The Unwanted Daughter

Chapter Twenty-One

It's been two week since Lexi and I left Mystic Falls. Two weeks since mom was murdered. I miss her so much. And the pain hurts so much. I need my mom just like any other person. 

When I left Mystic Falls I came to New York, my home. Mom and I had a place on the upper East side, it's where I was born. Where I had five years of my childhood. 

Lexi followed me when I left, she left me cry in her arms just like my mother would have let me. She was there and that's all I needed. She let me be myself, the horrible bitch that everyone makes me out to be. 

Elena made her way up to New York as well. Saying something about visiting family in California to keep with her story. She's a saint in that town so no one questioned her. She stayed for a couple of days but then had to go back. That sucked, it felt like I was being abandoned again. 

And for the past week Lexi has kept me going, taking me out to see the city that I love and miss. I got to stay here for five years when I was a child then too many people caught on to us, so we went running. But my mom and I had built a life here, and it was a good life.

As a child I never knew the real reason we ran, but as I got older my mother explained things slowly. I enjoyed seeing the world when I was younger, that was the only good thing about running. 

Now it is time to face the future. I plan on leaving Mystic Falls and my father for good soon. But not before I get my revenge. I am going back to Mystic Falls for one last time.

I board a train from Grand Central to Richmond, Lexi was taking a train to Kentucky so we parted our ways. But she told me to call if I need anything. 

When I got to Richmond I stole a BMW and drove back to Mystic Falls. I call Kol on my back to update him on our plan of revenge. 

"Hello" He answers. 

"Hey Kol, remember when I said that you should make a trip to Mystic Fall?" I ask.

"Yes, yes I do. What about it?"

"I was thinking that you could come today. I'm just getting back and the only reason is to get my revenge. I'm sure you've heard that my father killed my mother."

"Word gets around"

"As soon as I get my revenge I'm leaving this half-ass town for good. But in order to get the revenge that is deserved I need some Mikaelson help. So what do ya say?"

"I'll meet you at Nik's house at nine."

"See you there" And we both hang up. Thank god he is coming. 

I decided that my new residence in town would be the Salvatore boarding house. Stefan will hate it, but that's the point. When I arrive when they are all at school, but I want to be a surprise when they get home.

A couple of hours later they come back from school to find me in a chair in the parlor reading a book and enjoying a glass of scotch. They hardly notice me so I set my glass down and get their attention. 

"What the hell are you doing here?" Caroline is the first to speak in a annoyed angry tone. 

"I will be staying here for the foreseeable future." I explain to her. 

"No your not." My father says.

"Well because of you I am without a home. I think it is the least you can do." I tell him calmly. 

"Why don't you just stay in New York?" Elena asks.

"I find Mystic Falls much more entertaining right now. And it's safer here." I tell them.
