Elena's pov
After a few hours of being trapped in that damn helicopter we had finally arrived. I stepped out as we landed and once again there was cameras everywhere. There was a massive crowd and all eyes were on me.I looked at the street sign it read "Front street". I was in front of a mansion with big gates at the front that looked kind of old and rusty they had a big M emblem on them, I guess the family name must begin with an M or something.
I was escorted through the gates by the guards and they took me straight to my room. I guess I was the last girl to arrive because they took me to what they said was the "last available room". But it didn't matter to me at least I had somewhere to stay. I unpacked my bags and got settled for bed. I couldn't stop thinking about my family and friends. Are they okay? Were they safe? Did me being here put them in danger?
Klaus' pov
I sat in my study drawing in my sketchbook. We just had word that all 12 girls had finally arrived. Personally I thought this whole draw day tradition was stupid. Once it was all over and I had my Queen and I am officially the King it will be the first thing to go. I am an original hybrid that can not be killed so nobody will be taking the thrown from me. I've been around for over a thousand years and I will be around for many more. The worst part about this whole ceremony was that I don't even get to meet the girls or pick the winner, it's all done for me. There's this group of people called "The traditionalists" they choose the girls. They judge them all and they pick the winner. So I just have to sit back and let so many decisions be made for me which is one thing I absolutely hate.My train of thought was broken by my older brother Elijah and my younger sister Rebekah walking into my study. I closed my sketchbook and placed it down on the desk in front of me.
Klaus: Something I can do for you?
Elijah: Just simply came to check on you brother
Klaus: Thank you for the concern big brother but I am perfectly fine
Rebekah: In all honestly Nik we just had a few thoughts we wanted to run by youMy sister seemed concerned she had a worried look on her face which always made me give my undivided attention. I'd never admit it but I would go to any lengths necessary to keep my family safe and happy. Even if everyone else thought of me as a monster for my past. I have built quite the reputation for myself.
Klaus: What is it sister?
Rebekah: It's about this whole draw day ceremony. We know you're not happy about it and we were just wondering what exactly is going to happen when a winner has been chosen.
Klaus: what exactly are you implying?
Elijah: What are you going to do when your queen has been chosen Niklaus? We are immortal vampires we never age, as time goes on your queen will realise this. And not to mention how are you going to explain all the supernatural activity here in New Orleans. This city is crawling with vampires, werewolves and witches.
Klaus: It's simple really brother, either I turn the girl into a vampire and introduce her to our world. Or there's my favourite option
Rebekah: which is what Nik?
Klaus: kill her and tell the public she had a tragic illness that killed her.
Elijah: must it always resort to killing with you NiklausElijah hated how ruthless I was and the fact that I didn't care about anything. I have been the same way for a thousand years and I think deep down he accepts that I'll never change. But I know deep down in his heart he has hope that one day someone will see through the beast and bring out "the light" in me. But who could ever love an abomination like me. That's exactly what Mikael used to call me; an abomination, weak and pathetic. He despised me because my mother had an affair with a werewolf and I wasn't his son. That's why I'm the only one of myself and my siblings that has the werewolf gene. Not Finn or Elijah, Kol, Rebekah or our dear younger brother Henrik who was sadly killed over a thousand years ago when we were still human.
But I'm getting off track. The point is no matter who wins this ridiculous competition. She won't live to see the light of day.
A/N
