Her feet were sore, crying out in pain.

They were plum red from all the walking she had done.

Miles, many long tiresome miles Caroline had walked. A sad cry left her, dry lips as she kicked her feet outwards. It pained her to keep moving.

Every step she took her feet was throbbing out. Her thirst for a drink, was killing her. Her throat was dry as a bone, she could kill for a drink right now.

Her eyes widened when she saw a building coming in sight. A sigh of relief came out with a joyful smile, spread across her face. I'm saved! She thought to herself as she picked up her pace, desperate to get there quicker.

Luckily enough for Caroline, she found a café that was open. Caroline wasn't sure what time it was now, as the moonlight had disappeared, and out came the sunlight.

She didn't care all she could think about was, eating and drinking. But then it hit her hard across the face, she realised that she didn't have any money.

No stranger would take pity on her, no matter how hungry she was. Her stomach growled loudly as she glanced inside, the café's window.

Caroline sighed a low sad sigh dropping her eyes, from the food taunting her. "I'm so hungry!" she groaned out. "Are you ok sweetheart?" a deep manly voice called behind her.

She almost jumped out of her skin, this voice was British like Klaus's. But she knew it wasn't Klaus behind her.

Slowly Caroline spun around to face this mysterious British man. He was tall with black short hair, nothing like Klaus at all. He was grinning at her, his gaze was soft on her.

"I'm fine." she mumbled out while glancing around him. Her stomach growled once again, earning a laugh from him. "Doesn't sound like it." he said with a wider grin.

Caroline just stared at him, he put his hand out to her. "I'm Enzo, and you are?" Caroline looked him over not knowing, wither to trust him or not. But her hunger for food, was too much to care.

"I'm Caroline." she said quietly, shit maybe I should have made a name up! Enzo smirked noticing she didn't shake his hand, "Would you like to get some food? I can see or hear more like, you're rather hungry." he joked.

"Yeah." Please! Enzo walked over to the café door and opened it for her, Caroline gave him a half smile as she slid into a seat.

"Get anything you want, I'm feeling quite faint from hunger." Enzo purred, with a wicked glint in his eyes. "What do you fancy?" Caroline found herself asking him.

You. "A burger with some chips, will do me." he said grinning from ear to ear, as if she had told an hilarious joke.

"What can I get you both?" the waiter asked them. They ordered, then they ate. Caroline drank and drank, filling herself up with food.

Not knowing when she would next eat.

"Caroline, may I ask you a question?" Enzo asked after he had paid the bill. They were now stood outside the café, standing by the bus stop.

"Sure." she said nodding her head sightly, as she watched the road, as she waited for the bus to arrive. They always did arrive late.

"Are you alone?" he questioned getting straight to the point. Caroline closed her eyes, while taking in a deep breath. "You don't have to answer, if you don't want to." he breathed out, she could feel his warm breath on her bare shoulders.

It sent a cold unhappy shiver down her, she then opened her eyes, glancing over to the road once again. "I am." she mumbled under her breath.

"I see."

A few silent seconds past them by, "Would you like to come travelling with me?" he asked with hopefully eyes. Caroline was sightly shocked.

Turning herself around, Caroline gazed into his eyes. "What.." she breathed out. Her eyes searched his. "You could be a serial killer, for all I know." she half laughed out.

"I'm not, I promise." he said cheerfully, too cheerfully for Caroline's liking. She remained silent as she started deeply at him. "Look, I'll be honest with you Caroline." he said with a long sigh towards, the end.

"I know who you are, who you really are." he began to say. Caroline's eyes widen for a second or two. "How?" she asked. "I'm a vampire."

"And we vampire's do tend to talk, too much." he laughed loudly.

Caroline gasped the second she heard vampire, she was backing away from him within seconds. Enzo raised his hands up, his face blank. "I won't hurt you, I promise!" he told her firmly.

She was shaking her head violently, as she felt herself tearing up. Her father's face came crawling into her mind. "You can trust me." Enzo tried to calm her down.

"How can I? When a vampire killed my father and nearly killed me, and my mother!" she shouted rather loudly. A look of pure hate in her eyes.

"I know Klaus, the king of the underworld is looking for you." Enzo took a step forwards, towards Caroline his hands still raised up.

"So?" Caroline cried. "I can protect you, I can keep you hidden from his preying eyes." his voice was soft, but truthful.

"Why?" she spat out, still unsure of him and his kind words. "Why do you want to help me?" she questioned him. "Because he killed my family too, all because I wouldn't stand by his side." Enzo growled out.

His eyes flashed with hurt, that he couldn't hide. Caroline's gaze softened. She stopped taking steps backwards. "I want him dead, just as much as you do Caroline." his voice was thick with anger.

"Ok." she whispered out, before biting down harshly on her bottom lip. She couldn't believe she was putting, her life in this man's hands.

"Really?" he raised his eye brow at her. Caroline nodded her head. "Come, my cars over here." Once they began driving away, Caroline couldn't help but still feel something was wrong.

"So..where are we going?" she asked after she saw the, You're now leaving Mystic Falls sign. "You'll love it were we're going. Big city, loud music, lots of people." Enzo said with a happy smile.

"Sounds..lovely." Caroline smiled back. "Trust me you'll settle in, in no time. Plus I have family there too, so they can keep you safe, when I need to..hunting." he muttered towards the end.

Caroline laughed nervously "So what's this wonderful place called then? she asked again.

Enzo coughed with a hint of sadness creeping into his eyes. His voice was a whisper in the air, she had hardly heard him speak the words.

"New Orleans."

His phone buzzed loudly in the room, it was at his ear within seconds. "Yes?" he growled down the phone. "We've found something." the person on the other end said.

"Which is what?!" Klaus hissed angrily as he slapped his hand down on the desk. His patience was watering thin, anything Klaus wanted. He always got and without waiting for it either.

But his sweet Caroline was making him wait for it, and it angered him deeply. He wanted to claim her already, he did find it hard to be patient.

"We've found Caroline's mother, Liz.." the voice said. "What about Caroline?" Klaus demanded. There was silence for a few seconds, until Klaus growled harshly down the phone.

"We couldn't find her, but we followed her scent to a café miles, and miles away from the hotel they were staying in." Klaus rolled his eyes before, smashing his glass against the wall.

"You need to find her and fast! Or else heads will roll!" He threatened with harsh growls. Klaus's heavy breathing down the phone, was already scaring the man behind the other end.

"Yes sir!" he muttered out. "Klaus.. what shall I do about the mother?" he asked. Klaus didn't give it much of a thought, his smirk was wicked as ever. "Kill her, and make sure it's painful too. I want you to record her screams or agony." he said looking proud of himself.

Not a care in the world.

"Yes sir.-right away.."

"Just for keepsake, once I have my mate by my side. I can't have her, trying to escape now can I. This will keep her in check." he chuckled darkly.

He ended the call, then waved a human slave over to him. He had made sure to stock up on them. Especially after that shared dream, he gave Caroline.

Klaus played it over and over in his head, it tormented him badly. The look of innocent lust upon her face, turned him on so bad. He wanted to film them, so he watch it over and over again.

He couldn't wait to taste her for real, her blood, her cum, her tears. To lick clean every blood and sweat from her tiny body.

No matter how many human slaves he went through, their blood wasn't a pact on Caroline's. His Caroline's blood was pure, and rich.

It tasted too good to share.

And will a few vampires running, around that weren't by standing by him. He couldn't bare the thought of another vampire, coming along and stealing her away.

His smirk grew as he heard his human slave scream out, as he burred his fangs, deeply into her flesh. He drunk her dry, before flicking her dead body from him.

His phone rang once again, this better be good he thought with a sigh. "What." he spat out while whipping the blood from his lips.

"I haven't found Caroline but another vampire, said he saw her getting into a car with someone."

Klaus was all ears, "Good boy, now don't ring me again until you've found her." he warned the poor boy at the other end. Klaus then ended the call with a wide grin on his face.

"What's got you so happy?" Kol asked as he let out a sigh, as he glanced at the dead blonde on the floor.

"Oh nothing, can't I just be happy over nothing?" he laughed. "You're never happy unless, you have caused pain." Kol muttered as he poured himself a drink.

Klaus just rolled his eyes at his brother. "Rebecca won't be too happy, to hear we're coming home." Kol said after downing his drink.

"So? I don't go about my life to please her. She will have to just deal with it!" Klaus growled under his breath. "I thought you wanted to stay, in Mystic Falls for Caroline? Or have you gone off her already." Kol laughed.

Klaus flashed a warning glare towards his brother, "Actually I have my men looking for her as we speak. New Orleans is our home brother, and Caroline will be living there with us. No matter where I am Caroline will be." Klaus said calmly.

Kol rolled his eyes while downing another drink. "Well aren't you the romantic, all of a sudden. One would think you've gone soft."

The glass Kol was holding was now smashed on the floor, Klaus's hand wrapped tightly around Kol's throat. Klaus's eyes glowing bright red with anger.

"I am not going soft!" Klaus gritted out, he was breathing heavily. Kol then placed his hands onto Klaus's chest, and shoved Klaus off of him. They exchanged a few punches between them, they were both just as strong as each other.

After Klaus's study was smashed up, the brothers stopped fighting. "So angry brother." Kol taunted Klaus. "Let's hope Caroline can tame the beast." he sang out.

Klaus glared daggers at him, a low grumbled escaped Klaus's mouth. "What are you going to do, when you do find Caroline?" Kol questioned.

"That has nothing to do with you!" Growled Klaus. "All you'll do is break, the poor girl. You've already stolen her family away, her whole life.

I thought love was a vampire's greatest weakness. And here you are, the great and powerful King. Falling in love with a human." Kol chuckled his eyes taunting with amusement.

"Shut it! Or else." Klaus warned him.

"Or else what? You have gone soft, because you would have killed me by now. Wouldn't you." Kol grinned. Before Kol could speak another word, Klaus's hand was in Kol's chest. Squeezing down hard on Kol's heart, Klaus smirked darkly at his baby brother.

"Niklaus! Remove you're hand from Kol's chest at once." Elijah roared out as he stormed into the room. "No." Klaus smirked. "Niklaus killing Kol won't help anything!" Elijah said with a sigh.

"I don't care, or am I too soft now to kill you brother?" Klaus taunted flashing Kol a toothy grin. "I dare you to call me soft again, I dare you." Klaus hissed flashing his fangs at Kol.

Elijah flashed in front of Klaus and shoved him away, Kol gasped out a breath of air. His hands clamping over his now healed chest. "You dick! You could have killed me." Kol shouted clearly quite pissed off with Klaus.

"So what." Klaus rolled his eyes playfully. "Kol why don't you go out, and get some fresh blood." Elijah told him. Kol just groaned at Elijah, before racing off.

"You're temper seems to have gotten worse, now you've found you're mate." Elijah stated with a frown.

"I can't help it! You know what the witch said, once an alpha male finds his mate, they must claim them. Otherwise the alpha male goes crazy with want." Klaus groaned at his brother.

Klaus ran his hands through his hair, pulling at it slightly. Klaus took a deep breath of air, "I must claim her before the full moon, otherwise she will died.." Klaus grumbled out.

Elijah scowled at Klaus, "But the witch said she would only die, if you both shared blood?..You didn't-did you?" he asked confused.

"Her blood..it was too damn tempting. And she..- she only had a little bit of my blood. She wasn't meant to taste my blood, until after I claim her. But she bit my finger, enough to draw a little bit of blood."

Elijah closed his eyes briefly "Oh dear god." he mumbled under his breath. "We must find her Elijah, I can't lose my mate." Elijah could almost hear sadness in Klaus's voice.

"I know. And we will." Elijah promised him.
