"Last night Caroline had alternate motives to the ultimate girls night" Claire explains sitting beside Kol with her other mates sitting in front of her. "She and Bonnie wanted to do a spell on me. For a while now Caroline noticed I was showing signs of... being..." Claire glances at Kol. He grips her hand and kisses the side of her head. "Of being pregnant" Claire avoids eye contact.
"What?" Klaus blurts. Claire shifts in her seat. Eyes suddenly turn towards Henrik.
"We've been careful," Henrik said frowning his eyebrows.
"It's not yours" Kol growls possessively. Claire leans into him, his arm wraps around her body. He slowly calms down.
"What do you mean it's not his?" Klaus questions. "He's the only one that could get her pregnant," He said. Claire could sense him slowly losing his patience. "Unless-"
"Don't even suggest it" Kol snapped standing up. Klaus glares at his brother and stands up as well.
"What other explanation is there?" Klaus snaps. "If it's not Henrik's, who's is it? It can't be one of ours" Klaus's glare turns to Claire. "It isn't possible."
"It is" Claire whispers as Kol moves more in front of her. Klaus and Kol growl at each other.
"If you think for a second that she would cheat on us, you've lost your mind" Kol snapped shoving him. "How could she hide something like that? Anything that happens to her we can feel, remember? We would know if she's cheated, which she hasn't" Kol shoves his brother again. Klaus retaliates with a shove of his own.
"Enough" Elijah snapped shoving the both of them away from each other. He glances at Claire, who's now sitting with Finn. His arms are wrapped around her, his lips whispering comforting words in her ear. Elijah could feel her fear and he knew the reasoning behind it, they all did.
They knew how this turned out with Tyler. They knew she feared it would happen again. Only this time would be worse seeing as they're her soulmates.
"The spell Bonnie did is absolute. It's never wrong" Kol growled shoving the paper in Klaus's chest. "Why don't you show a little faith?" He snapped before sitting beside Claire. Klaus's face softens as he looks at his mate before looking at the paper with her dried blood on it.
"Not that I don't doubt you but how is this possible?" Elijah speaks up taking the blood-stained paper from Klaus.
"Caroline's theory is the soulmate bond," Claire said looking up. "She thinks it's one of nature's loopholes."
"We can have children" Elijah whispers. He, like his brothers, has believed it to be impossible. "You truly are an amazing woman" He grins at her. She gives him a small smile back but she still felt as if she couldn't relax properly, not without knowing Klaus and Henrik's opinion.
Hesitantly, Claire stands up and moves in front of Klaus. Kol stands as well, ready for anything, not truly trusting Klaus at the moment. The hybrid avoids eye contact.
