I woke up screaming in Alexander's grasp as he held me down from thrashing.

"Sonya!" My screaming died down and I slowly lifted up my left hand to his face to see if it were truly him. "I'm here."

I've found you Sonya.

"Niklaus is alive." I said worriedly. Alexander looked scared but soon was replaced with denial.

"That's impossible I killed-"

"I felt him Alexander. He knows you changed me. The transition must have triggered something," I said looking into Alex's eyes with fear. He in response pulled me into his embrace tightly.

"I'm not losing you again." He grabbed my chin making me look up at him. He kissed me softly as reassurance. After we parted I looked around in the unfamiliar room. Alex must have noticed and laughed. "I had to bring you to the Lucius coterie."

I looked at surprised and impressed. "Lucius? You're a master?"

He smiled in response. "Come on, I want you to meet everyone." We walked out of his bedroom which was extremely large. Stepping out into the hallway was beautiful. Across from the Alex's bedroom was a garden. We walked across the small round garden which appeared to be in the building but there was no roof. It was dark outside but the garden itself was well lit to where it looked extremely breathtaking.
As I looked around in the garden I noticed it. In the distance I could see the small pinkish red flowers. I let go of Alexander's arm and slowly walked towards it. The path had tree walls like a maze and was stunningly covered in small white roses. Finally as I made it to the beautiful red flower a tear fell down my cheek.

Middlemist Red.

"You made a memorium for me," I whispered as I slowly touched the flower. They had been my favorite but they were and still are rare. I looked up to see a statue of me. My hands clasped infront of my chest as I smiled. It was made from marble. It looked beautiful.

"You were the light in the darkness." I turned to look at him raising an eyebrow. He smiled sadly as he continued. "After you died I went to a dark place for awhile. Luckily I had friends to keep me straight especially Katherine but not enough to keep me okay. When I became a Master I made this garden. I went searching for the flower by the way was extremely difficult. So I made this part of the garden dedicated to you. Everyday I came here. Just looking at you helped me get through it even if it was just a statue." He turned to me and wiped the salty tears from my cheek with his thumb.

I gently grabbed his hand and softly kissed his palm. "I'm here now."

We walked out of the garden and continued on to our destination which turned out to be a significantly large dining room. People stopped chatting as we walked into the room. We made our way to the front onto a platform that looked over everyone.

"A long time ago I lost my wife to Niklaus's men. A lot of you have been there to know the story. Now my wife is here. Alive and well. So far I don't know how or why but I will and as so you embrace our new family member." Suddenly Alexander's voice slowly faded away replaced with a ringing noise. Something wasn't right. I could feel deep down. On instinct my fangs came out as I went into defense mode.

People gasped as I ran through the crowd in inhuman speed. I found myself in a large room. I heard yelling and crashing as someone was thrown through a large brick wall infront of me. The man thrown slid to my feet unconscious. I slowly looked up from where the man to be thrown to find a man with gold eyes and fangs growling at me.

"Craven."
