Lenza's Pov:

"Um, well- let's go sit on the couch." My Dad said, was he scared to tell me?

"Yeah, sure, okay?" I said and walked with him to the couch.

"Well, I'm not going to beat around the bush, okay?" He said and looked at me, I nodded so he continued. "Well witches, vampires, and werewolves, are real."

I started laughing at what he said. There's no way that's true, but he wasn't laughing. So I stopped and looked at him.

"Wait you're serious?" I asked him in complete shock while not wanting to believe him.

"Yeah. I'm a vampire and so are your aunts and uncles, well your Uncle Niklaus and Aunt Hayley are hybrids, and your Aunt Davina and Aunt Freya are witches, so I guess only your aunt that is a vampire is your Aunt Rebekah, but that doesn't matter." He said really hoping I would believe him. "Oh, and Angel, you're a witch. But that's the weird part because I can compel you and vampires can't compel witches." He said emotionless.

"If vampires can't compel witches, and you can compel me, then I am not a witch." I said back.

"Lenza, when you six- oh nevermind. Remember." He said looking into my eyes.

I then saw myself at six years old a couple of weeks after my birthday talking to my dad and him telling me to make the light go on and off again. I was so confused and conflicted.

"Lenza, you're a witch but I don't know how nor why I was able to compel you that night." He said

"Have you ever compelled me? Other than when I was six?" I asked and his eyes softened.

"No, I haven't." He said back softly.

"Oh okay. Well, how did you guys become vampires, hybrids, and witches?" I asked is clearly confused.

"Well, it's a very long story." He replied. I nodded my head for him to keep going. "Well 1,000 years ago we lived in a village, this village had a pack of wolves. Our mother was a witch, a very powerful witch, and the wolves let us live with them in the village. Every full moon they would turn, so we had to sleep in a cellar under our home. One night Niklaus and our youngest brother, Henrik, snuck out to watch the men turn into wolves. While they were out one of the wolves got ahold of Henrik and killed him. So our father asked our mother to call upon her dark magic and make us immortal. Now a witch wouldn't ever make something truly immortal because it would upset the balance of nature. So everything has a way to die. When your Uncle Niklaus made his first kill as a vampire, he triggered his werewolf curse. Our mother had an affair with one of the wolves in the village. When father found out he was outraged, so he made our mother bind Niklaus's werewolf gene. Now about 17 years ago he broke this curse. Making him the Original Hybrid." He said and looked at me when he said the last sentence.

My eyes widened at the realization that he said 'killed'. If my Uncle Niklaus had killed, had my father? What about the rest of my family?

"Angel calm down, your heart is going a thousand miles per hour." He said concerned.

"You said 'killed'?" It was more of a question that I wanted to be.

"Yes. Lenza, killed. We've lived for a thousand years, blood had been shed, people have died." He said back.

"All of you?" I asked. He shut his eyes a nodded. "Well, I guess it's better I found out now rather than later." I said more to myself than to him.

"I know Lenza. That's why I will tell you what you ask because I don't want you to hear it from someone, not family. Now, you need to go to bed. It's late. Plus you the sooner you get to sleep, the sooner you'll get to meet them." He said, smiling at the end.

"Okay, Dad. Goodnight. I love you." I said getting up.

"Goodnight Angel. I love you too." He said. Then he kissed the top of my head.
