Chapter 23 : Wolves

Third Person POV-

Caroline is still in a daze, as she looks out on to the front lawn. What did they want? Why are they here? Fear starting to kick in, she grips Klaus tighter. As he pushes her back in and closes the door. They all stare, standing in the foyer.

"What the hell is going on...!!!!" Rebekah screams.

Elijah takes her hand "Calm down sister." He turns to Sophie "Take Marie and go to the basement, Stefan will show you."

"The basement, you mean I have to stay there. With her?" Sophie asks.

Elijah moves closer to her. "Look, you took upon yourself to knock her out and bring her here. Which was not planned. So to answer your question...yes." Elijah seethes.

Stefan comes up behind her and motions for her to follow, Sophie says nothing and turns around. Stefan grabs Marie and heads to the basement.

Klaus turns to Caroline, he cradles her face "I need you to go with Bekah. I need the both of you to go upstairs." He gets no response from her. Caroline is still looking at the close door. As if she can still see past it.

"Caroline...Caroline!!" Klaus gets louder. She finally turns to him.

Pulling him closer to take in his scent "No...I don't want to leave you. What are you gonna do? Fight all them. Nik...please." She begs. Falling into his chest. Klaus exhales and pulls her back, looking into her eyes. "Caroline...I need to make sure you and Henry are safe." He takes his hand and places it on her belly. Klaus leans down and kisses it, as if he is saying goodbye to his son.

Caroline moves back "No...don't do that. Like your saying goodbye. Please..." She whispers.

Klaus lays his head on her forehead. Elijah and Rebekah turn away, giving them their moment. Both feeling like they were imposing. Caroline closes her eyes "Remember how you felt, when you took me with you." She leans in and kisses his adam's apple. Sending shivers down his spine. "Caroline..." He says faintly.

"I want you to do it anytime we are apart and you think of me and Henry. I want you to take me with you. Promise..." She breathes.

Klaus swallows "I promise..."

"That way you'll never feel like your alone and we'll always be with you. I love you more than I can say." She whispers.

Klaus crashes his lips to hers and takes her in. Savoring his Caroline. He wraps his hands around her waist as he falls deeper into his grasp. "My light..." He whispers.

Elijah clears his throat, making sure they realize him and Rebekah are still close. Caroline turns red, as her and Klaus break away.

Rebekah is beside her and takes her hand. "Come on...let's go." She says to the blonde. Caroline turns and smiles at her, as they walk closer towards the steps. Klaus looks up at her, as they ascend upon the steps. He knows he would do anything for them, he looks at her as if it is the last time he will ever see his light.

"The witches are secure." Stefan comes back around the corner and announces. "Are we about to do what I think." he stands there looking at Klaus. "Well, one thing is on our side." Both the brothers turn to look at him. Stefan smiles "We have the anti-venom." He pats Klaus on the back.

"Bekah already upstairs?" he asks.

"Yes...sorry we did not give you two-time." Elijah says.

Stefan breathes out "Story of my life man, she knows how I feel."

As all three head towards the door. Elijah puts his hand on Klaus' chest "Wait." He turns to him "Don't ever look at her again like that, Caroline." Klaus turns and is about to say something when he is cut off.

"Like it's the last time you'll see her, I will not let that happen. We all have loved brother, but not you. Not until her, and I want you to have that , like the rest of us." Elijah staring at Klaus. "Do you understand!" He demands.

"Yes..." Klaus answers.

Elijah says nothing and grins. They open the door and exit the house, ready to take on the wolves.

******************************

Caroline is pacing non-stop. As her and Rebekah wait in the nursery. She grabs her belly, and closes her eyes. "Do you think...it will always be like this?" Shs says to Rebekah. Who is sitting on the sofa, she has not said a word since they got in the room. "I hope not...I want to be happy. That's why I wanted the cure." She answers.

Caroline comes over to sit next to her. Rebekah looks at her "That all changed with you and Henrik, I get to be an auntie now. I thought that would not be possible."

Caroline smiles. "What about Stefan? Do you love him?" Caroline asks.

Rebekah turns red "I never really stopped. I just thought I could never replace Elena." She puts her head down. "Do you think he is over her?"

Caroline smiles and nods. "Yes...all the things she said to him. It really hurt him, he fought for her. And in the end she let him down. When that happens, the love you feel turns into hope that you'll move on and find someone else."

"Is that what happen with you and Tyler?" Rebekah turns to look at her. Caroline gets up and moves over to the wall. She takes her hand and traces the falls, Klaus worked so hard on it. Making sure it was ready for little wolf. "Yeah, I guess I always fought for everybody. My parents when they divorced. Tyler...Elena..Bonnie. When your brother came along, it scared me." Caroline smiles thinking back to their first real conversation on her birthday. "It scared me to see someone so full of life, but so alone. All that anger and hate. I knew then was for a reason. He had been let down." She breathes turning back around.

"I turned my disappointments into hope, and faith. He turned his into anger, and paranoia." Then her trademark smile burst through. "So I think you good are for Stefan, he needs someone who will stand with him. He care for you. So don't worry."

Rebekah stands up and gives Caroline a hug. "You will be a great mom, and Henrik will have happy life. I know you work hard at giving that to him. Don't worry. Everything will be okay." Just then, they hear a scream. They both turn to each other. "It's Stefan..." Rebekah says.

While Rebekah and Caroline are talking:

Klaus eyes the wolf dead on, as Elijah and Stefan spread out. "Why so many?" Stefan says. Looking around to see a couple in the back of the house. One begins to growl and Elijah stands at attention, ready to attack. Klaus is looking out into the lawn, knowing that one they attack the first one. The others will begin to charge them.

"Are you ready...Once we start there is no turning back!" He announces.

Both Elijah and Stefan reply "Yes."

The black and white wolf gets closer to Elijah. He reaches out quickly and snaps its neck. The others begin to howl and run circling around them. Stefan falls on his back. As a wolf charges from his side. Turning his head as the drool from the mouth of the beast drips on his face.

He closes his eyes and hears a whimper, Klaus grabs his head. "Alright..mate" He says. Looking around to the other wolf, who has run over towards the dead wolf. Elijah is taking on two at the same time. As they bark and howl up towards the sky. As they get closer. Klaus and Stefan run over and stand behind him. All of their backs facing each other.

Four wolves are growling and snapping at the vampires and hybrid. As one of the wolves jumps, Klaus snatches his heart out. As the wolf hits the ground the others whine. Moaning the lost, the wolves become more aggressive. Three more appear, "We need to spread out. We are sitting ducks here." Elijah says. He takes off towards the back of the property two of the wolves on his trail. Stefan looks towards Klaus, when he stops him. "Wait" Klaus demands. Stefan stops

A white and brown coat wolf, walks closer his head very low. Klaus knows this is a sign of submission. The wolf drops to the ground in front of the hybrid and bows his head. Howling, sending out a signal to the others. They stop, Elijah takes one last heart. As Klaus tries to read the beast, Stefan is caught off guard by one last wolf. He is bit in the arm. Klaus rushes over and rips the heart out. Causing some of the others to jump back on defense. The same wolf stays in his place, head low to the ground. Submitting to Klaus. They all stand for what seems like ages before, the rest of the wolves gather behind the white and brown coat wolf.

Dropping their heads and submitting. Elijah walks over and catches Stefan before the fever sets in. Klaus raises his head and walks in front of the wolf. "Is this over!!" He yells.

He looks at the wolf "You will leave this house." Klaus says sternly. "Now!" He yells. So loud the leaves on trees shake. The wolf stands to his feet, but never looks in his eyes and turns. Heading down the path, away from the house. As they enter the house, Klaus looks out of the door. The wolves are gone.

"What the hell just happened?!" Elijah says.

"I don't know...I have never seen that. Even when me and Stefan met them a year ago. Searching for ones to turn, I don't like this. I don't like not knowing and not being in control." He slams the door shut. As Stefan's screams began to fill the house.

Rebekah and Caroline suddenly appear at the bottom of the steps. Relief on Caroline's face as she sees her wolf. Klaus smiles as he rushes into the kitchen, he takes out a glass and cuts his arm. Letting the red liquid flow in the glass. Rebekah is by Stefan's side, rubbing his hair. "It's okay...he's bringing it to you." She whispers. Stefan tries to smile at her. The pain taking over, as he sees Klaus in the entry way.

She takes the glass and helps him sit up. Stefan downs the liquid and passes out. Rebekah still caressing him. Waiting for him to come back to her.

Elijah is still pacing, he returns from the study with a book. Caroline rushes to Klaus "Nik..." she closes her eyes. He touches her skin and she feels relief. Klaus smiles into her hair. Her scent, bringing him back home. He turns to his brother. "What is that...Lijah?" he ask.

He takes a sit on the couch, Caroline walks over with him and tries to take a seat next to him. Klaus grabs her waist bringing her in his lap. She smiles looking down at him, as she begins to play with his necklaces.

"A book...about wolves and lore. I acquired it on one of my missions, about two years ago. It was an old church. I found in Europe, unique." He begins.

"You see, they worships wolves. The church had cravings and books on legends over the generations. It was said one of the cities descendents was a wolf but his was not the original, the pure one. It was said they had escape to the new wold." Klaus cuts him off.

"Have you been looking for my true father, Elijah!?" He demands.

"Let me finish...The legend says the pak will show themselves once, the true alpha has acquired the light. The light will bring forth a child, an alpha. One to rule with the original, to bring peace." Elijah stops and looks at his brother.

"It all makes sense. Everything" Caroline says. She gets up and paces the room. Putting the pieces together. "Don't you see. All the legends, they add up. They talk about a child. The light, the darkness. Peace." She rants.

Klaus stops all of them "This is ridiculous no evidence has been found, I looked everywhere for a shred of light on who my true father was."

"But did you truly look, my brother. Can you say, you left every single stone unturned. The parts about Caroline and her heritage, that we have learned. You never thought you could have a son. So why would you look at those legends." Elijah speaks.

"He's right, they all have riddles nothing is what it seems. Light, dark all have different meanings. You know this Niklaus just from the curse our mother placed on you. Don't you think, there could have been more to it. Why Mikael wanted you bound, powerless?" Rebekah finally breaks her silence. She feels better after seeing the color come back to Stefan's face.

Caroline walks over to him, she kneels down and looks at him. "The child brings everything we always wanted. Remember..."

Klaus cradles her face "My sunshine...always seeing the light."

She lays into his embrace "Nik...we can find out who your father was. Don't you want to know?" He slowly inches her back and gets up. Not saying a word to anyone, he walks out of the room. Caroline stands and turns to Elijah. "You're a good brother...you never stopped loving him. Even when he pushed you away." She says.

Caroline follows him and enters the nursery. "Trying to hide..." She smirks.

Klaus turns and smirks back. "I can't hide from you. Not anymore." He answers. Looking at the falls "I miss it...the peace it brought me." He says. Looking at the wall, he can almost feel the water spraying on his skin. Caroline walks closer and wraps her arms around him. Laying her head against his "Show me...what you fear my wolf." Without her asking. Caroline is hit with a jolt of power and she feels. His anger at losing a father, one he can never know. His worry, of losing control. His sadness and pain.

"How can mourn for something I've never had, A father's love." He whispers into the air.

Caroline opens her eyes and turns him around. "Hey...it's okay." She rasps.

"I hate that I never saw past the power. Elijah was right, I paid no attention to lore of love, mates and children because all I wanted was power. The father I knew, taught me that was weakness." He sinks down to his knees. Caroline follows as she sits upon him and cradles him. Caroline feels a tingle like she did, that night with Tyler and Hayley. A power moves through her that she can't explain. She arches her back forward a little. While still touching Klaus.

"Caroline..." He rasps out. Just as his eyes roll back. He feels something, he can not stop it. A beam lights up the room. Caroline's eyes light up, she tries to move her hands. "Nik...Nik..." She cries. Klaus is in a trance. His grip tightens around her waist. Then his head falls into her chest. Klaus is panting, as tears fall from his face. Caroline is rubbing her hands through his hair. The power she once felt leaves her body, Klaus suddenly moves. He stands bringing her with him. He places her on the sofa, as he paces. His mouth open. His hand covers it. "Nik...your scaring me. Say something please. What just happen? What did I do? What was that light?" Caroline starts to panic. "Niklaus...Klaus...Nik..." She begs in a whisper.

He stops and kneels in front of her. He places his hands on her belly. "Thank you...Henrik." He faintly says. He kisses her stomach and looks up at Caroline.

"I saw him...he came to me. My son brought me peace in my time of despair." Klaus murmurs.

"What..." She mumbles.

"The light it covered me, it filled me with warmth and comfort. Like...he wanted to stop my pain." Klaus smiles.

"I never felt anything like that before, he held me. And it just went away, everything I was feeling in that moment. It went away." Klaus lets out a nervous laugh.

Caroline smiles as tears fall down her face. "See...he loves you."

"He loves us." Klaus answers. He gets up and sits down on the couch, he looks at her as she stands. Klaus smirks as he removes his shirt. Caroline helping him with his pants. His layers soft kisses on her face as she comes back up and smiles at him. "Please love...I can't wait any longer to see you." He smiles.

Caroline looks at him with hooded eyes, as she unties the robe. Revealing her body to him. Klaus eyes turn to lust as he inches forward, pulling her to him. He kisses her swollen belly. As his hand take hold of hers, guiding her on top of him. He kisses her neck, as she moans.

He fills her as she throws her head back. He pulls her closer, taking her nipples in his mouth. He begins to move inside her, the folds of her bud moistening for him. She takes his fingers and sucks on them. He begins to pump harder in and out of her. "Caroline..." He moans. She looks down at him and attacks his lips. As the sounds of their lovemaking fill the room.

In the Basement
(Dungeon)

Marie grabs the back of her head. "You bitch" she shouts. Sophie waking up and jumping to defense. "Why did you bring him here?!" She says.

Sophie looks at her "You are working with Marcel, he stole from my family!!!" She shouts back.

Marie moves closer, Sophie moves back. "I'm not gonna hurt you damn it. We are gonna need each other."

"What have you done...what did you give him?" Sophie ask.

"I'm sorry about the amulet, it's gone. The power lies in a potion. A spell." She explains.

"What does the spell do?" Sophie sucks in her breath.

"Its makes him unstoppable, gives him the power of hundreds of witches. And you just activated the plan." Marie says.

"What...he knew I was meeting you. He told me, if you double-crossed me and he did not hear from me, he would take the potion." Marie explains

Sophie jumps up "What...he's coming to kill them, the originals."

Marie nods "They are the only ones left standing in his way. He wants power and he wants to be invincible like his maker."

Sophie runs to the door and starts to yell, banging on it loudly. No one comes, she sinks down to the bottom. Gripping her legs. "It's all my fault, I called them here. It was trap all along."

"Yep...you did exactly what he wanted." Marie looks and shakes her head.

*******************************

"I'm just gonna put this in the nursery and meet you in the kitchen..." Rebekah smiles as Stefan heads downstairs.

"Whoa...I'm sorry...sorry..." She says backing up. She squints her eyes. Trying to forget that as she opened the door. Caroline and Klaus were asleep naked, she never wanted to see that. She can hear them moving around in the room, as she walks away from the door.

Elijah smiles "See something more." He jokes.

Rebekah shakes her head "I have to remember to knock around here."

Stefan hands her some coffee and nods his head. "Yep..."

"How do you feel?" Elijah asks

"Great.." Stefan answers

****************************

Caroline and Klaus burst out in laughter as they head to their room. "Maybe I should tell them we ended up in there because you cried and had a moment." She smirks.

Klaus rushes up and grabs her from behind. "You will never tell any one that." He says bringing his arms around her. He starts to tickle her and Caroline laughs really loud.

She gets away and runs over towards the bed, Klaus vamps over and catches her again. "Or what...my wolf" She plays with him. Klaus raises his brows. "No more sex..." he smirks. Caroline laughs "I can resist you ya know"

"This body, no one can resist" he smirks. As he comes closer and brushes his lips against hers. Caroline pulls to him only for him to pull away. "Told you, now I am going to take a shower. With out you."

Caroline's lips get tight. "Mmm...I guess I will find another wolf" she starts to walk away. As she feels his arms around her, she smiles. He says nothing and just picks her up, as they head for the bathroom. (Hahaha)

The doorbell rings and Rebekah opens it, there is a man standing there. He is a little rough-looking. Long brown hair and a lot of tattoos on his arms.

"Who are you?" Rebekah demands.

"The Ulfric will know why I am here" He answers.

"The who?" Rebekah shoots back. By this time Elijah is standing beside her. He sees the man and offers to let him in. Rebekah scoffs. "There is a spell, if anyone means any harm. They can not enter the house."

As they enter into the living room, the stranger looks around. "I'm Royce by the way." He extends his hand out. Elijah nods as he sits and motions for him to do the same. Royce smiles "So it is true, very cold creatures you are."

******************************

Caroline is still beaming from the lovemaking this morning. She puts on her white opal dress, her favorite so far.

As she walks out of the dressing area, Klaus is standing there. He smiles. "I love that on you." He says. As he scans her body, the white dress flowing along her body. Stopping above her mid-thigh, as his eyes move towards the top of the dress. The small straps lay on her delicate skin. Her perfect globes protruding from the neckline just enough to tease him.

Caroline's phone ring's breaking their intense gaze, she picks it up. "Mom...is everything okay." Just then a knock comes at the door. Stefan peeps in "A Royce is here to meet you." Klaus scrunched his face. "Who?" He questions.

As he comes around the corner. Royce sees him and bends down, showing his neck in submission. Everyone looking on as they realize. This is one of the wolves from last night. "You may rise." He says.

Royce looks at him "Its an honor, my Ulfric. We have been searching for you. Then after we knew of your where abouts we had to wait." He says.

Klaus walks up to him and eyes the wolf. "Wait for what?" He says. Just then Caroline comes around the corner and Royce's eyes light up. He stares at her in awe. Klaus takes him by the throat "You look at her again like that and she will be the last thing you see." He seethes out.

"Niklaus!!" Elijah blurts out.

Caroline wondering what she has just walked in on, she walks over towards Rebekah who looks at her. Klaus tightens his grip as Royce follows her with his eyes. "You can kill me now, if you want. Seeing her...the light." He chokes out Klaus is about to put his hand through the wolf's chest but he feels her little hands on his.

"Nik... stop listen." She says. Klaus releases him as Royce struggles for breath. "Don't look at me like that, if you value your life." She begs. The man turns away.

"Forgive me Lupa." He says. Bending down and showing his neck, submitting to Caroline. Klaus stares at him. "Finish or your wish will surely come true."

Royce stands "You're the original hybrid alpha, we are your pak. We found you some years ago but had to wait. For you to find the light." his eyes cut to Caroline. "She is the light and the child inside her. He is the peace. All the clans can unite under you. You and your son are supposed to lead." He finishes.

Caroline looks at Elijah and then Klaus. "Ulfric what does that mean?" She tilts her head. Klaus smiles "Wolf...sweetheart." He answers.

"Alpha of alpha, no one is called that but you." Royce adds. "As she is your Lupa."

"She-wolf." Klaus answers.

"Name only given to Queens, as you are a King, my Ulfric." Royce finishes. Klaus no longer being able to contain himself. Vamps over to Royce "You did not gaze upon me in awe as you did her. Why...?!" Klaus shouts.

"Nik..." Caroline says.

He turns to her "You will not demand of me in front of this wolf." He demands. Caroline sees his eyes. She backs off, and takes a seat.

"Ulfric she is the light that remains after death, Many thought it was a lore. She was not possible. Please forgive, If you mistaken my enchantment of your Lupa. We come to submit to our Ulfric, our king." Royce pleads.

"We are here to help." He adds. Klaus looks at Caroline, he thinks back to what Naomi told him. The light after death, it comes together for him now. Everyone in the room already there. He releases him, and helps him up.

"Where are the others?" Klaus asks.

"Staying in a motel on the outskirts of town." He answers.

"Bring them to me...in two days" Klaus demands. Royce nods his head. As he heads towards the door. Caroline smiles at him. Klaus grabs her arm lightly, Caroline jerks back. Stefan stands in front of Klaus. When they turn to look at the door, Royce is gone.

"Don't you ever grab her like that!" Stefan demands. Klaus his jaw tight as he leaves the room. Caroline had already fled. Walking into the kitchen he finds her drinking a blood bag. "Caroline..." He says softly.

"Don't...you don't trust them. Especially when it comes to me and Henry. I know, I could feel it the whole time." she walks closer to him. "He did not give me any pain, when that man was near, nothing like he did at the party." She adds.

Klaus exhales "It's a lot to take in. I noticed that too. Plus the spell and what he said."

"Why did you say two days...?" Caroline asks.

"One we have to deal with the witches in our basement." He wraps his arms around her. "Two, I know my sunshine. She would not have her pak living in a flea bag motel. I felt your concern when he mention it." Caroline wraps her arms around his neck.

"The old shacks around the property." She says.

"Yep, I figure it will take two days to make them livable." He smirks.

Caroline kisses him on the nose. "Well, I have something to tell you too. My mom is coming in two weeks. So whatever we can get done and over we should."

"Why?" Klaus ponders.

"She is not too happy. Her concerns are overwhelming her. About me and you." She says.

Stefan peeks around the corner, and they both laugh. As Rebekah and Elijah soon follow. They gather around the table and break bread.
