Well now that was interesting. Admitting that she liked having that power over him. It wasn't what he'd expected to hear from her today, but he couldn't deny if the roles were reversed, if he had power over someone more powerful than him. Yes he'd use it. Of course there was no one. Not in their world anyway. Unless he believed what they said about Silas. Kol's famed immortal. True immortal.
"Wasn't so hard to admit was it? Are you scared yet, about the things you say to me, about if you'll ever cross that line. If you ever go that step too far and anger me. You know I have a temper. Or do you like that too, walking along the edge? Dangerous games"
She was right about that too, the power should have been his. It usually was. With everyone else in his life, it was. But this young girl sired little over a year ago she held power over him that he'd never imagined anyone being able to. More than that, he let her. "Its not supposed to be you, no. I could make you feel what I want you to feel, starve the vervain out of your system, compel you. It wouldn't be hard, and coming here you have to know that you could never be stronger than me. Never escape if I decided to change the game. And yet you come because you know I never will. Because what's the point in allowing these feelings into my life, allowing myself to be weak enough for you to hold this power over me and not having it returned freely. And if that never happens well...then they'll tell stories of the Original Hybrid brought to his knees by love."
Ugh, that word, he used it so often as a familiarity, but when it was meant...
