Hey guys! So I've started a new story but don't worry I'm not abandoning More Than A Slave at all. Don't worry guys.

So, in this story everyone is human. There is no supernatural. No vampire, no hybrid, no werewolf. But there will still be violence and murder. I hope you'll like it. Tell me what you thought.

Thank you to my wonderful beta, Mafalda. (Great beta but crazy girl this one.)

Chapter 1:

Caroline was seated at one of the tables at the Grill in Mystic Falls. She was having a drink with her friends. There were Katherine and Elena who were twins and looked exactly alike but who were totally different when it came to their personality. Then there were Stefan and Damon who were brothers. Damon was the older one and he was a dick. Stefan was Caroline's best friend and the nicest person she had ever met. And there was also Bonnie.

Caroline had grown up in Mystic Falls with all of them. She had always been closer to Stefan and Katherine though. They were her best friends since kindergarten even if Katherine bothered Stefan a lot.

Caroline was a unique child. She had lived with both her parents until she turned twenty and now she was twenty one, her father gone leaving her to live with only her mother. A year ago her father had been sent to jail for beating up a man. Caroline had been devastated. She went to visit him often in prison though. She really enjoyed seeing him since she was almost always alone at home. Her mother was the sheriff of Mystic Falls and she was always working. Liz never went to visit Bill. At the beginning she did but not anymore. Not surprising when the Lockwood's were the reason Bill was sent to jail and that if they wanted they could fire her at any moment after all Richard Lockwood was the mayor.

"Caroline? Are you listening?" Elena asked elbowing Caroline that was sitting next to her.

"Huh, yeah, sorry. What were you saying?" Caroline asked looking at Elena.

"Let me guess. You were thinking about naked men." Katherine exclaimed.

"Katherine! Everyone can hear you." Stefan chastised her.

"Come on, Stefan. Take that broom out of your ass." Damon sighed.

"Stop being such a jerk, Damon. Stefan is right." Caroline said curtly to Damon.

"I was not talking to you, Blondie. You are always defending Stefan. You are always on his side." Damon replied.

"Of course I'm always on his side. I won't be on yours. You are just full of bullshit." Caroline said harshly.

"Can you, guys, stop fighting all the time." Bonnie said annoyed.

"So? You can admit it Caroline. I always think about naked men. And it's been a while since you..." Katherine started but was cut off by Caroline.

"Okay, okay. We get it. But you were not supposed to say that in front of everyone." She said blushing, "And no I was not thinking about naked men. You shouldn't be thinking about naked men either. Don't you have a fiancé?"

Katherine rolled her eyes, "Of course I have a fiancé. And you perfectly know that since the wedding is in a fortnight and you are my maid of honor." she said serious.

"I don't think Elijah would appreciate you thinking about naked men though." Caroline said smirking, "Anyway, what were you saying Elena?"

Katherine had met Elijah eleven months ago. She had met him in the parking lot of the prison where Bill was. His brother was in the same prison and he had been visiting him. Katherine had driven Caroline there. Caroline had gone in the prison and Katherine had been about to go back home but she hit his car. It was love at first sight. At least for Elijah, Katherine had made him run after her for a month before eventually giving in. And now they were to marry in two weeks.

"I was saying that we should go shopping this afternoon. We still have to pick the maid's dresses." Elena said enthusiastically.

"I would love to but I have to visit my father today." Caroline said sounding sorry.

"But the wedding is in two weeks we need a dress, Care." Bonnie exclaimed.

"I know but I haven't visited him this week yet." Caroline complained.

"You'll visit him tomorrow, Blondie." Damon suggested.

"I told him I would go today." Caroline said.

"It's not like he is going to be mad at you. He'll understand. He knows Katherine's wedding is in two weeks." Elena rationalized.

"I think that if Caroline wants to visit her father she should visit him. The dresses can wait." Stefan defended her.

"The dresses can wait but I can't." Katherine said glaring daggers at Stefan.

Caroline wanted to visit her father. She missed him. She had seen him a week ago but it was difficult to get used to it when she had been living with him under the same roof only a year ago and that it had taken only a second to change it. Now he was in a prison several miles away and she could only visit him once a week. After an entire year Caroline was not used to it yet.

But then there was Katherine. She was her best friend and was getting married in two weeks with the man of her dreams. Elijah was a good man for Katherine. He was an honorable man and Caroline could tell that since she was with him Katherine had changed a little and for the better. She loved her father but she also loved Katherine and the wedding wouldn't wait for her to have a dress anyway.

"Okay, fine. We are going shopping this afternoon. But only if someone drives me to the prison tomorrow." Caroline said.

"I'll drive you." Katherine proposed, "And Elijah will visit his brother later that day so he'll drive you back."

"Okay." Caroline said smiling, "I never saw him with his brother there so I don't even know how he looks like."

"I don't know. I saw him in pictures at Elijah's but he was young in them so I don't know." Katherine explained.

"I know how he looks. Our parents knew each other and we went to his house sometimes when we were kids. Then we grew older but we still went out for a drink or something similar once in a while." Stefan explained, "Dirty blond hair, blue-green eyes."

"Oh, so he doesn't look like Elijah?" Elena asked.

"How many brothers and sisters does Elijah have anyway?" Bonnie asked.

"A lot." Damon answered nonchalantly.

"He has one sister, Rebekah, and four brothers, Finn, Klaus, Kol and Henrik but Finn is gone and Henrik is dead. Don't talk about them in front of Elijah, Rebekah and Kol though. It's a delicate subject. And don't talk about Klaus either. Elijah is okay with it but Rebekah and Kol have some difficulties with Klaus' actual predicament." Katherine explained.

"Okay, enough with this talk. I have to go home before we go shopping." Caroline said not liking the way this conversation was going.

"Sure, we'll meet in front of the grill in a hour and then we can all go together." Bonnie proposed.

"That's fine by me." Katherine said followed by Caroline and Elena who replied the same way.

Caroline entered her home and threw her keys on the table. She took her jacket off and put it on a chair. She looked around and sighed. Her home was full of memories of her father. When her father had been living there the house had always seemed full but now that he was gone it felt empty. Her mom was not home as usual and Caroline was alone.

She looked at some pictures where she was smiling with her dad and her mom on each side of her smiling too. They looked happy. They were happy. All it took was a mistake from Caroline to break that happiness. She looked away and sighed. It was all her fault.

She quickly climbed the stairs and entered her room. She opened her wardrobe and took some simple dark skinny jeans with a green tank top and went in the bathroom. She took a quick shower and quickly dried herself. She put her clothes on and curled her hair. She put a little mascara and eyeliner on her eyes and decided to put nothing on her mouth.

She went back in her room and put her black Louboutins on. She went back downstairs and put her jacket back on before grabbing her keys and leaving the empty house once more. She climbed into her car and drove toward the grill. Once she was there she quickly joined Katherine, Elena and Bonnie who were already there waiting for her.

They all went towards a wedding store and entered it. Katherine quickly headed for the maid's dresses because she already had her wedding dress, the three girls followed suit.

"I want all the maids to wear the same dress." She announced.

"But, what if we don't like the same dress!?" Caroline exclaimed.

"I don't care. I just want you three to wear the same dress." Katherine said before turning back towards the dresses not giving any opportunity for the other girls to complain. Caroline sighed and turned back in the direction of the dresses too.

"What about this one." Elena proposed showing a pink strapless dress.

"Ew, no! It's my wedding Elena. I don't want you girls to look like sluts. And you can't look sexier than me." Katherine said taking the dress from Elena's hands and putting it back in its place. Caroline couldn't help but laugh.

"You want us to look ugly?" Bonnie asked with wide eyes.

"No, of course not. But you can't be more beautiful than me." Katherine explained before turning towards the dresses once more.

They all proposed a lot of dresses and if it wasn't for Katherine saying no it was one of the three other girls, because it didn't look good on them or it didn't bring their eyes out or it was too long or too short. There was always something that wasn't right.

"What if we take the same dress but not the same color? Would that be okay with you, your highness?" Caroline asked sarcastically.

"That would be okay with me." Katherine replied knowing perfectly that Caroline was talking to her when she said 'your highness'.

Caroline took out a beautiful dark blue dress that stopped mid thigh. It was a strapless dress that was tight at the chest until the waist and then flight freely. She proposed it and they all accepted. Bonnie chose to take it in green, Elena in pink and Caroline chose to keep the dark blue.

It was with happiness and their dresses that they all came home. When Caroline entered her house she called for her mom but as usual no one answered. She just ate something quickly and went to her room to sleep.

Caroline was now in Katherine's car and looking out the window. They were on their way to the prison. Caroline was always nervous when she went there. She could see her father but she would also be in a room with all the other prisoners. They were always looking at her as if it was the first time they saw a girl in their whole lives. It was creepy. She would always focus on her father and try not to look around. Her thoughts were broken by Katherine next to her.

"When was the last time you had sex?" Katherine asked looking at the road.

"Why are you asking me this?" Caroline asked bewildered.

"You are always lost in your thoughts and I'm sure you are thinking about naked men." Katherine explained herself.

"No, I'm not." Caroline defended herself.

"You know, he doesn't look like it but Elijah is a beast in bed. He is a god. You are obviously frustrated. You should find yourself a beast, a god." Katherine said seriously, "A true man who would make you scream his name and forget all the men before him." she continued turning to Caroline.

"Katherine! Look at the road." Caroline exclaimed widely opening her eyes, "God, you are going to kill us. And I don't need a man who would make me scream his name. I'm all right on my own."

"Caroline, you are my best friend. I'm worried about you. You have to move on from Tyler." Katherine said sincerely.

"You don't understand Katherine. I've moved on. I don't love him anymore. I'm not even sure I ever did." Caroline sighed.

"I'm not talking about you still loving him. I'm talking about the fact that he broke your heart. I know that you don't want to have your heart broken again but if you don't try you will end up alone." Katherine said.

"Tyler didn't break my heart. He ruined my life." Caroline said curtly.

Katherine decided not to say anything after that comment. She was aware that she didn't know the whole story. Caroline never talked about it to anyone. Not even her or Stefan. The only people who knew were, well, Caroline, her father and her mother.

The rest of the drive was silent. After a few minutes they eventually arrived. Katherine stopped the car and turned in the direction of Caroline.

"Elijah will come in half an hour and as usual he'll stay with his brother half an hour too so you can stay with your father for an hour. You should come over and have dinner with us this evening." Katherine proposed smiling.

"Okay, no problem. I would love to. Thank you." Caroline answered smiling too, "See you later." she said before getting out of the car and walking towards the prison.

Caroline swallowed the lump in her throat. She hated this place. She didn't know how her dad could survive in it. Every time she was here she just wanted to turn around and run away as far as she could. But she stayed for her dad. She arrived at the doors and as usual she had to pass some control check before she could enter the prison.

Once they had finished checking her, Caroline could finally enter the prison. She followed two guards who would bring her to the meeting room. They walked through the corridors and Caroline could hear doors opening and closing here and there. Every time a door would open or close there would be a loud beeping sound that Caroline hated.

After a few minutes they eventually entered the meeting room that was full of prisoners, guards and people like Caroline who came to see their family or even friend sometimes. She walked inside and felt eyes on her. She didn't look around and just headed for the table the guards were pointing to her. She was very uncomfortable.

Then she heard another beeping sound that indicated a door was opened. She looked towards it and saw guards bringing prisoners to the meeting room. Her eyes caught a man with dirty blond hair. She wondered if it was Elijah's brother because she remembered Stefan saying he had dirty blond hair. Anyway, he was handsome. Caroline had to remind herself that he was a prisoner. And seeing the look on his face he seemed dangerous. He was walking menacingly and looked at everyone ready to kill them. Then his eyes met hers and she quickly looked away. She didn't need some psychopath or rapist or anything noticing the way she was staring at him but he did nonetheless.

She looked back at the door and saw her dad coming through it. That was when a smile grew on her face, a genuine smile. Her father smiled back at her and Caroline almost forgot for a moment that she was in a prison full with criminals.

They brought her dad in front of her and he sat in the chair across from her. He looked at her as if he hadn't seen her in a decade and Caroline brought her hands on the table to take his in hers. She grabbed his hands and squeezed them. A guard looked at them cautiously.

"No physical contact." He said curtly.

Caroline let go of her father's hands and looked at her hands before looking back up at her dad. He was her father and she couldn't even touch him. It was not as if he would hurt her or anything. She really hated this place.

"I'm sorry I couldn't make it yesterday." Caroline apologized, "I had to go shopping with the girls to pick a dress for Katherine's wedding." she explained.

"You don't need to explain yourself, sweetie. I understand. It's really not the best place to be in." Bill said nicely, "How is your mother?" he asked.

Caroline looked around and then back at her father, "I don't know. I guess she is okay. I don't see her much. She is never home so I'm all alone. She's always working. I think she stays at work a lot because when she comes back home she realizes how empty it is without you." she said with a sad tone.

"It will get better eventually. She just needs time to wrap her head around it." Bill reassured Caroline.

"She had an entire year to wrap her head around it. It's not getting better. It will not get better, dad. You are in jail when you shouldn't be. She blames herself and can't even look at me because she thinks I blame her. She thinks that because she is the sheriff she should have been able to do something to help you." Caroline said.

"I know, sweetie. I know. But it's not her fault. She has nothing to do with it." Bill replied.

I know it's not her fault, it's mine, Caroline thought.

"I love you, dad." Caroline said with honesty.

"I love you too. I will always love you. You are my baby, my little girl, my Carebear." Bill said.

Caroline felt a tear roll down her cheek and she smiled. She decided to change the subject because she was not comfortable crying in front of all those criminals.

"I'll be Katherine's maid of honor. I was surprised she didn't choose Elena at first. And I'm so happy for her. She is so happy with Elijah. And they are so perfect together. I'm sure they are going to have little Katherine's and little Elijah's running in a big and homey house soon enough. I'll be the godmother of course." Caroline said smiling at her thoughts.

"One day you'll find a man, a good man that will make you happy and give you a family." Bill told her smiling.

"I hope so. And you'll walk me down the aisle." She announced happy.

She could imagine it in her head and she could picture herself in a beautiful white dress, with her father on her arm and all her friends and family looking at her with smiles on their faces. She could imagine herself looking up and seeing the man she would love for the rest of her life and smile a true happy and genuine smile. She would be happy. She would have everything she wanted.

But she was brought back to reality when a man approached their table. It was a prisoner. He was dressed in orange like all the other prisoners. He was holding something behind his back and Caroline couldn't see what it was. The man came even closer and stood behind Bill. He brought his hand with something sharp in it to Bill's neck and slit his throat.

Caroline stood up abruptly and screamed. She brought her hands to her mouth to cover it and tears fell down her cheeks. Someone had just killed her father in front of her. She had no idea who the other man was or why he would do that but he did it. He killed her dad. She was devastated. Bill was now on the floor with his eyes open, but he was dead.

"DAAAADD! No! Daddy, daddy wake up. You are not dead." Caroline screamed and cried and whimpered and sniffled. She ran to him and knelt on the floor next to him. She shook him, "Daddy, please. You can't leave me. Please." she cried bending down and putting her forehead on his chest.

She was shaking. She wasn't hearing nor seeing anything that was happening around her. It was not supposed to happen like that. Bill should have stayed in jail for a few more years and then he would have been free and everything would have been like it was before. Her mom would come home more often. The house wouldn't be empty anymore. Caroline would be happy coming home. But now it was all over. Her dad was dead. Then she fell to the side because people were running everywhere and weren't paying any attention to her.

Klaus had been in the meeting room when everything had started. He was looking at the girl he had seen staring at him earlier. She was beautiful. He couldn't deny her beauty and certainly not when she was smiling. But then he saw one of the other prisoners walking behind her father and slit his throat. He saw her reaction and looked away. Her screams and cries were piercing his ears but no one cared. Everyone was running trying to get out as soon as possible. It was a true mess. Klaus knew what was happening.

He had known that something like that would happen. He had heard that some of the prisoners would attempt an escape today and that for that they had to create a distraction and he had known it would be by killing someone. Now it was chaos and it would be easier to escape. As soon as he had heard them talk about it he had planned to escape today too. He wouldn't do anything; he would just have to take advantage of the situation.

Guards were fighting with prisoners trying to keep them from running away like the civilians were doing. But there were not enough guards and Klaus noticed a few prisoners leaving the room. There were also prisoners fighting each other. It was the right moment. He had to leave the meeting room and follow the civilians outside. He would kill the guards who would try to keep him from his freedom. He started to walk towards the door from where all the civilians had left.

But then he stopped. He could still hear the girl crying and screaming. She hadn't left. She had to leave soon because they would close the entire prison and not open it back until all prisoners were under control and it could take days since at this time all the prisoners were out of their cells. He turned around and she was still at her father's side. She looked devastated. Anyway, he couldn't care. He had to leave before they closed all the doors.

He turned back in the direction of the doors and started to walk when he heard her scream louder than before. He turned around to see that one of the prisoners had grabbed her and was using her to keep the guards away from him. He looked back at the door and then back at her and sighed from frustration. It could have been Rebekah. What if Rebekah had been visiting him today and she would have been the one in her place.

His fists balled at his sides and he started to walk towards her. Damn girl and her blond hair that reminded him of Rebekah. The guards were too stupid and wouldn't even dare to approach the prisoner because they were scared he would hurt the girl. He quickly brushed past them and put his arm around the prisoner's throat behind him. He squeezed it hard.

"Let the girl go." He said in a deep menacing voice.

The prisoner let go of Caroline and Klaus squeezed his throat even tighter until the prisoner lost consciousness. He dropped him to the floor and grabbed the girl's arm roughly not even looking at her before dragging her to the doors. They left the meeting room but as soon as they were in the corridors Klaus heard the loud beeping sound that indicated that the prison was being closed. He let go of the girl's arm and hit a wall in frustration. It was too late. They were stuck now. Damn woman. He shouldn't have helped her. He should have just let her with the other prisoner. Die or be raped or beaten or whatever he didn't care.

Caroline was in shock. The man with the dirty blond hair had helped her and now he was dragging her out. Then they heard a beeping sound and he let go of her and hit the wall growling and cursing under his breath. And that's when she understood that they were stuck there. Her father was dead and she was stuck in a prison with hundreds of criminals. She was totally screwed up.

So, it was the first chapter. What do you think about it? Please leave a review and tell me if you want me to keep going with it.
