"It's the least you can do after sticking a dagger in my heart." Kol said as Klaus' eyes met his.

Klaus frowned at him and glanced at Imogen, who smiled encouragingly at him.

The Original hybrid sighed, giving in. "Alright." he said, smiling. "Why not?"

Kol smiled triumphly as a smiling Imogen and Rebekah glanced at each other.

Klaus stood up from the couch and handed the noirette his sketch of her. "I didn't have nearly enough to drink last night, what with you trying to murder Rebekah's date." he said and walked past Rebekah towards the door.

"Yes, please go, Imogen, myself and this house had enough men rolling around." Rebekah told her older brothers

"Just like you, Bekah." Kol taunted and points at her.

Imogen smiled widely before she burst out laughing. Kol winked at her and waved goodbye.

In anger, Rebekah threw her shoe at Kol. "Good riddance, both of you!" she yelled.

"Come join us later, love!" Klaus yelled from outside to Imogen then he left the mansion with Kol.

Imogen looked at Klaus sketched and smiled softly. The Original hybrid had once again drew her sitting beside him.

Rebekah walked over to the door to retrieve her shoe when Elijah called her name as he entered the living room, holding Esther's burnt sage.

Rebekah sighed. "Not you too, Elijah."

Elijah looked at the noirette then back to Rebekah. "I'm worried about mother. Have you not noticed her strange behavior?"

"She's been dead for a thousand years. What's strange for her?" Rebekah said.

Elijah walked closer to his little sister as Imogen made her way over to them. "Burnt sage." he said and showed the blonde the burnt sage he took from the study. Rebekah took the burnt sage from him. "She was doing a privacy spell."

"You know she fancies such things. Why don't you ask Finn? He's been doting on her." Rebekah told him.

"I don't trust Finn. He hates what we are, he always has." Elijah said nonchalantly.

Rebekah shakes her head. "That's not true. And as for mother, she returned for one reason, to make our family whole." she told him as Elijah and Imogen exchanged a look as the blonde continued speaking. "She loves us. What trouble are you looking to find?"

With that, Rebekah turned and walked away leaving both Elijah and Imogen, staring at each other.

"I must speak to Elena." Elijah stated.

Imogen nodded. "She knows what Esther is planning. Make her tell you the truth, Elijah."

Elijah nodded. "I will."

"Take her to the woods. The same place were we used to play as children." Imogen instructed. "I'll be there but I have to meet up with Nik and Kol at the Mystic Grill."

Elijah smiled as he placed a gentle hand on her cheek. "I'll see you later then, love."

Imogen smiled back and nodded. "I'll be quick."
