Sooooo, thank you to The Original Bitch, I hope you are reading this. I love getting reviews and I love everyone eagerness so thankyou for your kind words! :)

1o. Don't leave me.

Katherine simply couldn't explain what her heart was telling her. Nor could she explain what her head was telling her, but if she could pin point it to one emotion, or one feeling, it would be love.

Katherine loved Elijah, and now there was absolutely no denying it. He knew, obviously they had slept together more than once now and she was still there, in his bed staring at him while he was staring back at her.

The way she had moaned his name when he peppered kisses all over her body was certainly proof of her love for him, he had touched her in ways no man had touched her before, touching her very heart and not just her body.

Katherine knew that there was no turning back, no denying what was clear to her, she knew, that Elijah was the one. Even thinking this sounded crazy to her. Elijah Mikaelson couldn't possibly be the person who awaked Katerina Petrova, and yet it was rather fitting in so many ways, as he was one of the ones who buried her, deep down inside.

Katherine knew that it was truly obvious, his betrayal had hurt so much, what Klaus wanted from her was shocking of course, but the hurtful part was that everything she had with Elijah was fake, he never cared for her.

That is what killed Katerina Petrova, that is what tore her away from everyone thus creating Katherine Pierce, master manipulator and sex goddess. Elijah had done that to her, and now he was atoning for that, by bringing her back into existence, loving her like no man had before.

Katherine would be his, she was his, like putty in his hands. He whispered to her softly, saying her name like only Elijah could, asking her if this was really what she wanted. His whispers gave her shivers, everything about him was so perfect, so much so that Katherine couldn't control her body around him, and that had never happened with any other man.

Katherine continued to stare into his eyes, his beautiful eyes, hating herself and yet loving herself for the situation she had found herself in. Was it possible that after years of running, searching, toying, destroying, she had actually found someone who genuinely made her feel… something.

Katherine smiled softly at him before rolling off the bed and getting dressed, Elijah's eyes following her as she did so. She was happy, content and finally able to see her plans clearly. She, and she truly couldn't believe she was thinking this, but she would let Elena go.

Elijah watched her as she dressed herself, not liking that she was covering up her beautiful features, features which were now his. Elijah didn't like himself for the possessive way he thought of her, but he couldn't help it.

Katherine Pierce was now his, and there was nothing that would change this. Elijah lay back on his bed, looking up at the ceiling, wondering what could possibly go on from here. Not just between him and Katherine, but in terms of his brother.

Niklaus would surely know of Elena by now, and that meant he was on his way, with a wolf and a witch, perhaps even a vampire. And how then, would Elijah kill his brother, he knew that the sacrifice must happen, and he knew that Elena must die.

Elijah frowned and sighed at the same time. Elena. Katherine had her somewhere, and although he and Katherine were intimate with each other, he doubted she would simply spill all her little plans and secrets. No, not Katerina Petrova, she would draw this out not letting him see any of her mischievous and cunning plans.

Elijah would not know, until she wanted him to know. Another thing that attracted him to Katherine. Elijah tried to take his thoughts off the woman who was dressing in his room and back to his brother, and his brothers obvious plan to break his curse.

The thought had never occurred to Elijah that Klaus would already be there, and of course, he was.

Klaus smirked happily as he approached the town, his hands by his side as were his two faithful witches. 'Home sweet home' he murmured before walking into the apartment they had gotten, one that was in Rhetta's name.

He walked inside after she happily invited him in and looked around. 'Boring little joint isn't it sweetheart?' he said smirking at her, raising his eyebrow slightly.

Rhetta smiled back at him and began unpacking and moving stuff around, her grimours were soon to be placed on the table, Maddox came to stand beside her and they both just read through them.

Undeniably, Klaus found this boring and he went to find something better to do, or drink, or both.

Katherine was standing outside the room where she was keeping Elena, she had made it nice, her slightly humane side and the side which had endured the same treatment years ago wanted her to be somewhat comfortable.

She opened the door and frowned as Elena threw something at her. 'Now now Elena, be nice' she chided closing the door behind her and frowning at her unappreciatively.

'You needn't be so nasty, you see, I intend to release you… circumstances have changed slightly you see, things that didn't seem to matter, matter suddenly' Katherine said to her, almost smiling as she looked at her descendant appreciating the manners in which they were alike and yet, so grateful they were different.

Katherine watched as Elena's expression softened, desperately wanting to know what could have changed, worry clear on her face. Elena thought someone was dead, or hurt, someone else who was necessary for the ritual.

'Tyler?' Elena barely managed to say before looking at Katherine, the worry clear in her eyes. Katherine rolled her own eyes, which apart from a certain glimmer, were identical to Elena's. 'Your little wolf friend is fine, all your friends are… consider this more of a change of heart that real circumstances' Katherine said frowning slightly at the word heart before stepping over closer to Elena, staring into her eyes.

'You will leave Mystic Falls, not looking back and you will take Damon and Stefan with you, no matter what they say' she compelled her, handing her necklace back to her as she was finished. Elena looked simply terrified as she took her necklace.

'Katherine he'll kill them, Bonnie, Caroline, Tyler… Jeremy' she squeaked out the last name, her eyes filling with tears as she stared back into Katherine's. But Katherine knew she would be able to protect them, she knew that Elena's family wouldn't get hurt. She simply shook her head and pushed her towards the door, Katherine could stop this. Katherine had to stop this.

So please review as it makes me really happy. I would like to know if this is actually good, or if it's just my imagination... being silly. :)
