19Elena hands shook as she turned the next page. So many questions swirled in her head. Her new favorite question was, what the hell was Bonnie thinking?
Elena could not figure out was going down in Bonnie's head even with Bonnie's thoughts written in front of her. Elena shook her head.
"Bonnie had a past with Kluas ," Elena threw her head back and scoffed ," and she's trying to ease me into it."
Elena opened the book with a shake of her head, she was a bit hesitant reading it. Elena let out a breath of air before continuing.
"It was business." I told myself this repeatedly in my head. Even though we avoid the elephant in the room before we even got down to the business. I can't say I tried Elena, it would be a lie. I can't even deluded myself that I wasn't already in the palm of his hands before I stepped out of the car.
"So, Niklaus, where is your darling sister." Bonnie said as she cut her steak into tiny pieces," She is my favorite out of all of you."
Bonnie seen his eyes change from hurt to amusement,"Rebekah went to go handle business."
"Hmm," Bonnie hummed, she noted that he look worried and on edge, even if Bonnie didn't know him like she did she would be able to tell. What kind of business could she be doing that would make him worried, Bonnie thought to herself.
"Darling, before we get to dealing with both our problems to succeed in our near future, we have to delve into the past."
Bonnie raised an eyebrow then nodded," Go on."
"Marcel is my son. He's a Mikaelson not by blood but by everything that matters. "
Bonnie did not gasp or anything, in fact all she did was raise both of her eyebrows and snorted. But in reality it made sense, Marcel obsession with being a king really boils down to the man in front of her.
"Imagine if you told me the person who you lost in New Orleans was your son on who's a mass witch murder."
" You and I both know I thought he died. I didn't believe I had to go into great detail considering I believe he was bloody dead."
Bonnie raised her cup of wine to motion him into continuing before taking a big sip.
"In the 1820s, we found him. He was getting beaten, whipped. So we saved him. My family raised him as our own. Well, Elijah and I raised him, Rebekah and Kol did their usual thing. I may have been a horrible father but he's my son and we built this city. Then, of course as you know my father came and ruined all myheavy plans for peace in the city for all supernatural creatures. With me being king..." Niklaus voiced trailed off before he's voice got harsh," My family thought Marcel had died at the hand of my father. We grieved him. But when you mentioned his name I knew Marcellus was alive and a problem to dealt with."
Swallowing a tiny piece of steak Bonnie summarizes, "So you're saying you saved marcel from slavery. Became a white savior father figure. Built him into the image of who you werethen which is who he is now and currently he is terrorizing witchs. With that in mind you're not going to kill him because you view him as family. Great.."
He ignored most of her comment," You're right, I do not want to kill Marcel he is still very much my son. However, that does not mean I can't take what rightfully mine back."
"Do not tell me your going to try to be king of the city." Bonnie almost groaned in exasperation.
" Fine," Niklaus grinned, "I will not tell you since you obviously read in between the lines. However, you do want the witches free right? You need the witch's in control."
" I am not a french quarter witch they do not need listen to me."
Kluas laughed his eyes twinkle a bit. Bonnie mentally sighed she truly did miss his laugh and how his nose crinkled up a bit when he did. Although, she rolled her eyes because she knew that laugh was when he knew something she didn't.
"Sweetheart, you tell them you're a Bennett and they will all start talking like you're a princess from the medieval era. "
" What does me being a Bennett got to do with anything?"
" The Bennett's are the most powerful witch first witch bloodline. There is a reason my mother channeled your bloodline. Not to mention you are the first witch bloodline with the most feats to date. Ninety percent of the spells these witchs do are most likely cheap copy of what you're family already has. You're family is witch royalty."
" Ugh, I'm guessing this would have been part of your witch history lesson if I actually took your offer to teach me," Bonnie huffed sarcastically," So I'm guessing that makes me some type of queen."
Kluas nodded, ignoring the sarcasm," Since, the vampires and werewolves will follow me and the witch's will follow you. There is harmony back in the Quarter."
Bonnie tsked at him," Loyalty does not work like the way you think. You have them trust and care for you. With werewolves you need to bond with them actually make connections with feelings and treat them like family. You need to learn there traditions and shift with them on full moons. However, if you want a pack to trust you easily I say we help the crescent moon pack. Fixed the curse put on them and then be family with them. You need to be trusted before you can lead them."
" How would you know this?" Kluas lips pursed.
"I talked to one of them and not to mention what happen last time you just took over wolves turned them into hybrids and killed them because they were not loyal lap dogs. Which was mainly your fault. So, every time you want to meet the werewolves I want to be there."
" Fine," He huffed," I want to be alone with the vampires."
Bonnie almost laughed at the statement.
"Not happening."
" What do you mean," Kluas growled, which sent a quick chill down Bonnie's spine.
" Well, for a vampire you sure don't know how this works... Vampires are extremely loyal to their maker IF put in the correct situation. Now, Marcel obviously has that. Every vampire follows his rules with loyalty. You attempted to rush in and steal the throne would result in a quick downfall. You need to be persuasive not aggressive. Threatening to maim isn't persuasive so get ."
"I believe we can disagree because maiming can be very persuasive. How does that require you to be there?" Kluas said taking a sip of his wine.
"Fine agree to disagree. As we know from the many time we heard Stefan say vampire's emotions are heightened you should know that sending you with a sibling will result in violence. You're obviously emotional over Marcel faking his death so I go with you because I can shock you every time you get outta hand," Bonnie quickly released her magic to demonstrate ," like that."
Bonnie assumed he got the message since he nodded as he shook his hand.
" I will talk the witch's with you about plans to take down Marcel but no other than that since you will make them unsettled."
Kluas grimaced, " I can not believe I am agreeing to this."
Bonnie smiled back in his direction, Bonniereally liked the idea of the three supernaturals living in peace. Hakuna Matata type of shit in the supernatural sounded good to her. Especially with kids being born everyday she hates that they would have to grow up amongst a war.
"Once we get the three under our grasp we can discuss rules and a Council with three representatives for each group. Like the original fractions I had," Niklaus rationalized, as he took a sip of his remaining of his drink.
Bonnie was going to question on how the fractions work before but decided against it and would at about it later.
" Hmm, agreed."
Niklaus licked his lips, "Was the food to your satisfaction?"
" Yes, it was great."
" Glad you still like my cooking," He grinned at her," Come on little witch let's go for a walk."
Bonnie blinked before he was in front of her and she grabbed his reached out hand. Then, they started their walk.
" Since we are getting close again and we were in the past I wanted you to see my art room here."
"Are you going to send me cute figurings like you did the first time we fucked?"
" There's the blunt little witch I know." Niklaus chuckled and licked his lips,"If you want I will send you drawing of what I think you and I should wear for our meetings and you can do your thing we're you make it ten times better."
" You'd sketch outfits again? Thank you. I was never good at sketching."
" I know darling you would ruin all of my sketch books I got you."
Bonnie rolled her eyes," HaHa very funny. I wonder if I could make a spell to help like Rita Seeker in Harry Potter with her journal."
"You still obsessed over that blasted book I see."
Bonnie stopped mid walk and stared out the window for a quick moment. Bonnie sighed before continuing walking forward as Niklaus walked on her right side his arm gently resting over her hip.
" I mean you would be obsessed to if you found out you were a witch. At the time as you were discovering your favorite book you would try to do as many spells like it."
The pair walked into his art room and it was similar to the one back in Mystic Falls. It was organized by how recent it was. Bonnie stared at the few that were of her and one of them looked wet still.
"Our first night out. Do you remember?," Kluas stood behind her, his lips was almost close enough to touch the back of her ear," You wore this green dress that made you look exquisite. I was surprised you always wore outfit that didn't show that much. However I realized you always let the doppelgänger and your blonde friend out dress you in that moment and I was glad I realized before one of the Salvatore's."
Bonnie scoffed, " I did not let them out dress me. I let them outshine me in certain areas there is a difference."
" A mere difference that is really close to not being a different at all," he said as he turned Bonnie by the waist around to face him. He gently rested he fingers on the side of her neck as he dragged his thumb on her cheek," I missed you, love."
"You sure didn't miss me when you chose revenge over me."
Pulling away slowly Bonnie sighed, even if she did pretended that their many nights together was just one night it wouldn't change the fact; Bonnie Bennett cared deeply for Niklaus Mikaelson.
Niklaus looked hurt, his eyes open as he attempted not wear a frown. Bonnie knew he cared like she knew the back of her hand. However, she would never know if he care enough. Not in the way she need him to. Nevertheless Bonnie Bonnie heart ached at the thought of them being together again. If it was foolish she didn't care.
"Love," It was just a whisper but with without thinking Bonnie answered.
"Yes, Nik."
" I am sorry," He huffed pulling Bonnie into a tight embrace. Niklaus wrapped his arms around her waist and rested his chin on my head," You may not believe me but I am terribly sorry."
Niklaus Mikaelson apologies were rare so she knew he was serious,"Show me...Show me that I can trust you again."
"Do you remember the time you laid on my chest and you said you heard a heartbeat?" Kluas said," I was frightened. Because what does it mean having a heartbeat. What does it change?"
"That was three days before you left...You thought I was making you vulnerable."
He nodded," If you were with me and I was weak. What could happen to you?"
With exasperated scoff Bonnie pulled away from his chest," I did not need a witness protection plan. I just needed..."
"What did you need," He cusped Bonnie's face tenderly with both hands.
" You. Niklaus, I needed you."
If Bonnie wasn't so emotional at the moment I would have snorted at her own statement. She was used to hearing phrases similar on tv and laughing at the obscurity. However, it was what she felt and in multiple way did she did need him.
" I need you."
Bonnie couldn't process it before he lightly pressed lips pressed against her, his tongue slightly grazing her bottom lip. Bonnie let out a light hum against him. Bonnie kissed him back picking up the pace. Niklaus picked her up, rushed to his bed room, and laid her at the edge of the bed. He kissed around her neck, sucking gently on her pulse, Bonnie moaned at the action. He pulled himself upward gazing into her eyes.
Niklaus kissed her forehead, her cheeks, and lastly her lips. With another deep kiss their teeth accidentally graze each other. He deepened the kiss his tongue moving against Bonnie's as she pulled gently at his hair.
Pulling away, he tugged the straps off her dress down and he kissed and bite down her neck. He pulled the rest of the dress off and licked her nipple. Bonnie let out a gasp and rocked against his leg that rested in against her pussy. Sucking and licking her left boob, he caressed his free hands over her body. Bonnie gripped at the nape of his neck as she let out of sigh of contentment.
Niklaus kissed gently down her breast to her stomach," Lift your hips."
Bonnie didn't need to be told twice. Lifting her hips as Niklaus tugged down her panties. Lightly grazing his hands over her pussy and kissing her neck, Bonnie groaned.
" Stop teasing."
"Me? Tease?" He mocked her, as he rubbed his hands on her thighs.
Bonnie huffed using her magic to turn him on his back. She grinned at his shocked expression as she perched herself onto his lap. Bonnie kissed him feverishly as she rub her hips against his. One of Niklaus hand gripped the side of her hip and the other rubbing on her nipple. Bonnie moaned against his lips.
Niklaus let out at soft," Fuck."
Niklaus flipped them back over before pulling his own clothes off. Kissing down from her lips to the inside of her thighs, "Please," Bonnie moaned, she hated the teasing but Bonnie need him to touch much more than he already was.
Niklaus kissed her lips deeply again before replying," Please what?"
" Please-Touch me more." Bonnie moaned arching her back up against him as he rubbed both his hands over her breast. Bonnie leaned up and sucked behind his ear.
Rubbing his finger against her clit Bonnie gasped her fingers gripping his shoulders tightly. She rocked against him as he slipped a finger into her.
"Nik," She moaned against his neck.
"Fuck you're so wet," He groaned before he kissed her collarbone. He slipped a second finger in as he rubbed her clit slowly.
Moaning at the feeling, Bonnie scratch his shoulder. Niklaus hissed and pulled his fingers outside of her.
"More. Please," Bonnie cried out.
" You're so greedy." he laughed quietly before rubbing circles on her clit. Bonnie trembled at the contact grabbing his hair for support.
"Be a good girl for me and keep your hips still."
" Okay," Bonnie nodded a little in a daze.
He lowered himself and spreader her legs further apart. Licking up and down the slit of her pussy he pulled her closer to his face. Bonnie bucked against his face as he slid two finger into her at a slow pace.
Bonnie whined," Fuck me, please. God, Please."
Bonnie heard him chuckled before she realized she said the phrase aloud and her face flushed with even more heat then she already had.
He pulled his fingers out of her bringing them up to Bonnie lips. Bonnie sucked on them.
Pulling his fingers out of her mouth and kissing her forehead he whispered," Your gorgeous."
He spreads her legs open and slowly eases his dick inside her. Bonnie heard him groan a soft fuck before he pushed further in.
"You're so fucking tight," he moaned before he kissed Bonnie again. He started slow and gentle bringing her closer to the edge with a slow tease rubbing her clit gently. Bonnie kissed the freckle on his neck as she scratched on his back.
"Faster. Please Faster." Bonnie said breathy in his ear.
Niklaus went faster. He lifted Bonnie legs to his shoulders and he went a deeper. Bonnie water eyes gazed in his intense eyes as he fucked her rough.
"You're so breathtaking. So fucking pretty. My ravishing Bonnie."
Bonnie felt the usual feeling in her stomach," I'm gonna- Fuck Nik."
" Let go Bonnie." With those words alone Bonnie eyes rolled back and her back arched and she released her orgasm gasping his name like a prayer. Bonnie felt every moment they ever had hit her like a tsunami. This was something much more.
It was something with Niklaus that I couldn't regret. Any of the moments that I had with him couldn't be any form of regret. I know it was easy for you to replace the good moments with the bad ones but God I care for him even with the bad ones. Elena, I am scared, No, I'm fucking terrified that I just might be more in love with him then I think. Our past and our future are so intertwined I can feel it. I could feel the pain but I could feel the love. Elena, it was the most I love I ever felt. I know you don't want to know much about my sex life but after a while Elena I had a vision. It was the past, present, and future. I didn't see much but I seen enough to know that the future holds hope.
There Bonnie laid in the massive sized bed with the light from the ginormous window beaming in on Bonnie's face. The off white silk covers wrapped around her body. Bonnie stretched her arms then sat up and rubbed her eyes. Bonnie shook her head before she realized Niklaus was not next to her. Bonnie looked down at herself and wondered when she got dressed. She hummed to herself and concluded that Niklaus put his shirt on her.
At first Bonnie was going to sneak out which wasn't really sneaking out with vampires. It was more of a walk of shame that nobody would talk about. Then Bonnie smelled breakfast food cooking so who was she not staying for breakfast food. It was kind of rough for Bonnie to get down the stairs when Bonnie hip was hurting from how hard he gripped her hip last night. She for sure knew she had a bruise.
Bonnie walked in the kitchen to the side of Niklaus. Bonnie didn't knowing were they where at. She didn't know if they were back where they were at or if they were going to act like complete strangers.
"That look on your face worries me," Niklaus said turning away from the cooking eggs," You are over thinking."
"Can we discuss what we are after I take a shower," Bonnie asked, Bonnie really wasn' in the mood to get her heartbroken again.
He kissed her forehead," Of course love. You have some clothes in my top drawer."
Bonnie nodded, slowly she turned around before walking back up the stairs his big shirt hanging on her body swaying back and forth.
Bonnie made it back in his room digging in the first drawer with my clothes inside it. Bonnie sighed nostalgic, no wonder she couldn't find some of her clothes he kept them. When he left.
Bonnie took a shower and as she did she recalled how the first time they had sex she scrubbed her body as if she was the dirtiest thing in the world and now she currently was washing herself gently. After she got she put on a black skirt and red long sleeve top that frilled down the cleavage. Bonnie shook her head it was so obviously picked out by Rebekah. Bonnie slid on the shoes she wore last night. It was a cute outfit.
Bonnie walked down the stairs her heels clacking against the floor were a bit loud even for herself so she tried to soften her steps. Klaus waited at the bottom of the stair with a pastel blue glass plate with bacon, eggs, and a large waffle on top of it.
"Thank you," Bonnie said, as he put the food in her hand. He turned his body sideways towards Bonnie resting his hands on her lower back guiding her to a chair before pulling the chair out. Bonnie sat down after placing my plate on the table and he pushed my chair in.
It was too much, really. Maybe it was moment like this where Bonnie remember his sweetness and it feels like her heart aches all over again. Like someone stabbed her in the chest and pulled at her heart so you would barely breath or live even. The little moments like this where he would cook for her in her Dad's house. Where he would do thing like this. Cook for or with Bonnie. The laughing and innocent giggling. The mess of food that ended in gentle and heated kiss. It was really too much for Bonnie.
" So," Bonnie said trying to push down any extreme emotions she felt," What are we?"
" I don't know."
"Okay, then we should talk about why you left."
He huffed," You were in love, and it was not with me."
Bonnie could have laughed, maybe even chuckled from the pure stupid shit that came out of his mouth.
"Not with you? Who else then?," Bonnie glared at him," Was it the 'I love you' every morning and night that proved I was in love with someone else? Or was it the promise of 'until I die will we part' that proved my love for someone else?"
"No."
" Then what was it? Because I love you with every fiber in my being and Niklaus you broke every promise you made to me."
" You were in love with the Gilbert boy."
" I was not. He was my first love, yes. I can not even call it that considering he didn't love me until he lost me. When he lost me, I slowly stopped being in love with him. Then you came. Every morning harassing with drawings, flowers, and promises of love and adoration. I brushed them off until one day you brought me a sculpture of two doves it was so simple but that was when I decided to let you in. That was the start of me falling in love with you. It was slow, steady, and I couldn't have been even more happy with. Then you left."
" I saw the way your eyes lit up when the Gilbert boy came back to life. The way you hugged and caressed him. It was the same way you did me."
" But I was not in love with him. I felt bad for him. His sister had her switch off and he needed a shoulder and the only person he had was me. He became the anchor to the other side. I was trying to help him while also trying to find the bones to my ancestors and consecrate them at the witch's house the one we rebuilt together. Then I died this time with Damon and Jermey. You aided into bringing us back. Don't look at me like that of course Stefan was going to tell me. God, Niklaus you have got to realize that communication is everything. I wish you spoke to me about how you felt and I would have clarified just as I'm doing now."
"I love you so much Bonnie Bennett," he said gripping her hands," I'm sorry I left. "
"Your apology is not accepted yet."
He nodded, understanding, how the separation affected the pair. Which Bonnie was glad for. No outburst that made my ears bleed.
Niklaus looked into her eyes," Can we be together again?"
" Nik your going to have to work for that." Bonnie grinned at him.
"Is that a challenge, love?"
" It is."
"A challenge it is," he got up and kissed Bonnie's head," Now finish eating so we can find my dear brother. I am going to go find a snack."
Knowing him Bonnie knew his snack was keyword for blood. Bonnie finished up my own meal. Then, walked to the kitchen and washed out my plate putting it in the dish rack.
Bonnie was pulled into a hug at random. She was going to react but she smelt the familiar scent of Rebekah's rosemary perfume so Bonnie hugged her back.
Rebekah squealed, " Please, tell me your here to stay."
" If your brother is good then probably but I'll visit you more."
Rebekah pulled away from their hug, " Speaking of which are you helping to find Elijah?"
" Yeah, the main reason I came," Bonnie gave her a soft smile," I'm going to do a locator spell with Nik and I'll leave a note to where we are going so you can get some food because you look like you need a meal."
" Thank you so much Bon. I'll meet you guys there," She zooms off before Bonnie could say anything else.
Bonnie heard Niklaus calling her name so so she followed his voice until she found him.
" Okay! let's find your brother."
Bonnie grabbed the map drop and laid it on the little table in front of me," Your hand."
He gave Bonnie his hand, she whispered as waved her over the map,"Segmentum."
Slicing his hand and dropping blood on the map. Bonnie was determined to focus on her psychic powers more than her expression or nature magic considering if someone was hiding a Original Vampire they would have wards up for regular magic. Maybe not expression but she didn't want to test it. People didn't use protection spells for psychics she doubted such spell existed or people wouldn't have been so afraid of Silas.
"Phasmatos Tribum, Nas Ex Veras, Suquita Segenis, Amentes Ase Nichan, Egapetos," Bonnie hummed as she let the remainder of her magic out," Come on I know where he is."
Bonnie dragged Niklaus into her car after writing Rebekah a note about the church and started driving to where his "darling" brother was at
Bonnie turned her head towards him, " I hope you are ready to go deal with Marcel and his witch."
"With you on my side," he smile, a glint in his eyes," We could deal with everything."
