It was a dark night, as Katherine reached the compound, limping, vision going grey, heavily bleeding from her wounds. And once on the Mikaelson doorstep, she felt something hard beneath her, vision going black.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3A6VEKFtKp

Klaus on his way out when he smell blood; human blood. And once he opened the door, he was shocked to see a very human Katerina on her back on the porch.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6TizP6QEOE
He knelt down beside her.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVmiTqsD9C
“Katerina?” he called, as he assessed her condition and wounds with his eyes.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUWVHucsWS
“Klaus…” she murmured, barely awake.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdUSHgQNjO
He pulled her gently into his arms.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRiWe5hGvXp
“I’m here, luv,” he assured her.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjITXE09fdJ
He got to his feet with her in his arms and hybrid-sped inside to his room.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw3gWxmy99

By the time he had gently layed her down on her back on his bed, she had blacked out.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmNqrh2qtiv
He sat on her bedside and bit his wrist, putting it to her lips, making his blood go down her throat to heal her after what looked to be a vampire attack, hoping it would work, knowing that she had gotten the cure shoved down her throat.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJaVxpuEYT2
A few minutes later, he took his wrist away and her wounds and his wrist healed.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX1DT7W6wNH
He sighed in relief, glad that she would live to see another day. He had never shown it, but he had always secretly loved her and cared about her.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJlQnpBJDfH
He rested a gentle hand on the left side of her face, looking down at her, and waited for her to awaken.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiURc3pa8FW

When she woke up, it was still dark outside and she was in Klaus’ room, who was seated on her bedside, looking down at her like he cared for her.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRe9awjTtuF
“Tell me who did that to you,” he said, before she could say anything.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEcbVY5yM9n
“It was a vampire. That’s all I know. Why didn’t you kill me when you had the chance? I’m not worth anything to you anymore. I’m useless to you; especially, now that I’m a weak, helpless human.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDE683o7E4g
“Is it so hard to believe that I care about what happens to you?” he questioned her.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYOMGMAgWmR
“Yes.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3rSHZhUKh
“Apart from what I did 500 years ago, why?”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiE9oB4vNs6
“Because like me, you’ll always be that monster,” she replied.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwClBAKbUi
“Is that really what you think of me? A monster? I saved your life tonight. I even refrained from showing up back in Mystic Falls to see you. I kept my distance, despite your change.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgw7mf8iraO
“If you want to help me, then do it. All I’ve had this summer is fear, loneliness, and hatred.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctLlwarAuq
“Then I’ll help you. Despite what you think, we are alike, you and I.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZNBO6odSyo
She gave a smile.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIsWPiTFIZ
“That we are.”500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXNNuWkUa8m
He smiled back.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcrR60ZkQXk
A moment later, they were kissing with him on top.500Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJYjb8MXUbv
