Sweet Dreams • Kol Mikaelson

Chapter Three

Weeks Later

Elijah's plan to lure Klaus to Mystic Falls worked, but my bastard brother in law hasn't shown his face. Instead, he had jumped into Alaric's body.

I did my part and did my best to introduce Elijah as a trusted character, most people besides Damon and Bonnie know him as the noble Elijah. But through this - I was soon discovered as Klaus' sister in law, which has done nothing but bruise my relationships with my friends.

I now stand in front of Damon, asking him what the bloody hell he was thinking when he fed Elena his blood in order to turn her into a vampire. "I mean seriously, Damon? She's not just gonna let that go!" I shout at him.

"Oh who are you to dictate my bad decisions? You didn't tell us you were related to Klaus." He argues. "Because I'm not. I'm married into the family, meaning I don't have that instinct to protect the bastard. And stop trying to change the topic."I retort.

"I'm not willing to loose Elena..I can't. She will be better off this way, you know it. I did this for her." He says. "Oh please, don't act like you are doing this for anyone but yourself. Do you realise what she is going to be put through because of you?! You need to stop acting on impulse and think clearly before impacting the lives of those around you! Do you think she will forgive you for this? Because I certainly don't." I hiss before vamping off.

I remain at my house for a while, drinking bourbon and watching TV.

I hear a knock on the door. Assuming it's Damon or Elijah, I sigh and get up. I open the door, only to be met with my bastard brother-in-law.

"Nik." I mumble, awestruck. I knew he would be here eventually, but I wasn't expecting it now. "Hello little sister." He smirks and I sigh. "What do you want?" I ask him. "I just wish to break my curse. I've heard that you don't want that to happen." He says and I shrug. "Because if you break yours, I break mine. And I don't particularly like the thought of an unknown part of me coming to the surface." I say, folding my arms.

"Well I'm going through with the sacrifice, and I have to ensure you will not stop me." He says and I raise an eyebrow. "And how is that?" I ask.

He brings out a platinum dagger. "Oh Nik, you know they don't work on me." I pout. "On the contrary, little sister, the silver ones don't. And I just got this platinum one as a gift, it's my new toy, I would like to test it out." He smirks and rams it into my chest.

I gasp out for air, staring into his eyes as the life drains from my own.

Hours later

I gasp awake, the dagger still in my heart. I rip it out and look around. I notice I'm in Alaric's apartment. I glance outside. The moon is full. "No.no.no.no.no." I mumble repeatedly under my breath.

"Oh yes." Katherine says as the comes around the corner. "You know what's happening, don't you?" I ask and she nods. "Of course I do, I've only been running for 500 years because of it." She says flatly.

"Do you even know what you are?" Katherine asks. "No, do you know?" I ask and she nods with a taunting smile that only Katherine Pierce could use in such a way it sends chills down an original's spine.
