel confused on who will I protect and save. My thoughts were cut off when I heard my phone ringing. I wash myself and cover my body with the towel. I grabbed the phone on the bed and answered it.


"Hello?" I answered

"Why did you leave without saying goodbye?"

"I'm sorry. I just need to go home early. " I whispered. I heard him sigh in the other line.

"Why are you even whispering, Freya? Are you really that scared that Nik and Elijah would found out about what happened?" He seriously asked. Now its my turn to sigh

"You know how will they react with it. I just don't know if this would work. I mean you despise them and vice versa. We can't just meet up like secret lovers in a random street here in New Orleans. They have eyes everywhere." I explained to him. Still lowering my voice to avoid attention from my brothers downstairs.

"You will always choose them over everything do you Freya?!  Always and forever with your damn family!" He yelled on the other line

"Lucien, I love you but.." he cut me off

"Do what you want Freya and I will do what I want. Remember this, I would never ever hurt you but I would still kill your brothers especially Niklaus. I'm sorry, love. You love a monster." He said and ended the call.












This situation is much more complicated that I thought.
