The Mystic Falls mansion was still under construction, but it was coming along swimmingly, Klaus thought. The pieces of his plans were finally falling into place and the hybrid was feeling lighter than he had in ages. After all, thanks to his grand scheme at the high school, he discovered a way to make his own pack of HYBRIDS. No longer would he be alone in the world, a wretched anomaly, a mistake against nature. Instead, he’d be the leader that he knew he was born and FORGED to be.
The sun was setting and when he heard the doorbell, though he knew exactly who his GUEST would be. After all, it was Klaus who’d invited him there. He opened the door to reveal his old friend Stefan. That mischievous glint in the other man’s eye that gave away the ripper side of him was ever present. Klaus smiled warmly, very much preferring this version of his friend. ❝ Stefan, do come in, ❞ he said as he stood aside. The dining table was set up for dinner for two. Mercilessly, Rebekah was at some school function. ❝ I take it all is well. Nothing but English and Math homework and keeping our favorite doppelgänger safe, eh ? ❞ he inquired as he closed the door and led Stefan to the dining room.
Stefan leaned against the door frame of the illustrious mansion waiting for the door to open. “Klaus,” he nodded with a mischievous grin on his face, brushing past the man to take in his friend’s new residence. His feet moved lazily as he followed behind Klaus to the dining room.
He took a seat at the table, kicking his feet up onto a free chair. “Yeah, everything’s fine. Compelled the teachers so I’m homework-free. It’s trivial and insignificant, so why do it?” Stefan’s michevious grin grew wider as he turned to look at Klaus, almost looking for approval.
