Klaus was surprised to learn Elena hadn't mentioned anything to Wynonna, and here Elena is - surprised to learn that he did. Surprised, but... not overly so. And amidst feeling exposed, not unlike a raw nerve, there is some measure of relief.
Secrets can be necessary, and Elena knows this better than most. But it doesn't mean she hates lying any less - keeping things from people who've become important to her. Caring about someone is a form of undressing, in and of itself, and Klaus has left nothing behind.
Wordlessly, Elena motions to the coffee table at the heart of her suite. Wynonna must have questions.
