The Enigma: A Klaus Mikaelson Love Story {1}

Chapter 31: Die Trying

"Oh my god, oh my god" Caroline's continued panicking was beginning to get on my nerves.

I'll fix it" Tyler was trying to comfort her again and again, also getting on my nerves. I was seriously considering making them mute.

"How? Only his blood can heal me!" She said crying into her hands now.

"I know Care, I'll fix it" she nodded and he walked up to us submissively.

"Hello Tyler love, what brings you to my husband's humble prison?" I said grinning at him but he ignored me and looked directly at Klaus.

"Caroline will die if you don't heal her" he said looking down at the ground.

"Okay" Klaus bit his hand and outstretched him arm. I wasn't sure if he was giving up that easily, but I gave him the benefit of the doubt. "Beg" I smiled knowing I had made the right choice.

"Is this what you want? To remind me that I'm powerless against you? Fine. You win. I'm nothing. Now save her. Please."

"I'm sorry mate, I didn't quite get that." He turned to look back at me. "What about you Blossom? Did you get that?"

"No Nik, I didn't." I said smiling at Tyler.

"Please" the wolf begged.

"Please...?" Klaus continued to taunt me and it just made me happier, I revelled in the boy's weakness.

"Please save Caroline" he choked out.

"See, now I think you're just telling me what I want to hear. I mean, you did call me pathetic earlier. And wouldn't it be more pathetic of me to help now, knowing that hours ago, you announced your plan to kill me in a manner in which you're debating because you want it to have a certain amount of flair? I'm just asking."

"That is a fair question." I said looking at Klaus. "And Caroline also wasn't very nice to you earlier, I thought you were friends."

"I will do whatever you want." Tyler started. "I will even be your hybrid slave. Just save her" his continued pleas were starting to have an effect on Klaus. He was going to ruin everything.

"I quite fancy a hybrid slave" Klaus said smirking.

"No. Not good enough. I can compel him to do what you want. Watch this" I turned to Tyler and scowled. "On your knees."

"Nice try, but I'm on vervain"

"I don't think you're listening to me Tyler" I walked up to him and compelled him. "On. Your. Knees." Tyler's look of triumph soon changed to a look of shock.

"How did you do that?"

"What did I say about asking questions?" I sighed as I turned to face Nik. It seemed like I was the only one with an ounce of competence.

"It's because she's a—" Caroline cut herself off and started to choke.

"Cat got your tongue?" I said smirking at her as her boyfriend ran over to her.

"Caroline what's happening?"

"I told you, a cat has her tongue. Every time she tries to tells my secrets a cat takes her tongue. It's quite funny when you think about it" I giggled. "Now if you don't stop trying you'll choke to death, which is fine for a normal vampire, but one with werewolf venom, who knows if you'll recover."

"Take me away Ty, I can't even look at them" Tyler carried Caroline in his arms and answered her requests by taking her away.

"Ty is a funny name, isn't it?" I said looking at Nik who was glaring at me now. Twat. "It's a nationality, a noun, a name and a verb." Klaus was still glaring and I rolled my eyes. "Out with it. Why are you so grumpy?"
