After telling Elijah Klaus and Hayley everything that has happened over a drink like malivore how me and Hope are mates and just the general things that have happened since they were gone I insist they all stay at my penthouse for the night.
I'm sitting at my mini bar as my chefs make some breakfast when Hope walks in "Good morning" I send her a smile and turn my eyes away from her amazing figure "Good morning love Would you like breakfast James is making a full English I thought it would be ironic"
She chuckles lightly and sits next to some I can smell her woody natural scent I feel her eyes burning into my side I turn to her and she has a smile on her face "What?"
"I just am so happy and you made it happen" I smile and this would definitely be the time to kiss her but I don't I stand up and go to the fridge ignoring her disappointed look "Good because it was a lot of work," I say with a bit of amusement in my tone sending her a smirk
"I hope you two did not share a bed" I look over to see Klaus walking out we did share a bed since the rooms were limited Elijah and Hayley also shared a bed "No no no...of course not but if it puts your mind at ease then me and Hope aren't dating"
He chuckles lightly and walks over joining Hope at the mini bar "I'm only joking don't worry if your mates it means we are family" my smile might as well have lit up the whole room but it fades when I realise that I still haven't told them my second name and who I am.
"Breakfast is done," James tells us and brings us food as Elijah and Hayley walk in I smile to both of them as they exchange 'Good moorings' after a while two women walk in.
"Who's this?" Hope asks as they walk in "Breakfast" I compel two girls since I'm hosting an original vampire and two hybrids "Just pour 4 drinks and then you can leave" they nod doing as I said we all eat breakfast sharing stories and laughs
"So Ava what coven are you a part of? We haven't had the pleasure of learning your last name" well this is where they try to kill me or forbid me from seeing Hope again
"Umm Williams, Ava Williams you knew my mother" their eyes widen and I take a breath "I didn't want to say anything now but it seems like you are ready to rip my heart out," I say directing my attention to Klaus at the last bit of the sentence.
I start explaining about how I was turned and then daggered since they didn't around tell them how my mother thinks they want her dead and how I killed her and then lastly how my father is still alive and that I can't find him.
"Well as much as I'd like to deal with him I don't fear a weak rough wolf and I'd rather spend time with my daughter,"
"I'll deal with him"
« « « « «
After I dropped Hope off at school I get ambushed by Lizzie and she leads me to malivore's pit and pulls me under a table as we try to guard it
"So why didn't you tell anyone?" I look at Lizzie as she whispers as I try to get comfortable under the table "Not my secret to tell" keep my voice low since there are a bunch of people walking around
"Well it was kinda your and Hope's secret" I roll my eyes and we hear Hopes's voice speaking and flirting with some boy my blood boils but I don't say anything and keep my jealousy on the inside once I hear the boy walk away Lizzie grabs Hopes leg and she gasps Lizzie lifts up the table cloth a bit
"Don't "gah" me. Get your ass under here" Hope quickly gets underneath the table she locks eyes with me and I send her a tight-lipped smile "What are two doing?
"I was forced here" Lizzie rolls her eyes and scoffs "If you mean forced by you came here willingly"
"Correction I was forced here by my guilty conscious" I was definitely feeling a bit guilty for my no-humanity stage and not checking in with friends at the Salvatore school.
"Well, we've been waiting for you. You were supposed to be keeping an eye on the portal to Malivore"
"I'm literally on top of it"
"Not on top of it enough. A zombie snuck onto campus this morning" well that's news she could have told me that instead of her rambling while being under here.
"I mean, are you sure it's from the portal?"
"It has the mark of Malivore carved into its skull. It's obviously from the portal. Maybe you were too busy flirting with the muggle" I wish I targeted that football star at the football game at least Josie broke his arm Hope looks at me and I tilt my head with an eyebrow raised
"I wasn't flirting. I was blending in" I roll my eyes she was definitely flirting but obviously, that's not my problem other than if he hurts her I'll burn him alive I smile internally.
"We locked the zombie up, which means no more portal duty is required, and you and I can hang out today"
"Why is that last part harder for me to understand than all the rest?" I chuckle lightly and Hope smiles at me and I can't help my heart skipping a beat.
"If I spend any time with Josie, I will inevitably blow your secret. You want to protect your secret. you're stuck with me"
"Okay" we all get out from underneath the table and stand up straight trying not to look suspicious
"Well as much fun this was I got more important things to do than girls' day" I go to walk away but I feel someone grab my wrist I turn around and lock eyes with Hope
"You're not leaving me you're the only thing that's going to keep me from going insane" I hear a scoff and look to Lizzie and roll my eyes I still have to break this cloaking spell somehow since I can't get the magical item from the principal's office but I can never deny Hope.
"Fine"
« « « « «
We are now at the Salvatore school after finding out there's another monster called a Croatoan which is now locked up beside the zombie so the 'super squad' are currently trying to figure out what to do with the monsters.
"Okay, squad. We have a problem, and we're down a witch because Josie's in Richmond for Commonwealth Day. Which is bad for us, because... A Croatoan came through the portal. And it killed a councilman" Me and Hope stand next to each as we watch Lizzie catch up with the group I don't know if it's the mate bond but we all find a way to be close to each other.
"What the hell's a Croatoan?" I go to speak but the girl standing next to Kaleb speaks up before me
"Hold up. The lost colony of Roanoke. Seriously? Not one of you? "
"Roanoke. It's one of the first English settlements in North America, until it just vanished without a trace." I spoke up and Hope gives me a look and I just shrug
"And the only thing left behind was a word carved on a tree: "Croatoan"Â The brown-skinned girl finishes the explanation and Kaleb looks at her weirdly "What? I'm a history nerd. Why else would I be here for Commonwealth Day?"
"Uh... I-Ignore her. Her visitation privileges are about to be revoked"
"She seems to have more information and use than you she should take your place on the super squad" the girl smiles brightly "You got that right" I chuckle lightly as Kaleb gives me and her a disapproving look
"The monster is here, and it's after Landon, so we need to get him somewhere safe"
"Okay, um, no offence, but why is some girl from Mystic Falls giving us orders?" kaleb says with a confused look and Lizzie and Landon speak up at the same time
"Oh, it's because she's a wolf"
"Because she's a witch" Lizzie sighs "Most importantly, she knows how to kill monsters"
"That's so cool what about you?" the girl next to Kaleb asks me with a smile on her face it seems she has taken a liking to me "I'm a tribrid Wolf, Witch, vampire" her smile widens even more and she mutters 'nice' underneath her breath.
"Wait, guys. What about the zombie? I thought Malivore could only release one monster at a time"
"Yeah. That's what we all thought" Hope speaks up and Kaleb scoffs "How the hell do you know about Malivore?" Lizzie seems to panic a little but answers for Hope anyway "Oh, I-I filled her in...Yeah, She...She took down the Oni, and she killed the Minotaur although that was actually really more me"
"Wait, wait. There was a Minotaur?" Landon asks confused I'm guessing that's the monster from yesterday.
"Yeah. Not everything's about you" Lizzie says as she rolls her eyes and then kaleb speaks up again accepting that Hope is staying to help "All right. So, then, what's the plan, Miss Were-witch?"
"The plan is that Ava and I will take Landon, and put a barrier spell around him..."
"Oh, Wh-What she means is that Ava and I will babysit Landon while everyone else is at Commonwealth Day while Hope does her whole monster hunting deal" I look at Lizzie confused and she just gives me a look to go along with it so I don't protest Hope looks upset but I don't know why.
"That is a great idea. And Do you know who should go with her? Rafael" Landon says with a smirk and I look at Rafael who has a grateful smile great another person with a crush on Hope
"I can help with research," the brown-skinned girl whose name I still haven't learnt says and kaleb scoffs "Yea from the safety of the hotel"
"Or She can come with me we can study in the library I would rather that than monster hunting" the girl smiles and turns to kaleb
"Yea I'd rather that too"
"It's not safe," he says and looks at her "She is safest with me" he sighs and turns back to her "Ok but keep close to Ava" I smile because I'm hoping it will keep my mind off of Hope.
"Okay. Super squad disassemble or whatever" Hopes says and turns to me with a glance I can't decipher.
We all walk and Lizzie grabs my arm and pulls me and the girl away from everyone else "What hell if I'm alone with Landon I might spill the secret"
"That seems like Hopes's problem"
I walk off with the girl and I turn to her "So what's your name?"
"Kym"
"So Kym we can go to the library and I could also show you some magic too" she smiles and nods her head.
« « « « «
Me and Kym have been sitting in the library talking and laughing I showed her a few harmless spells a comforting spell and fire spell and an electric spell. That's when my bracelet glows and I sigh and turn to Kym
"I need to go I'm going to take you to Kaleb's room" she nods and we stand up I take her to Kaleb's room where Kaleb Mg and some other person are "hello? I have to go help Hope ill put a barrier spell up for you guys"
"The monster can walk through any barrier spell and it can only be destroyed by the witch who summoned it"
"Great we'll I still need to help Hope so I'm dropping Kym off in the safety of your hands" Kym walks into the room and jumps onto Kaleb's bed and picks up a book "Thank you, Ava, your much more fun than my brother" I chuckle lightly and walk off in search for Hope
"You were gonna tell Landon everything. We had a deal you don't tell anyone that I'm back" I hear their voices I walk to the voices and find them in the gym
"Hello?" Lizzie jumps at the sound of my voice as I walk in "what's going on?"
"If you didn't abandon us then you would know" I roll my eyes and she goes to close the door but jumps again when an arm stops her from closing it
"We are so screwed," Lizzie says as we all walk backwards
"Uh, it feeds on secrets, right? So let me have it, all of it"
"I don't have any secrets"
"And I prefer to die with dignity" I chuckle lightly even when faced with death she wants to be stubborn
"Okay, fine, I'll start. Um... I stole your jade butterfly clip in fifth grade" Lizzie gasps and has a shocked face "I loved that clip"
"Umm I also kissed Landon that time he was stuck in the cellar" now it's my turn to be shocked "What the hell Hope that's a big secret"
"We weren't even together and you kissed Penelope that night too" Hope exclaimed Oh yeah I kissed Penelope I forgot about that "She kissed me" I mutter up my breath "Yea and Landon kissed me"
"Not to interrupt but there's still a monster pursuing us"
"I also had a crush on Josie for a week when we were 14" I chuckle lightly because they had a crush on each other at the same time
"Read my lips: the two of you are never happening" No they won't be
"Uh, Lizzie? Focus"
"Okay, um, I accidentally killed your hamster. I siphoned you to cheat on finals" I chuckle lightly "You had a hamster" she gives me 'really? now?' look and I just laugh lightly
"And I actually think you're kind of cool" this makes me laugh more and they both glare at me my laugh stops when the monster screeches "Okay, it's not working"
"I could think of a reason why" I state to them and Hope gives me a knowing look
"Yea It's not gonna stop until everyone knows the secret we've been keeping from them: that I'm back" the doors fly open and Josie walks in "I'm back, too" she starts chanting a spell one I'm not familiar with once she finished she falls to the ground and I raise an eyebrow and look at the two beside me
"Um...What was that?"
« « « « «
Turns out Josie's spell was a memory spell and she did it on everyone so now everyone knows about Hope being back. Me and Hope drive back to my penthouse in silence when we walk in to see Klaus Hayley and Elijah sitting down I'm guessing they have been shopping since they are all changed and I only have my clothes here
"Hello Little wolf," Klaus says as he spots Hope I grab a drink as Hope joins them I take a sip and closing my eyes hoping the one sip will take all the stress of today off my shoulders but it doesn't
"Ava?"I look over and see four pairs of eyes looking at me "yes?" I walk over and stand near Hopes's chair looking at them "We are leaving for New Orleans we wanted to thank you for reuniting our family and for your hospitality" I smile at them and nod "Of course, it was no problem"
There definitely were some problems but all those problems looked a bit like easy challenges I was willing to face for Hope. I hear Klaus chuckle lightly "We all know that's a lie but you faced the challenges for Hope so we will forever be grateful" I nod and send him a smile "I'm going go to bed Goodnight Mikaelsons. Marshall"
They send me a smile and I walk off and get ready for bed as I'm about to get in Hope walks in "Hey I wanted to talk to you" I sigh knowing that it probably will be about her wanting to leave with her family "Could we talk about it in the morning? I'm really tired" she nods and I hear her get into bed snuggling up to me I freeze but after a few seconds relax into her arms and I hear her sigh happily and that's how we fall asleep in the comfort of each other's arms.
