The house remained cold and dark for the next week. Jerome still wasn't seen out of his room. He got out of bed to shower but that was about it.

He stayed in his bed not bothering to see his daughter or even eat. Even his own followers were shocked at this behavior. They didn't have a leader telling them what to do.

Cordelia was taking care of Rosalie and Derek was taking charge of Jerome's men.

The Mikaelsons have been staying ever since Cordelia called. They honestly didn't know when they were leaving but a part of them wanted to help, in a way he was family.

"Okay! Everyone family meeting!" Cordelia shouted as she waited in the living room.

"The fuck you mean family?" Philip asked looking at her.

"...I think we're all a family." Gabe said causing all of them to turn around. "Why wouldn't we be?"

Elijah smiled softly at him and patted him on the head. "Yeah. So what did you want to tell us?"

Cordelia took a deep breath as everyone was on the couch. "I think it's best if the children go into a separate room." She said before she told them anything.

"Peter and Gabe." Eligible called their attention "take Katie and Kol upstairs. Wait till we're done talking."

"But-" the young boy protested. "Just do it." His older brother ordered him. Gabe rolled his eyes as his twin brother gathered the kids heading upstairs with them.

Cordelia looked at all of them clearing her throat. "I need to tell you all something. You might not believe me. But from everything I gathered....it seems real."

"What is it?" Derek asked.

"There's still hope... I read that if a supreme dies before she's crowed then she gets a chance of a second life...to properly rule a coven..." she said slowly nervously playing with her necklace.

Philip got up slowly. "W-what are you saying?"

"I'm saying that if she really was the supreme then she might just have a second chance. The thing is I don't know if she really is. We just have to find out..."

"If she is then why is she still dead?" Elijah asked looking up.

"It depends on who the person is. She might wake up months from now. Hell even years. It's not up to us. It's up to her."

There was silence. Everyone exchanging glances.

"I've been doing research ever since she died. I just wanted you all to know..."

Derek stood up looking at everyone. "Well then we have to get her body. Just in case she is."

Philip scoffed "yeah and where are we gonna put it?"
