This IS a reader insert fic; I just don’t like writing with Y/N in the place of names. Use Rosalie/Rose as a placeholder for Y/N and Wilson for L/N.
Description: Someone tried to play with Kai's girl, and he didn't like that very much. Now, she had to surrender to his every whim until he was satisfied... until he convinced her she belonged to only him.
Ice clinked around in the glass as Kai swirled his gin and soda. He was leaning against the bar, steadily downing his drink. Rosalie was just a few feet away, hidden in the dancing crowd but still in his line of sight. He couldn’t help but smile as he watched her prance around with Caroline and Elena, carefree with her closest friends. Rose glanced over to him every now and then, waving enticingly with a little wiggle of her fingers.
Malachai was dressed well, attracting attention with his classic rings and a smooth black jacket. Rosalie, too, looked so very sexy in her skintight black miniskirt and golden top. Unfortunately, Kai wasn’t the only one who thought so. With his attention occupied by the lovely little minx, Kai failed to notice someone approaching his girl.
Rosalie was perfectly capable of fending off unwanted attention, but Malachai made his way over to her anyhow. Impolitely shoving through the masses of people, Kai made it to her side, wrapping his arm around Rose’s waist and pulling her into his side possessively.
“Yes, so, as you can see, I have a boyfriend.” Rosalie tried to speak kindly, but really, she had no patience for creepy assholes who forced themselves onto women. Kai only had to glare at him wordlessly to send him packing.
“We’re leaving.” With his tone on edge, Rosalie knew it was best not to argue with him. Saying goodbye to her friends, she left the club with Kai, saying nothing and hoping he wasn’t too upset.
Malachai was possessive; he knew it, too. When he’d had much of what he wanted or needed in his life taken from him, he’d begun latching on to things he couldn’t bear to lose. Rosalie was the only one who he cared about. She was his family and his lover… his everything.
Sensing his distress, Rosalie’s hand reached for his, their fingers twining together as they walked to the apartment they shared. He squeezed her hand with much more force than normal, and if she were human, some of her bones may have cracked under the pressure.
It was late into the night, and no one was around. Unable to be patient any longer, Malachai hoisted her up over his shoulder – proud of the little gasp he elicited from her – and ran all the way to their home. He unlocked the door with magic and didn’t waste even one second before throwing her down on their bed.
With a snap of his fingers, all her clothes were gone. He towered above her, one of his hands enclosing around her neck and holding her down: at his mercy. It didn’t cause her any pain; it just showed her who she belonged to.
Rosalie was a strong, independent woman. Malachai knew that, too, and he respected her for it. This, however, was a side of her that only Kai was able to see. Here, she was his little plaything, and she loved every single thing he subjected her to… even the consequences of his depraved, dirty thoughts.
“You see this right here, princess? This is the difference between me and you. You’re a tiny little kitten, naked and trembling below me.” His free hand began trailing down her bare torso, two fingers pinching her left nipple cruelly. “I can do whatever I want to you, and you’ll just take it. Why is that?”
It was a rhetorical question, one that they both knew the answer to. Nevertheless, she answered him anyhow. “Because I’m your good little girl, Daddy.” Kai hummed in approval, loving how powerful she made him feel. “Is that right? Are you a good little girl for Daddy?” He slapped her right breast harshly, her squeal of surprise exciting him beyond measure.
“Aah! Yes, Daddy…” Pleased with her response, Malachai leaned down and kissed her deeply. It consumed her severely. “Daddy wants to try something a little new tonight, darling. Do you trust me?”
Kai’s hands continued to explore her body. Before she had a chance to answer, the index finger of his right hand began teasing her clit, sending her mind into a frenzy. “Y-yes Daddy… I trust you.”
He pressed a tender kiss to her cheek. “Tell Daddy what your safe word system is before we start.” His finger picked up the pace, making it difficult for her to speak. “Yellow means ‘I need you to slow down’. Red means ‘I need a break’. Black means ‘Stop everything at once’.”
Kai looked into her eyes, already loving the burning pleasure in them. “Good girl.” Kai’s lips trailed from her collarbone to her neck, nipping at the soft flesh. As his teeth drew the tiniest bit of blood, two of his digits thrust inside her. He positively growled when he felt how ready she was tonight; this would make things a lot more fun for them both.
Licking up the offensive drop of blood, Kai hovered above her. His fingers unzipped the black leather jacket from his body while the two inside her didn’t stop their assault. He wanted to see her get right to the edge of her ecstasy, anticipating that wild drop into rapture; only he had the power to take her there.
He discarded his jacket, tossing it on the ground. Rosalie was mewling and whimpering beneath him, and he smirked. It was so, so easy to get her in the palm of his hand.
“Are you close, baby girl?” Kai knew the answer to that before she spoke, but he enjoyed playing with her. It told her again and again that she was his. She could only nod, overcome by the torturous machinations of his fingers.
Grinning in triumph, Kai took his fingers out of her and slipped them into her mouth, silencing her protests. “You get to cum when Daddy tells you, princess. Not before, and not after.” Slapping her face lightly, his eyes bore into hers. “Nod if you understand.”
Rosalie sucked on his fingers, tasting her own juices, and tried to calm her racing heart. At his command, she nodded. Kai removed his hand from her lips, trailing the wet fingers down and circling them around her right nipple. As he did, he nuzzled into her neck.
“Do you have any idea how much I love you?” Rose’s body was still trembling with aftershocks from her denied orgasm, but she stroked his hair, nonetheless. “I love you just as much.”
Kai held her for a while, hoping for her body to relax almost all the way before continuing. He peppered kisses all over her face occasionally, reveling in the soft giggles. They were just as enchanting as any other sound from her. Once he felt her body sink into the mattress, Malachai used his favorite little cheat in the bedroom: his magic.
Without any toys or ornaments, Kai stole her sight. His touch returned, now multiplied. With her vision gone, Rose failed to decipher which of the six hands roaming her were connected to Kai’s body and which were purely a mirage. They were everywhere: clutching her ass, pinning her down, teasing every little bit that drove her mad with excitement.
With her orgasm just cheated away, Rosalie was right back on the edge. She couldn’t identify Kai’s real hands, but she knew exactly where his mouth was. It snaked down her sternum, painting her with wet, hot kisses. She whined in complaint, and Malachai wanted to taunt his little fucktoy.
“Let me hear how badly you want it, darling. You know much I love making you scream for me.” Despite his order, Kai silenced her. Their mouths meshed together, their lips dancing with the other’s in pure heat. He tugged his jacket off, not bothering to halt his attack on her. 
This was taking too long. Another snap and his clothes vanished along with hers. He wanted her, and he wanted her now. Stopping his little spell, Kai grabbed her hips and flipped her over. She cried out, and with one arm hooked around her waist, Kai played with her dripping sex, receiving a rush of pride as a result. 
Malachai’s fingers tangled into her hair, pushing Rosalie’s face down into the pillow. “I am the only one that can do this to you. You’re my helpless little toy, and you’re going to take each last drop of attention you get from Daddy gratefully.”
Not giving her what she wants just yet, he brought her legs closer together, sliding his hard cock into a little gap between her thighs. Rosalie’s eager juices soaked Malachai’s shaft, getting him ready to fuck her senseless.
“Ohhh, Daddy, please…” Rose was a whimpering little mess, pleading for him to just ravish her. “You want it that badly, huh?” There was nothing more Kai wanted than to make her wish come true, but he wasn’t done yet. Within a second, Rosalie found Kai under her. Her legs straddled his left thigh, her aching sex flush against his hot skin. 
“Earn it, baby girl. Ride Daddy’s thigh and get yourself right to the edge again. Do it well, and earn Daddy’s cock.” Fire coursed through her every nerve, making her mind melt into a haze of lust and attraction. His hand grasped her face, the cold metal of his rings contrasting with the heat flowing between them. “Look at me when you grind against me.” 
With her eyes locked on his, Rose started rocking her hips against the apex of Malachai’s thigh. He smirked up at her, feeling her wet his skin with her excitement. She could feel her clit rub against the hard muscles of his leg.
Taking her by surprise, Kai smacked his hand against her ass. He was rewarded with her little gasp, gripped her chin, and pulled her lips to his. With harsh, desperate desire, he spanked her again and again, nibbling on her lower lip and not letting her stop. Her skin grew hotter, and her body started trembling.
“Keep going, princess. And don’t you dare cum until I let you. Do you understand me?” Rosalie moaned loudly, nodding and doing her best to obey for as long as she could. 
Malachai wouldn’t make it easy for her, of course. Sitting up, he grasped her hips. His fingers dug into the soft flesh of her hips, and he rubbed her sex into his thigh. Her clit thumped against his pelvic bone with each rough grind. “Daddy! Please let me cum! Please, please, pleaseeeeeee! I can’t take it anymore.” 
Luckily for her, neither could he. 
Lifting her up, Malachai slammed her down on his throbbing cock. His moan mixed with her cute little scream, and his thumb assaulted her overstimulated clit. Rosalie’s eyes were screwed shut, and he did not like that even a little. “Look at your Daddy when he takes you. Open your eyes, and let me watch while I drive you insane.” 
Their eyes met once more, and a jolt of ecstasy ran up Rose’s spine. “Daddyyyy, please let me cum!” Kai thrust into Rosalie relentlessly, watching her unravel for him. “Cum.” With one word, she had all the permission she needed. Rosalie exploded with pleasure, her body thrashing atop his. “That’s it… just let go, that’s a good girl.”
She’d gotten her first orgasm, but Daddy was nowhere near done with her. Malachai turned and pinned her to the bed beneath him again, his hips not stopping. “Since you were such a good girl for me today, I have a little prize for you. You can cum as much as you want tonight, over and over and over, until you’re satisfied.” One hand closed around her neck, and his eyes bore into hers. 
“No, that’s not right, actually. You’ll keep cumming until I am satisfied.” Applying pressure to the sides of her throat, Kai stole some of her air. He was the only one who could have her like this. “You are mine. Say it.” 
“I’m yours, Daddy. I’m Daddy’s good little girl.” Rose’s voice choked out of her, and just as her first climax subsided, another began. She fell over that edge again, writhing uncontrollably.
Kai watched with triumph. “Just one good fucking, and you’re a toy for my amusement. No matter how hard you’d try to fight it, you will always end up Daddy’s well-behaved slut.” 
This went on for hours. Kai did everything he wanted with her, drawing mind-numbing orgasms out of her to his heart’s content. When the sunrise was just a few minutes away, Malachai begged her for just one more. “Please, baby. Just one more. You can do it. Just one more time for Daddy.” Rosalie was spent, never having known rapture like this before. 
She didn’t know if she had it in her, but as she felt Kai shoot his hot cum inside her, it hit her again. It nearly hurt with how it took over her body. Her teeth sank into Kai’s neck, drinking to fulfill her last desire. Malachai growled into her neck, finding the crook of her collarbone and returning the favor. As their last mutual climax quelled, both of them fed on the other. Elation, lust, and love flowed between them. 
Rosalie collapsed with exhaustion, and Malachai pulled out slowly. He looked down at the carnage he caused between her legs, going down to lick her clean. His tongue lapped against her sore sex, drinking down their essence and listening to her tired mewling. “Oh, I wore you out, didn’t I, baby girl? You did such a great job for Daddy.” 
Summoning a washcloth, Malachai wiped down her skin, ridding her of the sweat and the little bits of dried blood on her neck. Scooping her up, Kai rested her against his body. Rose’s head rested on his chest, and his comforting hand smoothed her hair.
“Thank you, Daddy… I love you.” He chuckled a little, finding it slightly amusing. “Princess, you’re thanking me? I should be thanking you. I’m so unbelievably lucky to have you. Thank you for trusting me, for giving me all of you… for letting me love you as much as I do.”
Kai held her as close as possible, pressing his lips to her forehead. “Are you okay, love? Hurt anywhere?” Given that she was a vampire, the fun sex injuries he got to inflict on her healed themselves. She may not have been physically hurt, but he knew she would be vulnerable and sensitive right now. Rose shook her head, not using her voice at first. “Daddy?” 
“Hmm?” His cheek pressed against her head, his arms squeezing his girl close. “Could we take a bath together?” Kai smiled at the simple request. He could give her anything she wanted, and she seemed to want nothing more than him. Their bathtub began filling in the other room, and Malachai didn’t let go of her just yet. “Of course, love.” 
Rose raised her head, listening to the running water behind the bathroom door. Looking up to meet his eyes, she rested her chin on his shoulder. “I love your magic.” Rosalie pressed her lips to Kai’s in a sweet, loving kiss. “I love my magic, too.” He really did. Not only because he could use it for his every whim, but also for his ability to use it to protect her. Keeping her safe and happy, making her feel cherished, what better use could there be?
Lifting her up in his arms, Malachai carried her to the bathroom. He set her into the warm water, sneaking in behind her. With her back resting against his front, Kai peppered kisses along her cheek, jaw, and neck. Nipping at her skin playfully, he laughed with her. Nothing was amusing; everything was just perfect. For someone who hadn’t known happiness for the majority of his life, this was everything he could have dreamed of and more.
Their mouths met again, their lips sliding between the other’s beautifully. This embrace was about nothing more than loving each other.
She knew him, and he knew her. He would never let go, and neither would she. They would have each other forever.

"Listen, Kai. I'm anything but perfect. I've... made some huge mistakes in my life. But being with you wasn't one of them, and, yes, you lied to me and pretended to be someone you weren't, and, yes, I did love Mon-El once. When he left, I hoped he would somehow find his way back to me, and yet I somehow found my way to you instead. It doesn't matter if you're not an alien prince. It doesn't matter if you were a psychopathic killer on your earth." Y/N said.
Kai turned him and stood as he walked towards him. "You're just saying that because you can't change what happened. That you can't get who you really want. I'm just your consolation prize. A cheap knockoff of Mon-El and all that he means to you."
Y/N shook his head. "No, Kai. I don't care what happened between Mon-El and I. I don't care what he would have done because he's not here. You are."
Kai was certainly shocked. All his life he's been the villain of every story. The one who was blamed for everything. He honestly thought he deserved everything bad that happened to him, but being with Y/N made him want to be a better man. "You're serious?"
"I am. I realize now that Mon-El wasn't the one fated to be in my life. He was put there to prepare me for loving you. And I love you Malachai Parker."

Never To Plan *Part 2*
Niklaus Mikaelson!Father X Son!Reader Malachai Parker X Male!Friend!Reader (platonic)
Word Count: 1620
Requested: @emaz-0225
Request: Hello I hope your doing well can you do a part two to Never to Plan where Katherine comes to New Orleans and finds Hayley and Elijah and tells them that her and Klaus son has turned off his emotions and they need to help him so they go to Klaus and they work with Freya and Vincent and Kol and Finn to get Dahila out of Y/N life and to get his Emotions back on but they get rid of Dahila but it doesn't work and then Stefan comes to town and tells them that Damon is with Elena but then Kai comes to town and helps fix Y/N and they go to England 🇬🇧 for a while
*Part 1*
Tumblr media
Katherine had caught the tail end of your interaction with Damon and Elena, she’d seen the look in your eye and while she had every intention of making them pay for what they had done to you, saving you was first priority. The only way that she could do that was to get the help of your father and his family, they were the only ones strong enough to get rid of Dahlia and free you from her control. Katherine made a quick decision and headed to New Orleans, she found Elijah first, he seemed like the one most likely to give her the time to explain everything.
“Katerina what are you doing in New Orleans, you know if Niklaus finds you here he will not hesitate to kill you.” Elijah reminded her. “Yes I’m aware but I thought you would want to know that (Y/N) is in trouble.” Kathrine answered. “A woman seems to be controlling his every move, after finding out about Damon and Elena he turned off his emotions, he’s in a bad place with a bad person we all know how dangerous that can be.” “Who was he with?” Elijah asked. “No one that I know, an older lady with dark hair, she was a witch.” Katherine listed. “Dahlia.” Elijah muttered “we knew that she had backed off but we should have known that it had something to do with (Y/N)’s disappearance.” Elijah said as he looked at Hayley. “The reason that she’s stopped going after Hope is because he took her place instead.” “We’re just supposed to trust her, what if it’s a trap?” Hayley asked. “Even if it were a trap, Dahlia wouldn’t know to use Katherine unless she had been in contact with (Y/N) in some way, so we have to assume that part if not the whole story is true and there is one person that can confirm part of it for us.” Elijah explained. “Though we will need Klaus for that.”
After explaining everything to Klaus, Elijah convinced him to call Caroline “Caroline, love I need to ask you something.” Klaus said. “What do you want Klaus?” She asked. “Elena and Damon are they together now?” Klaus asked. “What does it matter to you?” Caroline asked. “Answer the question love, lives are on the line.” Klaus prompted her as his free hand curled into a fist. “Yes they’ve been together for a little while.” Caroline answered. “He didn’t even bother to break up with my son. I take it?” Klaus asked. “I don’t know.” Caroline seemed to be thinking about something “but I’m sure that he was here in town a few days ago, so surely he knows by now.” “He does… And he’s probably become one of the most dangerous beings because of that information, thank you love, we’ll take it from here.” Klaus said before hanging up the phone. “She’s telling the truth, lucky for you we were devising a plan to get rid of Dahlia long before you showed up here, getting my son back is now the main priority.”
You honestly hadn’t expected that your family would be able to get rid of Dahlia but with the help of you grandmother they managed, however being back with your family didn’t make you feel any better, you didn’t feel any closer to wanting to turn on your emotions, even with all of them around you. Your mind travelled back to Elena and Damon and how you have given up everything to be with him and he so easily chose someone else. You should have known that it was going to happen but it still hurt.
Klaus had noticed that you weren’t changing, not that you were hurting any of them, you were careful with your little sister and stayed clear of the rest of the family barely interacting with any of them. He was sure that if he put you back in Mystic Falls the blood lust would spark, considering you seemed to travel out of New Orleans almost every night to hunt down someone to claim as a meal, Klaus was running out of ideas to help you and he voiced that to his siblings. “Well there’s one other person that might be able to help but I don’t know how we would find him.” Katherine said. “What?” Klaus asked. “Malachai Parker, he was friends with him before his family sealed him away, in fact that was what (Y/N) had originally gone to Mystic Falls to look into.” Katherine answered. “And?” Klaus asked. “Well as far as I know he’s still imprisoned somewhere but I don’t know where.” Katherine answered. “I guess you could start with the Parker Coven, they were the ones that sealed him, if I remember right there was a doctor in Mystic Falls that might know something her name’s Jo.” “That’s as good a start as any, shall we go brother?” Elijah asked “I’m sure our dear sister can hold the fort for you while we’re gone.” “As long as she does invite in every pretty face the propositions her.” Klaus smirked. “Now now, brother, no need to be cruel.” Rebekah crossed her arms over her chest “I’ll keep the place safe while you are gone.”
When Klaus and Elijah arrived in Mystic Falls it was evening, the town seemed somehow quiet and excited all at the same time, it wasn’t hard for them to follow the smell of blood to the venue of a wedding, when they walked in Klaus was quick to stop Damon from beheading the man in the middle of the carnage, covered in blood. “Damon, how nice to see you.” Klaus smirked as he pushed him away from Kai. “What are you doing?” Damon asked. “We’ll be taking him.” Klaus said. “What do you want with him?” Damon asked. “He’s going to help fix someone that you broke.” Klaus answered as he turned to see Elijah snapping Kai’s neck and lifting him over his shoulder. “Time to go brother.” Elijah announced.
They were driving back when Kai woke “who the hell are you?” Kai asked. “We are the original vampire family.” Klaus answered. “So you know (Y/N)?” Kai asked “he mentioned something about being a part of that family.” “Yes, in fact (Y/N) is the one that needs your help, he’s gotten into some trouble and you are the only person left that has any chance of helping him.” Elijah explained. “(Y/N) fell in love with Damon and as you can see he moved on quickly.” “So quickly that he didn’t even end it.” Klaus muttered. “Well then the sleeping curse was well deserved.” Kai muttered. “So what happened with (Y/N)?” “He turned off his emotions, at the time he had just sacrificed his freedom to save his little sister so he thought that there was nothing else left, since he had failed to find you as well.” Elijah explained. “Ever the selfless creature, he slaughtered half of what was left of my coven after they sealed me, apparently threatening to take something that my sister actually needed to live.” Kai smirked as he leaned back in his seat. “Best friend I’ve ever had, I’ll bring him back the same way that he had for me so many times before.”
When they finally got back it was one of the rare occasions where you were out of your room, wandering around in the quiet halls, your eyes fell on Kai first filtering out everything else. “Mal?” You asked. “You know I still hate that name Fangs.” He muttered. “I still hate that one.” You argued. “From what I hear there is not a lot that you don’t hate these days.” He smirked as he stepped forward. “How did you get out?” You asked. “Stabbed a witch, performed a ceremony.” He answered with a shrug. “I tried to get you out.” You almost seemed like you were panicking now, good you were starting to feel something. “I know you did, my father told me about the massacre after I was sealed and how you tried to find a way to get me out, he spent more time hiding from you than anyone else.” Kai explained and you nodded. “Well it’s okay because we’re both here now and I’d really like my partner in crime back especially since they’re all going to be after me for linking Bonnie and Elena’s lives together.” He answered with a smirk. “What did you do?” You asked. “Elena will sleep for as long as Bonnie’s alive.” Kai answered. “I also promised to find a way to never leave you alone, you remember that?” You nodded “well now I’m just like you, well apart from the wolfy part.” “You're a vampire?” You asked. “Kind of, you know I was a siphoner before?” He asked, you nodded. “That means that I feed off the magic you get from being a vampire, so I can use magic like any other witch and I have the benefits of a vampire.” Before anyone could do anything you hand your arms wrapped around Kai as you pull him into a tight hug. “I can always count on you.” You said softly. “Now more than ever.” He promised. “I missed you.” You whispered softly. “I think I missed you too.” He confessed as the rest of your family breathed a sigh of relief, you were finally back to normal.
The next day you decided that you needed a break from everything that was going on, you and Kai hopped on the first flight to England, where you had been staying before with a promise to come and see your family again soon.
Requests and general question!

Can you make a story about Kai and reader being trapped in the prison world? She hesitates to leave without him when she has a chance and he tries to find out why, but she doesn't get why either. She figures she'll find another way out somehow .
I can't leave without you, alright? | Kai Parker x Reader
my masterlist ↪M A S T E R L I S T
warnings ↪i don't exactly understand this but i'll try my best to interpret it, thanks for your request :)
Tumblr media
"Malachai Parker, tonight, Lunar Eclipse. Our ticket out of here." I yell as I walk in through the doors of the house I once lived in 40 something years ago before I was banished with my best friend.
"well I can't exactly go." Kai mumbles "what why?" I ask him "I haven't exactly siphoned anything in years, therefore no powers and you know that I can't leave without magic." he mumbles munching on a carrot.
"well remember where Jo hid her powers, it was in some object in your old ghastly house." I narrow my eyes to my best friend, he had been trying to siphon magic for years "besides you know if you can't leave I can't leave. We've been here together for years. I've missed years and years, I'll do it again." I mumble sitting down next to him.
"you can leave without me." he stares at me, I shake my head "far be it from me to cause a problem when you do finally make it out another 45 years later. I'd wait." I clear my throat.
"fine don't leave, but when the lunar eclipse passes do not cry to me." he crosses his legs "fine" I say opening an outdated magazine "fine" he says opening another magazine.
Moments pass of pure silence and I was so sure that a hint of magic was in the air because Kai managed to keep quiet for more than ten minutes before speaking, "why won't you go without me?" he asks turning his head to look at me.
"what?" i respond "you've had so many open doors, so many opportunities to leave me behind. Why haven't you?" he asks staring into my soul.
"don't be weird, i don't know." I say getting weirded out by his genuine concern for me not leaving him behind "I mean it's a genuine question, y/n." he shrugs finally breaking his stare.
"no you're weirding me out, i don't know kai." rushing out of the room.
"I'll find us another way out of here." I mumble reading through the left over grimoire's of Kai's parents.
"there has to be something for you to harness enough magic without siphoning from me." I say flicking through the pages "you think in the 47 years that we've been here, I didn't check through this. Once, twice, a hundred and seventy two times." Kai leant against the doorway.
"Well maybe you didn't read in between the lines, you're smart when it comes to everything except reading." i look back up at him as he looks taken back by what I just said "ouch" he says sarcastically.
"So are you going to confess your undying love for me yet? Is that why you won't leave?" he asks me "No i quite like looking 23 at the age of 64 so maybe thats the reason" I glare at him before flicking through another grimoire.
"y/n." he says as I block out his voice, his muffled voice says my name 7 more times before he touches me bringing me back to the real world. Or this world.
"why is it so important that I leave with you?" he says "Kai leave it alone." I disregard his question "Answer me!" He demands "Or What? You'll kill me with your magic?" I answer him back "No but I can just as easily kill you with the string of your necklace." he retorts.
"You wouldn't kill me Malachai. Not After all we've been through." I roll my eyes "Look We'll find a new way and if that doesn't work then we wait, again and look for your stupid magic otherwise one of us is dying before the other gets out." I point to him.
"and if you don't like that Idea, I don't really care because we are leaving together." I say to him before storming off... once more.
Racing around the house trying to find any answer, any at all to get out of this rotting prison but nothing.
I had never thought about why I wanted Kai to come with me, he was the reason I was in here and although that never occurred to me much. I didn't really care the only thing I thought about was getting us out of here, together.
Together? I didn't know why I wanted both of us to leave, I mean he was a raging psychopathic killer and I was just there to witness it. So I really had no clue as to why I wanted him out too.
"Why can't you just answer me?" he asks "I can't leave without you, alright? get off my back, jeesh Malachai." I raise my arms in disgust stomping my way up the stairs.

I WAS SPOONING YOU EARLIER
The human body is capable of surviving without air, food, water, shelter for short periods of time. However, there are other things vital that are often forgotten in these lists, in the case of Malachai Parker, there’s one in particular: Human Touch. Free of his Prison World, and touch starved no longer, he enjoys the embrace of  the person who ended the dry spell: Bonnie Bennett.
Dedicated to @koiporker
AO3: Here
Triggers: Death (Mention), Abandonment (Mention)
It’s odd, the things that human beings can and can not live without.
Without air, you can live three minutes.
In harsh weather conditions, you can survive three hours.
A lack of water will take its toll after three days.
How long you can living without touch, however, that’s something that can not be quantified in a number of hours or days. It won’t kill you right away, no, nothing about it is immediate, but it slowly eats away at you from the inside out until you wish it would. It starts by missing the embraces of those who you loved, a mother, a father, a twin sister, the sort of grand gestures that flood you with a warm feeling of belonging that has existed long before there was written language to describe it, and it ends with you forgetting the way it feels to have hands that aren’t your own brushing against your skin, how warm another human can be by simply existing beside you. Once you’ve reached that stage, it’s hard to get used to the touch of another person again, the feeling now foreign on flesh that used to yearn for it above all else.
After a lifetime of being touch starved, Malachai Parker had finally believed himself to be past the point of no return, that was, until he met Bonnie Bennett in a grocery store in his own personal slice of hell. Even standing by Damon Salvatore had been too much, but when the witch stood mere inches from him, their faces nearly touching, he felt nothing but a sense of calm he hadn’t felt since he was a child in his mother’s arms. Her fingers on his chest didn’t threaten to burn through his rib cage, though they did have the added benefit of making his heart race in his chest. She didn’t trust him, and he didn’t trust her, but the thought of her touch was enough to make him wonder what more would feel like. Where bitter resentment and anger had carved away at the heart of the Gemini Coven, warmth bloomed for the first time in decades, and it was something that the heretic didn’t know what to do with it.
Their love story isn’t the kind that would end up in a fairytale that people who believed in the concept of soulmates would read their children, but it’s theirs, and that’s enough.
A man who was so unused to touch that he used to imagine it as a weapon used to wake up from nightmares alone, surrounded by nothing but the reminder that his nightmares didn’t end when he woke up. Now, he wakes up from his nightmares to find two arms wrapped around him, and Malachai Parker knows that he is home and not cast away like some unwanted thing. As he catches his breath and looks around the room to ground himself, he’s not in a childhood home filled with memories of rejection starting from the people who should have loved him unconditionally, he’s not trapped in some unforgiving prison world where the repeating days pass slower and slower as the years dragged by. Instead he’s inside the walls of Sheila Bennett’s former home, the only four walls that Bonnie Bennett had ever felt truly safe in. The walls are covered in wallpaper that’s aged horrendously, but the witch who is holding him isn’t ready to rid the home of the things that remind her of the woman she wishes to make proud, and he’s in no rush to leave her arms and complain about the décor. Gray eyes watches as the ceiling fan rotates above them, turn after turn, a subtle sound almost enough to lull himself back to sleep, but as the sun begins to wake up the world bit by bit and light threatens to flood through the curtains, he wants to savor these last few moments admiring the way she looks. Blanket pulled up close to her chin, head resting peacefully, he likes to think that Bonnie Bennett looks a little bit like an angel, not that he’d ever tell her that.
“You just going to stare?”
Her voice is dripping in sleep as she moves without opening her green eyes to look at him. Her head comes to rest on his shoulder, and her arms adjust to pull him closer.
“It’s kind of a problem actually. You see, I have eyes, and you’re laying right beside me. Kind of hard not to stare.”
His teasing is soft, a measure to keep her from waking up more than she already has. Her eyes still aren’t open, but if they were, he’d bet every single dollar he didn’t have that she would be rolling them.
“You’re annoying.”
“If I’m so annoying, then why are you spooning me?”
Now it’s just a game, teasing and picking at her until she either falls back asleep, he falls back asleep, or one of them comes out victorious.
“Because you love it.”
“I love you.”
Three words he thought he’d never say, least of all to a Bennett witch.
“I love you too, dork.”
Bonnie Bennett curls up closer, pressing a gentle kiss to his shoulder as she starts to give in to the idea of stealing a few more moments of sleep.
“Goodnight, Bon Bon.”
“Goodnight, Kai.”
He relents, allowing her to have the final word as he curls up next to her and closes his eyes, basking in the warmth of her touch.
Yes, the human body can live decades without the touch of another human being, but after feeling the way Bonnie Bennett’s arms felt around him, Kai Parker couldn't imagine living one day without it.

Hello you amazing human! Me having an unhealthy obsession with Kai Parker (and TV sociopaths in general) I am requesting like a Romeo and Juliet inspired story? It can be like the 1996 version of R and J and make it like modern? Idk I think you are talented and I love you and I want you to adopt me.
Here is a modern version of the 1996 Romeo and Juliet movie in the vampire diaries world. Story takes place in Mystic Falls.
Word Count: 11,032 OMG
The characters I have used/ re-written are:
Kai Parker in place of Romeo Montague from the Gemini Coven, Reader Cadell in place of Juliet Capulet from the Oasis Coven, Kai Parker's friends: Sampson, Gregory, Benvolio, Mercutio and Balthasar, The Cadell boys: Abra, Petruchio, Tybalt, The Father/ Priest, Reader Cadell’s nanny, Parents to Reader, Parents to Kai, Rosaline, The governor’s son aka Dave, Police Captain, news anchors
* * * * * * * * * * * *  Scene: Local gas station* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
Kai Parker’s friends pull up to the gas station hooting and hollering. The ill tempered red head name Gregory shouts, 
“Those dogs called Cadells really piss me off! Any dog from that Oasis coven will make me angry enough to take a stand!” 
Sampson exclaims in response to his friend, “This quarrel is between our leaders...”
The red head interrupts “...and us their men! 
“I would be a tyrant, fighting the men and being merciful to the women by cutting off their heads!”
Gregory is mock outraged, “The heads of the women?”
Sampson turns up the car radio and the boys start to dance but stop abruptly at the sight of a black car. 
Sampson says, “Here comes the Oasis coven boys.”
Abra and Petruchio Cadell stare coldly. Sampson gulps nervously as Gregory nudges him mockingly.
“Fight back and take a stand, will ya?”
Sampson tries to hide his panic and responds, “Let them start the fight.”
The gas station door slams closed, BANG. The Parker boys jump at the sound, their attention drawn back to the Cadells who are laughing at the sight of the terrified group. Sampson brazenly flips them off out of embarrassment. Abra’s eyes look back in the mirror to see Sampson’s finger. Abra whips the car around full speed to block the Parker boys from escaping. He jumps out of the car and yanks Sampson out of his car. 
“You dare flip me off? Huh?”
“Yeah I gave the bird.” Sampson sneers.
“You dare to?!” Abra roars, gun drawn.
“You think the police will be on our side if I say yes?” Sampson turns to Gregory.
“Nope.” Gregory grimaces.
Sampson turns back to Abra stuttering, “Well I- I did give the bird. But I didn’t give it to you.”
“You want a fight?” Gregory asked.
“No I don’t want a fight,” Abra fake smiles.
Sampson turns to Gregory, “If you do fight, I will be by your side.”
Abra laughs, “Ha! Only you two? You can’t do better?”
“Uh...”
Just then, Benvolio comes back from the bathroom, and shocked by the scene pulls his gun out.
“Here comes our back up!”
“You fools!” Benvolio shrieks, “You don’t know what you’re doing! Let us keep the peace.”
“I hate peace.” Tybalt spits. He fires his gun at a child on accident, smacking the child’s toy gun to pieces. 
Benvolio panics and accidentally shoots a bullet near Tybalt’s head. Gregory shoots and nicks Abra’s arm when he attempts to move it away from his face with his magic. A gas tank explodes after a magically moved bullet hits it. A news van screeches around the corner going live with the gun fight and explosion. Tybalt corners Benvolio, placing a gun to his head.
“Look upon your death, Benvolio.”
Suddenly a burning light blinds Tybalt and the Police Captain yells through a megaphone. Police cars have surrounded the scene.
“Enemies! Place your weapons on the ground now! Stop using your magic!”
Tybalt looks to the police and stands down. 
* * * * * * * * * * * * At the police station * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The Police Captain sits down at his desk, across from the leaders of the Gemini and Oasis covens. 
“This is the third time your covens have disrupted the peace of Mystic Falls in a brawl.”
Cadell’s lawyer tries to intervene, “Captain I can-”
The captain slams his fist down. “If you ever disrupt the peace again, I will personally see you both go to prison.”
* * * * * The Parkers are on an awkward ride back to their mansion * * * * *
Kai’s mother sighs and looks out the window. “Oh where is Malachai? Have you seen him yet today?” She turns to her husband. “I’m just glad he wasn’t at the fight today.”
Benvolio feels guilty and answers, “He’s been at the lake side. I saw him walking there this morning.”
Kai’s father scoffs, “He walks too much around there, crying like a child.”
“All he does is hide away in his room, penning himself up and shutting out the light to make it dark as night.”
The driver leans back, “Ma’am, I’ve just received word. He’s at the pier.”
Kai is eating a bag of pork rinds, looking out at the sunset. “Love is a smoke that leads to disappointed sighing. I will never be able to get her, the beautiful Rosaline. Niece of my enemy. Unflawed love would make me feel powerful and alive. But when one does not return the love, the love only creates sadness. Love is madness. Love is bitter tasting but keeps us preserved and alive with its sweetness.”
Back in the car the family continues to chat.
“It’s not healthy for Kai to shut himself away with this depressing behavior. He needs a friends counsel to get him over whatever troubles him.” Kai’s father urges Benvolio. 
“Let me out, I’ll talk to him and see if he will tell me what is wrong.”
Kai’s father gives an encouraging smile that disappears as soon as the door is closed. “Let’s go home.” He sighs.
* * * * * * * * * * On the beach * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
“Good morning cousin,” Benvolio tries to act casual.
“Is it really only morning?” Kai asks seriously.
“It’s a new day.” He tries to act cheery.
“Sad hours seem long...” Kai turns to Benvolio. “Was that my father that just drove off?”
“Yes Kai but...” Kai shakes his head and starts to walk off, Benvolio walking swiftly after him. “What sadness makes your hours long?”
“Not having the love of her. With her the hours seem short.”
“You have gentle love in your view, but in others it is a sign of tyranny!” He exclaims.
“Whose view matters on my love...” Kai pauses when he sees a TV, playing back the news report of the fight from last night. “You had a fight?”
“I -”
Kai interrupts, “Don’t give me an excuse. I’ve heard them all. It’s much easier to hate someone than to love them. You are wasting so much time on someone who does not care about you.” He storms off in a rage, going up to the sidewalk heading toward a night club. “Why do you love to fight and love to hate, creating conflict out of nothing? My heart is swept away by love but it weighs on me that I am bound to it. It is agony my cousin.” He screams at a bouncer and uses his magic to flick him aside into trash cans. “There is no love like the one I feel,” he dark chuckles, “What cousin? Not going to laugh?”
Benvolio says nervously eyeing the crumpled bouncer, “No...I’d rather cry.”
Kai smiles mischievously, “Good bye, cousin.” And he takes off running down the sidewalk.
Benvolio sighs and starts to pursue. Finally arriving home, Kai gets to a car and a man hurriedly gives him the keys. 
Benvolio cuts him off panting, “Tell me... who is it...that you love?”
“My sad heart is in love with a woman.”
“I knew it was a woman,” he rolls his eyes, 
“She’s a beautiful lady.” Kai pulls down his shirt to reveal a small tattoo that says ‘Rosaline’.
“Rosaline?!” Benvolio is surprised but impressed. “She is quite beautiful.”
“She does not love me back, her heart is well guarded.”
“Hmm.. You know what? Forget about her!”
“How can I forget about her?”
“Look at all the other ladies,” he motions toward the girls on the sidewalk. 
Kai laughs dismissively. “Good bye. You can’t teach me how to forget.”
Benvolio hurries and jumps into the passenger seat of the moving car. The boys head to a bar.
“She would be in just as much trouble as I would be anyway, being a Cadell and a Parker.” He continues, “I think I could keep the peace between our families though.” 
The bartender smiles. “It’s honorable of you to try, it’s too bad your families are fighting.
* * * * * * * * * * At the Cadell Mansion * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The Cadell leader of the coven, your father, is set down at a meeting with the governor’s son, Dave. 
“So what do you say to my proposition?” Dave asks.
Cadell looks at the picture frame of his wife and daughter. “My daughter is still young and innocent. Give her 2 more years and then she will be a perfect wife.”
Dave is persistent. “Sir, girls younger than her are happy mothers.”
“Hmm,” Cadell eyes him hard, “And younger girls married too soon are blemished. She is my pride and joy. If you can woo her and get her consent then you have mine as well.” He comes around the desk to give Dave a fatherly pat on the shoulder. “I will hold a large feast tonight, join us and meet y/n.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * Back at the bar * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Benvolio and Kai have started playing pool. 
“Bring another lady into your sights and heart, then you will forget about her.” Benvolio hits a shot and Kai stops it with his hand, throwing it to hit other balls. “Are you insane?” Benvolio asks in mock outrage. 
“Insanely in love, yes.” Kai mocks back, stepping toward the bar.
An entertainment show is on the TV above, the female news anchor excitedly announcing. “Tonight the rich Cadell is hosting a great feast-” 
“A grand costumed event!” Her partner interrupts. 
The partner starts to read off some of the important guests who will be there. Rosaline’s name is on the list and Benvolio turns to Kai, wiggling his eyebrows. 
“Looks like Rosaline will be there.” Kai grimaces as Benvolio continues. “Let’s go to the feast, it’s perfect. We can sneak in disguised and find you another woman who is even more beautiful than Rosaline.”
“More beautiful than her? Ha! There has never been a more beautiful woman since the dawn of time.”
Their attention is drawn back to the anchor. “If you’re not a Parker, come and drink some wine at the feast!”
Kai pauses to think. “Fine. I’ll go, but only to prove that no one can be more beautiful than Rosaline.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the Cadell mansion * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
“Y/N!!! Y/N!!!!” Your nanny yells. 
She rushes around the house trying to find you. You roll your eyes and sink down further into the bubble bath, ignoring her calls. Lady Cadell is trying to ready herself for the feast, going maniacal at the nanny screaming. She yells your name. 
“God’s sake nanny, where is my daughter? Tell her to come to me.”
“I’ve been calling for her ma’am but I still can’t find her.”
“Mother, nanny? You called?” You said coolly, feigning innocence as you stood there in your bathrobe. 
The nanny exclaims in shock, “Oh! Get dressed y/n!
“Just leave her alone. We will speak in private, you can stay as I need your advice.” Your mother looks casually into the mirror, examining her costume and continuing. “You know, y/n darling...I was about your age when I was married.” She turns quickly, unable to hide her excitement anymore. “The governor’s son wants to make you his wife! Isn’t that exciting?”
The nanny tries to take her side. “He is a charming young man, miss.”
“Oh the most charming and handsome!” Your mother giggles, her drinks obviously kicking in. 
“What-” you are too stunned as she speaks again.
She grabs your arm, “He’s coming to the feast tonight! To see you! He is a rich man, fall in love with him. You will become his and all that is his will become yours!”
The nanny asks you cautiously, “What do you think of his love?”
You choose your words carefully, not wanting to put your mother in a foul mood. “I’ll try to like him and see if there is anything likeable, but ultimately I will only marry him if you approve and give me the strength.”
A maid comes in. “Lady Cadell, the guests have started to arrive.”
She gasps in excitement. “Hurry y/n, get ready!”
The nurse leans in to whisper, “And don’t forget to enjoy yourself.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * Down by the pier * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Kai Parker and a couple friends are sitting down at the pier, watching the bright lights of the Cadell mansion from across the lake. They hear a roar of a sports engine pull up and turn back to see who it is. Getting out of the car stands Mercutio, Kai’s best friend, dressed in drag. The boys practically fall over laughing as Mercutio pretends to be posing for paparazzi. 
“Now applaud!” He yells and whips out the party invites from his mini skirt.
“Holy shit dude, you did it!” Benvolio and friends jump up to grab them.
“I dunno.” Kai stands and continues to look out at the lake.
“Oh come on man! You have to go and dance.” He grabs Kai and starts to waltz. 
Kai laughs and shoves him away, “You can dance but I can’t, my heart is too sad.”
“Aw, poor heart broken child.” He mocks.
Kai looks at the stars. “Is love soft, or rough harsh and rude?”
Mercutio jumps on his back. “If love is rough with you, then be rough with it. Beat it down.”
“Your love is crushing me cousin.” Kai laughs, starting to fall down. 
Benvolio honks the horn impatiently. “Come on! We’re wasting daylight!”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the feast * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The boys pull up hooting and hollering. Waltzing inside, it is obvious that Benvolio and another friend have already started drinking. Kai walks in calmly, looking at the dance floor. Mercutio dances with a woman and passes her off to Kai.
“Come on, every guy should have the chance to dance.”
A Cadell boy drunkenly strides up to Kai who is dressed as a knight. He puts an arm around him, not recognizing him to be a Parker. 
The Cadell yells out, “Musicians! Play us a song!” 
Kai felt as if his heart would burst out of his chest at any moment. He quickly ducks out of the boys grip, abandoning the lady and tries to find an area away from the crowd. As he is walking he spots an angel. A literal costumed angel in the form of you. You are wandering through the crowd aimlessly when you spot him. Kai stares back at you, his plump lips forming a smile. His brown hair falling to the side, frames his perfect face. In that moment you knew he was the one. A yell disrupts your focus and you turn to see the nanny calling you. 
“Y/N!”
You look back for the mystery boy but he has vanished. The nanny starts to drag you toward Lady Cadell and Dave, the governor’s son. 
He extends his hand, “Will you dance with me?”
Knowing you can’t decline, you place your hand in his. 
Your mother trills, “Oh such a fine young man.”
Kai didn’t know how it had happened but in one moment he had lost sight of you. Rushing through the crowd to find the angel again, he accidentally bumps into a Lucifer. Little did he know, the man dressed as Lucifer was Tybalt. 
Tybalt then turned to Abra. “How dare Malachai come to a Cadell event. He mocks us with his mischief and antics. I will not consider it a sin to kill him in order to protect our coven’s dignity.”
He starts to storm off when your father Cadell stops him with a strong arm. “Where are you going off to?”
“It’s Kai Parker, he’s here.”
“Calm yourself, Tybalt. Don’t ruin this night, be peaceful in this house. Tolerate him for tonight and don’t waste your time on him. He’s not worth it, save it for another night.”
“I won’t tolerate him!”
Cadell rages, “You will! You will behave and stay out of any fights!” He shoves Tybalt. “You are making a scene.”
An older couple looks on shocked and Cadell tries to regain his composure. Comforting the couple he turns.
“Don’t worry, cheer up and have some drinks.” 
They smile heartily and walk away. Turning back to Tybalt, he harshly whispers. “I am the leader of this coven and you will obey me. Now go away.” 
Kai spots you on the dance floor once again, but this time you are with a man. He whispers, “I have never known what love truly means until I have spotted this angel. I take back and disown the idea of love I had for Rosaline.”
Even dancing with Dave you were still distracted by looking for the handsome mystery boy. Then you spot him again, your eyes connecting. You quickly look back to Dave, not wanting to seem too distracted but within a moment you were back to staring at the boy over his shoulder. The lights black out, colorful spotlights turn on as confetti and balloons rain down. You had stopped dancing. You let out a gasp as a hand suddenly yanks you behind a curtain. There stands Kai, he pulls you close to his body so your chests are almost touching. 
“Your hand is so clearly holy, if I offend you by touching it with my rough unholy hand, then let me make it better with a kiss.” Kai woos.
“Don’t be so hard on yourself. You holding my hand is a sign of devotion. Placing our hands together is a palmer’s kiss.” 
“Might I suggest we do with our lips what we do with our hands?” Kai kisses your lips sweetly. “Now my sins are gone.”
“Oh but now your sins are on my lips and the only thing that can make it better is another kiss.”
Kai kisses you once again. “There, now all is right.”
“You are very clever in coming up with reasons to steal kisses from me.”
Suddenly the nanny interrupts. “Y/n, your mother wants a word with you.”
You head toward your mother, and wave a hand, signaling Kai not to follow but he trails anyway. Kai watches the nanny and you head up the staircase instead of leaving like the guests. At the top is a furious Lady Cadell standing with Dave. Your eyes dart nervously to Kai as your mother starts to harshly whisper in your ear. She pullls you away from the stairs and that is when it dawns on him.
“She is a Cadell?” he whispers under his breath. 
You stop to look back at Kai and the nanny whispers in your ear. “HIs name is Malachai Parker from the Gemini coven.”
You feel a coldness fill your chest, disappointment and reality crashing down. Mercution runs up and claps a hand on Kai’s shoulder. 
“The party is starting to break up, we need to leave now so we don’t draw the attention of the Cadells.”
“It’s what I thought, yet I’m still dissatisfied.”
Mercutio ushers him out to the waiting car while Kai looks back over his shoulder longingly. As Mercutio starts to drive the boys away, noisily singing, he spots you in the window. 
You see Kai and whisper, “My true love is born from the coven that I’m born to hate. I fell in love too soon and now it is too late to hate him. It is such a large degree of love, that I must love my enemy.” 
You close the window and lean your head against the glass, unable to take your eyes off Kai’s disappearing form. Down below in the doorway stands Tybalt, also unable to take his eyes off the enemy.
“I will obey my uncle tonight. Malachai’s intrusion may seem sweet but it is bitter and will come back to poison us in the end.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * Out at the car * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
There is a traffic jam from all the cars trying to leave. Kai sighs and whispers beside his noise raucous of friends. “How can I leave here when my heart stays behind? I have to go back.”
Kai leaps out of the slow moving car and Benvolio yells.
“Kai! Where are you going?”
Kai is running back along the road, using the cars and bushes as a way to shield himself from the guards’ view. He stealthily climbs vines and leaps onto the other side of the stone wall bordering the property. Mercutio pulls the car around in front of the gates that are swinging shut. 
Benvolio points out, “I think he ran that way. Call his name!”
“I’ll do you one better,” Mercutio laughs. Jumping out of the car he dances in front of the gate swaggering like a flirtatious drunk lady. “Oh Kai!” He calls in a falcetto voice, “It’s me Rosaline! Come to my plump lips, my bright eyes and my long legs and quivering thighs!”
The boys cheer Mercutio on. Kai smiles at his calling. 
“He makes fun of love scars that are non existent.”
The boys are now laughing hysterically at Mercutio swooning around like a love sick fool. The fun is cut short when a security guard yells and a spotlight comes to life, pinning Mercutio in its beam. 
“Alright boys, let’s go.” He quickly hops into the car and they speed off. 
Outside the rear wing of the house, Kai creeps near the pool, taking cover when a bright light comes on.
“But wait, what light shines through that window?”
Almost in response, the balcony doors open and you step out still in your angel robe. You start to walk near the pool, unaware of Kai hiding in the shadows.
He whispers, “Y/n is the sun, rising in the East and killing the jealous moon. She is far more beautiful than any others.”
You sit on the pool ledge, legs dangling in the still water.
“It is her! My love!”
You sigh. Looking longingly to the stars you ask, “Oh Malachai, my Kai. Where are you? Deny your father and rebuke your name, or if you will not, my love, I swear I will no longer be a Cadell.”
Kai whispers, “Should I say something or remain silent?”
Starting to pace you continue, “It’s only your last name that is my enemy, but you, yourself are not a Parker. But what is a Parker? It is not a body part of a man. Why can’t you have some other name! What is a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet. So if Kai, if not called called Kai Parker, would be just as perfect. Kai, lose your name. Trade in your name, which has nothing to do with you, and take all of me in exchange.”
“I will take all of you in exchange at your word!” Kai steps out of the shadows and calls wildly. “Proclaim your love for me, and you can call me whatever you want!”
You scream and topple backwards, Kai tries to balance you out by grabbing your hand but is instead plunged into the pool with you. A security guard moves toward the pool area and you wave him away. assuring that everything is fine.
“Kai, why did you hide in the darkness and listen to my private thoughts?”
He puts his hands up in a calming gesture. “My own name is so hateful to me, if it were written on a piece of paper I would rip it up.”
“I have not heard you speak over a hundred words, but I recognize your voice and have memorized it’s sound. Should I not call you Malachai? And a Parker?”
“Neither my love, if you don’t like the names.”
“How did you get over the walls? If any men of my coven find you here, they will kill you.”
“The darkness of night will hide me, besides let them kill me. I would rather due than live without your love.” Kai leans forward, you kiss long and greedily until you push Kai away.
“I’m glad it’s night so you can’t see how embarrassed I am that you over heard me gushing about you. Part of me feels I should pretend I am not interested, as that is how proper ladies would act. But it is too late for that, do you love me?”
Kai starts to speak but you silence him and continue. “I know you will say yes and I believe you. Swear to me so you can’t be proven false my sweet Kai. Say it faithfully. If you think I’m too quickly won over then I will frown and see you no more, no matter what ends of the earth you may go to win me back. Honestly... I favor you too much, you may not believe me but I’ll prove myself to be more true and loyal than any other woman.” 
“My love, y/n, I swear by the moon, that lights the night so beautifully.’
“No, don’t swear by the moon for it constantly changes.”
“What should I swear by?”
“Do not swear at all. But if you dare to, swear by yourself. You are my idol and I will believe you.” You touch his cheek with your palm and Kai moves his lips close to yours.
“If my hearts dear love-”
Confused, you break away. “Do not swear then. I take joy in you, but not in a rash, sudden contract. We need to slow down, we don’t have to rush into anything. We should take our time and see where this love goes.”
Another light turns on and the nanny begins to call. “Y/N!” You rush up the pool stairs.
“Will you leave me so unsatisfied?” Kai tries to keep up.
You scoff and give a shocked expression, “What more satisfaction do you want tonight?”
“I would be satisfied if you promised me your love so we could exchange vows and be married.”
You run joyously into Kai’s arms. “I will gladly exchange vows with you and promise my love!” You kiss fiercely and passionately before being interrupted by the nanny’s yell again.
“Y/N!!”
“Good night dear Kai. If you really intend to marry me, send word tomorrow. I will come to you, tell me what time and place. I will leave all my fortunes behind and follow you all over the world.”
“Y/N!”
“I’m coming!” You holler. “A thousand times goodnight.” You kiss again and finally run inside. You reappear at the top of the balcony. “Kai! What time should I come to you tomorrow?”
“By 9 o’clock!”
“I will be there! Good night sweet Kai until tomorrow. Parting is such sweet sorrow.”
“Sleep well my lovely y/n.” Kai blows kisses to you and heads back toward the wall to take his leave. 
* * * * * * Morning time in a greenery * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
A priest is giving an herbology lesson to some young boys. 
“Plants, herbs and stones are a beautiful thing.” He makes a small cut in the bulb of a purple flower. “In this flower, lies a poison while also having the power of a medicine.” He carefully puts the sap in a beaker. “It smells lovely, but if tasted, can stop the heart. Our lesson is done.” 
Turning to put the beaker away in the fridge, he pulls out a jar of candy. Looking at them sternly, the boys take their candy and scram. The Father starts to watch the TV but his thoughts are interrupted by Kai knocking on the door frame. 
“Good morning Father.”
“Good morning! Why do you come so early in the morning to see me?” The priest studies Kai for a minute. “It is very early for you to be getting out of bed, and if I guess right it means that you never went to bed last night!”
Kai follows the priest as he starts to walk through the empty church. “It’s true, I never slept because I was enjoying the sweet night.”
“God have mercy on you! Were you with Rosaline?”
“With Rosaline? Father no. That name is out of my mind and long forgotten.” 
The priest starts to lay out preparations for communion. “Good my son, so where have you been?”
Out of old habit, Kai starts to help him. “I was feasting at my enemies house. So suddenly I was wounded by love and now both of ours only cure can come from you. I gave no hatred, and your power will benefit my enemy.”
“Speak clearly. Tell me what you mean. I do not know how to help you if you speak in riddles.”
“I am in love with the leader Cadell’s daughter. I love her and she loves me. We’ve promised our love to each other but we need you to make it official. I’ll tell you more later about where and when we met, how we fell in love. But I’m begging you to marry us today.”
The priest stands there a moment, thunderstruck. Two of the young boys enter in robes and he dismisses them. They get the message and bolt. He turns back to Kai, still stunned.
“Holy Saint Francis! This is such a sudden change. Have you given up on Rosaline so quickly? The one you claimed you loved? Young men love with their eyes and not their hearts. How many tears did you waste crying over Rosaline? I can still freshly remember you crying to me about your heart’s woe. You’ve changed so suddenly.”
“You’ve always scolded me for loving Rosaline.”
“I did not scold you for loving her, but for obsessing over her.”
“Don’t scold me over y/n now, we truly love each other. Rosaline did not love me.”
“Rosaline knew you loved her but didn’t really know what it meant.” The priest sits down in a chair and looks off into the distance where the childrens choir are assembling. The priest is moved by the childrens singing and he turns back to a waiting Kai. 
“Come with me, I will help you with your secret wedding. If we’re lucky it may turn the hatred between your covens into love.”
“Then let’s go, I’m in a rush.”
The Father stands and looks down on Kai, “We need to be smart about this and take it slowly. We don’t want any slip-ups.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the beach * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Benvolio and Mercutio are arguing. 
Mercutio snaps, “What do yo umean Kai didn’t come home last night?”
“I spoke to my uncle’s maid, she said Kai never came home.”
“He’s so obsessed with Rosaline, he’s gone insane.” Benvolio paces the sidewalk, “Tybalt sent a message to Kai’s father’s house.”
Mercutio interrupts, “I bet it’s a challenge.”
Benvolio stops pacing. “Do you think Kai will take up the challenge?”
“Anyone can write a letter demanding a challenge. But it takes a true witch to demand a fight with a siphoner like Malachai.”
“Kai is daring enough to challenge Tybalt.”
Kai’s car pulls up beside the lake’s parking lot. Benvolio heads toward him.
“Here comes Kai! Here comes Kai!” 
Mercutio saunters up the beach with mock chalance. “Bonjour Kai,” he speaks with an accent, “You gave us quite the slip last night, no?”
“Good morning to you too. What slip did I give you?” Kai feigns innocence.
“WHAT SLIP? You gave us the slip last night, are you mad?”
Kai grins smugly. “Oh my apologies, Mercutio. I had a great time, thanks for asking. It was very important business, I didn’t have time to say a proper goodbye.”
“Oh I’m sure you were kept quite busy last night.” He jokes and Benvolio hoots, jumping on Kai’s back.
“Oh shut up.” Kai shoves him off into the sand. “I’ll fight you.”
Mercutio flicks sand at him and starts to run down the beach. Kai laughs and starts to chase. Kai gains on Mercutio and dives into the sea, following him. 
“See, isn’t this better than groaning over love?” Mercutio splashes and Kai tries to dunk him underwater. “You’re much happier now!” He walks onto the beach, “Come on Kai.”
Kai tackles him onto the wet sand and Mercutio suddenly becomes serious. “How happy you are now, is who you naturally are.”
A shadow falls over the boys and there stands the nanny in a bright red ‘disguise’. 
“God, you are a beautiful woman.” Mercutio remarks, bemused at the sight.
The nanny ignores him and speaks to Kai, “I need to speak privately with you.” 
Kai gets up and starts to follow the woman up to a black car waiting in the parking lot. Mercutio looks questioningly to Benvolio who shrugs. “Maybe he’s going for dinner?” Mercutio yells at Kai, “Come home for dinner!.”
Before stepping into the car he yells back, “I will be there soon!”
“Goodbye old dragon lady!” He jests, blowing her a kiss.
* * * * * * * * * * * * In the car * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The nanny leaned in uncomfortably close to Kai and whispered harshly, “If you lead y/n on, treat her poorly or break her heart like a delicate tea cup then you will suffer an ill fate.” 
She leans back to her seat and there is a silence. Kai chooses his next words carefully. “Ask y/n to come to confession today. The Father will hear her out, absolve her sins and we will be married.”
* * * * * * * * * * The Cadell mansion * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
You are waiting excitedly in your room, looking for the nanny’s arrival. The black car pulls into the driveway and out steps the nanny. 
“Here she comes!” 
You bolt from from your room to meet the nanny at the staircase going to the rear of the house. You burst into the kitchen following her where she proceeds to start looking in the fridge. 
“What did he say?” You ask again impatiently, “Nanny! What did he say!”
Stepping away from the fridge the nanny sets food down on the counter. “Let me rest a minute, I am tired and hungry.”
You continue to plead, walking to her. “Please tell me! Is it good news or bad?”
“My God, why such a hurry? Can’t you stay here and talk for a while? I am out of breath.”
You cannot stand the suspense anymore. “How are you out of breath? Tell me! Is it good news or bad? Just tell me that much!”
The nanny sits and take a big bite of her sandwich, talking between chews. “You’ve made a simple choice of a man. You don’t know how to pick one. He is a very handsome and attractive young man but he doesn’t have the best manners and composure. However, he has a gentle spirit and nature. Have you had something to eat yet?”
“I already know those things about him, tell me more! What does he say about our marriage?”
“Oh dear, I feel a headache coming on, and my back aches...”
This is a game you know well. You climb onto the back of the recliner, setting down so you can massage her,
“Ooooo yes! Get right there!”
You then coo sweetly, “Oh sweet nanny, what does my love say?”
“He is an honest man, kind, handsome and virtuous. Where is your mother?”
You crack. “Where is my mother? That’s your reply?! My love says like an honest gentleman, ‘Where is your mother?!’”
The nanny pouts, “Calm yourself y/n!”
You explode in frustration. “How can you tell me to be calm? WHAT DID KAI SAY?”
The nanny goes quiet for a moment. “Do you have time to go to confession today?”
“I do.”
“Then go to the priest, Kai awaits there to be a husband and make you his wife!”
With a scream of joy, you hug the nanny.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the church * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
The priest shakes his head. “Such extreme emotions about this kind of pleasure often ends in disaster. Even the taste of too much honey can become sickly because it is so sweet.” He looks to Kai. “So love carefully and long may your love live.”
You push through the oaken double doors to the church. The priest cues up the choir and beckons for you to come to the altar.
“Good afternoon Father.”
Before the priest can reply, you and Kai kiss passionately. He wait just a moment then delicately interrupts you.
“Come, come and we will make this quick. Because, if you don’t mind, I’m not leaving you two alone until you’re married.”
You and Kai exchange vows and rings. The priest follows the two of you out, throwing hand fulls of rice. Your driver takes a perfect picture as the bride and groom kiss. He holds the car door open and you reluctantly get in. As the car drives away, Kai runs along side it until he watches the big car speed away. 
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the beach * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
Mercutio stands knee deep in the water fishing. Benvolio shelters himself from the heat under a life guard tower.
“Come on Mercutio, let’s go. It’s too hot!”
Mercutio ignores him and continues fishing with his gun. Benvolio looks around nervously hoping they don’t draw the attention of the Cadells.
“The Cadells are out, and if they see us, we won’t get away without a fight.”
“You are like one of those men who enter a bar and put their gun down on the table saying, ‘I pray I never have to use you’ but by the time he orders his second drink, he pulls the gun on the bartender for no reason at all.”
Benvolio doesn’t find him funny and turns away when a black Sedan rolling up stops him cold. “Oh great, here come the Cadells.”
“Well, well, I don’t care,” Mercutio drawls.
The car slides to a stop only feet away from where Benvolio stands. Tybalt, Abra and another Cadell emerge from the vehicle and step toward the Parkers menacingly.
“Good day gentleman, can I have a word with one of you.”
The rest of the Parker boys stand nervously at Tybalt’s words. Mercutio responds wittily, “You want just one word with one of us? Put it together with something else. Make it a word and a blow.”
“You’ll find me ready enough to do that sir, if you give me a reason.” 
Tybalt’s hand moves to rest on his gun handle. Mercutio stops jesting upon spotting the firearm.
Breathily he asks, “Could you not find a reason without me giving you one?” 
The Parker boys start to snicker again and Tybalt snaps. “Mercutio you hang out with Malachai.”
Mercutio’s anger grows. “Hang out? What do you think we are, a bunch of musicians? If I am a musician, then this is my fiddlestick,” he motions to his gun, “And I’ll use it to make you dance.”
Benvolio tries to mediate, “We’re talking in a public place. Either go someplace private, or it talk it over rationally or just go away. Out here everyone can see us.” 
Mercutio retorts, “People’s eyes were made to see things, so let them watch. I’m not moving to please anybody.”
Just then, Kai arrives in his car, heart full of happy news.
Tybalt walks away from Mercutio, “Nevermind you. Here is the man I am looking for.” He calls out to the approaching Kai, “Malachai, there’s only one thing I can call you. You are a villain!” Pulling his jacket aside, Tybalt reveals his gun to Kai.
“Tybalt, I have a reason to love you, let me put aside the hatred and forgive your remark. I am not a villain. So good bye. Clearly you do not know who I am.”
Kai turns and walks back to his car, surprising everybody. Tybalt is confused and outraged, hurling himself back into his Sedan. He kicks the car in a U-turn, slamming into Kai’s car. Kai locks the car as Tybalt gets out to beat down on it. He smashes the passenger window and hauls Kai out.
“Boy, your words can’t excuse the harm you’ve done to me!” Tybalt punches Kai across the face, sending him sprawling to the ground. “Turn and draw your gun!” He yells.
Kai shakily lifts himself from the ground, feeling his busted lip. Speaking through his bloody teeth, Kai answers. “I never hurt you. And so, good Cadell - which name I care for more than you can understand,” Kai cautiously pulls out his gun, “be satisfied.” He throws the gun to Tybalt’s feet.
The Parker boys can’t believe their eyes as Kai starts to walk down the beach. An angered Mercutio steps forward.
“This calm submission in dishonorable and vile!”
Tybalt grows angrier, handing Abra his weapon and sprinting down the beach after Kai. In a bone cracking collision, Tybalt tackles him to the ground near an abandoned life guard house. The boys run to catch up while Kai still refuses to fight and runs up the stairs. Tybalt trips him and he careens into the old wooden railing, smashing it to pieces. Tybalt kicks savagely at him, willing him to fight back. Mercutio runs after him, picking up a piece of wood from the broken railing and hitting him across the head making him fall down. 
“Tybalt, you ratcatcher!” Will you go and fight me?”
“What do you want from me?” Tybalt swings a lump of wood and Mercutio dodges. 
“Why, King of Cats, I want to take one of your nine lives. I’ll take one and depending how you treat me after that, I might beat the other eight out of you too.”
Tybalt swings his wood again and Mercutio blocks, throwing the stick away. Tybalt, now empty handed, charges and slams him against a window shattering the glass. Mercutio is back on his feet lightning fast. He raises a rock, ready to smash in his head when Kai rushes between them.
“Stop this fight Mercutio!”
Seizing his opportunity, Tybalt lunges up and aims to slash Kai with a piece of broken glass. Instead, he misses and slashes Mercutio across the stomach. He screams out in pain, grabbing his side. Everyone goes quiet. Abra tugs at a stunned Tybalt.
“Let’s go Tybalt!”
The pair bolts for their car and Benvolio goes to Mercutio.
“Are you hurt?”
Mercutio covers his wound and laughs, “Yes but it is just a scratch.”
Kai helps him get down the stairs. “Have courage, the cut can’t be that bad.”
“It’s not as deep as a well or as wide as a door, but it’s enough to do the job.” Mercutio jokes, “If you ask for me tomorrow, you’ll find me a very grave man. Goddammit! I can’t believe that rat could scratch me to death!” He says through crazed laughter.
He now turns his attention from the cheering boys to Kai who is struggling to support his weight.
“Why the hell did you come between us? He struck me under your arm.”
“I thought it was the right thing to do.” Kai starts to panic.
Mercutio pushes himself away screaming, “May a plague fall upon both your covens! They’ve turned me into food for the worms. I’m done for. Curse your families!” 
He collapses to the ground and Kai kneels, cradling his best friends dead body. Thunder booms and it starts to sprinkle, turning into a heavy rain. 
Benvolio whispers, “Mercutio is dead.”
Kai cries out, “Oh sweet y/n! Your beauty has made me weak, you have softened my bravery when before I was hard as steel.”
The sound of Tybalt’s car peeling off brings back cold reality. Kai’s sadness turns to uncontrollable rage. He runs to his car, in an effort to head him off. The rain is now blinding but Kai stops for nothing. Pedestrians scream and cars screech to a stop. He rounds a corner and slams into Tybalt’s car, veering out of control. Tybalt scrambles from his car and Kai runs toward him. Tybalt draws his gun but Kai continues to march on.
“Go on! Kill me so I can join him!” 
Tybalt nervously starts to walk backward.
“Either kill me or I will kill you!”
He shakes his head in panic, Kai flicks his wrist sending Tybalt’s gun into the air.
“Why did you come between us?”
Kai remains silent. Police cars screech to a halt, surrounding the area. The gun lands back in Kai’s hand and he fires three shots.
“Put down the weapon!” A police officer calls through a megaphone. 
Tybalt’s body collapses to the road. A cop fires, grazing Kai’s arm and he screams. 
“Oh! I have awful luck!”
A strong gust of wind and rain blinds the police. Balthasar drives up and starts screaming.
“Don’t just stand there! Come on!”
Kai quickly slides into the passenger seat, holding his wounded arm and crying. 
Lady Cadell pulls up to the scene and runs to crouch over the body. “Tybalt! Oh my sweet nephew. My family’s blood is spilled on the streets.” 
The Captain parts through the police line. “Where are the men who started the fight?”
A hand cuffed Benvolio is pushed forward. “Captain, I can tell you everything about the fight. Tybalt killed your relative Mercutio and then young Kai killed him.”
Lady Cadell begins to scream again. “Tybalt was my nephew! Oh my nephew is dead! Captain, you are honorable, take revenge by killing someone from the Parker family.”
The Captain ignores her and turns to Benvolio. “Benvolio, who started this fight?”
“Tybalt started the fight before he was killed by Kai. Kai spoke to him reasonably and didn’t want to start a fight but rather make a truce. Tybalt refused and was deaf to peace!”
Lady Cadell interjects savagely, “He’s lying! I want justice, Kai killed Tybalt so Kai must be killed!”
The Captain, losing his patience turns to the woman. “Kai killed him after Tybalt killed Mercutio.”
Malachai’s father, Sir Parker l arrives and begins to plead with the Captain as well. “Please Captain, don’t make Malachai pay the price. He was Mercutio’s friend. His death has been avenged by Tybalt’s. It is even.” 
The Captain eyes him coldly. “And for the crime of murder, Malachai is exiled from Mystic Falls. You have involved me in your rivalry. My nephew Mercutio is dead because of your bloody feud.”
“But Captain-” Parker starts to plead. 
The Captain silences him, “I will not listen to your excuses and your begging will not change my mind.” He turns to address his officers. “Tell Malachai to leave the city immediately or else if he is found he will be killed.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * Your bedroom* * * * * * * * * * * *
“I wish the sun would hurry up and set already so night can come immediately. Because when the night comes and everyone goes to sleep, then my Kai will come to me, leap into my arms and no one will know. Gentle night, give me my Kai and when I die, turn him into the stars and make a constellation in his image. His face will make the heavens so beautiful that the whole world will fall in love with him. I belong to Kai now, this day has been so long, waiting for him.”
A car pulls up into the driveway and you rush down excited to meet the nanny. Your knees buckle and you fall to the ground at her news. 
“Oh god! Did Kai kill Tybalt?”
“He did, he did! This is a most cursed day!”
“He’s like a snake disguised as a flower. Was there ever such an evil book with such a beautiful cover? I can’t believe such evil lurked inside someone so beautiful!”
“There is no trust, faith or honesty in men. All of them lie, cheat and are wicked. Shame on Malachai!”
“How dare you wish shame upon him! He was not born to be shameful. He deserves only honor, I was an idiot to be angry at him.”
“How can you say such good things about the man who killed your cousin?”
“Am I supposed to speak badly about my own husband? Oh my husband! How could I speak bad of him when we’ve only been married 3 hours? Kai why did you kill my cousin? Probably because my cousin would have killed my husband. It is comforting to know my husband is alive, but I am crying still because he has been banished. This is worst than the murder of 10,000 Tybalts. No words can express my pain. Nanny, where are my father and mother?”
The nanny gets down to comfort you. “They are mourning the death of Tybalt. Go to your room, I’ll send Kai to comfort you. I know where he is.”
You look up through tears. “Please hurry and find him. Tell him to come and say his final good bye.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the church * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
The priest leads the nanny into a bedroom. Kai lays on the bed, shirtless and bandaged.
“Nanny!”
The woman rushed to his side.
“Tell me about y/n. Where is she? Is she okay? What does my hidden wife say about our ruined love?”
“She doesn’t say anything. She just cries and cries. She falls down but when she tries to get up, she just calls your name and collapses again in tears.”
Kai has started to cry uncontrollably, “She calls out my name as if I were a bullet murdering her, just like her cousin.”
The priest shakes Kai, “I thought you were smarter and more rational than this! Your y/n is alive, you should be happy. Tybalt wanted to kill you, but you killed him. Be happy that you’re alive. You have been banished, not sentenced to death. Be happy about that. Your life is full of blessings.”
Kai has calmed down and the priest helps him get changed into a new white shirt. 
“Go. Go to your wife and comfort her. Get out of here before daybreak. Good night.” 
The priest ushers Kai out of the church and gives him one last handshake good bye. Kai and the nanny sprint towards the car.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the mansion* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
Dave stands by your father holding flowers awkwardly. Your mother comes down the staircase solemnly.
“She refuses to come out of her room.”
Dave replies calmly, “It’s understandable. These times of pain are bad for romance. Good night ma’am, give your daughter my regards.”
“I will. And I’ll find out what she thinks about marriage tomorrow morning but tonight she is shut up with sadness.” The three leave down the hallway.
* * * * * * * * * * In your room* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
You are softly crying into your pillow when you feel a hand gently touch your face. Your eyes dart up to see Kai standing above you. There’s a still moment of disbelief. Leaning down, Kai kisses away the tears that fall from your wide y/e/c eyes. Your lips find his and he gently sinks back into the bed with you.
* * * * * * * * * * Back in the living room* * * * * * * * * * 
Your father sits reclined in an armchair. Dave and your mother sit opposite him. He whips himself in a drunken frenzy of excited thoughts.
“My sir, I’ll make a desperate argument for my daughter’s love. I think she’ll do whatever I say- no - I think she’ll do that and more. I have no doubt about it. Wait- what day is today?”
Dave answers, “Monday, sir.”
“I will talk to her tomorrow about marrying you on Thursday. Does that sound good to you?”
Dave tries to catch up, stunned at the suddenness. Your father eyes him.
“Sir- I wish Thursday was tomorrow. It sounds wonderful.”
Your father raises his glass to toast and they stand. “Well go home. Thursday it is then.” He turns to your mother, “Go see y/n to prepare her. Tell her to get ready for her wedding on Thursday.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * * Your room* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
Morning time comes, shining light upon yours and Kai’s bodies tangles together. You lie blissfully asleep. Balthasar’s car quietly pulls into a side road near the estate. Sitting up suddenly, Kai wakes up remembering where he is. Sitting on the side of the bed he starts to get dressed. You silently wake up and climb onto his back, kissing him gently on the neck.
“You’re leaving already? The day has just begun.”
Kai turns and softly strokes your cheek. “If I want to live I must leave now, if I stay then I will die.” 
You sigh in resignation. “You’re right, you have to go. Now leave before it gets any lighter!” 
You frantically help Kai get dressed. You both freeze when there is an urgent knock on the door.
“Y/n!”
“Nanny!” 
“Your mother is coming to your room!”
You hurriedly usher Kai out to the balcony. 
“Good bye my love, one last kiss and I will leave.”
You caress his face and whisper. “Do you think we will meet again?”
“I have no doubt.” Kai smiles up at you and heads down the wall. 
You turn at your mother’s voice at the door. “Good morning y/n! Are you awake?” Your mother walks in right after you hastily flop back into bed. She crosses over to the window, opening the curtains to let light in. 
“You have a caring father. He has arranged a day of joy to end your sadness. A day you did not expect and that I did not look for.”
You try to play along. “What day is that?”
Your mother takes a deep breath in. “You will be married to the handsome and charming governor’s son! You will go to the church and there become his wife.”
You are too stunned, “By Saint Peter he will not make me his wife!”
A look of fear crosses your mother’s face. “Here comes your father, tell him that yourself.”
Cadell with a whiskey glass in hand, barges calmly into your room. “Have you told her what we have decided?”
“Yes, but she refuses to and says thank you. I wish the foolish girl was dead and married to her grave.”
Your father becomes dangerously calm. “How could she refuse? She should be grateful and proud of the match we’ve made. She’s not worthy of the gentleman.”
“I am not proud of what you have decided for me. I am thankful that you tried. I can’t be proud of something I hate, but I can be thankful it was done out of love.”
He thinks for a moment, then throws his glass across the room, shattering it against the wall. “You are a spoiled little girl and not really showing me any pride or thanks. You are going to get married to the governor’s son on Thursday. I will drag you there if I have to.”
You try to move into the hallway but he grabs your shoulders, shaking you. 
“Please listen to me...” you beg.
“NO! You will not speak back to me.” 
Your father throws you to the ground and you sob. His hand slaps you across the face. 
“Are you insane?!” Your mother retorts and he responds by backhanding her face.
“You disgust me y/n. My worthless daughter!”
The nanny gets between you and your father. “God bless her! You are wrong to berate her like that!”
Your father now furious, shoves the nanny aside and grabs your face up. “I’ll tell you what- you WILL get married at that church on Thursday or you will never show your face to me again. I will disown you and you can die on the streets, I swear to god!” He storms away down the stairs while you lay huddled on the floor. 
“Mother, please don’t disown me! Delay this marriage as long as you can or I will kill myself!”
She looks at her lip in the mirror and speaks softly. “Don’t talk to me because I will not say a word. Do whatever you want, I don’t care anymore.” Your mother turns and leaves.
You beg your nanny, “Please nanny! Tell me how I can stop this!”
The nanny doesn’t respond and sits in a heavy silence, moving towards you. 
“Please give me words of comfort!”
“Listen to me, I think it would be a good idea for you to marry this man. Malachai has been banished and can’t return unless he is undercover. I think you could be happy with the governor’s son, you are no use to Kai anyway.”
You stay still. “Do you honestly mean this?”
“I do.”
You decide to play along, despite the pain of faking. “You’ve comforted me a lot nanny. Tell me mother I am going to the priest to confess and be forgiven for angering my father.”
“Alright, I will. That’s a good idea.”
* * * * * * * * * * At the church* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
The priest stands at the front of the church with Dave talking about what will happen on Thursday. 
“Her father wants us to rush and be married very soon.”
Just then you walk into the church, not expecting to see them there.
“Look! There is the woman who is my wife!”
“That might be the case sir, after I’m married.” You respond icily, one hand hidden resting on a pistol.
“That ‘might be’ will be on Thursday.”
“What must be will be.” You walk down the isle coolly.
The priest states, “That is a certain truth.”
“Did you come here to confess?” Dave inquires.
“If I answered that question, I’d be confessing to you, Dave.”
You and the Father turn to leave and Dave starts to excuse himself. “Y/n, I will marry you early on Thursday morning. Until then, good bye.”
You give him a stone cold glare as he leans forward and kisses your cheek.
“Keep this kiss, and goodbye for now..”
As soon as Dave left, you stormed into the backroom, the priest following your lead. “Y/n, I already know about your sad situation.”
“Tell me how I can prevent it, Father.”
“I’ve heard you must marry a man on Thursday and that nothing can delay it.”
“If you’re so smart but can’t help me, then you will call my solution smart and I’ll solve it by myself.” 
You pull the gun out and point it at your head. Horrified, the priest moves to stop you but you panic and point the gun at him.
“Hold on, y/n!” He holds out a soothing hand. “I have an idea. But we must act boldly because the situation is so desperate. If you’re so desperate you would kill yourself instead of marrying Dave, then you must be desperate enough to try something similar to death to solve this problem. Come with me to the greenhouse.
You obey, eager and desperate to try anything on the face of the earth to be with your love.
The priest holds up a little vial with a blue liquid in it. “When you are in bed, drink this. The sleep inducing drug will run through your veins and stop your pulse. Your body will turn cold, you’ll stop breathing and you become so pale, your family and Dave will think you are dead. You will stay like this for 42 hours and then you’ll wake up like you’ve only been sleeping. They will take you to the family vault. I will tell Kai about the plan and he will come to you and take you far away.” The priest cautiously hands you the vial.
* * * * * * * * * * * * Later that night* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * 
At a trailer park out of town a mail truck pulls up to a bland looking trailer. The mail man knocks loudly at the door with the letters from the priest. Kai is too busy with his headphones to hear the knocking. The mail man shrugs and slips a ‘WE CALLED’ note under the door.
* * * * * * * * * * * * The Cadell mansion* * * * * * * * * * * * 
It is the night before the wedding and you stand in front of a mirror. Two od the maids hold up your wedding dress, fussing over which shoes match the best. Disinterested you point to a pair and satisfied, the maids leave.
“Nanny will you please leave me alone tonight?”
“Why?” The nanny asks as you guide her to the door.
“I have to say a lot of prayers so the heavens will bless me. You know I am troubled and full of sin.”
The nanny leaves, shutting the door. Confident that you are alone, you rush to the bedside table and pull out the glass vial. 
You whisper, “What if this mixture doesn’t work? Will I be forced to marry Dave?”
You cautiously begin to unscrew the tiny black lid. Suddenly there is a knock on the door. You palm the vial and turn to see your mother walk in. 
“Do you need my help?”
“No, we’ve already figured out what I’m wearing tomorrow. So if it’s okay with you, I’d like to be alone now.”
You slip into bed and your mother sensing your unease nods. “Good night then.”
“Good night!” Your words surprise her and she smiles, closing the door. “There’s a slight cold fear running through me. I have to go through with this.” 
You bring the vial to your lips and toss your head back. You have a sudden violent convulsion and then collapse backward, face painted with fear.
It is morning time, the sun light shines down on an ambulance and police cars in front of the house.
One of the medics speaks over the radio. “Drugs?”
The second medic responds, “Yes, a deadly amount. She overdosed.”
The family numbly enter the house again, wedding decorations mocking their pain. The priest enters your bedroom, kneeling by your side and quickly checks your pupils. He pockets the vial and looks toward the undertaker.
“She is ready to go to the church.”
The man dressed in black nods. “We will take her to the Cadell vault.”
Balthasar, hearing the news of your death, rushes away to tell Kai.
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * At the trailer park* * * * * * * * * * * * 
Kai is sitting at his table, writing in his notebook, still not paying attention to the ‘WE CALLED’ card. Balthasar’s car speeds to a stop in front of the trailer and an excited Kai rushes out. 
“What is it Balthasar?”
Balthasar is too stunned to speak.
“Did you bring me the letters from the priest? How is y/n?”
Balthasar does not know how to word what he has come to tell Kai, and looks away. “She’s not well, she lies dead in the Cadell vault.”
For a long moment, Kai is still and when he speaks, his voice is chillingly calm. “Is it really true?”
Balthasar nods. Kai turns and stares out into the distant wasteland.
“Then I hate the stars!” he moves to the car. “I have to see her tonight.”
Balthasar tries to hold him back, “Just wait-”
“Leave me alone!” Kai roars, pushing him against the car.
“You look pale and wild as if you’re going to hurt yourself.”
“Well, you’re wrong. Leave me alone. Do you have a letter from the priest?”
“No I don’t.”
Kai shakes his head and smiles, “Nevermind. I’ll go see her tonight.” Kai hops into the passenger seat and Balthasar reluctantly gets behind the wheel. The car roars out of the park and Kai silently whispers, “I am coming to be with you tonight, y/n.”
* * * * * * * * * * * * At the church* * * * * * * * * * * * 
The priest speaks into a phone, concerned. “Did Malachai get my letter?”
The mailman responds, “No. He didn’t answer the door.”
The priest hangs up the phone and looks at the time. “I need to get to the vault, y/n will be waking up withing an hour.” 
* * * * * * * * * * * * At the cemetary* * * * * * * * * * * * 
Balthasar’s car pulls into the cemetary’s driveway and Kai hops out.
“Give me your flashlight.” Opening the trunk he pulls out a crowbar.
“Kai just listen to me.”
Kai turns around a punches him hard causing him to fall down, blood spilling from his nose. “Go and stay away from me or I will tear you apart!”
Balthasar rises slowly, both boys are trying not to cry.
“My plan is wild and savage, more fierce than a starving tiger.”
“I will go and leave you alone.”
Kai smiles and the boys hug. “Go live and be happy, good bye my friend.”
They part ways and Kai goes to the mausoleum, starting to pry the door open.
“You horrible mouth of death. You’ve taken the most precious girl on earth away from me. I will tear your jaw open.” 
Kai grunts and with a final heave, the door scrapes open. All is silent inside, flickering candle light the hallway.
“Despite my hatred for you beast, I’ve come to give you another body.”
Roaming the hallway he finds your coffin, collapsing to his knees he cries out. “Oh! How often are men happy before they die!”
* * * * * * * * * * * * Outside the mausoleum* * * * * * * * * * * * 
The priest thumps the steering wheel in frustration as he slowly pulls into the graveyard. “I am afraid something terrible is going to happen.” The priest shakes his head in horror seeing the vault’s door broken open.
* * * * * * * * * * * * Inside the mausoleum* * * * * * * * * * * * 
Kai pushes aside the lid and kneels by your figure. Moonlight streams in, lighting your beautiful face as you sleep.
“Oh my beautiful wife! Death has sucked the life out of you but it did not take away your beauty.” Unconscious tears fall from his eyes as he continues, “Ah y/n, why are you so beautiful? Should I believe death has fallen in love with you and he keeps you away from me? I hate that death, so I will stay with you and never leave this vault! Let me kiss you one last time!”
Kai kisses your lips one last time. Your hand twitches but he doesn’t notice. He pulls out a vial of poison he stole and drinks it quickly. He convulses and falls, his head resting on your body. Kai fights for breath and you wake up, becoming aware of Kai. 
“Kai? Is that you?” You sit up and cradle his head in your lap.
His clear wide eyes stare back up at you but he is unable to move, save for his weak breaths. You find the vial in his hand and start to cry.
“He drank it all and left none for me. I will kiss his lips, maybe there is some poison still on them to make me die with him.” You delicately kiss Kai on the lips. In a broken hearted whisper, “his lips are still warm.”
Desperately you both cling to each other. With all his might, Kai whispers, “Thus, with a kiss I will die.” 
His breathing stops, there is only silence from him as you sob, hugging his lifeless form.
“Malachai, oh my sweet Kai.” You look to the gun in his jacket.
* * * * * * * * * * * * Outside* * * * * * * * * * * * 
The priest hurries to the entrance of the vault when a gunshot rings out.
“God have mercy! Y/n? Malachai?”
His breath escapes him, coming upon the tragic scene. There, under the statue of Saint Peter, lie Kai and y/n. United again in death. 
THE END!

Nothing But The Truth ~ Kai Parker One Shot
Tumblr media
*not my gif
Pairing: siphon!Kai X witch!Saltzman!Reader
Word Count: 3,388
Requested?: Yes
This is a sequel to "I'd Rather You Lie." I've done my best to make sure this piece is readable as a one shot, but if you'd like to read the prequel, please read it here.
This IS a reader insert fic; I just don’t like writing with Y/N in the place of names. Use Rosalie/Rosie/Rose as a placeholder for Y/N :)
Description: Kai betrayed her trust, used her for his own selfish means. Now, he can't bear the pain and hurt he's caused her. Malachai understands now that he loves her, but is love enough to mend a broken heart?
Warnings: angst/heartbreak and minor mature language
The story begins after the break! I hope you enjoy reading it :)
“I’d rather you lie.” 
It was easier for Rosalie when he lied. It had been easier to believe it was real. Now, she’d heard the lies so often she couldn’t possibly know what was true anymore. Kai’s ramblings came to a halt. Rose’s smile was more akin to a grimace. There were no tears in her eyes; there was nothing in her eyes as if there was no soul behind them.
Malachai had hurt many people in his life. He’d murdered his siblings, and he’d spent years torturing himself. Somehow, this emptiness in her was worse than all the damage he’d done combined. “Rosalie…” She just shook her head, walking passed him. There was still no emotion on her face as she hugged her winter jacket around her body. Kai watched her walk away, feeling the snow settle in his hair. The cold did not compare to all the pain that consumed him. 
He tried to take a shaky breath. With a choked gasp and unbearable pain in his heart, Malachai watched her until she became a speck of dust in the distance. The worst part of it all? She didn’t turn to look back at him once.
~
Was it his fault for breaking her heart, or was it hers for allowing him to hold it in the first place? Her brain and heart grappled over this question every night, making it impossible to sleep. Thanks to Kai, she couldn’t return to the life she’d once loved. There was nothing left inside her that would allow her to love. 
It wasn’t as if Rose was a stranger to pain. She’d been abandoned by people before. The people who brought her into the world had died. The ones who adopted her into their home as a child saw her as only a paycheck. Even Alaric was dead for a few years before miraculously coming alive again. None of those heartaches had destroyed her in the same way Malachai had.
Perhaps it was because it was her first time truly being in love. She couldn’t feel anything anymore, not even anger. Though her mind and heart disagreed on whose fault it was, they both knew feeling the agony of that betrayal would consume her.
For now, all she could do was continue existing in an endless cycle – school, work, Dad, friends, eat, sleep, repeat. ~
A new semester was starting after winter break, and Rosalie considered it a fresh start. She would put herself out there again; she’d try to come back to life. Rose was sitting in a large lecture hall, waiting for the professor of her creative writing course to arrive. She twirled her stylus around her fingers, making random doodles on her iPad. Someone sat down a few seats away from her, but she paid them no mind. 
The hall continued to fill, and Professor Smith arrived ten minutes late. She was fun, and her quippy nature made up for the tardiness. Listening to a professor review a syllabus wasn’t boring for once. Rosalie was paying close attention, jotting down miscellaneous notes about due dates and assignment details. 
“Your final paper, worth 30% of your grade, will be a writing piece: eight to ten pages long with attention to all topics and techniques we’ll review throughout the semester. Students who do best on this assignment never fail to present their learnings in a unique, refreshing way. Nothing should limit your imagination. Isn’t that right, boy who can’t stop staring at the girl in his row?”  Rose was looking at the professor when she singled out the student not listening. As did the other students, she, too, looked around to see who the professor was scolding. Her grip slackened on her stylus as she heard his voice a few feet away. She would know that voice anywhere. “Y-yes, Professor. I’m sorry.” The professor nodded and continued. Malachai stole one more glance in her direction when the professor’s back was turned, and his eyes met Rosalie’s after weeks of not seeing each other.
~
Before he could talk to her, Rose rushed out of the lecture hall. Was he stalking her now? Swallowing away the bitter taste in her mouth, Rosalie instinctively made her way to her dad’s office. Glancing at the time, she knew Alaric was giving a lecture. Unlocking the door with magic and locking it behind her, Rose collapsed onto the couch. Her head fell into her hands, and her foot tapped against the ground anxiously. 
Rosalie hadn’t yet asked her dad for Kai’s true story. She didn’t want to know it anymore; she told herself she didn’t care about him and whatever was causing him pain. Whether she would admit it or not, Rosalie was lying to herself, just as Kai had lied to her for weeks. 
She stayed in the same spot for hours, finally looking up when she heard the door unlock. Alaric smiled at his daughter, unsurprised to find her here. This was a first-day-of-the-semester tradition for them – tea in his office and unpacking what happened in their new classes. Ric turned on the hot water kettle, pulling out mugs and tea for them. He only noted her troubles when she greeted him without energy, and his smile faded quickly. “Rosalie? What’s the matter?” 
Rose sighed deeply, not knowing where to start. “I need you to tell me everything about Kai, Dad. Please.” The turmoil had been suppressed long enough; she bit the bullet and watched Ric’s expression twitch. He didn’t say anything for a few minutes. Hot water and honey were poured into their mugs. Rose kicked her shoes off, curled her legs under her, and claimed the steaming cup of tea. The silence was broken only when Alaric sat beside her on the couch.
He was torn about how much he should involve her but hiding the truth from Rose allowed Kai to hurt her. Ric wouldn’t hide things from her anymore. “Malachai is Josette’s twin brother.” A confused expression came over Rose’s face immediately. “Jo is in her early 40s. How is that possible?” To his credit, Alaric told her everything without biased embellishments, telling her the story exactly as Jo told him. 
Of course, even he didn’t know the story from Malachai’s perspective. 
He told her about how Kai was meant to merge with Jo and become the leader of the Gemini coven, how he was never worthy of the position. When he found out the thing he lusted after for twenty-two years would never be his, Kai snapped, murdering four of his little siblings in cold blood. Kai stuck a hunting knife into Josette and took out her spleen. Ultimately, he was after Lucas and Olivia. The Coven locked him up in a prison world, and he escaped when Bonnie and Damon ended up there after the Other Side collapsed.
Rosalie listened to everything, finding it impossible to believe that the guy she knew – the guy she thought she knew – was capable of all of this. Even as she left her dad’s office, Rose repeated the story in her mind. There had to be more to this story. No one was born evil. Something must have happened to Kai - something so horrible and cruel that his only choice was to protect himself this way. 
Alaric had heard the story from Jo, but he hadn’t seen the tears Kai shed when no one was around to see them. Whatever caused him to snap tormented him even now, and no one should live that way. Despite this, Rosalie didn’t have it in her to forgive him. Maybe it was selfish, but he’d used someone who trusted him for reasons she could barely justify. 
The door to her apartment closed behind her. Trying to push the thoughts away, Rose walked over to her fridge. She pulled it open, and the wave of cool air sent her mind reeling back…
Even on the drive back to Mystic Falls, her thoughts were consumed with Kai. He’d kissed her, and then he disappeared. What kind of decent person does that? Rosalie had begun to think that maybe she didn’t know Malachai at all. Her thoughts would be proven right a few minutes later.  When Rose entered the Salvatore House, she heard the flames of the fireplace crackling and voices coming from the living room. “How do you know my daughter?” Her dad was threatening someone, holding them by their neck as he tilted the chair towards the fireplace. Damon forced him away, trying to calm Alaric down. “Easy, Papa Bear. Kai’s going to cooperate. Talk. Now.”  Kai? Her Kai? No… “Didn’t you know? I’ve been dating her for a while. Here I thought she told you everything, Alaric. Of course, she thinks it’s real, which is sweet, really. At least someone among us has a heart.”  Kai kept on talking, but she heard none of it. It was as if her senses had been disconnected from her brain. “She’s just so welcoming… it was so easy to step into her life. I could get into all of yours and take what I’ve always wanted. But you really didn’t need to torture me to get that out of me, did you? I think I’m an excellent communicator.”  Damon and her dad had already seen Rose standing there, and when Damon forced Kai’s chair around, she registered the briefest flicker of remorse in his eyes. She didn’t have it in her to care, not right now. All she did was turn around and leave. The air outside felt so much colder than she could bear. It bit her cheeks as tears filled her eyes. Rosalie refused to let them fall. She would not cry over someone who was using her.
The tears that had refused to spill all those months ago came bubbling to the surface. Her knees buckled below her, and her hands rushed to cover her mouth as a pained scream came out. All the agony at his betrayal created burning trails on her cheeks, and as she curled up on the ground, her shoulders shook with each sob. 
Rosalie finally let herself admit that she had loved Malachai: she probably still did. She’d put her heart into someone’s hands for the first time and this was what she earned in return. Nothing in her life felt fair. How many more people would hurt her before she could finally be free? 
The anguish she’d failed to acknowledge and process now took over. It subsided hours later when the chill from the open fridge had coated her spine and the door beeped in protest. Rose gave it a weak push and it creaked shut. 
She’d loved him, and now she didn’t think she could love anymore.
~
Caroline smacked a piece of paper down on the table in front of Rosalie. “The annual Whitmore Bitter Ball is on Saturday, and you’re coming.” Rose picked up the flyer, smiling without amusement at the clashing black and grey letters. “Come onnnn, you’re the one that’s most bitter in love out of any of us.” 
Elena and Bonnie gave Caroline a withering stare, while Rose just shook her head. “Sorry… insensitive.” She cleared her throat, trying to dispel the awkwardness. “You should come, Rosalie. We all deserve a night out.” Elena was gently encouraging in stark contrast to Caroline. Rose didn’t know how she felt about it. “Okay, dance or no dance, at least come dress shopping with us? We need your opinions.” Truthfully, it sounded dreadful. After a long blink, Rosalie smiled and agreed. “Fine. It’ll be just like high school.” It wouldn’t be for her; it would be for her friends.
A few hours later, Rosalie was walking between aisles upon aisles of dresses. Some were gaudy and drew way too much attention. Some were too plain for a ball. Then again, maybe plain was best – something that could help her hide in the shadows as she attended the dance for the sake of her worried friends. 
Rose ultimately chose a silken, black gown. It had an attractive sweetheart neckline and golden embellishments around the waist. The skirt didn’t puff out obnoxiously, and with a golden mask to abide by the masquerade policy, it was the perfect disguise.
~
On Saturday evening, Rosalie found herself standing in the corner of the grand ballroom. People were all over the place: some drunk, some dancing, some crying, and some doing all of the above. Rose watched people move about behind her mask, twirling the straw around in her gin and soda with extra limes. She’d promised Caroline she’d stay out for an hour, and thankfully, the hour was almost up. 
Downing her drink, Rosalie walked across the dance floor. She had managed to artfully avoid the masses until she reached the bar. The glass clinked down onto the granite counter, right beside someone also attending this ball alone. He turned around slowly, setting down his own glass. They looked at each other silently for a few heavy seconds, neither saying a word. 
Malachai’s eyes shined in the dim lighting of the ballroom, swimming with numerous feelings yet glistening with the joy of seeing her. Rosalie’s expression remained passive, unreadable. She’d cried her heart out already. What was the next step in the process of healing from heartbreak? 
“I don’t know how a ball for the brokenhearted could be such a hit,” Kai said. Rose smiled without amusement, looking around at the crowd once again. “You never know, maybe lots of people have broken hearts around here.” Malachai swallowed away the knot of emotion in his throat, his eyes darting to the dance floor. “Maybe you’re right.”
He refused to meet her eyes, and it sparked something inside her. It was some convoluted mixture of rage, pain, desperation, and, most unexpectedly, a tinge of hope. “Dance with me?” She held out her hand to him in challenge. Kai’s gaze flit between her hand, the dancing couples, and the gleam in her eyes. Whatever brought it back, he’d missed it dearly. He took her hand, leading her to join the crowds. 
Rose let out a soft laugh at the song change, wondering if Caroline had something to do with the music. War of Hearts played over the speakers as Kai’s hand came to rest on her waist. Their fingers linked together, and this time, everything else fell away. 
Come to me in the night hours. I will wait for you.
Both recalled the same memories as they stepped in unison. Their awkward first interaction in the coffee shop. The first date where Kai was trying to be charming but ended up spilling soda all over his shirt. His tears when the thoughts of his past tormented him. The devastation they both felt when Rosalie found out about Malachai’s betrayal. 
“Have you been stalking me, by the way?” Kai almost smiled, his brow rising. “Would you believe me if I said I had no idea you’d be in the same section?” He twirled her around, pulling her back to him. “Honestly, I don’t know what I’m supposed to believe, Malachai.” 
She’d been the only one who could use his full first name without making him flinch. Her eyes narrowed in suspicion, and Kai sighed, resigned with himself. “I don’t know what I can say, Rose. You have every right to not trust me. Let me just ask you one thing, and then I will leave you alone.”
I can’t help but love you, even though I try not to. I can’t help but want you. I know that I’d die without you.
“Do you honestly think I didn’t break my own heart when I broke yours?” His arms wrapped around her as Kai selfishly pulled her close. If this was the last time, he needed to hold her close. The back of his hand brushed her cheek, and he memorized the feel of her soft skin. He was close enough to see the reflection of his dark, satin mask in Rosalie’s eyes. 
Rose didn’t know how to react. Her first instinct was to say no. He had sounded so convincing when he gloated to Ric and Damon about how he used her. How could that be the voice of someone with a broken heart? That same person stood in front of her now, looking at her with deeper affection and sincerity unlike anything she’d known before. 
Rosalie held the hand brushing her cheek, wrapping her own around it before stepping away from Kai. “Malachai, I can’t do this again.” Kai had let her walk away once. He wouldn’t give up without a fight this time. “Please… I promise I won’t ever hurt you. I won’t lie to you. From now on, nothing but the truth.” 
I can’t help but be wrong in the dark, ‘cause I’m overcome in this war of hearts. I can’t help but want oceans to part, ‘cause I’m overcome in this war of hearts.
With those words, Rose threw her arms around Malachai and kissed him. Maybe it was wishful thinking, or maybe it was just plain stupid. It didn’t matter. Not trusting him had been so unendurably painful; even if he played her again, it would be worth it.
Kai froze in surprise for a fraction of a second, not expecting her to give him the one thing he wanted most. He took her face in his hands, suppressing a sob of relief and joy. Malachai brought her closer, hugging her flush against his body. 
People still danced around them, oblivious to the two souls who’d found each other and would never part again.
~
The end of the semester approached, faster than anticipated. Malachai and Rosalie had spent the last months together, and true to his word, he hadn’t lied to her… until tonight.
In his lonesome years in the prison world, Kai had honed his cooking and baking skills. Tonight, after a long week of finals, they were making Kai’s chocolate chip cookies – a recipe he’d refined and mastered over twelve years. Rosalie was whipping together browned butter and sugar, and Kai was chopping chunks of dark chocolate into shards with a knife. The apartment smelled like toasted sugar, and their playful banter brought them much-needed laughter. 
“Where’d you put the vanilla extract I brought over?” Rosalie was looking in Kai’s kitchen drawers, and just as she reached one near the edge of the counter, he stepped in front of her. “Not in that one! There’s nothing in that one. Let’s move on.” Why was he in such a rush to get her away from that drawer? 
“Malachai… what are you hiding from me?” He sighed and stepped aside, remembering his promise to her. Rose didn’t take her eyes off him as she opened the drawer. Looking down, she halted in shock at the only object inside: a small black jewelry box.
Kai grabbed it before she could, putting it behind her back. She gave him a look, raising her eyebrows in question. “What are you hiding from me?” She repeated her question, her voice even more pointed, now with curiosity rather than suspicion. Adorably anxious, Kai nipped at his lower lip and tugged at his hair momentarily. 
Setting the box on the kitchen counter, Kai flipped its lid. Within it, tucked into cushioned velvet, lay matching silver rings. They were similar in style to the ones Malachai often wore, the metal bands thick and fairly plain. He removed them both, showing her the inscription inside the bands: nothing but the truth.
“This isn’t a proposal. Not yet, at least.” Kai’s nervousness didn’t help him get these words out, but when he looked up, looking into her eyes, suddenly it was much easier. “I wanted us to have something that reminds us of our journey and how far we’ve come. I want us to have these.” Before he said anything more, Kai slipped his ring onto his middle finger. Rosalie accepted his gift and put on her ring. She took his hand and laced their fingers together.  “Thank you, Kai,” Rose spoke with tenderness, holding Kai’s face. “I’ll never take it off.” Their lips met in a sweet kiss, and the smooth metal of their rings clinked together quietly. They squeezed each other’s hands lovingly, now certain neither would let go.

Masterlist | series Masterlist
Tumblr media
Paralysed, aching, vulnerable, crushed, tormented, dejected. Kai stood frozen in place, unable to move from the spot - feeling as heavy as lead, as empty as a dead man's eyes, as broken as the promises he had made. Time seemed to stand still as the boy watched the little red car drive away, it's silhouette only getting smaller and smaller as it drove further and further down the tarmac rode.
Then reality hit him. A sound of anguish tore from Kai, a heart-clenching sound that bounced menacingly off the street, filling the once-silent area with the noise of his sadness. It's stung is vocal chords, strained his mouth and rattle off his teeth.
Then it went quiet again.
His solemn footsteps filled the quiet night with a melancholy vibration as he paced quickly to his scratched-up car. He'd need to fix that - the damage could become suspicious. Getting inside, he started up the engine and drove off with little hesitation, desperate to get home and possibly hit something.
Kai bit back a wince at the sight of the crumpled up empty packet of pork rinds lazing on the passenger's seat, his mind flashback to every time Mack would make a sound of disgust whenever he'd start chewing obnoxiously on one. He quickly swiped his tears from his damp cheeks before focusing back on the road, gravel crunching meticulously under his tyres, the wet sound of the sticky tarmac the only noise accompanying the purr of the Jeep's engine.
Suddenly, Kai slammed the brakes so hard he was jerked forward in his seat, chest aching against the tight strain of his seatbelt. Kai gathered himself quickly, unbuckling himself and getting out of his car. With fast paces, he walked towards Ian's car that was laying abandoned at the side of the road - empty.
Kai walked around the car, vexing down to peer inside the windows yet he saw nothing. He stood back up, hands fisting his hair as he let out a frustrated groan. That's when he noticed the car keys strewn carelessly in the glistening grass. Kai's eyes blew wide, he picked them up and clicked the button.
Yellow-orange lights flashed from the red car.
"No no no." Kai muttered, yanking the driver's door open and rooting through the glovebox, the pouches on the back of seats, the boot, anything - not really knowing what he was looking for. A small, silver glint caught his eyes from the grass again - next to where the keys had been. Kai was quick to investigate, picking up the silver watch crested with the unmistakably Gemini symbol beneath the ticking hands.
Kai threw the piece of jewellery roughly at a nearby tree, letting out a shout of rage before he was running back to his car and jumping in - not even bothering to put on his seatbelt before he was driving at 100 miles an hour towards his house.
...
A groggy state filled Mack's clouded mind, a metallic rattling noise colliding with her ears like nails on a chalk board - jolting her sore body awake. Her head was hung low, toes dancing precariously on the gritty stone floor and arms strung up above her by long, thick chains. She was acutely aware of the persistent throbbing on the left side of her head, along with the stabbing pain echoing across her cheek. What she couldn't figure out was what caused them.
The second one was answered quickly.
"Wake up, girl!" A sharp voice boomed. "Fucking spells." The same voice muttered quietly after, the sound of footsteps fading away caressing Mack's ears painfully. A drawn-out groan tumbled from her lips, the sound of footsteps getting louder again. A pointed gasp escaped her as rough, strong fingers dug into her jaw, tilting her head upwards until she was looking into dark brown eyes.
"J-Joshua?" She croaked, voice shattered from her drowsy state. The man's lips curled into a menacing smirk, a dangerous flame flicking in his eyes. "What am I doing here?"
"All in good time, sweetheart. We just need to wait for my abomination of a son to arrive and the party can get started." Joshua spoke, a malevolent glint in his tone that made Mack sick to her stomach. He wasn't the good guy in this situation, and she definitely wasn't safe.
"W-what do you mean 'get started'" she stuttered out, eyes blown wide with fear as the man stalked around her - like a predator hunting its prey. A dark chuckled filled the tiny shed.
"You'll soon find out, my dear. No need to worry yourself, yet." Joshua cooed sinisterly in her ear, body looming behind Mack's and sending a crawling shiver up her spine that made the girl's entire body quake with terror.
"Joshua!" Mack gasped at the loud shout of Kai's voice, muffled by the creaky walls of the little shed. "Joshua get out here!" Kai bellowed and the feeling of Joshua's breath on the back of Mack's neck as he let out another deep, dark chuckled made the werewolf want to vomit.
"Show time." The witch murmured, an evil smirk gracing his thin lips.
A shrill scream ripped from Mack's throat, right knee buckling slightly but her hanging frame was kept up high but the ever-rattling manacles, causing a burning pain to spark in her upper torso where her body stretched. Mack didn't dare look, her eyes clenched shut as the pain climbed up her leg and through her body, head pounding.
"KENZ!" Kai boomed, the little, flimsy door of the shed flinging open, crashing into the weak wood behind it and shaking some of the shelves lining the walls. There he stood, panting and shaking with anger, eyes dark with an unreadable cloud as he stared at Mack's tear-stained face and the sight of his father stood with a smug smirk behind her.
"Nice of you to join us, Malachai." Joshua finned malevolently, another pained scream echoing from Mack as she felt a searing, sharp pain stabbing through her left arm. The burn didn't leave, the bones being torn apart by the harsh binding.
"Stop!" Kai shouted. "Leave her alone!"
"I don't think I will." Joshua smirked. "You see, I think you need to be taught a lesson. Ever since this girl has come into your life it's been nothing but trouble - mixing with werewolves, steeling magic...I might just have to lock you up." Joshua said, almost sing-songy towards the end. "But I'll start with getting rid of her." Joshua spat, just as three bones broke in Mack's body.
Her ear-piercing screams and pleas brought a siege of tears to Kai's eyes, but an amused glint to his father's.
"Why are you doing this to her." Kai demanded.
"To show you the monster she really is." Joshua said sternly, muttering a spell under his breath to speed up her transition.
"P-please! Make it stop! I can't take it anymore, please stop!" Mack cried, voice shattered with exhaustion and pain.
"Stop it! Just- take me instead! Punish me! Not her," Kai pleaded, eyes pooling with tears once again.
"Boy, don't you see that I already am? By hurting her I am hurting you much more." Joshua confirmed. When Mack looked up again, her eyes were rimmed with gold.
"Stop it!" Kai shouted. Joshua laughed darkly.
And then Mack was truly changing.
Joshua used his powers to disconnect the thick chains from the ceiling, instead rooting them to the concrete floor. And when he was finished, a wolf stood in Mack's place.
"Time for the grand finale." Joshua smirked, hand raising. "Phasmatos superous em animi..."
The pained whimpers of the wolf made Kai wince and Joshua laughed mockingly at him.
"Don't tell me you feel bad for it, Malachai?" Kai raised his head with anger storming in his eyes, yet he was helpless. The whimpering had stopped, the wolf's body still. A shift happened in Mack, her shaking body reverting back.
Kai was quick to rush to her side, arms wrapping around her and cradling Mack's body to his.
"I've got you, I'm here, Kenz. Please- please just come back to me, please." Tears dropped onto her cheeks, a salting sheen over her sweat covered skin and she slowly blinked awake.
A smile broke out on Kai's face, but it was soon replaced by a fearful grimace as her strained voice filled his ears.
"I love you, Kai. With all me heart. Remember that." Mack's lifeless eyes bore into the ceiling, shining with a gloss of tears, but lacking the glint of life they usually held.
Kai's lip trembled uncontrollably, wobbling as his grip on her body slowly loosened. He didn't even get to tell her he loved her one last time...
"I'm done!" Kai's voice bellowed, his tear stained face ripping away from Mack's limp body, rolling lifelessly from his lap and dropping to the stone-cold floor. Kai slowly raised to his feet, head raising. He looked straight into Joshua's eyes as he spoke, clearly. "Do you hear me!?" He continued, noting the way Joshua's throat bobbed as he sealed thickly, trying to contain the fear he suddenly felt for his son. "I lost everything! You made me lose everything!" Kai boomed, rage written over his features as he spun to face his father, face red.
Kai advanced on Joshua, hands fisting the older man's shirt collar tightly as he pushed him up against the gritty stone wall. Kai looked into his father's eyes as he spoke, heavy breaths panted between them as Joshua cracked - showing his first sign of fear towards his son since the first time he saw Kai siphon.
"And you will regret everything you ever did to me."

She’s Family
Kai Parker X Daughter!Reader Klaus Mikaelson X Adoptive Daughter!Reader
Word Count: 2278
Requested: @klausisahooottriiieee
Request: Hii! I am a huge fan of your blog and I was wondering if you could make this one. It's about Kai's biological daughter named Evelyn and when only he got out of the prison world, he learned about her. He did a research and he found that she is now Klaus's adopted daughter who he loves and adores very much. Hope is seventeen while Evelyn (Evie) is three years old. Btw there is peace in New Orleans. You could show about Klaus/Evie moments, Kai/Evie (she is shy with him) and Klaus/Kai/Evie. Evelyn is a truly sweetheart.
A/N: Still wrote it as a reader fic so that you can put in any name that you want, but the name is only mentioned once so doesn’t really change too much.
(Y/M/N) - Your Mother’s Name
Tumblr media
Hope had heard the teacher talking about you while she was at school, she heard the way that they talked about you, it was the same way that they used to talk about her and her father, they didn't want you there, they wanted to keep an eye on you and that was it, they had assumed that you were going to be a problem even though you had only just been born. Unfortunately for you, your mother had died in childbirth and that left you without a family because your father Kai Parker was trapped in the prison world. Hope decided that she knew a way that she could help you, she knew that you needed to be with people that wouldn't be scared of you or suppressing you from what she had heard about your father you were going to be strong.
Hope was home for the holidays when she decided to approach her family about her idea "hey Dad have you ever thought about me having a sister?" She asked. "Where is this coming from?" He asked. "I just wondered." She answered with a shrug and he raised an eyebrow, he'd been able to read her from the moment that he became her full-time father and he knew that there was something else going on in her mind. "I've never thought about it, you were enough work." He answered, taking a sip of the drink in his hand "now are you going to tell me why you asked this?" "Alright, fine." She sighed. "At school, I heard Alaric talking about someone, there was a baby that was just born." Hope started to explain. "And you expect me to take this baby?" Klaus asked with a small smirk on his face. "No Dad, I thought that maybe you could adopt her, they are all afraid of her because of who her Dad is and her mum is dead now." She explained, her voice took on a pleading tone and he looked at her. "Who is her father?" Klaus asked. "Malachai Parker," Hope answered, the moment that the name left her mouth, Klaus knew that she was right, he knew that they would all be afraid of you because of where you had come from and with Alaric being the one in charge of your schooling there would be a lot that he would keep from you. "And where is she now?" Klaus asked. "She's still at the hospital, apparently she'll be handed to the adoption agency soon," Hope answered and he nodded. "So does that mean that we are going to adopt her?" "We aren't going to do anything." He mumbled before waving her away "give me some time, I will let you know what I decide."
Ultimately Klaus decided that he wasn't going to let them stifle would be natural talent because of their fear, everyone in Mystic Falls was too quick to judge and while he had never thought about having another kid, he was not against it and if he didn't take you in now, he was going to end up doing it later when you started going to school with Hope. Klaus attempting to get a hold of you brought attention to him and the rest of Mystic Falls was in an uproar about it that was why Caroline was in the courtyard of his house. "Is there something I can help you with, Love?" Klaus asked, leaning against the banister of the first story. "What are you doing?" Caroline asked, raising an eyebrow. "Right now, I'm getting ready to take my daughter shopping." He answered. "You know that's not what I mean?" Caroline glared. "Why are you trying to adopt her, how do you know about her?" "Hope informed me of something that she heard you all talking about and she told me about how she always wanted a little sister," Klaus answered. "You expect me to believe that's the only reason that you're doing this?" Caroline asked. "When was the last time that I involved myself with you and yours?" He answered her question with one of his own. "I have finally made a safe home from me and my family, but maybe your ability to think the worst of me is the reason that I'm taking her from you." "I didn't-" "You can't help it but that's the problem, that child deserves a chance like anyone else, no matter her parents and you all can't seem to separate her from her father." Klaus explained, "you look at the baby like a threat and she hasn't even met the man that gave her that name." "Klaus-" "My decision to adopt her has nothing to do with you or your friends." He admitted as Hope appeared at the stairs "now if you'll excuse me."
The day that Klaus came home with you, all the Mikaelsons were so happy to have you in the house but they could all see that you were going to be attached to Klaus from here on out. None of them had known your mother so they had no idea what they were to expect but they knew that you could very well be able to use magic. "Niklaus, are you sure that this is the right thing to do?" Elijah asked, "we've just managed to get a family back together, everyone is happy and safe." "Yes, the perfect environment for a child." He mumbled as he ran a gentle finger down your cheek. "And if someone comes for her?" Elijah asked. "No one will come for her, they'll be happy to be rid of her." Klaus dismissed him "but if they ever did, I'd protect her with my life, she is family now." "Mmm." Elijah hummed "I can't deny that."
It was three years later that Kai managed to get out of the Prison World and while he had revenge on his mind he remembered that he had left someone behind, he remembered her as vividly as the betrayal of his family. Kai knocked on the door of your old apartment and the face that greeted him was not yours "Tell me where the previous owner is." He compelled the woman in front of him. "She died just over 2 years ago, they said that she died in childbirth." She answered. "Childbirth?" He asked and the woman nodded. "Where is the child?" He asked. "I don't know, she had no parents so they probably put her up for adoption," Kai growled as he walked away from the door, there was no way that they just let his child go, there was only one way that he was going to find her.
Kai walked into the school whistling a tune, eyes traveling over him for a second before moving away, that is until he saw a face that he recognised "Kai what are you doing here?" Alaric asked, taking up a defensive position in front of the few kids that had decided to stay at the school during the holidays. "Alaric nice to see you," Kai smirked as he leaned against the wall next to him. "So I went to see (Y/M/N). Imagine my surprise when I find out that she's dead." "That had nothing to do with me." He said quickly. "Really? Well, I'd be inclined to believe you if you showed me that baby that she was supposed to have had." Kai smirked, "or..." He disappeared from where he was standing wrapping his hand around Josie's throat "I start killing kids one by one." "Kai stop!" Alaric yelled. "Tell me where she is," He ordered as he tightened his grip around Josie's throat. "Dad, don't tell him." Josie managed to say. "Klaus Mikaelson adopted her, last time I heard she was in New Orleans! Please let her go." Lizzie spoke up. "New Orleans?" He asked. "Well then it looks like we're going on a family road trip, I hope you're not lying."
Klaus could hear you laughing in the kitchen, he was sure that you and Hope were in there making breakfast, he was sure that he had heard Elijah's low mumbling too. When he walked into the room, he saw Elijah sitting there with a newspaper and Hope had you in a chair at the table helping you eat your food. He could tell that you had gotten yourself dressed this morning because your top was on wonky. "What do we have here?" Klaus asked as you looked over at him and smiled. "Nik!" You cheered as you reached up towards him, he walked over and pressed a kiss to the top of your head as he straightened your top. "Finish your food and then we can wa-" "Mikaelsons!" You all heard the yell but you were the only one that didn't understand the implication. "Hope, stay with her, keep her safe and quiet," Klaus ordered as he walked out to the courtyard where Rebekah had Kai pressed into the table next to Kol whose feet were kicked up. "So do you want to tell us why you want to see our brother?" Kol asked, taking a bite out of the apple that he had in his hand. "Your brother has something of mine that I would like back," Kai answered, trying to pull himself free but that only caused Rebekah to tighten her grip. "She's not a possession, she's your daughter," Klaus said as he knocked Kol's feet off the table. "And I assume up until this day you didn't even know that she existed." "That doesn't matter." Kai dismissed him and Klais gestured for Rebekah to let him go as he sat down himself. "So tell me what are you here for?" Klaus asked. "I want to see her," Kai answered. "And after?" Elijah asked, taking his place standing behind Klaus. "After... I guess she'll come with me." He answered, they all turned to him, and he could see the disapproval on all their faces, they all seemed quite attached to you. "With all the enemies you have, there is no way that she would be safe," Rebekah argued. "I'm strong enough to keep her safe," Kai answered. "What do you even want her for, you don't know and you don't feel any allegiance to her," Klaus said. "I-" "You want to prove a point." Klaus interrupted him "show them that they can't take anything from you." "She's the only family I have left." Kai finally admitted. "Then keep her safe," Elijah ordered. "Why don't we just ask her?" Kol suggested. "Ask her?" Klaus asked. "She's smart for a toddler, she'll make the right decision, we'll all have to respect the choice that she makes." Kol shrugged. "Hope bring her in," Klaus ordered, his voice didn't raise as he waited to see both his daughters walk into the room, he stood from where he was sitting meeting you halfway and picking you up. "Okay?" You asked. "I'm okay," Klaus answered with a soft smile as he looked over at Kai. "Who is that?" You asked as you pointed at Kai. "That's your Dad," Klaus answered. "You, Dad." You frowned as you looked at Kai. "No, I look after you when Dad is away," Klaus answered, he moved closer to Kai but his hands tightened around you. "Are you going to say hello?" "Hello." You said quickly before burying your face in Klaus' neck. "Hi," Kai said softly, slightly stunned because you looked just like your mother, the smile that took over your face and the way you loop your hands into Klaus' shirt. "What's your name?" "(Y/N)." You answered though it was muffled because you didn't look up this time. "She looks just like her," Kai mumbled. "Her mother?" Hope asked as came to stand next to her father. "Mmm." Kai hummed, taking his phone out of his back pocket and turning the phone so that they could all see the lock screen, a picture of a woman who looked just like you, laughing at something. "If I had been there, I could have saved her." "There's no point in theorizing, we spent 1000s of years doing the same and it got us nowhere," Elijah said, "but I assume that she would want her daughter to be safe." "I get it. She's safer here with you." He nodded. "I'll make peace with my enemies or get rid of them and then I'll be able to be here for her." "Then go make peace with them." Klaus dismissed him and you lifted your head again to look at him. "Where are you going?" You asked. "I'll be back, I just have to take care of a few more things before I can stay with you." He promised as he took his necklace off and put it around your neck "your mum gave me this when we had to be apart and promised that this was a way that she could always find me." He said softly. "Did it work?" You asked. "Every time." He smiled. "So I'll find you once I finish my work okay?" "Okay." You nodded as you hid away again. "Keep her safe," Kai ordered. "Go." Klaus jutted his head towards the door "do not bring your trouble back here!" "Do you think that he will come back?" Elijah asked. "I do." Klaus nodded. "As do I but I worry that he's still grieving and the only thing that keeps him here is her connection to her mother." Elijah sighed. "We'll be here no matter what... She'll always have us." Klaus said as he watched the exit Kai and left through. "Like I said, she's family now."

honeymoon masterlist
word count: 3500
music: give me novacaine by green day
warnings: kai is being cold-blooded (duh)
“What’s the worst thing that can happen here?” you asked. You were pushing the shopping cart with Kai in it. It was called Grab Racing: you were supposed to push him as fast as you could, and he could only have whatever he managed to grab on the way, and then cook whatever he can out of the food he picked. After several dinners consisting of gummy cakes with mashed gummies and gummy based lemonade you changed the rules slightly, including some necessary healthy ingridients. You picked them yourself. If your prison world diet depended on Kai wholly, you’d soon get ulcer, even though your stomach couldn’t hurt because it reset back to normal every time after midnight.
He tried to reach for the shelf, but you passed it by already. Should’ve been quicker. You heard creaking and shuffling behind your back.
“Hey! No magic!” you stopped the cart.
“Stop wasting it”.
While at the stop, Kai nicked a pack of crisps from a shelf.
“Italian supermarkets are weird as hell”, you complained. “I wanna leave”.
“I thought you liked the sea air”, Kai argued.
“There are many other places with sea. What’s your favorite one?”
Kai paused, thinking. You both had to listen to ‘94 Italian supermarket music for a while. Supermarkets were by far the eeriest places on this abandoned Earth. Perhaps it was about the time you personally grew up with; they have been commercialized; they have been shown as places raided by zombies and aliens in the movies you watched as a child; they were lit in a specific way and had that special kind of symmetria, a calming system to them. Supermarkets, artificial, plastic and glass, were the manmade labirynths created for confusion and gluttony. The amount of twists and turns you had to do to find whatever you needed, the fact that you got lost every time no matter how many times you visited one and the same supermarket, the long aisles with colorful packages distracting a person from the realization the line they walk on represents their life and death... at first, it’s baby stuff: baby food, mashed fruits and stuff, baby clothes... then there’s cereal, milk and candy; then, all kinds of bathroom things, pads, shampoos, tooth brushes... followed by thick bars of chocolate, greying slowly and invisibly underneath the paper packaging... then, vegetables and fresh fruit, and finally, shovels. It’s hard to decipher it. It’s a wonderful experience, to visit a supermarket, even in a normal world. Here, they turned into absolutely magical, meaningful, empty witch spaces. You always expected something to happen at the supermarket.
Kai had no idea about how deep you thought about it.
“I don’t like water”, he said finally.
“How come? Afraid?”
“I’m not afraid of anything”, he said proudly. You gazed down at his stubborn dark hair, his head and shoulders in jean jacket. Kai loved his jean jackets. While all you did was hunted down crop tops and long earrings in here, he started possessing quite an impressive jean jacket collection.
“That’s not true”, you murmured.
“What am I afraid of?” he asked. He sat with his knees close to his chest, the tips of his bacon Converses against the cage of the cart. Together with all the goods he already picked, the whole carriage was quite heavy. Every time you carried something heavy, or pushed him around, or climbed a hill, you thought bitterly that it’s no use. You don’t do anything to your body. Tomorrow, which is going to be today, your muscles will be completely oblivious of all the hard work you did.
The only thing you could train here was your mind.
“You’re scared I’ll leave you“.
“You’re mortified of this place”, he said with certainty. “That one time you thought I left? When I fell into the ditch?”
You recalled it like it was yesterday. This was a big joke now, you laughed at it a lot. Whenever you didn’t feel like doing something you’d say, I’ll do it tomorrow, and laugh like two complete assholes, in the middle of an empty street, which was either spectacurlarly hilarious, or tragic.
That one time you thought Kai left was when he literally fell into a ditch on one of the twisted, narrow Pisa streets. The ditch was more like an underground tunnel open on the top, deep and dark. You were walking down parallel streets, searching for a nice coffee shop. Apparently, he started climbing a stone wall, desiring to look inside a window. Maybe back in the medieval times, they have dug that very ditch specifically with the thought in mind, that some voyeuristic idiot will want to peek inside someone’s house. Centuries have passed, and Malachai no middle name Parker has tried climbing the stone wall, fell and broke his neck without making a sound. He was lying on the bottom of the ditch until dark while you ran down the streets calling him all the names you could think of, as your mind ran even faster. Has he been kidnapped? By whom? Aliens? Werewolves? Witches? Italian ghosts? Consumed by the ground? Has he left? Why would he do that to you? Was it a prank? Was he watching you and laughing? As he resurrected and crawled out back onto the street, you sat on the same street catatonically, your head in your hands, numb with horror. That was the day when you realized, this world was only tolerable if he was near you.
“You are so stupid”, you hissed through your teeth. You wanted to tell him how stupid he was, with his stupid white smile, and his monkey limbs that called him to crawl and climb everything, his stupid black hair and river grey eyes, and his stupid white neck with two birthmarks, soft like drops of chocolate. And his stupid... everything, he was so stupid sometimes you wanted to kill him yourself.
“You dig me so much”, he echoed instantly. “Going back to your question, I think the worst thing about this place is being locked somewhere without a chance to get out. Like, buried alive”.
You stopped pushing him for a second, and he noticed.
“Because you can’t really die”.
“Yeah. You suffocate, suffer, then return. You’re hungry all the time, your throat is dry, it’s completely dark, you’re alone, and you can’t get out. And you’re just there, for years. Or maybe even centuries”.
You nodded.
“Yeah, that must be it”.
You still had that ingrained instinct to head for the registers after you were done shopping.
After a little detour, you finally pushed him outside, into the sun, and looked up at the sky. The time of eclipse was coming, but every day it made less and less sense. At first it was kinda tragic. There it goes again, your chance to get out of here. You have no ascendant, no Bennett blood. The eclipse winks at you, gloating, scolds you, and goes away, and you’re still here.
After a couple of months, it made less sense and hurt less. You were preoccupied with something else.
He was giving you looks which you knew wouldn’t let go. Kai had nothing else to entertain himself with here: he’s been here before. He couldn’t share your amazement at the stars at night, the stillness of the cities, the emptiness of the landscape. He didn’t care for completely silent, glowing, crowdless New York standing over the Hudson. He couldn’t pretend he was even mildly touched by a thousand miles long California beach, with the waves crashing on the white sand, and bringing no jellyfish. He was over it. As much as you were curious about every little corner of this world, he despised it; he found incredible worth in studying you instead. Following the advice you gave him (not to get bored (again), he was crawling up to you slowly, like a snake. He learnt all your glances and the way you liked to sleep. He learnt the pace of your heart. He knew what you ate, and what you didn’t. What time you took showers. What colors you never wore. He had nothing else to do here, but you.
So now, he knew he had striken a nerve, unknowingly, and of course, he wanted to know everything at once.
“You still don’t get it, do you”, he chuckled, standing idly by, as you loaded the trunk of your new, bottle-green BMW, with food. You bit your lower lip because you found it usually helped you keep a straight face.
“All you have is me”.
You hummed, almost amused. You somehow liked the sound of it.
“I am all you have. You don’t tell me, you tell nobody. You keep it to yourself. You go crazy. There’s two crazy people. We kill each other and there’s no happy end”.
“We can’t kill each other permanently”.
“I know, but we can do it many times and turn everything into... Starving Fest?”
You lost, letting a giggle out.
“Hunger Games”.
“Yeah, I know. What was it?”
“Oh, Kai, you’re so invasive”.
“I know, I’m a virus”.
“I do get it, by the way. I’m keenly aware you’re all I have”, you said, looking him straight in the eye. You understood it well the day he broke his stupid neck in Pisa. You could not even fathom that terror completely, to say nothing about explaining the feeling to him. You were afraid some deep feeling of attachment was developing here, right beneath your forehead.
“Then tell me”.
You sighed. Telling stories was, obviously, a big source of entertainment. People told stories from the beginning of times. Mainly dark stories, frightening ones. So that the fire seems warmer.
“You remember that golden slender crabtree in the Salvatore yard?”
“Yeah”, he nodded, already delighted. He knew it was going to be something hurtful for you, and enjoyed it all the more. The glint in his eyes made him look very alive, the way he looked when he was in his killing mode.
You got into the car, and Kai followed you, buckling up, out of habit now.
“And Katherine? Katherine Pierce? Do you remember her?”
“Damon’s chick who looks like Stefan’s chick”, he nodded again.
“Well, it’s fair to say Elena looks like Katherine. She’s her double after all”.
“Eh”.
“But yeah, Damon loves her very much. Still”.
You looked at the empty parking lot, and started the car. Kai groaned.
“Don’t tell me you love Damon Salvatore”.
“I used to. When I was, like, sixteen. If you were a sixteen year old girl, you’d love him, too”.
“I really doubt that. I’m more into rocker guys”.
“Whataver you say, Kai. Anyway, their romance was turbulent, he chased her for many years, and she barely gave a fuck about him, but Damon loved her so much; he practically ended up a vampire because of her. The whole Salvatore thing started because of her when she started dating both of them...”
“How’s it connected to you?” Kai asked.
“It is. I’m trying to give you the full story”.
You took on the street. Now you knew the town of Amalfi very well, to your own surprise. Would you ever guess, even a year before? This was bizarre. You drove along the trickly weaving serpentine roads almost like a pro, having lived here for almost a month. The view was divine. Deep blue in the morning, the sea was heating closer to four in the afternoon and was losing the color gradually, until the evening made it navy under the violet sky.
Prison.
Tumblr media
“The full story is dull. I hated that whole town specifically for their neverending drama. Who’s in love with whom? Who cheats on whom? Everybody fights for Elena, but I mean, have you seen what she’s wearing all the time?” Kai rambled lazily, “What the hell? And who cares, as well? I was baffled at how much drama they’re able to handle. If you like someone, why not just fuck them, and move on?”
You swayed your head, already quite used to his blunt view of attraction. He was being a little hypocritical, though. In the way he spooned you diligently, every night, there was way more than his straightforward sober calculation.
“Anyway”, you interrupted him, “the bottom line is, Katherine and Damon, although they both will deny their more or less mutual feelings, do tend to do stuff just to cause a reaction out of each other. Katherine, surprisingly, more so than Damon. He at least admits he’s still simping hard about her, which I find totally adorable and very cinematographic”.
“Why?”
“Well, Kai, he’s loved her since he turned. Which is, like, about two hundred years”.
“You’re so bad at math”.
“And yes, they had slept together, so it’s definitely, obviously not just an extreme case of trying to get laid. He really loves her. After all she’s done. If that doesn’t make you believe in love, I don’t know what to do with you”.
He frowned a little, looking ahead. You took the wheel with both hands as the car started climbing up the mountain. The laughably luxurious villa you occupied had two pools, insane city view and was on the top of the highest mountaint. If you can have anything, why not take it all.
“Princess, I still don’t get how it’s all connected with your eternal dread of enclosed spaces and that fucking tree”.
You ignored his impatience.
“Back at school, when I befriended Damon, because I was friends with Elena, and Elena dated his brother, he got some crazy idea I’m his project or something. He was trying to mentor me, even took me together with him when he needed to do something. There was a time I was working as his Door Girl”.
“What’s that mean?”
“Vampires can’t enter homes. If he needed to get inside someone’s house, I’d step on the porch and push the owner a little, so that they step out, and he broke their neck”.
Kai whistled really quietly.
“You are vile”.
“I was sixteen, and I was completely in love with him, and really wanted him to think I was badass and it never occurred to me that he was using me”.
“Wow”, Kai said slowly.
“You sound very judgmental for a psycho killer (by Talking Heads)”.
He tilted his head, and you just had to look. He looked so handsome. Maybe it was the biological thing, the last guy on the planet and whatnot. Every day, he seemed prettier and prettier to you, the stupid bastard. All his smirks, his cocky attitude, his stupid rubber neck bending sideways, the eyes always targeting you with the deadliest accuracy, it all was calling for you, and the depths of you replied.
“At least I never pretended to be a good person”.
“I never told you I was”.
“You all think that by default”.
“You claim to know me and yet...”
He smiled.
“Okay. Go on”.
“Damon started thinking of me eventually as of his very little sister, or something. Who was also his drinking buddy occasionally. I’m still very proud that a vamp like him considered me somewhat of a friend”.
You knew Kai would sniff with contempt, and he did.
“So, I became a person of interest. Of course, everyone knew I’m his buddy. It’s a little town. When Katherine came, and she always comes, and it seems to me, she even comes back sometimes - when she came, she really wanted to sting him somehow. So she took me, and she put me inside the earth in a chunk of a concrete drain pipe. She buried me alive”.
Finally, there was no opinionated comment. The utter silence in the car suddenly made you aware you forgot your phone at home. Kai watched you, almost mesmerized, clearly trying to picture it as graphically as he could. You wondered if your suffering was arousing to him.
“She obviously closed it on both ends. It’s way worse than a coffin, I can tell you. Have you ever been buried alive?”
“No”, he said simply.
“She buried me right under the windows of his room. In the yard. So that when he realizes I’m dead, it haunts him that I was right under is nose. Concrete pipe, six feet under the ground, you know, even a vampire ear would have hard time hearing me scream”.
“Did you scream?”
“Of course. I split my forehead and my elbows, I broke all my nails. I was sixteen, I gave in to panic and almost lost all the oxygen. For some reason, I decided to kill myself by breaking my own skull, not to suffer, and started banging my head on the pipe”.
Kai’s face was unreadable. You looked at him and then turned back to the glass smooth sunny asphalt. Every patch of asphalt reminded you of that pipe. Every concrete thing reminded you of that, always.
“How did you get out?” he asked. You were glad Kai didn’t ask for gory details or the uncomfortable, uneasy questions.
“He did hear me. Turns out, I’m very good at screaming”.
“I reckon”, he replied quietly.
“You’re enjoying it, aren’t you?”
He shrugged.
“Those experiences are very telling. If I’d known you could take so much and go on, I’d be harsher with you. How did it feel? Worse than now?”
“Nothing has ever been worse than that, to be honest”, you said, and had to clear your throat, because you suddenly lost your voice a little.
“This is not an invitation, Parker”.
He chuckled.
“Oh, dear Y/N. You think I’m some kinda maniac?”
You side eyed him with a smile. He grinned, too.
“And what with the tree?”
“Damon brought like... a seed he had found somewhere in Persia or whatever, and planted it on the spot I’d been buried. What a douche. Like I need to be reminded about it every day. That’s exactly what happens when you soulless jerks try to be sensitive”.
“That hurts me, when you say that”.
You sighed and let go of the wheel with one hand, feeling for his head.
“I’m sorry. I keep forgetting you have feelings now”.
“I have feelings for you”.
“Right. This crabtree was supposed to be usual, but it turned out some magical witchy fairy tree, it never brings apples, but it blooms when other trees don’t. And the trunk is golden. And the leaves, too. So, boo, Y/N survival tree. Wonderful. I made him cut it once, and what do you think. It grew back the next year”.
“Katherine is still alive though?” Kai reasoned.
“Yes, she is”, you responded, a bit louder, “she’s simply sleeping in the Fell’s old tomb. Apparently, bad guys don’t have to die if they’re cute”.
“Good for me”.
“He has betrayed me”, you noted, “he has chosen her over me, the girl he was supposed to take care of. I was a child, Kai”.
His hand laid on your lap, which you asked him not to do many times. You wouldn’t shrug him off this time, though. It didn’t matter anymore. You liked it when he touched you, and Kai knew it.
“Well, you said yourself he loves her. You just gotta find yourself a guy who loves you as much, and he’ll avenge you”.
You hummed. Tension settled in the car. It was so thick you didn’t even notice the sun blazing right into your eyes. You already knew the road pretty well. Soon, there’ll be a very sharp U turn, and after it, the most beautiful bay will make itself visible. Ghost ships with summery scarlet and orange sails are forever stuck there, swaying peacefully on water. Wooden pier with creeking planks, emerald green weed fluttering near the shore. It was quite a sight, and many times already, you almost sent the car down off the cliff, hypnotized by the sight. The cliff was rocky, completely vertical down there. You got your foot ready to push gently on the breaks.
“Have you ever loved anyone?” you asked. Here, now, as your car traveled on the serpentine, with around four hundred packs of frozen chicken nuggets in the trunk, it sounded a bit silly.
Kai clicked his tongue, already preoccupied with something new. Just like that, the conversation was over.
“Kai, I asked you the question”.
“Yeah, yeah, I have”.
The bay turned up. You realized the car isn’t obeying you like it did yesterday.
“What the...”
The turn was now speeding up to you as you pushed the breaks into the floor, but nothing happened. The car was rolling down the hill, gaining speed, on ice-slippery road.
You knew at once he was behind it.
“Kai, what the fuck?”
Your spine went numb with very natural, very animal fear. You could see the edge now.
“I cut the breaks”, he replied, and took your hand. He interlocked his fingers with yours.
You had no idea what he was trying to tell you.

Vampire Diaries Universe: The 25 Best Characters, Ranked
Tumblr media
For the first time since 2009, we’re entering a fall season devoid of any new offerings from the Vampire Diaries universe. And like Stefan Salvatore without his daily diet of forest friends, we’re insatiable.
Like so many longtime TVD enthusiasts (those of us to whom the word “thesmatos” really means something!), we’ve spent much of quarantine revisiting the weird, wonderful universe — from Mystic Falls to New Orleans and back again. We’re suddenly spending a lot of time with characters we haven’t seen in years. And we’re having a lot of feelings about them.
In celebration of the franchise’s 11th anniversary, TVLine has assembled another totally non-controversial ranking, this time of the 25 best characters from the Vampire Diaries universe — a category that also includes familiar faces from The Originals and Legacies. (In Legacies‘ defense, the franchise’s latest offshoot hasn’t been around as long to endear itself to us, but that didn’t stop four Salvatore School students from making their way onto our list.)
In lieu of new content from the TVD universe this fall, TVLine is looking back at our 25 favorite characters from the entire franchise, including stand-out favorites from its two spinoffs.
SPOILER ALERT: This ranking discusses major plot points from all three shows. If you haven’t finished The Vampire Diaries (Season 1-8), The Originals (Season 1-5) or Legacies (Season 1-2), proceed at your own risk. Don’t say we didn’t warn you!
25. VINCENT GRIFFITH
Thanks to the magic of body swapping, the Mikaelson siblings have inhabited multiple physical vessels throughout the years, but none have remained in the family’s orbit quite like this Southern gentleman. Powerful, thoughtful and downright Shakespearean in his delivery (Yusuf Gatewood, ladies and gentlemen!), Vincent always has the greater good in mind. And as we learned in The Originals’ series finale, he helped Freya and Keelan pass that good along to the next generation.
Tumblr media
24. LANDON KIRBY
Even though we’re still getting to know him, there’s already so much to like about this pure-hearted Mystic Falls townie. Not only is he the franchise’s first-ever phoenix, but he also looks like he could pass for Damon and Elena’s offspring — and that’s never a bad thing. We could tell he had a long future in this universe the moment he danced with Hope in The Originals’ final season. (So far, so good!)
23. JENNA SOMMERS
Like so many paved paradises, we didn’t fully appreciate what we had with Jenna until she was gone. Her death marked the end of Elena’s innocence — which is saying a lot, considering she was still mourning her own parents when The Vampire Diaries began. And if we’re being honest, Jenna was the ghost we were most excited to see again in the series finale. (For the record, Joseph Morgan has apologized on Klaus’ behalf for killing Jenna several times.)
22. TYLER LOCKWOOD
The First Son of Mystic Falls was kind of a jerk when we met him in The Vampire Diaries‘ first season. He was arrogant, aggressive and reckless — so it actually made perfect sense when he was revealed to be a werewolf. Fortunately, Michael Trevino’s character developed a little more nuance from that point on, especially via his Romeo and Juliet romance with Caroline. (After everything that’s happened since 2013, can you believe that they were once in a love triangle with Klaus?)
21. JEREMY GILBERT
Elena’s little brother (er, cousin?) went through a number of different, wonderful phases during his tenure in Mystic Falls. We loved him in The Vampire Diaries’ earlier seasons as the human embodiment of all things emo (he literally dated a ghost!), and we… um… appreciated his unexpected evolution into a shirt-ripping, wood-chopping vampire hunter.
20. CAMILLE ‘CAMI’ O’CONNELL
The Clarice Starling to Klaus’ Hannibal Lecter, this brave bartender was able to tap into the show’s darkest, most complicated character’s psyche in ways that no one named Mikaelson (or even Forbes) ever could. She helped him conquer a number of his demons in the few short years they spent together on The Originals, and like most people who play a significant role in Klaus’ life, she suffered the consequences. (Side note: Are we the only ones who really dug Cami as a vampire? Justice for that short-lived story arc.)
19. SHERIFF ELIZABETH FORBES
Of The Vampire Diaries’ many maternal figures, none put us through the emotional ringer quite like Caroline’s mother. We weren’t her biggest fans in the show’s early seasons, given her penchant for hunting the undead (including her own daughter), but hey, what was this show if not an endless series of redemption arcs? Also, if you don’t get a little choked up when Caroline felt her mom’s presence in the series finale, you don’t have a soul.
18. FREYA MIKAELSON
The long-lost fifth Mikaelson sibling was a little rough around the edges when we first encountered her on The Originals, but the poor woman was in the midst of escaping a centuries-long imprisonment, so we cut her a little slack. And we’re glad we did, because Freya has since become one of the strongest, most inspiring and all-around likable characters in the Vampire Diaries canon. #FreelinForever
17. MARCEL GERARD
While it’s easy to get swept up in Marcel’s charm and swagger (we were robbed of a second karaoke number, by the way!), it’s important to remember just how far back his time with the Mikaelson family goes. When you consider that Klaus literally freed Marcel from slavery and raised him to lead New Orleans as his right-hand vampire, it adds a whole other layer of tension to their passionate power struggle on The Originals. Though he’s treated like an unofficial Mikaelson sibling, Marcel often feels like more of a Mikaelson than Kol — and definitely more than Finn.
16. REBEKAH MIKAELSON
Arguably the funniest (and most glamorous) member of the Mikaelson family, the woman Damon once referred to as “Barbie Klaus” never fai to tell it exactly like it was, beginning with her thoughts on then-lovebirds Stefan and Elena. (“Honestly, I don’t get you two as a couple.”) And Bex only became more complex as the years went on, from her desperate desire for humanity to her undeniable love for Marcel. Just don’t call her insane — she prefers “spontaneous.”
Tumblr media
15. ALARIC SALTZMAN
In hindsight, Alaric’s journey from hot history teacher to hot headmaster of a supernatural school makes perfect sense. Still, it was impossible to predict back in The Vampire Diaries’ first season just how much of an impact the man formerly known as Warner Huntington III would have on this franchise. A drinking buddy to some, a father figure to others and a literal father to a lucky pair, Alaric has truly woven himself into the fabric of this universe like few others. (That said, we still wouldn’t recommend dating him if you value your life.)
14. SHERIFF MATT DONOVAN
Only one full-blooded human survived all eight seasons of The Vampire Diaries, and you’re looking at him. The pinnacle of mortal goodness, this blue-eyed patriot hasn’t always been on the same page as his vampire brethren, but that’s only because he didn’t want to see any more his friends and family get eaten. And we can sympathize with that!
Tumblr media
12-13. LIZZIE AND JOSIE SALTZMAN
Asking us to choose between Jo (by way of Caroline) and Alaric’s daughters is an impossible task, which is ironic, considering the Gemini twins are literally destined for a fight to the death on their 22nd birthday. Besides, these sisters have always felt like a package deal, from the moment we witnessed their birth on The Vampire Diaries to the day we reunited with them as teenagers on Legacies. (They also popped up in The Originals’ penultimate episode, putting them in the prestigious category of characters who have appeared in all three series.) Despite their inherent connection, Lizzie and Josie really have grown into two very different people, a journey we hope will continue for years (and shows) to come.
11. MALACHAI ‘KAI’ PARKER
The fact that this remorseless, pork rind-loving psychopath ranks so high on our list speaks volumes about actor Chris Wood, who brought a refreshingly sassy vibe to The Vampire Diaries’ sixth season. The guy was so likable, fans were even ‘shipping him with Bonnie… as if that poor girl hadn’t been through enough already! You also have to give Kai points for longevity — even after his head got knocked off, he managed to make two encore appearances on TVD (Season 8) and Legacies (Season 2).
Tumblr media
10. HOPE MIKAELSON
As we mentioned with Lizzie and Josie earlier, we feel like we’ve watched Hope grow up before our eyes… because we have. Given the epic circumstances surrounding her conception, birth and upbringing, an adult version of this character had a lot of hype to live up to, and Danielle Rose Russell has proven herself more than up to the challenge. Imbued with her parents’ best qualities, Hope’s power and passion make her both a formidable foe and an invaluable ally. Besides, Legacies showed us what the world would be like without Hope, and it was not a good place.
Tumblr media
9. HAYLEY MARSHALL
We can’t even think about this fierce, fearless mama wolf without shedding a single tear. Hayley’s story was basically one long tragedy, from her complicated marriage with Jackson to her tumultuous relationship with Elijah. And then there was her untimely demise in The Originals’ final season, which… actually, let’s not talk about that. From the moment she gave birth, Hayley’s heart belonged to Hope, and it was in her most extreme maternal moments that Hayley’s true strength was on display. That’s how we’ll remember her.
8. ELIJAH MIKAELSON
Suits? Pressed. Hair? Immaculate. Vocabulary? Thicc. With his smooth moves and cunning intellect, Klaus’ extremely respectful brother could do it all — well, except keep the people he loved from meeting horrific ends. (Seriously, this guy’s track record for dead lovers is right up there with Alaric’s.)
7. BONNIE BENNETT
Simply put, this is the witch you want in your corner when things go south. Endlessly powerful and selfless to a fault, Kat Graham’s character spent eight agonizing seasons sacrificing herself — often literally, hence her multiple deaths — in order to keep her friends and family safe. No amount of bloody noses or dead boyfriends could stop this badass from crushing her enemies.
Tumblr media
6. CAROLINE FORBES
Getting smothered to death was honestly the best thing that could have happened to Caroline, who evolved from a basic, boy-crazy cheerleader into a bad-ass vampire overnight. And that was just the first phase of her franchise-long evolution into the empowered, globe-trotting mother of two she is today. She’s also responsible for all of The Vampire Diaries’ memorable musical moments, from her sweet song for Matt to her devastating performance at Sheriff Forbes’ funeral. (Now if only she’d pay her old pals at Legacies a visit…)
Tumblr media
5. ELENA SALVATORE
She may not have Katherine’s chaotic flare, but Elena deserves credit for carrying much of The Vampire Diaries’ dramatic and romantic weight for six years. And for that pink hair she experimented with in Season 4. On top of that, Elena also rolled with the punches better than almost anyone. (You’re vampires? I’m a doppelgänger? Now I’m a vampire? Now I’m human again? Now I’m in a coma? Sure, let’s do this.)
Tumblr media
3-4. DAMON AND STEFAN SALVATORE
Two sides of the same brooding coin, these brothers were as proficient at breaking hearts as they were at breaking necks. And while their love triangle with Elena will remain the stuff of TV legend, their relationship as brothers was revealed to be the real heart of The Vampire Diaries in its final two seasons. Honestly, it’s too hard to choose between them, so we’re not going to.
2. KATHERINE PIERCE
Come on, when were you not excited to see this leather-clad lunatic on your screen? Deliciously twisted and infinitely more interesting than her human doppelgänger, Katherine was behind many of The Vampire Diaries’ most jaw-dropping twists, from her iconic encounter with John(’s bloody fingers) to her long-awaited return in the series finale. Honestly, putting Katherine on hell’s throne in Season 8 was merely a formality — she was always a queen.
Tumblr media
1. KLAUS MIKAELSON
The man, the myth, the legend. To think that the monster who slaughtered poor, defenseless Aunt Jenna on The Vampire Diaries is the same person who gave it all up to save his daughter on The Originals… well, there isn’t a clap slow enough to commend that kind of growth. (Again, Joseph Morgan is very sorry about the whole Jenna thing!) By the time Klaus evaporated on the streets of New Orleans, it felt like we had explored every conceivable nook and cranny of his existence, from his traumatic childhood to his fatal romances — and we relished every second of it.

KAI PARKER X FEM!WITCH!READER (PAST RELATIONSHIP)
BAU TEAM X READER (PLATONIC)
SPENCER REID X READER (BRIEF AT END)
Request: Ohh I'm anxious for misunderstanding part 2! It's sooo good 💚 idk if you're taking requests (sorry if you're not) but i thought it'd be pretty cool if reader works at the bau and is someone from kai parker's past (a childhood friend/crush/whatever) and when the team's called for help in mystic falls, kai's the unsub.. thanks in advance and, again, sorry if you're not taking requests! Take care :)
(Summary: Never in a million years did you think your ex boyfriend would be on the BAU’s radar.)
(A/N: I'm altering the Prison World storyline from TVD for this imagine! Also I’m altering Kai’s storyline to fit this. Lastly some stuff in this story involving the hospital may be inaccurate. Also sorry this took so long to post. I hope you still enjoy it!)
REQUEST ARE OPEN (+ Harry Potter has been added to the list recently!)
“Hotch I’m going to be a bit late this traffic is a pain in the-” I start before I get cut off. “Y/L/N take all the time you need just make sure you get here in one piece.” Hotch’s stern voice says. “Yes sir I will be speeding there right now. Not literally Hotch.” I say before hanging up the phone. I steadily drive over to work and park my car. I enter the building and head up to the unit area. “Hey Y/N/N.” I hear Penelope’s happy voice greet me as I step out of the elevator. “Hey Pen.” I say smiling as I swing open the doors of the bullpen. I head over to my desk and sit down. “Ah don’t get too comfortable my BAU baby. We have a case.” Penelope says strolling past me and up the stairs.I haven’t had coffee yet.I follow her into the room. “Here I heard your commute was very long.” Emily says, handing me a cup of coffee. “Oh what did I do to be blessed with Emily freaking Prentiss.” I say smiling as I take a sip. “Here you go babes.” Penelope says handing us our files. “Okay Mystic Falls Virginia just outside our room. Multiple bodies were sent to the hospital all banged and bloody.” Penelope says shivering at her words.I look at the file pictures and these seem vaguely familiar.“So why are we being called in?” Derek asks. “Because they all identified that it was the same man.” Penelope says.Great it’s serial.“They all said it was a blue eyed, dark brown haired guy.” Penelope says. Oh shit Kai. “Do you have a name yet?” I ask Penelope. “No but, like major but a similar thing was done by a guy named Malachai Parker.” Penelope says shivering slightly. “So why haven’t they caught him yet?” JJ asks, confused. “No one has been able to find him.”  I look down to the floor remembering the prison world escape. 
“Kai you and I both know she won’t get us both out.” I say snuggling up to him. “Babe have a little faith.” He says kissing the top of my head. “Kai what if we don’t get out?” I ask sadly, remembering my life outside of this world. “We’ve dealt with each other for this long and plus we can kill our way to the top. I’ll consider sharing my coven with you.” He says smiling at me. I smile back at him. “As fun as the killing game sounds Kai I don’t want to hurt people. I want to do what I planned before I got in here.” I say fiddling with my fingers. “The FBI thing?” Kai asks quirking an eyebrow. “Yeah Kai I would’ve been perfect for that.” I sigh sadly. “If you became an agent would you put me away?” Kai asks, grabbing my hands. “I don’t think I can run a coven on my own.” I say smiling up at him. “Good now let’s find our ticket out.” He says clapping his hands together.

“Y/N?” I hear Spencer whisper beside me catching my attention. “Hmm?” I ask looking up at him. “We’re headed to the jet now.” He says shyly, handing me my go bag. “Thanks Spence.” I say smiling as I stand up. We head towards the elevator elaborating on ideas for the case and catching Kai. We step onto the jet and take our seats. “Okay so his M.O is very bloody.” Emily says twisting her pen between her fingers. “He could be sadistic.” JJ suggests turning a page to look at crime scene photos. “Or he can be a sociopath. Or at least showing the signs.” I say as I shrug leaning back. “Why do you think that?” Rossi asks. “It was just a suggestion Rossi I honestly have no clue on how to approach this case.” I say closing the file and stare out the window.

Kai and I enter the back seat of a taxi. “We‘re free baby.” I say laughing giving him a kiss on the cheek. “Where are you guys off to?” The driver asks. “Mystic Falls.” Kai says quickly. “Why are headed back to that trashy town Kai.” I say rolling my eyes. “Old friends.” He says grabbing my chin so I turn to face him. “What kind?” I say smiling at him. “Family kind.” He says placing his hands over my shoulder. “Why are we going to visit your family? They have caused you nothing but trouble. For fucks sake Kai they treated you like shit.” I say shifting to look at his face. “Relax it isn't going to be a fun reunion.” Kai says shrugging. I sigh lightly this most likely won’t end good.

“Tell us baby girl.” Derek says as he puts Penelope on speaker. “Okay so this Malachai guy has a rough history. He was born in 1972 in Portland Oregon. He has multiple siblings which he, oh my gosh, murdered. He has a twin sister named Josette Laughlin and two younger siblings Lucas and Olivia Parker who are still alive.” Penelope says. “Is that all Penelope?” Hotch asks walking over to the phone. “Actually no this is weird. Malachai went off the grid in 1994, like disappeared. Then he reappeared in 2012.” She says, sounding confused. “Isn’t your hometown Portland Oregon?” JJ whispers beside me. “Sadly.” I say. “There’s been a series of bodies that are injured in the local hospital. Malachai was also admitted there but he isn’t seen on the cameras. They suspect he’s still in the hospital. ” The sheriff says quickly entering and exiting the room. We all scramble and put on our vests. Half of us enter one van and the rest in another as we speed off into the hospital.
——————
We enter the hospital with our guns drawn low. “Reid, Y/L/N, Prentiss take the upper area of the hospital. The rest follow me.” Hotch instructs. We all nod in unison and head up the stairs with our weapons still out. We make it to the floor with the victims and the lights go out. “What the hell.” I hear Emily say. “Welcome to Mystic Falls’ Hospital BAU agents. I am Kai Parker, nice to be acquainted with you guys seeing as my ex-girlfriend is on your team. Hello Y/N.” Kai’s voice booms through the hospital speakers. I groan internally at his words so much for being lowkey. I turn on the flashlight on my gun and look around. Great Emily and Spencer are nowhere to be seen. I surprisingly make my way down the steps and head towards the speaker room. No ones in here. “Of course you're the first to be here.” I hear Kai say from behind me. “Don’t make this difficult Kai.” I say turning to him. “Or what you’ll arrest me. Last time I checked you hurt people too. Before this whole FBI thing that is.” Kai says, stepping towards me. “Actually that’ll be kind of hot so I won’t oppose it happening.” He says, smirking at me. I lay my hand out to start inflicting pain on him. “Immobilis.” He says halting my movements. I freeze completely and stare at him as he walks around me.
“You still look the same. You even still have that scar from when we escaped the prison world.” Kai says as he drags a finger onto my cheek outlining the scar. “Does your team even know about me? Do they know you could’ve found me so easily with your magic?” He asks, gripping my arm. He siphons some magic from me causing pain but I can’t scream out. He lets go of me and drops the spell. “Motus.” I say immediately sending him flying out the room. He groans and gets up off the floor. He speeds over to me and grabs me by the neck pinning me to the wall. He grips my neck tightly as I gasp for air. “I won’t kill you because well we dated and you're hot.” He says dropping me. I fall to my knees holding my throat. “Malachai Parker. Put your hands in the air.” Emily says as she appears behind Kai. Kai smirks to me and puts his hands up. “Remember your house in the prison world. I hope you remember what I told you.” Kai says to me. “I love you and always win.” I say looking at him confused. “Ad somnum.” He says, turning to Emily making her drop to the floor. He turns back to me and grabs me by the chin. “I always win baby.” He says kissing me before speeding out of the room. The lights on the floor immediately go back on as he runs away and Emily stands up rubbing her head. “Where did he go?” Emily asked, looking around. “He’s gone.” I sigh sadly. “Guys!” We hear Spencer exclaim. Emily and I scramble out the room towards his voice with our guns drawn. “Oh my gosh.” Emily gasps as we see Kai holding Spencer up by the neck. I place my hand forwards and feel the gust of wind moving around me from the vents. I focus my energy on Kai and think of pain. Kai immediately drops to the floor, dropping Spencer in the process. I step closer to Kai as Emily grabs Spencer moving him to the side. I twist my fingers making the pain intensify as Kai screams out in agony. 
I drop my hand and Kai stands up glaring at me. “Mittite.” I say flinging him into the wall. He stays pinned tightly into the wall and I twist my hand snapping his neck. His body drops to the ground lifeless. “Cuff him and put him in the car before he wakes up.” I say to Spencer who nods back at me.
——————
We head back to the station and Kai gets put into one of the cells. “Make sure you call Bonnie and Damon quickly. Kai is dangerous.” I say quietly to Sheriff Forbes who nods in understanding. I nod over to her and walk off to the room where we all set up. “Where is everyone?” I ask, noticing only Spencer in the room. “Back at the hotel.” He says holding his bag tightly. “Oh um well I’ll be right back.” I say opening the door. “Hey Y/N would you maybe want to go out sometime?” I hear Spencer says. I turn to him blushing profusely and nod not trusting my mouth to say actual words. He smiles widely as I exit the room. I walk over to Kai’s spelled  cell and look at him tilting my head to the side. “Goodbye Kai. I hope you enjoy the new and improved prison world you'll most likely be sent to.” I say waving him off. I head back to the set up room and grab my bag. I lace my hands with Spencer and we walk out of the station.
