Chapter Five
Klaus, Kol and I all sat around a circular dinner table. The food in front of us was no doubt expensive and top of the range but I didn't want to eat very much. I ate about a mouthful of the meat before I couldn't eat anymore. It wasn't that I wasn't hungry, it was more the fact that I was still upset and in shock from the fact that I had been kidnapped, something strange had happened inside of me and the fact that about two hours ago Kol had tried to kill me.
"You should eat something," Klaus said to me.
"I'm not hungry," I answered quietly.
"So Klaus, what exactly are plan? We're not just going to sit around here with a half healer," Kol said before putting a forkful of mash potato in his mouth.
"Her father's human. I checked him while I was there," Klaus said.
"So it's your mother that isn't human then?" Kol asked me.
Both of their eyes on me made me feel very uneasy. It was bad enough having to sit at a table with two … well one vampire and a hybrid.
"Mum died when I was five," I replied quietly.
"Grandparents?" Klaus asked.
"Never met them," I answered as I absentmindedly put a small bit of meat into my mouth.
"Why can it never be a simple family?" Klaus muttered.
"Let's go get her Dad, he'll know how to get hold of her grandparents," Kol suggested.
Fear and anger pulsed through me.
"You leave my father out of this," I said as I stood up.
Klaus looked at me as if I was insane … I probably was.
"Really?" asked Kol as he stood up eying me.
"Really," I answered firmly.
"Make me," Kol challenged as two fangs replaces his upper canines.
Fear leapt through my chest. I realised that I was still holding my knife and fork. Without a second thought on the matter I shoved the knife into Kol's stomach and ran out of the room. I got the stairs when Kol appeared in front of me. The knife was gone and all that remained was a small patch of blood.
"Did you really think that would kill me?" Kol asked.
I was well aware that his fangs were still out. Shit.
"I thought it might hurt more," I answered.
"Sorry to be a disappointment," Kol answered.
Suddenly Kol was standing behind me with one arm wrapped tightly against my chest, holding my arms in place, the other arm held my head at a tilted angle. I stuggled and tried to pull away from him but his grip was too strong!
SHIT! HE WAS GOING TO KILL ME!
