Klaus and I got dressed and the next morning on the hunt for whoever sent the coin to us last night. Klaus bursts through the set of doors where we had kept up the vampires we took away their daylight rings from. "Rise and shine, Nightwalker Nation. If it was your aim to get my attention, then I must say you've been wildly successful. I am now singularly focused on your impending suffering."

He turned his head in my direction where I handed him the golden coin getting into a fighting stance beside him. He kicked part of a shelf so some of the wood was broken into the size of a stake. "And to whomever sent this coin and took my wife's brother and his wife and daughter... it's time to show your face."

"You messed with the wrong family." I threatened showing my fangs to them seconds before he flipped the coin into the air. Klaus staked one and bit another's neck.

One vampire moved towards me but I raised my hand. "Invidia!" The vampire grabbed his head in agony before I grabbed him by the throat ripping his heart out.

Two more attempts the same thing where I bite into the neck of one draining them off all their blood. "Averte insiguinae, a tor a ver." The other begins clawing at their skin like their blood was poisoned from my spell. Vamping forward I used my magic dragging the vamp towards me until I reached into his chest removing their heart too.

Klaus left one alive on the ground who was scrambling back to Marcel for help. "Man, don't look to me for help. Y'all lost your chance to trade loyalty for protection." Marcel refused though, flipping the vampire onto his back.

My husband vamped over to me seeing that I had blood on my mouth like he did. "Go right ahead Rae." He gestured down to the pleading vampire before I dragged him across the floor meeting my husband by one of the covered windows.

The vamp pleaded up to me with my hands on my hips. "No."

"This would mark your very last opportunity to confess." Nik warned him seeing a smirk on my face.

"Look, I don't know anything." The vampire said to him.

Klaus grabbed the vampire by the back of his jacket and with his other hand he yanked the drape covering the window back. "Well, that's a pity for you, then." The vampire without a daylight ring screamed and burst into flames.

"There's someone still here..." Throwing my hand outwards I spun on my feet choking a woman with dark black hair who had picked up the coin.

Klaus put a hand on my shoulder telling me to stop before I could kill her. "Raelyn, stop."

Dropping my hand the woman collapsed onto the ground gasping through her next words. "It's me you're looking for......Perhaps we should talk."

It wasn't that long before Klaus had trapped the woman in our basement and was being drained of vervain. He had chained her wrists and ankles to the floor with me remaining leaned up against the wall. "You know, for someone who organized this little summit, you're woefully short on details. So I'm going to ask you one last time. Where are you keeping Hayley and her family?"

"She's not gonna say anything, Nik." I pointed out seeing that she hadn't moved to say a word. "It would take time but I could do a painful mind dive on her."

Nik shakes his head waving his hand at me, sighing at the silence the woman was giving us. "No need, heretic queen. You've only just begun torture. I can handle this one and you can just watch."

"You knew we'd have this little chat. No doubt you binged on vervain till your throat was red and raw. And now, sadly, drip, drip, drip...All over the floor it goes." My husband vamped forward moving the woman to sit upright and he shoved the meal chains further into her wrists.
