The next chapter will focus on Klaroline but I needed this one to start the drama and destroy Tyler and Caroline's relationship. I'm Klaroline all the way!
I hope you enjoy this chapter and please review :D
After a few minutes she slowly raise herself and replaced the empty bottle of vervain which she ingested that morning with a new one. She could feel the burning sting ass the vervain pumped through her body and she lifted her hand to let her fingertips graze over the unforgettable words, much like the person. 'Thank you for your honesty. Klaus'
He loves you…Niklaus Mikaelson is completely in love with you.
And he tried to compel you to forget to protect you.
So what do I do now…?
Knock Knock!
I groan as the sunlight streams onto my face and I hear the knocking on the door. I slowly blink opening my eyes recalling the memories from yesterday.
I love you Caroline
The words that Klaus had said were engraved into my mind and no matter how hard I tried to ignore his confession, it always caused my heart to clench as I remember the pure honesty in his eyes. I shake the thought out of my mind as I grab my night gown and flash to the door.
"Hey Care." I throw myself in Tyler's arms as he wraps his hands around me.
"Tyler, oh god I missed you so much." He places his lips on mine and I freeze for some reason. Klaus' words echo through my head and I feel my stomach twist as Tyler kisses me. He pulls back and his eyes flash with something that I can't place. His scent is off judging by my vampire senses, he smells of his aftershave and some sickeningly sweet honey smell.
"I've missed you too Care, you have no idea." I pull him into the house when I hear my mom come down the stairs.
"Tyler, Caroline, I'm going to work, there's been an incident so I need to go check it out. I won't be home till late so just order something in. Love you sweetie. Bye" she heads out of the door in her Sheriff's uniform and I focus my attention on Tyler again.
"How have you been, what happened?" He avoids my eyes but composes himself.
"Nothing much, I travelled for a bit, found a pack in Atlanta…and they want me to return to them." I narrow my eyes at him.
"Okkk…" a sickening feeling bubbles up from my stomach as I wait to hear his next words.
"Care…I'm going to go back to them…but only a weekend at a time." I nod slowly as I walk into the kitchen to grab a blood bag.
"You're leaving again?" He nods
"Yeah, but like I said only on the weekends" I let out a puff of air as I tell him to wait and flash upstairs to change and do my hair using vampire speed. I return in front of him.
"Ok, well, I think I can survive a weekend away from you." I let out a small smile as he pulls me close when Klaus' words run through my mind again and I prepare myself to kiss Tyler even though it doesn't feel right when my phone suddenly rings and I see its Stefan. I pull away from Tyler and feel unwanted relief as I answer Stefan.
"Hello"
"Hey Care, you need to get to the boarding house now, something happened to your mom…"
"What?!"
"Get down her now Blondie!" I hear Damon shout over the phone.
"I'll be right there." I hang up the phone and flash out of the house without even glancing at Tyler and into the boarding house to see my friends and the Originals all gathered including Klaus. I ignore everyone and rush to my mother who has a towel pressed to her neck.
"What the hell happened mom?!" I pull away the towel but there is no wound only her dried blood which she used the towel to wipe away.
"That incident I told you about this morning, well it turns out that there have been more 'animal' attacks so I went to check it out. I got to the site and there were 20 to 30 humans all dead lying on the floor. I got closer and something came up from behind me and bit into my neck. I thought it was a vampire and I screamed when Matt entered the clearing." I turn to Matt who is sitting next to Rebekah.
"I heard your mom scream and I rushed to her with Rebekah. There was a girl with brown hair down to her shoulders biting into her neck. But as I got closer she ran away and dropped Liz. I called Rebekah and she gave your mom some blood to heal her."
"Rebekah?" I turn to her and she nods her head slightly and I look between her and Matt. "Thank you." I whisper to her as I hug my mom tight.
"That's not all Blondie, go ahead, tell her Liz." Damon took a sip of his bourbon and slumped down into his chair. I raise my eyebrow at my mom waiting for her to answer.
"The girl, she had a tattoo on the inside of her wrist, it was in the shape of a crescent moon, it wasn't a vampire Care, it was a wolf."
"How do you know this?"
"Only wolves have that kind of marking sweetheart, every pack has a different one, each unique to their lineage." Klaus says as I turn to listen to him. I nod slightly and look away from his eyes because all I see is the honesty again which reminds me of his confession.
"So this girl, we could track her then?"
"Already done, she's from a pack in Atlanta."
"Ok well, how do we ge-" I stop mid-sentence as my eyes look over at Tyler who is looking at me. My eyes widen in realisation and everyone falls silent as I stand frozen on the spot staring at Tyler who looks at me with a guilty expression.
"Atlanta…" I whisper and Tyler's eyes close slowly.
"Care…" Stefan breaks the silence as he slowly takes hold of my arms and steps in front of me whilst I stare at Tyler.
"Who is she?" I whisper
"Care, we don't kno-" Stefan starts to say but I interrupt him.
"Tyler…who is she, who attacked my mom?" He swallows hard as he opens and closes his mouth but no voice comes out.
"Wait, hold up, why would Lockwood know?" Damon asks curiously as he stands from his seat and steps in front of me facing Tyler.
"He was in Atlanta, his pack is in Atlanta, meaning that you know this girl…who is she?"
"Care…" he steps forward slightly.
"Tell me." I demand as I take a few steps forward.
"I can't…you have to understand…I feel loyal to her…she's part of the pack."
"Ok how about this, why did she specifically attack my mother?!"
"I don't know…"
"Oh Tyler, I may be blonde, but I'm not stupid. Why?!"
"She was jealous of you"
"Jealous, she's never met me why would sh-"
"Something happened, didn't it, between you and her." He looks at me and nods slightly. I want to cry, I really want to feel hurt but all I feel is anger and I start laughing unexplainably.
"Caroline…" my mom says slowly confused at my reaction, like the others. I lower my head still giggling slightly when I abruptly stop and slowly raise my head letting my vampire eyes appear and allow the red veins under my eyes to ripple. I flash forward suddenly and crush Tyler's throat pushing him into the wall. I hear some people say my name but I concentrate on Tyler.
"Who is she?!" I loosen my hold on his throat when he tries to speak. "WHO?!"
"Hayley" he gasps as I let him go and throw him to the middle of the room "Hayley Marshall."
"Thank you Tyler…" I whisper when I suddenly rip off the wooden leg of the table at the side and push it into his stomach when he suddenly leans on me. I stare straight ahead into the fire and let him drop making sure that the wood is imbedded into his stomach. I look at the others staring at me when my eyes fill with tears. I turn and begin to walk out of the door.
"I wonder if the wolf will put up a fight before I rip her apart?" I say resolutely as I head out of the door and let a tear slip down my cheek.
