Chapter 11

While everyone was eating breakfast Kiara had come to the decision that she wanted Bonnie and Matt to be her auntie and uncle also. Of course there was no argument and they accepted. Rebekah loved Matt being Kiara's uncle because she thought it made them closer. Caroline and Klaus were both sat on either side of Klaus and they were both facing each other. Caroline had noticed that there was something wrong with Kiara "sweetie, what's wrong?"

Kiara looked up from her food that she had been staring at for a few moments and then she shrugged "I don't know. I just feel funny".

This intrigued everyone at the table because Kiara had never got ill before "what do you mean funny?"

Kiara smiled and said "it's nothing bad but I just feel different".

Bonnie giggled and said "it's the bond" they all looked at her "I broke it this morning, she feels funny because she has never had a life without it".

They all smiled at Bonnie and Caroline said "thank you, Bonnie".

Kiara shot both her parents questioning looks and Klaus said "remember that bond you share with the witch?"

She nodded and said "the one where she can hurt me".

"Yes, Bonnie managed to break the bond, so she can't hurt you anymore".

Kiara looked at Bonnie with a tearful smile but then she used her hybrid speed to run to her side and hugged her "thank you, Auntie Bonnie, thank you".

Bonnie smiled and said "you deserve to be happy".

Kiara then let go of Bonnie and sat back down in her place. The table then set off into different conversations with each other. Klaus asked Caroline about her mother and that's when Caroline became alarmed. She said "oh ow".

Everyone at the table stopped talking as they heard her. Bonnie said "Care, what's wrong?"

Caroline looked at her and said "our parents".

Bonnie shared the same look as Caroline and said "oh ow" Caroline nodded "Phone".

Caroline ran upstairs to get her phone while Bonnie went into the living room. Matt laughed and said "their dead".

Everyone shot Matt and Stefan questioning looks and Stefan said "just after the werewolves started all the trouble, Caroline thought it would be better if she sent her mother away. Bonnie thought the same about her father. They sent them to London to live with Bonnie's mother, Abby, who is a vampire. Because they left when Caroline and Bonnie were 18, they were reluctant to leave. They made them promise to call everyday and said if they didn't they would come back. It may be seven years later but they still have to keep their promise".

Elijah said "when was the last time they saw their parents?"

Stefan sighed and said "about a year and a half ago. Things went quiet in Mystic Falls, so Bonnie and Caroline decided to go away for a week and see them". Klaus stood up from his seat and placed a kiss to Kiara's forehead before walking into the living room.


Caroline had quickly come back downstairs with her phone and sat on the couch next to Bonnie. They rang the phone that they had given to their parents and placed it on the table on speaker. The phone barely ran twice before three voices started shouting down the phone. They shouted about why they hadn't rung and how they defied orders. The voices were of Liz, Rudy and Abby.

Caroline and Bonnie both shot each other nervous and annoyed looks, and then Caroline said "okay, we're sorry that we didn't call, but we were preoccupied".

Rudy said "with what?"

Caroline whispered so no one could hear "saving me from a werewolf bite".

"WHAT?" Abby shouted.

Caroline had forgotten that she could hear her and regretted saying it. Liz said "what did you hear?"

"Caroline got bit by a werewolf".

"Caroline, are you okay?"

"I'm fine, mum" Caroline said "I managed to get the cure in time".

They were all silent as everyone knew the cure for a werewolf bite. Caroline and Bonnie sat anxiously for their reaction. Surprisingly Rudy was the first to speak "Bonnie, Caroline, tell me you are not with him"

Bonnie laughed nervously and said "we're not with him".

"Caroline Forbes, Bonnie Bennett, I want you to tell me the truth, now" Liz said.

Both girls sighed but then Caroline said "we're in New Orleans and yes we are with Klaus and the other originals".

"What are you doing there?" Abby said.

"We needed Klaus' blood to heal Caroline" Bonnie said.

"You could have got his blood then left, why haven't you left yet?"

"There have been some...new developments" Bonnie smiled at Caroline.

Liz said "would you care to elaborate".

Bonnie looked at Caroline as she didn't know if she wanted them to know. After a few moments of silence, Caroline sighed and said "I'm in love with him".

"Caroline, please tell me this is a joke? He's a monster; he's killed thousands if not millions of people".

"We have all killed people".

"But not like he has".

"What does it matter? I love him...mum, please say something".

"I can't".

Caroline nodded and said "I see where you stand on this". Caroline then stood up and whooshed off, upstairs to her room.

That was the first time that Bonnie had seen Klaus, stood watching them. She was about to talk to him but he held up his hand to stop her, before following Caroline. Bonnie sighed but then picked the phone up and tried to reason with Liz.


Upstairs Caroline had lied down on her bed and was crying. She didn't want to fall out with her mum over this because she was only following her heart. She knew that her mum would tell her to leave Klaus but she wanted to be with Klaus for the rest of eternity and their daughter...but she didn't want to choose either.

She lied there crying, for a few moments before she felt an arm come around her waist. She knew it was Klaus and quickly wiped her tears before sitting up. She put on a smile and said "what are you doing in here?"

He gave her a sympathetic look and said "don't do this, Love. I know why you're upset, don't try to keep me locked out".

She looked down at her hands and said "she just doesn't understand that's all".

"Let's go to London then".

She narrowed her eyes and said "what?"

"If I have to face the devil or even your mother to make you happy and to be with you, then so be it. We will go to London and while you and Bonnie spends some time with your parents, your mother will adjust to the idea of you being with me as she couldn't live without speaking to her only daughter".

"And what will you be doing, while Bonnie and I are with them?"

He smirked and said "well I was thinking of bringing Kiara too and showing her around the city...and then in our spare time spending it with you" he kissed her delicately.

She smiled when he leaned his forehead on hers "as tempting as that sounds, you have your kingdom to run".

"Our kingdom. It along with everything else I have became yours, when you accepted my daughter and said you loved me" he traces her jaw with his fingertips "a Queen fit for a King...anyway, we can always have Elijah and Rebekah watch over the city. So what do you say?"

"I say yes".

"Perfect. I do have a meeting today though, so I will tell the council I will be leaving someone else in charge. We can leave tomorrow".

"Thank you, for doing this".

"You still haven't realised, I would do anything for you. All you have to do is ask".
