I WAS OFFICIALLY IN ELIJAH'S HOME... for two days, and he said that he is waiting for Nik to turn back into a human...

I had somehow convinced him to take me today to where Niklaus should be... "He's still a wolf" I heard Elijah say as we came in contact with a grey wolf 

"Hi Nik," I said as the wolf seemed to recognize me and nuzzled its head on my legs... "Don't you think it's time to come back?" I asked as he whined and I chuckled as I sat down on the floor and played with the wolf that was Niklaus...

"Are you sure you don't want to go back my darling" I heard Elijah ask and I sighed... "No, not anytime soon at least," I said as I looked at Elijah who was looking down at the two of us... I noticed Niklaus was then gone...

"Where did he go?" I asked as Elijah chuckled and picked me up and dusted me off of dirt... "He snuck away... let us go find him," he said as he held my hand in his and looked for the grey wolf when I saw a familiar man on the floor...

"You've been busy," Elijah says as he threw the clothes out for Nik... "That was amazing... How long has it been?" he asks us "About two days" I answered  "Full moon came and went. You remained a wolf" Elijah explained as Nik got dressed causing Elijah and me to look away...

"Both of you have seen me naked, I would think it be normal now" he teases making me sigh "I can change at will, then... It's good to know... I remember every single kill," he said making me furrow my eyebrows "Even Jenna and Elena?" I ask and his face falls as he looks away from me...

"Yes, I've been cleaning up your little mess along the way," Elijah says as Nik nodded trying to change the subject "Just like old times, brother, enchantress," he says as he looks at me with guilt...

"You've had your fun... I believe we have a bargain" Elijah said, he told me about his deal with Nikklaus... Nik had said that he had left his family in the sea but I don't believe him... it seems like a way to torture Elijah

"That's right... Now, what was it again? Oh, yeah... Wait... I remember... That's it... You wish to be reunited with our family"  Nikklaus said teasing him making me sigh at his unnecessary actions...

"You gave me your word, Niklaus," Elijah said as he looked skeptical of his brother "What kind of brother would break his bond? Even though you did try to kill me" Nik said trying to guilt-trip Elijah "I could have... But I didn't"

"You're right because Aphrodite would have never forgiven you, brother," he said and I sighed... he was right, I don't think I would have ever forgiven Elijah...

"And now no one can kill me, not even you... Relax, Elijah... All is forgiven" Nik says as I sigh... this was definitely not going to end well...

"Where are they?" Elijah asks again "You need to lighten up... I'll bring you to them soon enough," Nik said and for some reason, his wording made me suspicious on what he'd be planning...

We were now in Alaric's apartment complex where he was living... Nikklaus still hasn't returned his apartment to him so that where we were headed...
