Klaus Mikaelson Point of View
I am Nicklaus Mikaelson but I preferred KLAUS. I have been roaming on earth for a thousand years now. I am a hybrid which means I am half vampire and half werewolf thanks to my mother's indiscretion.
I have the appearance of a 26 years old young man, for the rest of the world I am a billionaire who is at the top of the biggest empire these world had ever seen. Saying that I control the world will be an understatement. I literally control the world. This quite funny thinking that: 'my global domination had started 900 years ago out of boredom.'
My brother, Elijah, and I decide to rule the world so we start by influencing the greatest leader of each generation with our mind compulsion abilities.
Because of the rapid change in civilization we decide to use money to control people and that's how today my fortune can't be estimate. We created so many companies link together that we own each and every bank of the entire world as well as actions in all the biggest companies of the world.
To preserve our secret we never take pictures of us, go public or draw too much attention on us.
We manage our businesses from New Orleans where we control the largest supernatural community of the world.
Vampire, witches and all other creatures bow down before us because we are some kind of royalty per say.
In fact, my family and I are the originals vampire. Meaning we are the first vampire of history.
A thousand years ago my mother had 7 children: FREYA, FINN, ELIJAH, MYSELF, KOL, REBEKAH and HENRICK.
My mother Esther was a powerful witch; she was married with Mikael the chief of the Viking tribes who later became the first Viking to reach the shore of America.
My mother lost our sister Freya from the plague when she was 5 years.
That is what she told us without saying in fact that she had sold her to her sister Dahlia as a bargain she made to have children.
My mother was surely a woman with lots of secret.
Her greatest shame has been discovered after our younger brother Henrick was killed by our village greatest treats, men, who could transform themselves into wolves during full moon. I was always fascinated by that and one night my brother Henrick and I sneaked out to see the wolves and that is how he ended up dead.
My mother was over the edge by this death and my father Mikael forced our mother to cast a spell to protect us from the wolves. She used black magic and it cursed us all. Instead of just to protect us, the spell cursed us into an eternity of bloodlust and made us immortals.
Our senses were heightened; we were ten thousand stronger and faster than average humans. With that strength, that speed and immortality the price were an unbearable bloodlust. And from prey we become predator. The day I kill for the first time, I triggered my werewolf's gene and that's how we found out that my mother had been unfaithful and that my conception was the result of an affair she had have with the alpha of the clan who murdered our little brother.
My mother casted a spell to suppress my werewolf's side and I became my father's greatest shame. In his rage, my father killed my mother and He sworn to kill me. I run away from him for 500 years until I finally find a way to kill him. My siblings and I discovered that the tree our mother used to make us vampire was the ultimate weapon to kill an originals and the flowers who flourished at the feet of this tree called Vervain could make us weak. After the death of my parents and in my thirst of power I needed to reconnect myself with my dormant werewolf's side to truly become the hybrid. It took me a thousand years but I finally broke the cursed.
A month later my brother Elijah and my sister Rebekah decided to celebrate that. We decide to party in each big cities of the world for a year and the last stop where Los Angeles. And this is where Hayley Marshall caught my eyes for the first time.
