I can't believe you actually met her!"

"What was she like?"

"I mean guys I only met her, we talked an hour or two tops, its not like I actually knew her" Antonia countered shaking her head embarrassed she had even said anything.

"I just think that's so crazy, I wonder what famous people I will have met in a few years" Jessica marveled out loud.

"I guess I mean when I knew her she wasn't popular, it's not like I knew I was meeting someone important, I just thought she was kind, the nicest face in a long time"

"What's going on here" Klaus asked coming his presence known in the kitchen. The floor boards creaked under his weight. The hybrids wished the blue walls would swallow them up as their insecurity and panic over took them.

Antonia sliding down off the counter pulling the slice of pizza from her mouth and bound over to her mate.

"Hi! We're just eating some pizza; would you like some?" Klaus had a brief smile cross his face as she kissed him on his cheek.

He was stunned to say the least, he was not expecting his entire hybrid army that should have been working would be seated around enjoying his mate's company. He wanted to be enjoying his mate's company. His inner wolves nose picked up on her scent as if he hadn't ever smelled her before. Throughout his chest Klaus felt warmth something he hadn't really felt before.

"Hello Klaus" Jessica spoke up beating Klaus to it. Klaus greeted back twisting Antonia to rest against his chest with her legs wrapping his arms around her.

Antonia had taken to the Hybrid pack as her need for a pack for security as a fish to water. "You all actually made pizza? From scratch?" They would admit the pizza looked high end, looking nearly stone baked with its whole ingredients.

"We did indeed"

Skepticism was in his eyes as he took the piece of pizza. Chomping down Klaus' eyes nearly popped out of his head, "Woah that's a lot better than I thought it would be, it's really good!" Clearly, he was not thinking that it would be good if made by his hybrids.

"You didn't think it was gonna be good?" Antonia dramatically played hurt.

"I know right?! I did most of it" Greg chimed in!

"Greg I might just take you off surveillance and put you on kitchen duty!" Greg laughed throwing his head back. The mood lightened so much in that split second everyone feeling at ease breaking the invisible evil master/hybrid barrier.

It felt like a blink of an eye and they the group soon found themselves spending the rest of the night together playing cards getting to know each other in the living room.

"I do believe that is 10th win!"

"I don't understand how you can be at all board and card games, Antonia!" A hybrid named Cameron exasperated as he threw down his cards.

"I know I'm know I'm the winner!" Antonia wiggled on the couch in a victory dance.

"You've got to teach me your ways! I couldn't read your face at all!" Another hybrid threw out as he started picking up the cards. The sun was setting and the golden rays coming through the blinds was becoming not enough to the light living room.

Antonia yawned, "I think its best we head home Antonia" Klaus nudged his mate pushed her up by her hips. Her hair swung back into Klaus' face gently wafting

"Oh, come on! It's not even that late!" Antonia protested pouting slightly putting her bottom lip. The group started to clean up, the games were being piled as Klaus shuffled out the door with a waving goodbye mate.

Once settled right in Klaus' arm in the backseat of the car she looked up at him. His curls were loose and him a softer look. The setting sun cast a very golden hue picking up the flecks of gold in his vampire eyes. Antonia felt as if she could get lost in them, something in her stirred her chest leapt towards him. Something felt as if her heart and her desire was being called by him.

"You need to rest it's only been a few days from you first shifted, Abby told you to be keeping it lowkey, love" Klaus said before looking down finding himself on the receiving end of her curios look.

Cocking his head, it was unclear what she was thinking but he saw her glazed over look, "You alright love? Did you have too much red wine?" He chuckled she looked flushed, her pale cheeks now held a pink glow. Klaus couldn't help but picture what she would look like sprawled out in the meadows in the summer sun, a perfect vision to paint he thought.

The cold leather beneath her was a swoosh sound as she pushed away her back against the side door her hands draped to his neckless. "Do you know how good you look?" Her voice was like a whisper as if he she was almost talking to herself.

The driver in the front's eyebrow shot up at that, the usual demure girl in the back suddenly finding her ability to verbalize what the voice inside her head was saying but he kept his eyes on the road. "Is that so?" A hand crept up her leg coming to rub on her hip bone.

"I can't believe I said that but I can because I don't know why I'm holding it in" Antonia admitted slighting forward to hold her lips daringly close to his.

The moments passed by like hours until their lips collided. Hands slid against fabrics and lips between teeth and soon enough the car stopped at the mansion. The car pulled into park snapped Klaus out of the intense make out session that just occurred. He wasn't one to want an audience, to share when he didn't want to and he wanted her inside all to himself in this instance.

Klaus popped the door open letting Antonia out from underneath him as he guided her into the house. Antonia wanted to say she had no idea where her boldness had come form but she knew exactly where it came from. The pack had made her feel welcome, she had let her guard down and made her feel confident in her role, her status and who she was outside of being Klaus' mate but being authentically herself. That made her even more confident in her mate and their bond. Abby had mentioned that she would want to be more intimate with Klaus as her body adjusted to all the hormones surging around in it.

She could literally jump his bones right now Antonia thought as she toed off her shoes watching Klaus.

Before Antonia was able to jump his bones, her phone rang.

That ringtone.

That ringtone was specifically for Katherine.

Katherine never called she always texted.

Antonia's eyes went wide and she answered, "Hello?"

"What is wrong with you?" Katherine nearly screams on the other end.

"Wh-"

"You said you were coming home, I ask why and you just don't reply for four hours? What happened? Are you alright?" firing off her questions so quickly Antonia couldn't get a word in.

Klaus rolled his eyes as the sound of the original bitch's voice on the other end. Hoping to get Antonia off the phone and back to paying attention to him Klaus pulled his mate's hips against his, her ass pushed right against his need.

Antonia flushed deeply reminded of her own desire and boldness not mere seconds ago, she felt dirty, maybe even a good kind of dirty, on the phone with Katherine with Klaus holding her tight.

The floor sparkled being freshly mopped as the sparks in Antonia's eyes flitted back to Klaus who dipped his head to pull her earlobe between his teeth.

"Have you listened to a word I said?"

"Huh?" Antonia breathed out under Klaus' administrations. His hands curved over her hip bones causing her to arch back into him distracting her even more as she shivered.

"I'm saying I'm worried about you and all I can hearing the background is muffled panting, what- oh my god, are you having hot Hybrid sex right now?"

"Katherine!" the small girl scolded gripping the phone tighter.

"Oh my god, just tell me what I want to know so I can get off the phone with you, my ears are bleeding"

"Oh please, as if I haven't heard worse from you over the decades!" Antonia said embarrassed.

"Well when are you coming home?"

"Tomorrow"
