ImPrecation (Book four of ReIncarnated series)

Chapter VI: Unannounced Guest

A man stood in the doorway, his face looking anxious as he stared back at me. I felt something from him- it was uncomfortable for me though. Like I wanted to jump this guy- but at the same time I wanted to punch him. It felt like a hand was wrapped around my throat as I stared at him.

"Frankie, who is it, love?" Klaus asked as he walked to stand behind me. He looked at the man in front of me, confused. "Who are you?" He asked the man directly. The man tore his gaze from me, his hope seemingly crashing as he looked to Klaus.

"This is going to be so complicated to explain- is Kai here?" He asked. There was something that made me tilt my head at him as I stepped forward towards him. His eyes looked back at me, filling back up with love and hope. Desire. My hand raised and lightly cupped his cheek as my eyebrows furrowed. Klaus stayed back, watching- equally as confused as he was before if not more. "Darlin'.." The man spoke carefully. A warmth filling the hole in my heart.

"Kol." I whispered out. Klaus stepped forward.

"What do- Frankie, this isn't Kol." Klaus told me, carefully. Like he was afraid I was having a mental break. I shook my head at him.

"No, this is. I can feel it." I told him in a low whisper, my eyes staring into this mans eyes. I could feel Kol's soul. It was such a weird sensation. Such a weird thing. "What happened to you?" I questioned as I rubbed my thumb over his cheek bone.

"Kai sent my soul into another body- it was his plan. He can bring me back to my own. I can be me again." Kol explained. I smiled at him.

"So this body is not permanent?" I asked causing Kol to smile at me.

"It's not." He agreed. I pulled my bottom lip in between my teeth and smiled at him, pulling my hand away from his cheek.

"Good-" With that I pulled my hand back and slammed it into his face. A grunt leaving his throat in shock and probably pain as his head moved to the side. Klaus let out a laugh followed by a clap from behind me as Kol turned his head back to me slowly. "That's for what you put me through." I told him, my voice filled with anger. I turned away from him before looking to Klaus. "Heal him. I'm sure I heard his jaw crack." Klaus looked absolutely giddy. Probably because this is the second time I've hit someone that wasn't him.

"Frankie-" I ignored Kol's call, leaving the room.

-

I was in my room. Changing into my pajamas when I heard the door creaking open. Turning my head slightly to see Kol standing there, his eyes already scanning my body.

"Don't knock anymore?" I questioned as I continued to pull my top off. I could feel the burning of Kol's eyes lingering over me.

"Do I need too?" He asked before walking I into the room and closing the door. "Klaus is out searching for Kai. Apparently you hit him as well?" He questioned as he walked up to me. Standing behind me. I felt the back of his fingers tracing over my curves slowly.

"Kol.." I mumbled. Turning to face him. His face was throwing me off. "I can't." I told him as I grabbed his hands and pushed them away from me. "It feels like I'm cheating." Kol frowned at me, shaking his head.

"But you're not." Kol argued, lacing his fingers with mine. I stared at him as he lowered his face closer to mine. "Close your eyes." I took a breath before closing my eyes. I felt his hand leave mine before lightly touching my cheek.

Flinching back slightly as he did. "Imagine my old face, darlin'." So I did. Imagine Kol's  square jaw, his heated gaze, his soft lips- I felt his lips brush mine as I was imagining him. I leaned into him as my hands went to rest on his chest. Our lips pressed to each other lightly. Kol pulled back as something wet touched his hand. "Frankie?" I shook my head at him, my eyes still closed as tears streamed from them.

"You left me." I told him. Kol grabbed my cheeks, wiping the tears with his thumbs. He leaned in, kissing me shortly.

"I didn't want too." He told me gently, kissing me again. My lip quivered as I gripped his shirt tightly. His hand going to the lower part of my back as his other hand held my cheek.

"Kol.."

"I love you, Frankie." He breathed as he pressed his lips to my own. I moved my lips with his, tears mixing with them. Kol pulled me closer to him by my back, pressing my body to his. He walked me backwards before laying me onto my bed, falling with me. Hovering over me. He pulled back, brushing a piece of my hair away from my face. "I am not going anywhere." He vowed. I smiled up at him, nodding slightly.

"I love you, Kol." I declared, leaning up and pressing my lips to his. "No matter what face you wear." Kol laughed, shaking his head at me before kissing me again.

"And I love you, Frankie." He announced back, a quirky grin on his face. "No matter how hard you punch me." I let out a laugh before kissing him. Smothering our laughs.
