I tried to make this one longer, but if I continued writing, there would have too much going on, and I hate a busy chapter because something always gets lost to the reader.

Anyway, THANKS TO ALL WHO SUPPORT THIS STORY! IT WARMS MY HEART TO KNOW YOU ALL AT LEAST LIKE IT!

Please remember to review at the end! :)

Her head throbbed as her eyes opened slowly. She groaned as the light hit her eyes, and caused her head to ache even more. Never had wine had that effect on her, especially after only a few sips.

Caroline opened her eyes slowly, and found herself in a strange room, a quaint, simple room, but still strange, or at least it seemed strange. She looked around, and found the walls were a pale ivory with a large painting on the far left wall with a door next to it. The bed she was lying on was a mix of iron and wood, and appeared to be Queen Size.

A window to her right had the sun appearing through it, and the lace curtains gave the room a simple, elegant touch.

Where was she?

Slowly she stood up, and felt the after effects of the wine from the night before, and memories of what happened flashed in her mind as she staggered slightly.

She staggered to the door, and opened it to find a small hallway, and following the smell of food, she braced herself against the wall as she walked towards what she assumed was the kitchen.

"Kol, put that down!"

"Awe, come on, I'm hungry."

"Don't make me slap you with this!"

"Oh, Bennett, I love it when you threaten."

Caroline stopped at the end of the hallway, and dropped her left hand from her head as she looked at the scene before her. A dark skinned woman, wearing jeans and a tank top, was standing in the kitchen with her arms against a man's chest. The man was tall, with dark brown hair, and a mischievous gleam in his eyes, but the gleam also held an emotion Caroline recognized, faintly.

Kol smirked, and searched Bonnie's eyes as his arms wove around her waist. He maneuvered his right hand, and grabbed a piece of ham from the stove, only to have Bonnie slap him with a spatula on his chest.

"I said, put that down." She stated, watching him feign hurt.

"Are you trying to starve me?" He asked, stepping back a fraction.

Bonnie smirked. "No, but you can't eat yet; she's not up." She stated, pointing the spatula at him.

Kol stuck his tongue out at her, watching her smile.

"Am I interrupting something?" Caroline finally spoke, though her voice sounded groggy.

Kol smiled, and bowed his head. "Finally, she emerges! Now we can eat!" He stated, clapping his hands together.

Bonnie glared at him, but moved towards Caroline. "Good morning, I'm Bonnie, and the irritant behind me is Kol." She replied, smiling.

Caroline smiled as much as she could, and made her way to the small counter in the kitchen with the help of Bonnie. "Where am I?" She asked, as she placed her head in her right hand, after she propped it up.

Kol smirked and exchanged a secret glance at Bonnie. "You are in a small cottage on my family's property. Don't worry, you're safe." He remarked, moving towards the stove.

Bonnie rolled her eyes, and slapped the spatula against his butt before she dropped it in the sink, and stood across from Caroline. "Don't mind him." She replied, watching Kol rub his rump with his right hand, and glared at her.

"You'll pay for that, Bennett." He whispered, leaning over her ear, before moving to grab a stool to sit next to Bonnie.

She rolled her eyes, and focused on Caroline. "What do you remember from last night?" She asked, watching Caroline sigh.

"I remember having dinner with Klaus, and then I guess I had too much wine because I passed out." She recalled, feeling her body surge with a certain memory.

Bonnie nodded. "I see." She murmured, and glanced at Kol. "He did it, didn't he?" She whispered, narrowing her eyes.

Kol smirked. "You know he did." He returned, wiggling his brows, causing Bonnie roll her eyes.

Caroline moved her eyes back and forth, trying to understand what they were talking about, coming up with nothing; she decided to ask, "What the hell are you talking about?"

Bonnie sighed. "He drugged you." She replied in frustration.

Caroline moved her eyes around. "Who did?" She asked, still lost.

Kol rolled his eyes. "Honestly this is the same who is supposed to be the….OW!" He screamed, when Bonnie jabbed her elbow into his ribs.

"Klaus" Bonnie answered, glaring briefly at Kol before looking at Caroline.

Caroline's eyes widened and she sat straighter, forgetting that the world was spinning around her. "He what?!" She asked, her eyes focused on the tiled top of the counter.

Bonnie sighed. "Look, there is a lot to discuss, and Klaus really needs to be the one to explain it all, so how about some breakfast?" She replied, dryly.

Caroline shook her head. "I'm not hungry." She stated, fire flashing in her eyes.

Bonnie sighed. "You really need to eat something, Caroline." She remarked, softly.

Caroline lifted her gaze, and stared at her. "How do you…?" She began, watching Bonnie smile.

"Klaus told me." Bonnie stated, turning to the stove, and quickly fixed a plate of food. "Here, you need to get your strength, especially if you are going to do what I think you're going to do." She stated, handing Caroline the plate.

Caroline glared at the plate, but gave in to the gesture.

Kol smirked. "Great, now I can eat!" He stated, hopping from the stool.

Bonnie turned and placed her hand on his chest. "Nope, you need to go get him." She stated, firmly.

Kol pouted, and glanced at Caroline. "But you said I could get something to eat when she woke up." He stated, sticking his bottom lip out.

Bonnie held back a laugh, and shook her head. "Now, you need to get him, and then I'll give you food." She remarked, watching him roll his eyes.

"Am I my brother's keeper?" He asked, lowly.

Bonnie snickered, and bit her bottom lip. "No, you are just the messenger boy." She returned, watching a dangerous gleam come into his eyes.

"Oh, you are going to pay for that, Bennett." He whispered, leaning down to kiss her.

Bonnie placed her hand on his lips, and smirked at the disappointment flashing across his face. "Later, brown eyes." She whispered, smiling at the softened gaze in his eyes.

Kol smiled, and grasped her hand, giving it a quick kiss in the palm, while his free hand grabbed a piece of ham, and then he dashed out of the kitchen, leaving Bonnie shaking her head at his antics.

Caroline ate as much as she could; her anger beginning to simmer. She could feel the after effects of the drug being broken down, and her thoughts were becoming clearer.

"He kidnapped me, didn't he?" She asked, pushing the plate away from her.

Bonnie smiled. "Well, you could look at it that way." She replied, taking the plate from Caroline, and began to wash it.

Caroline groaned. "I should have known he was a sociopath." She stated, throwing her head back.

Bonnie smiled, and shook her head, as she rinsed the plate. "I wouldn't judge him quite so harshly." She remarked, turning back to Caroline while wringing her hands on a towel.

Caroline scoffed. "Can I leave?" She asked, stiffly.

Bonnie sighed. "Unfortunately, no, you can't." She remarked, watching Caroline close her eyes.

"Why the hell did he drug me last night?!" She shouted after a moment, standing up.

"Because I had to protect you."

Caroline whirled around, and realized the mistake she made when her head began to spin lightly. She closed her eyes, and gripped the counter edge, as Klaus entered the kitchen followed by Kol.

Klaus reached for her, only to get pushed back by Caroline.

"Don't you dare touch me!" She shouted, backing away.

Klaus sighed. "Caroline…" He began, watching her shake her head.

"Don't you even start!" She shouted, moving away from him.

He rolled his eyes. "Caroline, if you let me explain…" He started, only to have her push past him.

"The only thing I want is to get away from you!" She shouted, staggering slightly towards the front door.

As the door slammed after her, Klaus sighed.

"Well, you screwed that up, Nik." Kol remarked, holding back a grin.

"Shut up, Kol." Klaus muttered, as he started after Caroline.

As the door closed after him, Kol turned to Bonnie. "Now, can I eat?" He asked, watching Bonnie sigh.

"You and your stomach." She whispered, fixing a plate for him.

Kol grasped the plate, and bent his head to give her a quick kiss on the lips. "You love me anyway." He whispered, huskily.

Bonnie blushed, and shook her head, as Kol walked to the counter. "Unfortunately." She whispered, though the smile never left her lips.

~XXX~

Caroline huffed, as she turned in circles around the woods surrounding the cottage. There must be a way out of there.

"Caroline!"

She shook her head. No, she had to get away from him. How could she have trusted him? How could she? How could he do this to her? From the very moment he spoke to her, he lied. What was wrong with her? She should've seen right through his lies, but no. She had to be taken in by his accent and blue eyes, and dimpled cheeks.

God, she was an idiot!

"Caroline!"

She rolled her eyes. No, she wasn't going to give in. She gave in before, and look where that got her. Kidnapped by a Prince!

"Caroline, come back. I'll explain everything!"

She rolled her eyes once more, and shook her head. No, she wasn't going back.

"Caroline, please!"

She paused beside a tree when she heard him a few feet behind her. Straightening her back, she whirled around to face him. Her features set in anger, and her blue-green eyes flashed fire.

"I don't give a damn what you have to say, Klaus!" She stated, crossing her arms.

Klaus sighed. "Will you please listen to me?" He asked, throwing his arms outward.

She shook her head, and turned away from him, but didn't move away.

"I know I should have done this differently, but there was no time, and I had to protect you." He explained, watching her turned her head, but not enough to look over her shoulder.

Caroline bit her bottom lip, and closed her eyes. "Protect me from what?" She asked in a whisper.

Klaus smiled. At least she was talking to him. "There is someone out there who is after my kingdom, and he will stop at nothing to get to my weakness, you." He replied, stepping closer to her.

She rolled her eyes. "Klaus, I just met you. How in hell could I be your weakness?" She asked, figuring it out quickly.

He smiled. "Surely, you must know, Caroline. You felt it." He whispered, stepping closer to her.

She closed her eyes. "What I feel is no longer fondness, Klaus." She stated, lying a little bit.

Klaus shook his head. "Look, Caroline, I'm sorry. I'm sorry I drugged you." He stated, throwing his arms outward.

She scoffed, and shook her head. "You kidnapped me." She stated, stopping him from saying another word.

He frowned. "If I had asked, would you have come with me?" He asked, firmly.

She sighed, but didn't say a word.

Klaus nodded in confirmation. "So I did the right thing." He stated, finally getting her to turn around with fire flashing in her eyes.

"You son of a bitch!" She shouted, stepping towards him. "You call, drugging me and kidnapping me, the right thing!" She continued, pointing her finger at him. "The right thing would be to have just said, 'Hey, I don't want to see you anymore'!" She shouted throwing her arms outwards.

"I do want to see you, Caroline! Damn it!" He shouted, angrily.

She clenched her jaw, and turned her head. She avoided his gaze, and instead focused on an oak tree a few feet away. The tree seemed to look familiar, and yet she never…

"I want to continue what we have, but I couldn't when everything I care for is being threatened." He stated, calming down a fraction.

Caroline swallowed, but kept her focus on the tree. "I just met you, Klaus." She whispered, shaking her head.

He smiled. "All it takes is a day, Caroline. Haven't you realized that, yet?" He asked, stepping closer to her.

She inhaled deeply, and closed her eyes.

She stopped at an oak tree, and placed her hand on the bark, and tried to catch her breathe. She looked up at the sky, and knew she had been running for a few hours. Klaus had probably made it back to camp, by now, and found her note.

Tears fell down her face at the thought of the look of horror on his face or pain. She hated giving him heartache, but she found no other choice.

She leaned her head back, and took a deep breath as she looked at the sky, and felt the wind blow in her face.

She covered her face with her hands, and felt her heart break. She was gone for only a few hours, and she still felt the emptiness of being without him. How did he become such an important part in her life?

She lifted her head, when she heard hoofs galloping in her direction. She began to feel her heart pound in her chest at the thought of it being Tyler's men.

She took another deep breathe, as she stepped away from the tree to face the unknown visitor.

She had closed her eyes, when the rider approached, she heard the horse stop, and slowly she opened her eyes.

Her eyes widened as she gazed upon the rider.

Klaus glared at her, as he jumped off his horse. The fury he felt when he read her note disappeared when he saw her tears falling down her face.

He let the horse graze as he approached her with just a spark of anger in the depths.

Caroline covered her mouth, and turned away from him, hoping to run, but found she couldn't move. She couldn't run from him, not now.

She heard him approaching him, and felt tears fall down her face. She began shaking as he came closer.

"Leaving without so much as a goodbye?" Klaus asked, stopping only a few feet away from her.

She shook out of her trance, and realized he had spoken to her. She turned her head, and moved to walk past him.

"Aren't you going to answer me, Caroline?" He asked, turning to follow her.

She stopped, and felt a wave of something hit her, but she couldn't understand what. "Answer what?" She asked, keeping her back to him.

He sighed, and approached her carefully. "Haven't you realized it, Caroline?" He asked, softly.

She lifted her head slightly, and turned to face him. "What I've realized," She began, mockingly. "Is whatever we had, disappeared the moment you kidnapped me." She concluded, turning on her heel, and headed off in the direction of the cottage, leaving Klaus standing in the forest, alone.

"You are a beautiful woman, Caroline, and I fancy you." He whispered, lifting his head to place his lips on her forehead.

Caroline sighed. "I fancy you too, Klaus." She whispered, kissing his cheek softly.

He gazed into her eyes. "Do you still think this is wrong?" He asked, with a light in his eyes.

Caroline smiled. "If it is, I don't want to be right." She answered, pulling him closer to her.

Klaus sighed as he gathered her in his arms. At that moment, he didn't care that he had a vendetta against the Lockwood Prince; he didn't care that this woman in his arms was promised to another man; he didn't care that Lockwood could find them at any time. All he cared about was keeping this beautiful woman safe, and he would make sure no one would tear her away from him. No one.

Klaus sighed, and shook his head. If only she would remember. If only.

~Later That Afternoon~

Caroline stood at the window, and folded her arms over her chest. She had thought if she slipped out the cottage at night when everyone was asleep that she would make it back to civilization, but that plan went mute when she overheard Kol discussing with Klaus how deep in the woods they actually were.

She couldn't believe this. Two weeks. Two weeks in England, and she found herself kidnapped by the Prince of England. Her mother would be outraged.

Oh, God, her mother! This would kill her.

She bowed her head, and closed her eyes. She sighed, when she heard someone knock on her door.

"Come in." She called out, finally turning around. She felt relief wash over her when she saw Bonnie enter with an armful of books. "Do you need a hand?" She asked when Bonnie moved towards the bed.

Bonnie smiled, and shook her head. "No, I'm fine." She remarked, placing the books on the bed. "Klaus sent these for you." She replied, straightening up.

Caroline frowned, but still picked up one of the books. "I thought he would forget." She whispered, fingering the binding.

Bonnie smiled. "I think you'll find that there are few things that Klaus will forget." She remarked, glancing at the books.

Caroline opened up the book, and sighed. "There was no love more powerful than that of The Rogue King and Swan Queen." She read aloud.

Bonnie smiled, and dipped her head. "I'll leave you to it, then." She replied, moving towards the door.

"Why are you helping him?"

Bonnie paused at the door, and turned to find Caroline looking at her with quiet questions. "Because I believe what he's doing is right or at least his intentions." She answered, rolling her eyes.

Caroline smiled. "You don't have an accent like the others." She remarked, sitting on the bed, still holding the book.

Bonnie smiled. "No, I lived in the United States until two years ago." She answered, nodding her head.

"Why did you move here?" Caroline asked.

Bonnie smiled once more. "Because I fell in love." She stated, simply, not wanting to get into specific details.

Caroline sighed. "I thought I was falling." She whispered, feeling the anger from before.

Bonnie sighed, and approached her. "Just because someone does something horrible, does that mean you stop caring for them?" She asked, sitting next to the blonde on the bed.

Caroline closed her eyes. "How could I forgive him?" She asked, shaking her head.

Bonnie smiled. "I suggest you take it one day at a time." She answered, grasping Caroline's hand.

Caroline sighed. "Can I ask you something?" She whispered, standing up.

Bonnie smiled, and nodded. "Shoot." She remarked, clasping her hands together.

Caroline opened her mouth, but closed it. "Do you believe in past memories?" She asked, quietly. "I mean, it's like I've been here before, and yet I know I haven't." She continued, holding the book to her chest.

Bonnie stood up, and walked over to her. She opened her mouth to speak, but Caroline shook her head.

"No, don't answer. You probably think I'm crazy." Caroline stated, walking towards the window.

Bonnie smiled to herself, and nodded. "I don't think you're crazy, Caroline." She whispered, walking towards the door. "I'll be back later." She replied, opening the door. "I hope you enjoy the books." She added, stepping through the door with a mischievous gleam in her eyes as she closed the door.

Caroline stood at the window for a few minutes longer before a smile appeared on her face. For a fleeting moment, she was happy. Happy that someone didn't think she was crazy.

Turning to the bed, she sat up against the iron headboard, and opened up the book in her hands.

She was a regal beauty, but not at first. Legend goes she was a woman born ugly, or plain as some say, but as she grew her beauty shown through.

She spent her days running through the woods with no shoes to cover her feet. Many reports say that she coveted the freedom spent outside.

As she came of age, her father had promised her to a man, a prince, named Tyler Lockwood. A man, many said was cruel and vicious. A man who she despised.

Caroline sighed, as she lifted her eyes. This sounded so familiar, and yet so distant. Closing the book, she put it aside, and let her eyes drift close, dreaming of a time like that which she had just read.

~XXX~

Klaus stared into the fire in the fireplace as he sat in a leather chair in the living room, his mind playing over the events of today. Sure, he knew that she would be pissed. He would be a fool not to, but for her to turn her back on him.

That he had not thought of.

What was he supposed to do now? He wanted to go to her room, but Bonnie told him that he needed to give her time to adjust. After all, he did kidnap her.

He lifted his right hand to his chin, and placed his elbow on the arm of the chair. He only had two months. Two months to get Caroline to remember and fall in love.

Okay, maybe falling in love was too drastic, but he needed her. He needed her by his side.

So, how was he going to prove to her that she needed him as much as he needed her?

By helping her remember, that's how. Truth was, could he get her to? Well, he had to try. He had to.

Remember to review, but be kind!

To those who didn't catch on, Klaus does have the visions, the same as Caroline, and there is a reason for that! The books are going to be a key to unlocking Caroline's past, so I wonder how long she will have until she realizes the truth?

also, I hope I displayed her spirit at least halfway right. I didn't want her to be accepting of the drugging, and I wanted her to at least be angry with him.

To those who got confused with the Jean thing: Jean was introduced in the first story, and if you remember, Galen always called her Bonnie Jean. The Bonnie with Kol is Bonnie Bennett! I hope that clarifies the confusion. I'm sorry if I wasn't clear about that.

Next Chapter will be up in a few days!

Until Next Time...
