《Home | The Originals》Chapter 2: Late Night Bonding
Advertisement
(Same clothes as last chapter)
A knock on my door woke me up in the middle of the night. I look down and calmed myself a little seeing that Angel was sleeping peacefully on my chest. I gently put her in my place and surround her with every single pillow even putting some on the floor in case I'm gone for a while. I reached my door and opened it only to furrow my eyes as I stare at them. "What do you want, Klaus?" I asked him as he gives me his famous smiles.
"I thought we should have a chat together. I might need your help since you know more of the topic." He told me leaning against my door frame unable to enter.
I think about what could happen. "Fuck it." I shrugged my shoulders. "Fine, I'll chat with you, I just need to get my daughter before we leave." I told him and he smiled in victory.
I went back to my bedroom and packed a extra blanket, diapers, toys, and threw it over my shoulders before picking up Angel silently so she can stay sleep. I went to the door once I had everything and tried to walk past Klaus to leave but I had to stop because he pulled my baby bag off my shoulders. "Thanks." I said at his kindness and he only nodded his head at me.
It was silent between us as he drove. Angel would sometimes turn in her sleep and I would make sure she is having a peaceful dream. "What's her name?" Klaus asked as he glanced at the sleeping baby.
"Her name is Angel. I had her a few weeks ago. She is an outcome from my one night stand." I said smiling at my sleeping girl.

"You're a hybrid." Klaus stated and I can here the proudness in his voice.
"For over a 1000 years. I was born as a witch before a plague took out my entire family. My parents didn't want their legacy to end so soon so they casted a spell, made me drink some wine mixed with blood and then slit my throat open. I woke up to them dead and only one survivor left in my village before I killed her." I said looking through the window while he focused on the road, getting into an comfortable silence between us.
"And the father?" He asked as he parks the car in front of this big house.
"Dead. Extremely dead and I made sure he will forever stay that way. He was nice when I met him but when I was pregnant he just became more strange by the day. The day after I gave birth to Angel, I woke up to him standing over her with a knife pointed at her head." I said and Klaus looks at me in shock. "At that time of my life, I've never been more angry at anything possible. I killed him before he had the chance to kill her and sent parts of his body to his pack before I killed them as well." I explained.
"I'm sorry that happened to you." Klaus apologizes and I looked at him.
"So the great Klaus Mikaelson does say sorry? This moment should be in the history books." I joked making him roll his eyes but he also smiled. Like a genuine smile.
He got out the car and opened my door for me to get out as well. "Let's talk business, shall we?" He said and held his arm out to the entrance of the mansion.

When you are trying to study ancient lore or plan on conquering a kingdom, you don't want to worry about all that. You just want peace. Mortis Operandi is a different kind of company.

As they design, build, and install traps, rooms, obstacles, and repair they are a one stop shop. The sudden exit of Mortis Operandi's CEO, the company was facing ruin. The goblin Eft was choosen as the new CEO and boss. The previous CEO made promises and contracts that Eft now has to fulfill, and it is causing a lot of trouble.

Worse still, the voice comes with impulses that are hard to resist. Violence usually ensues. That’s why he joined the military. A way to channel his urges into mind-numbing physical effort and war. It works for a time. But alcohol and fighting can only carry on for so long. Finally, he realizes, his only way out is suicide. But when he opens his eyes, he’s in the In-Between. The creator has other plans for him, and she won’t take no for an answer. Apparently, this isn’t his first life and if he doesn’t free her from her prison, it won’t be his last. His curse is to be reborn without end, without rest, without memory. Only madness. Now Jack is on the run from forces he doesn’t understand. It’s a new world. The mundane replaced by ethereal artificial intelligence, spontaneous virtual realities, and homicidal bible salesmen. But the creator promises the demon’s voice will disappear as soon as he finds the right girl, the right bond. After that, they just have to escape the clutches of those who hunt them, find the Isle of Song, and free the creator from her prison. Or maybe this time, in this life, Jack will figure out what true freedom is. Come along on this action-packed thriller as Jack fights to remember who he is, tries to end an eternal war, and atone for sins he doesn’t remember…yet.
