His Obsession

Chapter 13

As Elena stood over the little boy, she could help but think whether or not he had a family, someone who loved him.

If he did, she had taken him away from them just like Klaus had taken away everything from her. He had taken Jenna, her freedom, and even her unborn baby.

She knew that deep down it was all her fault, not Klaus's. She was the one to run from Klaus despite the warnings from Katherine, she was the one to lead Jenna into danger, and she was the one to kill her child, not Klaus.

She did all of those horrible things single-handedly and still tried to blame Klaus, but she wouldn't be wrong if she said that Klaus was the root of her problems.

She laughed bitterly at the time where she used to believe that she was in love with that monster.

Now that she was a vampire she could recall every single moment, specifically the memories he had compelled away.

Flashback

Klaus watched Elena as she slept peacefully in her new room he had gifted her the night before.

The walls had been painted gray, the furniture was all white, and an antique chandelier hung from the ceiling.

Elena was more like Tatia than Katherine ever was, but in many ways, Tatia and Elena were different. For one, Tatia wouldn't have lasted as long as Elena has.

Tatia would have run and gotten killed in the process as she had done years ago.

Elena slowly opened her eyes. He quickly noticed her red eyes, no doubt caused by crying over her family that she had thought were dead... then he felt it.

The guilt.

Just what was this doppelgänger doing to him?

"Klaus?"

Klaus chuckled quietly, knowing what she had wanted from him. What he had conditioned her to want from him.

"Good morning, love."

Elena gave a small smile at the sound of his voice, it always seemed to ignite something in her.

"Please?" Elena asked, starting to sit up on the bed.

"Please what?" Klaus responded.

Just as he knew what she wanted, she had known what he had wanted.

"Can I have..." Elena's words died in her mouth.

Something was trying desperately to stop her from saying those words.

The smell of Klaus's blood immediately caught Elena's attention. Her eyes went straight to the wound, quickly forgetting about the unknown force stopping her.

"Your blood." Elena breathed.

She felt her mouth begin to water, desperate to get his blood.

Klaus smirked before offering Elena his arm. Elena grabbed his arm and quickly attached her mouth to the wound that had already begun to heal.
