Just call me Scarlet

“Lily!” Her sister ran up to her, hugging her as she stepped out of her car. “I’m so glad you decided to come shopping with me, we have lots to discuss.” 

Lilianna hugged her sister back. “I don’t understand why we couldn’t discuss it on Saturday at family dinner, but whatever.” She locked her door then headed towards the mall, her sister walking beside her.

“Because, Lil. We have things to talk about that I don’t want mom to know.” 

“Abigail, Jacob didn’t get you pregnant did he?”

Abigail laughed “No, no. Although I think he might be close to proposing. Oh he’s such a great guy.” 

Lilianna rolled her eyes “Sure sure. So then what don't you want mom to know?” 

Abigail stopped walking “I want to help you find happiness, It’s getting close to Valentine’s day and you need a boyfriend, someone that makes you as happy as Jacob makes me and I can set you up a dating profile-”

“Abi, stop. No, I don't need your help.”

“Look, you're my older sister Lily, I just think you need someone.” 

“Well I have someone so you don’t need to butt in.” Lilianna quickly walked off into the building, heading to the nearest store. 

Abigail caught up with her a few minutes later “What? You have a boyfriend, why haven’t you told us about him? Why haven’t we met him?”

Lilianna shrugged as she picked up a top to look at it “He’s busy, owns a bar and you always talk about Jacob.” 

Abigail took the shirt from her sister, getting her attention “I insist you bring him to dinner Saturday.” 

“Seriously Abi? That's family dinner, and it's short notice.My boyfriend is a busy business owner.” 

Abigail shrugged and put the top away. “Yes, Saturday mom would be thrilled to meet your boyfriend and so would I, and if he loves you he will do it.” 

“Fine, I’ll make it happen.” 

Abigail smiled “Good, I will let mom know you have a plus one, oh this is going to be great.” 

Lilianna nodded “Yup, great.” 

Lilianna spent the rest of the shopping trip listening to her sister talk about the possibilities of double dates and plans that the couples could do but she was more focused on wondering where and how she was going to find a date for Saturday. 

She didn’t feel great about lying to her sister, but she was tired of her meddling in her love life. Abigail meant well but she never picked out great guys and she wanted to meet someone on her own terms. 

After she said her goodbyes to her sister she headed out to some bars, hoping one of the owners would help her out. 

Lilianna sighed as she sat down at the last bar for the night, “Whiskey please.” most of the bars she had went to either the bosses weren’t there or they didn’t fit the picture she had in mind. 

The bartender handed her the drink “rough night?” 

“Yeah, you could say that” she wasn’t even going to bother asking about the owner at this place but after a moment she gave in “Hey, is the owner here?” 

The bartender nodded “Both of them are, which one do you need?” 

Both, great, probably a married couple. “Forget it.” she grabbed her wallet and stood, when she turned to leave she bumped into a guy. “I’m sorry.” 

“No worries, I’m one of the owners, did you need something?” 

The man was good looking, looked around her age and she noticed he didn’t have a wedding band. “Out of curiosity, who do you run this place with?” 

The man chuckled “My brother, is that what you needed?” 

“No, Uh.” She laughed nervously “do you have an office or somewhere private we could talk?” 

“Sure, follow me.” 

Lilianna followed him outside the bar and down an alley, part of her screamed it wasn’t worth it but she continued on. 

He stopped and turned “This is the quietest place we will find in New Orleans tonight, at least until a drunk couple shows up.” 

She nodded “Right, I’ll get to the point. I'm Lilianna and-” she sighed “I told my sister I was dating a bar owner so that she would quit meddling in my love life and now she wants me to bring my non-existent boyfriend to family dinner on Saturday.” 

The guy laughed, “And you want me to be your boyfriend?” 

“Just one night, and I will pay you, I have a thousand dollars saved up which probably isn’t much to you seeing as you own a bar.” 

“Lilianna, I appreciate the offer but-” the guy paused “You know what? Yeah Saturday works for me. I'm Niklaus, but people call me Klaus.” 

Lilianna smirked, “Can I call you Nik?” 

“No. Now what time is dinner on Saturday?” 

“Right, dinner is at six.” She pulled out a piece of paper from her purse and wrote down her number and the address. “Here’s my number and my moms address.” 

Klaus smirked as he took the paper. “I’ll text you later, so we can come up with how we met and how long we’ve been dating, and I will see you saturday.” He placed the paper in his pocket then walked off. 

She leaned against the wall for a moment, taking a breath. She got the date, and he was willing to work on a plan, all she needed to do was make sure everything went off without a hitch. 

Lilianna was staring at the clothes in her closet, wondering what outfit to wear. Usually she just wore shorts and a comfy t-shirt to her moms but this time she was showing up with a boyfriend. 

After about ten minutes of staring she picked out some jeans and a cute crop top her sister had bought her, something she had never worn before. Once she got dressed she fixed her hair and did her makeup making sure to look nice and girlfriendish as her sister would put it.

As it got closer to time for him to pick her up she paced, wondering if he was even going to show. She had already sent him the money and was starting to regret it, thinking she should have waited until after the date. 

Lilianna was about to get a drink from her fridge when there was a knock on her door, as she ran to answer it she stumbled and almost fell, catching herself on the small table that was by the door, she steadied her breath and opened the door. “Hey Klaus.”

“Everything ok? A lot of noise was going on.” Klaus smirked. 

“Oh yeah, all good. Ready?” 

He looked at her up and down “Yeah I’m ready, are you?”

She grabbed her small purse from the table and her keys. “Ready.” 

Klaus opened the car door for her, “That's a really nice outfit, although you didn’t have to wear makeup.” 

She smiled as she got in. “Thanks I don’t usually wear this kind of top, and no offense but all guys say you don't gotta wear makeup but we all know it makes us look better.” 

Klaus laughed “Not all guys are like that.” he winked as she shut the door and went around. 

When they got to her moms Abigail was standing on the porch, her boyfriend right beside her. She took a deep breath and stepped out. “Hey Abi, Hey Jacob.” 

Jacob smiled, “Hey Lily.” 

“Lily, tell your boyfriend to get out. No need to be shy.” Abigail smirked as she walked towards them. 

When Klaus got out Abigail stopped dead in her tracks. “Woah, you didn’t tell me he was hot. Honestly Lil, I thought he was fake or ugly since you’ve been hiding him.”

Klaus laughed. “That’s my fault, I’ve been busy.” 

Lilianna nodded “Like I told you, he’s a busy man.” 

Abigail linked her arm with Lilianna “well let’s get inside so mom can see this hunk of a man you brought home.” 

Once she stepped inside her mother hugged her “Lily, i’m so happy you made it- where’s your plus one?” Her mother looked until she spotted Klaus right outside the door smiling, “Oh my, it’s cold outside, hurry and come in.” 

Klaus nodded and slowly stepped inside, closing the door behind him, then grabbing Lilianna’s  mother’s hand and kissing the back of it “thank you so much for allowing me to join your family dinner.” 

“Oh my, aren’t you sweet. Lily, you got yourself a good one.” She smiled, “I’m Beth.” 

“Lovely to meet you Beth, I’m Niklaus but you can call me Klaus.” 

“Well let’s quit just standing around and head to the kitchen, James is going to love you.” 

They all followed Beth to the kitchen, she sat down beside a man. Abigail and Jacob sat across from them and Lilianna sat beside her mom, leaving  the end spot open for Klaus. 

“Klaus, this is James, Lily and Abi’s dad. James, Honey this is Klaus he’s Lily’s boyfriend.” Beth spoke once everyone was seated. 

James looked at Klaus “Pleasure to meet you, so how did you and my daughter meet?” 

Klaus took a drink of the water in front of him before speaking. “She came into my bar one night looking stunning and I felt like I had to talk to her. We sat down and talked for hours. I ended up asking her on a date and we’ve been together ever since.” 

Abigail looked at Lilianna “Since when do you go to bars.” 

Lilianna shrugged, “You keep buying me cute tops. I thought I’d wear them somewhere.” 

Jacob rolled his eyes. “It’s hard to believe you’ve been dating for two months and we didn’t know about you until now.” 

Klaus nodded “I understand, but Lilianna and myself wanted to keep things under wraps until we’ve been together longer.” 

Beth shook her head “A shame, but I understand. Our Lily hasn’t had the best luck with men. Did you know she used to date Jacob?” 

“Mom!” Abigail glared at Beth. “That isn’t something me or Lily like to talk about.” 

“I actually did know that, and as I told your daughter she deserves someone that won't look at her sister that way.” Klaus smirked.

Abigail nervously chuckled “It wasn’t like that, I didn’t intentionally steal him” Lilianna rolled her eyes at that comment as Abigail continued on “It just happened.” 

Klaus, noticing the eye roll, laughed “I’m sure, well that’s fine because you taking him from her allowed us to meet and I'm madly in love with her.” 

Abigail smiled, “Good, then we should do a double date for Valentine’s.” 

Lilianna hurried and finished the bite in her mouth “We can’t, he’s busy.” 

“Oh come on, if he’s really in love with you he would miss work for an important holiday.” Abigail smirked as she took a drink. 

Klaus put his hand on Lilianna’s knee and looked at Abigail.  “I had planned something alone for the two of us but I'm sure I can push it back a little for dinner with you and Jacob.” 

Lilianna sighed, she didn’t have any more money to offer him. She looked at Klaus. “But love, I thought you were going to be busy?” 

Klaus shrugged “I only told you that so you wouldn’t know I was planning something special.” 

Abigail clapped, “Great, it’s settled, the four of us will do dinner on Valentines.” 

“Greaaat, I can’t wait to spend Valentine's Day with my sister, her boyfriend and mine-” she downed the water and stood up “I’m tired mom, mind if me and Klaus head back?” 

Beth stood and hugged her daughter “not at all, have a safe drive back.” 

The drive back to her house was quiet, she didn’t say anything until he was parked in front of her building. “Wanna come in for some coffee?” 

“Sure.” Klaus shut the car off and stepped out. “Just so you know you have to invite me in.” 

“Uh, weird but okay.” Lilianna shrugged and unlocked her door. “Klaus, come on in.” 

“Thank you, Lilianna.” He stepped inside as she headed towards the kitchen.

She stayed silent until she had the coffee pot going. “So uh I can’t pay you anymore money. I’ll just tell Abi I ended things.”

Klaus stepped closer to her. “Don’t worry  about the  money.” 

“You mean you’d do it for free?” Lilianna started to smile. 

Klaus smirked and closed the space between them, her back against the counter. “I didn’t say that.” 

She gulped “Uh I’m sorry I won't pay with sex.” 

Klaus laughed, sending chills down her back. “Oh pet, you can pay me in your blood.” 

“I’m sorry what?” Lilianna started to panic “Are you some serial killer, a freak with a blood fetish? Oh my god, I'm going to die.” 

She met Klaus’s eyes and small veins started to appear, as he flashed her his fangs. “You won’t die…. yet.” 

“What-”

Klaus chuckled.“Always the same response from you humans, I like you. I find your bravery of hiring a stranger interesting and I will continue to be your boyfriend in exchange for blood.” 

“If I say no?” Lilianna’s voice cracked.

“Then you die.” Klaus shrugged.

“All I do is give you some blood, and you go to family things with me as my boyfriend, but if I say no then you kill me?”

“Pretty much.” one of his hands wrapped around her waist, pulling her to him and moving some of her hair, exposing a side of her neck. “Don’t worry, it won’t hurt much.” 

“N-not there” She sighed “If we do this you can't bite somewhere that it can be seen.Please.” 

Klaus nodded “Then take off your shirt.” 

Lilianna took a deep breath before moving her hands to the bottom of her shit “It won't hurt?” 

“Not at all.” 

She nodded and lifted her shirt above her head and let it drop to the floor, her heart racing as Klaus stared at her for a moment before digging his fangs right above her left breast, a moan escaping her lips. 

The second she had moaned Klaus had her on the counter, her hands rested on the counter and her head leaned back as he fed. It was clear to her, to both of them she was enjoying it as much as he was. 

When he pulled away she couldn’t help but let out a small sigh, causing Klaus to chuckle. She looked at him, blood - her blood was still on his lips. “So that’s it? Did you still want cof-” 

Klaus kissed her, cutting her off. Her hands wrapped around him as they kissed, she wanted him and she had no clue why. She knew she should be terrified, vampires were real and she had found one- had made a deal with one. But all she wanted was for this man to take her right then. 

He broke away from the kiss. “No, I don’t want coffee. I’ll see you on Valentine's day.” He winked and left. 

She stood in her bathroom looking in the mirror, she had her hair up nicely and found a pretty red dress for the date. She was putting in rose earrings when she heard a knock. She looked at her watch then grabbed her phone and purse then headed to the door, opening it. “You’re early.” 

Klaus licked his lips, smirking “You look....delicious.” 

Her heart raced and she could feel her face starting to flush. “Thanks. We should go.” 

He stepped in, grabbing her by the waist and pulling her to him. “But I’m early, you said so yourself.” 

“B-but my dress is thin strapped, and the back is open- I just don’t see how I could hide a bite mark.” 

He pressed his lips to hers for a moment, just as she melted into it he pulled away. “Your thighs are covered.” 

Before she could protest or come up with an excuse he picked her up effortlessly, walked into the kitchen and set her on the counter. She held in her breath as his hands moved her dress up and gripped her legs, moving them just enough. Her hands clutched the edge of the counter as he bit down on the inside of her right thigh. 

Once again she couldn’t help but let out a moan, leaning her head back and relaxing. After a few minutes he stopped, licking the blood off his lips as he fixed her dress and helped her off the counter, allowing her to steady herself before letting go. 

She kept quiet as she picked her phone and purse off the floor and headed out. Getting to his car, Klaus quickly opened her door once she was in he shut it and went around. 

The car ride to the restaurant was quiet, she wasn’t sure what to say, it wasn't like she could have told him no or to stop, she had made a deal, and it wasn’t like she didn’t enjoy it. If she was being honest she didn’t even want to go out anymore, she wanted to be in her bed with him. 

After Klaus parked the car he was out and getting to her door before she could unbuckle. “How does no one notice your speed?”

Klaus shrugged, “no one really pays attention.” 

Her sister and Jacob were already at the table waiting, Abigail smiled and waved “Lil, Klaus!” 

Klaus pulled her chair out for her and pushed it in before sitting next to her. “Sorry if we made you wait, Lilianna just looked too delicious.” 

She felt her face getting hot, Abigail laughed “no worries, we like just got here. We haven’t even ordered drinks yet.” 

Jacob nodded in agreement. “We were thinking of a red wine though.” 

Klaus looked at Lilianna as he spoke “that would be fine.” 

She stood up “excuse me, I need to go to the bathroom.” she rushed off, getting to the bathroom she looked in the mirror and took deep breaths. 

When she stepped out she bumped into Jacob. “Hey Lily, can we talk?” 

“I guess.” 

“I don’t like Klaus, something is off about him” 

She scoffed “oh that's rich coming from you, look I happen to love that man and you probably don’t like him because unlike you he’s a gentleman.” 

Jacob sighed “I just hope you know what you’re doing.” 

She walked past him, stopping a moment when she saw how close her sister had gotten to Klaus. She took a deep breath and continued on. “Abi, you’re in my seat.” 

Abigail looked flustered and scooted over “I’m sorry, I was just getting to know your boyfriend.” 

Klaus stood up “Actually, she started hitting on me the second Jacob left, I think we should go, Lilianna.” 

Abigail chuckled nervously “It wasn’t serious Lily, I just wanted to make sure he wouldn’t hurt you. He passed the test.” 

“He didn’t need to be tested Abi, and honestly I don’t believe you.” she grabbed Klaus’s hand “we’re going to go and do what Nikky originally had planned for us.” 

When they got to the car he pinned her to the door, his hand around your throat. “If I told you not to call me Nik, what makes you think I’d allow Nikky.” 

“I was just trying to be cute," she breathed. 

He growled and let go of her neck, moving her aside and opening the door “Don’t do it again.” 

She nodded and sat down. She was both scared and turned on by what had just happened. She sighed and looked out the window. 

Once they were in her apartment she tossed her wallet and phone on the table and turned to him. “Okay get it over with.” 

He stepped close to her, sliding a strap off her shoulder “you sure you want me to just get it over with?” 

She wanted to say yes,so that he would leave and let her be alone. But she found herself undoing the zipper of her dress, staring at him as it dropped to the floor. 

He licked his bottom lip and picked her up, carrying her to the bedroom and laying her on the bed, kissing her hungrily as he groped her breast. 

After a few seconds he broke the kiss and moved down, moving one of his hands and replacing it with his mouth. She let out a breath, after a while he switched and moved to the other one. Lilianna relaxed fully, 

Klaus kissed her stomach, moving down and biting her thigh in the same spot as before. She let out a moan and gripped the sheets. 

She sighed when he pulled away, she sat up, watching him lick her blood from his lips. “Klaus” 

“Hmm?” He looked at her. 

“Don’t go, it’s just last time you fed and then left and-” 

He chuckled “and this time you want more? Tell me what exactly it is you want, Lilianna.” 

 “You.” She whispered

He pinned her down, his hand around her throat “Are you positive?” 

She thought for a moment, she knew she should say no but her body wanted- no her body  needed him. All she could manage was a small nod. 

His free hand moved down her chest, down her stomach and slid in her underwear, she held her breath and waited. He kissed her deeply, his fingers rubbing her clit a moment before inserting. She moaned into the kiss. 

When her breathing picked up he broke the kiss and removed his hands, moving down and removing her underwear, tossing them to the floor. She bit her bottom lip as she waited, sitting up just enough to watch him removing his own clothes. 

He kissed the bite mark, making eye contact with her as he spread her legs. She laid down and closed her eyes, gasping when she felt his tongue. 

She bit her bottom lip holding in her moans, his tongue moving in all the right ways. Her breathing got slightly heavier as she finally gave in and let out a moan. 

Her hands clung to the sheet as he continued. “Klaus-” she moaned. Her knees bent up as she tried not to cum. “Klaus, Please” she breathed. 

He pulled away, She opened her eyes just as he got on top of her and  pressed his cock against her, she wrapped her arms around him “Do it, please” she begged.

He lined up with her entrance and rammed inside her. She let out a moan as she dug her nails into his back, he gripped her throat and rammed harder. Another moan escaped her lips as he went faster, her legs wrapped around him. He went hard again. 

Moaning loudly as her head went back, she was breathing heavily and she knew she wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer. Klaus gripped tighter on her throat. “Not yet,” he growled. 

His free hand moved her hands from him, pinning them above her head as he rammed into her again. 

“Fuccck” she moaned. “I can’t-”

He pressed his lips to hers, pulling away “Not yet.” he sped up. 

Her toes curled as she felt herself about to cum, letting out a loud moan as he moved faster “Please”

He rammed into her hard again, her legs falling off him and her knees bending up as her toes curled. He continued, going harder with each move. 

He rammed into her again “Alright, cum for me.” He moved faster, she moaned loudly as she finally let herself release, panting as he continued. He rammed into her a few more times before letting himself release then rolling off her. 

“Wow.” she looked over at him and smiled “that was - I should have just let you do that the first night we met”’ 

Klaus laughed. “It was fun, and you taste delicious, I'm not just talking about your blood.” 

“Well, I would be down to do all this again. Maybe you would agree to be my real boyfriend?” 

“You have weird ways of asking things.” 

“Okay, Klaus. Will you wanna be my boyfriend?” 

“I don’t really do the dating thing, but you can be my pet and continue to call us boyfriend and girlfriend to your family.”
