"Lady Evangelina, Lady Caitlin, you have guests." I smile as I turn around and face the servent.

"Caitlin, did you just hear? We can start dinner at last." I reply and she smirks before letting out her fangs.

"I do not think so Evangelina." I spin and face someone I havent seen in decades.

"Elijah?" I walk up to him and place my hand on his cheek. "It is you, but how?"

"Mother." I smile before pulling him into a hug.

"It has been an age! What brings you here?" I exclaim. "How rude of me! Caitlin, This is an old friend of mine, Elijah. Elijah, this is my new sister Caitlin. The second ever vampire made in my blood line." Elijah takes her hand and pecks pecks he top. Jealousy burns inside me but I just smile.

"It is an honnor to meet you Elijah." Caitlin says and Elijah nods.

"I must speak to Evangelina. Alone." Elijah states as he turns back to me.

"It is fine Caitlin. You may leave." I compel her and she leaves.

"Always been the visious one." Elijah chuckles and I shake my head.

"Just when I turned my emotions off ages ago." I walk to the book shelf and run my hand over some books before turning back to him. "What news of the doppleganger have you got?"

"We have found her. A young girl from Bulgaria. Katerina Petrova." He replies. And I nod.

"Always been the Petrova name. I must meet her. This is the first doppleganger." I state as I pull out my family book. "And my great great more greats nice."

"You will. I am throwing a party for my brother's birthday. A ball." He says and I smirk.

"Are you inviting me to a party lord Elijah?" I put my hand over my heart and gasp.

"Yes, I am... So will you come lady Evangelina?" He sticks out his hand and I place mine on his.

"Gladley."

*********

"Caitlin, you can not drink form anyone here unless you want the secret spilled. This is a ball, have fun." I state to her and she smiles before walking off.

"Lady Evangelina." I spin and face dirty blonde hair.

"Lord Niklaus." I state as he takes my hand and pecks it. "How very nice to see you again."

"Well, the last time, you tried to rip out my heart." He states and I place my hand over his heart.

"And because of that pesky wolf gene, you survived. But, I guess the witch had no right to take that away from you. Especially using my sister." I push in and he hisses before pulling my hand away and letting the wounds heal.

"I'm sorry, I see I have gotten blood on your shirt." I say with appolygetic eyes. "Well, as you go to get changed as it is not appropriate for the birthday boy to show up with blood on his shirt, I will go and enjoy myself. Trying not to kill any of your friends." I leave him and walk into the main hall but stop to a still as I watch Elijah with a girl. One of which looks exactly like my sister.

"I see my brother is fashionably late." Elijah says as I come up next to him.

"Like always." I state and the girl and Elijah laugh. "See, the brothers never teach you manners. I'm lady Evangelina." I state as the girl's eyes widen. "She looks just like her." I mumble, only audible to Elijah.

"Katenrina Petrova." She says as she bows then stands.

"What a weird thing! Our family trees must cross somewhere. My family name use to be petrova." Her eyes widen more if it is possible.
