So this One-shot was inspired by Joey Gold's song Devil in My Heart I hope you guys enjoy it. -JasZ
Niklaus Mikaelson is known for many things. Mostly for causing: mayhem where ever he goes, seducing the 'innocent' and bringing death to everyone's door step. He never pictured himself being a father much less one that would go to the ends of the world to protect what is his.
He tends to push and pull those around him. Push enemies to the brink as well has his siblings. But he pulls them back by the collar of their shirts in fear that they will forget about him. He much rather hurt then be hurt. That is why he does what he does.
That is one of the main reasons he refused to allow Hayley into his little family. He has enough to deal with. Her little hoax of carrying his child gave him hope that he will have someone who will love him after all. With time he sees a change within himself. No it's not because of the little wolf. But the child that she carries.
The desire and need to be there overwhelms him. The drive to protect both mother and child engraves itself in his bones. With that enemies knock at their doorstep every single day at any given hour. Like the animal that he is, he tears them all down. Without second thoughts or glance; he'll do what it takes to protect what is his.
He's no angel… The child has a power that he had passed down to her. She will give him an army… An army he will use to protect her with until she's old enough to take over. Of course he will be the whisper on her left side. Pulling and tugging at her judgment like any good father would.
True, he may not be doing it for just himself. He's doing to gain control of all those who oppose him. Hayley has questioned his motives over time, concerned for her daughter's being. Seeing that her father isn't stable…
"Why don't you take the time to get to know your daughter? Instead of using her like some pawn in your twisted little game!" Hayley yells at Klaus.
"There's so much to do then to idly go along with such theses. I have to make this land a better place for my child."
"She's safe! The wars have ended and you just want to start another one!"
"I know what I must do! If you don't see it that way then there's the door, take you mutt of a mate with you." He waves at the door as he looks over at his sleeping three year old.
"If I go-"
"You go with your mate. My daughter will remain here with family."
"You bastard!"
"That insult doesn't really do much, love. Now go."
"I thought you changed!"
"You thought wrong." He mumbles as he strolls out of the room.
"Do you even have a heart?" She cries after him.
"Yes, but the Devil in My Heart will not allow me to enjoy simple moments with my child." He remarks as he fights with himself. He tried to change. Tried to be the good father his wasn't. As hard as he tried it never changed the fact that the Devil lived in his heart.
I kinda wanted Klaus to say those things to Hayley... I'm still annoyed with her...Let me know what you think!-Jasz
