Author's Note: I wonder how Caroline is going to get out of this. I'll explain the man later. Let's get to it.
I hope you enjoyed the story as much as I like writing it.

Caroline didn't know what to say to Klaus's question. She had a right mind to compel him to forget that he heard what her 'daughter' had said, but it pained her. She couldn't just hold his gaze and make him forget, because then she would have to do it all.
She didn't want to take away what made him him. And she couldn't just do that. She needed a greater reason to do the task and she probably wouldn't do it either.
"Why did Isobel call you mother and what do you mean Mikael isn't my father?"
He repeated his question, clearing his throat, extending his hand to grab for her arm, pulling her away from the door.
He had only heard their conversation because he was walking out to make sure that Caroline was alright. He told his mother stay back and that he was fed up with her shit. He hadn't of cared of the man or who he was. His first thought was to check on his wife, all after last night. He found himself attached to her.
She was quiet for a moment, looking away from his eyes. She knew that if she looked into them she would reveal everything. She couldn't have that. He'd be disgusted with her.
"My mother thinks she can see into the future. It's a gut feeling thing. She just assumes. She's crazy."
Klaus's jaw tensed. He lowered his head, his eyes boring into her. She looked up, looking back at him, flinching underneath the stare.
The irony of the entire situation?
She was scared of him, actually scared of him. He was human and she was not, but his eyes were cold looking.
"Are you lying to me? My father lies to me. My mother lies to me. She coddles me. My brother lies to me. Don't be added to the list of people that I hate, Caroline. I actually care about you."
Caroline swallowed hard, parting her lips, biting on her bottom lip nervously.
She knew what she had to do. Those words broke her. She never actually had someone care for her before. Her maker had lied. He wanted her to do things that she couldn't even think about or tell Isobel. She found no reason too. She had believed that she had felt something for her maker, but found it was just a lie. His blood in her would make her go needy for him, even if she didn't want him.
And he used that against her, every single time.
She reached out for his hand, grabbing it. He didn't fight it. He waited for a moment, watching curiously as she opened his hand and held it over her heart.
He shook his head, eying her strangely, wondering what exactly this was supposed to prove when he felt it.
He felt nothing. He removed his hand from off her chest, bending down to place his ear there, his eyes looking around, trying to find it, but heard nothing. It was as if she was….
He pulled back as if she had burned him. He swallowed the hard lump that formed in his throat.
"What are you?"
She was shocked. She thought he'd run from the hills, screaming, but he hadn't. He was still eying her curiously.
She gulped, taking a step forward. She heard off in the distance about the man that was there. He was telling them about finding one of their well known maids, Chantal. She was hanging from the tree, well her body was. Her head was on a spike, her eyes gouged out.
Caroline parted her lips, letting the tip of tongue hang out of her mouth as she closed her eyes, remembering how sweet the blood tasted, how it felt to drain the girl, how her heart had slowly died.
She shuddered, growling lowly, letting her veins appear along her cheeks, her fangs extending to its full length. She opened her eyes slowly and instead of her normal blues, they were black.
She looked upon him, seeing him in a different light. Her body warmed at the sight of him. She exhaled heavily, waiting for a reaction as she stood before him.
She needed something. She needed anything from him.
She was about ready to turn around or compel him, but then he did the unthinkable.
He grabbed for her and kissed her, fangs and all.
/Hours later/
Esther sat outside. It was near bed time and she felt that she needed the air.
The heat from breakfast had been intense and the execution of one of the gladiators for not healing as he should have, had been gruesome for her eyes.
She flinched at the memory, biting the inside of her cheek as she sipped on her glass of water. The goblet was worn out and dirty, but the inside was not. She had the maid standing beside her clean it before she even placed her drink into it.
She looked around, her eyes settling on Klaus's balcony before she moved over towards her own. She saw her husband standing there; his back turned, facing inside their chamber.
He looked tense, but he always had. He had been getting tenser and tenser ever since that girl stepped foot into their home. She rolled her eyes, lying out on the small bench, letting her thoughts trail off.
At first it was Klaus, she wondered what Caroline had said to them once they left. They hadn't come back. And she hoped that Caroline was treating Klaus right, if she wasn't. Esther would have her and her crazy lunatic mother put down. A simple trickery or treason of some sort would settle.
She nodded, sipping on her cup of water, turning towards the maid that was standing beside her.
She was beautiful, sandy like skin, soft eyes, and wavy brown hair. She looked odd as she stared out, but Esther cleared her throat, loudly, set the maid back to look at her.
"Bonnie, where is your mind these days? You just wonder off."
Bonnie shrugged, looking down at Esther as she lay out on the bench. She smiled faintly, shaking her head, her hair going everywhere. "Nothing and nowhere, my lady, my mind wonders sometimes, but I am fine."
Esther watched Bonnie curiously. She waited a moment before opening her mouth to speak, already trying to figure out Bonnie's thoughts because Bonnie wasn't sure going to tell her. "Is this about Klaus's marriage? I hope you did suspect that he would fall in love with a girl like you. We are a strong family. We are attracted to wealth and power. You are nothing, absolutely nothing. I hate the Forbes girl, but at least she has fortune growing out of her buttocks. She is gorgeous. I'll have my grandchildren."
Esther nodded, not seeing the evil glare that Bonnie was giving her.
"Oh really, Esther, I'm not stupid. I do know what's going on. It's funny how every morning Mikael kisses your well used lips and your stomach, not knowing the evil within."
Esther turned her head back to Bonnie, searching her face for the change in mood.
"Excuse me?"
Bonnie scoffed.
"I'm fed up with you, my lady. You are horse shit." She spat at her. "You have cheated on Lord Mikael for god knows how long. Gabriel and Elijah were Mikaels. I know about everything. You should remember who you speak to about your affairs. Clarie told me everything." Bonnie scowled, not even caring that they could get severely get them in trouble, killed if even, but she did not even care.
Esther looked appalled as she looked at Bonnie, raising her hand to slap her, but a loud laugh erupted around them. Esther slowly turned hoping it wasn't Katherina, Caroline, or even Klaus for the matter, but it was…
"You don't even belong here."
Isobel shrugged, letting her hands cover her lower body as she walked to them in her white gown.
"What I believed was right. I do have a good nose about things. I'm surprised that Mikael doesn't know about this, but as an observer. I will gladly tell him." Isobel tilted her head smirking.
Esther jumped to her feet, fixing her mouth, collecting all her spit and spat in front of Isobel. It hit her toes.
"Mikael will not believe you. I am his wife and you are some pathetic thing." She said with venom in her words, hoping to threaten her, wanting her to back off.
"Wife who cheats and lies to manipulate others? Mikael believes all his children are his. But after what I heard I will tell him. I am very convincing." Her eyes widen at the word.
Esther yelled in frustration. She grabbed for her cup, without thinking. She threw it. It hit Isobel across the face, knocking her head to the side.
It was only after that Esther had realized what she had done. She had turned towards Bonnie, shushing her. "You won't tell anyone about this."
Bonnie said nothing, looking down. She knew she had said enough.
Esther turned back to Isobel, looking around at her own feet to find anything to throw at her. She was pregnant and would fight.
"Look at me, Esther."
Esther slowly raised her head to look at Isobel and was stunned.
There was a large gash across Isobel's face. It started at her nose to her cheek. The skin hung down as blood flowed freely from her wound.
Esther felt her heart beat faster in her chest.
I caused that
But then, it healed, right before her eyes. Isobel was grinning, sinisterly as her flap of skin stretched to cover the gash, the blood disappearing as well. Isobel opened her mouth, stretching her muscles, hoping nothing had been damaged.
She was fine, nothing had.
"W-what the gods of Olympus are you?"
Isobel took a step closer, her eyes fading to black, her fangs extending as she stood there.
"I was coming out to warn you of speaking of my mother, but I think this will do just fine."
Esther couldn't believe what she was hearing. She shook her head, eying her strangely, backing away, but Bonnie didn't move. She was just as terrified at the sight.
She whimpered. "Please don't hurt me. I did nothing wrong."
Isobel shook her head. "Who said I was going to hurt you, Bunny." She smirked once more, her eyes turned over towards Esther. She pointed a long slender finger. "I want her."
Esther opened her mouth to speak, but her forming scream was caught in her throat as she saw black and white cloud over her.

Damon watched them again. He was intrigued by Klaus. He was giving it to her as if he was one of them.
He tilted his head; his thirst was near unquenchable at this point.
She was laid out on the bed, her legs bent at the knee, spread wide before him as he pleasured her.
Damon felt his eyes flicker towards Caroline's breast to Klaus, nothing on Klaus, just Klaus.
He was sucking furiously on her. She was arching her back, her hands tearing at the sheets.
He had just flown over, not too long ago. He was passing through, preparing his departure to Athens, deciding to wreck some havoc over there before coming back. He would have bled and terrorized the people over here, but didn't want Caroline to know he was there.
"Fuck…" Caroline moaned, sitting up quickly. One minute she was laid out and the next she was on her knees and Klaus was lying out on the bed.
She told him!
He couldn't believe this. When he showed Caroline who he really was, it hadn't of ended well. She screamed her head off and he had to compel her to shut up, but Klaus wasn't screaming in horror. He was moaning and groaning and enjoying his time with Caroline, his Caroline.
She was sucking him into her mouth, moaning at the feel of him.
Damon growled, trying his hardest not to barge in and stop the entire thing. He tensed up as Caroline then, crawled up Klaus's body and sat herself upon him. She moaned as he filled her.
Fuck
Damon shook his head. He would have to change his plans. He was not leaving until either Klaus was disgusted by Caroline or Caroline was tired of the human thing.
It was sickening him to even think of Caroline as human.
She was a monster as was he.
They didn't do humans. They used them.
They didn't care for them. They ate them.
They didn't act cute and cuddly with them. They murdered them.
And they certainly didn't love them either. They were unlovable.
It was what his maker told him.
Another chapter in the same day, that's crazy. I hope you enjoyed this chapter. I know it's odd, but I was hoping that Esther and Isobel's face off was as 'epic' as you thought it was. There will be more in the future. Yes, I have written Damon as a pervert watching Caroline and Klaus do it, but I'm hoping that for the next couple of chapters you can get a better understanding of Damon and how he raised Caroline. I will also have a flash back memory for Damon and Caroline. I'm talking a lot so, see you next chapter.
