Lie To Me

Chapter 1
No Place Like Home
Whether it's rain or shine, New York was always bustling. Even as Evelyn Brighton's rain boots sloshed away in the dirty street puddles. No, she was determined to get to her destination, The Sanctuary. Never paying mind to the honking of taxi cabs making their way down the busy street nor the old ladies howling away from their windows to the ungrateful kids lounging on their door steps. No, she had her mind dead set on the industrial complex ahead.
Once inside she took great pride dragging herself up the spiral staircase till she reached the top floor, with key in hand she unlocked Door 7, and once she was inside with her back pressed against the dark mahogany door and sighed. "Thank God, I'm home"
Not only had her day been nothing but gloom, but her new client Mr. and Mrs. Paterson were the most difficult clients she had ever met. Rising off the door she tugged off her rain boots and sat them next to the entryway end table and dropped her keys in the basket. As she made her way into the kitchen she ignored the red flashing light on her answering machine, I'll listen to it tomorrow and spotted a giant black mass lounging on her living room couch. "I'm home Airon." She said as she moved past said giant beast into the bedroom. Really could've used a vacation she thought as she pulled off her red pea coat and tossed into the chair completely ignoring the white fluff the decide to take a cat nap on said chair. The white fluff hissed at the sudden attack and shifted vigorously to get from under the heavy material. Evelyn seeing the frantic movement made her way over to the discarded object and plucked it off the chair only to meet the disgruntled stare of her odd eye cat. "Sorry Eudora I didn't see you there, mommy's had a rough day and just wants to change and go to bed." She said as she stroked Eudora white coat.
Eudora just nudged her hand away before curling back up into a ball and drifting off again. "I guess you were thinking the same thing then." Evelyn muttered as she traded her blouse for a tank and her business pants for a pair of PINK pajama bottoms. Climbing into bed she was about to doze off into a well needed sleep when she heard a whine. Popping her head up from her plush pillow she spotted Airon perched at her door way giving her those giant puppy dog eyes. "You know your daddy doesn't like you sleep in the bed." She said as she watched his ears drop and lower his head in disappointment. For a dog Airon sure knew how to pull her heart strings that's why his daddy said she gives in to easily. "Fine, but this is the last time you sleep in this bed. You sleep here more than he does anyway." Evelyn mumbled as she watched the beast head perk up and ears straighten. For moment she could see the glistening delight behind his dark hues before he trotted his way over and climbed in right beside her. Shaking her head she rested her head back against her plush pillow and was out like a light.
As she dreamed Evelyn came home to utter silence no pitter patter of feet against the hard wood floors. Just… Silence. "Airon, Eudora I'm home have you both behaved for mommy." Evelyn said she set her keys on the entry table and moved her way into the kitchen hitting the answering machine button "You have 1 new message, Sunday, September 17 5:11 am,*static*". Resting her bag on the counter she opened the fridge and pulled out a water bottle she paused as she heard the endless scratchy noise which soon followed up the phone hanging up. Frowning at the impracticable voice mail she took a swing of the bottle sighing as she felt completely refreshed. She continued to navigate her way into her office she skimming over her messy desk for one of her folders. "Seriously I thought I had it right here," She mumbled as she patted the top of the printer. "It probably in the bedroom or Airon has it. Speaking of Airon I wonder where is he?"
"Airon where are you, are you lying in my bed again you know your daddy doesn't like it when you lay in the bed." Evelyn said as she made her way out of the office and into the living room. There was no sign of the overly sized beast. That was weird the dog was huge and the loft wasn't any bigger than most of the newly renovated New York apartments in fact her boyfriend's townhouse was secretly known to be bigger than the late Huguette Clark's own apartment. "I swear Eudora is one thing but Airon, what the hell is going on." Evelyn said as she made her way to the bedroom, opening the door she stepped inside switching on the nearby light switch. As the bright light illuminated the room she felt a knot in her throat at what she saw lying on her bed. At the moment she'd give up her never ending urge for Krispy Cream Donut's over the massive beast lying on her bed because this huge ball of fur staring at her with golden hues was not her dog. In fact this creature was far from it as she gulped clenching her water bottle in hand hear has it contracted under pressure as her eyes danced over the black and silver fur, long pointy snout and sharp claws.
It was like some western showdown Evelyn had no idea who was going to move. The wolf lying on top her bed staring straight had her hadn't moved an inch since she stepped into the room. "L….listen hear you, I don't know who you are or what you did to my dog, so I'm going to go out into the kitchen call animal control to come get you ok." Evelyn stammered as she started to back her way to the door. She watched has the wolf's eyes narrow and growl causing her to freeze once she rested her hand on the cool metal of the door knob. Feeling the knot in her throat tighten she figured she was as good as dead if she didn't get out of that room.
So she pitched her water bottle at the beast and quickly bolted behind the door slamming it shut behind her, she never bother to see if the bottle made contact she ran out of there like a bat out of hell. Quickly backing away from the door she was about to bolt out of the apartment and head to her neighbor's to call for somebody who could handle this situation when her world suddenly stopped. Perched on all four's was the same damn wolf right in front of her. "How did you..?" she looked behind her and at then to the wolf in front of her. There was no way in hell that there were two of them, no God could be that cruel. "Ok, tough guy you wanna play, then let's play I'll crush you before you can even touch me." Evelyn hissed as she raised her hand. Narrowing her eye's she called forth her power but her eyes widened when she felt nothing. Ok god was officially cruel her in book, redemption her ass if he was leaving her stranded. The wolf seemed to be finding the amusing as well as she could have sworn she saw a twinkle of mirth shift past his eyes. Crouched down on all fours the wolf sprang knocking the wind right out of her as he sent her on her sprawling backward onto the floor. Pinned down by such a heavy body Evelyn closed her eye tightly as she felt the beast heavy breath caress her face. This was it goodbye cruel world, thanks for all those crappy client's, the awesome donuts, Krispy Cream you were my best friend.
Lick!
Once again the world seemed to stop. Did this wolf just like her? Lick! There it was again as she felt lick after lick move all over her face. "What the hell, stop it get off!" Evelyn tried to budge to no avail. Jerking her head back and forth she could not avoid the wolf's kisses. Then all of the sudden the lick's seized and were replaced by feather light kisses of warm parted lips against her neck. Soft and ghost like they travel up and down from her neck to her jaw. "What the hell?" Evelyn said as she opened one eye to see who dared to ravage her. Wicked blue hues stared down into her light brown and gold specks with mirth and if that didn't tell her that this was nothing but a game, than the cheeky smirk of her lover's grin did nothing to prove that this was only another one of his ploys. "I've never known you to give in so easily Evie," His cheeky English accent only caused her to narrow her eyes before she wrapped her legs around him and flipped them over. With both palm encaging his pert face, she leaning down to the point where their noses were almost touching. "And since when is easy in your vocabulary Niklaus." Evelyn said as he watched her own eyes sparkle with mirth. "Never" He said as he raised his hand up and caressed her face. Evelyn's smile widened "That's never been in your vocabulary either." Evelyn said as ghosted her lips over his, as closed his eyes and puckered slightly with anticipation waiting to dissolve into what he'd so long waited for. Alas he only winced slightly at the sudden nip on the tip of his nose and the light weight vanished. Opening his eyes he raised his head off the carpeted floor and stared at the mischievous expression on his lover's face as she leaned against brick archway. "What no well come back kiss for long awaited lover?" He asked raising that defiant brow of his. "Why kiss you in this dream stage, when reality is so much more interesting." Evelyn chided as she cocked her head to the side. Klaus chuckled at her innocent answer before replying. "Well then I'll see on the other side then." He said s he snapped his fingers and like that with in an instant Evelyn's surrounding disappeared into nothingness only to be lifted by the light of reality.
As her eyes fluttered open and adjusted to the darkness of the room Evelyn instantly felt the shifting of her lover's arms around her waist as they pulled her in closer to his broad chest. Smirking she waved her fingers as the light flooded the room. Shifting around she felt her lover's arm's slack to allow her to move. Oh, when she turned around to see those twinkling blue of mischief she couldn't help but smile as raised her hand to caress his smirking face before pulling him into a mind blowing kiss. As lips meshed and tingled while their tongues danced coyly with each other. It felt like they were sharing their first encounter all over again and as Evelyn pulled away from her lover's pinkish lips she giggled as they tried to follow her parting lips. "Welcome back Klaus." She said
"And it feels good to be back." He said as he trailed scorching kisses down the nape of her neck to the valley of her breast. Evelyn groaned as she felt every kiss and flutter of his fingers as the slipped under her top to caress her breast scorching trail of heat along her skin. No words were said they knew what they desired; when apart their affection for one another was downright carnal. As they stripped each naked they embraced each other intensely feeling every crevice and indent of firm muscle and soft supple flesh. They indulged, encouraged more and more by each other groan's and each other's whimpers of pure ecstasy. Evelyn was surrounded by intense warmth as Klaus entered her, stretching her to point of no return, and with every thrust her cries grew louder as she dug her finger nails into his shoulder only to drag them along his back. She watched as how his back arched in delight at the gesture and saw as how the red welts that appeared fade into nothingness. At one time she would have called him a sadist taking immense pleasure at the sight of someone in pain but he always had a motive, he told her once that he didn't care who he killed to get what he wanted, the pleasure he felt when he first became a vampire faded millenniums ago. However every once in a blue moon Evelyn swore she saw the boy she heard so much about right in the throes of their love making in between the sheet.
Klaus sighed and groaned as her walls tighten around him, he was not inexperienced when it came to the bedroom by far. Before he always let the women he seduced into his chamber's do as the please only to leave lifeless by the end of the night. Yet hadn't he wandered into that night club three years back he would have never known a feeling like the one he shared with this delectable nymph. She out maneuvered him time and time again making him revaluate himself almost as much as his kill's. He felt everything with her and no compulsion or switch he could flip worked when he was with her. He was the most hypocritical person he'd ever met. Condemning his brother if he were to fall, when he himself could not fathom the idea of being ignorant of such a creature's existence. He felt every sin when he was with and away from her presence. He swore to shelter her from every threat and even if she ran he'd find her and ensnare her again and again. And as she cried out to her highest octave upon her climax he no sooner followed suit into a land of bliss.
THE SOUND OF TAXI CAB'S HONKING and that old hag from down the street yelling at youth could be heard as well as the rest hustle and bustle of the NYC. Grunting at the vexing noise Klaus reached for the nearest pillow and pulled it over his head as he tried to disregard the early vivacious New York streets. Reaching out again his hand patted the vacant cool side of the queen sized bed and instead of feeling the warm body of his lover, instead felt a relentless swiping paw. Using his other hand Klaus relentlessly pulled the pillow that was meant to incase him in solitude away from his face as he meet the equally disgruntled look of Eudora mismatched eye's. "Well well, did you miss me too Eudora?" he chided his lovers cat. Eudora gave and irritated meow before turning away whipping her tail in Klaus face just before scampering right out of the room. "I guess I'll take that as no then." He grumbled as he sat up. Raising his arms he stretched his joints groaning as they popped from their stiff position. Rising up from the bed he lazily moved his nude form from around the bed to the bathroom for some freshening up. And after a nice hot shower and towel wrapped around his waist Klaus made his way into Evelyn's room, spotting Airon perched on top of the disarray bed. "I don't know when you got this sick habit of yours but it ends here, off." Klaus commanded watching as the Great Dane gruff at him before hoping off the bed and park right at the foot of it. Turning his attention back to his task Klaus opened one of Evelyn's drawers and pulled out a pair of jeans and button down shirt.
Once dressed, Klaus moved past Airon giving him a pat on the head for him to follow as he left the room. He had a lot to do today; he'd lost two of his best witches after achieving the completion of his transformation. Though he had the doppelgangers lover at his disposal and Elijah was out of the way, Katarina still managed to slip away from him. That harlot was always evading him and his vendetta only grew more and more with every slip. Last he checked her favorite getaway was always New York, the city had enough resources for her to avoid him for as long she was able to manipulate her next victim to act as her shield, it was too bad for her that he'd been living there for the past couple years.
Yet he was eager to return back home where Evelyn resided, his separation from her had taken an unforeseen toll on his person causing him to misjudge his situation while in Mystic Falls. Yet as he watched from the doorway her lean figure perched at her desk, wrinkled brow and all she scoot around her desk chair and shuffled through all the clutter that somehow managed to hold her desk hostage as she clenched her phone between her ear and shoulder blade. This was just the icing on the cake.
"With all due respect Mr. Patterson, You are my client and a married man and I do not have any interest to pursue anything further with you unless it is to decorate you guest room, now if you have anything else regarding the theme or direction on which your wife and I have chosen feel free to call my assistant Nathan. So in the mean time I suggest that you refrain from trying to act on anything else in regards to me, and have a pleasant morning Mr. Patterson." Evelyn said as she hung up the phone disregarding any protest that followed once the phone was settled back on the cradle upon her desk and resumed to shuffle through her pile of clutter. "Men these days can't take a hint." She mumbled as she shifted through stacks of swatches and portfolio's from one side of the desk to the other. She never knew that he was there watching her intently. Her job was always his biggest competitor; she never lightened up on any project always jumping from one thing to the other. It was a miracle to him how she always managed to make a successful living off of it, yet she'd be hard at work full of drive bustling away at her sketches.
Evelyn would even call to tell him that she'd have to jet off to some exotic location to decorate every once in a blue moon. Meaning he'd have to pet sit Airon and Eudora while she was away, that always got awkward for him every time his follower's saw him trying to make nice with his lovers cat who would just snuff at him and saunter off to some part of the house. Airon was much easier to deal with regardless of his gigantic stature he'd just plop down in front of the fire place in his bedroom and doze off. Yet he'd always wondered what type of clientele his lover had, and it seemed she had a knack for attracting the ones who wanted more than just a home makeover. "I see you've attracted some unwanted attention again Evie." Klaus watched as her shoulders stiffen at the cold crisp tone that passed his lips.
"Unfortunately but that is nothing for you to worry about. It's not like I have a thing for men over 50." Evelyn giggled as she watched as Klaus raised a suggestive brow. "So you're telling me you only fell for my good looks, how utterly naive of you Evie." Klaus playfully scolded. Slowly rising from the chair Evelyn sauntered over to her elderly lover. Wrapping her arms around his neck she leaned up on her tip toes so that their noses were touching as she gazed affectionately into his eye. "Naïve am I, well then maybe we should go on a trip to find you some women your own age, oh that's right they're all dead, guess you're stuck with me what a pity and speaking of trip how was yours?"
Klaus was about retort when a desperate whine was heard grabbing both owners' attention as they glanced to see Airon at the door. "Well then daddy dearest it seems our baby needs to use the john, shall we." Evelyn said as she reached into the nearby basket and placed the dog leash in his hands. "You have got to be kidding, what happened to the pee pad we got him." Klaus grumbled as moved over to hook the leash to Airon's collar. "Klaus he's an over sized dog, and he's no longer a puppy you can't expect him to use the pee pad forever." Evelyn said as she came back out of the room with purse in hand along with both Klaus and her coat.
Airon waited patiently his tail wagging vigorously back and forth at the thought of fresh air. He waited for his master to open the door as he skipped down the hall way to the stairs. "You had to choose the place that doesn't have any elevator's seriously Evie." He complained while keeping a firm grip on the leash as he they descended the stairs. "If this is mean you still want me to give up on this place and move in with you, you might want stop now." Evelyn rebutted as they left the complex and headed to up north to one of the local parks. "Well it doesn't hurt to try, but come on it's been three years already Evie you can't expect me to feel comfortable with you living there." He mention as he took her hand and laced their fingers together. Today was much better then yesterday, still slightly cloudy but not as dreary. "Yeah and if I recall I meet you just four months upon my big move to the big apple. How am I suppose to establish any independence if I just suddenly up and move in with my boyfriend who dot's on my relentlessly" As they walked down the parks paved path passing morning joggers, dog walkers, and nannies as they bushed their baby strollers. "Hint it already being three years and you still haven't caved, I just don't understand why you don't just move in," Klaus stopped at one of the bush areas giving Airon the chance to relieve his bladder as he passed the leash over to her. "In fact it's not like you dislike the place after all I did hire you to decorate it."
Evelyn just sighed accepting the leash as she watched her boyfriend leave her side for one of the runners who stopped mid jog to tie her unraveled shoe lace. This was always the part that made her feel uncomfortable around Klaus, as she turned away from her boyfriend and unwillingly watched as Airon's hind leg raised over a bush. She used her powers to block the muffled scream of the jogger's. It wasn't like she could store bags of blood in her fridge without the constant company that seemed to stop by find it. So whenever they were together on a morning walk with Airon to the park Klaus would slip away and partake in breakfast with one of the nearby joggers or nannies. Leaving her to watch out for intruders or babysit infants that people would often mistake for hers. He held back on the killings when he was with her knowing it got to her conscience when she saw him kill one of his victims for the first time. As Airon returned to her side she heard the patter of feet of the jogger continuing her workout and felt the return of Klaus cool fingers entwine with her own as he took the leash back with his other. "So why don't you give it some thought before you come to a decision?" He suggested as they continued their stroll through the park. "There's no need for me to come to a decision my mind is made and I'm staying at my place."
Glancing down at her watch she saw that it was already a quarter to 10. "Let's head to the coffee shop, so I can have breakfast since you already had some without me. I have to meet with Quinn for training in the next half hour." Dropping the move in subject Klaus just nodded as they exited the park and head to one of the local coffee shops on the corner near the park. "You know it would be easier to just change you, that way you wouldn't be left out. I could even have one of my witches create a ring for you to move around during the day time, and I could over see your training, that way I wouldn't have to be worried about any harm coming to you." Klaus suggested gripping her hand in reassurance which she greatly returned. "Klaus, I'm maybe human but not fully since discovering this power I learned that I'll be around for a long time so there's no need for me to turn and besides I'm not giving up Krispy Cream just yet."
Klaus brows knotted in frustration at her lack of interest on the idea of becoming like him. They'd been through a lot already and he'd be much happier to know that she'd be by his side fully forever. She's the only person he wanted to be with him in all aspects willingly and that always frustrated him. He never cared about the willingness of others, hell he still didn't and even as she walked with him hand clasped firmly with his own he glanced over. From her short ebony locks to her smooth lightly caramel skin, he'd do anything the make sure those dark brown hues with sprinkles of honey toned irises always looked at him lovingly. No one he dared would ever see this side of him, not even as he sat down at one of the outdoor sitting tables of the corner coffee shop with Airon parked at his side would know that this woman's who order animatedly from the kiosk windows existence meant everything to him.
"Wow, I never saw you have such hard thinking expression since we picked out curtains for your den." Evelyn gentile voice accosted him from his pondering. "Yet you've never heard me complain about them since Evie." He countered stealing a bite of her apple Danish. "Hey no fair you already ate" Evelyn looked at the giant gap that once was a whole Danish now reduced to a mere quarter. "Speaking of fair, I thought we discussed Airon not sleeping on my side of the bed before I left." Hearing his name Airon's ears perked up from his seated position ears twitching in all sorts of directions to over hear his master conversation. "Oh for God Sake Klaus, there's no harm in him lying there. After all he keeps me company while you're away." Evelyn replied finishing the last bits of her apple Danish and drowning it down with her nice tall cup of Chai. "Indeed love, it may not be any harm to you but you're not sleeping on the side that has a nice dog indent in your mattress are you?"
"Well then I can just buy another mattress." Evelyn said glancing down at her watch, she wanted to make her training appointment on time for once or Quinn was going to roaster her ass. "You won't have to buy a new mattress if you didn't let Airon sleep on the bed." He scolded, Airon whimpered at this causing his ears to drop. "It's ok Airon daddy's just got his panties in a bunch." Evelyn patted the gigantic beast affectionately with reassurance giggling as his tail thumped frantically. "Evie I swear, I got Airon for you as a guard dog and you turn him into a lazy puppy."
"He's not lazy aren't boy, I think daddy's just jealous because he has to share mommy with you." Evie cooed she glanced over to see Klaus give her a disapproving look before sighing. "Okay, okay… I see your point he won't sleep in the bed anymore. I swear you get your way too much." Klaus just grinned cheekily as he reached over the table and cradled Evelyn's hand in his own stroking lazily at her skin with his thumb. His grin widened at the shutter that seemed to ripple through her upon his bold action. "As I seem to recall you didn't have any qualm about me having my way with you last night." At that he chuckled at the flushed expression that mar his lovers face as he watched as her eyes glaze over lustfully as they recalled every position, caress, and moan he enacted from her. He gracefully raised her hand to meet the scorching touch of his lips upon her flesh. "You did that on purpose." Her raspy voice heaved as she snatched her hand from his to take a swing of her latte to quench her suddenly dry throat. "I aim to please."
Giving her lover a huff she leaned down to pet her baby one last time before rising from her seat. "Well since you aim to please, you can take care of Airon and Eudora while I run my errands love" she mimicked his pet name he had for her as she grabbed her bag. "You can't expect me to watch him all day, I have things I need to do too." Klaus sputtered as he watched her gather her belongs and trash. "I thought you aimed to please?" She innocently questioned his earlier statement watching as he tried to maneuver himself out this conundrum. Giggling at the way his mouth imitated that of a flapping fish she leaned down to silence him from his stupor, pressing against those scorching lips with her own with all her passion she let her tongue slip from her mouth and innocently cradle his own which he too entwined with hers. Pulling away from him slowly feeling each other husky breaths mingle with one another as they were nose to nose. Evelyn stared into Klaus's glazed over blue pools before giving him a smirk. "I guess I'm not the only one who gets hot and bothered in this relationship."
"If we were back at your place I would have had you back in bed you realize that love." His husky voice replied causing her to shiver at the thought of all the sinful things he could do to her body. "Just take care of the kids and I'll stay at your place tonight, deal?" she asked cupping his cheek with her palm trailing her thumb back and forth sensually along his chiseled features. As he eyes drifted half mast at the sensation she was giving him, he could never get enough of this. "Seal it with a kiss." He declared smugly as his lazy smirk managed to take form upon his drowsy love induced state. Evelyn pressed her lips to his once again but not as long before giving him slight peck's and with each one declaring her love and meet till the night. Pulling away Evelyn walked away tossing her garbage in the trash as she headed off Quinn's.
Klaus watched from head to toe as his girlfriend doted off in the opposite direction. Watching as her white peep coat ruffled with every movement she made to the way those dark denim jeans hugged her thighs. Yeah he couldn't wait till she got home.
Feeling the his cell phone vibrate he pulled the device out of his pocket never tearing his eye's away for Evelyn's retreating form he hit the talk but. "Your needed back at the apartment, it seems your vampire is misbehaving." The recipient replied; watching as his love disappear around the corner he turned his attention back to the call. "I'll be there shortly have someone keep our guest busy till I arrive. I need you to do me a favor." Klaus looked down at the curious beast nudging his hand with his snout for some attention trashing his tail frenetically to the point he nearly tripped on of the pedestrians walking by.
"I'll need you to stop at the pet store and pick up a few things for me, it seems like I'll have some company when I arrive." He said as he patted the gigantic beast.
A/N: Hello Reader's I'm excited to start writing again and I've become like most fanfic authors and leave a story in TBC mode forever. I don't know how this will turn out but I've approached this story with new tactics to make it motivating for myself. I hope you like chapter one because chapter 2 will be up and running real soon.
P.S. When I read fic's on the website I alway get turned off buy the length that is was written in, I don't know why but for those you out there who are just like me I don't know what the length this will appear on the website but this took my 8 freak'n pages to brainstorm with. Were as other's I've managed to bull shit 14 on my microsft word. So tell me what you think by the next chapter if its to short or just right because I sure as hell know it's not to long.
