Hi! I apologize for the time it took for this chapter to be posted. I'm on vacation and I took these last two weeks to go to the beach! To compensate, I wrote this chapter a little bigger, and I've had some ideas for the next. Hope you enjoy!
Sorry for grammar mistakes (I know this chapter has some) ...
Previously …
Caroline heard the doorbell ring. She opened the door and moved away so that Klaus could enter. He already had been in her house, she didn't need to invite him.
'What do I owe the honor of you call me and asking for help?' Klaus asked.
'Henrik is sick. You have to stay with him while I go to the pharmacy'.
'What does he have?' Klaus seemed worried. Really worried.
'I don't know' Caroline caught the suitcase and prepared to leave 'I already called Bonnie. She should be on the way. I thought he could not sicken'. She opened the door 'He's in my room. I'll be quick'.
While Caroline was on her way to the pharmacy, Klaus went to Caroline's room to see how was Henrik. He was lying in the middle of the bed. He seemed so small. He was a hybrid with a thousand years of existence, he did not know take care of children. He did not know how to be a father. Klaus remembered to take care of his younger brother when he was sick, but that had happened long ago. He remembered no longer what he should do, but he knew that he had to lower the temperature.
Klaus went to the bathroom and grabbed some wet towels with water, when he returned to the room, he put a towel on the forehead and one in the belly of Henrik.
After twenty minutes, when Klaus put his hand on the Henrik's forehead, he felt him fresher. He felt that he had done something good. He didn't do good things for a long time.
Klaus felt Caroline opening the door. She ran to the bedroom and without throwing a single look to Klaus, she went to Henrik and gave him the medicine.
'C'mon sweetie' she said while she stroked Henrik head. Klaus was looking, petrified by the scene. 'Now you will feel better!'.
When Henrik felt asleep again, she left the room and Klaus followed her to the living room. At that time, Bonnie opened the front door. Elijah came immediately behind her.
Caroline sat on the couch. She wasn't feeling well, but didn't want to say anything. Bonnie looked at her friend and noticed that something was wrong. 'Care, what's up?'.
'Henrik is sick'.
'Sick? He has never been sick. He cannot get sick'. Bonnie was confusing, how could Henrik being sick?
Caroline didn't know what to answer. Klaus looked at Bonnie and said 'We don't know, you're the witch. You came to this world with him. You are the one that need to know!'. Klaus was face to face with Bonnie.
Elijah deviated his brother. 'Niklaus, what are you doing?'.
'No' Klaus exploded. 'What are you doing? You're always defending her. She has to know what is happening with Henrik!'. He pushed his brother. Elijah hit the wall.
'Brother, what's up with you? Why are you like this?'
'I'm a sociopath. I don't have to be nice', Klaus said.
Elijah gave him a look.
'You're mad. I can feel it'.
'What part of sociopath didn't you understand?' he asked.
'Stop, both of you!' Caroline rose but a dizziness caused her to fall. Before reaching the ground, Klaus picked her up. He held her in his arms, after a few seconds, she began to be aware of where she was and that Klaus had her in his arms.
'Klaus?'
'Hmm?'
'You can put me down now.'
'I'm not ready yet.' He tightens his hold.
'You don't have to hold me'.
'Can you hear me, love?'
'Uh, yes. I can hear fine'.
'That's a relief. Because for a minute there, I thought maybe you didn't hear me when I said I'm not ready yet.'
'Silly' she laughed. What was strange, since she was still angry with him. But for a moment, she forgot that he had lied. It seemed the Klaus that she met and learned to like. They stood looking at each other.
'Oh, no!' Bonnie exclaimed. 'This can't be happening'. Bonnie was frenetic.
Klaus landed Caroline on the couch and look to Bonnie. 'What?'. He shouted.
Bonnie looked seriously to Caroline. 'I already know why Henrik is sick'.
'Why? Now, tell me, witch!'. Klaus continued screaming.
Bonnie looked at Klaus. 'Can you shut up for a minute?!'. Elijah didn't believe that Bonnie had sent his brother to shut up. He had never heard anyone say shut up to Klaus.
'Caroline, did you feel more tired in these last days?' Bonnie asked.
'Yes'.
'And I noticed that you're more emotional, after that incident in the Mystic Grill. If I didn't love you so much I'd probably strangle you.' Bonnie was talking to herself. Nobody in that room realized where she was trying to reach.
'Emotional?' Caroline was completely confuse. What had she to do with Henrik?
Elijah looked at Bonnie. 'Not possible'. He understood the motive of Henrik being sick.
'Pregnant women are like that, you know.' Bonnie went on to say.
'Preg —' The bottom dropped out of Klaus stomach. His head swam. She wasn't seriously ill. 'She's ...'.
'She is pregnant to your son, in this world. He is sick because can't exist two Henrik's in the same world at the same time'. Bonnie explained.
...
'I have to come back with Henrik to our world. He can't stay in this world. There can be two Henrik in the same world'. Bonnie concluded.
'How? Now you're a vampire! You can't go' Elijah intervened.
'In the same way as we came here ... through a spell'.
Caroline bent with pain. 'Bonnie?'.
'You have to get away from Henrik'. Bonnie explained. Klaus went to where Caroline was and took her in his arms. 'Take her to your home. She needs to being away from Henrik. While I don't find the spell to return, you have to take her away'. Bonnie said.
Caroline moaned. Klaus looked at Henrik lying in bed motionless and then to Caroline who was in his arms, with pain. 'Now, Klaus' Bonnie shouted.
'Go, Niklaus. I'm staying with Bonnie and Henrik'. Elijah said to his brother.
Klaus came down the stairs and out of the house with Caroline in his arms. As they went away from her house, Klaus noticed that Caroline's face was no longer so white. 'Are you feeling better, love?'.
She looked at him. 'Yes. You can drop me. I can already walk'. Klaus dropped her and she moved away a bit of him. 'Thank You'.
'You don't have to thank me, love'. He approached. 'I wanted an excuse to touch you again'. He gave her a shy smile.
She was still angry with him, but she could not forget the fact that he be there for her when she needed.
They began to walk away more and more of Caroline house. None of them spoke. They hadn't gone far when Caroline felt something strange cross her.
Klaus turned on himself, looking at the street, as if he was trying to capture an odor.
There was nothing.
Caroline was able to feel an evil presence, but couldn't identify the origin.
Something hissed, just before a wind have danced along the street.
'Caroline.'
Her blood froze upon hearing the sound of her name whispering in the darkness.
'I came to you. You have something that I want'. Laughter echoed, the sound, then disappeared into nothingness.
Terrified, Caroline couldn't breathe.
'Where are you?' asked Klaus.
No one responded.
Klaus involved Caroline in his arms, while wearing his senses, but failed to find traces of who or what had spoken.
'Caroline?'
Klaus turned quick to hear the sound of the voice directly behind him.
It wasn't human. Nor was a vampire. It was a spirit. He opened his mouth as if it were screaming, then evaporated, becoming a frightening fog that involved and passed through, leaving her body like ice.
Klaus felt Caroline shaking, but she hasn't yelled or lost control of herself.
'It's gone?' she asked.
'I think so'.
What was that?' she asked, with a slight touch of hysteria in the voice.
'Not sure'.
Suddenly Caroline's phone rang. She saw in identifying who was, Stefan, so she answered the call.
'Stefan'.
'Caroline, you see what I can do. You just need to give me what I want'.
'Silas'. Caroline realized that wasn't Stefan that was talking 'What do you want from me?'
'You have the cure, inside of you. I need it'. When she was going to answer him, he hung up.
She swallowed hard, while a new wave of panic swept her. Caroline looked at Klaus. 'You heard?'
'Yes' he said, before he grab the phone and call to his hybrids. 'I need you to ensure the safety of my home. Don't want anyone to live amongst. Understand?' he waited the answer short and hung up.
'Now you know why I created an army of hybrids?' Klaus joined her. 'It's better if we go to my home'.
'Yes' she said, feeling the stomach turns around.
…
Caroline felt uncomfortable during the rest of the night. She couldn't move away from the idea that even the air around her was harmful. Silas was out there and was behind her.
Klaus didn't say a word before they reach his house, and had left her in the guest room alone. However she had slept a little and when she woke up alone began to think about all that had happened. Her life had changed drastically in the last three weeks. She still hadn't thought of how her life would change even more, now that she was pregnant. She loved Henrik but she didn't want to be pregnant, in this world.
Suddenly, she heard someone knocking at the door. When she opened the door of the room, she saw Klaus. He walked away as she opened the door. Caroline stopped when noticed that he did not give any sign of enter in the room.
'I came to know if is everything okay with you ... After all what happened today' he said, softly, keeping his hands in his pockets. 'We need to speak about the pregnancy ... '.
'I don't know how can I be pregnant .. '
'I think it was intended ... anyway ... that Henrik existed in this world'.
'I don't know...'.
'I'm sorry, all that is happening. I should have thought of that'. Klaus lowered his eyes 'Sleep well and you will feel better'.
Caroline noted the sincerity in his blue eyes tormented.
'To be honest, I don't want to be alone'.
'Caroline ... If I enter in your room, you know what will happen. I can't control myself when I'm with you ...'
She landed the fingers on his hot lips to stop his protests. 'It's okay. If you don't want to enter ...'
He broke it with a passionate kiss. Caroline moaned while feeling the taste of him, while he landed one of the hands on the back of her head and buried his fingers in her hair.
Involving her with his arms, he led her into the room and leant her against the wall, kissing her madly. She pulled him by the clothes, nearly ripping off his shirt.
'Baby?! ' he said, hoarsely, when she took the hand to his pants to unscrew.
'It doesn't hurt ... don't you dare to stop'.
She should be nervous about it all, however, she wasn't. It was like she needed that intimacy... with the man who for months ago attempted to kill all her friends.
It didn't make sense.
Yet there she was, breaking all the taboos she knew. But her heart would not listen to reason. Against all her sanity, she wanted it.
Caroline kissed him fiercely, trying to forget the fear that she felt. Klaus growled, his eyes were yellow. He was losing control to his Wolf. She looked at his eyes but didn't care, she moved away from his lips long enough to take her own shirt.
He could not think of, as she pressed her body against his. He didn't understand that woman. He thought to be impossible that she had stay with him, that way, after all that had happened. She had forgiven him, after all he did?.
Caroline stopped when she felt something strange in it.
'What's up, Klaus?' she whispered, rising to stare in the eyes.
'I'm just trying to understand why are you with me.'
'I could lie and say that my hormones are crazy. But I asked to you to not lie to me, so I'll not lie. I like you. Against all, I really like you.'.
'Why?'
She bit her lip, seductively before shrug.
'I don't know. Honestly, I don't know. This doesn't mean that I have forgiven you ...But today you were kind.'.
He shook his head.
'I am not kind. I'm cold'.
She buried her hands in his hair, then she licked his lower lip, before kissing him.
Klaus felt the head spinning because of her actions and her words. With her hunger led her hands to the back and opened her bra. Without interrupting the kiss, she lowered her arms to allow this fall to the ground.
Growling from the bottom of the neck, just to undress so soon as possible. She was beautiful.
Klaus held her against the door.
Caroline laughed of his force. Their raw and earthly passion. No, he wasn't cold. He was warm and exciting.
Holding her only with the strength of his arms, he slid deep into her. 'You are mine, Caroline, and I am yours. Until you, my life was desolate. I existed, but I didn't truly live. Now I live, even in my death.'
Caroline moaned in the back of the throat, as he filled her in full. Klaus buried his head in her neck and inhaled her scent as she cast against it. Caroline had a leg around his waist.
She arched her back, making he enter deeper into her, at the same time that followed their movements. She kept one leg on the floor, using it as a lever, while moving the body, up and down against him. He had to use all his inner strength to wait for her, while she removed him the same pleasure she felt.
Klaus saw her biting the lip, while she involved him with the other leg and pressed. He felt the smell of blood and saw that she was pouring blood from the lip. He didn't controlled himself and kissed her, tasting her blood. Klaus growled when she scratched his back with her nails and moaned into his ear. He smiled to see her in his arms and she kissed him again.
This kiss threw him to his release, holding her firmly. With his head spinning, he leaned his forehead against the door, as she slid her legs slowly over his body. He took her and put her on the bed, lying beside her, hugging her gently. He didn't want to lose her. If he could, he would spend the rest of the immortality lost in that perfect moment, embraced one another, the body spent and satisfied.
Closing his eyes, he felt the first sleep undisturbed for a long time. Caroline left herself lying down, quietly, in his arms, listening his breathing.
She still felt uneasy because of everything that had happened. Because of the feeling inside her that gave no rest. Because of Henrik and Stefan. Part of her wanted to call Bonnie to know how was Henrik and also to tell that Silas was alive, but she didn't wanted to disturb, not now that she was trying to figure out the spell to return.
But later, she would have to call and tell everything to Bonnie.
Thinking about Klaus, she should not feel that way, not by a man who did so badly to her friends and to her. Part of her felt as if she was betraying them all and part of herself couldn't resist him.
Closing the eyes, she forced to fall asleep. But her dreams were far from being reassuring. Feeling hungry, she arose, leaving Klaus sleeping.
She took a quick shower and dressed with a shirt and pajama pants from Klaus, she managed to arrange them so that will not fall through her legs. As she came down the stairs, a hybrid appeared in front of her.
'I have orders to not let anyone leave this house'.
Caroline was furious. How Klaus dared to hold her at home. 'I just want to go buy some food'.
'I have orders to perform all your requests, but I can't let you out'. The hybrid said.
'Okay. So I want you to go buy two pizzas, with extra cheese'. When the hybrid was at the door, she screamed. 'Extra cheese, don't forget'.
When dawned, Caroline woke up on the couch with the TV on. Her stomach made a noise, announcing the hunger she was feeling at that moment. When she entered the kitchen, felt the smell of pizzas. Her mouth salivated when she felt the smell that came from the boxes.
When Klaus stepped down the stairs, he seen Caroline sitting on a kitchen chair eating. She was about to open a new box, because the first was already empty. He did not realized how she could eat it. He had given orders that she doesn't leave the house without him, and could guess that she wouldn't be very happy with these orders.
'That pizza must be very tasty' he said.
'Yes'.
'Can you give me a slice?'
'Sit down and shut up'.
Klaus was going to open his mouth but knew this would only annoy her more.
'You are irritated because you didn't slept long enough or because I have given orders to my hybrids to not leave you alone?'.
'I didn't sleep enough and yes, I'm upset'.
Klaus not hearkened. Went into the kitchen, grabbed her and threw her over his shoulder.
'What are you doing? I'm pregnant, your ... your stupid hybrid!'
He sat her in a chair and put his hands on the arms of it, trapping her.
He looked into her eyes. 'Good morning, Caroline. I'm great today. And how are you?'
'Irritated with you.'
'My sincere apologies, Ma'am'. He said, raising a hand to caress her face. 'I woke up with your smell on my skin and I have to say that this made me feel very good and I didn't like if you ruin my mood.'
Caroline melted when she heard the words and see the tender expression on his face. Not to say that the his skin fresh and clean, smell so good and was helping her with the nausea that she was beginning to felt at the end of the first pizza.
'You know even how to be annoying, don't you know?' she asked him. She departed the rage and offered him a smile. 'I'll be nice'. She pulled his head to kiss him.
She was even starting when the phone rang. Cursing for the bad time, she stood up to answer the call.
