KLAUS' BEDROOM
Klaus POV

I stood painting Genevieve as she lay in my bed. When Belle left she showed up but right now I felt like killing her just so this never got out but that would just break the pact

" You're up early. After the night we had, I expected you to sleep in." She said I cringed slightly not looking at her

" Yes, well, morning sun offers the best light." She smiled getting up "Hold still. I'm almost finished."

She smiled again stretching " In my last life, I was far too modest if I was in the nude." She got up walking toward me

"Modesty is for the weak." I snapped she frowned trying to look at the painting but I stood in front

" Well, are you gonna show me?" She inquired tilting her head " The painting is a gift. A token to honor our pact." I answered she put her hand over her heart feigning offense

" Our pact? We had such a lovely night and now I see it was all a means to an end.". She said running a hand over my cheast "Tell me. Beyond the pleasures of last night and the promise of what I'm sure is an exquisite painting, what exactly would a French Quarter witch gain from aligning with you?"

" Well, the treaty my dear brother negotiated between the warring factions of this city, the one that you yourself signed. No doubt everyone means well, but this is after all..." I trailed off

" ...Still the French Quarter?" She asked as my mind wondered to my brother and if he would tell belle of what he no doubt heard

" Your witches need ithe protection only I can provide. No one will dare trifle with you if I am on your side." I said waving her off

"And in exchange, I am to offer you what, exactly?"

"All I ask is for the promise of your allegiance. One never knows when a powerful witch might come in handy." I said

"Well, then." She said kissing me

VAMPIRE TERRITORY, HUMAN TERRITORY, & WEREWOLF TERRITORY

Elijah called a meeting with Diego and the rest of the the Vampire Faction about the Feast of Blessings. " You want us to go to a witch event on bended knee and give them a gift? I'm sorry, but I just remembered. We're busy doing just about anything else that night." Diego said angrily
