Freya's POV

Vincent and I started working on the spell that could help us to figure out on how to kill Lucien and Aurora. Given the access on Aurora's blood and the serum she just ingested, I must say we have the chances on that part. Of course, its quite hard for me to think that I'm actually casting the end of the man I love but he seems not to care for me and that thought makes it even more painful. 


"Freya, are you alright?" Vincent asked

"Of course, why wouldn't I be?" I replied. Vincent then walked towards me then looked at my neck. 

"How did you get this? This mark is not just any mark Freya." he said still inspecting my neck

"Quiet down, Vincent. I don't like my brothers knowing about this. I've caused enough problem so I have to keep this to myself." I replied backing away from Vincent

"They have the right to know this Freya. Don't you see? We are not only casting a spell that would kill Lucien and Aurora but it would also kill you. Elijah and Klaus wouldn't be happy about that." 

"What do you want me to do, Vincent? Tell them that my stupidity got me into this mess wherein my life is linked to man who wanted my brothers dead! I'd rather die than let them get hurt." I said


We continued to prepare for the spell that Vincent found when we heard Niklaus shouting. We saw him carrying Cami and placing her on his bed. What shocked us the most is when we saw a bite mark in Cami's arm and we all know who bite her. 


"What happened, brother?" Elijah asked Niklaus

"Lucien bite Cami. He wanted me to suffer like I did to him in the past. I will kill him brother if something happened to Camille." Nik replied with full of anger


I returned back to the room where we will perform the spell. Then I heard my phone ringing.


ring...ring...ring...

Lucien calling...


What the hell does he want now? Has he done enough? I ended the call and continue to light up the candles around the room.


"Aren't you gonna answer that? It might be important" Vincent said entering the room

"Nope. I'm not in the mood for his antics today. Besides, we better hurry completing the spell for Cami." I replied

"Okay. Let's start then."


We started chanting the spell and I start to feel like something is burning my neck. Its the mark! Its causing me too lose concentration in the spell. I need to continue and finish this spell. I could feel my blood in my nose. I tighten my grip on Vincent's hand and ignore the pain I am feeling. 


"Its done." Vincent said. 


I lost consciousness after that.


Vincent's POV

I quickly catch Freya as she collapsed after we performed the spell. I lay her down the sofa. Then I heard footsteps coming.


"Is it done?" Elijah asked.  I give him the serum. 

"Yes. That serum is only to cure the bite from Lucien or Aurora. Freya and I are still working on the spell on killing them." I replied. 


Elijah saw her unconscious sister and quickly come to her side.


"I don't why she passed out. You need to know something Elijah. I guess that would the reason she lost so much power after the spell." I explained

"Go on."

"Freya has a mark." I said showing him the mark I was talking about.

"It can't be. Maybe that's the reason Lucien let her go that easy. He used her so that we can't kill him." Elijah said

"Freya doesn't want you to know about that mark but I guess you have the right to know. Killing Lucien means you kill Freya as well." 

"I must talk to Niklaus about this. Thank you for your help." he said and went to Klaus' room.

"I'm sorry Freya but they need to know about it." I said to her


Freya's POV

I woke up on the sofa and saw Elijah and Niklaus staring at me. I tried to stand up but I'm still weak good thing Elijah catch before I can collapse on the floor. I sit down on the sofa and looked at them.


"How's Cami?" I asked

"She's fine. The serum worked. " Elijah replied

"Good. Why are you staring at me like that?" I asked them. I saw Hayley with Hope as they enter the room wearing the same look that my brother have.

"How could you not tell us, Freya? We could have killed Lucien  yet we didn't know that you are linked to him. You even asked Vincent not to tell us." Elijah said

"I'm sorry. I just don't want to get in the way of our plans against him. I just want our family safe again." I replied. I could feel my tears forming in my eyes. Nik came closer to me and hold my arms.

"We are your family Freya. We will find a way to unlike you to that bastard then we will kill him." he said

"It would be difficult since the ancestors helped him put this  mark on me."  I replied

"We will work on it, Freya. Lucien has done enough to you and to our family. We need to eliminate him once and for all." Elijah said

"For now, you need to rest Freya. You have done enough today. " Hayley said smiling at me


I bit goodnight to each of them and went up to my room to freshen up. After my shower, I'm stunned to see a bouquet of red roses above my bed. I quickly took it and read the card attached to it.


Hope you feel better now, my sweet Freya.

I felt you used your magic it way too much. 

xLucien

P.S. 

Please do answer my calls


How can he feel that? Oh right! Maybe because of this mark. Maybe this mark is just not an ordinary linking mark. Its something more. Something more intimate that links us together.
