"You deserve to die, and if the only way that'll happen is if I die too, then I'll comply" It was as if my heart was ripping through my chest, and the anger was building up inside me. How dare he make her think I was dead, how dare he use her guilt over my death to do this!

"Oh God, she's gonna let him kill her, and we're going to have to watch. Damon" Elena was panicking, I could see her chest rising and falling at a manic rate and her eyes were trying to avoid watching what was to come, but they were always drawn back.

"I think now would be a wonderful time for a plan?" Damon glanced around, Tyler was still wrestling with the door but I could see that he wouldn't open it. He wasn't old enough or strong enough to open it. I would be.

~Caroline's Pov~

"Now Caroline, I need just one thing from you before we enter the afterlife together" I could feel my hands shaking as nerves and fright gave in. I didn't need to ask to know what he wanted, he'd already tried it once and failed. But now I was stuck between a rock and a hard place, with nowhere to run, and I had no choice but to say yes.

"What could you possibly want from me? You've already destroyed my heart and killed people I loved, what else do you want?" I struck out at the floating mass of shadows and smoke, and to my surprise I felt him as my hand smacked his ribs, and their was a crack as he flew sideways into the hallway mirror.

"Well well, Miss Forbes, you got a lucky shot" He grabbed my wrist and I felt burning going up my arm. "Shame, as you'll never get another" I felt my stomach throbbing as I was thrown through the wall which led into the kitchen where I'd watched my mother die. I landed on my back as the tiles beneath me broke and I winced in pain. His face was above me when I opened my eyes.

"I want you to sleep with me" My retaliation stopped in my throat - he wanted me to what?! I hadn't really thought about the fact that my first guess had been correct, or how torturous it would be to actually have to carry out this act. I swallowed as his black coal eyes watched to see my reaction, but I couldn't breathe or look away. I was perplexed in fear staring up at him. "Oh Caroline, your so beautiful when you're not shouting in my face"

I scowled. He smirked, and suddenly he had changed shape again. Looking back at me were the most brilliant blue eyes which I'd been waiting to see. What I'd give to see them in reality again, and not just as a mask that Silas was wearing to torture me mentally.

"I realise my decayed body is not the most attractive, so I shall make love to you in Klaus' form, or maybe Tylers" His curly mousy hair descended into longer straighter darker unkept locks that jutted upwards from his head, and that British complexion turned golden brown and his eyes turned dark and alluring. "Or maybe I could switch between the two, I know that many times you were having sex with Tyler he was on your mind" My guilt left me speechless. How dare he be in my head when I was doing that! Did he have no idea what privacy was?

"Why do you need me to do that?" I didn't understand his logic, why did he want to sleep with me anyway?

"Because I need insurance, if you do this do you think your friends will forgive you? Sleeping with the enemy isn't advisable Caroline, not like you haven't done that already" I frowned, he thought I'd slept with Klaus? I hadn't had sex with him?

"I never slept with Klaus if thats what your implying, and actually he isn't classed as the enemy anymore, you are!" I knew I sounded spoilt and venemous but that's exactly how I felt. I hated him, even hearing Klaus' name come from his mouth left me feeling ill and I just wanted to rip his heart out and tear it to pieces.

"Oh Caroline, I know I'm the enemy, that's exactly what I mean" My blood started to burn in my veins before turning cold like ice. Was he saying that we'd? No...we didn't. I knew we didn't... "I didn't know that memories could be blocked in Vampire's the way it can in humans, you never cease to amaze me Miss Forbes. But sleeping with me again I'm sure will bring back the memories" I was just blinking, my chest  was hurting and my heart felt like it was swelling inside me.
