I was back in the library but this time I had a feeling of where to look, I grabbed out all the books and set them on the table. I was skimming through the book and I hear footsteps, I looked up to see Dorian holding out a book for me.

"Here, I think I found it." Dorian says and I grabbed the boo from him.

"Thank you."

"Did you happen to find what you were looking for?"

"I think so, I don't know. But I will know after reading more on this." I said, biting the inside of my lip.

"You really think Clarke was telling you the truth? You know, making you look into your past." Dorian asked and I shrugging looking at him.

"I mean, Clarke is many things but he's never lied to me before. I am also different from the rest in many ways, not just physically. It's not exactly an option to call upon my father." I said, giving him a look.

"Wait, you can do that?"

"Yeah, why wouldn't I be able too?"

"I-just you know, I know there is prayers and all but bringing him down here. T-to earth." Dorian says and I frowned, raising an eyebrow.

"Trust me, my father wouldn't come down for anything. I'll have to fly back up."

"You can do that?"

"Did you miss the part where I was half angel? With wings?" I said, giving him a look and he chuckles, nodding.

"Of course, I knew that. I was just-yeah. Um, well, if you need anything else just let me know." Dorian says walking off and I chuckled. I grabbed the book and I disappeared to my room, reading through the information I was seeing.

"Hey." I hear someone open the door making me look up to see Lizzie and Hope.

"Knocking never killed anyone. I could've been naked." I said, closing the book.

"Have you looked outside?" Lizzie asked and I gave her a bored look.

"What could possibly be so-," I was cut off when I got to the window, my eyes widened, "What the hell is going on?"

"I don't know. Everyone's acting like it's Christmas and being all merry."

"This is from Malivore?"

"Yeah and guess what job we got stuck with?" Lizzie asked and I looked at them.

"What?"

"I'm being sent to find Frodo Baggins, and I was hoping you'd come with me?" Lizzie asked and I snorted.

"On for a quest to find my ex-boyfriend and curly? I'd rather suffer through Christmas then have to go on a road trip." I said, standing up.

"Ho! Ho! Ho!" Josie sing songs walking into the room, "Who wants some cookies?"

"You've got to be kidding me?" I said, looking at her.

"Cheer up Charmeine, it's Christmas!" She says and I gave her a fake smile.

"Run." Hope whispers to Lizzie, who gives her sister a forced smile before leaving.

"That's my cue. You keep her busy while I go get answers." I said, walking out the door. Hope calls out for me but I kept going, waving bye before getting downstairs.

I see decorations were up, people were dressed in Christmas clothing, everyone was drinking coco and eating biscuits. I managed to get past people without being stopped as I got to the place where Clarke was being held.

I rounded the corner and I see him laying there on the bed, he hears my footsteps looking up and smiling up at me.

"I didn't think you were coming to visit."

"What happened to your face?" I asked, seeing as he was back in his original face.

"Ask Hope, she did this."

"Yeah, she hates you."

"What about you? Do you hate me?" Clarke asked and I pursed my lips, clearing my throat as I walked in.

"You knew what I was yet you didn't tell me?" I said, crossing my arms across my chest.

"You know these past few weeks, all I've wanted to do was to hold you in my arms again. Wanted us to go back to the way things were before." Clarke says and I sucked in my teeth.

"Things change, move on."

"Not things like this." He says, getting up to the bars, "I would go back to that day before your brother had come down to take you away from me. Taken my child away from me." I felt myself getting emotional, before keeping a straight face.

"I came here for answers, not a trip down memory lane. But obviously, we're not getting anywhere." I said, about to walk off but he stops me.

"Nephalem." He says and I turned around, "A hybrid off spring of both an angel and a demon."

"I got that. What does that have to do with me?" I said, looking at him.

"You possess both powers from the Light and Darkness. You're basically a Nephilim but you've got a little evil to you. You're a wild card."

===

I was still with Clarke, trying to find out about what I was or if it was even true at this point. I told Hope where I was, she didn't exactly approve but she also didn't know why I was down here.

"Have you found anything yet?" I asked Hope through the phone.

"No and at this point it's getting annoying." Hope says and I hear carollers singing in the back, "I'm trying to work! So if you don't fa-la-la leave, I'm going to give you all another piercing."

"Don't pout, be in the Christmas spirit Mikaelson." I said, smirking and I knew she was glaring at me through the phone, "What have you come up with?"

"You really want to know?" Hope asked and I snickered.

"It's gotta be better than what I'm working with."

"How's your end?" Hope asked and I looked at Clarke who sits there smirking at me, making me roll my eyes.

"I'm trying to get answers for two different things and he's not bugging about either one."

"Well it would help if we had an upper hand in this." Hope says and I sighed.

"Fine, I'll see what I can do."

"Thank you. Be safe."

"You too." I said, hanging up and I walked back in.

"Guess your merry predicament isn't dying down any time soon?" Clarke asked and I rolled my eyes walking up to the bars.

"No and I really wished they picked a different season. Like I don't know, Halloween?" I said, rolling my eyes.

"Christmas used to be your favourite holiday, I remember that."

"Yeah that was the last Christmas I had with you and our child before everything was taken from me. So I tend not to think back on it." I said, and he gives me a look.

"Well how about I make you a deal? You let me out to be merry with you and I'll give you all the answers you need." Clarke says smirking, "Come on Mae, one more time for the road?"

"You make me regret this, I might just kill you before you actually have too."
