His angel ~a Klaus Mikaelson x OC love story~

Forgiveness and fighting

"What did I even do to make you hate me so much? Are you not a cat person?" I ask him, worried Tibbles might have caused his contempt.

Finn stares at me for a few seconds and walks off, Nik makes no attempt to stop him.

After a few seconds Nik speeds us over to where Rebekah was talking with Finn.

"What are you gonna do? Kill me?" Finn mocks, turning to face Nik.

"Oh yeah, that's right, you've got a death wish. Fine, pathetic, but fine. The thing is, I'm not gonna let you take the rest of us down with you." Nik says.

He then throws Finn against the wall and he crumples to the ground, unconscious.

I felt a sharp pain in my temple but I didn't pass out.

———

As we arrive back at the house, Nik tosses Finn into the foyer, the three of us walking in after.

"Gather your witch. Let's get his blood and get on with it." Rebekah says.

"You can't force me to help you." Finn grumbles.

"Oh, I most likely could, but why force when I can persuade?" Nik says, pointing to the staircase.

Finn looks up to see a woman I met earlier named Sage. She was pretty nice, told me I had good hair.

"Hello Finn." Sage greets.

"Sage!" Finn shouts excitedly.

Sage smiles as Finn gets up and rushes over to her. He pulls her into a loving embrace.

"Awwww! They're adorable." I say, watching the cute exchange.

"What do you know, true love prevails." Rebekah adds.

"It does occasionally have its uses." Nik mumbles. I lightly hit his arm, earning a wink.

"Easier than torturing him." Nik says with a smirk.

"You're actually insufferable sometimes." I playfully roll my eyes.

"Oh come on, you know you love me." He smirks.

"You suck." I giggle.

My laughter only grows as he holds his hand over his heart with a gasp.

"I have something to do. What do you need from me for this spell?" Rebekah speaks up.

"Just your blood and your blessing. Where are you going?" Nik questions.

"I have some unfinished business with Damon Salvatore. Ask Sage what he did to me. Then you'll understand why retribution is in order." She replies.

My eyebrows furrow. I make a mental note to ask Sage about it later.

———

Later that afternoon, I was walking with Nik to get the spell started.

I did ask Sage what happened between Rebekah and Damon. She told me the whole story about Damon sleeping with her so he could find the white oak, and she ended our little talk by making Finn apologize for almost sacrificing me.

I let out a small gasp when I look at the scene before me. Rebekah had Damon strung up by bear traps on his wrists.

"Well... look what you've caught. If you're trying to bleed him of vervain, don't you think it would be easier to hang him upside down?" Nik questions her tactics.

"I'm perfectly capable of inflicting pain, thank you very much." Rebekah mutters.

"Well, excuse me, it's not like I have any expertise in the matter." Nik replies.
