Indebted - The Vampire Diaries (The Hunter Book 1)

Chapter 29 - 'You Do Have Your Benefits, Stefan.'

A/N - Enjoy this awesome Wolfgang meme that is scarily accurate.

Rebekah Mikaelson walked towards the front door of Wolfgang's mansion, watching it intently as her blue eyes seemed alert for any sort of movement. Before the Original could knock on the solid wood, the door opened and a woman stepped out. She was wearing a short black dress that barely reached mid-thigh, holding a dark denim jacket to cover her mostly exposed chest with one hand and a pair of heels in the other, her fair features covered with smeared makeup and her auburn hair messy. Rebekah inhaled subtly, picking up the distinctive smell of sex as her lips set into a frown.

"Goodbye, Samantha. I'll see you never because I won't call." Wolfgang greeted, appearing in the doorway. The Nachtstern vampire was shirtless, his feet bare as he crossed his arms, smirking at his one-night stand. The woman turned back to him, glaring at him with blue eyes filled with malice, "It's Samara and I hope you die alone, you dick."

"I probably will, sweetheart, and so will you," Wolfgang replied as the woman walked away. The Original let out a sigh, turning to Wolfgang as the Nachtstern crossed his arms, leaning against the doorway as his pink lips curved upwards in a cheery smile, "Hello, Rebekah, would you like to come in?"

The blonde nodded, stepping forward into Thornhill as she looked around. She had never really been inside Wolfgang's new mansion before and looking at it now, she understood why the Nachtstern vampire had bought it in the first place. Rebekah frowned as she moved forward, picking up a pair of handcuffs, pinching them between her thumb and index finger.

"Did you have an eventful night?" Rebekah questioned, holding the handcuffs out for Wolfgang to take. The Nachtstern reached out, nodding in reply as he took the restraints from her before he paused, lightly kicking a naked man asleep on his staircase, "Get up and get out."

"Looks like it was a very eventful night," Rebekah commented and Wolfgang made a noise from the back of his throat that was halfway between a scoff and a snort, "I'm allowed to have an orgy, Rebekah, this is my house." Wolfgang continued into his study, walking towards the desk where he pulled on a shirt, buttoning it up as he turned around to look at Rebekah. The blonde took a seat at his desk, watching as Wolfgang walked to a decanter on the side and poured himself a glass of whiskey.

"It's eight in the bloody morning," Rebekah commented and Wolfgang shrugged as he sat behind his desk, taking a sip of the alcohol. The blonde met his gaze, her icy blue eyes penetrating into his as Wolfgang moved the glass away from his mouth. "My girlfriend that I'm still in love with dumped me again, I'm being hunted by your resurrected mother and there's White Oak out there that could end my immortal existence." Wolfgang said, tapping his daylight ring against the glass, "I'm entitled to at least a drink, love."

"Speaking of White Oak." Rebekah said, leaning forward as she took the glass of whiskey out of Wolfgang's hands, "I'm going to find out what happened to it and if it's still around, I'm going to destroy it."

"That sounds like a plan," Wolfgang said, standing up as he took the glass back and drank what was left of the whiskey inside. Rebekah watched curiously as the hunter ran a hand through his dark hair, unbuttoning his shirt again as he walked towards the door, "Luckily for you, I have an invitation to speak with the mayor." Rebekah's lips tilted upwards, curving into a smile at the thought of having Wolfgang's help, "Great. Let's find that damned tree."

Construction workers moved around, restoring Wickery Bridge as the townspeople gathered there for the restoration fundraiser. Alaric Saltzman, Meredith Fell and Damon Salvatore arrived, the raven-haired vampire looking over at Rebekah and Wolfgang, who were speaking to Carol Lockwood.
