Elena's fingers trembled as she clutched her phone, blandly aware of Stefan's green eyes watching her with precision. She shouldn't feel like this, she knew. But her new vampire senses were driving her crazy, and the taste of Klaus' pure blood left her wanting more. Even after drinking Damon's blood two days ago, she hadn't felt this way. She had felt close to the man she had fallen in love with, but never had she actually felt so intimate with anyone. Elena knew Stefan was watching them during Klaus' attempt at healing her, and he had seen the way Klaus had caressed her hair and the way she clutched his arm, but her feelings were driving her crazy.
She wanted more.
Scratch that, she needed more.
"Elena?" His voice was soft, and she faintly felt him tugging at her hand that was crushing her phone. "Elena, you're okay now. What's wrong?"
She met his worried eyes and willed herself to feel guilty for having these thoughts. She couldn't and she didn't. She really wished she did, but as she quickly pecked his lips and promised to see him the next day, she heard his heart rate pick up and his lips lift in a smile. She really loved Stefan, she really did but her craving for more of Klaus' blood was becoming unbearable.
What if he won't let her have more? What if he'll think she's crossing a line?
Whatever your name is, whatever you do
there's nothing between us I'm willing to loose
Without even realizing what she was doing, she followed Klaus' scent into the heart of the woods. She passed trees which carried his scent strongly, almost as if he was rubbing himself on them, wanting to be found by her. She quickly dismissed that thought and let her feet carry her to a medium sized trailer and stood in front of the door, stopping when she smelled the faint scent of Damon. It must have been the vampire hunters' trailer. But why would Klaus be here?
"If you need extra protection, give me a call. But don't forget, put one step out of line; hurt the vampires, witches or werewolves in this town, and I'll tear your heart out before you even notice."
She shivered at the threat, a part of her wondering why Klaus was even protecting the bastard. She heard a crack and the faint smell of blood, most likely oozing from a nose. He must have knocked him out.
Inevitably, as the door knob turned, she hid behind a tree. She knew it was futile. Klaus probably sensed her from a mile away. Closing her eyes, she heard the slow and steady beat of his heart as it neared her.
"I know you're here, sweetheart," He announced and stood directly ten meters behind her. "What I'm wondering is, why would they send a newbie to spy on me?"
Instead of stepping out from her hiding place, she snickered. "I'm not spying on you. But you should give me props for having the nerve."
She heard his rich chuckle sound through the woods, sending uncomfortable shivers down her arm. "Careful, love, you almost sound like Katerina."
There was the anger again. The heat overtook her vision, flooding through her limbs and licking at her fingertips. Faster than she thought possible, she had him against a tree, emitting another chuckle from him. She felt the veins around her eyes and the uncomfortable red fluid flooding her vision. "I am nothing like her."
Just call me if ever our paths may collide.
I want you to call me under these darkening skies.
whoever you love, whoever you kiss
The ones in between us
I'm willing to miss
"That is true. I cannot stress how much you two differ," He said, his eyes searching hers. There was an amused twinkle in his eyes which made her press him against the tree even more. "Although, you two do seem to never be able to choose between who you want."
