Katherine is certain that this man will be her aid, and her ticket to eradicating Emily finally. Of course, she won’t be dumb enough to allow him to defeat Louis and have his pack, she’ll only have to play along with him until she gets what she wants.
It’s a shocker that Louis still cares about Emily, even after everything that transpired between them. She wonders why it’s hard for Louis to erase that bitch from his mind, it always keeps her in an awkward position when trying to soothe him.
Katherine also thinks about making pups, this will be a good reason to tie Louis down. Louis needs something that will make him forget about Emily and once they have children, Emily will be out of his mind.
So following Stefan gave her a new hope that she’ll succeed this time around, a man who has everything mapped out is what she needs. However, she still reminded herself that she must be smart and play her cards well to avoid total loss.
Stefan is excited, he feels close to fulfilling his dream. Once he becomes Alpha of the Crescent Moon pack, he’ll wage war on every single pack and conquer them just like he defeated the leader of the rogues. The rogues’ army is by his side and now he needs the title to be able to complete his quest.
Emily, like a good housewife, had already prepared dinner and was patiently waiting for him. She seemed to be dozing off but sprang to her feet when she saw him enter.
“Stefan, how did it go with Louis?”
Stefan chuckles loudly, he enjoys seeing her scared and curious. He grabs her hair and twists it roughly, Emily yells in pain, she is pretty sure that her scalp will be sore by the time he’s done with it.
“Are you that desperate to leave me?” he asks.
“I just want to know how the meeting with Louis went, is it too much to ask?” Emily says hurriedly.
From the window, Katherine watched with satisfaction as Stefan pulled Emily’s hair. The perfect man she needed, but she didn’t know how she’d approach him. Stefan does not look like a man she should mess with anyhow.
Stefan lets go of her hair, “Fine, I’ll tell you. It’s only a matter of time before he gives up his pack and Alpha title for me in exchange for your freedom, but what if I decide not to give you to him?”
Emily’s mouth falls open, and Stefan is planning something cunning. She must find a way to get out of here in time to warn Louis against that idea. The issue is how she’ll escape the second time.
“You better stay out like a dog and wait for the events to unfold, you’ll see how I’ll outsmart Louis and make all their lives miserable.”
Katherine tries to adjust, but she accidentally pushes down a teapot that falls with a crashing sound. Stefan turns to the window, he sees a shadow retreating.
“Wait here,” he says to Emily.
He goes outside to see a woman running towards a car, he should have sensed that she was following him all along. He rushes to her and grabs her neck from behind, trying to choke her to death.
“Who sent you? Was it Louis?” Stefan roars.
“No, I’m Katherine… I came to find you,” Katherine says.
On hearing her name, Stefan lets go of her neck. He recognizes the woman that Louis had married instead of Emily.
“What are you doing here?”
“I followed you because I wanted to speak with you,” Katherine replies.
“Speak to me about what?”
“I want us to be in alliance.”
Stefan bursts out laughing hilariously, “You want us to be in alliance? How can I trust you?”
“Because we both want something that we have. You want the pack and I want Emily, if we work together we can achieve a lot more than what our goals are.”
Stefan reasons what Katherine says, it makes more sense to him now. They could achieve a lot more if they work together.
Although he still does not trust her, Katherine might look convincing but he is not entirely convinced. She can’t give up her pack so easily for him, he’ll be watching out for her.
“Fine, we have a deal. Let’s work together to achieve so much more but if I ever find out that you’re lying to me or possibly planning to betray me, I’ll kill you.”
Katherine is not scared of his threats, she is a woman who has dedicated so much of her time to trying to get what she wants, and a mere man will not stop her. All it takes is to make sure that she satisfies her desires first then take a twisted turn.
Emily is watching them. She recognizes Katherine immediately, she realizes that Katherine is here for malicious intent which will not be good for her. Fed up with listening to Stefan and being held hostage by him, Emily sneaks out of the house with Stefan’s car keys. She enters the car with the highest speed limit and waits patiently for the time to move.
“I think we should start doing this now, hand Emily to me. I want to handle her in a way that it’ll be hard for Louis to locate her, I want her to be in my care,” Katherine requests.
Stefan laughs out loud but accepts, “Let me bring her for you.”
He enters the house to find the door open, Emily must have escaped while he was outside with Katherine.
“Katherine, she’s run away!” Stefan yells.
“What? how’s that even possible?”
“Don’t worry, I know how to find her.”
He enters his car and drives out, leaving Katherine there. Emily starts the engine and drives off, almost hitting Katherine who enters and races after her.
To ensure that Stefan will not follow her too, Emily goes in the opposite direction. She’ll figure out a way to go to see Louis after she is rid of Katherine.
It’s time for them to pay for what they’re doing to her.
