Klaus is sitting in his study with a glass of blood in his hand as his progeny sits across from him.
"You are sure that there is no trace of of the white oak stake" Lucien asks?
"Positive my lunatic aunt destroyed it" Klaus says taking a sip of his drink.
Artemis comes downstairs dressed in black leggings, combat boots and a black jacket.
"Where are you going" Klaus asks?
"Taking a walk on the wild side" Artemis says.
"No you are staying here" Klaus says.
"I don't listen to you" Artemis says walking towards the door.
"I said stay here" Klaus growls.
All of a sudden this major pressure comes in her head, she falls to her knees whimpering and groaning in pain. Lucien watches the exchange but says nothing, Klaus then realises that he used an alpha control and did not notice. He then sees her crawl towards the door reaching with one hand out, she has to get away from him. He uses his vampire speed and grabs her shoulders picking her up while looking her in the eye. Her eyes are slightly closed in pain and he sees her temple throbbing, along with the blood pumping to it.
"Let me go" she says fighting against the invisible reigns he has around her.
"It's not safe" he states.
"Like you give a rats ass about me" she snarls.
"On contrary belief love, I care for you a great deal" Klaus says reaching up placing his hand on her cheek.
She flinches a little as his hand comes in contact with her skin and instantly it's like her body heats up an she inadvertently presses against him. Lucien watches the scene unfold when he feels a shift in the air and the smell of roses and vanilla fills his nose along with Klaus's.
"What is that sweet smell" he asks peering around the corner but the closer he gets to Artemis the more his nose burns.
Klaus growls ferociously at the thought of Lucien touching Artemis and he wraps his arms tighter around her, it's like his inner wolf is taking a protective stance. Freya comes down the stairs after feeling the shift in the air and sees Klaus and Artemis in each other's arm and Lucien holding his nose.
"Oh no that's bad" Freya says.
"Please tell me you know what's going on" Lucien asks?
"Do I know you" Freya asks?
"I'm the first vampire Klaus has ever sired" Lucien says.
"What happened before they became like this" Freya asks?
"He told her she can not leave but she ignored him and the told her using more force and then she was in pain" Lucien says.
"He used the alpha voice and a female can't fight against it" Freya says.
"Well what is that horrid smell" Lucien asks?
"Artemis must have unoticeably started going into heat and Klaus sensed it, a female wolf body sends off a sent to let others know she is in heat. Her mate then responds instantly" Freya says.
"What happens during this heat" Lucien asks?
"She becomes very fertile which is why we need to break them up before they start mating" Freya says.
Klaus eyes are now gold and he snaps his fangs at Freya as she tries to pull Artemis out of his arms.
"Klaus listen to me, you can not start the mating process not in the middle of a war" Freya says.
"Mine" he hisses.
"Yes she is yours but you have to fight it" Freya says placing her hand on his arm.
Klaus looks at Freya and then back at Artemis and doesn't move, he goes to run them upstairs but Freya presses his should blade and he falls out like a light. Freya steps over Klaus and looks at Artemis who whines at the lost of Klaus.
"Hey focus. Go in your room and do not come out" Freya says.
Artemis heads up the steps while Freya looks at Klaus shaking her head. This usually wouldn't work on him,but she added magic to knock him out.
"We need to keep them apart until her cycle ends" Freya says turning around to see Lucien has disappeared.

Klaus wakes up rubbing his head and shoulder to see he is lying on the couch in his study with Freya standing over him.
"What did you do to me" he asks?
"You are in the middle of a brewing war and we do not need you distracted by giving into your inner wolf desire" Freya says.
"Where is she, her scent is here" Klaus asks?
"She's in her room where you can not go" Freya says as he stands up when there is a knock at the door.
He heads downstairs with Freya opening the door to see Elijah and Hayley.
"Hello have you come here to betray me again" Klaus says.
"We have done nothing to you" Hayley snarls.
"Then I guess until you admit that you lied and tried to steal my daughter from me, then you will not be invited in" Klaus says.
"Look Klaus, Tristan is back in town which means Aurora and probably close by" Elijah says.
"I do not need protection" Klaus says when Artemis whines from upstairs and his head snaps towards her bedroom door.
"Klaus focus or I will hurt you" Freya says.
"What's happening about the little wolf bitch" Hayley says.
Freya tries to warn Hayley to watch her tongue but is too late, Klaus snarls and his eyes flash gold as he slams Hayley against the outside wall.
"Do not talk about her like that again" he growls
"Niklaus let her go" Elijah says.
"It won't work, his wolf is taking over" Freya says as Hope cries.
"Coming littlest wolf" Klaus says heading back in the house.
"What is wrong with him" Hayley asks?
"You insulted his mate" Freya says.
"Come again" Elijah asks?
"Artemis is a true alpha female who can control any wolf of any pack and Klaus is her alpha male. She is currently in heat which is why they can not be near one another" Freya says.
Jackson appears behind them gasping as he holds his wrists out which has multiple slashes like he has cut himself.
"Jackson what have you done" Elijah asks?
"Since yesterday I've had these bad thoughts that won't go away" Jackson says.
"It must have been Artemis, yesterday she gave you a demand without knowing it. This won't stop until you die" Freya says.
"There has to be a way to stop this" Hayley says.
"Artemis has to tell him to stop but if Klaus catches one whiff of her then he will come for her" Freya says.
"I'll hold him back" Elijah says.
"You aren't invited in" Freya reminds.
"Yes brother our sister is correct" Klaus says.
"Niklaus let us in so Artemis can heal Jackson" Elijah says as Klaus rocks his sleeping daughter.
"Fine you may come in but only for this one time" Klaus says.
"I will go get her" Freya says.
-X-
In the study, Artemis is in front of Jackson looking very confused while Elijah is holding back a very annoyed and aroused Klaus.
"I don't know what to do" Artemis says.
"Command that he is too live" Freya says.
"But I don't like him or Hayley" Artemis says.
Klaus growls and goes to bite at Elijah's arms for holding him back, Hayley watches as she holds Hope in her arms.
"Let me go brother" Klaus snaps.
"Not until she heals him" Elijah says.
"Please" Jackson pleads.
"Save the begging it only makes me hate you more. I wish you live" Artemis says.
Jackson automatically drops against her after feeling this burdern off his body, Klaus viciously snarls and pushes Elijah off of him before using his vampire speed running over to Jackson pulling him off of Artemis and throws him on the couch.
"Keep your hands off of what's mine" Klaus snaps at him when her scent hits him again and he turns to face her with a lust filled look on his face.
"Klaus stand down" Elijah says.
Klaus picks up Artemis in his arms and running up the stairs, his bedroom door is then slammed close and locked.
"Great just great. Now he is going to M.I.A for a while" Freya says.
"How long is a while" Hayley asks?
"She will be in heat for few days and he will not leave that room unless it's for food" Freya says rubbing her temples.
"Why is that bad" Hayley asks?
"If they proceed their heat then all wolves in their sire line will lose their powers and become weak in your case Hayley a vampire until they are done" Freya says.
"We aren't apart of his sire line" Jackson says.
"Hope has Klaus blood in her body and she sired you Hayley. That makes you a part of his pack and his sire line as Hope is. Now on the plus side, these two mating they gain power beyond belief" Freya says.
"Yeah what power is that" Jackson growls.
"They become unstoppable and can not be killed by anything. No witch can harm them because they they will no longer be hybrid and wolf. They will become rulers of every species" Freya says.

Klaus slams Artemis against the wall pinning her arms on either side of her head.
"Love you smell desirable" Klaus growls his eyes flashing between blue and amber.
"Then don't fight it" Artemis hisses and smashes her lips on Klaus's before getting out of his hold and slamming him against the wall.
"Energetic, fiery, passionate and determined. You will do well fit for a queen" Klaus says before using his speed and moving them to the bed.
Artemis holds his head in her hands as they roughly kiss, Klaus feels his hands turn and then his nails turn into claws which dig into her waist. She hisses but does the same which grip his hair, she slides a claw down his shirt ripping it in half and then latches on to his neck drawing blood. Klaus shakes her off and pushes her back down while yanking her blouse open revealing her lace bra.
"No body can touch you except me, you belong to me" Klaus snarls before biting down on her shoulder blade.
She screams before it turns into a soft whimper and grabs at his hair, she raises his head and presses their lips together again tasting her blood on his lips. Using their enhanced speed both are naked and under the sheets in a flash, Elijah storms up the steps to Klaus knocking on the door loudly.
Klaus irritated wraps one sheet around his waist and growls opening the door slightly glaring at Elijah and Hayley who just appeared. Elijah eyes run across his brothers gold eyes, his claws contracted. Hayley looks over Klaus's shoulder to see Artemis lying in bed with blood on the sheets, her eyes red and fangs sticking out over her gums like Klaus's. She taps Elijah on her shoulder and points at Artemis.
