The Queen- Klaus M.

Ready To Go Inside?

Next day.

I woke up, went into the bathroom and made myself ready. I walked downstairs and saw that Marcel was back from his run.

Me "morning, Marc"

Marc said confused "Morning"

I nodded at the suit "new suit? and new mask?"

Marcel turned around and walked to it.

His phone rang. And unknown number.

Marcel smiled and answered  "you want to dress me up in nice clothes, all you had to do was ask"

I smiled" Rebekah"

It wasn't Rebekah. Tristan.

Tristan "I'll keep that in mind in the future, Mr. Gerard. "

Our smiles droped.

Marcel "thought you were someone else"

Tristan "Perhaps my associate Aya. Clearly, she made quite an impression. She is an exquisite beauty, and, in fairness, the voilence was my idea. Had you simply come willingly, like Ariana, none of that would have been necessary."

Marcel "so this is your version of asking me something nicely. "

Me "Marc"

He looked at me.

Me "I'm going home"

He nodded and i walked out and home.

I walked into my room and there hung a dress. A beautiful one with a mask. I walked to it. There was an invitation card on it. From the Strix to a ball. Great.There was something handwritten on it.

Hope you can come tonight

-Tristan

I raised an eyebrow and walked into Nik's office. I was followed close by Elijah and Hayley.

Nik "Oh god. It's my non so loving older brother, my former one-night-stand and my on-off ex girlfriend. What a nice normal family gathering"

I rolled my eyes.

Hayley fake smiled "charming"

Freya was there too.

Hayley"Elijah was just catching me up on that you have no clue on wich of your long lost buddys you can trust and wich one is trying to kill you"

Nik rolled his eyes ". I assume you told her about the bloody prophecy. "

Elijah shighed "i was just getting to that"

Hayley "now would be good"

Nik "well, it appears that my old mate Lucien has acquired a genuine seer, and in an effor to prove his good intentions, he got her to show us some rather dire visions of future doom. It's grim stuff, really, not for the faint of heart. "

Hayley "whose doom are we talking about?. Because if it's yours, then i think we're all ok with that. "

Nik chuckled "well, sadly, we're all on the chopping block, but chin up. This witch claims her visions are constantly evolving, so you may just get your wish."

Hayley "Well, i want to meet this psychic witch"

She turned to Elijah.

Hayley "tonight"

I smirked "And here i thought i was the only one with an invitation"

I walked back into my room.

 I closed the door but it opened again. 

Nik walked inside and i raised an eyebrow. 

Me "What now?"

Nik "where were you yesterday?"

Me "Elijah already told you, didn't he?"

Nik "just wanted to see if you would lie to me"

I nodded.

Nik "and where were you last night?"

Me "I slept over at Marcel's"

Nik nodded "ok"

Then his eyes fell on the dress. 

Me "at first, for some reason, i thought that you bought me that dress, like old times. But then i read the card"

Nik shook his head "you are not going"

I nodded"i am"

Nik shook his head "no"

i nodded "Yes"

He shook his head "no"

Me "Elijah and Marcel will be there and Hayley. "

Nik "if Tristan wants you to join the Strix then don't do it"

I raised an eyebrow "why?"

Nik "because once you're in, you'll never be able to step put of The Strix. "

I asked surprised "are you worried about me?"

Nik "you know i am"

He walked back to the door "Ariana"

I looked at him "what?"

He turned to me "Tristen will tell you things, things you should not believe"

I raised an eyebrow at him "Things like what?"

Nik "you'll see yourself, love. Have fun tonight"

Then he walked out. 

  I sighed and walked into the bathroom.   

(brown hair)

Night. In front of the mansion where the party was.

I stood in front of the mansion.

Suddenly i heard a voice from next to me "you look beautiful, A."

I looked at the person. It was Marcel.

Me "and you look handsome, Marc"

Marc "ready to go inside?"
