Bonnie Bennett only meant to cast a fertility spell. Elijah Mikaelson only meant to pay her generously. Neither of them meant for the spell to backfire and definitely not for Bonnie to end up pregnant with an Original's baby. Now she's got a "loophole baby," a London townhouse she didn't ask for, and a vampire family calling nonstop with opinions. Klaus thinks she's hiding, Rebekah's already planning the nursery, Freya is sending prenatal potions, Kol's making bets on baby names and Elijah? He's building her a dream house and acting like this was all part of the plan. One accidental spell, one impossible baby, and suddenly Bonnie's life looks a lot less like a solo adventure and a lot more like a supernatural rom-com.

Their investigation will lead them from the sun-drenched markets to the opulent but treacherous royal court, where a terrifying evil wears a charming and familiar face.
