The Blood Born

Chapter 9: The truth

Camila's pov

"So, you guys take turns into bringing new blood-born here and train them all?"

"Yes. I was the one to bring in Klaus. Trained him just like how I was trained. He then set off and found Derek. Trained him like how I trained him. Derek then found Malia. Trained her like how he was trained by Klaus" she explains to me, painting a very nice portrait of the moon high in the sky. "You following? And so the cycle of who was the last to be brought in must go and find more new blood-born"

"Mhm," I nodded in understanding. "So you're the big sister of the blood born pack?" I asked Freya.

Lauren and I have now been held captive for three days with these people. They say we're not a prisoner but we may not leave. Surprisingly though, Lauren has clicked very well with that Malia girl. Bonding over this and that, but I find it strange how easily Lauren let her guard down around Malia.

"Yes," Freya answered as she continued to paint.

"So, is it true you guys are ruthless?" Freya nodded before looking at me.

"Though, they can be overly sensitive when it comes to certain things," she said working on her painting.

"But not you though, huh?" I questioned making her look at me, as I smirked a little. "The merciless badass who doesn't get sentimental about anyone"

"Somebody's gotta be the big sister" she joked smiling at me. I chuckled in return moving a strand of hair out of my face.

"So there's you then Klaus who's next?"

"There's Niklaus, after Klaus it's Derek. After him, it's Malia, who took a liking to your wife" she points at the two who were talking. Lauren sensing my eyes on her waved to me. "Lastly, there's good old Jacob" she explains to me.

"That's it? I thought there was more of you"

"Well, there is but you were only asking about the original blood-born family, were you not?"

"No, I was but I heard Derek and Jacob talking about someone named Jordan" at the mention of the name Freya accidentally ruined her painting. "Freya? You ok?"

".."

"Is it something I said?" I then questioned when I didn't get an answer. "Sorry, I didn't-"

"..Jordan was the new edition to the family," she says cutting me off as she removed the now ruined canvas, putting a new one up. "She was a promising one. Jacob was the one to bring her in. Trained her and everything. One day while Jordan was just out and about, a man badly injured comes to her and asked for help" she explains trying not to cry as she painted.

Lauren had walked over with Malia sitting down next to me listening to the story.

"Even though some see us as monsters we have a heart. Jordan with the biggest one of us all helps him. Nursed him back to health and everything, once he was better he asked Jordan if she knows where Langley falls were. I guess he was lost or something, but so she helped him" I could tell it was hurting her just talking about it. "She told us about it and being the overprotective family members that we are, we wouldn't allow it. Of course, Jordan being the good person that she is sets off with the guy to Langley falls. Once she helped him, he... he um-"

"Slashed her throat" Jacob finished for her, seeing her struggle. "Left her there to die" Jacob then tells us, taking the story away from her. "It had been days since we last saw her. Until we had finally seen her on the news pronounced dead" Jacob says looking at Freya's painting. "Took her wolf abilities, though he's not as strong as us"
