Damon POV
“He is there,” I mumbled to Stefan as we stand before Lils' apartment door.
“How you know?”
“Because I can smell the bastard from here,” I growled, getting ready to knock down the door,
Stefan pulled my shoulders, “Wait— the commotion might trigger the occupants to call the cops, let's teleport,”
“Alright,” I agreed, “on three... One... Two...” My brother pulled me into harmless flames, reappearing inside the apartment,
“What happened to three?” I shouted in a whisper.
“Three,” he smirked.
“You always do this and I'm getting annoyed with your damn—”
“Shh... Listen,” my brother cut me off.
“I don't hear anything,” I mumbled.
Smacking me upside the head, Stefan shot me a death glare, “With your demon ear,”
“You cause this on yourself, you should have listened to me when I told you to throw out the necklace, we could have been here, enjoying each other company, having great sex, the
Eve II POVPacing back and forth in my chamber, I clasp Hades's knife close to my chest, it has been a while since I've heard from Azrael, how hard can it be to bring me a stupid, defenseless, bastard child of Lilith II, I only hope the darkness can hold up his end of the bargain, the girl— for his freedom.“Your Majesty?” A servant spoke humbly, barely knocking on the door.“What is it!” I growled in annoyance.“It's— it's your breakfast, my queen, the chef wants to know if you rather dine inside or out... it's a lovely d—” “Outside is fine,” I snarled. Peeking through my window, it was indeed a beautiful day, the sun sat high in the sky, and the flames of Hell stood still. I smirked thinking about the underworld, heaven, and earth, they should enjoy it while they can because when I rule over the entire realm and its beings, there will be no more day breaks, only darkness.“My Queen,” another servant knocked, “I am here to cater to yo
Lilith POVSitting on the couch, the sunlight, peaked through the curtains, scorching the coldness from my body,“I told you, I don't remember how I got to the library, or why I was there, the last thing I remember was Thomas at the apartment and I— don't remember what happened after that,”I explained to the brothers who stood over me with fold arms,And I wasn't lying, I really didn't remember anything about last night, it was all blank as if someone erased it. I remembered Thomas coming over, and the next thing I knew, I was in the library, it was midnight, way past visiting hours and I don't understand how I got there. I remembered Stefan picking me up in bridal style, I recall staring into his golden eyes, that was glowing in the dark, I don't even know how I got here, in their apartment.I need to figure this out on my own, it can't be a coincidence, “I am sure I'll be fine, I am going to head back to the—”“Sit down,” they both ye
Stefan POV“No!” I cried out, covering my eyes to shield myself from Damons' attack, I was wrong, and I admit it. I knew how he felt about Eve II and I know how he feels about Lilith, and I shouldn't have interfered. Curled to the corner of the room I felt nothing, was my demise quick and painless or was I spared.Slowly I lowered my hands from my face,and before me was a cloak, a purple glowing transparent force, protecting me. Beside me stood a frightened Lilith, with her hand raised aloft, guiding the shield.“You did this?”But she didn't respond, instead, she dropped her hands, bursting into tears, “Why are you guys fighting?” she sobbed. “I should be the one losing my mind right now, don't you understand what I've been through all these years... I've been called crazy, trying to find answers— the truth,” she continued.Damon stood across the room, looking down at his hands, dishearte
Damon POVThe Devils Lare wasn't entertaining during the day time, it is at night the real fun begins, but it didn't matter to me, I just wanted to be alone.Lifting my nose into their I sniffed, recognizing a familiar scent.“What are you doing here Lilith?” I growled.“I came here to see you, Stefan is worried,” she softly said rubbing my shoulder,“I am fine Lil, I — just need to be alone right now,”“No, you need to go see your brother, he needs you as much as you need him,” she whispered as she sits on the barstool next to me.And she was right, we need to talk about what happened, I have never felt anger like that before, I have never been so upset that I attacked my brother, I need to find self-control, I thought, drinking my Bloody Mary.“It's the second time I've seen you drink that exact beverage,” Lilith broke the silence
Lilith POVI stayed behind at the Devils Lare while Damon went to mend things with his brother, I needed to process everything I was told. Damon tried to convince me that I should head back with him to the apartment, especially since so many bodies keep popping up, but I didn't want to, it was my turn wanting to be alone.I didn't have my phone with me, so he left his behind, just in case I need a ride, or— if anything happens.Shoving the phone into my pocket, something rubbed against my fingers, So I pulled it out, immediately recognizing what it was, it's my lucky coin. Perhaps it isn't fortunate as I think it is, because all I've experienced so far is bad luck. Slamming it on the table, drifting my thoughts to Mel, I missed her and I can't wait for her to come home, I've discovered something that will prove to her, I wasn't, crazy... I was crazy after all.“Max— that's your name right, give me one of them Mary d
Stefan POVStanding next to the computer desk, I watched Lilith clothing on the mug with her trembling hands,“The book store cashier was already dead when Damon found her in Thomas's apartment,” I explained,“Where is the body?” She mumbled.“We took care of it,”“How did she die?” she asked.“At first, I thought it was Thomas— especially since the body was found in his apartment, but you sent him back to Taratus—”“What is Taratus?”“It's not what— it's a where,” I mumbled.“It's a prison in Hell for creatures from the underworld, it's where the bad guys send their bad guys,” Damon explained, caressing her shoulders,“Anyway... Um, she had multi
Damon POVIs it just me, or did Lilith and Stefan grew closer in the last hour, Earlier when I came out of the shower, I felt her excitement, her desires, her cravings for sex, and not finding her not Stefan made me panic, so I went looking for them, her energy pulled me inside her apartment, only to find my brother standing in the middle of her room, looking absurd. Her scent filled the room, her orgasm— but it's probably nothing, I have been scenting her aroma all week, so I am sure I am the one overreacting,“Hey, guys since we are going to be up late, I am going to order a pizza, ok?”But they were too deep into their conversation, they didn't hear me“Guys!” I yelled,“Hey... I am sorry,” Lilith walked over to me cupping my cheeks, “We are trying to come up with a plan to protect Mel and William, and Stefan is convinced that we are overlooking something, but pi
Lilith POVStanding a few feet from the door, I watched as Damon conversed with the delivery guy, he was just as confused as we are, but a question has been burning in my chest since last night,How did she know?How did she know who to possess and when? Someone is feeding her information I just have to figure out who, and my list of suspects are empty.“Is he ok?” I questioned as Damon closed the door behind him,“Yea— he doesn't remember much but, he'll be fine, tried to convince him that he came here drunk, but he doesn't do alcohol,” he explained.“And I still don't understand why we gave him a tip, not only did he ruined our pizza, and he also forgot the cokes,” Stefan swaggered in, grumbling.“I don't know Stefan let's talk about last night, shall we... he was possessed by Eve, a wrath demon, and I can bet he
