"ARE YOU SURE IT'S NOT TOO MUCH?" Violet repeated for what seemed like the hundredth time to Rebekah.

She looked at herself in the mirror, nervously messing with her usual red necklace. Violet was clothed in a large, maroon ball gown, a sweetheart neckline with the bodice covered in a slightly lighter red lace fabric and everything below the waist poofing out elegantly. The color of her dress complimented her skin tone and wavy blonde hair perfectly. Violet felt more beautiful then ever but at the same time, like usual, her insecurities were getting in the way.

The vampire gave her an exasperated sigh. "Yes, for the last time. You look beautiful. Nik will love it, I promise. Besides, I would never let you go out there looking anything less than a goddess. Us girls have to stick together, don't we?" Violet grinned in response and linked arms with Rebekah, exiting the room.

As they entered the ballroom, it seemed as if all eyes were on the two girls. But only one pair of eyes mattered to Violet.

Across the room, was Klaus, staring at Violet as if he had never seen a woman before. In his eyes, she was the most gorgeous creature had had ever laid eyes on and be surely could have  killed everyone in the room for looking at his soulmate the way they were.

As the human approached him, his smile grew as he admired her. "Good evening, flower. Might I say, you look more than magnificent. Words cannot explain how beautiful you are." He complimented her with a fond smile.

Violet's face grew hot as she smiled at the ground. "Thank you. You look amazing as well." She grinned.

Klaus suddenly looked over to the staircase, spotting Elijah walking up. "If everyone could gather, please." The nobleman announced.

The hybrid then looked back at Violet. "My family is about to make a toast. Join us."

Violet went to decline, not wanting to intrude but he quickly cut her off. "I believe Rebekah labeled you as an 'honorary Mikaelson' did she not?" The human sighed in defeat and allowed him to lead her up the stairs where she stood with the rest of the family.

The petite blonde could see her former group of friends, Elena and Caroline, the Salvatore's and Matt, all staring at her as she stood proudly like she was actually apart of the family.

"Welcome, thank you for joining us." Elijah greets the guests as Esther descends down the stairs. "You know, whenever my mother brings our family together like this, it's tradition for us to commence the evening with a dance." Violet gives her soulmate a unsure look, but only received a small grin in response.

In the crowd, Damon and Stefan murmur to each other, staring at Esther but Violet is too busy admiring Klaus to notice. Feeling her stare, the hybrid looks over and gives her a puzzled look. "What?"

Violet just beams and grabs their hands, intertwining their fingers. "Nothing. I'm just really happy." She replies, the soulmates smiling at each other as Elijah speaks.

"Tonight's pick is a centuries-old waltz, so if all of you could please find yourselves a partner, please join us in the ballroom."

They enter the ballroom along with the rest of the guests, Give Me Love by Ed Sheeran sounding from the speakers. Violet closes her eyes, letting the soft guitar chords soothe her rapid beating heart. Being around Klaus did things to her that she couldn't control but honestly, she was sure she wanted to.

As they danced across the floor, Klaus glanced at the blonde, now a few inches taller due to her heels, and smiled fondly. "You know, you're quite the dancer." The hybrid commented.

The human giggled and shook her head. "I ran for Miss Mystic Falls a while back. I've had training."

Klaus looked at her with a curious expression. "I never pegged you as a pageant girl."

"I'm not." Violet sighed and shrugged lightly, being careful not to stumble. "But my mom made me. Caroline won, which was actually a relief because being in the pageant was nerve wracking enough. I don't know what I would have done if I actually won." Klaus grinned at her but before he could say anything, she was spun and switched into the arms of Kol.

The younger Original smirked at her. "Hello, darling. I don't believe we've been able to have a decent conversation yet, have we?"

Violet chuckled nervously and shook her head. "I don't think so." Kol's smirk fell to a simple smile. "I'm sure Nik has told you this already--he's very smitten with you if it isn't obvious--but you do look wonderful."

The blonde blushed. "Thank you. Bekah did most of the work. Under all of this make up are red marks from all the plucking she did."

"I don't doubt it." Kol chuckled. There was a pause before he looked down at her with a serious expression. "You know, I've haven't seen my brother as happy as he is with you in a very long time." Violet looked at him, not believing his words. "I'm sure that's not true-"

"No, I'm serious. Nik, as I'm sure you've noticed, is extremely power hungry. The rest of us, we got in his way of that power, so he daggered us. He's usually vicious and cruel but around you, I don't think I've seen him look at someone like that."

Violet took a moment to soak in the vampires words. She thought back to when Elijah was the only vampire in town. How he described Klaus as such a monster and how disappointed he was to have the hybrid as a brother. But the Klaus that was presented to Violet, was no monster, nor was he a disappointment. She remembered how scared she was at the thought of having him as a soulmate, consider his reputation. But the way he acted around her, was never evil or cruel. No, he was the opposite. Klaus was gentle and sweet towards her, loving she might even say. Violet had no clue why it took her so long to notice.

The petite blonde looked up at the youngest male Original, and smiled warmly. "You know, you're not as bad as your family makes you out to be, Kol." She said in a teasing tone.

Kol smirked mischievously. "That's just because we've only known each other for a day. Just you wait, you'll find out why they call me the wildest Mikaelson."

Before Violet could say some sarcastic remark back, the dance ended.

━

Up in Esther's study, a knock sounds from the door causing the witch and the eldest Original to look up.

"That could be the girl." Says Esther, the burning sage releasing smoke. Finn walks to the door, revealing Elena. "You're alone. Wise choice."

Elena enters, giving a wary look towards the herb in the witches hand. Esther smiled slightly. "It's only sage. I've spelled it so we can speak freely without fear of being overheard." She looks towards her son. "That'll be all Finn, thank you."

"You must have a million questions for me Elena." Esther says once Finn had left. "Please." Esther gestures towards the sofa, both of the women taking a seat.

Elena looks at the witch with a puzzled but curious expression. "How are you alive? Are you a ghost? Or..."

"Not exactly." She replies. "When I died the witch Ayana preserved my body with a spell. She was a close friend of mine, an ancestor of your friend Bonnie."

Realization shows on the doppelgängers face. "So that's why only Bonnie and her mother could open up the casket."

"They complete the Bennett bloodline." Esther confirms. "I drew power from them and their ancestors who were with me on the other side." Interested in the story, Elena leans forward. "So you've been on the other side for a thousand years?"

Esther's face became neutral as she spoke. "Nature's way of punishing me for turning my family into vampires." Before the moment could become awkward, the witch continues to speak. "But there is a way for me to undo the evil I created."

Elena looked at the woman, a bit confused. "You're gonna help us kill Klaus, aren't you?"

"One thing at a time Elena. For now, I simply need your help."

━

Outside, Violet stands, admiring the decorated horse with a smile.

Klaus comes behind her silently. "You like horses?" Violet jumps, slightly startled but hen gives her soulmate a small smile and nods. Her face drops slightly, a sigh escaping her lips. "When I was six, my grandmother died of breast cancer. Around a year later, my grandfather died of a heart attack. It was around that time that everything with my dad started to happen." She said, swallowing thickly.

Klaus gave her a sympathetic, but understanding, look, stepping closer and placing a comforting hand on the small of her back. Violet cleared her throat. "But before they passed away, they had a farm. They had this huge piece of land that was filled with animals. The horses were my favorite. There was one, his name was Bentley...he was so beautiful and I loved him. But when my grandparents passed, he was sold along with the rest of the farm."

The hybrid pulled her closer to his body, allowing her to lean her head back and rest on his shoulder as she listened to him speak. "You know, horses are the opposite of people. They're loyal. My father hunted me for a thousand years and the closest he ever came was the day he killed my favorite horse. He severed its neck with a sword as a warning."

Violet laughed bitterly. "I guess that's one thing we have in common. Our dads were dicks." She says, her soulmate letting out a chuckle.

"One thing out of many." He mumbles, though she could clearly hear him to to his mouth being close to her ear. "Come now, they'll be doing a toast inside soon."

━

"I understand Rebekah shared the story of my family." Esther speaks as she lights two candles then proceeds to blow out the match. "How I upset the balance of nature by turning my children into vampires."

"She said you did it to protect them from the werewolves." Elena responds.

Esther pours liquid into a intricately decorated chalice. "It's true. But in no time at all, they began to feed on human blood. They ravaged the town with no remorse. Eventually, Niklaus turned against me."

Elena sighs and steps forward. "How are you gonna kill him? He's immortal."

The witch turns around, a dangerous look in her eyes. "It will take time, magic, and your assistance."

Elena gives her a confused look. "What do I have to do with it?"

"My children believe I'm holding this ball to celebrate our reunion. But in truth I've gathered them together to perform a ritual. The first step requires blood from the doppelgänger." Slightly afraid, Elena takes a step back. "Only a drop." Esther assures. "Its essence will be in the champagne toast later on this evening. Will you do it or shall I?"
Esther asks, holding a long thin knife in her hands.

The brunette looks taken aback, but after a moment's consideration she removes her glove and hold out her hand. Before any blood could be given, Esther remembers an important detail and stops them. "One more thing." Elena nods for her to continue. "I should warn you, your friend, Violet, her life is already linked to Niklaus' due to their soulmate bond. He dies, so does she."

Noticing Elena's now conflicted look, the witch takes to make a convincing statement. "I know you do not want your friend to die, but we both know that it's a small price to pay for the demise of my family. After all they've done to you, your friends and your family...what's more important?"

Feeling ashamed and guilty, Elena only nods and lets Esther take her blood.

Collateral damage. Elena thinks to herself.

━

Crystal rings in the main room of the mansion, all the guests attention going to Esther who stands at the top of the stairs, a class of pink colored champagne in her hands.

"Good Evening, Ladies and Gentleman. Waiters are coming around with champagne. I invite you all to join me in raising a glass." Klaus and Violet grin at each other, each taking a glass of champagne from a tray. "It provides me with no greater joy then to see my family back together as one. I'd like to thank you all for being part of this spectacular evening. Cheers!"

Everyone raises their glasses, saying a collective, "Cheers!" and happily drinking the alcoholic beverage without a thought.

Violet had a wary feeling in her gut, she had the same felling every time something bad would happen to her soulmate, but the joy she felt, caused by Klaus, overpowered any negative thoughts and so she shook it off.

Breaking her from her thoughts, Klaus grabs her attention by gently taking her champagne and placing both of their glasses on a tray of a passing waiter. "Come with me? I'd like to show you something."

Violet nodded wordlessly and allowed him to take her hand, leading her to another empty room in the large house.

The room he took her to, it was filled with beautiful and professional looking paintings. Paintings filled with vibrant colors and realistic images that her breath was taken away just by the sight.

Moving her attention back to Klaus, she tilted her head to the side slightly. "So what did you want to show me?"

"One of my passions." He replies, staring at a beautiful painting of a pond with a distant look in his eyes.

Violet gazed at her soulmate. "Oh. Impressive. I take it the curators at the Louvre aren't on vervain?" She asks, playfully raising her eyebrows.

Klaus chuckled. "Yeah, well that's their mistake." He tells her, earning a breathy laugh from the human.

"What about these? Where'd you steal this from?" Violet questions, holding out her wrist to show the beautiful diamond bracelet he had given her. It was a random gift, supposedly as a thank you for putting up with him and staying by his side. Klaus knew though that it was just because he wanted to give her something. Something special that she would have to remember him, just in case something happened in the future.

"Well, that's a long story." Klaus began, looking down at his soulmate with an unreadable expression. "But rest assured it was worn by a princess almost as beautiful as you."

The comment causes a pink tint to spread across Violet's cheeks, her eyes casting down the floor in flattery and slight embarrassment.

A comfortable silence falls upon the two soulmates, a few pieces of old and ragged paper with finely detailed sketches catching her eye. "Wait a second." The blonde speaks, picking up one of the sketches. "Did-did you do these?"

"Yeah, um...actually one of my landscapes is hanging at the Hermitage, not that anyone would notice." Klaus replies bashfully. "Have you been?"

Violet sighs with a shrug. "I've never really been anywhere."

"I'll take you." Klaus says immediately. "Wherever you want Rome. Paris. Tokyo?" He blurts, a warm smile painted on his flawless features.

Violet and Klaus both begin to laugh at his spontaneous suggestions. "Oh wow!"

After their laughter had died down, Violet looks up at the paintings and grins. "You know," She begins to speak, catching the hybrids attention. "The night you showed up in Alaric's body, I had one of those soulmate dreams." Klaus raised his eyebrows as if asking, 'Really?'. Violet nodded. "I had had them before but that night was the first time I actually could make out your face." The petite blonde let out a sigh. "We were in some room, and I was on the bed while you were stood across the room, in front of a canvas."

"I was painting you." Klaus stated, both of them unaware of how close they had gotten in proximity. The hazel eyed beauty hummed in agreement. "Yup. When I woke up I was really confused because...I had no idea what was going on. I had been getting these dreams for years but suddenly there was a face and I've never seen myself so-so...happy." Her gaze flickered to his, their eyes locking as they suddenly realized how close they had gotten.

"You make me happy." She concluded, looking up at him through her lashes. Subconsciously, one of Klaus' hands took position on her waist while the other moved to cup her cheek.

Violet could feel her heart pounding loudly in her chest and she was positive Klaus could hear it as well. But if he did then he didn't say anything or didn't care. Either way, Violet was terrified. Because her first kiss had yet to happen and while she would be more than happy to give that privilege to Klaus, a small voice inside told her that the Original wouldn't be satisfied with what he received.

Violet could feel something spark inside of her. Like a light switch turning on suddenly along with an unfamiliar but amazing feeling surfing through her. She had no idea what this feeling was, but she never wanted it to end.

Their faces were centimeters apart, so close that they could feel each other's breaths on their lips as they leaned in.

But before anything could happen, a faint glow of red caught their attention, causing the soulmates to break apart as if they had touched fire. They both looked down at the source of the light, her necklace; the one she wore everyday and sometimes even forgot to take it off to shower or sleep, was glowing red.

Just as they were going to question it, the glowing ceased and the necklace returned to its natural, plain, design.

Suddenly aware of what had almost happened, the two looked up at each other, an awkward silence filling the room. Violet began to stammer, her cheeks almost as red as her necklace. "I-uh..I think-I..."

Unable to form a sentence, Violet sighed in defeat, quickly fleeing the room, leaving her soulmate visibly confused and upset.

━

The next day, Violet entered the room, taking a seat at the end of the couch her soulmate was on and watching from the corner of her eye as he began to sketch another picture. A moment later, Rebekah walked in, her long blonde hair a mess and her emerald dress from the night before ripped up and wrinkled.

Kol, who sat on the couch across from the soulmates, stood up with a smirk, blocking the younger vampires way. "Well, well, well, there's our girl!"

Rebekah scowled at her brother. "Get out of my way, Kol."

The older Original stayed in place, speaking in a teasing. "Out all night. What a scandal!" He exclaims. "I trust you did better than that commoner? Matt, was it?"

"If you don't shut your mouth, the next thing to come out of it will be your teeth." Rebekah threatens, glaring at the two soulmates when they both grinned in amusement. "Don't start, Nik! Violet! I thought you were on my side!"

Klaus smiled innocently. "I didn't say anything."

Violet shrugged unapologetically. "Sorry, Bekah. Who was it though?" She questioned. At the death glare she received, Violet put up her hands in defense. "Ok, ok, I'm sorry. But you're telling me later."

"I'm bored." Kol piped up. "Our sister is a strumpet, but at least she's having fun." He says with a playful smile. "I need entertainment."

Klaus looks up at his siblings. "What are you waiting for? Go on, have at it." He says, forcing a smile.

Kol made a face. "It's not fun to go alone." He protested. "Join me, Nik! It's the least you can do after sticking a dagger in my heart." Violet raised her eyebrows at the puppy dog face Kol was giving his older brother.

Now she could see why Klaus and Rebekah always called him the brat of the family.

"Okay. Why not?" Klaus agrees, not paying attention to Kol's smug smile and standing up from his seat. "I didn't have nearly enough to drink last night, what with you trying to murder Rebekah's date."

Kol sent a triumphant look towards Violet, referring to their conversation from the night before. "Told you." The blonde human playfully rolled her eyes, not noticing the jealous and confused look they were getting from her soulmate.

Rebekah glared at her brothers. "Yes, please go, this house has enough men rolling around it in."

The youngest male Mikaelson grinned, pointing at Rebekah. "Just like you, Bekah."

The female vampires jaw drops slightly, her hand flying back and then forward, throwing her shoe in their direction as she yells, "Good riddance, both of you!"

Then, footsteps began to approach, the girls looking up and spotting Elijah as he entered the room, a distressed look on his chiseled face. "Rebekah." The nobleman speaks.

Rebekah sighed in annoyance. "Not you too, Elijah."

Elijah ignored her comment. "I'm worried about mother. Have you not noticed her strange behavior?" Both girls have him a strange look. Rebekah because of the random accusation against their mother, and Violet because Esther had been nothing but lovely to her.

"She's been dead for a thousand years. What's strange for her?" She replied.

The second eldest Original holds up an unfamiliar object. Or, at least unfamiliar to Violet. "Burnt sage." He states, letting Rebekah snatch it out of his hands. "She was doing a privacy spell."

Rebekah looks at the sage for a moment, now clearly doubting her argument. "You know she fancies such things." She responds easily. "Why don't you ask Finn? He's been doting on her."

Elijah shakes his head. "I don't trust Finn. He hates what we are, he always has."

"That's not true." Rebekah protested. "And as for mother, she returned for one reason, to make our family whole. She loves us. What trouble are you looking to find?"

Elijah then finally ended the argument, agreeing that maybe he had just been overthinking things and that his accusations were wrong. Then as soon as he left, Rebekah flips around to look at Violet.

"What the hell happened between you and Nik?"

Violet looks taken aback, looking up at the vampire with a puzzled expression. "Huh?"

Rebekah rolls her eyes. "You and Nik. Something happened and it obviously wasn't something good."

The humans eyes flicked around the room nervously. "Why do you think something happened?"

The Original gives her a 'Really?' look. "It's obvious. You and Nik are usually all cuddly and affectionate and when I walked in, you were sitting at least five feet apart." Violet finally sighed, looking down at her hands. "Well, last night, we might have al-"

"You kissed?" Rebekah exclaimed, beaming from ear to ear. Violet shook her head and but her lip. "You didn't let me finish. We almost kissed." She clarified.

The taller blondes faced dropped and she frowned. "What do you mean almost? What stopped you?" Violet gripped the charm of her necklace in between her pointed finger and thumb and held it up. Rebekah gave her a blank look. "Your necklace?"

Violet nodded. "It's started to glow bring red before we could actually kiss. Then it was really awkward and I panicked and ran out."

Rebekah slapped her hand against her forehead. "Well no bloody wonder Nik was so upset last night. He came into the ballroom looking all depressed like a kicked puppy."

The Original's words made Violet's shoulders drop in guilt. She didn't know that he was upset. Shortly after their almost kiss, the ball had ended and she was already locked in her room by the time the guests had left. The first time she had seen Klaus since then was when she came in a few minutes before he and Kol left.

Rebekah winced, realizing the impact of her words. "Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to say it like that." At the humans now guilty expression, the vampire sighed and took a seat next to her, wrapping a comforting arm around her shoulders. "Look. Nik has never looked at someone like he looks at you. He's in love with you, Violet."

Said humans head shot up, her eyes wide as she looked up at Rebekah. "What?" She breathed.

Rebekah nodded, a warm grin plastered on her face. "It's pretty obvious. I mean, it's Nik for god sakes. You've been the only one who can calm him down and actually make him smile in centuries. If that's not love, I don't know what is."

━

To Rebekah and Violet's horror, Elijah was soon proven right.

Esther's friendly and motherly facade had been an act. Behind closed doors, the Original Witch had been planning to kill all of her children, which would also result in the death of Violet.

While Rebekah was sent to go and make sure Elena couldn't escape from the hole in the ground where Elijah had put her, Violet made it her mission to go and warn Klaus.

Both Elijah and Rebekah had pleaded for the human not to intervene, knowing that she may get hurt in the process. But the only thing on her mind was to go and make sure her soulmate was alive, and there was no stopping her. Violet jumped into a car owned by he Mikaelson's. Whose car it was, she didn't know, nor did she care. Her sole focus was to make it to the Mystic Grill before anything could fatal could happen.

She finally arrived at the local restaurant, running inside just in time to see Alaric push a stake into Kol's chest. "No!" She screamed out, but both the history teacher and Meredith Fell were too busy to notice.

Violet looked around frantically, her breathing going shallow when she didn't find who she was looking for.

Klaus was nowhere to be seen.

As she sprinted out of the Grill, her eyes spotting the noble Original. "Elijah!"

The two ran towards each other, meeting in the middle of the street. "Elijah, I can't find Nik." The human whimpered. Elijah looked at her in worry but a sound caught his attention, the man looking off into the distance before grabbing onto Violet and speeding them away.

They arrived at the small staircase that led to the led to the back of the Grill, the two spotting Klaus immediately. The hybrid was standing intimidatingly in front of Damon, and Stefan could be seen at the bottom of the stairs.

"Leave him! We still need him, Niklaus." Elijah speaks, announcing their presence. Violet sighs in relief at the sight of her soulmate still alive and standing. She's quick to run down the steps, throw her arms around Klaus as the hybrid embraces her with the same amount of affection.

Remembering their situation, Klaus looks up at his older brother. "What did mother do? What did she do, Elijah?"

Instead of answering the question, Elijah makes his way down the stairs and past the soulmates, speaking directly to Damon. "You tell me where the witches are or I'll have my sister kill Elena right now."

The eldest Salvatore looks up at the clock tower. "You told me we had until after nine."

Violet takes this moment to speak up, glaring at the raven haired vampire. "I'm sure Rebekah wouldn't mind starting work early."

━

All of the brothers of the Original family--minus Finn--and Violet made their way up the hill, arriving at a Pentagram made of salt and lit up torches at each point of the star, Finn and Esther both standing in the center.

"My sons, come forward." Esther says, walking closer. "Stay beside me." Demands Finn, holding a hand out to his mother. "It's okay." She responds easily. "They can't enter."

As the siblings walk closer, the flames grow violent. "That's lovely." Kol begins, a bitter smirk painted on his face. "We're stuck out here while the favorite son plays sacrificial lamb. How pathetic you are, Finn."

"Be quiet, Kol." Esther scolds, narrowing her eyes at her youngest son. "Your brother knows virtue you cannot even imagine."

"Whatever you think of us, killing your own children would be an atrocity." Elijah speaks in a low tone, anger clear in his voice.

Esther only replies with, "My only regret is that I did not let you die a thousand years ago."

"Enough." Klaus scowls at Esther. "All this talk is boring me. End this now, Mother, or I'll send you back to Hell."

The witch glared at her son, stepping forward. "For a thousand years, I've been forced to watch you. Felt the pain of every victim, suffered while you shed blood. Even you, Elijah, with your claim to nobility, you're no better. All of you. You're a curse on this Earth. Stretched out over generations." Her gaze moves to the small blonde human who still held on tight to Klaus. "I'm sorry you were dragged into this. But no one can be spared."

With tears in her eyes, Esther looks over at her children. "If you've come to plead for your life, I'm sorry, you've wasted your time."

Suddenly the ground begins to shake, Esther closing her eyes and shouting out, "No! Sisters! Do not abandon me!"

The torches flare up, Klaus instantly shielding Violet with his body, his other two brothers also cowering from the fire.

After a moment the torches die out, and when they group looks back, Finn and Esther are gone.

━

In the parlor of the Mikaelson Mansion, Klaus stands before the fire place, sipping a glass of whiskey and looking absently into the flames. Violet lays on the nearest couch, curled up in a blanket and asleep after an exhausting day.

Rebekah enters, and Klaus speaks before she could say anything. "I thought you'd have gone by now." He says quietly, looking over at his peacefully sleeping soulmate. "Elijah's leaving. Kol's fled. Esther and Finn are gone too."

"I hated you when I learned you killed our mother." The vampire said, looking over at the drawings Klaus had left on the table. "But I realize now that after a thousand years together as a family, you're the only one who never left me."

Klaus cracks a smile. "Well, aren't we a pair."

Rebekah takes out her phone and walks over to her brother, a troubled look on her face. "There's something I need you to see."

"Come to brag about your skills as a torturer?" He jokes upon seeing the video of Elena playing on the screen.

"Look at the images on the wall behind Elena." Rebekah tells him. "The Natives told the story of our family history, look at the images on the far wall."

Klaus glanced up at her. "What is it?" He questioned.

"A Native worshipping at the Great White Oak tree." Rebekah replied. The hybrid raised his eyebrows. "And? We burned that tree to the ground."

Rebekah clenched her jaw, speaking through gritted teeth. "Look at the markings that precede it. That's the native calendar."

Klaus' face falls, realizing what she had been implying. "This can't be right."

"A White Oak tree, three hundred years after we fled back to the Old World." The younger Original says, confirming his suspicions. "There must have been a sapling, a new tree to replace the old. That tree could kill us. It's not over, Nik."

━

hell yeah I finally updated. I know it's been a while but here it is. TBH I'm not that happy with this chapter but episode 15(all my children)was really difficult to fit Violet in. But there is a lot of added dialogue so I hope you guys like that and the relationships she had built with the rest of the family. Love you all!
