《HER LOVE • davina claire》9 | PLAN GONE WRONG

Advertisement

We are standing across the courtyard Cami, Nik and I talk while Cami subtly watches Rebekah with Marcel at the bar with jealousy. Quite frankly, I was hella bored, this party was dead and Cami's jealousy was the most interesting thing that has happened all night long.

"The guy of hers Rebekah was talking about... I'm sensing that would be Marcel." Cami says and I nodde in agreement. There wasn't a use in lying seeing as the two were obvious.

"I'm not surprised. They were crazy about each other." I said bluntlyand Cami gives me an 'I'm right here' look' but I just shurgged. I should have known that even after all these years they would get it on again. If they haven't yet, then soon.

"If you want someone that's going to sugar coat things for you, go and look for other company. I tell it like it is." I told her in an blunt tone once agaim, taking a gulp of my drink.

"Didn't your mother every teach you that if you don't have anything nice to say, rather keep quiet?" She asked, a slight scowl on her face and I smirked.

"I'm sure she did, but I probably didn't pay attention." I answered with a shrug.

"I wouldn't worry about it. Ancient history." Nik says, interrupting our banter and I snorted. How right he is, their history is ancient.

"I'm beginning to think your sisters is bitches." She says to Nik and I feel him tense in fear of how I would react. I blinked at him and he relaxes as he blinked back. Nik laughs heartily and answers her.

"Rebekah is, but it's Lex you should beware of." He warns and glance at me with a playful grin. "She practically invented the term!" Nik says with a grin and I slapped him over the heard. He grunts and leans over slightly but composes himself and looks at Cami.

Cami gazes at Nik, he seems drawn in for a moment. I felt a bit awkward but then he catches himself as he spots someone. I turn and see Marcel getting ready to approach us. Oh boy, I see trouble coming. Not now, but in the future. My brother is a little slow to realise his feelings but once he does, he goes for it. And he doesn't play fair.

"Listen. Pardon us for a moment." Nik tells the have human. We turned around and left her so that Marcel could talk to her. We go to stand with Bekah across the courtyard, Nik, Bekah and I start our own conversation but I don't miss the glares of jealousy that my blonde sister shoots to Marcel and Cami.

"You really are a hideously evil little thing, aren't you?" Nik says to Bekah and I grinned at his teasing.

"Yes, and if she glares at either of them any longer, she will burn a hole through their heads." I added, teasing with my twin.

"Nonsense. They're perfect for each other! You wanted Marcel distracted? Voilà." She says nonchalantly but I sense the jealousy in her tone. After all, I've known her for a thousand years and this is Marcel we're talking about.

"Our cue to leave." Bekah says and I turned. I listened in hearing that Diego just told Marcel what Thierry has done. I nod and leave with her.

Bekah and I speed into the mausoleum where Sophie is waiting for us. I see she has set up a map, a bottle of black sand, and a pocket watch to cast her locator spell. When she hears us she looks up with an anxious look on her face. When she see me, fear quickly passes her eyes and even though her hid it, a smirk made its way to my lips and stayed there.

"You're doing the right thing. It's the only way to find Elijah." Bekah encourges her and glances at me with a look of expectance on her face. Sighing, I nod at my blonde sister, knowing that she wants to me to say something encouraging to the witch.

"I'm doing what I have to do." The witch says.

"If you find my brother you'll earn brownie points with me and your number goes down on my hit list." I say and she looks a little happy at my words. Who wouldn't? It's not nice living with the knowlegde that your on Aleksios Mikaelson's hit list. Not being cocky, just honest. People know how that I can get worse than my entire family combined if you cross me. Even Nik is weary of me when I'm angry.

"Beside, we aren't the only ones getting something out of this so stop your whining." I told her and Sophie rolls her eyes at me before she begins chanting the incantation for the spell.

"Hurry." Bekah says anxsiously and I roll my eyes.

"Telling her to hurry, won't help, in fact it will only distract her." I said calmly and my sister takes a deep breath and looks at me with a nod.

Sophie suddenly senses something and stops the spell.

"Something's wrong. Katie's magic stopped." My eyes widened, the only reason she would stop now is of she was dead. "I can keep going." She says confidently.

"You can't. She'll sense it." "Are you stupid?" My little sister and I say at the same time.

"No. I can find Davina. I just need another moment." She says and is about to start the spell again when Bekah hurries and grabs the map, throwing it and the sand aside so she cannot continue. Sophie looks stunned and upset while I glared at her.

"You may be willing to die to get your witch back, but Hayley and the baby will die with you. Elijah will never forgive us, and rescuing him will be for nothing. It's over. We failed." Bekah says dejectedly and Sophie glances at me with fear again and I sighed deeply.

"She's right. Not only will Elijah not forgive us, I will slaughter all of your witches for letting my family die. That baby is a Mikaelson and it, along with Hayley, is under my as well as and my entire family's protection, you tell your witches that, okay?" I tell her standing face to face with her and she nods frantically with fear shining bright in her eyes and I take a few steps back.

"However, you tried your best tonight, I know, I was here. So your off my hit list." I say and she lets out a big breath of relief and I can see the fear slowly but surely disappearing out of her eyes. I bet she's gonna sleep like a baby tonight.

"Thank you." She says gratefully, smiling at me, and I nod stiffly.

"Don't give me a reason to put you back on it." And without giving her time to reply I speed home with Beks following.

"This was a long and unsuccessful night." I tell Rebekah as I enter the mansion and kicked of my heels in the foyer of our temporary home.

"You're telling me." She says and goes to the study to get us drinks. She eventually comes back with two bottles of bourbon. One for me and one for her. We wandered in silence around the house aimlessly, each carrying our bottle of bouron, when we come across a piano.

"Wanna play?" I ask her and she nods excitedly. We play for a while before we got lazy, fatigue settling in our bones, and we just started play a scattering of notes. After a while, Nik enters and we sit up.

"Well, tonight was an epic failure." She says and before I can agree with her, Nik says something that sends my anger levels spiking.

"On the contrary, sister. Tonight was a masterpiece." He says cheerily. My jaw clenched as I glare at him. What?

"Are you mad? Katie died before Sophie could complete the spell." She says and I nodded in agreement, to upset to talk.

"Oh, I'm well aware. I killed Katie." He says cockily and my temper flared further as my glare got harder.

"You what?" Bekah asks appalled and right now I feel the same about my twin's actions. I can not believe he did this, oh wait, he's Klaus Mikaelson, so I actually I can, I though bitterly.

"There's no way our little suicide witch wasn't gonna try and take out Marcel with her. I saved his life, and in doing so, I now have him exactly where I want him." He says calmly and Bekah explodes as I took deep breaths to calm myself.

"Sophie trusted you. I trusted you! Against all my better instincts." She shouts at him and I just sit there quietly, listening. She's right. Does our brother coming home mean nothing to him? I know he's daggered our siblings in the past but this is different. He's never given them to someone as leverage.

"Wake up, Rebekah, the witches are on no one's side but their own. This girl, Davina? That's all they want, and when they have her, what do you think happens then, a truce? Of course not. They will use Davina's power against all of us." Nik says offended and I calmed down slightly at the mention of this Davina girls' name.

"Even if you're right, the plan was to find Elijah, and you've failed us." Rebekah tells him, her tone stern.

"You always did lack faith. By protecting Marcel, I've cemented his trust, so much so that he's agreed to return Elijah to us. And when the time is right, when he has told me everything I need to know about Davina, I will have her for myself." He says and I'm appalled. That's what this is about? Power. Ignoring the weird feeling in my stomach at the mention of the little witch name, I glared harder at my brother.

"I have all the faith in the world that you'll get what you want, Nik. You always do, no matter what is costs the rest of us. You disgust me." Bekah says and looks at me.

"And you?" I hear her asking, refering to my silence through out this argument. I look at my brother and he doesn't even have an ounce of regret in his eyes.

And that's when I snapped.

"She's right." I say in a low, cold and deadly tone. My twin brother's eyes widen and I look at Rebekah to see her eyes widend and her jaw dropped with surprise on her face. It's not often that I agree with her, even less often that I oppose Nik and I have never spoken to him in this tone.

"What?" He asks in a soft voice and slightly scared but I am to angry with him to care.

I get up and go stand infront off him, looking him dead in the eye I slap him in across the face. Hard.

"How could you?" I ask him in a broken tone. He looks back at me as the slap wipped his head to the side. He looks regretful, ashamed and has tears in his eyes. He opens his mouth but I speed to my room before he could say anything, leaving him there. He needs to realise for himself that he screwed up.
