The Originals Season 1 | The Ties that bind us

Reigning Pain in New Orleans

I was sitting across of Klaus at the dining table in the Mikaelson compound while Marcel and his crew occupied the surrounding seats. Nik was hosting a dinner to celebrate his status as King of the French Quarter.

As Klaus' ego was getting boosted I was just rubbing my stomach

Klaus stood up and clinked his champagne glass to get the attention of the guests, "Let us begin with a toast to our shared gifted of immortality. After a thousand years, one might expect life to be less keenly felt, for it's beauties and it's sorrows to diminish with time but as vampires, we feel more deeply than humans could possibly imagine"

Klaus snapped his fingers and the compelled help began to serve his guests, each of the hired women cut open their wrists to let their blood pour into the empty glass next to the vampires. I gagged at the sight. I hope i never turn into a vampire.

"Insatiable needs, Exquisite pain." Klaus smiled at the women as they walked away, "Our victories and out defeats," Klaus looked at Marcel before raising his glass, addressing everyone, "To my city, my home again. May the blood never cease to flow"

Marcel raised his glass to his old mentor, "And the party never end"

Diego was the next to speak "To New Orleans"

Everyone agreed and clinked their glass

"now, I understand that some of you have questions regarding the recent change in leadership and I invited you here tonight to assure that you are not defeated. No, my intentions moving forward are to celebrate what we have. What Marcel, in fact, took and built this. A true community of vampires."

"What about the witch?" Diego pointed at me and I met his gaze, then looked at Klaus

"Had you let me finish, Diego," Klaus said as he was walking towards me, "You would know that there is, of course, one further matter I would like to address. As many of you know, the girl is carrying my children. Consequently, I trust you will all pay her the appropriate respect. However, I understand that some of you are concerned by this vicious rumor"

I looked at Klaus as he put his hand on my shoulder

"That I intend to use the blood of our children to create hybrids. I assure you, that I do not."

"he wouldn't even get close to the girls in time to try" I piped in quietly but bitterly, I'm still upset that he bit Elijah and just left him there.

Klaus returned to his side of the table and took a seat "It appears I will have to earn your trust. Very well. We'll eliminate the root of your anxiety. See, how can I sire any hybrids if there are no more werewolves alive in the Bayou to turn?"

I stood up in anger "What? Klaus no!"

"So eat," He said ignoring me, "Drink and be merry. Tomorrow, we hunt."

Klaus glared at me "go ahead, have fun. Kill them all."

I walk out of the room, crying.

I began to walk out of the compound to stop the vampire from killing my family and I was almost out but Diego stopped me

"Going somewhere?" Diego asked

"Actually I was but you got in my way" I said as I grabbed his arm and siphoned some magic and then threw him against the wall knocking me out

"You're not hurting my family

"Marie" I heard from in front of me and I looked up and saw Elijah and Rebekah, running up to him I embraced him and Quickly hugged Rebekah

"Elijah you shouldn't be here. Klaus has these guys watching me"
