Rose - A Klaus Mikaelson Fanfic

Chapter 27

Chapter 27

 "He said every time he kills a vampire, it spreads." Jeremy said looking over at Klaus. "Klaus let him go home. Please." I whispered still staring at the sketch. I placed it down on the table and walked towards Jeremy. "Jer, go home." I compelled him. "Take him home, make sure he's safe, keep him alive at all costs and come right back." Klaus ordered one of his hybrids. I stared at the Connor who was still tied up with a sad look planted on my face. 

 "Rosalie!" Klaus ordered and I spun around and saw the angry look planted on his face.  "Come." He said and I bit at my lip anxiously as I followed him out of the room. 

 "How have you seen that tattoo?" Klaus asked as he walked towards me. I stepped back slightly intimidated, tripping slightly and falling down into a chair behind me. "Where did Stefan and Rebekah go?" I asked quietly. "Home. Now are you going to tell me or not?" Klaus asked annoyed. "Its a part of my past I really rather not look into again." I gulped and Klaus towered over me. "Tell me." He compelled but failed miserably. "You were actually trying to compel me?! Wow, Niklaus. Thats low, even for you." I said getting up and pushing I'm out of the way as I sped towards the front door.

 STEFAN POV

 "I buried him. Even after everything. I laid him to rest in the place where we would be married. What kind of hopeless fool does that?" Rebekah said with a slight chuckle. Her eyes were full to the brim with tears as she stood in front of me preaching about how she couldn't tell her brother where the sword was. And here I was, stabbing her in the back, making her tell me where it was for Klaus. For Elena. For me. "Ohh." Rebekah breathed with wide eyes. "But thats what you wanted to know, isn't it? Because I buried him with his sword!" She said annoyed as she ran a hand through her hair. I looked away, ashamed with my cunning way of finding out the information. The noise of heavy shoes against the floorboards walked around the corner, behind Rebekah where Klaus had been listening in on our conversation. "Im sorry, little sister, but you're right." Klaus said and Rebekah inhaled deeply, annoyed with herself that she had let her guard down to me. She spun around to see Klaus holding a dagger and a pot of white oak ash which would but her to sleep. "You really are a hopeless fool." He said shaking his head. She sped towards the door, only for me to block her way and she looked at me panicked, the feeling of betrayal you could see in her eyes. "Im sorry, Rebekah." I apologised.

 She shook her head and turned to her brother, tears pouring out of her eyes. "Go right ahead. Laugh at the girl who loved too easily. But I would rather have lived my life than yours, Nik. No one will ever sit around the table telling stories about a man who couldn't love. As soon as Rosalie realises she's too good for you, she will leave, because you don't love her, Nik! You're incapable of loving anyone. You love that you can have someone who loves you, to do your dirty work! So, do it. Look me in the eye and do it, you coward." A single tear fell out of Klaus' left eye. "DO IT!" Rebekah screamed and then suddenly, the dagger was in her heart, her face turned grey, then her neck, arms, hands and legs. She was asleep. Klaus laid her on the ground. 

....

 "I have a plane waiting. I'll get the sword. My hybrids will keep an eye on Connor, you put Rebekah somewhere no one will find her, and make sure Jeremy forgets everything he heard today." Klaus said as he pulled out the Gilbert ring and handed it to me. "I'll take care of it." I said pushing the ring into my pocket. "No one must know about the cure, do you understand? Not Damon, not Elena. If this gets out, it could mean all our deaths, so if you tell anyone, I will erase each and every memory from all of you-" I cut him off. "I wont say anything." I promised. "Its just you and me in this Stefan. Some secrets are stronger than family." I raised an eyebrow. "What are we going to do about Rosalie?" I asked him. "I don't want you telling her anything. She's going to be on a mission to find Rebekah while I'm gone, they grown rather close. If she asks you, you don't know anything. All she's going to know is that I've gone to find more information on the sword. She doesn't wanna be apart of this, we aren't going to force her, but we both know Rosalie, she can only keep her mouth shut for a period of time."
