Klaus's Pet Book 1

22

Klaus's POV:

We all sit down at the dinner table with the "guests" of the night.

Three witches are shackled and sitting on chairs at the kitchen table.

After a combination of compulsion and Freya's magic, we located three of the witches involved with the extermination company.

Freya put up a spell so no one can enter or leave the compound.

The shackles insure that they cannot do any magic whilst they are bound.

A neat little dark object manufactured by my youngest brother Kol.

I stare at Lorelei from across the room. She grips the fork in her hand so tight that it might snap in two.

I'd already informed her of the guests and that we needed to show them some...hospitality.

She was here so I could keep an eye on her.

As much as I'd love for her to take off to the bayou it isn't safe. She'd already made that argument and lost.

"As I was saying, if you would give me the information I'm looking for, there will be no need for bloodshed and you and your witch friends will leave here with their heads still attached." I say to the male witch

"I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about." He replies

This interrogation has been going around in circles and I watch as Lorelei clenches her teeth.

She's run out of patience and quite frankly, so have I.

Kol and Davina were all too happy to take Hope for the week whilst this issue is being resolved.

Rebekah had already killed two other witches when they had broken in a few days prior.

Hayley pointed out that this situation wasn't safe for Hope so we sent her on her way.

Suddenly Lorelei throws the fork she's been gripping and it lands deep in the man's shoulder. He lets out a loud cry.

I yank it out and glare at Lorelei.

I grab her by the arm and drag her into the foyer.

"What did I tell you?" I growl
"I'm sick of playing nice Nik! These people got me shot! I want them dead!" She snaps

"I understand that love but we need information and I can't get that if you are launching silverware at them." I say
"Oh we will." She says eyes glowing

I move and stand in front of her, blocking her path.
"Lorelei just listen-"
"No you listen Nik. We tried your way and I'm done. Now it's my turn."

She pushes me away and speeds over to one of the female witches and sinks her fangs into her neck.

I watch as she drains the life out of her in a matter of seconds.

The woman slumps in the chair, eyes open.

Dead.

The other woman screams and the man closes his eyes, a pained expression on his face.

Lorelei wipes her mouth with the back of her hand.

"Oh I'm sorry. Were you two close?" Lorelei asks sarcastically

She yanks the other woman from the chair and grips her on either side of her head.

"You tell me what I want to know. I can snap this bitch's neck before you can blink." She hisses

"Stop! Don't hurt her!" The man yells
"Then tell me what I want to know."

The man looks around for anyone to step in.

"No one here is going to save you mate. You better tell the lady what she wants to know." I say

He sighs and gives in.

The male witch gives us all the information he has, about the plan to take down wolves and vampires all over the world one town at a time. They'd been functioning under the radar until we found them. When vamps or wolves in the towns they hunted in caught wind of the situation they'd take off. One team would continue hunting while the other finished them off.

Hundreds dead.

He gives us their current locations and Freya writes them down then goes off to confirm by astral projecting.

We'd created this plan days ago before we'd caught them.

She comes back a few minutes later and nods.

The silence breaks when Lorelei snaps the woman's neck. She crumples to the ground.

The man lets out a pained cry.

"You said that if I told you you wouldn't harm her."
"Those were not the terms of the deal. I said I can snap this bitch's neck and I did." She replies

The man is overcome with grief for a few moments then looks around at all of us.

"What are you going to do with me?"

I walk over to him.

"You've served your purpose. As for the rest of us, we're going hunting." I say

I stand him up, sink my teeth into his neck and rip out his throat, killing him.

Freya takes down the spell and Lorelei Hayley and Freya take off to one location while Rebekah Marcel and I take off to the other.

Lorelei's POV:

"According to the information the now dead witch gave us, the witches should be in the woods over there preparing their next assault." I say pointing to the woods
"Let's return the favor." Hayley says

We take off and catch them off guard.

Hayley sinks her teeth into one woman as I finish off another. Freya snaps three of three witches' necks and they fall.

At first we think that's all of them but more appear from the woods.

Hayley and I share a look then both get on our knees and transform.

We decapitate and rip the others apart.

I hear Freya yell out in pain and gripping her head as one witch raises his hand and attacks from behind. I tackle him to the ground, snarling scratching and biting until he's a cold corpse on the ground.

"Thanks." Freya says

Hayley and I turn back and look around.

All of them are dead.

Good.

Freya tosses us clothes and we all head back to the compound.
