3rd POV

A couple of days past and when everyone except for Chloe and all the babes were out, a knock came at the door. Chloe knowing who it was, was not afraid and opened the door to face Dahlia.

"May I help you?" Chloe asked politely.

"I'm here for the babe I'm owed," she told her straight to the point.

"You're at the wrong place, sorry" Chloe shrugged and went to close the door but Dahlia kept talking.

"You must've been too young to know, but I remember. Hand over the babe and this doesn't have to get ugly," Dahlia motioned to the older version of Freya not far behind Dahlia looking worried.

"I'm sorry I didn't see you there, come in please," Chloe told Freya opening the door wider.

Dahlia thinking it's an invitation for her tried to walk in, but was stopped by an invisible barrier. It was much stronger than her for a simple spell. Seeing Dahlia struggle Freya hesitated but stepped through with no problem making Dahlia even more frustrated. Chloe laughed and slammed the door in her face.

"Come see your nieces and nephews," she smirked and gently led Freya into the family room, there were toys, snacks, clothes, a changing area, and the bassinets with the actual babes.

They were wide awake and looking around having just woken up from their nap.

"They're adorable," Freya cooed making them laugh.

"I know you can't stay long, but enjoy some time with them it can be healing." Chloe told her softly.

Freya smiled at the kindness and did just that for 3 whole hours. In that time Ansel and Felix came back and got to meet her, they had lunch and took turns helping Chloe breast feed them, and gave Freya some memories of her siblings. Freya enjoyed their company and was sad to go but she knew there wasn't anything to be done. Chloe would've broken the link but she needed something more effective to kill off Dahlia for good.

"Oh yeah one more thing," Chloe smirked at Dahlia. "My children are all Chloeson and Felixdotur not Mikealson so per your own magic agreement with Esther, you don't get shit." Then slammed the door in her face, Dahlia saw her words for what it is, the truth and could only retreat before the other Mikealsons came back.

Not long after the vampires returned and smelled an unknown seat around and in the house making them check. Chloe told them about what happened and replayed the memory for them to meet their sister, Finn sobbed and clung to Chloe like one of the babes but no one made fun of him. Just gave him the extra support he needed.

Time passed like that. They kept their promise of raising their children normally. They didn't hide the supernatural and a few once they were older triggered their Wolf curse, though none were Elves, 2 had magic. They taught them and Chloe made copies of specific grimoire sections they could keep for when they left to live their own life.

16 years later and then everything went to s**t. Mikeal figured out Chloe had the White Oak and other half of the daggers and he was pissed. Royally pissed.

He kidnapped Felix, who was out hunting and threatened to kill him unless she handed it over. Thinking fast she had 2 of the daggers in hand and only one White Oak stake.

"I burned the rest, nature is going to want to create more of them now that they're all gone," she explained to him.

They made the trade and he stabbed Felix anyway leaving him bleeding out. Chloe took some of her essence and kissed him to allow it to flow through him. They had agreed beforehand that he'd turn when the time came and this was it. The others arrived to this scene, Felix glowing gold and Chloe faintly chanting with glowing eyes. They stood around their family and protected them until she was done.

"... awakened Elf" she finished with this and Felix's eyes glowed blue in response to the call showcasing him as a water Elf.

"Let's go home," Felix told them slowly standing up with help.

'I think it's time' Chloe thought.

"Children gather," they all found a place around their mother in the living room wanting to be close leaving their dads grumbling. "It's time to go along our own paths, what have you chosen?" She told them softly then opened her heart to them.

"I'd like to become a healer and stay human," Kols daughter, Nearah hesitantly spoke first, but became more confident seeing Chloe's nod of encouragement. She had an affinity for magic and like her mother used it to help people.

"I'd like to lead the pack and stay with my love," Niklaus' son, Nick admitted softly while smiling at his mother who smiled back. He was the first to trigger his werewolf curse protecting his sister.

"I'd like to travel and find my mate then start my own family," Finns daughter, Normandi said excitedly.

"I agreed to go with her so she isn't alone," Henrik's son, Harry told them while ruffling her hair. He also unexpectedly triggered his werewolf curse at the same time as Henrik.

"I'm going to go to France and get to know our roots there then Italy to visit our roots and relatives," Elijah's daughter, Eve told them sounding sure of herself. She had an affinity for magic but only used it around her siblings.

"We're going to Greece to meet dad's family and pay our respects to their graves," one of Felix's twin, Iliana told them.

"Then we'll wing it" Felix other twin, Ivan finished cheekily.

"My babes all grown up," Chloe's started tearing up making the kids whimper in sadness and jump up to hug their mother.

"Don't cry"

"If you write, we'll visit"

"Now I'm gonna cry"

"Dad we didn't mean it, make her stop we'll stay"

"Don't hog mum you wanker"

"She was my mum first"

"Okay alright let go of my wife," Felix playfully crossed his arms and pouted.

The kids all looked at their fathers and then at each other before nodding and tackling their dads making them groan.

Rebekah and Chloe laughed at them and the kids joined in. It was a nice moment to have before everything goes bad. She's glad she got to give them this chance.

"I'm ready," Ansel whispered in Chloe's ear as he watched his family with a warm heart.

This caught all the supernatural attention and everyone turned to face their mom's bodyguard as they call him uncle. He glowed gold before his disguise was dropped and the man that stood before them looked like an older version of Niklaus and Henrik making everyone look between them.

"It's great to finally meet you Niklaus and Henrik, I'm Ansel" and all hell broke loose meaning the kids tackle him shouting "Grand-père".

"Why now?" Niklaus asked quietly and Henrik quietly nodded tearing up.

"I wanted to get to know my sons and his family first and your lovely wife saved me and your younger sister's life," Ansel explained simply.

At this everyone's head popped up and faced Chloe who was blushing. Niklaus felt tears in his eyes and not knowing how to handle it just hugged Ansel, sucked the life out of Chloe, and went to lay down. Henrik being overwhelmed hugged Ansel and then cuddled his son and silently cried.

She let everyone settle down before she went to join him, cuddling into Niklaus's side. They didn't say anything just laid there, and eventually the others joined them. It was nice.

They spent the time well packing and getting ready for their next big adventure. Once they were ready, she kissed each kid on the forehead with a protection charm and let them off into the world. Then it was just them, until it wasn't. Mikeal was back and ready to fulfill his purpose, to hunt down and kill his children especially those abominations.

He waited for the perfect moment and when they least expected he jumped out and moved to impale the closest one, Rebekah but Henrik used his vampire speed and took the stake to the heart. Mikeal seeing he was outnumbered fled using his vampire speed not know he dropped the other daggers at Niklaus feet.

Chloe knew she could not save him this time, but she could let his soul pass on. Letting them all say their good byes even the children who hadn't gotten far before they felt it, specifically Harry felt it. Once they said their good byes, Chloe gave him one last kiss before allowing his soul to move to reincarnation cycle. It'd be a while before they saw him again, but he'd live. She told them as much and they all prayed for his soul to be at peace until then.

They all went their separate ways and the Mikealsons murdered everyone in the town who ratted them out to their father before leaving. They made blood run and warned those who tried to harm them or killed them. Their children either went with the last name Coulson or Mikealson or both to honor their parents and Dahlia couldn't touch a single one. Nor any for more generations to come she'd figure out.

Some siblings were daggered, others went on rampages, and the rest ran from their father while hoping to meet again someday. She decided to bind the memories of their children to let it hurt less, and compelled them to live their lives freely until they all met again. Although it did help, That also led to this:

Finn started to feel guilty every time he killed someone and wanted to end it all. Daggered.

Elijah aided Niklaus in trying to find a way to break his curse since he was a bystander.

Niklaus controlled the daggers since they didn't affect him and sought out ways to lift his curse. He also wanted to protect his family, but bro got issues.

Kol went on a rampage and became a ripper. Not having his connection to magic was fine when he was still around her, but without it he felt empty. Daggered.

Rebekah did everything Niklaus and Elijah did and when she stepped out of line or went overboard she share the same as her other brothers daggered.

Ansel decide to travel with Chloe and Felix to find her other mates and maybe he'd find his and settle down to enjoy a peaceful life in the countryside. Chloe gave him the remedy to the werewolf curse and he became a willing test subject whenever she improved the serum.

Felix wanted to travel the world and what better way than with his wife. Physically they looked 21 and 18-19 (him and her order). And they got to see history. They got to meet other creatures. And they kept tabs on both the Mikealsons and their children. They were grandparents and would in the blink of an eye be great grandparents.

This is how they live their life.
