Venice, Italy, 1482

Looking around the crowded room Kol felt a smirk coming onto his pretty lips. So many tasty little bites to be had at a night like this.

The people were dancing, the women's magnificent dresses moving seductively as their owners were swept across the dancefloor by their cavaliers.

Kol had always enjoyed a good party, no matter what century he was in, and he was more than ready to get out there and sweep some girl off her feet when he caught a whiff of something he'd never smelled before. Something that made his mouth water.

It was sweet. Seducing. Addicting.

Looking around the room to see what could emit such an aroma he laid eyes on the most beautiful woman on earth.

She just stood there by the balcony facing the ocean, her dress fluttering gently in the breeze as her gold green eyes watched the waves crash against the shore beneath her.

Turning his charm on Kol walked over to her, deadly silent as he stood behind her, making sure she hadn't seen him.

"Enjoying the scenery?" He whispered close to her ear, hoping for her to jump innocently at the shock and proximity, but was surprised when she simply turned around with a serene look on her beautiful face.

"Very much so." She answered and Kol shivers go down his spine at the sound of her silky smooth voice, so calm and dignified.

"Kol Mikaelson." Kol smiled his most charming smile and bowed slightly as he introduced himself to the young lady who simply smiled at him and nodded her head gracefully in return.

"Dalia." She answered him before turning her complete attention to the ocean once again.

Kol was smitten to say the least by the girl. No woman had ever been able to resist his charm and yet the young woman seemed more fascinated by the waves than of him.

"I'm sorry to say I've never seen you around here before. Are you new in the city?" He asked, trying to get her attention again although all he got in return was a mysterious smile and a glance.

"I guess you could say that."

Being used to getting what he wanted Kol couldn't help but feel a little frustrated at the girl's attitude and so he placed both hands on her arms to turn her around to look into his eyes.

"You want to leave this party with me now." He compelled in a sweet voice. "You will come to my chambers and you will do anything I ask of you, do you understand?"

The girl looked at him for a second before she leaned forward, her pink lips gently touching the shell of his ear as she whispered with a smile. "I don't think so, vampire."

She pulled back.

"It was a really nice try though." She chuckled and was pleased to see the Original's stunned face.

"What are you?" He asked once he found his voice, no vampire had ever been able to resist his compulsion and needless to say no human either for that matter.

She smirked and pressed her lips against his, taking them in a soaring kiss that Kol doubted he'd ever feel again. As quickly as she had initiated the kiss she stopped it, pulling back to look at the vampire with glittering gold eyes. "I'm what humans call a goddess."

Kol's eyes widened.

"You have good taste, Kol." She smirked. "I trust we'll meet again."

And with that she walked away from him, easily getting lost in the colorful crowd of people.

And left behind , standing by the balcony Kol wasn't all too sure if he was dreaming or not.

Hi there people! I don't know about you but I was so heartbroken when "you-know-what" happened to Kol that I needed to take out my frustrations on something.
And so this story came alive. It won't be long, just long enough for me to get my point across ;)

I hope you like it!
