Too Dangerous (Elijah Mikaelson)

•Ch•23•Mikaelson Ball•

I went back to the Salvatore house without Elijah, I had a shower and sat around for a bit before I started to get ready. I pinned my hair up and did my makeup before opening the box with the dress. I lifted the soft blood red material up, the dress was simple but gorgeous. It has a cut down the side for your thigh and it was the silkiest dress I've ever touched I could've sworn it was made out of real silk. I put it on carefully not to ruin my hair or makeup.

I was ready to leave, I opened the front door to see Elijah getting out of his car. I smiled at him confused. "Elijah?" I questioned.

He ignored me taking in my appearance as his eyes trailed over my body "may I say you look ravishing Alexandra" he smirked as he kissed my cheek in greeting.

I blushed "thank you, you're looking quiet handsome yourself" I liked how the tux hugged his body in all the right places.

"I thought I'd come up and get you so you don't wander off on me" he grinned opening the car door for me.

"You mean so I dont accidentally kill someone at your mothers party while you're not around?"  I said bluntly as I got in.

Elijah didn't reply he just got in and started driving. We arrived at Klaus' newly built mansion in no time. Elijah offered me his arm, I politely linked mine through his as we walked into the house. There was a few handfuls of people scattered around the place, Elena was there with both Stefan and Damon. Elijah was leading us towards Rabekah, Klaus and who I learnt was Kol and Finn. All the Mikaelson siblings, I was probably not going to like this.

"Ah Ally, you look stunning" Klaus complimented me with a big fake smile on his face.

"Wish I could say the same about you Klaus" I smiled sweetly.

"I like her already brother" Kol chuckled "let me know when Elijah bores you Sweetheart" he winked and walked away, a growl erupted from Elijahs chest.

"I've a feeling you won't be my most hated Mikaelson forever Klaus" I sighed.

"Glad to hear that darling" he smirked and noticed Caroline walk in so he immediately made his way over to her.

"Don't mind Kol Alex, he's always that arrogant" Rebekah advised with a smile before leaving to go to Matt.

I turned to the last brother I didn't really know and hoped he was nice "Alexandra Saltzman" I offered him my hand "you must be Finn right?"

"Indeed its a pleasure to meet you Alexandra" he took my hand and placed a kiss on it before nodding his head at Elijah and walking off.

I sighed "why is your whole family so intense?" I groaned.

Elijah just chuckled amused "We're all Mikaelsons after all" he shrugged with a lob sided grin on his face.

I could tell elijah loved him family and he was proud to be part of it. "Unfortunately" I joked with a smile.

He just chuckled "excuse me for a moment I'll be right back" he walked up the stairs on which the rest of the Mikaelsons were already stood.

"If everyone could gather please" Elijahs voice demanded attention "welcome and thank you for joining us. You know whenever my mother brings our family together like this it's tradition for us to commence the evening with a dance." Elijah caught eye contact with me making it clear that I was apparently going to have to dance with him "Tonight's Pick is a century's old waltz so if all of you could please find yourselves a partner. Please join us in the ballroom" Elijah finished.

Someone tapped my shoulder, I turned around to be met with the face of Kol, "may I have this dance?" He smirked

"I'm here with Elijah Kol" I said bluntly.
