"I'm sorry for trying to dagger Kol" Rebekah said sitting near Claire in the main room of the mansion. "I should have tried to convince him to stay, to listen to us... Not dagger him."
"Nobody could have stopped Kol, his stubborn mind was set on his plan and his plan alone" Claire told her. Rebekah smiles softly. "Kol died because he believed that it was more important to prevent the rise of Silas himself than trust his family to help him. He died so that Silas would stay dead."
"What are you getting at?" Rebekah asked slowly.
"I'm asking you to give up the cure." Claire said. Rebekah's eyes widened. "I've lost one mate to this cure, I will not risk losing another one. I want to destroy every path to the cure. The sword, Artticus Shame, the tombstone and I'm having Hanna find a spell that will cover the hunters mark."
"I have been alive for over a thousand years, I want my human life back" Rebekah snapped. "I want to grow old with Asher, I want to have a normal life. I will not let you take that from me." She growled.
"Is it a human life you want or a family life?" Claire asked calmly. Rebekah frowns her eyebrows. "Do you truly want a human life? A mortal life where the next day is never guaranteed? Or do you just want a chance to have kids? To raise a family?"
Rebekah didn't respond. She thought about it. An immortal life would be worth it if she had Asher by her side. An immortal life would be worth it if she had something to look forward too such as children and raising a family.
"I'm pregnant with Kol's child... That's not supposed to be possible." Claire told her. "It might be possible for you to get pregnant."
"Don't" Rebekah pleads. "Don't give me hope if there is none."
"I wouldn't dare" Claire told her with a small smile. "I think there's hope, I think you have a chance at getting pregnant."
"But what if there isn't? What if I can't get pregnant and I'm stuck as an immortal?" She asks.
"What if you lose Asher like I've lost Kol in your quest to the cure?" Claire asked softly. "I'm asking you to give it up. I know it's a big thing for me to ask but I'm asking."
"Do you think there's a chance to bring Kol back?" Rebekah asks.
"I'm hopeful" Claire said. Rebekah looks down at her hands.
Maybe she could be happy as a vampire now. Her family is changing for the better, their actually a family now. She has Asher, who is willing to give up his magic to be with her forever. They've discussed it before they found out that they could get the cure. He doesn't mind becoming a vampire but he wants to wait.
"Ok" Rebekah nods reluctantly. Claire sighs in relief. "I won't go after it."
"Thank you" Claire said standing up. Rebekah stands as well and pulls Claire into a hug.
