Chapter Sixteen
MIKAELSON COMPOUND
THE NEXT MORNING, Christy lays in Klaus's and hers bed, wearing a nightgown, gently hugging the bedcover.
Luna scurries into the bedroom, gently clutching her pink plush bunny rabbit in her arm. "Mommy!"
Luna playfully crawls onto the bed and gently shakes Christy. "Mommy. Daddy has breakfast downstairs."
Christy sits up straight with the bedcover covering the lower half of her body. "And he sent you up here to wake me up, didn't he?"
"Yep." Luna said.
"Okay, then, I'll be down stairs in a minute." Christy said.
"Okay." Luna said, and gently crawls down from the bed and scurries away.
Christy smiles to herself and she gets up from bed and gets dressed.

{Christy's Outfit}
Now, fully dressed, Christy gently walks down the stairs and into the courtyard where Luna is sitting on Klaus's lap. He feeds her a beignet and she takes a bite out of the deep fry pastry.
"It's really good." Luna said, with her small cheeks stuffed with the beignet.
Klaus smiles. "I'm glad you like it." And glances at Christy as she slowly approaches them. "Good morning, Christy."
"Morning." Christy said, and looks at the dinning table with breakfast and pastries, and gently takes a beignet and takes a bite out of it. "You're right, Luna, it's really good."
Luna smiles and takes another bite of her beignet.
"I gotta go, but I'll see you two when I get back home, okay?" Christy said.
"Okay, Mommy." Luna said, gently leaping off Klaus's lap and walking away, snacking on her beignet.
Christy looks at Luna. "She has no idea how powerful she will become."
"No, she doesn't." Klaus said, getting up to his feet. "But you and I will help her contain it."
"Yeah. But I have to go, love you, Klaus." Christy said, and plants a kiss on his cheek, and walks away.
Klaus smiles a little to himself.

THAT AFTERNOON, In her office, Mr. Woodruff and Christy are looking at her published book entitled, "The Prince And The Enchantress".
"This is gonna be a really good novel. Can't wait to read it, Christy." said Mr. Woodruff with a smile.
"Thanks, Mr. Woodruff." Christy said with a small smile. "I do hope you like it."
"I'm sure I will." Mr. Woodruff with a smile, getting up and walking out of her office.
Christy then, gets up and walks away, but stops upon seeing Lorena. "Lorena?"
Lorena grins, menacingly. "Hello, Christiana." And creates an magical gray orb and uses it to send Christy flying backwards, making her smash into a wooden bookshelf, and lands onto the carpet floor.
"It's been a long while since you and I battled each other. You were just a teenager. But now, that you've grown up into an woman, I sensed that you've become stronger and more powerful."
"What's the hell's going on here?" Mr. Woodruff asked, having heard the commotion from his office.
"Mr. Woodruff, leave. Now?!" Christy exclaimed.
Mr. Woodruff walks away.
With injuries, Christy slowly gets up to her feet, and vamp-speeds to Lorena, tackling her onto the floor.
Lorena and Christy engages into a fight, trading punches to each other. Lorena backslaps Christy off of her, making her fall on the floor beside her.
Lorena gets up to her feet, and gives Christy a magical headache, causing Christy to hold her head with her hands.
"Say your farewells, Christiana." Lorena said with a mischievous grin, increasing her magical headache on her.
Christy groans in agony pain, holding her head in her hands.
Out of nowhere, Max gently tackles Lorena onto the floor, making her cease her magical headache on Christy.
Max and Lorena exchange annoyed looks at each other as they both slowly gets up to their feet.
"Maximus." Lorena said.
"Lorena." Max said.
Lorena looks at Christy. "You still have others fighting your battles, Christiana." And disappears into dark gray smoke.
Max slowly walks up to Christy and crouches down to her. "You okay?"
"Yeah. I'm fine." Christy replied.

MIKAELSON COMPOUND
That night, in the empty courtyard, Max has told Klaus and Elijah about Christy's intense encounter with Lorena.
"How was Lorena there?" Elijah asked.
"I don't know, but she was there." Christy said.
"And where was Woodruff?" Klaus asked.
"I didn't want him getting hurt, so, I told him to leave." Christy said.
Klaus looks at Max. "And I assume that you happened to be there when Lorena showed up?"
"Ease off, Klaus." Christy said her husband, a bit annoyed. "He saved me. But one thing is for certain, Lorena has to be defeated."
"I'll see you guys around." Max said, and walks away.
But Klaus gets up to his feet. "Max?"
Max stopped walking and looks at Klaus.
Klaus sighs to himself. "Thank you, for saving my wife."
"You're welcome, I care deeply about Christy. And yes, she and I have ancient history together, but I will always be there for her, whenever she needs me." Max said to Klaus.
Klaus and Max exchange small smiles at each other. Max glances at Elijah.
"Elijah." Max said.
"Max." Elijah said.
And with that, Max walks away.
Christy slowly walks up beside Klaus. "Aww, you and Max are becoming buddies." She added with a playfully teasing small smile.
Klaus rolls his eyes with a small smile. "It's a progress."
"Christy?" Elijah said, causing her to look at him. "There's something you need to know about Davina."
Christy becomes worried.
