"What precisely do you want and what does it have to do with this young woman?" Elijah asked Sophie. Aphrena grabbed Hayley's hand in comfort which she gladly took.

"We want to run Marcel and his vampires out of town, Klaus is the key." The doppelgänger looked up at her in shock. Marcel is nowhere near nice to the witch's but how are they gonna run him out of town he has tons of people to back him up. And as much as Aphrena liked him as a friend her bond with Hayley was stronger and she would do anything for her werewolf friend.

"Why Klaus?" Aphrena asked curiously.

"Everything Marcel knows about being a vampire, he learned from Klaus. Marcel trusts him, looks up to him and he won't see the betrayal coming." Sophie explains.

"Yes. Well, I'm sure you are aware, my brother Niklaus doesn't like to be told what to do," Elijah said which caused Aphrena to remember when Marcel said Klaus did things simply because he was told not to.

"That's why I brought you here. Marcel drove the werewolves out of town decades ago," Sophie said making Aphrena's anger grow. She never knew Marcel drove them away. He never told her. But maybe he didn't know.

"That was Marcel?" Aphrena asked in disbelief.

"Yeah, and do you really think he is going to welcome a hybrid baby to the neighboorhood? Convince Klaus to help us, and no one has to know about the newest member- of the original family." She said trying not to show her fear. Marcel drove away Aphrena's family, he never told her this, and she never knew if she was ever going to see them.

"That sounds remarkably like blackmail," Elijah said amused at her trying it on his family.

"And like a threat to me and my baby," Hayley said.

"As I said, I'm desperate," she said knowing that Elijah could easily kill her without blinking if he wanted.

He sighs then talks, "Well then I have my work cut out for me don't I? I'll be back I promise," he said to Hayley and Aphrena before leaving. The vampire stayed with her knowing she needed some good company.

"You are gonna get through this Hayley, I promise and when this is all settled I will be by your side to help. Just make sure your baby is my goddaughter or godson and we are cool," Aphrena said trying to lighten the mood which helped as the She-wolf smiled.

"Thank you so much Aphrena. You can count on being the godmother by the way." That made her smile.

I had her lay her head on my thighs as she tries to rest a little. I run my hand through her hair as she closes her eyes. I soon fell asleep.

"Make sure Andrea and Aleah are safe." A distorted voice says.

"I will keep them out of it and find a place for them." Another distorted voice says.

Aphrena wakes up slightly when she heard footsteps in the graveyard. What the hell was that?

Witches came in and got the girls out waiting for the right moment to bring them forward. Having them both was gonna play well for the witches even if Aphrena didn't know that.

"Sophie Deveraux...what is this?" A British voice ask as Sophie steps out of the shadows.

"He's all yours proceed," Elijah said.

"You know your famous in this town? witches tell bedtime stories about the powerful vampire Klaus," Sophie said not jumping into the reason he's here.
