I fumbled with the ring on my finger causing Kols body to tense up.

"I am begging you not to remove the ring."

"Why do you care if I live or die?" I questioned circling him. "You made it perfectly clear you did not love me nor will you ever."

"No I didn't, that was the hallucinations." He stood up wincing in pain as he attempted to walk to me. "I would never say something to harm you."

I want to believe him sooo bad but Katherine keeps whispering in my ear convincing me he's lying.

Kol took another step his burning hands cupping my face looking down at me. "I fell in love with you the moment you barged into my castle." I closed my eyes trying to drown Katherine out only focus on Kol. He's real and he's burning.

KOLS POV:

Sophia's looked up at me concern filling her hazel eyes as she wrapped my arms around her shoulder letting my body lean in hers for support. Somewhere between then and now I blacked out only to awake feeling soft fabric beneath me. I sat up wincing slightly.

"You shouldn't move." Sophia was at my side sitting on the bed running a wet cloth down my chest, the sensation of hand trailing down my stomach was feeling I had missed.

Sophia noticed my smirk giving me her own little smile exposing those beautiful dimples. She teasingly went lower her palm resting just above my belt buckle.

I licked my lips watching her. "How are you feeling?"

"Well I'm still cursed I'll tell you that much."

I turned my head confused. "But you're not trying to kill yourself."

"For now. Liam gave me some special herbs to suppress the need to kill myself it also helps with the hallucination, but it only last awhile. Plus he kind of locked me in here with a barrier spell so I can't exactly leave."

I rolled on top of her brushing a strain of hair back. "I will find a way to break the curse, you have my word."

"I know you will and I love you for that..." Something seemed off with her tone.

"Why do I feel like there's a but coming?"

"But it's become apparent that no matter how hard we try and fight for each other there's always going to be something or someone getting between us."

I shrugged. "That just means we have fight harder."

"I don't think it's that simple-"

I crashed my lips on hers cutting her short. "You really shouldn't over think things love." Her smile returned as I continued to kiss her neck sliding my hands underneath her shirt.

Her grip tightened pulling me closer begging for more. I gave her, her wish removing her clothing. Sophia pinned me down her lips slowly moving down my stomach her tongue playfully teasing above my belt buckle.

I moaned aching for her to continue. "It's not nice to tease darling.."

Her hands moved up my arms as her lips returned to my neck the moment her fangs dug in every part of my body craved her even more. I moved so I was on top my teeth sinking into her neck. As her blood entered my mouth it sent pleasant shivers.

"Kol.." Sophia moaned my name eyes shut, pleasure seen in her expression.

SOPHIA'S POV:

I woke up in Kols arms smiling up at him admiring how peacful he looked asleep.

"Isn't this nice." Katherine appeared sitting at the edge of the bed. I slowly got up heading toward the bathroom turning on the shower shutting the door waiting for my sister to appear again.

"And there you are back in his arms."

I sighed keeping my voice low. "Go away."

"I am not going anywhere until you kill yourself. I am however curious as to why you told your epic love that the herbs were actually working? Didn't think you would lie to him." She arched a brow.

"I don't want him to worry any more than he is." I replied.

"How long until he leaves you again? Or you leave him? Maybe worse he dies protecting you."

"Shut up." I growled.

"Why, what are you going to do? Kill me?" She laughed only rising my anger. "Face it Soph it's only a matter of time before someone else you love dies trying to save you...Wonder who it'll be Kol? Liam, perhaps Elijah?"

"Nobody's going to die for me not again." I growled before getting into the shower.

KOLS POV:

I woke up with a smile until I realized Sophia wasn't at my side. Instantly I feared she had somehow gotten out, until I heard the shower running. I sighed with relief laying back down still a bit tired after last night.

Mumble of a voice was coming from the bathroom catching my attention. I tried to listen in but she stopped speaking. Gently I knocked on the door.

"Soph everything alright?"

The door opened her long brown hair wet sticking to her bare skin.

She smiled noticing my gaze. "If you wanted to join me all you had to do was walk in."

I smirked leaning on the arch of the door. "I was being a gentleman."

"Kol Mikaelson gentleman? Did the suns rays affect you that much?" She joked.

I laughed, "I think so, might need some medical attention, care to be my nurse?"

"And you're back." She chuckled motioning me to join her. The warm water felt good so did Sophia's hands wrapped around me.

Once we finished our shower Liam came in handing Sophia some more herbs to drink.

"Sorry about the crappy taste but I did bring something to ease it bitterness." The warlock handed her a blood bag.

"More cold blood lucky me." She reluctantly took the bag tearing the top off with her teeth.

"Better than those awful herbs, Now I am only going to say this once next time you guys have hot vampire sex can you be a tad quieter." Sophia's cheeks flared amusing me. "That being said, I really need to get laid, Your sister is very attractive and single, she is single right?"

"Say another word and I'll rip out your liver." I answered.

Both him and Sophia didn't hid their laughter.

Liam held his hands up in surrender. "No need to be nasty."

SOPHIA'S POV:

It was cute seeing the two men get along and the way they joked with each other.

"That's sweet, it's going to suck seeing them die." Katherine said, I tried to seem indifferent and just focus on Kol and Liam.

"Guess you chose the asshole over your family, again. Mom would not approve."

"You're one to talk." I blurted earning curious glances from Kol and Liam. "...About sleeping with someones sibling as I recall you slept with my sister." I stated quickly toward Liam pulling a fake smile.

"I have a thing for hot vampires." He laughed not seeming to notice my slip, Kol however was still watching me concern easily seen in his expression. Liam left going god knows where.

"Where is Elijah?" I questioned curiously.

"Elijah went in search for Niklaus, I informed him of how Klaus wasn't exactly right last I saw him figured Elijah could talk some sense into him." Kol answered.

I found myself smiling. "Aww someone cares about his big brother."

He laughed playing with my hands. "Just don't go telling people, after all I do have a reputation to uphold."

"Don't worry your secret's safe with me." Kol kissed me his body landing on mine.

"Ste nemilost tova semeistvo." Papa appeared saying I disgraced our family.

Instantly I pushed Kol off hearing my fathers voice.

"What's wrong darling?" He looked at me confused that I had pushed him away.

I looked between him and my father, whom did not seem to like Kol one bit saying some very mean words in Bulgarian.

I coughed attempting to drown papa out. "Uh I think I just need to get some rest." He nodded not moving. "Without distractions."

Kol groaned but did as I asked leaving the room. Now I can have a little father daughter chat.

KOLS POV:

I left Sophia feeling like she wasn't being truly honest, the last thing I want to do is compel information out of her, so for now I'll let her do what she wants hopefully she will tell me what's going on.

Liam sat one couch flipping through a grimore.

"How much more herbs do you have?" I asked the warlock.

"Not much which is why we need to break the curse like yesterday." He replied eyes not leaving the page.

"Any luck finding a spell?"

"Nope, the only way to break the curse is for another hunter to take the last ones place. And I for one haven't got a clue on where we could find say hunter."

"Looks like you and I need to go on a little search."

"And leave Sophia alone? Even with the barrier up who would make sure she didn't do anything stupid? Speaking of stupid got you a new ring...again."

"Thanks mate and how is that stupid?"

"I mean you're an original not having a sun ring wont kill you, right?" He tossed the blue sapphire ring.

"Still affects us the same as other vampire just without the death part." I replied putting the ring on. "And I wouldn't leave Sophia alone, I called a reinforcement."

Before Liam could speak the door bell rang. I zoomed to the door swinging it open.

I smiled at the girl in front of me. "Hello Bekah, how nice of you to show."

My sister smiled back. "Oh Kol nice to see you not burnt."

"Not that family bickering isn't very entertaining but we need to get a move on, Barbie please do come in." Liam invited my sister inside. "In a couple hours give her a blood bag and this." He handed her a bottle of herbs. "Make sure she finishes it all."

"Why does it feel like I'm baby sitting?"

"Because you are." He replied smirking.

"We'll be back soon, if something happens call Liam immediately."

"Why don't I just call you?"

"Because your alcoholic temperamental brother shattered his phone." Liam smiled patting my shoulder. "Now lets go."

I followed Liam out jumping in his car. Time for a rode trip with the ADD warlock, just hope we find a new hunter and quick.
