❝Klaus Mikaelson was the monster one would tell their children, he's the villain in everyone's stories, but for me he was the prince who saved me from myself and I think I saved the last bit of hope within him.❞

Between everything that happened, everything that Elijah and Bodie said, Klaus was more sure that there was a chance that he fucked everything up. He thought that Bodie worked everything out which—he was somewhat right about, but Klaus didn't want to admit it to him. He wanted to know what Bodie was keeping from him and as much as Klaus wanted to trust that Bodie would tell him when his siblings were all un-daggered, but he didn't know when he would decide to do as such. He wanted to know Bodie's secret because he wants to help Bodie heal, he wanted to know what Bodie was hiding from him.
What hurt him the most was knowing that there was nothing that he could do while Bodie kept his secret, and he just wanted to help him. And as much as he knew that he was going back on what he said and promised to Bodie, and as much as he knew that this would hurt Bodie if he ever found out, Klaus had to do this, even if he hated the thought of Bodie's ex-girlfriend being here. If Cataline was a way to find out what that secret is, then so be it—as long as it aided him, then Cataline was a means to an end, an end that he'd happily take the life off if he can keep this all a secret long enough.
Despite the small feel of guilt lacing within his heart at the thought of how much this was eating Bodie up, he was beyond angry. Angry over the fact that Amis went to talk to Bodie, angry over the fact that Elijah and the Woodfords brothers went to figure more things out knowing that the three of them were involved in this just as much as he was. He was close of slaughtering the entirety of Wembley because of the amount of rage within him, but he had to stop himself because he didn't want to draw his father here—he couldn't have that, he couldn't, not when he just managed to shake his father from him and his siblings trail.
Currently, Klaus sat in both Cataline and Amis' house, the house that he originally gonna move both himself and Bodie in but decided against—he didn't want to make it weird if they moved in together. Not that it would be weird, given how long they've known each other, but he didn't want to make anything awkward or fast paced. God, if he wasn't beyond angry at the moment, he would've stayed with Bodie just for the warmth that he provides but given that he was in the mood to make sure that bodies drop, he decided to pay Cat and Amis a visit. He wouldn't kill them, not when they have use.
He was sat there for about ten minutes, trying not to get over aggravated at everything. If they were going to ruin his plans, then he'll ruin their lives more than what Bodie did, he'll make sure that he's their walking nightmare in this life and the next. Wherever they go, Klaus would be their continued nightmare which they cannot escape from.
He heard them then, walking up to the door, talking to each other about whatever of interest in their lives outside of what Klaus made them do. There was a moment where there was nothing, as if he were hearing things, and the next the door creaked open, and they came in. First it was Cataline who walked in shortly followed by Amis.
