Chapter 6: "I'm not asking for a miracle."

It was almost sunlight. Klaus and Caroline were both awake, lying down on the hybrid's bed. He was holding her against his body while one of her hands traced his bird tattoos.

"I will," she said. "I'll stay, but you have to promise me that I will be treated right."

"My love." He said, bringing her face up to his "You'll be my queen, and I'll treat you like you've never been treated before. Like a queen, an empress. He kissed her, and she reciprocated. "I promise my love."

He hovered over her as he pressed kisses down her throat and said,

"I'll be king of this city, and I'll make you queen of New Orleans."

A few hours later, Elena and Elijah walked into the kitchen holding hands, smiling at each other when they saw Klaus and Caroline at the table, having breakfast.

"Good morning," said Elena. She was already channeling her inner Katherine this morning with the hair and the outfit.

"Good morning indeed, Elena," said Klaus, holding Caroline's hand. The blonde looked at him, smiling.

"I guess that means you will be joining us, Miss Forbes?" questioned Elijah, handing Elena her coffee along with a plate of food.

"Yes, and please just call me Caroline," Caroline replied.

"You should know, my brother does have a temper" Warned Elijah.

"He doesn't have one with me, right?" Said Caroline, looking at Klaus.

"Of course not, my love," Klaus said, kissing the back of her hand. Elena laughed. Klaus was putty in Caroline's hand.

Suddenly, the whole compound started to shake, and the lights started to flicker. Both Elijah and Klaus reached for Elena and Caroline to protect them. It was only then that they heard Davina scream for Katherine.

"Katherine! Help me!"

Elena ran to her room and found Davina in a fetal position on the floor, crying her eyes out.

"I don't know what is happening to me!" Said the witch. Elena sat on the floor and held her against her chest.

"It's going to be okay; we'll find a way, okay? We'll fix this."

Elijah got to the room, and Elena whispered:

"Call Sophie"

A little while later, Sophie got to the compound. Elena had given Davina a tranquilizer, and they, including Hayley, met Sophie in Klaus's office. The hybrid made sure to keep Caroline close to him so Sophie wouldn't even think of trying to touch her.

"What is happening to Davina?" Said Elena, demanding to know. Elijah went to her side, holding her hand to calm her down.

"She was one of the sacrifices for the harvest. We have to do the harvest every three hundred years to strengthen the relationship between us and our ancestors. Four young witches were chosen to be sacrificed and get back from the dead, but Marcel interrupted them before they finished. Three witches had been killed before Davina. She has her power and the power of the dead witches inside of her. She'll die; we have to complete the ritual."

"Why did Marcel interrupt the ritual? He couldn't care less about them." Said Klaus.

"My niece was chosen as one of the witches to be sacrificed. All of them were going to be brought back from the dead, but I didn't believe it. So I told Marcel about it. He couldn't save her, but he could save Davina."

"What do you need for this ritual to be completed?" Asked Elena.

"I need an ancestor, but in times like this, when all factions are at war, I can become one. I wanted to do this by consecrating Celeste's remains, but I couldn't. Somebody else beat me to it."

Elena and Elijah looked at each other.

"So you need another witch," said Caroline. "What about Klaus's mother?"

"That's actually a good idea, Caroline," said Elijah.

"Wait, what would that mean for my baby?" Asked Hayley, who was sitting on the couch listening to the whole conversation.

"Your daughter will be part witch. Making me an ancestor will also make all of Esther's living descendants New Orleans's witches as well. Replied Sophie. "If we're going to do this, both of her sons need to be there, and Hayley too. She's carrying Klaus's daughter."

Hayley looked at Klaus, and Klaus said:

"Alright, but we'll bring the body."

While Elijah and Klaus went to pick up Esther's body from where it was, Caroline went to Elena and Elijah's room, where the brunette was.

"What was that look between you and Elijah when Sophie said that the remains were already consecrated?" She asked, sitting on the bench of the vanity while Elena was making the bed.

Elena dropped the pillow she was holding, sat on the bed, and looked at Caroline.

"A while ago, Tyler came here, kidnapped Hayley, and was able to prove that Klaus could make hybrids by using his baby's blood, which he actually didn't want to know because he said he would never do that to his kid; he doesn't want to be his father. And after Elijah suggested otherwise, Klaus bit him, but since originals are immune to werewolf venom, he didn't die, but he hallucinated and had visions of Celeste."

"So you're jealous?"

"No, I know he had women before me. I just had a feeling that I saw her somewhere; there was something about her, you know. And when Sophie said she couldn't consecrate her remains, I thought of that spell that Klaus had done when he first showed up, in Alaric's body."

"But that which was from 1800. Would that even be possible? Maybe we should call Bonnie."

"No Care. I don't want to drag her into this, especially not after everything I made her go through." Elena was interrupted by Marcel shouting from the first floor for Klaus.

Caroline and Elena went to him.

"Marcel," Elena said. "This is Caroline Forbes, my former doppelganger best friend, and Klaus's new girlfriend."

"Kath, please tell me that they are not doing this; please tell me that they don't plan on killing Davina." Marcel said, completely ignoring Caroline.

"I didn't want this either, but I don't want her to get hurt, Marcel. She can't contain this much power anymore."

"Marcel, this is not the way to treat a lady," Klaus said, arriving back at the compound with Elijah. "You should've said hi to my girl and your future queen."

"Klaus, it's okay; he is worried about his friend." Said Caroline, looking at the hybrid, who immediately fell back.

"Marcel, none of us is particularly amused by how things are going, and we most definitely did not want to follow through with the harvest, but there is no way out." Said Elijah.

A thunderstorm started to form in the previously sunny sky. The vampires ran inside. Sophie texted Klaus. Everything was ready.

Near the cemetery, at nightfall, Elijah and Klaus, followed by Elena, Caroline, and Hayley, brought Esther's body in a coffin. Sophie was waiting for them. They laid her coffin on the ground and removed her body. Klaus and Elijah went to stay beside Caroline and Elena while Sophie recited the incantations over the original witch's body.

Little did they know that Sabine was siphoning all of that power to herself from a crypt.

After the ceremony, Elena went with Sophie to where Davina would be sacrificed, while Klaus, Caroline, and Hayley came back to the compound.

"Elena, where are you going?" asked Elijah when Sophie was far away from them.

"I can't leave her alone, Elijah," Elena said.

"I'll go with you," he said.

They followed Sophie to where the harvest had happened. Marcel was there with Josh. Elena went to stand in front of Davina, hugged her, and said:

"I'll find a way to bring you back, Davina."

"I know who you are," said Davina, crying. Thank you for everything."

Elena started to cry. Both of them were holding each other up.

Sophie approached them and said

"Our magic fades as our ties to our ancestors weaken over time. We beseech them, and we accept this offering as a sign of our faith. To be born, you must sacrifice. Do you have faith?"

"I do," said Davina, between tears. Sophie cut her neck open, and Davina fell onto Elena's arm. Elena's tears were falling into Davina's hair, and she slowly died in the vampire's arms.

"I love you," Davina said weakly.

"I love you too. I'm going to bring you back, I promise," Elena said.

With the help of Josh and Marcel, Elijah and Elena buried Davina. Coming back to the compound, Elijah brought Elena to their room. Elena was still crying.

"I told her I'd find a way to fix this, but I couldn't." She said this after he sat her down on the bed.

He kneeled down in front of her, wiping her tears with his thumbs.

"We're going to find a way, my love. It's going to be okay."

"I failed her, just like I failed Jeremy. I couldn't protect either one of them!"

"Hey, I'll have none of that, Elena. You didn't fail Davina, and you certainly did not fail your brother. You couldn't control the circumstances my love, and you shouldn't have to."

"Please, don't let me fall again, Elijah" She said this, holding his face.

"Never, my love. I love you. " He said that, looking at her. A warm feeling washed over her. Like she belonged and she'd never be lost again, like she had finally been found.

"I love you. "She said, kissing him briefly.

Elijah helped Elena shower and wash away Davina's blood from her body. He changed her into her pajamas and changed clothes as well. They lay on the bed, and Elijah held her close to his body while she was crying silently for Davina and Jeremy, and he kissed her tears away.

"Well," said Caroline back in Klaus's bedroom, where the hybrid was making space for her to put her things. She had been on a call with her mom, trying to explain at least part of what was happening and that she needed a few things sent out. Liz Forbes was not too happy to know her daughter was now dating Klaus Mikaelson. "This is not how I imagined my official first night in New Orleans to be like."

"And how did you imagine it, my love?" He asked.

"Oh, you know, a hybrid one day left a voice mail on my phone telling me he wanted to show me New Orleans, and funny enough, he hasn't." Klaus was in front of her in a heartbeat, smiling.

"Oh, my love, there is a place I can show you right now."

Klaus grabbed Caroline's hand, and they both went to his car. Klaus drove to a part of the city Caroline hadn't seen yet. As soon as they got to where he wanted, Klaus turned to her and said:

"Close your eyes, my love."

Caroline smiled and closed her eyes.

Klaus opened her side of the car and carried her to the place he wanted.

After putting her on the ground, he said:

"Open your eyes."

Caroline could barely believe her eyes. They were on top of a waterfall, and they could see what felt like the world. The sky was clear, and the stars shone really bright.

"Klaus, this is... beautiful." She said.

"It is, but I'd argue that my queen is so much more" He said. "No beauty in the world can compare to you, my love."

"Elena was right." Caroline said, getting closer to him and putting her hands on his chest. "She said I'd know what it feels like to be treated like a woman if I gave you a chance."

"I'm starting to like your friend." He said this while smiling, closing the distance between them, and kissing her. Klaus stood behind Caroline, and he wrapped his arms around her, planting soft kisses down her neck as his hands ran up and down her body. Their passion was undeniable, and it was overflowing. Klaus started exploring Caroline's body, and his hands moved down her inner thighs, teasing and tantalizing her with his touch.

He continued kissing Caroline as his fingers found their way to her wet slit, and he teased her clitoris with a gentle but persistent pressure. His touch felt divine, and Caroline could feel her pleasure rising with every stroke. Klaus began to move his fingers in a circular motion, pushing her towards orgasm.

Klaus's eyes never left Caroline as her pleasure intensified, and when her body was shaking with bliss, he moved his mouth to hers, and the two of them melted into a passionate kiss as they shared the incredible moment together.

Caroline's pleasure was beyond anything she had ever experienced before, and it was a direct result of Klaus' passionate touch and his love for her. When the intensity of her orgasm leveled off, Caroline was in another realm, feeling entirely refreshed and whole. Standing atop that waterfall with Klaus by her side, Caroline realized how powerful love could be.

Caroline turned around and forced him to the ground, kissing him and straddling him. Her hair created a curtain around their faces, shielding them from the world. Klaus ran his hands down her legs, since she was wearing a skirt now. Caroline opened his pants and freed him.

"How naughty are we?" Klaus said, smiling as he realized once again that Caroline was not wearing anything under her skirt.

"I thought you'd appreciated it, my love," she said, whispering in his ear. Klaus groaned at her use of the nickname he used for her. She slowly rode his hard dick, and it felt better than anything she had ever felt before. Knowing that Klaus was close to his limit, she opened her eyes wide with desire, and Klaus threw his head back, thrusting wildly into her.

She rode him with an intensity that he had never experienced before, her orgasm moving closer and closer with each thrust. He grasps her hips as she pushes him to the rhythm of her own desire. They start to move faster and faster, and she can feel the tension building up in her body. With each thrust, she could feel him getting closer and closer, and the sensation was dizzying. She shudders with pleasure as his thrusts become more forceful, and she wraps her legs tightly around his body. She moans and shivers as his hands massage her clitoral area and send waves of pleasure through her body.

Her hands grip his hair as she starts to feel her orgasm approaching. She cries out his name and holds him close as wave after wave of pleasure washes over her. Klaus pulled her tight, and a flood of heat overwhelmed them as Klaus spilled his essence with a deep roar. The earth seemed to move with them, pushing them towards more pleasure, and as Caroline rode Klaus for the last time, their bodies melded together in an intimate embrace, the moment lasting forever.

Klaus hugged Caroline, needing to feel her close to him, while she nestled herself in his arms.

"Oh, my love," he said. "I'm so happy you're here with me."

"I'm happy too." She says, bringing his face closer to him and kissing him briefly.

Meanwhile, in the cemetery, Sabine walked in. Three witches were waiting for her, as they were summoned by her. Papa Tunde, Bastianna, and Genevieve

"Welcome back." Sabine said. "I summoned you because I need your help. I need you to help me take down Klaus Mikaelson."
