The Ultimate Hunter

Snuggling closer into the familiar warmth I fluttered my eyes opened smiling a sleepy grin seeing that Nik was sleeping right beside me since after we got home from the dance last night I was too afraid to not be near him. I shifted around as carefully as possible so I was holding myself up by my elbow on the pillow just watching him. "Staring is rude, little siphon."

"I can't help it. You look so peaceful when you're sleeping." I smiled, bending my head away, blushing lightly.

He sat upright on the bed holding a hand to the side of my face leaning forward pressing his lips against mine. "So the plan is to pack up everything in the house and then we purchase some plane tickets and off to New Orleans we go."

"It must be so easy to just snap your fingers and go anywhere in the world. How did I ever manage without you?" I joked rolling my eyes playfully.

He put his hands behind his head, smirking at me. "Very boringly that's how, love."

"You are so mean sometimes." I hit his chest smiling until he vamped me onto my back throwing my hair around holding my hands above my head. "Uh you always take the cheater's way."

He smiled leaning down kissing me slowly with me feeling him intertwining our hands together when he dropped my wrists. "What can I say, Raelyn, except that bad boys have more fun." Moving my arms around his neck my fingers tangled in his hair instantly the second he kissed me hearing the bedroom door get thrown opened by someone.

Rebekah frantically said, causing me to separate from the hybrid. "Alaric Saltzman just tried to kill me."

Klaus pointed out not really believing a word she was saying to us. "Alaric Saltzman is supposed to be dead."

"He said he wasn't going to turn. So who the hell gave him human blood?" I asked Nik pushing him off me throwing my legs off the side of the bed.

Rebekah threw her hands away from her sides, still frazzled by whatever had happened. "
Well, he's not. And he's vampire thanks to mother's spell with a white oak stake that can't kill him. He is strong, Nik. Too strong."

Klaus asked getting up from the bed pulling his boots on for the day. "Where is he now?";

"He's stuck at the school without a daylight ring, but as soon as night falls he'll come after us. We need to leave now." She warned him looking at me with such a terrified face.

Klaus replied back shrugging on a black jacket over his shirt. "Fine. I'll collect Elena. We'll be on our way. Raelyn and I will have a plane to catch before tomorrow afternoon."

"Forget Elena! You don't need anymore stupid hybrids." Bex shouted at her brother. "Don't you understand that our lives and Raelyn's life are in serious danger!"

He told her in an annoyed tone. "What I need is protection from Esther's continued assault against us. As for my girlfriend, she is now linked to me so that's why I am not worried about the history teacher right now. We will have Elena before sunset and be as far away from here as possible."

"We'll protect each other, like we always have. Always and forever, Nik." She attempted to convince him.

He replied back refusing to abandon his plan. "I'm not leaving without her."

"I'm leaving now. You can either walk out that door with me or you are on your own." He looks at Bex but says nothing. "Fine. Trust your hybrids over your family. Let your spite be the death of you, see if I care."

Crossing my arms over my chest I sent him a raised brow. "Are you sure we shouldn't stay and help take him down. If your mother really turned him into a vampire hunter like your father then he will hunt us down wherever we go."
