Scandal of the Season by @lynyrdwrites
Caroline had stomped closer to him in her irritation, her hands clutching her skirts.  Klaus looked at her, a smirk slowly curving his lips. Caroline’s scowl faded, as she tried to figure out what he was plotting.
When she found herself scooped up in his  arms, her  skirts crushed by his hold, she shrieked.
“Niklaus! Put me down.”
“Never,” he purred in response. “It took me entirely too long to get you where I  wanted you.”
Caroline knew it wasn’t at all proper, for a woman to let her husband whisk her off to their bedroom in his arms in the middle of the day. But truthfully,  if she had wanted proper, she would have married Tyler Lockwood and lain meekly on her back for him, on the nights he wasn’t off with his mistress.
She much preferred her husband and  his life of sin of pleasure… even if that sin and pleasure was currently the great topic of gossip amongst the Ton.
