Her scream was still reverberating throughout the empty mansion by the time Klaus had grabbed her and brought her to his destination.

Caroline found herself in a similarly dimly lit room. The only light came from a few candles making it difficult to tell how big the room really was. The interior matched the rest of the house, antiques and Victorian design. There were a few pieces of furniture: a dresser, nightstands, art framed on the wall.

All of this only registered to Caroline in a fraction of a second because the next moment she found herself thrown on a rather comfy king sized bed.

Red hangings with gold trim. Her brain snatched on random details.

She felt her hand being pulled upward and then something against her wrist. Caroline looked up and saw her right hand handcuffed to the headboard while Klaus was finishing with her left.

Then he turned to look at her with a smile and the look in his eyes made the reality of her situation hit her all at once. Her breathing accelerated, heart beating hard while something twisted and coiled in her stomach. Oh god, this was really happening wasn't it?

Klaus leaned down and skimmed his nose over the side of her face as if smelling something delectable.

"Mmm" he exhaled. Sweet breath blew over her face, the scent intoxicating her nose.

He nuzzled into the hollow of her neck, tracing butterfly kisses up to her jaw and then down again. Finally, he reached her lips.

Caroline felt electricity race down her spine, sparks fizzing in her nerve endings. Her mind forgot about everything else, lost in the sensation of his soft yet demanding lips. Her eyes closed involuntarily and she felt a blush rise to her cheeks turning them into a delicate pink.

Finally, Caroline regained the presence of mind to turn her head away and break the kiss. Klaus chuckled lowly.

"You know, I'm not sure if I can even give you up after tonight." His eyes took on a mischievous glint. "I might just have to keep you."

Caroline turned back to him apprehensively but there was a spark of defiance in her eyes.
"Not gonna happen."

He flashed the devilish smile again. "Deny all you want dear, but before tonight is over, you will submit to me."

And before Caroline had a chance to reply, Klaus suddenly ripped her shirt off, the buttons popping open.

Caroline gasped. It shouldn't have surprised her. When you were as old as Klaus was, and as rich, you wouldn't really care about such small things as clothes. Not when you could always buy a hundred more.

He ripped her skirt off too and Caroline found herself lying there naked except for her bra and panties. More blush colored her face.

He skimmed the fingers of one hand down her stomach. The touch sending tingles underneath her skin. His hand traveled lower and Caroline locked her knees together.

Klaus smiled at her feeble attempt and easily pried her knees apart, then settled himself between them, making it impossible for her to close her legs.

Klaus looked up at her face and something in her expression made his eyes darken, glowing with lust and need. He kissed her again but this time more forcefully, his tongue pushing against her lips for access. When she denied it, his hand reached inside the front of her panties and with one finger, caressed her slit. Caroline gasped, and Klaus took advantage of the action by pushing his tongue inside her mouth. His expert tongue explored inside, brushing against the roof of her mouth, making her shiver. His other hand held her waist.

After a few more minutes his lips detached themselves from hers and traveled lower to suck on her neck, prompting Caroline to let out a long moan. Klaus smirked against her neck and continued leaving a few dark marks that would surely be visible to others. Claiming me, Caroline thought.

His teeth brushed over a spot on her neck and she just had time to think, oh no, he's not going to- before his teeth pierced her skin and he bit down hard on her neck.

Klaus drank from her greedily the feeling made her heady with pleasure. Bloodsharing between vampires was a very intimate thing and for this reason exactly. Caroline felt her mind flooded with bliss and knew Klaus was feeling something very similar.

So... it's not finished? Obviously the explicit stuff will come next chapter. I guess I just wanted to post something instead of waiting to finish.
