Chapter 16

I can't believe that this story got over 500 reads! To everyone who reads every single chapter, thank you. I don't know what I would do without you.


While the Elena gang had thought they were going to get away with threatening Mikael, our family knew that I was one offhand remark to becoming enraged. While I am usually a kind person who offers people more chances than they deserve, once you get me angry it's game over. You hide out in a bunker and hope that I don't find you.


The one thing about royalty is that we love to feast.


"Sister, when are we going to strike?" Henrik asked at the family meeting. For the first time, we were here together as a family. Together as one. Always and forever had finally come true, the Mikaelsons would strike as one, as a family.


"Tonight. I am sick and tired of Elena and her bullshit. I've let her slide along for too long. I hope that you have all of the blood that you need, Nik, because I don't think that I'll be able to control myself if she makes another comment about my family. You have allowed her to live long enough, it is time for her to die," I said. Turning to Nik, I gave him a hard stare. He just lowered his head and nodded. He knew that he may have to sacrifice some things in order to keep our family together.


"Jeremy says that Elena is going to find Katerina tomorrow to wake up Mikael. I think that we have a chance to win him over. Jeremy is a good person. Elena doesn't deserve a brother like him. Please, just keep him alive throughout this whole thing, he deserves to live a good life," Henrik pleads the young Gilbert's case.


"I agree. I have him in some of my classes. Kid's really cool. I don't think that he even likes his sister at this point. He stays because she's family. I think that we can all respect that. I mean, look at all of the shit we've done," Kol points out.


"We won't harm Jeremy. He is an innocent in all of this. He will not pay for the sins of his sister. I give you my word, brothers," I promise. Elijah looks satisfied with my promise, giving his usual smirk.


"It is settled. Kol, Finn, Henrik, and Elijah in one car and Astrid, Stefan, Damon, and I in the other. Make sure that we don't look too conspicuous. We need the element of surprise," Nik confirms. Everyone nods their heads.


It was time to feast.

Elena would have to be an idiot to not be afraid of us. Unfortunately, that is exactly what I think she is. We had caught her outside before getting in the house. "Hello, Elena, long time no see. I see your heart is still beating. What a shame that you would wish the opposite for me and my brother," I taunt her.


"What do you want, Astrid?" She whispers, trying to move back away from me. I forcibly grab her by the wrists, securing her place in front of me.


"God, the original doppelganger was so much better at lying about what she does after teatime. Elena, this isn't about what I want, this is about what you want from Mikael. Remember him? Yeah, the Original Hunter. Piece of work, my father. You know, the father that calls me an abomination. Did you know that words said by a parent can hurt their impressionable offspring. Shocking," I fake sadness.


"If you're trying to get me to feel bad for you, it's not going to work. You're a monster. You and your brother. He doesn't trust you. Klaus Mikaelson doesn't trust anyone. I am putting an end to you and your brother once and for all. He ruined my life! You protect a man who has ruined so many lives!" Elena shouts.


"I protect my family. If I don't, nobody else will, Elena. Maybe if you hadn't pissed off my brother he would have let you live a normal life, left you alone, but you betrayed and plotted against him. I love my brother. You are attempting to tear my family apart and I will not stand for it!" I grab her by the hair and drag her into the car that held part of my family. I was now glad that I had gone with Nik and my mates, they were the only people who could potentially save this bitch from my carnage.


"I see that you kept the doppelganger alive, love, is there a reason?" Nik questions at the driver seat. Elena tried to scream and shout but Damon put duct tape over her mouth and handcuffed her.


"I'm going to teach her just what happens when Mikael gets a hold of you. Elena, do you want to know why we all want Mikael dead and in a coffin? Well, it doesn't matter if you do or don't, you're going to get a taste of what happened to his children when they disappointed him. I'll give you the human version, you may die if I put you through what he put me through. Oh, you'll feel pain like you've never felt before. Mikael is an abusive, prideful, abhorrent man. I may not hate him like my siblings do, but I want him dead. The thing is, Elena, you and I are so different. Not because we are a case of good and evil. Neither of us are on either side of that spectrum. No, we are different because I do not hold hate in my heart. I do not hate anyone, no matter what they did or what they are. You can only see what people have done. People change, but only if you give them a chance to. I have not pressured anyone in my life to change like you have. You wanted Damon and Stefan to change their ways, I want them to be the happiest version of themselves. If that meant them being human slaughtering vampires, then so be it. I want them happy, you want them the way you think they will be happy," I sneered at Elena, who was now crying. I ripped off the duct tape that had kept her quiet throughout my speech.


"You're just going to allow this? I thought that you guys would do anything for me. You said that you would keep me safe, that you wanted me safe. This girl isn't your mate. Mikaelsons can't have mates, they're too evil. You should be with me, someone who has morals! Bonnie says that she can break the bond. You'll both be free from her forever! We can be happy here in Mystic Falls!"


"I don't understand why you still want them. They don't want you. Stefan and Damon are my mates. I've completed the bond with Stefan. I did that a while ago. After tonight, I'll be completing the bond with Damon. Bonnie is lying to you when she says that she can break the mating bond. Give up, Elena. I've won, you've lost. Go get some other brothers to screw with, these ones don't want you," I growl in Elena's direction. Damon puts his hand on my arm. Stefan puts more duct tape on Elena.


Just to spite the doppelganger, I move over in the car and kiss Damon. I move over to sit on his lap, our tongues moving with each other in perfect rhythm. I wrap my arms around his neck, moaning in content.


Nik groans from the driver's seat. "Please, no mouth sex in the car. You've made your point, little one. This is practically porn," Nik protests. Damon and I pull away from each other with a sigh of pleasure. Still sitting on Damon's lap, I kick Elena. Hard. She cries out. I just laugh at her suffering. Whoever said that Nik and Kol were the only ones who could be sadistic in this family.


Oh, Elena, the torture sessions I have planned for you tonight. After I'm done with you, you'll be too traumatized to ever hurt my family again.Β
