Chapter One

"Caroline." Said a voice from behind her in a distinct British accent. She stood with her back to him knowing exactly who it was. The same man that visited her dreams every night since she became a vampire. "I'm getting closer. I can feel it."

She took a deep breath and turned around to see the tall blond man with piercing blue eyes staring intently at her. "I know." She spoke begrudgingly.

He smirked stepping towards her. "Come on Caroline." The way he said her name made her cringe. "You will be mine, accept it."

"I have accepted it, that doesn't mean I have to be happy about it." Her voice was full of venom. His eyes narrowed at her. "You're a monster."

Then his fangs were in her skin, and it hurt. One arm was wrapped around her waist pulling her towards him, the other in her hair pulling her head to the side. He pulled back, after what seemed like an eternity to Caroline, only to torture her more as he whispered taunting words in her ear.

"Just wait until I find you, if your blood tastes this sweet in a dream I can only imagine what it actually taste's like." She shivered feeling his breath on her. All of the dreams with him were always so real. Though technically they weren't dreams as much as a telepathic connection.

Caroline wanted to get her hands on whatever witch did the spell that bound Klaus to her. He was a monster and apparently whoever did that spell thought that a woman could change that. Caroline was very convinced that the witch was wrong.

From what she had seen of Klaus he was not changing, nor did he want to change. Too bad for Caroline he still wanted her. According to him he loved her, according to her though he is not capable of love. "The sacrifice will be tonight." He smirked putting a hand under her chin and tipping her head up, forcing her to look at him. "You will see, by tomorrow we will be together."

She shook her head. "In your dreams."

His smirk grew. "Always." He placed a chaste kiss on her lips.

Caroline opened her eyes breathing erratically shaking her head. She tried to stop the tears that were forming in her eyes from falling. All she ever wanted was a regular life, to grow old in Mystic Falls with a nice human boy. Being promised to an evil original hybrid left little chance of that, then again so did being a vampire.

When the dreams first started she tried to talk to Bonnie, but just couldn't for some reason. It was like when you were compelled not to tell someone something. So no one knew about her horrendous, soon to be, hybrid problem, though she knew nothing of their problems either. She hated how often they would just completely leave her out of the loop. Not finding out things until she had been captured and tortured was getting slightly obnoxious.

She knew there was something big going on with them, but she gave up on trying to get them to tell her things a while ago. Besides she had problems of her own to deal with.

Caroline was starting to understand why vampires hated witches so much, they liked to do things like this. She groaned getting up to take a shower, stopping to check her phone. There was one message from Elena, apparently Carol Lockwood got hurt and was in the hospital.

Everyone was always getting hurt or had some ridiculous thing going on. She took a long hot shower before trading her pajamas for jeans and a red t-shirt with a white jacket. Then she decided to head to the hospital to see Carol.

Caroline's eyes opened slowly looking around the dark room. "Tyler." She whispered at his unconscious figure. She began to pull at the chains on her wrists. "Tyler!" She called.

He groaned pulling at the chains that attached to the wall. "What the- what happened?"

"I'm not sure..." Caroline frowned. "There were witches and vervain and then I woke up here..."

Tyler suddenly put the pieces together. He knew exactly who had done this. "Damn it! It's Klaus." He snarled

Caroline's head snapped up at the mention of his name. "What?"

Tyler looked surprised that she didn't know. "Didn't they tell you?" Caroline shook her head. "Klaus is performing some sort of creepy sacrifice and in it he has to kill a vampire and a werewolf." Tyler paused, letting it sink in. "...And a doppelganger, meaning Elena."

"Of course." Caroline said falling back into the wall. If only they had told her what was happening. She could have stopped all of this. It was inevitable she couldn't run from him, and it frightened her to no end. Not that she would let anyone else know that. "Tyler, I am not going to let you die."

"Caroline, it's not yo-" Tyler was cut off by a loud noise.

Her head snapped towards the sound, her eyes filled with hope, and just a little bit of doubt. "Barbie, you wanna explain why your boyfriend is out there with a gun full of wooden bullets?" Damon asked as he entered the dark cave.

"Damon!" She never thought she would be so happy to see him. "Wait Matt?"

"Yeah, Matt. Whatever it doesn't matter right now. Let's just get out of here." He said breaking the chains easily. He grabbed her arm and started leading her out.

"Wait!" She stopped pulling Damon back. "I'm not leaving without him." Caroline said pointing at Tyler.

Damon rolled his eyes. "Alright, alright."

The things that Klaus did that night were terrible, and Caroline was thankful that she was not part of it. She had escaped. He hadn't found her and hopefully wouldn't for a while. She knew eventually he would find her but she hoped she would have some time.

After this day all she wanted was to curl up and go to bed, what she didn't want was to see him in her dream. Sadly they were kinda've a package deal.

"Hello, love." He spoke softly from the other side of the small white room. "I'm a hybrid now, almost everything went according to plan. Though the first vampire and werewolf I captured escaped." He made a look of distaste.

"Well isn't that wonderful." She sneered sarcastically. "You can go off and make a bunch of hybrids and leave me alone." It was a long shot, but she had to try.

He smirked and stood up straight sauntering over to her. "I am going to come looking for you, very soon. I just have to take care of a few things." He moved closer to her grabbing herhand and spinning her around like they were dancing. "It would make everything much easier if you just told me where you are." He said bringing her closer to him and stepping in rythym with the music in his head.

"I'm good." She said plainly. "What are you doing?" She asked trying to hide that she was smiling a little as he twirled her around once more.

"Dancing." He said with a wide grin.

She laughed and it was strange and she hated to admit it but sometimes these dreams with him weren't so bad. Caroline could see his blue eyes light up when he heard her laugh. Pretending to ignore it she cleared her throat to hide the contented sigh as he pulled her into his embrace.

"I love you Caroline." He told her.

"You are not capable of love." She replied as usual.
