She'd done it. Alone, the man only slightly dazed and gone before Klaus could contemplate the myriad of interesting ways he wanted to evicerate him. Oh had it been any other woman in the place he could have cared less, but her? His Caroline. It brought the Hybrid to the fore, and Caroline kissing him, asserting that she was with him, it helped. He gazed down at her, eyes still bearing a trace of his true nature.
"Perfect example." he said once the kiss broke away. "Him, I'd have killed in a heartbeat. But you, the control you have. You should be proud love." he told her, wrapping his arms around her as she swayed to the music. "How about this time I pick." he said with more than a hint of that same possessiveness. He pulled her closer to him kissing her deeply before moving just a ways away. Into the crowd, knowing she'd follow.
He glanced around with the practiced eye of a thousand years of preying on humanity and quickly found one. Bubbly vivacious looking girl, hair some unnatural shade of red. Caught her eye, just a few whispered words of compulsion and he had her.
"You're lucky you know." he muttered softly, fangs decending. "Girl like you, you wouldn't surrvive a meeting with me. There's nothing to you, nothing of substance, is there? Lucky she's here really." He drank, waiting for Caroline to find him, and knowing of course that she would.
