"Klaus, please. Come home. Your son misses you greatly. I can't get him to stop crying." Hayley was begging. I ignored her pleas.
"Why? Because he's missing the one constant he has?" That constant was my scent. By now my scent would have grown stale. If he could even smell it that is. "He's had his first word by the way. It was along the lines of Daddy." I told her. Lucien was busy out getting us someone to feed from while I waited inside for him to bring back breakfast.
"Geena misses you too."
"I'm sorry but you've already kicked me out of their lives and your lives so I did the last thing that had to be done to give you the life you so desperately wanted. Removing me from the picture." I hung up. Give them time to soak on that.
I wait about three hours, moving about the place, laying on the furniture in different positions as I waited 'patiently' for Lucien to return with breakfast. I groaned as I felt all that anger return to me. I decided I'd need to do something for Tyler and Jeremy and sent Marcel recordings of me teaching their next lessons and told him that tomorrow I'd have Tyler and Jeremy handled myself. I'll come up with a place we can meet to do our lessons.
I looked up when one of the doors opened. I looked up excitedly only to see his bloody witch. "Waiting for Lucien still?"
"He promised breakfast, he said he'd get it today and I said that I'd get lunch but what the hell is taking him so long?"
"He got cornered by the police. He's being questioned by a man named Kinney or something."
"Kinney will be breakfast then." I replied, getting up.
"Bring Lucien back in one piece please."
"Don't worry sweetheart, Lucien's my friend." I called to her over my shoulder.
I arrived to the room I could hear his voice coming from to find him in the room with Vincent and Camille. "Camille, Vincent, I like the both of you but if you don't leave Lucien alone then I'll be forced to step in with the police department." I grabbed Lucien by his shirt and lifted him out of his chair. "We're leaving. Now." I said, dragging him out the building. When we were a few blocks away I let him go. "What the hell was that?" I asked.
"Their questioning me about Tristan's murders."
"Tristan?" I asked.
"Glad to see they let you go. They just found another body. You're clearly not the bad guy. Don't leave town." A man said. I turned to look at him before grabbing and pinning him up against the wall, showing my hybrid face as my fangs came out.
"And I'm glad breakfast walked onto my doorstep." I was about to bite into his neck when I heard Camille.
"Klaus! Don't!" I groaned before turning to look at her. "He's my friend and he's a local." So? Why should I care if he's a bloody local? I turned back to him, compelling him.
"You remember nothing."
"I remember nothing."
"'Go'."
"I'm thankful you didn't. I don't need a death pinned on me Nik." Lucien said as Camille took the man away.
"I'm still hungry and you did not deliver. Instead you let yourself get arrested." I said, looking straight at him. With that I turned and left him standing there. I headed back to the apartment he had.
