Trial and Error (The Fun Gilbert Book 6)

Chapter 7- Compelling A Douchebag

Jessica's P.O.V.

I shoot up in bed the next morning, clad in Nik's shirt with his body underneath me and take a deep breath. "What is it, Love?" He asks in his husky sleep voice.

"Lucien has Cami. Nik he took her for leverage because she knows he's the killer. You have to get her back," I insist and he nods getting out of bed. I watch him, unable to stop the desire I feel. Stupid hormones, I scold as Nik chuckles as he zips his pants and walks over to me.

"You do realize that I can smell your desire, right, Love? It's quite potent," he taunts and I push him away.

"Shut up. It's not desire, it's hormones. It also doesn't help that you always look like a Greek god so really, it's your fault," I insist and he smirks before kissing me and as soon as his lips touch mine, Cami is forgotten. I pull him closer to me by his necklaces, careful not to break them and Nik follows, stepping in between my legs. I smirk against his lips and speed myself so that Nik is sitting on the bed with me in his lap. I bite his lower lip, drawing blood and he opens his mouth in an effort to devour mine, but I stop him. Taking control of the kiss, I tilt his head back, deepening the kiss as my hands roam his bare chest and he grows beneath me.

He groans against my lips and I push my hips down towards him causing one of his hands to find my hip as the other finds its way to my thigh. He breaks from the kiss and kisses down my jaw to my neck. He finds my sweet spot and sucks on it hard, causing a loud moan to leave my lips and I know that if I didn't heal I would have a prominent hickey. He kisses his way up to my lips as his hands find their way under his shirt when I see flashes of Cami and pull away. "What is it, Love? What's wrong?" The flashes suddenly turn to Aurora and I groan understanding that Klaus is needed elsewhere if we are to beat our enemies.

"Cami is fine...ish. Aurora on the other hand is awaiting your return after her reveal so you should be going. Besides, I'm meant to be spending the day with Rebekah so I should get a move on," I sigh before climbing off him and heading to the bathroom. When I come back, Nik is gone but he's left a note apologizing ahead for whatever may happen with Aurora since she had kissed him yesterday. I push the thought of the two of them away and head outside the compound to meet Rebekah.

I look up from my phone expecting to see myself in front of the bar I was to meet Bekah at only to find myself in an apartment. I start to wonder how I got here when I remember Lydia showing up at crime scenes and bite back a groan before knocking, wondering who it is that's died. By the time the door finally opens, I'm turned around looking at the decor and wondering who the hell decorated this place and if they were blind. "Can I help you?" A voice asks, the voice of Lucien Castle to be precise.

That's when I realize where I am. His penthouse. Nik is so not going to be happy, I think before it hits me. He's working with Damon. I can use that to my advantage.

"Well being as you just came into town and found your way into the long opened slot of my boyfriend's best friend, I'd say you can Mr. Castle," I snark, pushing my way into his apartment. I take notice of the compelled detective Kinney as well as a scared looking Cami who I send a wink to. "My, my. Making enemies already are we?" I taunt, looking at him as he seethes.

"See I've heard about you. I have a few connections. Elijah's beside himself with anger that you could've killed Hayley with those wolf traps in the bayou, Nik was was worried of your plotting although since you have his little girlfriend I'm assuming you've upped your game, and then there's the murders that everyone knows you're committing. So imagine my shock when Damon came home to tell me of his new friend."

"I don't know what to tell you, Darling. I would hate to hurt you like dear Camille here although, I don't know if I have much use for you," he smirks and I feel my face turn to stone before he falls to the ground clutching his head in pain. I watch as he yelps and screams for a good 5 minutes before letting him go. He glares at me and I grin.
