Chapter 7

Caroline didn't look at Klaus as they walked toward the mansion side by side. He had said that he cared about her and that now that she was an adult he was scared because it was turning into something completely different. What did it mean exactly? A part of her wished he was talking about love, she had never been loved by a man before. But she knew it wasn't it, Klaus wouldn't love her, not ever, he cared about her but he didn't even like her. So what was it? Did he mean that he wanted her body now that she was grown up? She had noticed that he wasn't looking at her the same way he used to look at her anymore, there was something different in the way he was looking at her.

But the fact that Caroline wasn't looking at him didn't mean that she didn't know he was looking at her. She could feel his eyes on her, the way he was watching her every move, scrutinizing her. She wanted so badly to look at him just for a second, just a second. She turned her head to the right her eyes meeting his intense blue ones and she quickly looked back in front of her, toward the house, her cheeks burning and she guessed that she must be blushing.

A smile appeared on Klaus' lips when he noticed Caroline's reddened cheeks. He was still mad though and he couldn't take his eyes off of her, to be sure that she was all right. When she turned toward him and blushed furiously his mind drifted back to what he had confessed to her, about his feelings towards her and in that very moment he was sure that she was thinking about that.

He didn't know what had taken over him, why he had confessed something like that but Klaus knew that Caroline appreciated honesty as much as he did. And now that he had said that to her he wasn't going to back down, now that she knew, what was keeping him from acting on his feelings? After all, he couldn't kill Caroline, he wasn't able to and his siblings would never forgive him, she was their family too and Klaus was finally starting to understand it even though Caroline was in no way HIS family, so if he couldn't kill her then he would have her, body and soul. Klaus' decision was now made and he knew Caroline would be a challenge, but he wasn't one to back down from a challenge. His thoughts were broken by Caroline's voice.

"Do you think Rebekah will be mad?" She asked not walking anymore and looking at the mansion.

Klaus stopped walking as well and turned toward Caroline, "I think she has no reason to be mad." he answered and Caroline turned toward him frowning, "What happened wasn't your fault." Klaus explained and Caroline nodded before looking once more toward the mansion and moving forward.

Klaus watched Caroline as she walked toward the mansion before starting to walk as well, following her quietly. She still had her gown but it was ripped at her side in a way that allowed Klaus to see a little part of her leg, she didn't have her corset anymore as it had been cut in two, her hair was a mess, she was in no way dressed in a decent way.

Klaus and Caroline reached the front door and just when Caroline was about to open it she was surprised when Klaus put his vest over her shoulders from behind her. Caroline frowned in confusion, why was Klaus so nice to her, so considerate? She didn't have time to think about it further as Klaus turned her around and her eyes landed on his lips, he was inches away from her and her eyes were at the level of his lips. She looked up to see that his eyes were concentrated on his vest that he was fastening in front of her. Caroline opened her mouth to say something and then closed it again.

She was lost, she didn't understand Klaus' behavior, he had tried to kill her earlier that day, and now since her attack he was acting all strange. If she would have still been a little girl she wouldn't have found this strange because when they were alone, when it was just the two of them, he always was nice, but since he came back and now that she was an adult he hadn't acted nice once. Caroline put her hands over Klaus' stopping him in his actions.

"What are you doing?" Caroline simply asked.

Klaus looked up into her eyes, "I'm covering you up, you don't have your corset it's indecent." he explained, And I don't want anyone else than me to see you so undressed, he added in his head.

Caroline immediately pulled her hands away as if he had burnt her, "Oh, thank you." She looked away as her cheeks reddened and Klaus finished with the vest.

Once Klaus was done with the vest he opened the front door and stepped to the side to let Caroline enter the mansion first. Caroline walked past him and started to walk toward the living room with Klaus following behind her. They both entered the living room to see that Rebekah, Kol, Elijah and Enzo were all there. Rebekah was the first one to notice them and she turned toward them to face them but her face fell when she saw Caroline.

"Oh my God, Caroline, what happened to you?" Rebekah exclaimed walking toward her and hugging her forcefully.

"You're holding me too tight, Bekah. I'm fine." Caroline said with a small smile appearing on her lips. Rebekah let go of her taking a step back and looked at her face.

"You're not fine you have a bruise on your face and you look like a mess." Rebekah pointed out frowning in anger, "Did you do this, Nik?" She asked her face shifting into her vampire face as she turned toward Klaus. Enzo was there but he couldn't see her face since he was behind her.

"Rebekah! Nik didn't do that." Caroline exclaimed taking a step to the side to put herself in front of Klaus. Rebekah's face shifted back to normal.

Now that Rebekah wasn't right in front of Caroline anymore Enzo could finally see her face and his eyes widened. He walked past Rebekah and cupped her face between his hands lightly touching her bruise with his thumb.

"Caroline, who did this to you? Who touched my fiancée?" Enzo asked angry and worried.

"I'm fine, Enzo. I-" Caroline started but Enzo cut her off.

"And whose vest is this?" He asked starting to unbutton Klaus' vest, "Take mine instead." But he was stopped when Klaus grabbed his wrists roughly.

"Don't touch her." Klaus growled, "Don't take this vest off, she isn't dressed decently under it."

Enzo took a step back freeing his wrists from Klaus' hands. He looked at Klaus menacingly for a few seconds before turning toward Caroline to see that she was buttoning the vest back.

"What do you mean she isn't dressed decently?" Enzo asked angrily, "Did you touch her?"

"You think I did this?" Klaus asked menacingly taking a step closer to Enzo but Caroline hurriedly put herself in front of Klaus.

"Nik stop it." Caroline asked calmly before turning toward Enzo, "It's not him, Enzo."

"What happened to you?" Enzo asked again.

"She was attacked and almost raped in the street by three drunken men." Klaus explained.

"No it wasn't like that." Caroline exclaimed seeing everyone with an horrified expression, "No one tried to rape me."

"They ripped your dress and took your corset off, if I understood well they also touched your chest, how do you call that?" Klaus asked.

"I don't want to talk about it." Caroline said before turning around and leaving the room hurriedly.

"Caroline wait." Rebekah called after her but Caroline didn't stop.

"It's late, I should leave." Enzo said but no one listened to him as they were all watching Caroline leave. He left without saying anything more.

Rebekah watched Enzo leave without saying a word. Once he was gone she turned back toward her brothers to see that Klaus was turning around and starting to walk towards the entrance of the room without saying anything. She wanted to know what had happened to Caroline. Was what Klaus had said true? If yes then she would find those men and she would rip them apart with no mercy. She felt the anger rise in her all at once.

"Where are you going, Nik?" Rebekah asked before he was out of the room.

"I want to talk to Caroline." Klaus simply answered turning toward his little sister.

"Is it true? What you said about what happened to her?" Rebekah asked praying for it not to be true.

"Yes, it is." Klaus answered.

"I'm going to find them and rip them apart." Rebekah said coldly and Klaus was reminded that his baby sister could be quite scary when she wanted to be.

"Look at me, Bekah. I'm covered in blood. Whose blood do you think it is?" Klaus asked with a cold voice too.

"Why?" Rebekah asked taken aback, "You saved her, why? You were the one trying to kill her earlier today."

"He what?" Kol exclaimed taking a step toward them, "You tried to kill Caroline?"

"Yes." Klaus answered as if it wasn't a big deal and Kol's features shifted, his vampire features appearing as he took yet another step toward Klaus. Klaus' face shifted too showing his golden eyes surrounded by black and the veins under his eyes.

"Back off, Kol." Klaus growled taking a step toward him as well.

"Enough! Both of you." Elijah intervened positioning himself between the two men, "Rebekah you should go talk to Caroline and you Niklaus clean yourself up you are all bloody."

"You can play father with Caroline but not with me, brother." Klaus spat his face back to normal.

"If you ever touch Caroline again I'll kill you, Nik." Kol exclaimed.

"I'd like to see you try now. We both know you'd end up in a coffin, Kol." Klaus pointed out nonchalantly before turning around and leaving the room to change clothes and clean up.

As soon as Klaus was out of the room Rebekah left as well climbing the stairs hurriedly before going into Caroline's room. She opened the door without knocking and quickly closed it behind her before turning toward the room to find Caroline seated on the edge of her bed. Caroline had changed and was now wearing her nightgown, ready to go to bed. Rebekah ran towards her and sat next to her taking her in her arms to hug her. After a few seconds she pulled away to look at Caroline.

"I'm so sorry, Caroline. We shouldn't have yelled at each other earlier." Rebekah said sounding sad.

"I'm sorry too." Caroline admitted looking up at her.

"Here, take my blood you have a bruise on your face." Rebekah proposed bringing her wrist up to her lips but Caroline grabbed it and put it back down.

"No, I don't want your blood." Caroline stated and seeing Rebekah's confusion she added, "You want me to have a normal human life then it means no magical healing."

"Are you twisting my own words?" She asked the anger noticeable in her voice, "You'll still have the bruise for the wedding."

Caroline looked down disappointed to see that she had been right and that Rebekah was still concentrated on that wedding even though Caroline didn't want it at all. Nothing would change Rebekah's mind and Caroline sighed in defeat. She couldn't say no to Rebekah, Rebekah had saved her life, taken her under her roof, taken care of her, raised her. The only reason why she was alive and she had a roof was Rebekah.

"Caroline, what those men did to you is horrible." Rebekah said after a few seconds of silence.

Tears started to fill Caroline's eyes but she swallowed them back, "I don't want to talk about it."

"But Caroline-" Rebekah started but Caroline cut her off.

"I don't want to talk about it." She repeated, "Can you leave me alone please? I'm tired."

"Yes, of course." Rebekah said before hugging Caroline once more and leaving her room.

Once Caroline was alone she stood up and walked toward the full length mirror that she had in her room. She looked at her reflection and sighed. All of a sudden she saw the man touching her breasts and she took a step back, she wanted to vomit, she felt disgusting. The memory drifted away when she heard her door being opened and closed. She turned around and was met by Klaus.

"I want to be alone." Caroline announced folding her arms in front of her chest to hide herself a little more.

"I just wanted to see if you were all right." Klaus stated and Caroline frowned.

"Stop. Stop acting like that. I don't understand why you are so nice. No I'm not all right but I don't want to talk about it and especially not with you." Caroline exclaimed relishing her anger on him, "Why did you have to say that in front of everyone? They didn't need to know they touched me." Caroline almost yelled tightening her arms around her chest, "Did you really have to say that in front of Elijah, Kol and Enzo? Enzo won't even want to marry me anymore, he didn't say a single word after you said that."

"They were accusing me of doing this this to you-" Klaus said to defend himself but Caroline cut him off.

"You could have said I was attacked without saying they touched my chest." Caroline exclaimed her eyes filling with tears.

"And I don't see where the problem is if Enzo doesn't want to marry you anymore, you don't want to marry him." Klaus continued.

"I don't have a choice, it's what Rebekah wants so I will marry him. I owe her everything." Caroline explained seeing his confused look. His confusion turned into anger.

"You don't have to marry a man you don't want to marry." Klaus exclaimed coldly, "You won't marry this man, Caroline."

"This is none of your business." Caroline pointed out lowering her voice.

"Well I'm making it my business now." Klaus growled and Caroline didn't understand his anger.

Caroline didn't answer anything and turned around. They were both quiet for a few minutes and Caroline even wondered if he was still there but she stopped herself from turning around to be sure. Her mind drifted back to what had happened in the street and she looked down at her folded arms over her chest. Maybe she could talk about it with him, he had seen it, he had been there, and for some reason he was nice to her. She needed to talk about it to someone but she didn't want to have to relate what had happened to anyone, with him she wouldn't have to, he already knew.

"I feel disgusting." Caroline whispered eventually breaking the silence keeping her back turned on him. If she didn't look at him then it would be like she was alone, "It was the first time a man ever touched me and it was horrible. And now I feel disgusting. You might think I'm silly but I didn't realize that they had been about to rape me until you said it. I don't like it, I don't want to be touched there anymore, not ever. I feel dirty. I..." Caroline trailed off when she felt two strong hands on her waist. She unfolded her arms to grab his wrists with her hands.

"What are you doing, Nik?" Caroline asked confused.

"You are so young, Caroline, so innocent." Klaus whispered his breath tickling Caroline's right ear. Klaus' hands went higher toward her stomach and Caroline's hands tightened around his wrists.

"Nik..." Caroline trailed off, "What are you doing?"

"Let me show you, Caroline." Klaus whispered pushing her back against his chest.

"Show me what?" Caroline wondered out of breath.

"How it feels to be touched there." Klaus explained lowering his head to place open mouthed kissed on the side of her neck.

Caroline's heart fastened considerably and Klaus heard it. Her breath itched when his hands went higher and stopped just under her breasts, almost touching them. Caroline closed her eyes feeling his lips and tongue on her neck. She had never been kissed anywhere else than on her cheek and she had to admit that she loved when Klaus kissed her like this, on her neck. For a second the idea that maybe he could bite her and drain her like earlier crossed her mind but it soon disappeared when he kissed her a little higher and started to grit his teeth on her jaw. A little moan escaped her lips and she opened her eyes.

"Nik, don't." She said but her body disagreed with her and her hands loosened around his wrists.

As soon as Klaus felt her grip loosen he went even higher and cupped her breasts over her nightgown. Caroline gasped her lips slightly parted in a beautiful way and he felt her nipples hardening in his hands through her nightgown. Her breasts were full and the perfect size for him to grab them in his manly hands. Klaus could feel himself hardening for her but he ignored it, it wasn't about him.

"Ask me to stop, Caroline. Do it and I'll stop." He whispered against her jaw.

Caroline didn't want him to stop, she should but she didn't. She had been wrong when she said she didn't want anyone to ever touch her there. She wanted Klaus to and she didn't want him to stop. Klaus started to move his hands on her breasts and brushed his thumb over her nipples which sent an electric charge through Caroline's body and she moaned arching her back against him which caused her bottom to press against Klaus' manhood and she felt his excitement. Klaus growled in her neck and unconsciously pushed his hips forward.

"Don't do that." He said with a hoarse voice.

"What?" Caroline asked breathlessly. Klaus lightly pinched her nipples and Caroline arched her back once more pushing her bottom against his hard manhood.

"That." Klaus growled starting to kiss her shoulder, "I need to stay in control over my body and it's not helping."

"I can't help it." Caroline moaned as Klaus continued to tease her breasts, "What happens if you lose control?"

Klaus pinched her nipples again and she moaned even louder than before, "I take your nightgown off and I take you on your bed, or maybe against the wall."

"And if I ask you to stop, would you stop?" Caroline asked pushing her bottom against him once more.

"Caroline..." Klaus growled as a warning, "I wouldn't be in control of my body."

"Would you stop?" Caroline asked again tilting her head backward against his chest keeping her eyes shut.

Klaus looked at her parted lips and licked his lips, "Yes."

"I know." Caroline whispered, she knew he would never force her, not for something like that.

"Have you ever been kissed on the lips, Caroline?" Klaus asked huskily.

"No." Caroline whispered.

Klaus bent down and placed a small peck on her lips. Then he let go of Caroline's breasts and grabbed her shoulders to turn her around. As soon as she was facing him he crashed his lips on hers and pushed Caroline until her back was against the wall. Caroline brought her arms around Klaus' neck and kissed him back. Klaus' arms came around her waist and pushed her chest against his, she could feel his muscles under his shirt and she gasped. Klaus took the opportunity to enter his tongue in her mouth and find hers. After a few seconds he slightly pulled away keeping their bodies pressed against each other and looked at her face to see her slowly opening her eyes. He brought his hand to her face and brushed his thumb over her lower lip.

"You are ravishing when you've just been kissed." Klaus whispered and a small smile appeared on Caroline's lips, "I won't ever let another man touch you like I did, I won't ever let another man hear you moan, I won't ever let another man kiss your neck, your jaw, your shoulder, I won't ever let another man be the reason why your lips are swollen, why your cheeks are flushed."

Klaus' possessiveness brought Caroline back to reality. What had she done? She was engaged to Enzo she couldn't let another man touch her. It was wrong. She lost her smile and brought her hands to Klaus' arms to try to make him let go of her but he kept his arms around her waist and her pressed against him.

"Nik, it was a mistake." Caroline said with a small voice, "I don't know what took over me, I'm confused. I'm engaged to another man."

"I won't let you marry him." Klaus said a little harshly.

Caroline gave up on trying to make him let go of her by pulling at his arms and brought her hands to his chest to try to push him away but he didn't budge, of course he didn't, he was a freaking hybrid. Klaus bent down and tried to kiss her lips once more but Caroline turned her head to the side and his lips ended up on her cheek.

"Klaus stop!" Caroline said curtly and Klaus instantly pushed himself away from her, "I am engaged to another man you can't do this."

Klaus felt the anger rise in him. Klaus had always been a very jealous man but he had never wanted a woman like he wanted Caroline and now that he had accepted it and that he had admitted it he wouldn't back down, now that he had had a taste of her lips he wouldn't back down. She was his now, he had marked her, she was his from now on and would always be. His wolf side was screaming from the insides, pushing him to claim her, right there and then, even if it meant forcing her and he was glad he only was half werewolf because if he would have been entirely a werewolf he wasn't sure he wouldn't have done it.

"You let me touche you, kiss you, you provoke me and then you think I will let you marry another man?" Klaus asked angrily staying where he was, keeping his distance from her not wanting to lose control over his temper.

"You don't usually mind the women you touch getting married with other men." Caroline pointed out folding her arms over her chest.

"I usually only want women for their bodies. But you, I want you whole, body and soul, and I'll have you." Klaus explained coldly.

"You speak of me as if I have no choice in the matter. I am not something for you to possess." Caroline exclaimed outraged.

"You are a woman, you are something for men to possess." Klaus pointed out annoyed.

"Is it what you think? That women are things for men to possess?" Caroline asked taken aback.

"It is not what I think it is how things are, Caroline." Klaus yelled, he wasn't used to someone other than Rebekah or his brothers arguing with him. But he had to be careful because with Caroline it was different, he couldn't just break her neck to make her shut up, it would kill her.

"I'm glad I'm engaged to Enzo and not a man like you." Caroline spat and at the mention of her being engaged to another man another impulse of claiming her came back crashing on Klaus and he took an unconscious step towards Caroline but when he realized it he stopped himself.

"Watch your tongue, Caroline! I'm a wolf, I have werewolf instincts. And I'm an alpha male" He said curtly.

Caroline observed his demeanor and noticed that he was restraining himself, he was tensed and holding back. She didn't know he was restraining himself from doing what exactly but since he was restraining himself she guessed it wasn't something good.

"What? I can't say I'm engaged to Enzo?" Caroline asked even though she knew she shouldn't provoke him.

"I need to fuck someone." Klaus said under his breath, he hadn't intended to say it out loud but he had and he didn't really care. He needed to regain control over his impulses before he hurt her.

"What? Oh so that's what you wanted? You wanted to fuck me and you couldn't so now you are just going to leave just after touching me and fuck another woman, touch another woman." Caroline exclaimed feeling her jealousy rising, she couldn't be jealous she just told him it had been a mistake. But he couldn't just touch her like that and then do the same with another woman, she knew she wasn't special, she never was anyone's first choice, she had nothing special but still. She had still thought that maybe he would be considerate enough not to make her understand that she was nothing special and she was replaceable.

"Unfortunately no, I said I needed it not that I would do it. You're the only woman I want." Klaus sighed.

"Unfortunately." Caroline repeated, if he had wanted to make her feel any better it hadn't worked one bit, it couldn't work if he started his sentence by 'unfortunately'.

"Yes, unfortunately I always want things I can't get. But in the end I always get what I want, don't forget that, sweetheart." Klaus said harshly and Caroline stayed silent.

"Please, not here." Caroline said after a few minutes of silence.

"Not here what?" Klaus asked confused. He was calm now, the silence had helped him calm down.

"Don't bring a woman here, in the room just next to mine. I get it, I'm replaceable, I'm nothing special but-" Caroline explained but Klaus cut her off.

"I said I wouldn't fuck another woman. I'm half werewolf, Caroline, which is why I have horrible instincts like claiming you even if it's against your will every time you mention Enzo but it also means that I'm loyal to the female I choose to be mine." Klaus explained calmly, "Which means I only want you."

A chill ran down Caroline's spine when he said his instincts were telling him to claim her even against her will, but she knew he wouldn't let himself go that far, would he? No he wouldn't, Caroline's heartbeat fastened. She couldn't really be happy about the fact that he wouldn't touch another woman and that he only wanted her when he was saying in the same sentence that if he would let his instincts win over his moral he would rape her. Should she be afraid right now? Oh My God, of course she should.

Klaus saw in her eyes everything that was going on in her head and he felt like she had stabbed him for even thinking that he could do that.

"I would die before letting that happen." He simply said and she snapped out of her thoughts.

"What?" She asked frowning.

"I know what you are thinking, you are wondering if I would force you. I would die before letting that happen." Klaus said before turning around to leave her room.

"Your behavior is so confusing. You've been hateful to me since you came back, you even tried to kill me today. And now you want me? Body and Soul? You want me and you say you choose me or I don't know what." Caroline said and Klaus stopped at the door turning toward her.

"Like I said, I'm an alpha male, I need an alpha female, I've just never cared for a woman enough to choose her before, not until you. As for my hateful behavior, I already told you that I was trying to push my feelings for you away and ignore them, now that I accepted them, I will have you, Caroline, and with me nothing will ever happen to you." And with that Klaus left.

Caroline looked at the door. What he had just said, it had sounded like a threat, was he threatening her? He could say whatever he wanted in the end she was engaged to another man anyway, a man she didn't love, not in that way, a man she didn't want to marry, a man who didn't want her and wanted another woman, but she was still engaged to him.

Enzo was the life Rebekah wanted for her, and a part of her knew that Klaus was the life she wanted for herself. But she loved Rebekah, so much that she would put her wishes aside for Rebekah's.

So? Please leave a review and let me know what you think!

Oh and for Klaus' instincts, I don't know what are the instincts of a wolf or a werewolf but it's fiction and it's my plot so I can choose, lol.
