Zara's P.O.V

I didn't go far. I wasn't strong enough to teleport back to my comfortable, semi-normal life where vampires, witches, and werewolves didn't exist. Besides even if I could, Niklaus had my scent now. He'd follow. He'd follow and I could do nothing but get my emotions under control and await his arrival. "Why did you even make me…" my voice was void of emotion. I was too weak to comprehend the pain that ricocheted through my mind, but I smelled him before he became visible to me. "Seress-" I snapped as my once beloved nickname hit air, turning on him with violent swings of my fists. He allowed the first couple series of punches without attempting to stop me. He allowed me to rage against him all my anger and frustration. "Why the fuck did you make me?!" was now a repeated cry as tears finally rushed from my eyes. He stopped my hurricane of blows then, firm hands gripping my arms to my sides. "You know why. To save your life…to become mine. My mate." Through my blurred vision, I could see his expression was both sorrow filled and longing. I snatched away from him, furious at my lack of emotional control after all these years separated from him. I brushed my hand over my eyes and faced him again this time with clear vision. Klaus stepped back, allowed my space and crossed his arms to slow his own heart which we both heard nearly beat out of control. We stared at each other for what seemed like an eternity. He spoke first. "Didn't think it possible, but you look different." "Anyone would after 827 years." Came my backlash response, taking the notion and time to actually look at him as well. He too looked different than when we last parted. My eyes travelled past the vivid scar that was still healing from the dagger and danced along the sculpted v-lines of his abdomen. *NO.* my mind forced me to come back to reality and ignore his temptation. Niklaus swallowed hard, bringing my eyes back to his. "To answer your question-" "I don't need an answer Klaus." I cut him off with a sharp voice. I saw him blink and continued. "I came back to save your life. My debt to your siblings has been paid as far as I'm concerned, we need not have further words." I gave him my genuine smirk before turning away-directly into his chest. "You're MY mate-" "YOU banished me!" I cut him off again with a raise of my chin. "I'm 'useless' to you remember?" memories began to attack me and him as well. He shook them off first. "I thought you were dead-" "You mean you hoped I was dead." His hand grabbed my chin then, forcing my lips to press together. "That. Is a lie. One you will NEVER repeat." His voice was hard and low, eyes flashing. His grip was too strong, I couldn't respond as he continued. "I admit love, I was angry. Angry, scared and hurt that you didn't trust me enough to care for you and ours. Angry that you risked your life for me, and being foolish enough to leave you to do so." I tried to yank my head away but he wasn't having it. "Afte those horrid words to you heart, after you lost- " I had strength, I pulled away as my eyes widened in the dug up pain he was about to unearth. "Shut. Up. Klaus." Was a whisper. "Hear me." Was his command. "I looked everywhere for you. For over 500 years. High, low…everywhere. No trace of you to be found. No scent that was once ours…even yours was left in this terrible place. I was mad with regret. For 612 years. Forcing several witches and Voodoo practitioners to locate you, each one dying in the process. With the thought of you gone, my sanity…my humanity died as well." He looked away and I blinked. *Were those tears?* there was silence, aside from the chirping of crickets and other night creatures. He took a deep shaky breath and returned his gaze to me. "I am sorry. Seress…I desperately ask your forgiveness." This shocked me to my core. Never would I imagine Niklaus Mikaelson to apologize like this…with this level of sincerity. However, I hardened my gaze and offered him a smile. "I forgive you Klaus, but we are not mates. Nor will we ever be." My strength had returned. With a nod, I teleported.

"How many months now?" Rebekah would not leave Zara's hair alone for the ceremony.
