Nadia was always quick to have her brother¡¯s back even after having been made a passenger inside the body of a vampire who belonged to the Mikaelson bloodlines. It was but one of the many decisions made by the other vampire lords she came to question. Of course, their explanations always came back to feelings her father had for the woman her mother had for the last few decades been a passenger inside of.

At times she thought that part of his past was a far greater threat to her parents¡¯ marriage than lady Teja¡¯ari ever could be. He had the power to resurrect the dead and yet he¡¯d allowed the actions of the Nine to stand with regards to how his wife and eldest daughter were returned to him.?
?
Her eyes widened a bit as a frightening thought occurred to her. ¡®What if Katerina Petrova or as she¡¯d been calling herself back then...Katherine Pierce was regaining control?¡¯ It would certainly explain a few things. It was easier for her mind to latch onto this idea because the thought of her family coming apart at the seams was much too painful after all they¡¯d been through to be reunited.
?
She tried to stay focused on the task at hand but the image of a black rose replayed itself in her mind she could feel ¡®Nadia Petrova¡¯ fighting to get enough of a foothold to regain control. The woman had a child with one of the gypsies who served their family?(or rather that of her uncle whom she¡¯d never met)?and they had seemed quite happy for a time until a need to know her own mother had led her to being turned so that she could find her.
?
As she understood it that loyalty had never shifted, now whether this woman had any ties with her uncle was a bit of a mystery.?
?
Something about that damned black rose had stirred ¡®Nadia Petrova¡¯ and now she was forced to come to a stop as the internal struggle for maintaining control took all her focus. All too often it was much too easy to forget this body wasn¡¯t her own, a thing her brother tended to do as well, but their father always insisted on a Traveler being near her and their mother at all times for this very reason. But since having arrived in London she¡¯d ditched them what with her father being too preoccupied to notice.
?
¡°Mircea?¡± She didn¡¯t feel so well and her voice was strained. It was difficult to say what she¡¯d expected her brother to be able to do about it. Maybe she¡¯d just been frightened at the thought of losing the battle of wills with ¡®Nadia Petrova¡¯ and needed her brother.
