It was now 6:30pm I got dressed and was getting ready to meet whoever this unknown number was.

I grabbed my purse before walking out the door and saw a black SUV outside

I grabbed my purse before walking out the door and saw a black SUV outside. "Miss. Forbes?" The man asked "Yes" I said confused "Good afternoon my name is Taylor I'll be your driver for the night" he said "Oh,you don't have too I can walk" I said "Nonsense Mr. Mikaelson insisted" he said and opened the door I hesitated at first but got inside the truck. Taylor closed the door and got in the front starting to drive away.

When we pulled up at the Grill Taylor opened my door and I stepped out. "Have a nice night Miss. Forbes." He said with a smile "Thank you" I said and walked into the bar. When I walked in Kol greeted me. "Caroline hey!" He said and hugged me "Hey what are you doing here?" I asked as we pulled away "I told you I'd see you again. Come on I got us a table." He said "Wait did you call me all last night?" I asked "No my sister did now come on" He said holding out his hand and I took it.

We walked over to a table with three other people. A blonde hair girl, and two men one in a suit, the other t-shirt and jeans. "Caroline these are my siblings. Rebekah, Niklaus,and Elijah" Kol introduced "Hey" Rebekah said "Nice to meet you love" Niklaus said I nodded and sat at the table next to Kol.

"So tell us a little about yourself" Rebekah said "Well um I'm 22, I work here, only child,my mom passed away,and my dad left." I said "I'm sorry for your lost" Elijah said "It's okay it was a long time ago"I said "Well do you have a boyfriend?" Rebekah asked "Nope. I had one,but it didn't work out" I said "Tell me about it men" Rebekah said Niklaus smirked at me. "I like you Caroline you seem different" He said "Thanks I think" I said "Our brother is a painter right Nik" Kol said "Well it's a habit of mine" he said "What do you paint?" I asked "Whatever you want me too" he said with a smirk "Sorry,but not interested." I said "Boom rejected!" Kol said "Kol" Elijah warned

"What is your type?" Rebekah asked "I like men who aren't a**holes like your brother" I said and walked away from the table out the Grill.

I heard footsteps behind me and when I turned around there was no one. I started back walking when I saw Niklaus in front of me in seconds. "What do you want?" I asked "First of all love don't bite the hand that feeds you. Second don't ever talk to me like that again" he said "Or what you can't tell me what to do" I said "Oh so you think love." He said with a smirk "Leave me ALONE!!" I scream punching him in the face before running.

I ran into the apartment and locked the doors. Maybe this is all a bad dream I need to wake up.

Next day
I opened my eyes to the sound of birds singing and plus a knock at my door. I sat up and realized I was in the same clothes from last night. I walked towards the door and looked through the peephole and saw two men I have never seen before. When I opened the door one of them smiled. "Good morning Miss. Forbes didn't mean to wake you" one said "I'm Josh and this is Nathan we are here to take you home." He said "Home? What do you mean home?" I asked he passed me a letter and I scanned it with my eyes.

Dear Miss Forbes,
You have been selected to be the wife of a King. Hopefully you won't let us down. Can't wait to see you in New Orleans you'll love it there. There's music and festivals you'd love to see in person. The king and his family are pleased to meet you again. These two men will pack your things as you know for Taylor is your driver he'll take you anywhere you want. You have a safe flight Miss Forbes and we hope to see you soon.

"What's this?" I asked "You are arranged to marry the king of New Orleans." Nathan said "What if I don't want to?" I asked "There is no option" He added and both of them walked into the apartment down the hall to my bedroom. I followed them I don't know these people they could be playing me. "I'm not going anywhere with you!" I shouted John walked towards me and smiled. "Put some clothes on and get in the truck" he said I nodded and went to change.

 "Put some clothes on and get in the truck" he said I nodded and went to change

I walked out the apartments and got in the truck. "Hey Taylor" I greeted "Good morning Miss I hope those boys didn't bother you too much" he said "Not at all" I said he smiled "Where to?" He asked "Straight to New Orleans" I said "Yes ma'am" he started the truck and we took off.

New Orleans
When we pulled up to New Orleans I stepped out the truck and so lots of people. "Welcome to New Orleans!" I dark man greeted "Thanks" I said "I'm Stefan you are-" "Caroline" I introduce "Oh, the King's Queen. I'm his right hand." He said "Do you know where the King is by any chance?" I asked "In his study last door to your left" he said I nodded before walking off.

I opened the door to the King's study and saw him painting. "Hello love" he said I was about to run out the room screaming. "W- What's going on?" I asked he turned around to face me. "Welcome to New Orleans" he said "Answer the question you bastard!" I demanded "Ouch, is that anyway to talk to your husband" my eyes widened now freaking way
