Caroline closed her eyes and tilted her head back as the kisses trailed up the inside of her leg, groaning out. "Why must you tease me Nik?"

"Because… you love it, my little Parisian Princess."

She giggled at that, breath catching in her throat as his lips creeped ever higher inside her thighs, nipping at the hem of her panties as she went. "I thought you were taking me out Nik? Not, ah, trying your luck."

Klaus paused, then was straddling her hips in a flash, leaning down to press a light kiss to her lips, smirking playfully.

"Ah, but I love trying my luck. Just as much as I love you."

Caroline kissed him passionately at that, letting him move his lips to that spot he knew she loved under her ear, muttering. "You have a heart of stone."

"Ah, but you can smash through it at ease."

"Indeed I can my love."

Klaus tugged at her earlobe, smiling against her as he went. "Come on. I want to-"

"Fuck me?"

"Tempting, but I want to take you out for dinner. Go put on a dress. I'll catch a quick shower."

Klaus got off her, stepping into the bathroom and closed it behind him.

Caroline stretched out on the bed, staring up at the villas roof.

They had been in Paris for a month now, Klaus getting them one of the most beautiful Parisian villas she had ever seen…

He was her king.

And she was his queen.

The villa was large, luxurious and whitewashed on the outside. The entrance was an archway of cherry trees, just coming into blossom. There was a large swimming pool in the back, the weather more than warm.

Caroline walked into the walk in wardrobe, picking out a dark sapphire strapless dress that fell to her ankles, straightening her hair as Klaus came out the shower in just a towel, Caroline sitting on the edge of the bed, crossing her ankles. "Come on. Hurry."

"Oh?" Klaus smirked, dropping the towel and stepped out of it, Caroline watching him turn around and bit her lip at the rear view, groaning out. "Come on Nik. Tease me later."

"I'm just getting dressed sweetheart."

"Mmmmmhmmm."

Caroline ignored him, watching as he yanked his boxers on, some midnight jeans and a white shirt, topping it off with a black leather jacket, making the girl get to her feet and walk over, tracing a finger down his chest, looking him up appreciatively.

The hybrid pecked a kiss to her lips, cocking his head. "Ready dear?"

"Always."

-Marked-

Caroline sat at the bottom of the stone steps, the streets dark, glancing up at the hybrid as he held the girl to him, ripping into her neck.

She watched him wind a hand into her auburn locks, biting into her again with a quiet, yet feral growl.

At that, she tutted, getting to her feet and walked over, yanking the girl from him and biting into her unbitten side.

Klaus watched in appreciation, folding his arms and just stared at his beautiful little ripper for a moment, muttering out. "Ma princesse parisienne."

Caroline felt Klaus join her, biting back into the girl until she was drained, dropping her to the floor where she never moved. The blonde felt Klaus push her into the wall, capturing her bloodied lips to his own.

"What was that you said to me?" She breathed against his lips, Klaus laughing against them, creeping a hand down and under the hem of her dress, Caroline scoffing as she kissed him heatedly. "Not here."

"I've no quarrels with here and now."

Caroline closed her eyes, muttering out as he tugged her panties down a little. "You've still not told me."

"It means 'My Parisian Princess'" Klaus whispered into her ear as he moved to it, growling in annoyance as a pair of men rounded the corner, wolfwhistling as they saw the Original with his hand up the girls dress.

Caroline rolled her eyes as he vanished, the sudden screams cutting off as snaps rent the air, groaning out. "Hate to say, but I told you so."

Klaus huffed and walked back to the girl, taking her hand in his, cocking his head. "Fine fine, back to the villa." He smirked at that, nipping at her lips. "I want you out that pretty little dress love."

"Impatient."

"Oh no. I'll lay you later. I want to draw you."

"… have you been watching Titanic?"

"Never."

"Ok… Klaus Dawson."

"Caroline De witt… blah blah."

Caroline smirked at that, shaking her head. "You are just… too cute."

"For that, I'm going to bend you over that bed."

"Bring it big boy."

-Marked-

They were barely though the door when their lips locked once more, Caroline groaning against his lips as he pushed her into the bedroom and onto the bed.

"We're not basing this relationship on sex."

"I wasn't aware we were. You can't keep your hands off me as much as me."

Caroline placed a hand on his chest, pushing him away with a laugh. "Later. Before your werewolf side gets all frisky again."

The hybrid smirked once more, placing his hands on her hips, cocking his head. "Strip for me."

Caroline never moved, but then she smiled sweetly, unzipping the side of her dress, letting it fall down as she stood up, leaving her in her strapless bra and lace lingerie.

Klaus very nearly licked his lips at the sight, looking up at her as he sat at the edge of the bed, Caroline stepping forwards, eyes locked onto his own as he trailed a hand up her spine to the clasp of her bra, unsnapping it in a flash, letting it fall away, slowly rising to his feet, kissing up her chest, closing his eyes, whispering as he paused between her cleavage. "Ma princesse parisienne."

Caroline closed her own eyes, feeling light, teasing fingers hook into her panties, tugging them down and pushing her backwards onto the bed, kissing her chest with a light groan as he straddled her hips, muttering. "You really are my Parisian Princess."

"I love that name."

"Hush sweetheart. You just lie here and be your beautiful self."

Caroline arched a brow and raised a hand to brush the hair from her eyes, but Klaus caught her wrist, smirking. "Nope. Don't move."

"Why? I look a mess."

"No. You look like yourself- Ma princesse parisienne."

"You're really overusing that line now."

"Hush. Or I'll compel you."

That made her shut up- he'd done it before when she was being a total bitch, going to slap him. Only lifted it because she literally stabbed him in the heart while he slept.

The first true argument they had as a pair.

He made them argue at times just for the fiery make up sex that followed.

Damn was she a wildcat now.

His tiger.

His burning, torrid, passionate phoenix.

Caroline rolled her eyes and closed them as she spied the hybrid taking out his easel, tutting. "Seriously Nik? Don't you have like… how many drawings of me? Especially naked."

"One can never have enough naked drawings."

Caroline rolled her eyes once more, relaxing her pose, listening to the rustle of paper as he tightened the stand, holding back a giggle, and Klaus smirked. "Hush. At least you're not shy anymore."

"Shy? I don't think, with how much you've seen me naked, that I could get shy anymore."

"Good thinking sweetheart."

She stayed still and silent through the whole thing, and when the scratching of charcoal stopped, she asked, staring at the ceiling. "Can I get up now?"

There was another rustle of paper, then she felt hands trace up her legs, a bare chest pressing to her own a moment later, raising a finger and tapping the end of his nose, sighing out. "Can't you keep your clothes on for more than five minuets?"

"Not with you around sweetheart." He muttered against her lips as he met them, Caroline kissing him lightly as she hitched a leg around him, biting her own lip as she felt him ease into her, walls adjusting to his familiar length.

She wrapped her arms around his neck loosely, tilting her head back and arching her hips as the hybrid started up the steady rhythm, kissing him passionately, breathing against his lips. "I love you."

Klaus said nothing for a start, skimming his hands down her sides to rest on her hips, gripping them tightly, eventually muttered against Carolines lips. "I love you too."

Caroline let her toes curl in pleasure, the familiar emotions and feeling rising within her, kisses becoming more headed, more ardent and heated. It was nothing new.

After a moment, Caroline flipped them over, smiling sweetly as she kissing up his chest to his neck, grinding against him, feeling the hybrids breath catch in his throat, winding a hand into his hair as she repeatedly slammed down on him, the way that made him go wild.

They'd spent too many nights in the others company to not know what pushed the others buttons.

Caroline had a love of dominating him.

And Klaus hated it.

But he let her.

He always let her.

Caroline groaned lightly against his lips as she grabbed his hands, pinning them above his head as she thrusted harder, making him hiss out. "Is this punishment for the other day?"

"Depends which one you're thinking about my love."

"…"

"Oh? You mean the one where you pinned me down while I was asleep, because you woke up horny?"

"…you made that sound so… unappealing."

"You try waking up to find your hybrid on top of you."

"Well, you've done it to me."

"Hmm, true."

"Shut up woman."

"Dog."

"Bitch."

"Oooh, careful Nik. You might turn me on (!)"

"You see me and drop your panties in an instant love."

"In your dreams."

"No. In my dreams you're always naked. Now shut up and-"

"Fuck me?"

"Crude but effective."

Caroline smiled sweetly, kissing his cheek and stopped, making him scowl. "Care…"

She kissed his cheek and whispered playfully. "This is your punishment." She pulled off and got up, standing up and smirked down at him, watching him close his eyes and rest his head back, groaning out. "You bitch."

"Oooh, keep talking dirty and I'll make it a week ban."

"I'm going to make you scream love."

Caroline just winked at his threat, laughing out. "When you're a good boy."

Klaus shoot his head as she slipped her dress back on, trotting off out the room, chuckling to the ceiling, closing his eyes-

She hadn't turned into a full ripper. He would never allow that… but she was something special.

Something beautiful.

Deadly.

Lethal

And downright merciless at times.

His beautiful predator.

-Marked-

Outside, Caroline leaned against the outside wall of the villa, closing her eyes, for a moment, then glancing up at the stars-

So clear.

So beautiful.

The amount of times she and her hybrid had slept beneath them… she'd lost count.

Caroline was silent, listening to the sounds of the night when she heard the footsteps, frowning lightly and turning her head to the right, feeling her eyes widen as she stared at the man stepping through the darkness.

"Tyler-?"

He said nothing for a start, then shook his head, muttering. "Caroline."

The blonde was taken aback, literally- what was he doing here-?

"What are you doing here? How… how did you even find us-?"

"With great difficulty." He told her, scowling. "What the fuck have you become?"

Caroline stood her ground at that, eyes narrowing. "That's none of your business. Not anymore."

"He changed you."

"For the better."

"Like hell he did." Tyler snarled, starting forwards.

But before he could even take a step forwards, Caroline heard a low growl, Tyler being sent flying, smashing into the wrought iron gate to the villa, Klaus keeping him pinned against it by his throat, feet not touching the floor.

Tyler growled, grabbing the hybrids hand with both hands, trying to get him off.

Caroline watched in silence, staring at the hybrid in just his jeans, disturbed halfway through getting dressed, his eyes narrowed at the young hybrid before him.

"Look what we have here- my old little bitch." Klaus smirked, grip tightening. Tyler snarled into his face. "Let me go fucker."

"Manners Lockwood."

"Fuck you."

Klaus scoffed, grip tightening as he stepped back, tossing Tyler further down into the dirt track, narrowing his eyes. "I can't say it was a pleasure seeing you again Tyler. Run along. Before I rip your heart out."

"Try it." Tyler challenged, and Caroline shook her head, muttering. "Just leave Tyler."

"Caroline… he's corrupted you. Are you that blind-?"

"Fuck-off Tyler-!" Caroline now snarled, feeling her fangs shoot out in rage-

Was he that dumb?

Yeah. He was.

Tyler glanced to the Original and snapped. "I'll be back. Mark my words."

"I look forward to it." Klaus said coldly in return at the young mans retreating back, then glanced to Caroline. "You ok love? He didn't bite you?"

"No he didn't. I'm fine." She muttered, sighing lightly. "I'm calling it a night." Caroline stepped forwards, placing a soft kiss on his cheek, whispering. "I love you. Come join me when you can my love."

Klaus nodded, catching her hand for a second, letting go as she walked back to the villa, closing the French door behind her, leaving it unlocked for him.

The hybrid leaned against the iron gate, groaning lightly-

As if they would ever find peace with the past stalking them…
