"It's nice to meet you all. I was hoping I could ask for your help." Diana said

"Follow us." Henry said turning to walk away with the rest of the pack following and Diana eagerly followed after them

A large cabin was in the middle of the clearing with a few smaller ones surrounding it, they had their own community out here and Diana found herself feeling envious of the way they lived. It reminded her a lot of how she lived in Vermont.

Diana nodded in thanks at Henry's son, Ethan as he held the door for her before she followed Henry and the rest of his family into what looked like the living room.

"Please have a seat." Henry gestured to the chair and Diana complied

"Thank you. As I said before, I wish you no harm. I only wanted to ask for your help." Diana said

"With what?" Eliza asked with a raised brow

"You see. A thousand years ago I got married to the love of my life, his name is William Audovera. His father Augustus was the alpha of the Audovera pack and William was next in line. Before that could happen my parents turned us along with my siblings into the original vampires, only for us to find out that one of my brother's and William kept their werewolf sides and were hybrids and I was a tribrid. Basically to punish me for her own sins, my mother placed a sleeping spell on William and he disappeared before my eyes. I have been trying to break the spell for a thousand years and finally figured out how to do it but it requires some ingredients. One of them is the blood from a blood member of the Audovera pack." Diana explained taking a second to look down at her hands

"And that's where we come in? You want our blood to break your spell." Margaret spoke and Diana nodded

"Yes. I don't need much, just I vial full and I would be in your debt." Diana said pulling the vial along with a sterile needle and catheter she would use to draw the blood out of her pocket

"Why should we help you? We don't owe you anything." Josiah spoke up and Diana raised her brow in amusement

"You're right you don't owe me anything. But let me make one thing clear, meeting with you like this and telling you my story is only a formality. I will get the blood I need one way or another but I would rather not burn bridges with my husband's ancestors. The choice is yours." Diana said clenching her jaw

"There will be no need for any dramatics. I am the alpha you can have my blood, the only condition being that you bring him here for us to meet. Family is sacred in our pack." Henry said and Diana nodded

"Deal." Diana opened got everything ready and drew enough blood to fill the vial before putting it back in her pocket and throwing everything else away. "Thank you for this."

Henry just nodded and Diana shot everyone a thankful smile before moving to leave.

"Good luck." Margaret called out and Diana gave her a smile

"Thank you." Diana nodded before leaving

The walk back to her car was much more enjoyable now that Diana knew she was one step closer to breaking the spell. The only ingredient she needed was the heart of a virgin, but she already planned on using someone from Mystic Falls to send a message. Preferably someone close to the Mystic Falls gang, maybe the little Gilbert boy.
