Original Frenzy (A Vampire Diaries x Originals Fan fiction)

Meeting The Brothers

New Orleans was nothing like I imagined. The roads were clean and the people were friendly and very upbeat, making me smile whilst she strode along the street of New Orleans. The night soon came and the streets of the French Quarter were soon filled with music and people dancing. I giggle, and soon danced with some people that were following a tune from the nearby street artists playing a cheery tune. I switch partners and suddenly felt a pair of strong hands grip my waist, causing my breath to hitch.

"Elena Gilbert."

"Klaus." I breath out, watching him smirk deviously, still dancing to the tune with me.

"Hello sweetheart." He purrs, winking at me. "What brings you to my empire?" Oh right. He practically owns New Orleans.

"I needed a break from my watchdogs." I say, swinging my hips to the tune and continue dancing, trying to ignore him and his scary aura.

"Ah I was starting to wonder where your Salvatore brothers might be lurking around." He chuckles, making me roll my eyes. "Quite stupid of you to come here though Sweetheart. Don't you remember? I need your blood for hybrids." 

"I know." I say nonchalantly, causing him to quirk an eyebrow at me. "I'm prepared to supply my blood, but on my terms." I say, giving him a stern look which causes him to laugh.

"Elijah did mention you and your negotiating skills. You certainly are a Petrova, aren't you love?"

"Well then you should know how persuasive I can be." I say, raising my eyebrow at him. He dips me and pulls me back up, his mouth right beside my ear.

"Elijah's mentioned something like that." He whispers, his hot breath causing me to shudder. I pull back and place my hand back on his shoulders, as his get back on my waist.

"And where is Elijah now?" I inquire, making his smug smirk return.

"Why? Interested? Elijah's always been fond of you. Dare I say his feelings are reciprocated?"

"Elijah and I respect each other. And it's no secret that I care for him. He did try to save my life when you sacrificed me." I grit through my teeth.

"Sorry about that love, let bygones be bygones?" He says, smiling almost apologetically. I laugh, shaking my head in disbelief. Let bygones be bygones? He killed me! And not to mention he made Stefan become the Ripper again! 

"Let's see after we come to an agreement." 

"Fine. Now where are you staying?" He asks, pulling me from the crowd. I shrug and receive a curious look from Klaus. "You can stay at the Compound. Elijah, Kol, Rebekkah and myself will be staying there as well. It should be more safe for you since people here hate Katerina." He says, leading the way. I stop in the middle of my tracks and he turns back to raise an eyebrow at me.

"Um don't you remember? Rebekkah hates me! She'll kill me the moment I step inside the house." 

"Then let's just pray Elijah will be there to save your life again." He mutters darkly, making me glare at him.

"Home sweet home." Klaus says as he opens the door.

"Miss Gilbert, what a surprise!" I hear a brown haired boy that looks around my age exclaims. I would call him handsome, but I've met him and his cruelty overrides his looks any day.

"Kol." I say, nodding curtly at him. 

"Did I hear someone say Gil- YOU!" Rebekkah screams, pining me to the wall roughly with her vampire strength.

"Rebekkah!" I hear Klaus shout, grabbing her by the neck and throwing her off of me. "Sorry love, seems like my sister forgot her manners." 

"Manners? I don't need to show her any since she daggered me! You killed me, literally, and you'll find that I don't accept that quite nicely." She hisses, pushing Klaus away and grabbing my neck tightly, causing me to choke.

"Enough!" I hear a deep, authoritative voice say. I feel Rebekkah's grip on my throat gone and I slump down the wall only to be caught by someone. "Lovely Elena, are you alright?" The voice softly says, making me smile and my eyes open slowly.

"Elijah." I manage to croak out, causing his deep brown eyes to soften at my face. He carries me towards the couch in the middle of the room and places me softly, telling Klaus to grab a glass of water, which he does reluctantly. I drink the water and thank him gratefully, and look towards Elijah.

"Why have you come here lovely Elena? My sister wishes to end your life, and Niklaus wishes to drain you of your blood. It seems rather dangerous of you to come to the place where 2 people want you to suffer." He says, frowning slightly.

"I came here because I'm tired of the Damon and Stefan. They act as if I'm their pet, telling me what to do, how to do it and when to do it." I say, sighing.

"Well aren't you?" Kol sniggers, making me glare at him.

"No. And I am sick of causing so many people to die or get hurt, which is why I came here."

"You wish to end their suffering by offering yourself up so that you suffer? Quite foolish, if you ask me darling." Kol says, making me roll my eyes.

"Well I didn't ask you, now did I?" I retort back at him, causing Klaus to smirk.

"You said you wanted to come to an agreement. What do you propose?" Klaus pipes up, making me sit up.

"I'll give you 2 bags full of my blood each month for your hybrids, and stay here with you so you'll know I'm protected. But only if you promise not to hurt anyone that I love." I say, turning to see Klaus smirk happily. "And I will not be your pet." I add, glaring at Kol. "You will treat me as an equal. Meaning no compulsion, no orders, no nothing. I won't call anyone unless you or any of your siblings let me, and I won't try to escape. I'll follow your rules that ensure my safety but that's it." I say, crossing my arms in front of my chest.

"Seems reasonable." Klaus says.

"Lovely Elena, have you thought this through?" Elijah says, making my gaze soften and I look towards him.

"Yes. I don't want to cause any more misery, and besides, New Orleans seems nice." I say, causing him to nod.

"Fine, I accept your terms." Klaus finally says, causing me to nod.

"Give me your word." 

"I give you my word." 

"And I will vouch in the name of my brother." Elijah says, causing me to smile. 

"It's settled then. You'll live with us." Klaus says. 

"What!" Rebekkah finally joins in. "I am not having this wench live with us!" 

"You say that like you have a choice." Klaus sneers, causing Rebekkah to huff in annoyance and go out of the room.

"Since you're staying here, take your pick for your roommates. My door is wide open for you." Kol purrs seductively, making me grin mischievously. I decide to go along with it. I turn towards Kol and graze my finger up and down his arm and pout.

"Are you sure?" I say while I pout, causing him to nod eagerly. "I don't think there's any room for me seeing that you sleep with that mirror of yours." I say, laughing as I lean back in my seat and take my hand off of his arm. Klaus laughs loudly and Elijah chuckles, seeing Kol who's annoyed at my performance. But that quickly changes as he leans forward so that his breathe is on my neck.

"You say that now, but you'll jump into my bed sooner or later." He says, making me shudder. He smirks, and goes back to his arm chair. "I like her brother, she's feisty." He chuckles, making me roll my eyes. This ought to be fun.
