This entire city was poison-filled trash and vultures who lurked around and attacked my life, and the lives of my children, as they all tried to hide their faces. They would simpler around and tell me "it's time to move on." Who are you to tell me a...

Alex's P.O.V (Outfit Above ^^^)
~The Next Day~
Elijah had just arrived at the compound, where he joined Klaus and me in the dining room. The older original moved out the day after the wedding, claiming that he wants to help Marcel tame his vampires. Personally, I called bullshit on that reason, and think it has more to do with him attacking me after his nightmare. Even though that sounds self-centered, it doesn't change how he only relaxes in a room with me if someone else is there. Like if he loses control and attacks me, he knows someone will be able to stop him.
Right now, we were waiting in anticipation for this last-minute family brunch, while Erica was watching the children upstairs. I did call Cami to see if she could help Erica today since taking care of twins is a lot of work. However, Marcel has been looking over Vincent Griffith (the original owner of Finn's host body) and asked Cami to talk to Vincent about his whole experience with Finn. I was fine with it since I trusted Erica alone with the kids; she is a good friend of Daniel's and over the past four days the vampire has proven herself to be an ally. Plus if I get worried all I have to do is listen in upstairs.
"There you are. Finally," Klaus said to his older brother. Elijah stripped off his coat and hung it up before heading towards the table. We were using the brunch as a formal getting to know you for Freya, so we could decide if she can be trusted.
"I was delayed," Elijah explained. "Seems the witches want Rebekah, or at least the former owner of her new body, locked up again."
"Why?" I asked.
"Has Niklaus not filled you in on Rebekah's situation?" Elijah questioned. I leaned back in my seat while crossing my arms and looking at my partner.
"No he hasn't," I answered and Klaus bowed his head before looking at both of us.
"I will after today's brunch. Our guest of honor will be here momentarily," Klaus said and Elijah looked at him bemused.
"Strange, our house is conspicuously absent of our lupine guests. I do hope it wasn't on my account," Elijah said and I laughed.
"I sent Hayley, Victor, and Charles off to spend the day with our pack, so they can practice with their new abilities. Which leaves me here with you two to decide whether we want to trust your long-lost elder sister," I explained. Elijah stared at me for a moment before looking at Klaus, knowing this was more his idea than mine.
"Niklaus may remind you again that Rebekah's situation has taken a turn. We may need Freya's assistance. So, whatever you're planning here with Alex? Don't," Elijah warned and Klaus rolled his eyes.
"All we're planning is a simple chat with a long-lost relative. Whether Alex has other intentions, is all her own doing." I simply need to know if I can trust her. It's not like I'm asking her to solve all my life problems. "You yourself said to hear her out," Klaus replied.
