Summary
Five rivers, black and unending, swirled and meandered down his realm with a howling ferocity that made even the dead and forgotten halt their endless wandering, breathe the sulphur of his lands into unexpandable lungs and relive past slivers of a distant bygone life reflected in it’s thrashing waters, moments of life lifted on one cresting wave and submerged under the next, and then: continue being lost.
The Land of the Dead they called his Kingdom; Death, infinite and final, cloaked his sunless empire from it’s eternal winter, and yet—
He disagrees.
Truly if it was the impenetrable realm of the dead, then explain to him this:
Why does one such as her— light given golden ichor and godly flesh, one with the warmest sunlight woven into her hair and the pink of sunset skies colouring her cheeks; this women with a smile more devastating than every horror his tartarus could possibly conjure, why does she with her tender bloodstained hands, hold him by his cheek, press her forehead to his, with breath a tickle against his lips and whisper this:
You are my home.

Summary
In these moments the pesky little inquiries do not clamor so much in his head. Like how it is that she can look at him like this, but she is still not his queen.
Nowadays Klaus is perpetually frustrated at Caroline's cryptic attitude when it comes to him. The little Fae’s ensconced herself so cozily in his life, coming and going as she pleases, initiating physical contact whenever she wants with such an aggravating yet sweet sense of entitlement as if she owns him.
Only that... she does not own him. At least not in ways that Klaus would like. She takes his affection, his trust, the warmth in his heart and the hum in his bones, and she reciprocates accordingly.
But they both know that Klaus would plea to give her more. If only she accepts.In other words, Klaus has tried to make Caroline his for decades, but apparently Caroline has her own plan.
