Hello, everyone so I decided to do a little Prologue story for The Alpha's Mate. There will be no Klaroline in this story, since Klaus and Caroline haven't meet yet, this story will only be focusing on Kalijah. I'm not planning for it to be a long story, about 12 or 13 chapters, but still I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for reading!


Chapter One

It was just that he was a complete imbecile.

Katherine Pierce narrowed her chocolate brown eyes at the Alpha of her pack, The Silver Wolf Pack's mate made his way towards the camping ground. She could feel herself getting even more irritated as he approached her. Trevor. Who the hell had made him Alpha? He was as weak as field mouse and mouses were much more terrifying.

Katherine had just turned twenty years old and she was a slim, beautiful young woman with chocolate brown hair that often used her flirtatious skills to earn special favors. She had been born and had grown up around her pack members, but the one person that she could not stand was Trevor.

He was a few years older than Katherine, but because of his skinny figure, Katherine was sure that she could have easily crushed him. Katherine briefly remember the alpha before him, his father. He had been strong and courage's to the very end and had been killed by an enemy wolf pack when Katherine had turned seventeen.

So for the past three years she had been forced to watch Trevor make a complete fool of himself with his lack of leading abilities. The rest of the clan had been patient with him, but Katherine had never really been a patient kind of gal before.

She had often told her elderly mother, Katherine's only relative that if only Trevor would die so that they could get a real alpha. Of course Katherine's mother often scolded her for thinking in that cold manner as well.

They needed a better Alpha. She would be a better Alpha. Katherine had never understood why they couldn't disturb this perfect "all man" hierarchy. It was pathetic. The knife was hidden in her coat as she saw Trevor go towards the woods. Perfect.

Trevor had always been a bit spacey, not to mention that the death wouldn't be at all unusual. There were hunters in these woods all the time. Besides Trevor was clueless and most people would agree that Trevor had probably been out in the woods by himself when he had been stabbed in the neck. Katherine followed him in her dainty, white wolf form as he made his way to the woods. He stopped by one of the trees to take a nap.

Like taking candy from a baby. Katherine waited for a few minutes for him to fall asleep before she lunged towards him, waiting to stab him across the neck, but Katherine froze when she felt someone grabbing her and pinning her down, stabbing the knife in her wrist. Katherine let out a yelp as Trevor held her down. "Katherine Pierce, why am I not surprise?"


Katherine's wrist was still hurting as she listened to her sentence an hour later. All of the members of the pack were there including Trevor. Her mother was besides her sobbing as she tried to clean up Katherine's wounds while at the same time scolding her for the stupidity that she had done. Katherine in all honesty just wanted to wipe that holier than thou look off Trevor's stupid face. "Pack, we are gathered here today to sentence Katherine Alexandria Pierce for the crime of trying to kill one's alpha. How do your plea?"

"You already know the answer," Katherine said flatly.

He ignore her answer. "Katherine is guilty of committing the crime of trying to kill the alpha of the pack. The punishment is either execution or exile forever."

Katherine's mother became so hysterical, it was embarrassing. "Please, Trevor. Please, forgive her. Oh, she has always been a stubborn girl, but she doesn't have a malicious bone in her body. Please don't hurt her, please- "

Trevor interrupted. "Katherine, in respect towards your poor mother, you will not be executed, but you will be exiled from the pack forever. You will not be allowed to visit your mother and your mother will not be allowed to visit you." Katherine's throat felt tight. She probably hadn't thought this through. Her poor Mama.

Exile might be worse than death, where was she supposed to go? Was she to live among the humans. How disgusting!

"Lucky for you, you will be sent to another wolf pack. There isn't as much females apparently." Trevor continued. "The Alpha of the pack, Klaus Mikaelson is looking for a mate for his older brother Elijah. I was going to send my friend Rose, since she's around Elijah's age. But you, you're a little young and older men like younger woman. Besides Elijah is a man of honor. I'm sure that he can smooth the rough edges."

"So am I to leave, to get married." Katherine blurted out. "That is my punishment?" Katherine had never thought about getting married or bearing children and now everything had been decided for her.

"Would you prefer death?" she didn't answer. "That's what I thought. You will leave for the North Atlantic Pack tonight. I suggest you pack your things and say your goodbyes."


Katherine had thirty minutes until she was kicked to the curb, with the little money that Mrs. Pierce had saved up for her daughter. Mrs. Pierce had paid for Katherine's plane ticket and a little spending money. She was heading towards Mystic Falls where her new husband lived.

"Oh, Mama, please stop crying," Katherine said. "Don't listen to that asshole, I will find a way to come visit you."

Mrs. Petrova shook her head. "Oh, please no Kathy, don't make things worse than they already are. You made a mistake and now you have to pay for it. At least you're going to be alive and safe. You are much too headstrong, Katherine. Maybe babies and being married will settle you down."

"I doubt it." Kat grumbled.

Mrs. Pierce kissed each of her cheeks. "Be good, Kathy, please. I love you."

Katherine bit her lip. "I love you too, Mama."


Klaus smiled as he read the letter he received from Trevor, even with all this modern technology the alphas of the packs still communicated formally by letter. Trevor told him that he would be sending a bride for his moody, older brother Elijah. A white wolf by the name of Katherine Pierce.

She was a little younger than Klaus had wanted, fifteen years too young. But his brother was almost turning 35 years old. He needed a family and someone to fuck and he was way too uptight for any of the girls here. Perhaps a younger girl would be easy to handle, even if Trevor had warned him that Katherine was hard to handle.

Elijah was going to be pissed, but Klaus didn't care. He was going to thank him in the long run.
