Katherine POV

She ran away from him before he could see her. This encounter was not what she expected when she came to London. Of course she knew who and what he was, but she was not ready to let him know who she was yet. Her perfectly curled hair fluttered in the wind she was dressed in black leather and wore black stilettos as it was her style. Katherine Pierce was not a woman you mess up with, on the contrary her goal in life was to mess up with people, get what she wanted and leave to get another favor in a new city. Every one of her actions went unnoticed until he bumped into her that night. He was tall, his green eyes glimmering with the lights on the street, black-haired he carried that lightning bolt scar as a reminder of his former life. She knew he was working for the Ministry and that he would cause her trouble but she did not care, after all she knew how to handle men in every possible way. But she had to be fair and admit that he would be a great problem if he found out she was in the city.

She run down the street until she was able to get a cab and gave the driver a fake address near her real apartment. You are never cautious enough when it comes to safety. That was her mantra; when you spend your life escaping you know nothing else. She was thinking about all this when the taxi stopped, the driver turned around to get his money but what he got was not even a bit near what he expected. Her face became cruel, the face of a monster 'Please, don't scream' she said politely looking right into the driver's eyes. Then she bit him and drank his warm blood, minutes passed while she fed on the man. Once she was done, she wiped the blood from her face with the driver's jacket 'Now go home, remember nothing' and so he did while she walked towards her apartment.

She took the lift to the 12th floor and opened her apartment's door without making any noise. The dim light of the living room made her feel a stranger in her own house. She headed to her room and took off her clothes, opening a drawer she took her sexy black nightgown and went to have a relaxing bath. She always hated what came after traveling, jet lag and the feeling of weariness.

She opened the tap and let the hot water run until the bathtub was full. Then she entered and let her body relax in the welcoming warmth of the water. Then she allowed herself to think about Lizza and how she had died in her arms and once again with tears in her eyes she promised herself that Klaus would pay for his crimes. He was the reason she abandoned everything she knew back in Illinois and returned to London looking for peace. But she already knew that with Klaus still alive and lurking around looking for her, she would never have peace. Back to the day when they first met, he looked like an intelligent and cultivated man; now he was just a monster looking for power.

Dreams POV

He looked at her and she looked back at him as if it was the first time. He lowered his head to kiss her on the cheek, surprisingly she found herself wanting more than what he offered her. She got up on her tip toes and slowly approximated her lips to his. And for the first time in her whole life he rejected her, turning his face away. She smiled as if accepting the challenge; she loved to play.

Katherine POV

She woke up in the middle of the confusion; soon she realized she had fallen asleep in the bathtub. She had had one of those pleasurable dreams in which you wake up not knowing what you dreamt about but yet you know it was something good. She got out of the water and wrapped herself with the towel. Then she took the hair dryer and dried the dampness of her hair before going to bed. She dressed in the nightgown and went to sleep. She had something very important to do the next morning and she needed to rest properly.
