Later that evening....

In Klaus's and Alexa's bedroom, Alexa is sitting on the bedside, glumly, fiddling with a new wooden knight that Klaus had made for Mallory.

Klaus slowly walks inside their bedroom and sees Alexa. "Have you calmed down?"

"Pretty much." Alexa says, and sets down on the wooden knight on the nightstand. "Leave me alone."

"Alexa? Don't do this." Klaus says.

"Don't do what?" Alexa says.

"Don't try to emotionally push me away." Klaus says to her. "Like I told you, whatever inner demons that we have, we defeat them together."

Alexa looks at him and her expressions softens. "I was feeding on that human girl, and I could hear her heartbeat with my vamp-hearing. And I wanted more. I'm a monster."

"You're not a monster, Lexa." Klaus says, and sits down beside her on the sofa. And gently soothes her hair with his hand. "You're the woman I love. And an amazing mother. But don't ever say that you're a monster."

Klaus and Alexa exchange soft expressions at each other.

"And Klaus, what I said to you." Alexa says.

"No worries about it, Love." Klaus says.

Alexa gently nods. Klaus kisses Alexa's forehead and gently leans their foreheads on each other's.

Alexa's Outfit

At ROUSSEAU'S, Alexa is sitting at the bar counter, snacking on a beignet.

"Hi, Alexa." Gia says.

"Gia, hi. How are you?" Alexa says.

"I'm pretty good." Gia says, sitting at the bar counter beside Alexa. "How are you?"

"I'm pretty good myself." Alexa says.

"How's Mallory?" Gia says.

"She's fine. I've been helping her with Faerie magical powers. But other than that, Mallory is amazing." Alexa says.

"Okay." Gia says with a gentle smile.

Alexa and Gia exchange smiles at each other.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

In the courtyard, Hayley Marshall has told Marcel, Alexa, Freya and Skylar that Klaus and Elijah has been kidnapped by the Strix and has been put into a Chambre de chasse.

"I had no idea that Aya was gonna take Klaus and Elijah down! And regardless, why the hell are we trusting this guy all of a sudden, huh? He's the one who ran off with Aurora the first chance he got." Marcel says, gesturing to Lucien.

"You can hardly fault a man for following his heart. Yet, the moment she started raving about firing white oak into Klaus, well... Words were said, hearts broken, veins drained." says Lucien, drinking from a blood bag to replenish himself from being desiccated.

"Okay, so, how do we get Klaus and Elijah out of the chambre de chasse?" Alexa asks.

"Well, I have a little plan." Freya says. "I would channel Finn, but he's off letting Klaus and Elijah to be destroyed. So, I'll channel Lucien. The older the vampire, the bigger the battery."

"But there are Strix witches with Klaus and Elijah, plus, Davina is with them." Alexa says. "We have to be stealthy."

"Yeah." Skylar says.

DAVILLA ESTATE

Marcel, Hayley, Alexa and Skyla stealthy walks inside. Alexa hides behind a corner, but glances at an unconscious Klaus and Elijah, laying in a pool with some of the Strix witches chanting a spell.

Alexa and Skylar nods at each other. Skylar transforms into her werewolf form and pouches on a Strix witch as Alexa gently slings a purple energy orb at some other Strix witches.

"Marcel?!" Davina says to him, a hint of betrayal.

"I'm sorry, D. But we have to get Klaus and Elijah out of there." Marcel says.

Hayley nods.

"No." Davina says, and magically slings them away with her witch magic.

"Davina?" Alexa says.

Davina looks at Alexa, a bit saddened.

"It's too late, Alexa." Aya says. Alexa looks at Aya. "The de-siring spell will be completed. And once it's finished, Klaus and Elijah will die."

"We'll see about that." Alexa says, and transforms into her Faerie form. And uses her Photokineses to gently sling Aya away, knocking her out, unconscious.

Davina starts to chant the de-siring spell on Klaus and Elijah.

Elijah awakens first, and grabs a Strix witch and pulls her into the pool with him, feeding on her. Afterwards, Elijah vamp-speeds out of the pool and fights a few other Strix vampires and witches with Skylar and Hayley.

Klaus awakens and gently leaps into the air, but Davina stops him with her witch magic.

"You had your time!" Davina says, bitterly, and magically slings Klaus back into the pool.

As the de-siring proceeds, Klaus starts to shout in pain, agony.

"Davina?!" Alexa says, worriedly, as she transforms back into her normal self.

Davina passes out as she completes the de-siring spell. Alexa and Elijah exchange worried expressions at each other as they gaze at Klaus.

Elijah gently leaps into the pool and cradles Klaus in his arms. Klaus awakens and looks at Elijah.

"I felt it leave. My sire-line is broken." Klaus says, weakly.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND

Later that evening, after the Strix, and Aya, has been terminated, Alexa is sitting in a lounge sofa, in the courtyard. Spaced out.

"Alexa?" Klaus says, slowly walking to her and sits down in the sofa chair. "What is it?"

"The de-siring spell." Alexa says, glumly. "I heard you cry out in agony. And you laid there in the pool, you were desiccated."

Klaus looks at Alexa, glumly, knowing how worried she was about him. "You're not gonna lose me, Lexa."

Alexa looks at him, glumly. Klaus gently takes Alexa's game and kisses her knuckles.

"Come with me." Klaus says.

"Where to?" Alexa says, a bit confused.

Klaus slyly smirks.

ST. ANNE'S CHURCH

Klaus and Alexa slowly walks inside Marcel's gym and walks inside the fighting cage.

"What are we doing here?" Alexa asks.

"There's one thing that you haven't done." Klaus says, and grins, mischievously. "Hit me."

"What?" Alexa says.

"Hit me." Klaus says.

"I'm not gonna hit you, Klaus." Alexa says, and starts to walk away from him.

Klaus vamp-speeds to Alexa and gently pins her to the fighting cage wall, and makes his eyes glow golden with protruding veins underneath his eyes.

"I wasn't asking Little Faerie." Klaus says. And starts to tease her, and starts to push her buttons. "Look at you, Alexa. You think you're so tough, so badass. You're nothing. And yet, Skylar left you here with me. Speaking of Skylar, I would've loved to have her in my bed. That would've been spectacular."

Alexa small smirks at Klaus, knowing that he was just saying this to provoke her. So, she balls her fist and punches Klaus in his face. He falls on the floor mat, knocked out.

Klaus falls on the floor mat. Alexa looks at him, a bit worried, seeing how hard she punched him.

"Klaus?" Alexa says.

Klaus chuckles softly and gets up to his feet. "You sure do know how to punch, love."

"Yeah." Alexa says, and offers Klaus her hand.

Klaus gently takes her hand and she helps him up to his feet. Klaus and Alexa exchange soft smiles at each other. She gently wraps her arms around his neck. He gently wraps his arms around her waist and holds her close to him.

"What am I gonna do with you, Niklaus?" Alexa says, gently soothes the back of Klaus's dirty blonde hair with her fingers.

"I don't know, Alexa." Klaus says.

Klaus chuckles and Alexa giggles. And they kiss, affectionately.
