I meant to have this up sooner, but the internet was being crappy. Anyway, I hope you enjoy this chapter!
THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR SUPPORT FOR THIS STORY! IT MEANS A LOT!
LEMON IN THIS CHAPTER!
Please remember to review at the end! :)
Caroline grunted, as she tried to jerk her arm free from the grip of the woman she remembered from long ago as a friend.
"Jean, why are you doing this?" She asked, trying to wrench free.
Jean scoffed. "I don't know how you know my name, but to make a very long story short," She paused, and pushed Caroline to the ground, as she pulled out her revolver from behind her back. "Klaus betrayed me, and ruined my life, so I'm here to repay the debt."
Caroline's eyes widened as she watched Jean cock the gun. "What could he have possibly done to make you hate him? You used to love him like a brother." She stated, realizing after the words left her mouth that Jean didn't know.
Jean scoffed. "How can anyone love a man who takes a child from her mother's arms?" She stated, yanking Caroline up. "I'm doing you a favor, Blondie." She stated, dragging Caroline through the woods. "I'm saving you from him."
Caroline shook her head, and turned her head back the way they had come. Niklaus, find me, please.
Jean pushed her through the woods, and stopped when she heard footsteps in front of her. "Damn." She whispered, turning her head. Jerking Caroline to the side, she pushed her into a small thicket of bushes. "Don't you move." She stated, crawling in behind her.
Caroline pulled her hand up, and winced as she saw three long gashes on her hand, leading up her arm. Blood gushed out of her wounds, and she knew she needed to get it to stop. Hiding her arm against her blue tank, she glanced at Jean, and knew she had to find a way to leave.
She moved her eyes around the area, and sighed. Niklaus…
She lifted her eyes when she saw a man appearing out of the woods, close to where they were sitting. She heard Jean curse under her breathe, and she smiled.
"Galen!" Caroline hollered, only to have Jean jab the gun underneath her chin.
"Shut the hell up!" She whispered, harshly.
It was too late. He heard.
Jean groaned, and closed her eyes. "Fuck!" She whispered, when Galen stopped in front of them.
"I know you're in there, Jean." He stated, cocking his gun.
Jean rolled her eyes, and stood up from the thicket, dragging Caroline with her. Placing her gun underneath the blonde's chin, Jean glared at her lover. "What are you doing here, Galen?" She stated, jerking Caroline's body in front of hers.
Vaughn sighed, and lifted his glock in front of his body, aimed at Jean. "Let her go, Jean." He stated, firmly, pain in his eyes.
Jean swallowed hard, but tightened her grip. "I don't think so." She stated, causing Caroline to gasp.
Vaughn stiffened his stance, and glanced at Caroline. "Are you okay, highness?" He asked, watching Caroline's eyes widen for a moment before she smiled.
"Considering." She replied, wincing as Jean's hand squeezed her wounds.
"She's not a highness, Galen." Jean shouted, glaring at him. "I don't want to hurt you, but I will." She stated, moving the gun to face him.
Caroline closed her eyes. Creasing her brow, Caroline did the only thing she could think of doing. Raising her right arm, she jabbed her elbow right in Jean's face, causing Jean to jerk her head back.
Jean grunted, and loosened her hold, and Caroline took her chance. Moving away from her, she ran towards Vaughn, and stood behind him.
Jean shook her head, and touched her nose. "Bitch!" She shouted, lifting her gun once more.
Caroline lifted her eyes to behind Jean, and her face turned to sympathy. "I'm sorry."
Jean frowned, and turned her head. She didn't see the blow heading towards her, until too late, and she collapsed on the ground, unconscious.
Caroline glanced at Jean's body, and then lifted her eyes to see a face she never thought she would see again. "Stefan"
Stefan smiled, and lowered the glock to the shoulder harness, and slid it inside the holster, before Caroline's body collided with his.
"I should get greetings like this more often." He replied, with a small laugh, holding her in a tight hug.
Caroline pulled back, and smiled up at him. "What are you doing here?" She asked, glancing behind him to see a blonde she remembered from her memories. "Rebekah." She whispered, nodding her head.
Rebekah smiled, and returned the nod. "You remember." She replied, glancing down at Jean's body, which Vaughn was now bending over.
Caroline nodded, slowly. "I don't remember everything, but I do remember most of it." She replied, smiling shyly.
Stefan nodded, and smiled. "That's wonderful, Care." He replied, bowing his head.
Caroline nodded, but stilled her head, as her eyes widened. "Nik…" She whispered, moving past Stefan and started to run towards the cottage.
Rebekah smiled as she moved to Stefan's side, holding her pistol in her hands. "She hasn't changed much, has she?" She asked, as Vaughn lifted Jean into his arms.
Stefan smiled. "She's gotten stronger." He replied turning and wrapping his arm around Rebekah's waist. "I'm sorry, Vaughn." He added, as they walked back towards the cottage.
Vaughn frowned. "She'll come around." He replied, stiffly.
Stefan nodded. "I hope so." He stated, as they continued their walk.
~XXX~
Caroline panted as she made it back to the cottage she had been taken from just that same morning. She couldn't believe that just yesterday she wanted to get away, and now…
Now she didn't want to leave. All because she remembered.
"Nik!" She shouted, as she burst through the front door.
Bonnie smiled, as she stopped in the center of the living room. "You made it." She replied, softly.
Caroline smiled and embraced her friend. "It's good to see you too, Bonnie." She whispered, pulling back. "Where is he?" She asked, her eyes searching the room.
"In his room, and he is not happy." Bonnie answered, motioning to the back, watching Caroline head off that way before she could finish. "She remembers."
Caroline paused outside the door for only a moment, before opening it up. She smiled brightly as she saw him lying on the bed, and watched as he opened his eyes slowly.
"Caroline…" He whispered, slowly sitting up, the drug still affecting his body.
Caroline smiled, and rushed towards him. "Niklaus." She whispered, launching herself into his arms.
Klaus smiled as he held her gently, though he had nearly fallen backward from the impact. "My Swan." He whispered, stroking her hair.
She smiled, and pulled back to look at him. "My Rogue." She whispered, stroking his face. She pulled completely back, and her eyes flashed for a moment as she slapped the back of his head. "How dare you?!" She shouted, roughly.
Klaus flinched, and refused to rub his head. "How dare I what?" He asked, watching her frown angrily.
"How dare you kidnap me again!" She shouted, glaring at him. "And then how dare you even let me get taken away from you, again!" She added, slapping the back of his head once more.
"Caroline, love, you're beautiful, but if you don't stop…" He trailed off when she slapped his head once more.
"You'll what?!" She demanded, firmly.
He smirked, devilishly, and flipped her over on the bed, with her lying flat on her back with him just above her. "I'm sorry. I kidnapped you again, Swan." He whispered, watching her melt slightly. "And I'm sorrier that I couldn't protect you from being taken again." He added, searching her eyes. "By the way, how did you get away from her?" He asked, remembering a woman's voice before he blacked out.
Caroline sighed, and touched his chest. "Galen, Stefan, and Rebekah." She answered, softly. "Jean was the one who took me." She added, watching and feeling him stiffen. "What did you do to her?" She asked, softly.
Klaus sighed, and turned his head. "I protected her child from her, but she took it the wrong way, and now she blames me." He whispered, turning his head back to her.
Caroline nodded in understanding. "Did you explain it to her?" She asked, softly.
Klaus shook his head. "I tried, but she wouldn't let me." He answered, stiffly.
Caroline sighed. "Well, maybe you should try a little harder." She remarked, stroking his chest with her hands.
"Like I did with you." He remarked, smiling.
Caroline rolled her eyes, and shook her head. "You're horrible."
Klaus smirked, and touched her face. "Caroline, love, what do you remember?" He asked, after a moment, and completely changing the subject.
Caroline smiled, and lifted her eyes to his. "I remember you." She replied, honestly. "I remember our life, and our love." She whispered, tears burning her eyes.
"Do you still?" He asked, with small hope.
Caroline sighed. "I still love you. I can't explain it, but I've never stopped. Even when I first saw you in the palace, I loved you." She replied, searching his eyes.
He smiled, and touched her face. "I feel the same way, love." He whispered, softly.
She bit her bottom lip, and smiled. "This is still new for me, Klaus." She said, softly.
He nodded slowly. "I know, Swan."
She sighed. "I mean, it's not like I don't love you. I mean, I do. It's just…" She trailed off, trying to find the right words, as she played with his shirt.
He studied her face, and slowly nodded. "You wish to go slow." He concluded, searching her eyes.
She nodded. "But not too slow." She stated, a smile brightening her face. "I mean, we did spend eight hundred years apart." She added, wiggling her brows.
He chuckled, and shook his head. "We did, love." He remarked, nodding his head.
She stroked his face, and smiled faintly. "We don't have to make love. I just want to be with you." She whispered, tenderly.
He swallowed. "So do I, love." He remarked, though emotion leaked through his words. He knew that it would take time to get back to the way it was eight hundred years ago, and it was true. This was new to them, even though they remembered each other; they were still strangers to a degree.
She smiled and pulled his head down, and locked her lips with his. Memories began to fill her mind, and as her lips moved over his, she felt complete for the first time in a long time.
When he lifted his lips from hers, she glared at her playfully. "Don't think that this means I've forgiven you for kidnapping me again." She stated, playfully.
Klaus smirked, and licked his lips. "Perish the thought, Swan." He remarked, lightly.
She smiled. "You'll have to work for it, Rogue." She stated, wiggling her brows.
He pursed his lips, and nodded. "I do love a challenge." He whispered, leaning down.
And just before their lips met once again, she laughed. Oh, she had missed him.
~XXX~
Bonnie entered the small bedroom at the end of the house. She smiled as she saw Kol lying asleep on the bed. She moved towards the bed, and sat down next to him.
"I can feel your eyes, lass." He growled, with a smile playing on his lips.
She rolled her eyes, and shook her head as his eyes opened. "I just came to see if you were alright, considering you were drugged a few hours ago." She remarked, stiffly.
Kol smirked, and caressed her face with his left hand. "I'm better now." He whispered, sitting up to look into her eyes. "This brings back memories." He added in another whisper, rubbing his thumb over her lips, causing her mouth to open slightly. "Remember?" He asked, huskily.
Bonnie moaned, and shivered involuntarily. "Kol…" She whispered, longingly.
He smiled, and leaned forward. "Gypsy…" He whispered, before claiming her lips.
She felt her body being pulled against his, and she couldn't stop the shiver of her body. Wrapping her arms around his neck, she opened her mouth, and plunged her tongue inside. This time he moaned, and pulled her on the bed, shifting them so he was lying near on top of her.
"I remember…" He paused, kissing her lightly. "The first time we kissed." He kissed her again. "You had been a virgin." He added, kissing her soundly.
Bonnie moaned, and smiled. "You had been shot with poison arrows." She whispered, kissing him softly.
He smiled against her lips. "If I die today, I would die a happy man with you in my arms."
She sighed. "You said that last time." She whispered, tilting her head to the side.
He smiled and chuckled. "It bears repeating." He whispered, kissing her cheek.
She giggled, and held him tighter. "Oh, brown eyes." She began, as his lips traveled down her neck.
"Yes, my love." He whispered, absently, not paying much attention.
Bonnie smiled, and shivered when she felt his erection sticking against her thigh. "She remembers."
Kol paused, and lifted his head. "And Nik?" He asked, hopeful.
She smiled. "She went to him."
Kol smiled brightly. "Thank God!" He exclaimed, kissing her with a passion that was barely contained.
She giggled. "Kol, we can't." She replied, glancing towards the door, as his hand went underneath her shirt.
"Give me one good reason." He murmured, kissing her shoulder.
"I'll give you two." She remarked, motioning towards the door with her head, and Kol groaned as he lifted his head.
Standing in the open doorway was Klaus and Caroline.
Kol frowned, and sat up, pulling Bonnie up with him. "You better have a good reason for this." Kol remarked, harshly.
Klaus smiled, and nodded. "We're going to fix a celebratory dinner." He stated, wrapping his arm around Caroline's waist.
Kol closed his eyes. "That's not good enough." He remarked with irritation.
Bonnie shook her head, and tried to keep from smiling. "Hush you!" She stated, slapping his arm. "We'll be there in a little bit." She remarked, exchanging a knowing glance towards Caroline.
Kol shook his head at his brother, who smirked devilishly, before he and Caroline left them alone. He bowed his head, and groaned. "I'll kill him." He stated, roughly.
Bonnie chuckled and shook her head. "It'll be alright, brown eyes." She remarked, climbing off the bed, and headed towards the door.
"Like hell it will." He stated, getting up, and following her. Grasping her with his left arm, he closed the door, and wrapped his right arm around her chest, as his left hand held her arms across her chest where she couldn't move.
"Kol…"
He shook his head, and bowed it towards her ear. "Do you feel my desire, Bonnie?" He whispered, hearing her gasp.
"Kol, we have to go." She whispered, trying to break free.
He smiled devilishly, and shook his head. "Not yet, gypsy." He whispered, snaking his right hand down her waist and into the waistband of her leggings.
She gasped, and tried to jerk out of reach of his moving hand, but she couldn't. His hand traveled down to the apex of her thighs, and began to massage her between her legs.
She threw her head back against his shoulder, and felt her passion begin to build.
Kol smirked. "This is how I felt. It's horrible isn't it?" He whispered, nibbling her ear.
"Kol, please…" She whispered, feeling his fingers move onto her skin, and slowly entered her. Pleasure began to build in her body with the movement of his fingers, and she couldn't stop her hips from thrusting forward. She felt her legs turn to jelly, and her mind become cloudy.
He smiled, and pressed closer to her. "You think it'll be alright when desire goes unquenched?" He asked, pulling his fingers out of her, and out of her pants.
She panted, and closed her eyes. Licking her lips, she grasped his hand. Turning slowly around, she looked up into his eyes, and saw the desire still in his eyes, as he saw the same in hers.
"Damn you." She whispered, grasping his head, and kissed him within an inch of her life.
Kol chuckled, and pulled back. "We should go." He whispered, repeating her words from earlier.
Bonnie smiled and shook her head. "Oh, shut up." She stated, kissing him once again.
Kol picked her up, and slammed her gently against the wall. Pushing her pants and underwear down, he fingered her womanhood once more. With one hand, Bonnie undid his belt buckle from his jeans, and unfastened them. Pushing them down, she pulled back to gaze into his eyes when he slammed into her, hot, fast, yet tender.
She bit her lip, and her eyes rolled upwards, as he began to pull out and push back in, until he was completely inside her.
"Oh, God!" She moaned, gripping his shoulders.
Kol smirked, and kissed her neck with an open mouth as he felt her walls clench around him. "You are so delicious." He whispered, nibbling her neck lightly.
Bonnie smiled amidst the pleasure, and wrapped her legs tighter around his waist. "Harder!" She whispered, urgently.
Soon, with the pressure he was giving her, and the pleasure from before, Bonnie was floating on air, and felt Kol's passion reach its high as he came within her.
As Kol began to slow down his movements, he pulled his head back, and saw her face drenched with sweat, and her tank shirt was beginning to stick to her. He felt sweat build up on his back and chest, and he knew how much force and passion they had just given each other.
"I think they heard us, lass." He whispered, kissing her lips lightly.
Bonnie chuckled, and shook her head. "Who cares?" She whispered, against his lips.
Kol chuckled. "I think I'm a bad influence on you, Bonnie lass." He whispered, watching her smile.
She shrugged. "No, you're not. I'm a bad influence on you." She stated, firmly. "I'm the one who got you to make love to me, and with your brother and my friend within an ears reach." She remarked, smiling.
"I thought you didn't care?" He asked, leaning forward and kissed her lips.
She smiled, and sighed. "I don't." She whispered, opening her mouth, and pushing her tongue into his mouth.
He moaned, and pulled back. "We should go to them, Bonnie." He whispered, kissing her continuously.
She nodded. "We should." She agreed, kissing his cheek.
He smiled. "But we aren't, are we?" He asked, feeling her smile against his skin.
"Damn straight." She stated, kissing him underneath his ear.
Kol rolled his eyes, and grasped her close. "Damn it." He stated, carrying her to the bed, and laid her down.
Bonnie giggled for only a moment, before the passion began to build once more, and they forgot all about the dinner.
~XXX~
Caroline stepped outside the door, and into the night air. She wrapped her arms around her chest, and sighed, lightly.
She heard footsteps behind her, and she smiled, when she turned to see him. "Couldn't stand it in there, could you?" She asked, watching Klaus glare at her lightly.
"I swear. Those two should be in a sound proof room." He remarked shaking his head.
Caroline smiled. "Well, if memory serves, you weren't so quiet in the bedroom, either." She remarked, watching his gaze turn sultry.
"If memory serves, neither were you, love." He whispered, leaning forward.
She smiled, and shook her head, and let out a small laugh. "At least we had the decency to wait until we were away from everyone." She stated, turning her head back to the front.
He smiled, and stepped closer. "Says the woman, who begged me to take her a few feet away from our mothers and our son." He whispered, causing her to shiver.
She laughed, and was grateful for the night to hide the blush on her cheeks. "That was a long time ago, and we were different people." She whispered, though she knew if he asked or tried, she would do it again.
Klaus smiled, and reached for her right hand, and held it in his. "Are we that different?" He asked, looking at her carefully.
Caroline turned her head, and smiled. "I don't know. I don't know you." She whispered, after a moment. "Not this you." She added when he tilted his head forward, giving her a 'are you serious' look.
He smiled, and pursed his lips. "I don't know this you, either, but I want too." He whispered, leaning forward.
Caroline smiled, and nodded. "Me too."
Klaus smiled, and stepped closer, watching her turn her body to his. Leaning forward, he kissed her lips with a tenderness that brought tears to her eyes.
"I…uh, owe you an apology for the way I acted before." She replied, softly.
Klaus shook his head, and caressed her face in his hands. "No, I owe you an apology for kidnapping you again." He whispered, searching her eyes. "I shouldn't have done that, Swan." He added, in a serious tone.
She smiled, and placed her hands on his chest. "I understand why you did it, Klaus. At least now I do." She whispered, leaning forward.
She stopped midway, and smirked. "But next reincarnation…" She paused, watching him lift his brows and smile. "I'm kidnapping you." She concluded, firmly.
Klaus chuckled, and nodded. "I'll hold you to that, Swan." He stated, smiling.
"Good." She stated, closing the space between them, and kissed him softly, feeling at home and complete once more.
~XXX~
Rebekah frowned outside the door to the small extra cottage just a few feet away from the main cottage where Klaus and Caroline were staying. Actually there two extra cottages, but she and Stefan had one, and Vaughn was staying in the one she was standing in front of. Of course, so was Jean.
Rebekah closed her eyes, and bowed her head. This was not the same Jean from eight hundred years ago. This was a cruel, cold Jean.
She squared her shoulders back, and lifted her head high. Opening the door, she narrowed her eyes, and entered the cottage. Sitting in a small rocker, tied to it, more precisely, was Jean, who was glaring at her, and had a cold smile form on her lips.
"What Klaus sent you to do his dirty work?" Jean taunted, lifting a brown brow.
Rebekah closed the door, and glanced to her right to see Vaughn sitting on the couch with a pained expression on his face. He remembered his past life, and he remembered Jean. That was what made this so hard, for him, for all of them.
"Galen, will you leave us alone?" Rebekah asked, though her tone was very strict and cold.
Galen nodded, and stood up, and stepped outside into the night.
"Nik doesn't know you're here." Rebekah replied, pulling up a chair, and sitting across from the brunette. Of course that was a lie. Caroline had told him about Jean, so he knew they had her. Rebekah just didn't want him to come and see her, and neither did Caroline.
Jean scoffed. "Bull shit." She stated, turning her head a fraction, before glaring at Rebekah. "I'm sure that blonde bitch told him everything." She remarked, smirking in satisfaction.
Rebekah controlled her anger, and clutched her fists in a tight grip. "Who are you working for?" She asked, sternly.
Jean rolled her eyes. "Like I'm going to tell you a damned thing." She answered, shaking her head. "You helped Klaus destroy my life." She added, coldly.
Rebekah shook her head. "You destroyed your own life, Jean." She stated, firmly.
"Bull, I had plans for my daughter, and you dumb English jackasses took her away from me!" She shouted, jerking in the chair.
Rebekah shook her head once more. "You were an addict, Jean. We did what was best for you and for your daughter." She remarked, nodding calmly.
Jean shook her head, and turned to look away from the blonde. "Well, whatever makes you sleep at night." She stated, firmly.
Rebekah leaned forward, and placed her forearms on her legs. "Your daughter is happy, Jean. She knows the truth, and she is being taken care of by a dear friend. Would you destroy that happiness?" She asked, softly, though the anger was still in her veins.
Jean glared at her. "I'm her mother! You had no right!" She shouted, in Rebekah's face.
"We had every right, Jean!" Rebekah shouted back. "You're our sister!"
Please be kind!
Anyway, I hope you enjoy the little twist in this story! And that you approve of the way this story is going! I'm trying to slow down the relationship, but... Anyway, expect more soon!
Coming Soon: The villain is revealed! Caroline has to rely on her strength. Klaus faces the past. Jean's story is revealed.
Until Next Time...
