    Summary

    When he wakes, he is hungry.

    ---

    Elena undaggers Elijah, and as a show of trust, offers him something a bit more personal than a blood bag to replenish his strength. It was probably a bad idea for him to accept. Good thing Elena is herself.

    Summary

    Her name fell from his lips in a plea, and she wondered when the roles had reversed. She wanted to soothe him, to collect the shards of him that laid broken on the floor and piece him back together. Perhaps she was the only one who could.

    She was the one who would.

    “You promised, Elijah—you wrote it.”

    She looked up into his eyes, darker now, so dark she could see the reflection of the street lights twinkling back at her. She didn’t like the conflict she saw there, or the devastation she knew would come if Klaus succeeded in killing himself, but he had made her a promise and she meant to ensure he kept it.

    Summary

    "You can come out." Her voice is a quiet command.

    He obeys, a sharp-cut silhouette emerging from shadows illuminated only by the faded gold lamp on the wall behind him. It's strange to see him here, in this alley perfumed with the stench of humanity. He's someone who belongs in castles of old, simultaneously the white knight and the fanged Count.

    "I'd say I don't bite but... well", her lips split into a bloody smile. His eyes trace the movement. Instead of glancing away as she expects him to, he looks up and holds her dead-eyed gaze.

    "Elena."

    Her brain automatically supplies the customary response, his name burning the tip of her tongue. She forbade her lips from moving, nonverbal reply echoing around the alleyway.

    Now he looks away, her silence evidently speaking all too loud.
