New Orleans

Mikaelson Compound

Klaus P.O.V.

We were having a rare peaceful night at home when the phone call came in. I look at the number and I don’t recognize it. I answer it on speakerphone so that Damon can hear it too.

Klaus- Speak.

Will- Is that anyway to speak to your favorite child?

Damon- Will! Where are you calling us from?

Will- About that? It seems I’ve gotten myself into a complicated situation that may require your help to liberate me from a place I would rather not be right now.

Just in case you’re wondering, Will is our miracle son. One day Damon became pregnant and 6 months later Will was born. Of course it’s not a surprise that Will is some kind of empath with powers we can’t even begin to understand and speaks like a suffering poet from the fifteenth century. I blame Elijah and Stefan for the poet thing since they introduced Shakespeare to Will at only two years old. I swear I’ve never seen a vampire suffer as much as Stefan but that’s a story for another day. Anyway, a few years ago Will came to us saying he needed to go to Baltimore Maryland because the love of his life was there. Judging by this phone call, shit went wrong. I tune back into the conversation to see Damon screaming into the phone.

D amon- What in the hell Will!? How in the fuck did you get admitted into the insane asylum!?

Will- Are you really asking me that dad? Most of our family is crazy. If you ask me, it was only a matter of time. Just look at Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Lucien.

I put my hand over my mouth to keep from laughing because he has a point.

Damon- Now is not the time to for your smart ass mouth..inmate!

I take over the call.

Klaus- Your dad is a little upset right now. Get your thoughts together and we will be there first thing in the morning.

Will- Okay father  but please don’t bring them yet.

I smile.

Klaus- Stop being rude! You will hurt their feelings if we leave them out of this!

Will- You and your friends are nothing but a bunch of Heathens! It seems as if everyone’s mission in life is too make sure I suffer, even when we are miles apart.

Klaus- Says the boy who keeps a pack of werewolves as pets just to keep your friends close to you. Who’s the real heathen in this family?

Will- Whatever. I’ll see you soon. Please ask Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Lucien to make sure I’m out of the building before they burn it down.

Klaus- No promises.

Will- I love you both.

Klaus- You too.

We hang up and I watch Damon packing our bags.

Damon- Something is not right with this Klaus. We need to reach out to all of the heathens to get them on board.

Klaus- You really shouldn’t call our friends and family heathens.

He looks at me like I’m stupid.

Damon- Not heathens seriously?? Let’s start with the worst of them, guess who’s known as the clown King and Queen of New York?

Klaus- They are just misunderstood.

Damon- Misunderstood people don’t wear their victims faces after killing them for literal shits and giggles!

Klaus- They love us and they love Will that’s all that matters.

He rolls his eyes.

Damon- That’s their only saving grace but they’re still crazy as fuck!

Klaus- I’m not denying that but everyone else is okay.

Damon- What about Elijah, Rebekah, and even Stefan’s crazy asses?!

Klaus- I resent that! Elijah is nothing but a gentlemen and never kills unless provoked.

Damon- Or when Haley demands it. I promise he’s so far up her ass it’s good he doesn’t need to breathe to survive. Every since she gave birth to Hope, he jumps at her command.

I grab him by his waist and pull him onto my lap.

Klaus- If that’s the case, I’m far up your ass every since you gave me Will.

Damon- *kiss* shut up *kiss* it’s not the same.

Klaus- *kiss* no? I would do anything for you at the drop of a hat.

Damon- Whatever!

Klaus- Are you going to try and make a case for Rebekah? What about Stefan?

Damon- Fuck no!

He smiles.

Damon- Will may have a point that we are surrounded by heathens.

Klaus- May?

Damon- *kiss* Fine ...they are heathens but please keep in mind your son is just as crazy for keeping werewolves like dogs.

I can’t help smiling at that because the Alpha of the Southern werewolf pack Winston, decided to follow Will to Baltimore when he went in search of his mate. The good thing is most of his pack members were in favor of the move except for Buster. He refused to move and be treated like a dog. However, he was soon convinced when everyone made the point they practically were dogs that transformed into humans at will. Let’s just say he still wasn’t happy and was cursing up a storm while packing a bag.

Klaus- *kiss* you’re always right my love. Let’s get our stuff together and get to Baltimore as soon as possible. I want to know who got close enough to Will that ended with him in the loony bin.

Damon- *kiss* Okay but you’re calling Lucien and Bonnie. I don’t want anything to do with that!

Fuck My Life!

Meanwhile...............................

Queens New York

Location Unknown

Lucien P.O.V.

I’m bored and my mind is starting to wonder where in the fuck is Bonnie because she was supposed to be here when I closed this drug deal. However, she’s an hour late and this talking puppet in front me is going on about nothing. Duncan is the top drug dealer in the Brooklyn borough and is trying to expand his territory that belongs to one of my favored lieutenants Rebekah. Rebekah is my best friends sister and I convinced her to move from New Orleans to New York about a year ago because I needed to surround myself with people that I sorta trust. Anyway, I can’t allow the expansion to happen and I’ve had enough of Duncans  voice. I slam my cane on the ground, stand up and I’m about to kill him when my cellphone rings. I’m expecting it to Bonnie but I’m surprised to see it’s Klaus.

Lucien- You just gave Duncan an extra 10 minutes of life....

I let out my signature laugh and sit on the drug dealers lap as I place the call on speakerphone.

Klaus- I’m happy to do my one good deed for the day. You’re welcome whoever you are.

Duncan doesn’t say thank you like he should have.....I take out my gun and shoot him in the thigh.. he screams...I laugh....

Klaus- Did you just kill him?

Lucien- Unfortunately not.

I motion for one of my men to gag him in order for me to continue my call in peace.

Lucien- Talk to me.

Klaus- Where is Bonnie? I only want to repeat myself once if possible.

I growl.

Lucien- I would tell you if I knew.

He laughs.

Klaus- Trouble in paradise my dear friend?

Lucien- You have five seconds to tell me the reason for your call before I kill you.

Klaus- I love you too but I’m afraid this is not a social call. Will is locked up in an insane asylum and Damon thought you may want to meet us in Baltimore to figure this out.

At the words of insane asylum, I start getting flashbacks of Doctor Bonnie Bennett playing with my mind, being rescued by Klaus and Damon. I also remember strapping Bonnie to a table and giving her electric shock therapy to drive her crazy like it did me......or maybe made me crazier. Who knew my brand of therapy would make Bonnie insane and actually fall in love with me. Anyway, that’s a story for another day.

Lucien- You mean to tell me his werewolf dogs couldn’t keep him safe.

Klaus- That’s what I want to figure out as well.

Lucien- Well, Winston’s furry ass better have a good reason or else his pack will be eliminated....fire pit style. Or maybe make a new fur coat for my sweet darling.

Klaus- Be easy on Winston, I’m sure he’s already beating himself up over this.

Lucien- Whatever. Give me the information and we will meet you there.

Klaus- Thanks brother. I love you.

I hang up the phone. I swear fatherhood has made him soft.

I have my knife out and I’m about to cut Duncan’s face off to wear it later when my Queen walks through the door.

Bonnie- Puddin’!

I’m happy to see she’s still breathing but that turns into a little regret when I hear that stupid nickname. As she walks towards me, I can’t help thinking how much I love and hate the outfit she’s wearing today. She currently has on blood red 6 inch pumps, black fishnet stockings with various holes torn in them, black leather mini shorts with a matching halter top and a red bomber jacket to match the shoes. Her black hair is curly and those fucking bewitching olive green eyes are now focused on me. She tries to give me a hug and I push her away by her forehead.

Bonnie- What in the hell is wrong with you?!

I slowly walk up to her with my head tilted to the side , while she takes a couple of steps back.

Lucien- What’s wrong with me? What’s wrong with me she asks? How about you tell where in the fuck have you been?!

She huffs like I’m inconveniencing her!

Bonnie- My nail tech canceled my appointment because she’s sick and maybe I overreacted when I tortured her for a few hours before slitting her throat. Why didn’t you just call my phone?

I grab her by her throat, kiss her with way too much tongue , and finally pull away to let her breathe. However, I’m not surprised her eyes are filled with nothing but lust. I whisper against her lips, “ You left your phone behind my love.”

Bonnie- Shit!

Lucien- I’ll forgive you this time but I won’t be so forgiving if it happens again Bonnie. We have too many enemies and I need to know where you are at all times. Do you understand?

Bonnie- Yes.

Don’t let her seemingly submissive demeanor fool you. She’s only acting that way because we are in front of my men. More than likely I will probably have to sleep with one eye open over this little stunt but it’s okay because hate sex with her is the best.

Lucien- Go home and pack your things, we are headed to Baltimore.

Bonnie- Wait, Will is in Baltimore Is he alright? Who do we have to kill?

Her witch side is showing by how bright her olive green eyes are getting. I fucking love it!

I laugh and kiss her again!

Lucien- If you weren’t so crazy I would think your insane!

She smiles.

Bonnie- I love you too baby. I’ll see you at home.

I watch her walkaway before focusing back on Duncan.

Lucien- Today is your lucky day because I have somewhere else I’d rather be.

I take out my gun and shoot him in the head. I look at my men.

Lucien- Clean up this mess and if you need me over the next week or so, I’ll be in Baltimore. Don’t fuck up while I’m gone.

I walk away whistling, wondering what the future holds in Baltimore.

The Following Morning

Wolf Trap, Virginia

Will ’s Home

Damon’s P.O.V.

Let’s just say I’m not fucking happy with Will’s living conditions or the fact that we are here instead of seeing Will. However, Klaus thought it was a good idea to speak with Winston first but, that plan went to hell since Winston is not here. I’m over this shit already.

Damon- Klaus let’s go! I hate this fucking place and I want to see my son!

He pulls me into a hug in order to keep me from getting too upset. It doesn’t work.

Klaus- I know you’re worried about Will my love but, he will be okay. I just want to talk to Winston to see if he can give us any insight into what’s going on with Will.

I take a deep breath to calm myself down before speaking.

Damon- I know but none of this makes sense. Why is he living in squalor? Between the money he makes with the FBI and what we deposit into his account on a monthly basis, he could afford a fucking mansion! What the fuck Klaus?!

So much for staying calm.

Klaus- Look, you know Will is not a person to flaunt his wealth. This shouldn’t surprise you at all.

I was about to give my thoughts about Will not flaunting his wealth when we see a little red car coming down the driveway. Once it comes to a stop, the back door flies out and out runs Will’s dogs with Winston leading the way. The next thing we notice is a decent looking woman with dark hair screaming out loud, “How in the hell did they open the back door?!” I want to scream at her ass they are werewolves but I’m not sure how much Will has told her about us. I’m just staring at her while Klaus decides to be the courteous one.

Klaus- Hello! I’m Klaus, Will’s father. Who are you?

She blushes. He’s gay bitch!

Alana- Hi! I’m Alana. It’s so nice to meet you. I use to work with Will at the FBI and we were friends before the situation.

Damon- Situation? Is that what we are calling my son being locked up in insane asylum?

She looks confused, then focuses on Klaus.

Alana- Wait... I thought you were Will’s father?

I’m getting tired of her and cut to the chase.

Damon- We don’t have time to explain to you in 2023 how two men can be the parents of a child.

To be fair, she’d probably think I was joking if I actually told her I gave birth to him. Maybe I can’t explain it.

Alana- I’m sor...

I cut her off.

Damon- I don’t care. Thanks for bringing his dogs to us, now leave.

Alana- There’s no need to be rude! I was doing Will a favor by watching his dogs and bringing them to you at Will’s request! It’s not my fault what happen to Will!

I step closer to her but Klaus stops me right before I think about killing this stupid bitch.

Klaus- We appreciate it Ms.....

Alana- Bloom.

Klaus- Thank you Ms. Bloom, we will take it from here.

She nods and takes one more look at both us before finally getting in her car to leave.

Klaus- Love, why were you so mean to her?

Damon- She’s annoying as fuck. Let’s go inside and talk to Winston, I want to see my son.

Baltimore, Maryland

Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane

3 Hours Later

Damon’s P.O.V.

Winston and Buster didn’t provide us with much information other than someone named Hannibal Lecter is responsible for my son being in this cage. Currently, we are standing outside of this fucked up hospital when a purple lambo catches my eye and I already know who it belongs too. Once it comes to a stop, the passenger door flies open and out comes Bonnie. She runs towards me and I open my arms to catch her. She wraps her legs around my waist while I kiss her on her cheek. I hear Lucien scream out to Klaus.

Lucien- Klaus! How attached are you to Damon?!

Klaus- They same way you are attached to that cane and purple suit.

Bonnie and I laugh.

Lucien- I guess I can’t kill him then.

Klaus- Guess not.

I tune out their conversation and focus back on my beauty in my arms. I stare into her olive green eyes and I swear if I were straight, Bonnie would be mine.

Damon- How is my favorite girl?

Bonnie- I’m good. ..just worried about Will.

Damon- Me too.

I look away and she grabs the side of my face to make me look at her.

Bonnie- We will figure this out even if we have to kill everyone in there and burn it down to get to Will.

I smile.

Damon- My girl!

She gives me a quick peck on the lips.

Bonnie- Always.

Klaus P.O.V.

Lucien and I are standing a good ways away from them watching the show until, something unexpected happens that confuses us both. We see Bonnie lean in and kiss Damon on the lips. Granted it was just a peck but it’s something we have never seen before. Obviously, I’m not the only one disturbed by this because Lucien’s voice cuts through my thoughts.

Lucien- What in the fuck was that?

Klaus- I’m not sure but we have other things to worry about right now.

He growls and turns me to face him.

Lucien- Get your boy in check before I do. The only thing keeping me from killing him is you.

I have to clean this up before it gets out of hand.

Klaus- I hear you my friend but I think you’re overreacting.

He stares at me for a moment before nodding his head.

Lucien- Maybe. Anyway, what’s the plan? You know I can’t go in there.

Klaus- And you know I wouldn’t ask you too.Anyway, Elijah and Haley should be here in about 30 minutes. Why don’t you and Bonnie wait for them out here until we come out?

He just nods and at that moment, Damon walks towards us with Bonnie.

Bonnie- Hey Klaus!

Klaus- Hello love.

She stands next to Lucien but he moves away from her. She is about to ask him what’s wrong but his attention fixes back on me like she doesn’t exist. Lucien never did well with hiding his emotions from others.

Lucien- What’s the plan Klaus?

Klaus- Damon and I will go see Will. After about 30 minutes, Bonnie will need to do her thing and disrupt the cameras. This will ensure our true natures stay hidden just in case Will pisses one of us off.

Damon- You mean piss me off?

I ignore him.

Klaus- Elijah and Haley will be here soon for emotional support supposedly. After we come out, we will know what to do from there.

Lucien nods and walks back to his car while Bonnie stays standing next to us.

Bonnie- You all go ahead and I will have the cameras out in 30 minutes.

Damon- Thanks beautiful.

Bonnie- Anytime

I walk towards the front doors of the hospital and I hear Damon coming up beside me.

Damon- Why are you upset Klaus?

I keep forgetting how easily Damon can read me.

Klaus- Not now.

I hold the door open for him to walk through first. As soon as walk in, the first person we see is a young man sitting at the desk.

Klaus- Hi. We are here to see Will Graham.

He looks surprised like he doesn’t expect my son to have any visitors. I look at his name badge and it reads Matthew.

Mathew- Oh! Are you with the  press?

Damon- Why would the newspapers want to speak with him?

Mathew- Are you serious?! He’s the famous Chesapeake Ripper!

Damon looks at me.

Damon- What did he just say?

I’m about to respond to him when a little man with a doctor’s coat on interrupts our conversation. His name badge says Dr. Chilton.

Chilton- Mathew...who do we have here?

I answer instead.

Klaus- We are here to see Will Graham.

Chilton- Everyone wants to see him but who exactly are you?

Damon has had enough.

Damon- We are his parents and we want to see Will right fucking now!

They are staring at each other which means Damon is using a little mind control to enforce his point. Dr. Chilton looks at Matthew.

Chilton -Bring Will to the visiting area and I will escort his parents there.

Matthew nods then disappears down the hall.

Chilton- Gentlemen, please follow me.

We follow this little man while I grab Damon’s hand to help calm him down. He does not need to see Will while he’s angry. Finally, we make it to a small conference room and Chilton said something but we chose to ignore it. I pull out a chair for Damon and myself.

Damon- Why in the hell do they think Will is a serial killer?

We have heard of the Chesapeake Ripper but it’s definitely not Will.

Klaus- Let’s see what Will has to say about all of this.

About 10 minutes later, Will walks in and he looks terrible. He tries to smile at us but it falls flat. I look at my watch and it’s been 30 minutes exactly which means the cameras should be out. By the time the door closes, Damon is out of his seat, screaming into Will’s face.

Damon- Why in the fuck do they think you’re the Chesapeake fucking Ripper?!

Will responds in a calm voice.

Will- It’s good to see you too dad. Can we please sit down and talk?

He moves towards his chair and I’m just glad Damon allowed him that small comfort. Let’s just say, Damon and Will have a very complicated relationship. The main issue being Will’s continue denial of his supernatural nature. It makes Damon think Will is ashamed of us but I don’t think that’s the case. With eyes like Damon’s, Will focuses on me.

Will- Hello father, I’m happy to see you.

Damon huffs beside me but I ignore him.

Klaus- It’s good to see you to my heart. Now, explain to us what’s going on?

He looks at Damon.

Will- Dad, are you going to allow me to talk or are you going to interrupt me every two minutes?

Damon places a hand on his forehead like it’s taking every piece of restraint he has not to jump across the table and choke the shit out of Will. Of course, I wouldn’t allow him to do that but the possibility is still there.

Damon- Look Will, I know you hate me for reasons even I don’t understand but stop trying to rile me up by being an asshole. Just tell us how in the fuck you got in the place, so we can come up with a plan to get you out. Then, we will go back to our life and leave you alone to this pathetic excuse of a life you’re living here.

Will gets a smirk on his face that is very much like Damon’s when he’s about to say something cruel.

Will- You could always just leave. Between my father , Aunt Bonnie, and Uncle Lucien, I’m sure they can help me just fine.

He knew it would hurt Damon to exclude him and for the life of me, I don’t know why they hate each other so much. I mean I know where it comes from, I just hoped their relationship would get better as Will got older. Obviously, I was very wrong but that’s a story for another day.

Klaus- Can you both please stop? Will, talk to us please.

Will- It all starts with a man named Hannibal Lecter.

Nightfall

Wolf Trap, Virginia

Will ’s Home

Klaus P.O.V.

After speaking with Will, we all decided to go back to Will’s home to come up with a plan to get Will out of his situation without the use of our supernatural capabilities. Damon was ready to use a little mind control to walk Will out of the front doors of the insane asylum but, that would only be half the battle. Too many people knew the reason why Will is behind bars and since Will wants to continue working for the FBI, we have to come up with another way . Anyway, since we’ve returned back to the cabin, Damon has been very quiet and I know the reason why. Damon has always had a hard time with the fact that Will preferred me over him. No matter what Damon did to make Will happy, it was never enough. I still remember their worst argument when Will was 16 years old and Will loved his gifts from everyone except Damon.

Flashback

New Orleans

Mikaelson Manor

Will’s 16 ^th  Birthday Party

Klaus P.O.V.

Damon is so excited for Will’s surprise birthday party but I personally think it’s sad. When I look around at everyone invited, I notice it’s nothing but family members/ friends here. I look around to see Rebekah, Marcel, Haley, Bonnie, Lucien, Stefan and Elena. Will doesn’t have one friend here and being surrounded by murderers and psychopaths doesn’t seem like a great kid’s birthday party to me. Anyway, it’s  too late now, everyone is here and we are waiting for Elijah to bring him home since he took him to the bookstore to buy more Shakespeare. I hear Elijah’s car pull up and Damon comes towards me smiling.

Damon- Come on baby it’s time!

I grab his hand and stand at the front door with the others. The house is decorated like something out of a magazine of the best birthday decor ever. My attention is now on the front door opening and everyone screams out, “Surprise!” Will actually jumps back a little before getting a look on his face that tells me shit is about to hit the fan.

Will - Why does it look like party city vomited in our house?

Shit. Damon steps forward.

Damon- It’s a surprise birthday party since you turn 16 today!

Will- I’m well aware I’m 16 today but I don’t remember saying anything about wanting a party.

Damon looks crushed and luckily, Bonnie steps in to defuse the situation. She runs up to Will and gives him a big kiss on his cheek.

Bonnie- Well, I love parties and cake! So get your cute butt in here so we can sing happy birthday and you can read me some of your poetry.

This actually makes Will smile and everyone watches them walkaway . My sister gives Damon a side hug.

Rebekah- Don’t take it personally, teenagers are natural born assholes.

Damon- It’s fine! I need to grab something from the bedroom.

Klaus- Love....

He cuts me off.

Damon- Stop it Klaus!

He storms away and I watch him walk towards our bedroom. This battle between Damon and Will seems never ending. Lucien tries to break the tension with a joke.

Lucien- Well, now I know why I never wanted kids....there’s only room for two psychopaths in my family, you bring in a crazy kid and shit could get wild!

He pats me on the back and we all walk into the living room surprised by the scene in front of us. Will and Bonnie are on the floor while she has her head leaning on a pillow eating cake as Will gestures wildly while reciting some poem. I can’t help thinking this is the type of birthday party Will really wanted. He’s a simple child while Damon wants him to be so much more. We all take seats  around them while my mind floats to Damon. He still hasn’t returned yet but I decide to put my son first today . I’ll check on Damon later. Once he finishes his poem, everyone claps and I believe it’s time for gifts.

Klaus- As much as we love your poetry my heart, can we please open some gifts?

Will- Sure.

Bonnie hops up and runs over to a large bag.

Bonnie- I want to go first! Your Uncle and I think you will really enjoy this!

The way she’s smiling at him, I pray to God he loves it because if he doesn’t, her feelings will truly be hurt. I watch as he throws the paper out of the bag and pulls out a fucking kill kit! However, I’m confused because Will is smiling at it!

Will- Thank you Aunt Bonnie and Uncle Lucien! I really wanted one of these murder case kits where I can build a psychological profile on the killer and solve the case!

Lucien- You’re welcome kid! Who knows, you may be investigating one of our cases one day!

He laughs his signature laugh while Bonnie smiles besides him. Only they would find the prospect of prison funny. Anyway, everyone steps forward with their gifts and although Will would never admit it, he looks around for Damon for a split second before going back to his presents. After all his gifts are opened from everyone else, he focuses his attention on me.

Will- And what did my father get his favorite child?

He’s so ridiculous. He acts like he has another sibling out there somewhere. I decide to mess with him.

Klaus- What makes you think I got you something?

Will- By the happiness flowing off of you, I know you got me something!

Fucking empath! I smile and gave him his gift from me. He rips open the package and the scream he lets out is enough to burst an ear drum!

Will- How???!!!!

He’s so happy! I found him the first edition of Shakespeare’s poems and it was not cheap!

Klaus- We looked high and low! Do you like it?

He runs over to me and gives me a quick hug, which is rare for him. Our darling son does not like to be touched at all. Every time he touches someone, he takes the risk of absorbing some of their personality that’s not always comfortable for him.

Will- I love it. Where is dad?

Sometimes, I don’t know how to take Damon’s and Will’s relationship. Will is an empath so maybe he feels bad about the sadness he  felt flowing off of Damon.

Klaus- He’s not feeling well.

Will- Since when does a vampire get sick?

Once again, Bonnie swoops in and saves the day.

Bonnie- Why don’t you show us the books Klaus got for you?

Will gives me one last lingering look before following Bonnie back into the living room. If I would have known how bad the night was going to get between Will and Damon, I probably would have let Bonnie take Will home with her. I guess hindsight isn’t worth shit.

3 Hours Later

Everyone has left and Will is sitting with me in the kitchen eating more of his cake. I already knew it was a matter of time before he brought his dad up.

Will- Is dad feeling better?

Klaus- Not really but did you enjoy your birthday?

Will- It would have been nice if both parents were present.

I rub a hand down my face.

Klaus- He wanted to be there but he really didn’t feel well.

Will- You don’t have to lie for him father.

I take a deep breath before responding.

Klaus- I need you to answer my next question honestly.

Will- Okay.

Klaus- Why do you have so much anamosity towards your dad ? He tries so hard to make you happy, what am I missing?

Will- He wants me to be something I’m not.

Klaus- What does that mean?

He doesn’t get a chance to answer because Damon chooses that moment to enter the room. He focuses on Will and I already know he heard every word Will said.

Damon- Please explain what you mean by that?

Will- Fine! I sometimes wish you’d get pregnant again and finally have a child that you can dress up like a damn doll!

Klaus- Will!

Damon holds up a hand to stop me from saying anything else.

Damon- What in the hell do you mean dress up like a doll?! I’m sorry if I don’t want my son walking around looking homeless! You come from money Will! Get over it!

Will- Well I like my clothes and I like gifts that matter! Let me guess... you bought me some expensive ass car didn’t you?

Shit..Damon did buy him a car.

Damon- So I’m a bad parent because I want you to be able to drive yourself to school instead waiting for one of us to give you a ride.

Will- My father and our family don’t mind taking me to school! It seems like you are the only one that has an issue with it !

Damon- You know what, I’m tired of dealing with your ungrateful ass! You remind me everyday how lucky I am I didn’t have another child, God forbid they end up like you! Good night!

I look at Will and he’s close to tears. This is such a fucking mess!

End of Flashback

Meanwhile..........

Damon P.O.V.

Once we got back to Wolf Trap after visiting Will, I decided to take a walk around the property to clear my head. As I replay the words Will said over in my head, I’m starting to believe I should go home and leave everything to them to figure out. I find an open clearing next to a beautiful lake and decide to sit there for awhile. I guess I was too deep in thought because I’m just now realizing someone is standing in front of me.

Damon- Bon bon, what are you doing here?

Bonnie- You know I needed to check on my favorite person. Can I have a seat?

She points towards my lap and I move my arms to make room for her. Once she is comfortable, I wrap my arm around her waist and lean my head on her back.

Damon- We are playing a dangerous game Bonnie.

Bonnie- What are you talking about?

Damon- You know whenever we become too affectionate with each other, the boys seem to think we are fucking.

We both laugh.

Bonnie- They have been thinking that for years. Anyway, tell me what’s on your mind. You didn’t look too happy after visiting with Will.

Damon- I’m just thinking of all the ways I have failed Will.

She jerks in my lap, turning herself around so that her legs are bracketing my hips. I wrap my arms back around her waist and pull her closer to me. I know this looks bad and I pray the boys don’t come looking for us. I lean my head on her chest as she strokes her fingers through my hair.

Bonnie- You have not failed Damon. You try very hard to be a good parent but unfortunately, none of that will matter until Will can forgive you for what you said at his 16^th birthday party.

Damon- I have tried everything to get him to forgive me and over the last 10 years, the most I can get out of him is a rare “ I love you.”

She pulls my hair to get me to look at her.

Bonnie- You all will get there eventually . The good thing is that you have all the time in the world. Just continue to be there for him no matter how much he tries to push you away and everything will work out.

Damon- I hope so.

She leans towards me for a quick peck on the lips before pulling back and looking at me with an emotion I can’t decipher.

Damon- Whatever you’re thinking beautiful, please remember we belong to two insane and posessive men.

I run my fingers through her soft curly hair before continuing.

Damon- We wouldn’t live long enough to enjoy whatever you think we can be and I love you too much to be responsible for your death.

Bonnie- You’re right. Let’s head back to the cabin before people start missing us.

Damon- Okay.

I give her one last hug and we both walk towards the cabin.

Author’s P.O.V.

Unfortunately for Damon and Bonnie, someone was watching the whole scene unfold and planned on using this information to get what they really wanted.

Chapter Text

Damon P.O.V.

As we get closer to the house, I notice Klaus on the porch with a strange look on his face.

Bonnie- Hi Klaus!

He doesn’t speak to Bonnie and focuses on me instead.

Klaus- Are you feeling better?

I look at Bonnie.

Damon- I’m going to stay outside with Klaus for a little while. Why don’t you go find Lucien.

She nods and walks into the cabin. Once she’s out of sight, I look at Klaus.

Damon- What in the fuck is wrong with you?!

Klaus let’s out a dry chuckle.

Klaus- You want to know what’s wrong with me.? Why in the hell is my mate going to other people for comfort when he should be fucking coming to me!

Damon- Bonnie is not other people!

The next thing I know, Klaus has me up against the side of the cabin by my neck.

Klaus- I dare you say her name again!

I don’t struggle and I don’t speak. I can tell by the glow of his yellow eyes he is very close to really losing it.

Klaus- Whatever you and Bonnie are planning, I will kill you before you can ever take one step away from me.

Damon- Bab....

He cuts me off.

Klaus- Don’t say another fucking word to me until you wipe her fucking lipstick off your lips!

He releases my neck and I watch him walk back into the cabin. I can’t believe I allowed Bonnie to leave that type of mark on me or was it on purpose. I have to find a way to make it up to Klaus but I just don’t know how.

The Following Morning

Baltimore, Maryland

Hannibal’s Office

Damon P.O.V.

The car ride to Lecter’s office was quiet as fuck. No one was speaking are even looking at each other. I was so happy when we finally pulled up to his office, I damn near jumped out of the car before it came to a complete stop. As I’m walking towards the front door, I hear Lucien make a smart ass comment.

Lucien- Looks like someone is in a hurry to get away from us. I wonder why?

I keep walking instead of engaging with that psychopath.

As we walk through the glass doors, I see a beautiful secretary sitting at an abnormally large desk.

Secretary- Good morning, do you all have an appointment?

I step forward with a charming smile.

Damon- Actually, we don’t but this is kind of an emergency.

She blushes and once again, I hear Lucien make a smart ass comment to Klaus.

Lucien- Does he plan on stealing everyone’s woman? Are you sure he’s even gay Klaus? I’m really starting to wonder.

Before Klaus can respond or I can curse him out, the office door swings open and out walks a short fat man. Is that Hannibal Lecter? There’s no way that little troll is the Ripper or my son’s mate. Another more refined man steps out behind him. I hope that’s actually Hannibal Lecter because that makes more sense. The taller guy dismisses the short guy and looks at his secretary.

Hannibal- Lily. I thought I told you I wasn’t seeing any more patients today because I need to check on Will Graham.

Before his secretary can respond, Lucien steps up instead.

Lucien- Well, it seems like we have someone in common. Let’s step into your office and have a little chat. I would hate to expose poor Lily here to our unpleasant conversation.

Hannibal tilts his head a little bit like he’s trying to figure us out.

Hannibal- Very well. Please come in.

He stands to the side and with a sweep of his hand, he gestures us through the door. We slowly walk pass him and Lucien is the last to enter.

Lucien- Why don’t you walk in doctor, I’ll close the door behind us.

Hannibal looks a little unsure but eventually nods. He walks into his office and takes a seat behind his desk, we all choose to stand.

Hannibal- So, ladies and gentlemen, in what way do we have Will Graham in common?

Damon- Well, I’m glad you asked. You see, I can’t figure out how my son is locked up for something he didn’t do.

He looks surprised.

Hannibal- Your son?

Lucien steps closer to the desk.

Lucien- Yes his son. Please keep up Doc! We don’t like repeating ourselves.

He slams his cane down and gives his creepy smile.

Hannibal- I have to admit I’m a little shocked. I had no idea Will had any family to speak of.

He leans his elbows on his desk in a move that displays his curiosity over the situation and less like a threat.

Hannibal- If you don’t mind me asking, who are the rest of you in regards to Will.

Bonnie steps forward and I notice she hasn’t looked at me once. I wonder if it has to do with me rejecting her last night. I did it to save our lives.

Bonnie- I’m Will’s Aunt and this.....

She points at Lucien.

Bonnie- Is his Uncle.

Klaus- I’m his father.

Damon- Before you ask, yes we are his parents. Now, enough with the introductions and tell me why my son is locked up in an insane asylum while you are free?

Hannibal- I’m not sure.....

I cut him off.

Damon- Do not fuck with us Doctor Lecter. My patience is running thin and usually when that happens, someone dies.

Klaus- We know what you are and who you are.

Hannibal- And what do you think you know about me?

Lucien quickly moves behind him, with his cane against his neck. Hannibal remains calm. I guess I would too if I am the Chesapeake Ripper.

Lucien- You smell like death and we can spot another killer when we see one. Plus, my nephew told us all the information we need to know and my nephew never lies to us!

He removes his cane from his neck.

Lucien- We need the Chesapeake Ripper to display some of his art within the next few days in order to free my nephew.

Hannibal- And if the Chesapeake Ripper decides not to make an appearance?

Lucien- Well, Doctor, they don’t call us the clown King and Queen of New York for nothing. To be honest, I really hope you don’t comply because I’m itching to burn some shit up and you’re number one of list.

Hannibal literally turns pale which means he knows who they are. While Lucien let’s out a maniacal laugh, I decide to bring this conversation to a close.

Damon- You have four days to get my son cleared of all charges or else your life will be forfeited.

We all leave his office and I switch my attention to my mate.

Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane

One Hour Later

Hannibal P.O.V.

After that little visitation with Will’s family, I had alot to think about but I needed more answers from Will first. I’m currently sitting in a room waiting for them to bring Will to me. The door finally opens and when Will walks in, anger like nothing I’ve felt before races though my veins. I stand up and growl out.

Hannibal- What have they done to you?!

He sits down before responding to me. I can’t help noticing he has a limp to go along with the swollen black eye.

Will- Well hello to you too Dr. Lecter. What brings you to see me on this beautiful morning?

Hannibal- As I see you are unwillingly to answer my question, I will move forward with my reason for being here today.

Will- Please do.

Hannibal- I met your family this morning.

Will- How did it go?

Hannibal- I think it is safe to say that it was an interesting conversation to say the least. Tell me, who is the man with the cane and the one that looks almost exactly like you?

Will- I’m sure they told you who they are but I’m curious as to why you are only asking about them.

Hannibal- It seems like they are the more violent of the two.

He smiles.

Will- That sounds about right. My Uncle and Dad have no patience when it comes to my safety. I’m sure they threatened to kill you if you didn’t take them seriously. But why would the Chesapeake Ripper fear anyone.

It’s amazing that only Will is able to what and who I truly am. Fortunately, no one believes him except for his family. Which I must admit they seem like formidable opponents. However, the Chesapeake Ripper is much better.

Hannibal- I do not know why you insist I am the Chesapeake Ripper even though I have tried to do nothing more than be a friend to you.

Will- What’s that old saying, with friends like you, who needs enemies.

Clever boy.

Will- This conversation is over and I know your ego is big enough to think you can take on my family. However, I would strongly advise against it. Give them what they want or suffer the consequences.

Let the game’s begin.

Will’s P.O.V.

I can’t help smiling at the memory of Hannibal being so upset over the fact I looked like I was being abused. Little does he know, it was all just a facade and one of my many abilities aptly called illusions. I can make anyone see what I want them to see except when it comes to my parents. They were always able to see through all of my ruses to the point where my dad would scream at me to stop while my father always found it amusing. Maybe that’s why I’ve always preferred my father over my dad. My father loved my ideas of fun while my dad found it tiring. However, if I were ever in a situation where I was fighting for my life and I had to choose one parent to be my champion, I would pick my dad in an instant . My dad is beautiful and absolutely deadly. If you ever read about the mythical aquatic creature that men called Sirens, my dad would fit that description to a T. He had all of their qualities, the good and the bad. If I were able to see through the bad, maybe we would have a closer relationship. Anyway, I still love him and need him now more than ever.

Will’s Home

Late evening

Damon P.O.V.

Everyone went their separate ways after the visit at Dr. Lecter’s office. Bonnie and Lucien decided to stay at a hotel in Baltimore for some alone time while we decided to go back to Will’s house. I thought we were going to see Winston and his pack when we arrived. However, they left a note saying they were hunting for the night. The good thing about everyone being gone, is the fact I get some alone time with Klaus. Which is why I find myself sitting on the edge of the bed with just a towel on, waiting for Klaus to get out of the shower. We haven’t spoken more than a few words to each other since we got back to the cabin. I take a deep breath as I hear the bathroom door open. Instead of saying anything, he moves around the room looking for something.

Damon- What are you looking for baby?

Klaus- My pajama pants.

Damon- They are still in the suitcase.

I watch him move towards our suitcase, take out his pajama pants and slip them on.

Damon- Can we talk?

He places his hand on his hips and stares at me.

Klaus- I’m listening.

Damon- Can you please sit next to me?

He nods and sits down next to me. I angle my body towards him and grab his hand.

Damon- Klaus..baby.. I love you so much and I’m sorry I even allowed Bonnie to kiss me. I immediately told her nothing could ever happen between us because whatever she’s feeling, it’s not reciprocated.

He looks at me with tears in his eyes while gently touching the side of my face.

Klaus- I love you so much Damon to the point where I will kill you before I allow anyone else to have what’s mine.

I lean in and kiss him.

Damon- I would expect nothing less.

He pulls me onto his lap and I wrap my arms around his shoulders.

Damon- Are we okay?

Klaus- I think so.

Damon- *kiss* Make love to me.

He flips me onto my back and remove the towel I’m wearing that makes me completely naked. He starts by outlining my lips with his tongue and then slowly kissing his way towards my neck.

Damon- *groan* Baby I know you like to bleed me but please keep in mind your son will not be happy if  we mess up his guest bedroom mattress.

Klaus- *kiss* I promise not to get sloppy.

I grin while running my fingers through his hair as he starts licking down to my v line . However, I’m not prepared for the sudden bite that literally makes me scream out.

Damon- Shit! Fuck! I’m not going to last if you keep doing that!

Klaus- *kiss* that’s the point love *kiss* Tell me your mine!

Damon- Yours!

I moan out as he runs his tongue down the side of my cock.

Damon- Please..please Klaus *moan* baby

He leans over me while running a wet finger over my entrance. I can’t help withering and moaning from the anticipation of him finally sliding into me.

Klaus- Just look at you. I wonder what your Bonnie would think if she saw you now.

I hope he’s not expecting a response because I was too overwhelmed with all the pleasure I’m currently experiencing. Until everything stops. I open my eyes to try and figure out what is going on. His next words made a cold chill go through my entire body.

Klaus- Remember the way you shake and shiver when I touch you the next time you think about fucking Bonnie.

He stands up and leaves the room. Fuck. My. Life.

3 Days Until the Deadline

Baltimore State Hospital for the Criminally Insane

Will P.O.V.

As I sit in my glass cage, my thoughts turn towards Hannibal. He only has 3 days left to free me and I can’t help wondering, if he’s going to challenge my family. My thoughts are interrupted when Matthew tells me I have a visitor. I’m about to ask who it is until I see Jack Crawford walk into the room. He takes a seat in the chair that’s in front of my glass prison and doesn’t start talking until we are alone.

Jack- Will Graham, a man of many secrets.

Will- Hello to you too Jack.

Jack- I see you’ve had visitors lately. Care to talk about that?

Will- I don’t know what you’re talking about Jack.

Jack- You are far from stupid Will! Tell me who these people are to you!

He holds up a picture of my parents, Uncle Lucien and Aunt Bonnie.

Will- Why do you have pictures of my family?

Of course I know why they are here but I like seeing the worry on Jack’s face.

Jack- Why didn’t we know you had a family?

Will- Did I miss the part where you asked about them?

Jack- This isn’t a game Will!! Lucien and Bonnie are notorious criminals that no one wants to face and these two people.... ( he points to the picture of my parents) are like ghost! Now, I need to know why they are in my city!

Will- I thought when a person is accused of a crime they didn’t commit, their family members usually visit them. Is that not right Jack?

Jack- Let me guess, Hannibal Lecter is still the Chesapeake Ripper and you are completely innocent.

Will- I never said I was completely innocent.

He stands up with such force, the chair he was sitting in is knocked to the floor.

Jack- Fine! If you want to play hard ball, let’s fucking play! If your family does anything illegal in my city, I will arrest all of their asses!

As I watch him walk away, I can’t help thinking that Jack is going to get himself killed if he goes against my family. Oh well, I tried to warn him...I think.

Meanwhile...................

Ritz Carlton

Bonnie P.O.V.

I made a huge mistake. I think I ruined my friendship with Damon when I tried to somewhat convince him we could be good together. I thought we could leave Klaus and Lucien behind to live our lives in peace, to see what a healthy relationship looks like....feels like. Now, don’t get me wrong, I enjoy an occasional kill here and there. However, I’m tired of the Lucien roller coaster and I want to get off of the ride. If I don’t, it’s just a matter of time before he kills me or I kill him. While I was thinking all of this, Lucien walks back into the room.

Lucien- What evil thoughts are swirling in that pretty little head of yours?

Bonnie- After we are done helping Will, I believe we need to spend some time apart.

He let’s out a horrifying laugh.

Lucien- I had no idea you were a witch and a comedian. I know a joke when I hear one.

Bonnie- I’m serious Lucien!

As soon as the words leave my mouth, I find myself laid out on the bed with Lucien laying on top of me, holding my head steady by my neck. He hisses....

Lucien- The only way you will leave me is in a body bag! I suggest you get rid of those stupid fucking fantasies of running away with Damon Salvatore!

How does he know I was thinking about Damon? I whisper...

Bonnie- This has nothing to do with Damon and everything to do with my happiness.

He releases my neck and stands next to the bed, looking down on me.

Lucien- I am your fucking happiness.

He fixes his hair and clothes before saying his next words.

Lucien- I need to step outside and make a few phone calls. By the time I get back, I expect for you to be naked and have a better fucking attitude.

I don’t watch him leave the room. I look up towards the ceiling while a lone tear falls down my cheek and one thought runs through my head.... I have to find a way out of this with or without Damon.

Nightfall

Baltimore, Maryland

Hannibal Lecter Home

Hannibal P.O.V.

I arrive home with Will on my mind as well as the fact I have only 3 days left to display my art. As I walk towards my kitchen, all of a sudden, the light turns on. I slide my scalpel to my hand, take my shoes off and stand in the doorway, surprised by who I see.

Hannibal- Well, I wasn’t expecting you to be here.

Damon- I’m just full of surprises.

Hannibal- That you are. Why are you here?

Damon- I’m just here to remind you that you are running out of time.

I sit at my kitchen table opposite of him.

Hannibal- Are you alone?

He gives me a strange smile.

Damon- Trust me, I don’t need help when it comes to you.

I love being underestimated. It’s time to push Mr. Salvatore to see if I can get the type of response I want.

Hannibal- Well, I am glad you stopped by because there is something I need to tell you.

I expected him to say something but he remains quiet. I elect to continue.

Hannibal- I have no plans of displaying my art to release Will and before you think to try and kill me, I have some interesting information to share with your husband about you that will get him to side with me.

He leans towards me a little.

Damon- May I ask what you think you have on me that would turn my husband against me?

I smile with all teeth.

Hannibal- Let’s just say, while I was doing a little surveillance on Will’s house one evening, I happened upon you and someone that was definitely not your husband sitting on your lap kissing.

He shows no emotion at all.

Damon- I thought I smelled death around us.

What does he mean by that? However, before I could ask my question out loud, he moves around the table so quickly, I can barely track his movements with my eyes before he has his hand around my neck. He hisses in my ear.

Damon- You threatened the wrong fucking person!

Those are the last words I hear before everything goes black.

Meanwhile...............

Wolf Trap, Virginia

Will’s  Home

Klaus P.O.V.

I’ve been looking for Damon for the last 3 hours and I’m getting concerned by the minute. I should have known better than leaving him alone when I went to speak with Winston about a few other issues bothering me about Will. Anyway, we I got home about an hour later, Damon was nowhere to be found. I called his cellphone and Lucien. However, no one has seen him and that is never a good thing when it comes to Damon Salvatore. I call the one person I really don’t want to speak to right now.

Bonnie- Klaus?

Klaus- Have you seen Damon?

Bonnie- I don’t even get a proper hello?

Klaus- I don’t have time for your games little girl. Have you seen him or not?

Bonnie- No I have not.

Klaus- Can you create a locator spell to find him?

Bonnie- Not at this moment but I will try later.

Klaus- Are you so fucking busy that you can’t try right now?!

Bonnie- Actually I am unless you can convince your best friend not to have hate sex with me in the next 5 minutes!

I’m so tired of their bull shit to to the point where I hang up the phone. I just hope he did not go after Hannibal by himself. Damon has no patience when it comes to Will and if he kills him before we get what we really want, Will is going to be pissed.
