"Not how it's meant to be"

Klaus was standing in front of the exquisite mansion on Wickery road, his soon to be home, and waiting for her. He was a thousand year old hybrid, not a lot could surprise him, but even he had to admit … he had experienced quite the surprising morning … Rebekah went on a shopping spree so he was alone in the hotel bedroom. He was just stepping out of the shower when his phone rang. Unidentified number? He decided to answer it anyway. Maybe it was Tyler calling him the second time that morning to arrange the details of their meeting that afternoon. Tyler was apparently the guy that would show him the mansion and bring the documents he needed to sign, so he could have his lovely little home in the very own Mystic Falls. He had the information that the little mansion or rather say the massive mansion was the project of Joseph's daughter's, but he knew Joseph would never let her go near him. He knew better than that. Very well, he would find another way to get to her. It was only a matter of time when he would meet the pretty blonde in person.

"Yes?" Klaus finally answered his phone.

"Brother, so nice to hear from you. Haven't been in touch lately."

"Elijah, brother, I was wondering when you'll finally call… and check up on me."

"Well I wish I didn't have to check up on you. But a little birdie told me you were in Mystic Falls."

"I see our dear sister has gotten really bored, no good stores here really, so she just had to call you for a little chitchat."

"Oh, and your whereabouts are a secret now Niklaus?"

" No, but you know I don't like to answers to anyone. Not even you."

And then Elijah's tone changed a bit, or better said, no more chitchat, he went straight to the point.

"What are you doing in Mystic Falls brother?"

"Oh, just nesting, building a home for myself. Picking out carpets and drapes … Maybe even getting a dog. Which breed would suit me brother?"

"Klaus, I know who's in Mystic Falls. I don't want another hundred year war with the Salvatore's. Whatever you're up to …"

"Brother, brother, brother … always so paranoid. Cut me some slack, alright? I have to go now, the pizza delivery man just showed up, don't want for Bekah to get to him before I do."

he said and hung up before Elijah could answer.

Of course there was no pizza man or Rebekah but he had just about enough of his "always so cool" brother and his "don't do this and don't do that" attitude. It was best for Elijah not to know about the Moonstone. He would just try to stop him. And he couldn't be stopped. There was nothing he wanted more than to break the fucking curse. It was the only thing stopping him from becoming practically immortal. And who wouldn't want that? He never gotten the love and the affection he once, when he still had some humanity in him, wanted but he will sure as hell become immortal. No one and nothing would stop him.

He barely turned around to grab a t-shirt from the bed when his phone started ringing again. What the hell? Elijah really wasn't giving up. Persistent bastard. He just wouldn't answer it. But the phone was ringing and ringing and Klaus just got tiered of it. Of course, the number was again unidentified.

"What in the bloody name to you want now?"

"Well, I have to say I have heard a lot of greetings but this must be the most original one."

Ok, this definitely wasn't Elijah, Klaus thought. It was definitely a woman's voice and a very sexy one. Was this one of those sex calls or something? Klaus was not in the mood for this. This had started as a crappy day.

"Who is this?" he said in his most threatening voice.

"Oh, I'm sorry, I was about to introduce myself when you ambushed me with your sweet hello. This is Caroline Salvatore, and I am calling to inform you that I'll be handling your purchase of the mansion you're interested in. Do you have any objections to that?"

When you live a thousand years there is not much that can surprise you, but he was surprised, shocked even. So this sexy voice belonged to the hot little Salvatore girl. And she was calling him, wanting to do business with him? What was Joseph thinking? Was this some kind of a trap? Million thoughts ran through his head. But even if it was … Curiosity got the best of him … He was dying to meet her, and this was his chance. Even if she was setting him into some kind of a trap, he knew she was no match for him. In the end, she was just a little baby vampire.

"And what happened to Tyler, if I may ask?" he finally spoke.

"Oh Tyler, he had some other errands to run. And don't worry Mr. Mikaelson you're in good hands, I know everything about that house, every single detail. So can we meet today, let's say in two hours? Could that be arranged?"

"You don't waste time Miss Salvatore."

"Not when it comes to business. Or anything else for that matter."

"I like that in a woman." he said and couldn't believe he was already using his charm on her, and they haven't even met in person. But her voice was just so intoxicating. Like a pretty little song that should be hummed softly, into his ear … he thought and shivered. He had to stop imagining her or he would need another cold shower, and they haven't even met yet.

He was supposed to seduce her, not the other way around; he kept telling himself while he was standing in front of the mansion waiting for the owner of the sexy voice to show up. He saw the pictures but wondered if she was as beautiful in person. Nowadays with all the make-up and not to mention Photoshop and that kind of nonsense you could never know for sure. Not till you strip them bare. Why did his mind go there again? He needed to find some nice local girl and have his way with her, in every possible way. That would ease the tension. This entire Moonstone thing, all these Salvatore's, his brother's, his sister, he just needed a good rampage to forget everything. He even started imagining this rampage, after which little lovely Mystic Falls would never be quite the same, when he saw a black car approaching. The lovely Salvatore was arriving, he thought to himself, with a slight grin on his face. Game time.

But whatever he thought, whatever he wanted, faded away when he saw… HER. He had seen beauties and radiance through the years, but she was something else. As the Sun gleamed through her golden curls he knew he was dealing with a goddess. And her body … He got chills just by looking at her; she had one perfect curve after another. His mind was playing with the idea what he could do with every one of those. Repeatedly.

And than she took her sunglasses off. And looked at him, straight at him, with her big baby blue eyes. And he was done for. This was definitely not how things were meant to go down.
