        Sitting in the library inside of the Mikaelson mansion Cassie watched as Hayley read some old book, her eyes were practically glued to the book, like it was the best thing to ever come into existence. The sound of the two blonde Mikaelson siblings arguing pulled Cassie out of her thoughts and she turned her gaze away from Hayley for a moment.

"I'll be back." Cassie told her, and Hayley just nodded not taking her eyes off of the book. Cassie slowly got up from her seat and headed out of the room and into the living room where Rebekah and Klaus were with Aiden in her arms and a small sigh leaving her lips.

"I cannot believe you disposed of those vampires without me." Rebekah groaned, glaring at her brother and Cassie had looked between the two Mikaelson siblings with an raised eyebrow. "You know how I love to set things on fire."

"Was I supposed to leave them in the front yard to rot?" Klaus inquired, "Besides, they were my responsibility. They attacked the helpless, pregnant girl who's carrying my child."

"Oh please," Cassie rolled her eyes at the man, making both Klaus and Rebekah look over at her. "Now you're just being dramatic, Mr. I think everyone's plotting against me."

Rebekah chuckled at Cassie's words while Klaus glared at the dark haired girl, before Rebekah turned back towards her brother. "Oh, I am so moved by your new found sense of fatherly duty towards the werewolf carrying your hybrid bun in her oven."

Just then Hayley walked into the room and looked between Klaus, Rebekah, and Cassie. "The werewolf would like to know what the plan is." Hayley stated as Cassie tilted her head to the side and looked back at her.

"Well, That depends on what plan you mean, love." Klaus chuckled as he looked over at the girl, and Cassie knitted her eyebrows together as she looked between the two of them. "My plan for global domination, or Rebekah's plan to find love in a cruel, cruel world."

Rebekah sent him a fake smile before picking up a pencil and throwing it at klaus's face but he quickly caught it between his fingers before it could embed into his eyeballs.

"I think she means the plan to rescue Elijah." Cassie chimed in, nodding over at Klaus and Hayley had nodded her head in agreement.

"Yeah," the pregnant werewolf huffed before looking towards Klaus again, "you know, the good brother. The one who is now in the possession of your mortal enemy after you stabbed him in the back."

"In the front," Klaus cut in with a small smirk pulling at his lips and Cassie's face instantly dropped at his words. "If we're being specific."

"Please, tell me you're kidding." Cassie spoke blankly, and Klaus smirked back at the girl, eyeing her closely causing her to raise an brow at him challengingly.

"The three of you said you'd get him back." Hayley rolled her eyes and Cassie let out a deep sigh as she had crossed her arms over her chest, "so, is there a plan or what?"
