His Love

Chapter 6

Tara's POV
A month had passed and my plan was going pretty well. I had been calm with Klaus acting like I was starting to be okay with him. I think he believes it too because he's taken me out to dinner given me more freedom. He lets me call my parents any time I want. I've gotten closer with Klaus's siblings. Kohl and I sometimes play on his Wii. Freya teaches me spells even tho I didn't inherit my parents gift. She believes that I might be a late bloomer.

Elijah and I have started reading books once a month. Kinda like a little book club.Rebeca and I have been having spa retreats. She wants to take me shopping saying my wardrobe is ugly and needs refreshing. I didn't pick the clothes.
School has been fun. Davina and Josh have become my best friends. We've hanged out around Klaus's mansion like house. Damon and I have also gotten closer. Josh still thinks Damon likes me more than a friend but I keep telling him we're just friends.

We all eat lunch together in the cafeteria. I guess you could say that we've all become a little friend group. Right now we're in the cafeteria eating lunch. "So,are you gonna ask Klaus" Davina asked. "Ask Klaus what"Damon brows furrowed. "We all want to go to this festival up town and I have to ask Klaus if I can go" I rubbed my hand nervously.

"You didn't even invite me" Damon held his chest appalled. "If Klaus found out you were coming with us he would never let me go. He would also probably punish me for having a friend other than Davina and Josh." I saw the Damon frowned putting a hand on mine  making a sad smile form on my face.We stopped staring at each other when I heard Davina cough. I blushed quickly moving my hand from Damon's. I glanced away from Damon looking at Josh smirking at us.

"Um, so yeah I will ask him today. If he saids yes I will text you both".After, school Josh drove me back to the house.I got out and walked into the courtyard. I needed to see Klaus. "KLAUS" I yelled looking around in the kitchen, the Cinema room and the bedroom. I knocked on his office door which was 6 doors away from our bedroom.

"Come in"I heard Klaus say.Marcel and Elijah were seated across from Klaus when I came in.
"I will talk to you both later" Klaus said to Marcel and Elijah.Both of them got up from their seats and walked to the door. Elijah stopped beside whispering in my ear "We're still on tonight for the book meeting right"?
I nodded and smiled as he walked out the door closing it behind him.

"So,what did you need to talk to me about,love"
I sat down. "Davina and Josh have invited me to a festival in the uptown district. I was wondering if I could......go" whispered fiddling with my fingers.

"No".

"But, Klaus I really want to go.You have had me go to school and home for a month now. I don't go anywhere. I.WANT.TO.GO" I argued. Klaus stood up towering over me coming around the desk. I backed up seeing his eyes turn gold."Watch your tone.You don't want to make me mad" Klaus voiced. I looked down to at his now clenched fist."Klaus I'm a teenager. I want to go out and have fun like normal teenagers. I've listened. I haven't tried to escape I've accepted that I'm yours. Just let me go to the festival" I pleaded.

"I'm sorry my love but there are people out there that might want to hurt you and I would rather you stay here where you're safe"
He raised his hand to my cheek caressing it.
"Maybe the next Festival we can go together .okay"He tried persuading. I smacked his hand away from my face and had enough
"You know what asshole. You might be an old man but I'm not. I'm a FUCKING TEENAGER AND YOU ARE A PSYCHOTIC LUNATIC!I WISH YOU WOULD DIE" I yelled at the top of my lungs letting all my anger out.

As I was done yelling I felt a hand at my throat. My body was lifted off the ground back against the wall. I grabbed at Klaus's hand gasping for air. I was losing oxygen and right before I closed my eyes. I heard the voices of Klaus's siblings.

Klaus POV
What have I done? I was thrown backwards into my desk with my siblings  rushing in. Freya and Rebeca went straight to Tara's body laying on the floor. While Kohl punched and kicked me in the face. Knowing it was all my fault I just let him hit me until Elijah came over and stopping him. I had let my anger get the best of me.

"ENOUGH! Kohl,Rebeca, Freya get Tara out of here" Elijah orders. I watched Kol carry Tara out of my office. I could see the purple bruise forming around her neck. "Really Klaus. She just wanted one thing and you simply couldn't just let her go. She would have been with Davina and Josh.They could have protected her. You're so stupidity Niklaus never astounds me. I thought you loved her. .You're gonna let her go to that festival and don't go see her. It's gonna take some time for her to forgive you for this" Elijah explained.

Elijah walked out the office slamming the door.I got up as my wounds started healing themselves. Frustration started building up making me throw the papers off my desk and break the desk in half. When I got done everything was a mess.

Elijah POV
I walked out of Niklaus's office slamming the door behind me. I had hope that my brother wouldn't hurt the most precious thing to him. We had all grown to love Tara. I understood both sides. I continued to walk to Niklaus and Tara's bedroom I heard the voices of my siblings. I walked in seeing Freya cast a healing spell while Rebeca and Kohl stood over her.

"Why would Niklaus do such a thing" Rebecca asked."Is she alright Freya?" I questioned.
I looked at Freya as she watched Tara.
"She will be okay. She's just unconscious. When she wakes up she might have some slight discomfort in her neck cause of Klaus. One of you needs to give her some blood". Freya walked out of the room.We all sat and waited before we saw Tara body began to move.

Tara POV
I woke up to a pain in my neck. I opened my eyes and sat up to see Kohl, Rebecca and Elijah standing beside the bed. "How are you feeling Rebecca asked me."My neck hurts but I guess that's normal after getting chocked" I said with a raspy voice. "I'm sorry this happened darling .You won't have to see that idiot tonight. He also said you can go to tomorrow's festival" Kohl smiled.

"I will help you pick out an outfit but first we must fix these horrid bruise on your neck" Rebecca glancing at the purple bruise. Elijah sat in the chair beside the bed. He took off his suit and rolled up the sleeves on his white button-down shirt. He bit into his arm leaving a long trail of blood on the lavish carpet. He looked at me and leaned his arm against my mouth.

I drank a little until my throat felt better. Rebekah walked up towards the bed moving Elijah out the way. "That looks better" Rebekah observed. "Are you hungry,darling" Khol asked. "Starving actually" I replied. I watched as Kohl and Rebekah disappeared in a blink of an eye while Elijah took the book off my desk.
"If you would like we could still have our book session. Just a tad earlier" he joked."
I would love to" I looked him in the eye.

We talked about the books and our opinions on them. As we were ending our discussion a knock on the door took our attention. It was Rebekah with a tray of food. I smiled smelling the aroma as she laying the tray on the bed.
"Thank you Rebecca this looks amazing".
"Thanks. I hope you like it" she glance at me eager for me to try it. I cut into the chicken with creamy Alfredo sauce on it and put it in my mouth. The flavors were melting on my tongue. I moaned enjoying the dish.

"I loved it. Could you make this for me everyday" I rejoiced. "Any day you want. I'm glad someone around here enjoys my cooking" she smeared looking at Elijah. Elijah chuckled shaking his head at Rebekah. I finished my plate of food and started yawing. Elijah stood up and Rebecca grabbed my plate. I laid down bringing the covers up to my neck. The last thing I heard was Elijah saying
"Goodnight".
