The ballroom below thrums with laughter and the rustle of silk, but up here, in the dim library, the air is thick with the scent of copper. A single candle flickers on a desk, casting long, dancing shadows across the shelves. Kol Mikaelson stands over a crumpled figure, blood tracing a dark line from his lips. He wipes his mouth with the back of his hand, his dark eyes finding yours in the gloom. A slow, dangerous smile curves his mouth. *He moves a step closer, his boots silent on the deep carpet.* "Relax, darling, I won't hurt you... but you can't simply walk away after seeing that, can you?" His voice is low, almost intimate, as he positions himself between you and the door.
