“Thank you…” He whispered, pressing his face into my chest breathing in and out slowly.
Resting my chin on top of his head I wrapped my arms around his weak form. His fingers clutched the fabric of my shirt for some comfort. “Sssh, Nik. I’ve got you.”
Moving my fingers through Nik's curly mess of hair I felt him steer slightly. He blinked his eyes opened turning his head to meet my gaze. "Morning babe, who knew it would be four years before I would be the one taking care of you after a fight." I chuckled, giving him a bright smile of relief washing over me.
"Rae….wait Aurora?" He began to sit up until I pushed him down.
"Freya has her dosed with a spell. So she'll be down for a while. Lay back down."
He sighed reaching out for my hand. "You gave me your blood. You didn't have to do that.."
"Yes I did. You were barely hanging on, Nik. You needed blood before you desiccated." Intertwining my hand with his I turned my head hearing someone coming inside from downstairs. "Someone's here."
He again tried to sit up but I held his arm down. "I'm coming…uh!"
"Just stay here and rest. I'll be back in a second." I told him vamping out of the room before he fought me. Walking towards the door I recognized the voice that hollers.
"Klaus? Klaus?"
I rushed forward seeing Cami stumbling into the doorway. "Cami, What is it?"
"Something happened and you're gonna be angry, but Lucien wants you to be angry. He's trying to lure you into a trap." She babbled gripping my shoulders when I stepped towards her.
Suddenly Klaus vamped beside me asking the newbie vampire. "What did he do?"
"I told you to stay in bed!" I snapped at him.
He shook his head, taking Cami's hand in his. On her arm we could see a bite mark forming. "Promise me you won't fly off the handle and do something crazy. Promise me. Before you lose it...Klaus... look at me. I won't let you get yourself killed."
Klaus and I shared a worried glance when he asked. "Camille…"
"I just needed you to know." She breaks out weakly.
Holding her shoulder in my grasp before she collapsed towards me. "Thank you for the warning but…woah."
"You're not dying today." Klaus caught her limp body bridal style carrying her into the bedroom and laying her down.
A Few minutes later Freya and Elijah joined us in the room seeing the state she was in. Her head was laying against a pillow. Leaning back against the bedroom. "Are you all right?"
She nodded. "Yeah. Considering."
Freya came over dabbing her wound with something. "Hold still.This is going to burn."
Cami winced. "Ow. Ow, what is that?"
She told her. "It's a healing salve. Motherwort. White willow bark. The recipe's over 1,000 years old."
Cami grumbled. "So, the good stuff, huh?"
The Mikealson witch explained looking at me. "Well, it will ease the pain, dull the symptoms, but... it won't stop the infection."
"So I'm screwed." She spat.
Klaus told her reaching for my hand to take. "We're gonna do everything that we can, Cami."
Elijah entered the conversation. "To that end, a little assistance."
"I can't believe you let this happen. Now there's someone bigger than an Original vampire!" I snapped at my brother in law.
