Caroline walked into the Lockwood mansion to find Tyler in a daze, with a bottle of scotch in his hands. Hayley was lying next to him, asleep on the couch.
The sight filled Caroline with sadness, had Tyler really grown that close to the girl?
"Tyler." Caroline called, a bit cautiously, as if approaching a wounded animal.
Tyler stared up at her, "It's just us. Paying our respects to Chris." he said, taking a swig directly from the bottle.
"Tyler, we didn't have a choice." Caroline tried to reason with him.
The hybrid glared at her, "I told him we had his back. I told him if he helped us he'd be free."
"But we needed to help our friend." Reminded him. This wasn't about a hybrid, it was about Elena. She wished that there was another way, but that was the only way to save her childhood friend. She wasn't going to choose a hybrid she just met, over a girl she's known longer since pre-school.
"Yeah," Tyler scoffed, "we helped our friend by handing over another friend."
"Chris wasn't…" Caroline protested, but was cut off by Tyler.
"Chris was a friend, Caroline. He's like me. He's part of my pack. All he wanted to do was be unsired by that disgusting piece of…" As Tyler trailed off, Caroline felt a flash of anger rise up inside of her.
But before she could tug on that thread, Tyler sighed. After a moment, he looks at Caroline. "How did you even get Klaus to agree to give up one of his hybrids?"
Caroline felt dread fill up inside of her. A voice in the back of her head couldn't help but point out that when she was with Klaus, she felt safe, content, happy. Yet with Tyler…
"I agreed to go on a date with him." Caroline answered.
Tyler nods and silently gets up.
"I just thought that it might help keep up the ruse between you and Hayley." Caroline tried to defend herself. But she couldn't help but feel angry. He and everyone else had continued to throw her onto Klaus' path, for their own gain. But now that he'd actually grown to care for her. Made her feel special. It was supposed to be her fault!
Tyler makes a show of pouring himself another drink, and looks up at her with angry eyes. He then throws the glass at her, but Caroline flinches, causing it to miss her head and hit the wall behind her.
The loud noise causes Hayley to wake up and in a daze she tries to assess the situation. "What the hell is going on?"
"Nothing." Tyler answers without looking at her. "Just celebrating the life of a fallen hybrid friend."
Tyler stares at Caroline's sad and fearful face with not a look of remorse or regret for his actions.
The vampire-wolf mix, still angry, grabs another glass full of scotch and chunks it at her head. Caroline, still in shock at what was happening, was frozen in heels and closed her eyes, waiting for the glass to hit.
But it never came. Instead she felt a warmth envelope her back. "Really? This doesn't look like nothing to me." A quiet voice comes from behind Caroline, one that sends pleasant shivers down her back. "Is that how you celebrate a fallen friend? By abusing someone who stands by you?"
Caroline opened her eyes to see Klaus has an arm protectively around her, well his other hand couch the glass of scotch, not a drop spilled.
Klaus had only just arrived and took in the situation. From the angry hybrid, to the broken glass behind Caroline, he didn't like what he saw.
But what he hated the most was the tearful look on his woman's face. How she just stood there. He really needed to convince her to get out of this small town, and he needed to do it soon. It would take decades to undone the damage these people had done to her.
Tyler flinched as he felt Klaus' dark eyes bore into him. Even if Klaus had figured out his plan. He had a feeling that look was more because of what he just did to Caroline, then him breaking the sire bonds.
Which scares him.
Because the death for his first crime would be quick.
But for the second, Klaus would ensure he suffered, slowly, and painfully.
Klaus let's go of Caroline and takes a threatening step towards Tyler, but is stopped by a gentle hand on his arm.
"Klaus, it's fine." The baby vampire tries to plead with him.
Klaus turned to her outraged, but Klaus couldn't figure out if someone had thrown fire or oil onto his fire when he saw the defeated and disappointed look on her face.
It was like she had just accepted that this was how she would be treated. That this was her place.
The very thought outraged Klaus, yet he still forcefully pushed his anger down for now, for her sake at least.
"No, it's not fine." Klaus tells her with a firm voice. "You would never be treated that way. You a Queen… fit for a King..." he says, moving a curl out of her face. Everybody could hear the meaning behind his last sentence.
Tyler growled, his eyes flashing golden, "Don't touch her!"
Klaus' eyes flashed amber as his own wolf rose to the challenge issued by the mutt. He instantly slammed Klaus into the wall by the neck with one hand; his posture completely relaxed well Tyler desperately pawed at his wrist, struggling for air.
Hayley, who had only been watching up until this point, stood up and tried to help Tyler. But the second Klaus' eyes landed on her, she flinched and lowered her neck. Her wolf instantly submitted to the alpha in the room.
Klaus takes a sip, the scotch still in his hands, "You know. You should really keep your mouth shut. But since you clearly can't do that, let me help you." Klaus says, his pupils went into a miosis as he compelled the baby hybrid. "You will stay quiet, and won't speak until spoken to. Also, you will answer any question asked of you truthfully. Understood?"
Tyler, who had stopped taking vervain, was forced to comply.
Klaus then set the now empty glass of scotch on the table and walked right back up to Caroline.
The blond took a step back, but Klaus stopped her by placing a hand on her lower back, well his other hand gently moved her chin so her eyes stared into his own.
As soon as Caroline's eyes locked onto Klaus' blue eyes, Tyler, Hayley, everything faded into the background until it was nothing more than white noise.
"I mean it. You're a queen who should never be treated in such a way ever again. You are strong, brave, and loyal. None of your friends deserve you." Caroline opened her mouth to protest, but Klaus stopped her by placing a finger on her lips, silencing her. "You may not realize this today. But in a year, or maybe in a century, you will. And when that day comes, you'll know that my doors are always open for you."
Caroline paused, her brain automatically processing Klaus words as she struggled to decide if he was telling the truth.
Did her friends drive her loyalty?
She had stood by them no matter what… yet… They had thrown her at Klaus without a care for her well being. Sure it had turned out well, but the night at the bar when they tried to kill Kol. He could have easily killed her.
But one thing was for certain.
Tyler.
He didn't drive anything from her, and she intended to give him nothing more.
Caroline turned to her soon to be ex-boyfriend. "That's it Tyler. I'm done. No more games, no more distractions. If you want to take on Klaus. Fine. You can go on that suicide quest by yourself. You won't have me to fall back on when your plan fails, because we all know it will; and play your shield any longer. Do you understand me. We're over. And I mean it this time."
Klaus watched with a smirk on his face, pleased to see his baby vampire stand up a little bit straighter. This was defiantly a good start at building up her confidence. If nothing else, at least the mutt was good for one thing.
Caroline's eyes widened as she suddenly realized she just blurted out in front of Klaus that the whole break-up between Tyler and her was all fake.
At the look on her face Klaus let out a chuckle. "You knew?" Caroline accused, whirling around to glare at him.
Klaus smirked, happy to see her fire back. At least she wasn't scared of him, as she was with Tyler. And that pleased him quite a bit.
"Oh of course I know. His plan was idiotic and half baked at best. Did they forget I can compel them?" Klaus asked, as he revered in the fearful look that appeared on Tyler's face. "I thought the sire bond would be fun, but I'm not above compelling them. Plus, I have other hybrids of course." He was almost offended at their surprised look. Please, did nobody teach them how to fear them? It appears that between Mikael and Esther, and their arrogance alone, they had grown cocky and forgotten that he has centuries on them. Of course he would have backups. Well it was more like these twelve were the backup.
Klaus smirked, "These ones were just the ones I created as a result of the scraps of Elena's blood I had left over. Or did you all suddenly forget it only took a sip of Elena's blood to turn Tyler. And I left with four pints of her blood."
"Now, how should I punish you?" Klaus asked.
Tyler used this to get around the compulsion. "You took Caroline, isn't that enough?"
Klaus raised an eyebrow. "You and your friends are the ones who kept putting her in my path for your own selfish gains. But unlike you idiots. I'm not blind. I know her worth. And once she chooses to come to me, I don't intend to ever let her go."
Caroline couldn't help but smile. He understood her. He knew exactly how used she felt every time her friends pimped her out.
"Now Tyler, you're immortal. Which means I can draw this out as long as I like. So how about you take a page out of Katherine's book and go on the run. I'll even give you a head start. You're going to need it. Because unlike her, you don't have any of her cunningness or resourcefulness. Nor do you have my older brother protecting you. But who knows, maybe if my Queen is feeling merciful. I'll give you a quick death. But I will give you a month at most. You won't survive any longer than that."
Caroline couldn't help but feel a flutter in her chest at his tone, and a warm feeling growing between her thighs at his tone.
He really was the Alpha Male.
Hayley stepped forward, "Please-"
But before she could even get a word out, Klaus shut her up with a predatory look. Like a wolf ready to pounce. "You. You are the traitor aren't you?"
Hayley stepped back and tried to deny it, but Klaus wasn't having it.
"No. But you aren't anything more. No way you're the real mastermind behind this. Your to dumb." Klaus said, "But of course me and my brother already figured that out. So we tracked him down and Kol will be dealing with Shane-"
"Shane?" Caroline asked. Klaus turned around and nodded at her, of course she could be the only one to interrupt him and get away with him.
The only exception to all of his rules.
Caroline shivered, "He always felt like a creep to me."
"You have good instincts. You should trust them more often." Klaus told her. He then returned to his explanation, not at all minding the fear in Tyler and Hayley's faces as they waited. "And of course, we will be finding a way to ensure Jeremy's tattoo never sees the light of day again."
"You won't kill him will you?" Caroline asked, still having the need to defend the people she knew.
Klaus sighed. "I know you wouldn't like that. So as soon as my brother can help the Bennett witch grow sober again from using expression, the first thing she will do is find a way to remove the tattoo and end the line of the brotherhood of five forever. So the cure will become nothing but a myth." Klaus told her, everything was set in stone. All that was left was to carry it out.
"But don't you need the cure for more hybrids." Hayley tried desperately.
"It's fine. I already have enough hybrids." Klaus shrugged casually. "They all willingly transitioned." Klaus a added for Caroline's sake.
Caroline's glare on his back softened, "So they're all willing?"
"Of course love." Klaus answered. "Not turning every moon is a huge selling point. Once they knew that, they were rushing to make my list."
"As for the doppelganger blood. I honestly don't care at this point. I'm willing to wait till the next one appears." Klaus sighs.
"But Elena's the last one." Caroline argued.
Klaus raised an eyebrow. "Are you forgetting about the Gilbert boy already?" he reminded her. "Plus, even if he doesn't have any children. I have a back up plan. 300 years ago I had another Petrova bloodline secured as soon I found out it was still ongoing. That line continues to this day. In fact, with modern technology I've compelled the women and men to give up some eggs and sperm to be preserved. Just incase of any accidents."
Caroline stared at him amazed. They all really had been underestimating them. Of course the Originals and Klaus had been treating them with kid gloves, her especially. They've been on this earth for 1000 years of course they've learned how to stay 20 steps ahead of everyone else.
After that, that last absolute bahamut of a 'one shot'. I thought something fun and short would be nice for my brain. But this did end up a lot longer than I originally intended it to.
Anyways,
KLAROLINE FOR LIFE BECAUSE I WILL GO DOWN WITH THIS SHIP!
