After the events that occurred earlier that night with Hayley and Sophie, Elijah took it upon himself to make Hayley his top priority and the safety of her and the child. With his brother Niklaus out on another revenge vendetta that would mean a retaliation on their part, even after Elijah had expressed his views that his brother had ignored once again.

Elijah was left alone with Hayley in their current home. After leaving Hayley alone earlier resting in her room. Pouring a glass of ice tea, adding the glass to a tray filled with various fruits and breakfast cereals that Hayley might enjoy.

He gathered the tray up and headed towards her room, knocking and slowly opening the door he peered his head around "Forgive the intrusion but I figured that you may be famished" he attempted a smirk and headed into the room.

Smirking as he placed the food tray on the bed in front of her and perched himself at the end of the bed. Elijah was always curious about the women that had distracted his brother, of course he knew that his brother had an infatuation with a Miss Forbes in Mystic Falls. But he knew that his brother would soon move on from his current distraction to another.

"I am not familiar with your favourite foods so I hope you don't mind the wide selection. It has been a long time since I have prepared a meal for someone that I am a little out of practise" he explained. Unbuttoning his black jacket so that he was more comfortable, "It has been quite sometime since I have had dealings with a woman with child, especially my niece" he smirked.

"Of course" he bowed his head. Hearing her concerns about what had happened earlier that evening, and now with the link broken between Hayley and Sophie everything had changed. "My brother has a few things that requires his attention. I shall not bore you with the details. The less you know the better for your safety and the safety of your child" he explained.

Of course he knew Klaus was now going to have to deal with the witches since he had killed their last remaining elder witch. But he would deal with that tomorrow.

Elijah instantly noticed that she was cold, removing his jacket he draped it over her shoulders. He did not feel the cool, nor the warmth so it meant nothing to him. Elijah gazed upon the woman who was carrying his brother's child, pondering over what drew him to her.

Of course Klaus had told him it was a drunken mistake, but Elijah could see past that. He could see more. "Well technically I did promise that my brother would not kill the witch, but I on the other hand did not make that promise" he grinned.

Right now Elijah would kill anyone who harmed Hayley or her child, no matter the dents in made in his morals. He was more than willing to change them to protect them both.

Elijah was considered a noble man, a man with morals and a heart for forgiveness but where Hayley was concerned all of that went out of the window as they say. "I hope that this does not mar your opinion on me because of my actions, but I believe that this is called for" he ended clearing his throat.

His brother had a reputation which caused fear to those who attempted to seek his approval, but Elijah was seen as the diplomatic member of the family. He did not want that to change, he would not be his brother.

Elijah instantly froze at her contact with his flesh, her warm skin causing conflicting stirs inside of him. Quickly standing to his feet he brushed himself down, he could not get involved romantically with the woman carrying his brother's child.

"You require rest. You had a trying day, I shall be downstairs should you require anything. If you need anything all you have to do is ask Hayley. I cannot have the mother of my niece un-cared for" he smirked.
