Walden could be doing so many other things during his day off. He could start his drinking early and station himself at the nearest pub. He could bother Jasper at the Leaky Cauldron or spend a galleon or two in that clandestine poker ring at one of the penthouses in Virtue Alley. Instead, Walden found himself being pulled along Diagon Alley as he dragged his heels.

There were not a lot of people that Walden found it hard to refuse. Especially if the requests they make wouldn’t end up with him bedding them in one way or another. Freya just happened to be one of the select few that Walden could just barely resist. And she knows it too. That’s why instead of closing the door on her face when she asked him to come along with her, Walden begrudgingly wore a large sweatshirt and allowed Freya to pull him along.

Elvira was absolutely going nuts being left inside her own head all the time, so when she finally shook off the fear and guilt she made a quick trip to find her other favorite Bernadotte. Freya just had this way of understanding everything and she had to figure she would be the best person to go to right now.

Unfortunately, when Elvira reached her door she began to second guess herself. She knew it had been too long since she had seen the woman and that she should have made a better effort to keep in contact, but when she wasn’t talking to Riley--well, speaking with his twin sister didn’t seem the proper answer either.

“Freya? It’s El.”

Kol was skeptical. A woman had shown up, claiming to be a relative of theirs. His older sister in fact, but he had only met her quickly in passing before deciding it was too much. Why would their parents keep this secret? Why had it taken so long for her to come back? Was she going to be different than his other older siblings? It was a lot to take in. But his curiosity was getting the better of him. He had to know for certain what was going on, that what she was saying was true and real.

So he sought her out.

“Finn seems to believe you,” he said in lieu of a greeting. Finn, while a bit distant, had treated Kol better than Elijah and Klaus. Kol felt he could at least trust Finn, as they were both on the edges of their family. Finn being maybe a little more disliked than Kol himself. But he saw Finn for who he was, and Finn had spoken up for Freya.
