A/N: Happy Easter everyone!

Thank you again to all those who continue to follow and love this story, especially to those who leave comments and reviews. A very special thank you to twotoe who took the time out to correct my oversight, I'm not perfect so it's much appreciated.

Like I said, some parallel's with TO will happen but mostly this story will be based on what I wanted the direction TO will go into, I'm trying to bring in Klaus' werewolf side into the picture which has never really been the focus of both TO/TVD.

As usual, I do not own any of the characters and I chose to write them the way I want their story to move forward even if it's so far from what's happening in TO.

Happy reading everyone…..


Chapter 11

Klaus opened the door of the mansion and stepped out to the balcony overlooking the courtyard of the compound with Elijah beside him. The night had been calm so far, the few daywalkers and vampires have all been camped out in the dark with little to no banter going on. Elijah glanced at his brother, "brother, don't you think it would cause an uproar to have werewolves just walk into the compound without notice?"

Klaus smirked, "what's a little bedlam, and besides I'm in need of entertainment. It would also give the wolves some cause for discomfort to be amongst natural enemies. I for one want to see how both kinds react to one another, wouldn't you?"

Elijah shook his head and exhaled, "what I want to see is a healthy alliance, not discord amongst the supernatural community. A little support brother from you will go a long way."

Klaus raised his hands up, "I do not intend to stand in your way brother. There is just matters to discuss with the wolf clan and my supposed ancestors," eying the entrance of Jackson and Oliver, the werewolves he had summoned. Jackson and Oliver paused slightly at the entrance of the courtyard watching the vampires across the courtyard as they had seized whatever they were doing to face the pair.

Klaus from his perch called out to the werewolves, "as you can see, the Quarter is full of supernaturals, vampires are a large contingent of them. Your presence here is a minority, still debatable if my brother were to be asked his opinion. I however, being part werewolf myself have no such issue with you. Nevertheless, I implore you to tread carefully, your company is not exactly a welcome sight as of yet."


Caroline heard a whistle as Kol looked in on her as she was doing some finishing touches on her make-up. Caroline scrunched her face, "you don't think it's a bit too much?"

Kol pretended to circle Caroline looking at her ensemble up and down, "tight leather pants, a barely their tank top and knee high boots….I don't think so. What is think is you're not only going to give my brother a heart-attack but you're going have everyone else falling over themselves. Way to make your debut as Queen, sister dear."

Caroline turned around to face Kol, "not quite Queen," scrunching her face, "I don't really like that title. But really, that's twice you called me sister."

Kol wiggled his brows, "you like that don't you. Well, it won't be the last time for sure, like I said. I've watched you with my brother. You're good for him and he's good for you. If you want my honest opinion I think you are the only one standing in the way of your own happiness," shrugging, "but I guess I understand, my brother has always been complicated."

Caroline bit her lip, "that's exactly how Elijah described your brother."

"Hey, I'm his brother after all. Complicated runs in the family." Placing his hands on Caroline's shoulders, "you've understood him and opened him up more in the last few months than any of us could have done in a thousand years."

Caroline smiled, "when did you get to be so wise Kol Mikaelson, where did the juvenile boy go."

Kol grinned, "he's still here," making lewd gestures to himself. "But seriously, my brother couldn't have chosen a better mate. Would you ever have thought in a thousand years that you would be a Mikaelson."

Caroline laughed to cover her sudden uneasiness, "I'm not a Mikaelson, Kol."

Kol wiggled his finger, "yet."

Caroline exhaled, "stop right there. You're making me nervous. I need to be calm the first time I meet Klaus' werewolf clan."

Kol kissed Caroline cheek, before turning her around and pushing her outside of the bedroom, "you're more than ready, sister. Now Go."


"Brother, loosen up a bit. The wolves are my family too. We can't keep them away forever," Klaus patted the back of Elijah. "Forgive my brother, ah where are my manners," proceeding to pour out a glass of scotch for each one and handing Jackson, Oliver and his brother one each. "Like I said, I am inclined to give the werewolves a representation in the alliance, but it's my brothers pet project therefore he gets the final say." Pointing at the werewolves, "you will have to convince him of your intent and that our kinds' representation benefits everyone."

Elijah swallowed his drink then turned to Jackson, "I am willing to listen, in the interest of fairness."

Jackson was affronted to having have to explain to a vampire, even if he was Klaus' brother, "with all due respect, we came here to talk to your brother. He is the name whispered amongst the beings therefore, he is the one that really needs to decide on this matter."

Elijah shook his head, "on the contrary….." whatever Elijah intended to say was lost as the door to the study opened and in walked Caroline. Four pairs of eyes, the werewolves just stood in awe at her, Elijah gave her a nod and raised his glass to her in approval, and Klaus just had his jaw open, staring at her in wonderment. Elijah moved forward this time shaking his head, "ah Caroline, pleased that you have joined us. Brother, would you mind picking up your jaw from the floor and introduce dear Caroline."

Klaus glared at his brother but did as he asked, reaching out his arm for Caroline to move closer to him. "The crescent wolf clan alpha and beta, Jackson and Oliver, meet Caroline, my," smirked, "trusted adviser."

Caroline lifted a brow and hid a grin before turning to the werewolves, "I really am delighted to meet you, I haven't encountered a lot of werewolves. I would like to learn more about your kind if you are willing to share your history," clapped her hand, "but alas, now is not the time, dinner is ready may you join us as our honored guests?"

Jackson and Oliver looked at one another then Jackson looked at Klaus who just shrugged, "come on guys, it's just dinner, we would want to disappoint the lady after all, do we?"

Klaus offered his arm to Caroline who readily hooked her arm and they proceeded to step out of the study, followed by Elijah and after a moment of hesitation, Jackson and Oliver followed.


All in all it was a successful dinner, the werewolves were just as distrustful as Elijah was but in the end they agreed to another meeting the day after to thresh out the stipulations the werewolves may have, if Elijah so decides that they merit a representation in the alliance.

Caroline had been under the covers of the bed reading a book about of all things werewolves. Klaus had put on sweats but opted to be shirtless in an effort to distract Caroline. Unfortunately for him, she was lost in her book of inaccurate information about his kind, he was half wolf after all. As he tried to distract her by putting two fingers on her arm to distract her, she swatted his arm away. "I'm trying to read here, if I will be any help at all. I need to learn more about other supernaturals starting with wolfs and their legends."

Klaus grabbed the book from her, "I don't see how an inaccurate account of wolves is going to help you at all, not if you could hear it from the source. Who better than me to tell you about it."

Caroline exhaled, "I'm serious Klaus, if I am going to be here, with you and your family, I need to start educating myself about well, what to expect. It's part of what I need to do, for myself. To give me a purpose for being here. And don't start with," making air quotes, "you're my Queen and that my role is to stay by your side. If you know me at all, you would know that I'm a control freak, a neurotic control freak, I just need to know these things. It's how I am."

Klaus smiled at her, it was a different smile, a smile that came from the depth of his soul. "I know, not only about your control tendencies, how your mind works. I know everything about you, or at least I want to," grabbing her hand to twine them together, "all I am saying is, you don't have to always look elsewhere for information, you can just ask me. I will share everything with you." Looking at her eyes, "I would have thought including you in the discussion earlier with the wolves would have told you that."

Caroline leaned into him, placing her head on his shoulder, "believe me, I appreciated that. It made me nervous, but I really was grateful for what you did. I know this is also new for you, opening up, sharing, letting someone in outside of Elijah in important meetings like earlier."

Klaus embraced Caroline, locking her inside his arms, "you will be my Queen, as much as my instincts are to keep you hidden and protected, you need to get into this with both eyes open, so when you're ready, there will be absolutely no doubt in your mind. We are both adjusting today for an eternity tomorrow."

Caroline turned her head around to kiss Klaus tentatively until everything suddenly became hot and heavy with Klaus turning Caroline fully around to face him, kissing her neck eliciting a moan from her. He slipped the straps of her negligee off as he continued to kiss her between her breasts his hands suddenly on her thighs which were on either side of his torso. He started to lift the bottom of her negligee slowly gauging her reaction to his ministrations. All he heard were more moans and a few of his name thrown in breathlessly. He succeeded in lifting her gown off her with Caroline lifting her arms up for him to slide it over her easier.

He cupped each of her breasts with his hands pressing them as he took in the rapture in her expression, he couldn't help but dive in and take her lips once again sucking her lower lip before kissing her deeper. His hand was now on the back of her head tilting it to give him better access while his other hand went to slide in between them treading it's way inside her panties and into her folds.

"Oh God Klaus!" she broke the kiss to look at him, looking into his eyes and deep into his soul.

"Are you sure you want to do this, I want nothing more than this. But I want you to be sure, I don't ever want you to do something you don't want to do."

Caroline places both her hands on Klaus' chest for a moment without breaking eye contact with him, then slowly brought her arms up to his shoulders, his neck then finally to his cheeks and smiled, she leaned in to connect her lips to his once again. Klaus did not need anymore encouragement as he quickly changed positions, putting her under him has he deepened the kiss then trailed kisses from her neck to her chest. His mouth finally found a nipple which he sucked while his hand played with her other bud. Caroline for her part slid her hands down and inside his sweats to cup him drawing a groan from him, "Caroline, I need you to stop….what….you're….doing…." grabbing her hands, "I want to do this slowly this time, we have all the time in the world."

They ended up making love until the morning until even he was finally exhausted. She was wrapped tightly in his arms as he finally closed his eyes.


Elijah had gone out early to check on the witch Monique, he wanted to see what she was up to. After the death of Genevieve it was important for him to keep track of what the witches were up too. Although they had Davina, who was still the most powerful witch alive, the witches were in fact without a leader, now would be the right time for someone to step in and take over from were Genevieve left off. He needed to ensure he had the alliance on his side, what with Mikael still out there and in hiding.

He found Monique in a trance at her place, but as soon as she sensed Elijah she went out of her trance to turn to him. "Elijah, I didn't expect you."

Elijah looked at Monique, "I just wanted to check on you, it is my duty after all."

Monique spread her arms, "as you can see, I'm quite okay."

Elijah walked around the house picking up a few pieces of knick knacks before putting it back, "you can always come to me for anything, I just wanted to say that," gazing at her for a few seconds more before nodding and walking out.

Elijah was less than a block away when he sensed him, "father, I can sense you, you can come out of hiding."

Mikael step a few feet in front of Elijah, "son, it has been awhile."

Elijah raised a brow, "not long enough, why have you come back?"

Mikael snorted, "the same reason everytime, but this time I will not lose. You know I can't believe you would settle back here in the Quarter, maybe second time is a charm?"

Elijah flashed to his father, "don't you ever learn, you will never succeed in breaking us apart, we will always choose one another over you."

Mikael nodded, "well I would be inclined to agree, had I not been here, summoned by your dear sister once before to kill that bastard. You are not so united after all. In fact, I don't see Rebekah here right now, I wonder what Niklaus has done this time."

Elijah shook his head, "you can try all you want, you will never succeed."

Mikael took out a dagger from inside his coat, "don't worry son I wouldn't use this on you, it would be pointless anyway. Now I think this," referring to the dagger," would be of better use if it's used on me, it might injure me or I might even use it to kill myself. Wouldn't you want that, but then again if I do that, I kill sweet Caroline, who I understand your brother is sweet on. Wouldn't that be the ultimate revenge. The one loss your brother would feel the most." Walking into Elijah's personal space, "all I have to do is kill myself to destroy your brother. The irony really, love is a vampires greatest weakness, to finally have the one weapon to put your brother down once and for all."

Elijah went to grab Mikael in anger but Mikael flashed away from him, pointing a finger at his son, "you really don't want to do that, you should be the first to ensure no harm comes to me," before flashing away.


Elijah, Kol and Klaus were once again in Klaus' wing of the compound, with Elijah and Kol both looking at Klaus who was trying and failing to control his temper, throwing glasses into the fireplace as he continued his rant.

"I will not allow him to do that, besides he values his new found life now to just throw it away by executing himself, he wouldn't do that," Klaus ended in a whisper with his back to his brothers staring at the fireplace.

Elijah squeezed his brothers shoulder, "we will not allow that to happen. We will find a way. We all know what Caroline has brought to this family."

Klaus rubbed his neck, "we need to find a way to break the binding spell, we have to unbind them. It's the only way. But unless you know something recently, I have never known anyone to break the spell. We need to find a way."

"Let me find a way to get in touch with mother, she might know something, "I will need a witch to help me, someone we can trust. Someone with a powerful bloodline, too bad the Bennett witch lost her witchy powers," Kol contributed.

Elijah nodded, "we can always use Davina and the ancestral magic here in New Orleans."

"I feel so helpless, I can't do this alone. I can't let him win, I won't lose Caroline, not now."

Whatever they were to say next was interrupted by Caroline who called out to them, Elijah and Klaus left the room and Kol stopped himself last minute with a pout, he was suppose to be invisible.

Caroline met Elijah and Klaus at the stairs, with Davina still at the bottom of the stairs, "I told Davina to stay back for a moment," glancing nervously at Davina then to Klaus then finally Elijah, "I asked her if it was okay for her if you compelled her, we found something important. But it has to be discussed in secrecy, so she agreed to be compelled to keep the information for the people inside the room when we discuss it. She trusts me."

Elijah glanced at his brother then at Caroline, "and she wanted me to do it?"

Caroline bit her lip, "actually she wanted me to do it but, if an older vampire gets to her they might be able to override my compulsion, so I asked her if it was okay if you did it. I wouldn't ask her if it wasn't important, I hate compulsion."

Elijah nodded, and made a gesture for Davina to come up the steps, but Caroline once again signaled for Davina to stop, "one more thing, I want Kol to also hear this, so maybe you can compel her to not remember Kol being present in this discussion? I thought we can have the talk in your room Klaus, so it's spelled," looking at Klaus.

Klaus smiled at Caroline in wonder, "you surprise me everyday love with your capacity to be a good planner and leader, by all means love," looking at Elijah, "brother, take care of Davina while Caroline and I talk to Kol."


"No! This is not happening Caroline, why would you even want this!" Klaus was enraged.

"It can work brother, let's just consider it for a second," Kol tried to convince his brother.

"I considered in for a second, and No, no way is it happening," Klaus shouted.

Caroline raised her voice to be heard, "I think it should be my decision, after all, it's me we are talking about."

Klaus flashed to Caroline grabbing her shoulders hard and looking into her eyes, "it's our decision, not yours Caroline, not just yours."

Caroline for her part placed her hands on Klaus' face, "we have the opportunity to end this now, we have to take it, it will just be temporary. The spell will be temporary, enough time for us to get a jump on Mikael, he won't expect this. I wouldn't suggest this if I did not believe it's the only option."

Elijah finally spoke from his perch by the window without turning around, "brother he will never expect this, Caroline is right. We have the element of surprise on our side, let's use that to our advantage."

Caroline and Klaus were still touching each other, her hands on his face and his on her shoulders, without taking his eyes off Caroline, he uttered, "leave us for a moment," Elijah and Kol looked at each other before nodding and escorting Davina outside the room, "ten minutes," Elijah told his brother before stepping out.

Klaus walked away from Caroline as soon as the door closed and looked out the window, "do you know what it is you're asking Caroline, we are not even sure if the spell will work, turn you human then turn you back again after we kill Mikael. What if when we kill Mikael you die to, who's to say that the binding spell will break once you are turned human. There are so many things that can go wrong Caroline. I can't risk it, I can't lose you."

Caroline embraced Klaus from his back, "you are not going to lose me, look at me." Klaus turned around to face her, "let me do this for us. So we can move on with our lives. If we do this, Mikael becomes human too, when he dies, it becomes permanent. He won't go to the other side, he will be gone forever. We have to do this. It's the right thing to do."

Klaus lunged in to kiss her deeply, with all that he was filling at this moment. Caroline could do nothing but tell him what he meant to her by responding in kind. He had his lips on her neck dipping her slightly but supporting her with his arms still around her. Caroline couldn't help but release a moan at the things Klaus was doing. The knock then opening of the door went unnoticed by both and it took Kol several loud throat clearings to finally penetrate the haze they created. Klaus took a moment before embracing her again and kissing her one last time on the temple. He then looked at Elijah and nodded.

Elijah took the few steps forward to touch Caroline's shoulder attracting her attention, he nodded to her and embraced her then grabbed Klaus shoulder to squeeze it, "it's a very brave thing you are about to do Caroline. Davina and I will work on the spell immediately," with one last look at the couple before he turned away and took Davina outside of the room once again. Kol quickly went to hug Caroline then did the same with Klaus before leaving the room too.

Klaus took Caroline back into his arms and grunted, "you are almost as stubborn as I am. Two days Caroline, give me two days with you, then we do the spell. I need to check on the spell, I just need it to be sure it will work, that you can be changed back to a vampire without endangering you."

Caroline captures his lips for a slow kiss then kissed his stubble, "two days."
