(Previously)
It was the end of the night when I finally saw Elena again and she looked disheveled.
She quickly left without even saying anything to Matt.
She didn't see me but I watched her as she looked at Damon and Stefan with booth greed and slight hate.
Elena woke up with a groan and a searing headache.
All she could remember was blinding pain.
She blinked her eyes and saw a woman sitting by a small table filled with witchy things.
That was when it all came rushing back.
The night and all the memories that had been wiped away.
At first, she was devastated, and then she was livid.
How could they do this to her? TO HER?! They just erased half her life. Everyone was in on it. All the side glances from Jeremy, Bonnie and Caroline made sense now.
Elena was seething before Esther cleared her throat drawing her attention "would you like revenge dear? Because I need a few drops of your blood and I can kill my children as well as that little mate of theirs you hate so much" Esther said charmingly.
Elena thought about it.
Without Ally in the way she could get everything she wanted.
She was the whole reason her life went to shit.
She stole everything from her.
She took her friends, her boyfriend, her memories, hell even her little brother.
WHO DID SHE THINK SHE WAS?!
Elena looked up at Esther with a smirk before offering her hand.
Esther quickly stabbed her finger with a needle before letting her bleed into a glass.
~~~~~~~
I watched as Elena quickly left.
I knew Esther had taken her blood but I wasn't sure about everything else.
There wasn't going to be a toast so I had no idea how she was going to get the Doppelganger blood into us.
I was nervous the rest of the night, though I didn't let it show as I said goodby to all the guests.
When the guests were gone I immediately went up to my room with Nik and Elijah behind me.
Kol and Finn would distract their mother while we watched the video.
I pulled up the file on my computer and set it on fast forward so we could skip until Esther met with Elena.
Nik nervously paced while Elijah nursed a glass of brandy.
When I saw Esther lead Elena into the room I played the video at normal speed after using a privacy spell so Esther couldn't hear anything in case she walked by.
We watched as Elena got up and ran to the door.
My eyes widened when Esther said she was going to bring back her memories.
When I hear the pain-filled scream Elena made I winced.
The look on Esther's face was horrifying, she enjoyed every second of torturing Elena.
It was Elena but still, that shit was brutal.
We watched as Elena left the room after giving her blood only to be followed by Esther.
I sighed and started pacing.
"So we know she is going to link us but we don't know how. Not to mention now crazy pants remembers everything. Shit, I should tell the girls" I said before stopping suddenly and connecting to the coven.
"What the Hell Ally?!" I heard Care say into the connection.
I grimaced when I realized she was having a nice evening with Enzo before shaking my head.
"Elena has back her Memories, Esther brought them back so be prepared for her to try and pull something" I said into the convection before disconnecting quickly letting Care get back to her evening.
I came out of the connection with a shudder "they know now. Damn, do I not want to see that again" I said as I made a gagging motion before sitting down.
"What did you see love?" Nik asked curiously.
I shook my head "let's just say Care was having a good time with her mate when I interrupted" I said with a grimace.
Nik shook his head with a scowl while Elijah just raised a mildly amused eyebrow before standing up suddenly "well it looks like we will need to stop our deranged mother from killing us all. Let's get to it" he said before walking out of the room.
I laughed lightly before going into my closet and changing out of the giant dress into some sweats and one of Nik's shirts.
~~~~~~~~
When I got downstairs all my mates were sitting around the dining room.
Esther was nowhere to be found but that couldn't be helped.
"You know for a woman who insists on a ball she didn't attend much of it" I said sarcastically as I poured myself a glass of brandy.
All of my mates were nursing glasses as well.
"Yes mother dearest has always been quite fickle-minded" Kol said sarcastically.
Nik scoffed "you mean psychotic?" he asked sarcastically.
Finn nodded "yes brother I believe what was what he meant" Finn said with a small smirk.
Elijah looked at Finn impressed "well look at you brother. You can finally see the light" Elijah said sarcastically while motioning dramatically around the room.
Finn just rolled his eyes while Kol scoffed "like you were any better brother. You may have seen her crazy but you still would have given her a chance if our Darling wasn't here" Kol said as he rolled his eyes and finished his whole glass before pouring another one.
I giggled lightly because it was true making Elijah pout.
That pushed me over the edge and made me cackle.
We spent the rest of the night waiting to see what Esther would do and spending time together.

Okay guys I hope you liked it. I'm actually reading this book right now to try and see if there is anything I need to wrap up or forgot about so hopefully after I will go on a writing kick and finish a few chapters.
If any of you are GOT fans I would really recommend checking out the book "What If" in my favorites and darker books reading lists. It's one of my favorite GOT books and it only has 20K views and I thought it would be nice cuz it is genuinely a great book and I try and give you guys good recommendations. Cuz I write the types of books I read so if you enjoy this book it's a good bet you will like that one. Tho it is dark and graphic so seriously don't read it if you're under 14.
If you would like to check out any of my other reading lists I make them mostly for you guys. Cuz I like very specific genres of books that r usually hard to find so I make them into reading lists so u guys can find them without the endless searching lol.
Happy reading
