The house was quiet when Kol and Elena got there, so they headed up to his room. He sat her bag down in the chair and showed her all the things his sister had bought for her. She took it all in and smiled at him in the mirror.
"I'm going to let you do your girly things and head downstairs for a drink. I won't be long" he said as he kissed the top of her head and headed out of the bedroom.
Elena opened her bag to grab her green tank top and black pajama shorts, then went back into the bathroom to change. She emerged from the bathroom, crawled into Kol's huge bed and fell asleep.
Kol headed back up upstairs and once inside he could see that Elena was fast asleep. So he undressed and crawled into the bed, careful not to wake her and pulled her back against him closing his eyes. In her sleep she snuggled closer to him, making him smile into her hair.
The next morning Elena woke up in bed alone, she got up and headed to the bathroom to shower. Thankful to Freya for thinking of her when she stayed over. As she was getting out of the shower she sensed she wasn't alone in the room and had assumed it was Kol. What greeted her wasn't him or anyone she knew. Before she could yell out, the figure lifted one arm and said something Elena didn't hear before she out on the floor in a heap.
Elena came to with someone calling her name, when she focused it was Kol along with Freya. Both looking at her with worried expressions and she didn't know what to make of it.
"Where did that witch go?" Elena asked.
"There's no one here but us, I came up to ask you if you wanted breakfast and found you lying on the floor" Freya said with concern.
"Darling are you sure it wasn't Freya you saw?" Kol asked.
"No, there was a witch in here when I came out of the bathroom. She said something but I didn't hear what she said because whatever it was knocked me out" Elena said looking at Kol.
"How is she getting in without any of us seeing or hearing her?" Kol asked Freya.
"I don't know brother, but I guess my day is already planned on how to prevent her from getting back in. But before I do that, I need to figure out what she did to Elena" Freya said.
"You think it's possible she cursed her?" Kol asked.
"I'm fine really, I think she was just as surprised as me and made me pass out so she could escape before I could call out" Elena said.
"Well we need to be sure, because if it's the same witch...we can't trust that she didn't do anything, besides no telling what spell she used on this room before Elena saw her" Freya stated, her eyes widening.
"Please tell me she didn't put a bloody barrier spell on my room" Kol said as he went to check if they could get out.
When they saw that the witch hadn't put a barrier spell on Kol's bedroom they all three sighed their relief. Which was short lived when Kol noticed something amiss.
"Where is the painting of Elena?" he asked with concern, making both Elena and Freya turn in the direction where the Kol had hung the painting.
