Author Note: Here it is the story of Klaus's daughter and Damon Salvatore's son. The line between love and hate is very thin with them. Excuse my grammar and I tried to keep my characters in character as best as I could. Enjoy and please comment.
I sat in my room surrounded by books and painting's that I've created or bought. One of the nice things about being an Original's daughter is that I've never wanted for anything. I had to attend one of my father's stupid meetings again. I hated going to those things but I didn't have much of a choice. I had to go because it shows my support. Uncle Elijah and Aunt Rebekah would be there which was great. Aunt Rebekah is really cool, she usually takes me shopping and out to do whatever fun things we can think of. Uncle Elijah is very supportive of me always giving me words of wisdom when I come to him with my problems.
I went into my walk in closet and got dressed. I put on my red tank top with the black lace around the collar, and my black ripped jeans. I put on my knee high leather boots then my leather jacket. I went over to my vanity sat down and ran a brush through my straight long dark brown hair that reaches my waist. The ends of my hair curls up. I traced black eyeliner over my eyes and put on grey eye shadow to make my green eyes pop. My lips were full and plump, I put on a light red lip gloss. I didn't put on cover up since my skin has never had so much as a pimple. One of the many perks of being an immortal. I put on my black fedora, and then my black studded belt. It hung loosely from the top of my right hip and to the bottom of my left hip. I looked myself over and noticed how much of me looked like my mother.
My father never talks of my mother much, all I know is that he didn't seem to love her very much. How could he? He never speaks of her. I shook off those negative thoughts and dragged myself down though the manor. Aunt Rebekah was waiting for me and smiled.
"Ready love?"
I sighed, "I guess."
"Cheer up, I hear later tomorrow night my brother is hosting a party." She smirked, "Damien Salvatore will be there."
I stiffed at the name, and shook my head. I swear Aunt Rebekah thinks I have a thing for him. She also thinks he had a thing for me too. Never going to happen, I hated his cocky little attitude, every time he smirks at me I wanted to take a bat to his face. I glared at her, "He doesn't like me and I don't like him, get it straight!"
"Now now, no need to get so defensive."
I walked past her annoyed and went to her red Ferrari. Aunt Rebekah is always flashy. I got into the passenger's side while she got into the driver's side. I looked at her.
"What is this meeting even about this time?" I asked curiously.
"Oh nothing too spectacular, I believe your dad is just going to be giving out day light rings to those who deserve it."
Great this was going to be so boring. "I don't get why I have to go! I'd like to do some normal things for once!"
She looked at me in wonder, "Like what?"
"Well for one I'd like to go to a high school instead of being home schooled."
"Have you talked to my brother about this?"
"Yeah….he doesn't want me to go, actually he's pretty much forbidden me from going." I rested my head against my hand while looking out the window.
"Perhaps if you discuss this with Elijah, he might be able to convince your dad into letting you attend school. What sparked this desire all of a sudden?"
"It's not all of a sudden." I defended, "I've wanted to go for a while now. Especially when I hear girls going on about their dresses for homecoming and prom. Or just seniors in general. If Damien Salvatore can go why can't I?"
She laughed, "I see now, you want to go to school to be with the young Salvatore boy."
I glared at her again, "Aunt Rebekah will you stop with that?! That's not the reason. I'm just saying Damien is allowed to go and he's a vampire. So I should be able to go to!"
"You're not just a vampire Jade, you're the daughter of an Original vampire. Your practically royalty. You're very important, to my brother. You are the one that my brother will die to protect. That's why he has half of is daylight walkers guarding you. To make sure that no one kidnaps you or you get into any trouble."
I shook my head, "My dad doesn't have anyone watching me….wait…what?!"
"C'mon how do you think you got caught so many times trying to sneak out? You really didn't know?"
"Of course not! I can't believe all this time I've been watched. When did this all start?"
"Well let's see….since you were a child and started to get into mischief. He wanted to make sure nothing bad would happen to you."
"I can take care of myself."
"When you were five you couldn't. Countless of people tried to either kill you or take you."
"And now?"
"Now he is still worried that something could happen to you."
I groaned, "Great I'm never going to get to go to school."
"You might if you put on the Mikaelson charm." She smirked and I smirked back at her. That could work. It has in the past, I just explain my case, bat my eyelashes at him and ask him sweetly as possible.
"Maybe." I smiled.
We arrived at the bar and walked in, all of my dad's vampires gave me a nod of recognition and respect. I use to wonder about that but Elijah explained that since I was Klaus daughter it was demanded that I'm to be respected. No matter the circumstance. I sat on top of the bar and crossed my legs and starred at all my dad's followers. Not even half were here. Only the one's that proved their loyalty to him. There were only ten here and we were all waiting for my dad to show up. He could be late but it's another thing if I am. Stupid double standards.
Finally my dad got here with Elijah I kissed both their cheeks and sat by them as they discussed their business. My dad stood up and congratulated all of his men on their faithfulness and presented them their rings. A round of drinks went around the whole bar, I wasn't allowed to have any. I could only have blood or a soda. Oh joy.
I sipped my coke and watched as everyone celebrated. I sighed in boredom. My dad looked over at me.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" He asked.
"Daddy I've been wanting to talk to you…"
"Well go on."
"I know we've discussed this before but please just reconsider. I want to go to school with kids my age. Please! I promise I'll stay out of trouble!" I batted my eyelashes and gave him a sweet smile.
"Angel you know why I can't allow that."
"Look I know about the guards that you have watching me so I should be fine."
He sighed and then started to think, I looked at Elijah and gave him a sweet smile too.
"Come now Niklaus you can't expect her to mature into a young lady if you won't allow her go and experience things for herself."
"Alright I'll give you one chance, if you get into trouble then you're out. Back to home schooling." I smiled excitedly and jumped up and kissed his cheek.
"Thank you thank you! Can I borrow your car to go get school supplies?!"
He laughed, "Now Jade let's not get carried away."
I smiled, "Fine! I'll go ask Aunt Rebekah to take me." He and Elijah smiled.
Later Rebekah and I got my supplies for school and she dropped me back off at home while saying smugly, "Don't forget to say hello to the Salvatore boy for me." She winked then drove away. I scowled at her retreating car and then headed into the house and packed my new backpack. I've never had a backpack before. I picked out of nice light blue summer dress for tomorrow and blue wedges to go with my dress.
As I got dressed for bed and was getting ready to go to sleep, Elijah came into my room. He smiled softly at me.
"You look rather excited for tomorrow."
"I am Uncle. I've wanted this for a while. Thank you for convincing my dad into letting me go." I smiled brightly at him.
"You're very welcome. Your father is just looking out for your best interest."
"I know but he has nothing to worry about…"
His lip curled up slightly, "Jade you know as well as I that is not entirely true. You've gotten yourself into trouble in the past." He stated.
I rolled my eyes, "I know I know, but I'll stay out of trouble this time. I really want this to work. I know I'm not a normal girl but I'd really like to just spend the rest of this year pretending, is that okay?"
"Yes as long as you keep that temper in check, meaning no drinking from your fellow classmates, and no compulsion unless absolutely necessary. Is that understood?"
I nodded, "I guess…"
"Jade."
"Ok, ok! No snacking on the humans and no messing around with their brains. I get it."
He headed to the door, "Oh and one more thing, stay away from the Salvatore boy. He's trouble."
I nodded again, "Good night Uncle."
He left without another word. I don't know why everyone thinks that Damien and I are going to be friends. I hate that cocky little bastard and he hates me. It's been like that since our whole life. Nothing will change that.
