after the words left my lips Klaus had his hands on my cheeks jerking my head in all different directions to find a reason that would tell him that I wasn't a doppelgänger. That I was lying to him. "If I wasn't on vervain I'd prove to you that I'm a doppelgänger." A doppelgänger, not the doppelgänger key words. I couldn't wear vervain because of the many visits I received from other vampires. But since I couldn't wear it I made sure to drink it everyday like it was water.
Not even bothering to say anything, Klaus pulled me to his private quarters with his vampire speed. But he had been so careful with her. As he pushed her into a seat as he grabbed a drink, and sat on the coffee table across from her. He leveled himself with her elbowson his knees, back bent. "Speak." Not paying him any mind I grabbed his drink and downed it without a thought.
She had never had a drink in her life before and flinched she could still feel the burn in her gut. "Are we alone?" He nodded with a smile on his face from my reaction to his drink. "We've met before," I pulled out a silver charm on a well worn leather cord from around my neck. Klaus ran his thumb over the silver. "I just wanna say thank you for that day. There are two doppelgängers. The other one is my twin. I've never met." The look he gave told me he didn't believe something I've just said. "The Petrova line never ended. Your actually in contact with one. Isobel is my mother by genetics. Isobel and Katherine planned to give me to you to break your curse for the Petrova lines freedom but more or less Katherine's freedom." Isobel was terrible through Katherine in she was just plain cruel.
"Klaus I wasn't going to let them hand me over to you to simply die. They had a witch one way bond us. Whatever happens to Elena happens to me twice as bad. If Elena dies I die. If I die Elena lives her life and gets everything she's ever wanted. A nice house with a white picket fence the works. I have a theory that they linked my life force to hers using mine to heal her to make sure she survives." I went to grab his glass again, but stopped when I realized the only thing left in the glass was ice.
Understanding that I need a drink and I really did need one right now. He filled the glass to the brim. I couldn't done it yet unless I wanted to spill it all over myself and the furniture. We sat in silence as I finished my drink slowly. I'm was surprised I wasn't drunk already. "I meant it literally Klaus whatever happens to her happens to me." I started pulling my shirt off slowly leaving me in my bra. Klaus's face went from intently listening to shock. In no way was I trying to seduce him. She wouldn't even know where to start. Turning her back to Klaus to show him her back. Peeling the large white bandage off her shoulder slowly to make the pain lessen than just ripping it off. "I don't heal from her wounds. I've had this one for two months."
Turning her head to look him in the eye. "Klaus she gonna kill me, and I don't know if I'll come back this time." She couldn't help the tremble that went through her body at the thought of all the gruesome things that had happened to her for her to even know that she could come back.
"Back?" His face still in shock but also very cautious as he looked upon Piper.
"I've walked away from things people shouldn't walk away from. Things people shouldn't wake up from. Thanks to them." She muttered the last part.
I felt the cool difference between his fingers and my warm back. I jumped in shock. I hadn't been expecting to be touched or coolness of him. He had touched the wound I had for the past two months that refused to heal. "Do you know what the ritual entails?" I simply nodded because I did and I knew it was gruesome. "Do you believe you could survive?" I was shocked yet again. Would I survive? I didn't know. He was still touching my back. It was strange to have someone touch you so gentle when your not use to it.
Slowly pulling away to grab my shirt and putting it on. Turning my back to him moving back to my seat. I couldn't sit all the way back because of the wound. Also I didn't want the blood to bleed through my white shirt on the furniture. "I don't know. It's old magic and I've only been bitten once but never drained so I wouldn't know if I'd survive." That's the only hope I had. That some how I would wake up somewhere in a nice big bed with an extra soft blanket.
Klaus sat in the chair with me. "Let me fix your wound." Before I realized what was happening Klaus shoved his wrist into my mouth forcing me to drink his blood. I took no pleasure in being force fed.
He pulls his wrist away as I push it away. Wiping my face to make sure there was no blood on me. In my frustration I wasn't sure if I should be grateful or disgusted. I knew his blood would heal my shoulder. But I can't get the taste out of mouth. Not caring that I never had an ounce of alcohol till tonight not knowing any of my limits I didn't care I grabbed his glass downing the contents. The burn made me close my eyes while I coughed as the coughing stopped I could feel the warmth in my stomach as I recovered from my third drink. I realize Klaus is laughing at me. "You taste terrible!" And his laughing was back.
Grabbing the glass that was still in my hand from me to refill it for himself. "Who fed on you Piper." It wasn't a question. He returned to his place in the antique coffee table. If it was antique was it still considered a coffee table?
Looking down at my arms because it was one of the memories that I try to hide. Even from myself. Being fed on wasn't Pleasant and I couldn't do anything to help myself.
"Piper."
"I don't know who he was Katherine brought him with her. It was a punishment. I can't remember what I did. She wanted it to be painful, but I needed to survive no matter the cost. She had the help of a witch too. The vampire was newly made, so he had no idea what he was doing. How to make it any less painful. Like I said it was meant to be a punishment." And it had been. She would never forget it. It was one of worse things she had lived through and the memories would never leave.
Klaus keeps quiet as he hands me his glass with a silent thanks. As I struggled and screamed Isobel had done nothing. That drink was exactly what I needed after that thought.
"You must know Katherine is going to be punished for leaving long ago. When me and my siblings had everything ready Elijah had even found a way to keep her alive. Human." He said it with so much anger. He would see to it that Katherine's punishment would not be simple.
To think that this all could have been over hundreds of years ago. To think they weren't just going to slaughter her they were going to save her. Save the rest of us from being hunted. You might think the originals were the only ones who would look for us. Your wrong. We are hunted down by many who know the truth.
Isobel followed the Petrova line but I'm the one who started it all. Katherine just knew I would be of use to her. It made me wonder about that day in the woods. The day I first met Klaus. How did he miss it. How did he not know.
"Isobel. I want her dead. Not punished Klaus she doesn't deserve to live after what she's done." I say just above a tiny whisper as I thumbed the only picture I had of my father. I knew he was my dad I had some hazy memories of him, but I honesty didn't know who he was and I blamed Isobel for that. This picture reassured me that he was real and not just a figment of my imagination.
Klaus slowly taking the picture from me. It was well worn from being hidden in strange places and stuffed into pockets to fast. "Your father?" Looking from the picture to me. As if studying how much we don't look alike.
"I know we don't look alike but I know he's my dad. Katherine wanted to make sure Isobel wouldn't tell him about me being alive when she went to see them. I guess he thought one of Katherine ex-lovers killed her and he was going to kill him. But Isobel showed up and now there annoying drinking buddies." Another thing was a whore and me and Elena had different fathers, but hey we're still twins.
"It's because your a doppelgänger. If you were like Isobel, normal you'd look just like him." I hated that all the doppelgängers looked alike and what I've heard similar personalities. I wasn't one for dreaming about meeting my sister but I could only hope she wasn't anything like Katherine.
Sitting here with the big bad Klaus made me think of things rather left buried. Anyone could tell I hated Isobel but there were things about her that made me burn with a hate. The rage to Enable a once innocent Child he wouldn't dare harm a fly to commit murder and more than one.
Looking at Klaus I wondered if he could answer the questions about her, and her parenting ways. I mean he lives for a long time. To be a parent 50 times over at least. Being his age must've given him some thing to know about parents and their choices. "Do you know why she picked me. Any clue why. I mean we were identical twins everything about us was the same. What made her pick me to be the one to die?"
Klaus randy's than gently through my hair. "Sweetheart," before he could get another word out I was screaming in pain. Her head felt like someone was bashing her skull in with a baseball bat.
Klaus had rocked me slowly on the couch in his arms how many lately to ease the pain that wouldn't go away. When one felt like ours passed I was slowly drifting off into an exhausted induced sleep. He laid me in his bed before going to the door to leave. Before you was all the way out of the doorway he called me. "Piper it's time you meet your family." With that I have no more energy so I let sleep take me. Tomorrow I would worry about it.
Hi everyone. Sorry I haven't updated in a really long time but I tend to do. My mom threw away the first page of this chapter so I had to rewrite it and I never realized how hard it is to rewrite something but follow something also.
