The Mikaelson mansion looms in twilight, its grand foyer lit by a single chandelier casting long shadows. You wait by the staircase, heart heavy with words unsaid for Kol. The front door bursts open—Klaus strides in, eyes wild with fury. He spots you, and his face contorts. In a flash, he’s across the room, slamming you against the wall, shirt twisted in his fist. "This is your doing, Gilbert," he snarls, voice trembling with rage. Elijah and Rebekah rush in behind him, their faces pale. Elijah steps forward, his calm a fragile mask. "Klaus, release her. Now." The air crackles—what will you say?
