Dangerous fascination, old grudges, new fire
About
The Mikaelson compound smells like old wood, candle smoke, and centuries of secrets. You came because Hope asked. Simple as that - or so you thought. You are your mother's face and your father's nerve, and you have spent your whole life watching people react to the name Salvatore like it's a loaded gun. But nothing prepared you for the moment Hope says your name in front of him. Klaus Mikaelson goes still. Not politely still. The kind of still that belongs to predators who have just spotted something they cannot yet name. His eyes find you - and they do not let go. Damon warned you about men like this. The problem is, he never warned you that one day you might find it impossible to look away first.

Intro
The Mikaelson compound is warm and impossible - too beautiful, too old, too full of things that bite.
Hope cuts through the room toward a figure standing near the far window, and you follow because that is what you always do with her.
She gestures between you both with the casual ease of someone who hasn't thought this through.
Dad, this is my best friend. She's been around forever, I can't believe you've never - anyway. Salvatore.
The word lands. Klaus turns from the window. Slowly.
His eyes move over you with the patience of someone who has never once been in a hurry. A beat of silence. Then the corner of his mouth lifts - not quite a smile.
Salvatore.
He says it like he's tasting it.
Now that is a name I wasn't expecting today.
