Rita sat in silence for a moment with her eyes closed, as if she wanted to gather enough strength for what she was about to tell. Selene sat on the couch next to her, eyes never leaving Rita, waiting impatiently for what she was about to hear. Isabelle interested her very much, and she was sure that would certainly not learn anything from her. And Selene was eager to find out something more about Isabelle, to find out the reason why she was so quiet. There was certainly a reason, each such person usually hid some tragic story that caused them to close themselves off from the world. And the worst part was that people like Isabelle were rarely asked for details, because like a wounded animal, they shelter themselves with tall walls and usually avoid talking about what has hurt them. Well, unless the questioner was a psychologist and could ask about it in a very gentle way, but Selene wasn't skilled enough to do it. Therefore, she was waiting impatiently for Rita's words so that she co

Damon took the elevator down to the ground floor, then entered the enormous hotel lobby and approached the reception desk.- Good morning, sir.- the receptionist greeted him with a broad smile, fixing her blonde hair, pinned up in a high bun.- Hello. I'd like to check out.- Damon said with a smile as he placed the key on the front desk.- Ah... of course.- the girl replied, slightly disappointed, took the key and started doing something on the computer hidden under the counter.Damon knew how his charm worked on women, just like of any demon, but it was the first time he felt bad about it.The receptionist printed the bill and put it on the counter.- You're paying $80.- she added, trying to smile charmingly despite the sadness clearly visible in her eyes.Damon glanced briefly at the bill - everything was fine. He only used the room, didn't eat dinner or breakfast, not even used the minibar. As a demon, he did not need human food, but at times co

Selene shifted restlessly on the bed. Another nightmare broke her from sleep, but this time she fought her pursuer, but could not defeat him. After all, this dream was better than the old one, because Selene knew who was persecuting her, and thanks to recently revealed power, she didn't feel so vulnerable.Selene opened her eyes slowly and looked at the alarm clock on the bedside table - it was showing three in the morning. Selene was afraid of what destiny had in store for her, and was afraid that, despite all her skills, she would lose the fight against Alistair. She felt more terrified, however, at the fact that could die much earlier at the hand of a demon sent on her, and after all, Damon was sent up 'up' just for that - to kill her. Still, Selene knew that if his kin would take the charm off him and he would want to kill her afterwards, she wouldn't be able to defend herself against him, so would surely die. The same fate befell her predecessor - she trusted the demon, wa

The next two weeks of July passed Selene in another meetings with Damon. Alice was hiding them so well that her aunt ignored the fact that she had sensed the presence of a demon in the vicinity from time to time, after all, there had been no attack at all, so she assumed they were probably hanging around looking for opportunities for now. This time was priceless for Selene, full of boundless happiness. Still, she was aware that one day it would come to an end, and at the mere thought of a longer separation from her beloved, she shuddered with some fear. Selene was sure she wouldn't last long in such a state. For now, however, she wanted to enjoy it and take full advantage of the fact that her and Damon could get together relatively calmly.Her lessons with Rita, Meredith, Isabelle, and Johnathan were getting better and better. Selene felt she would reign over her powers quickly, and if survive until her eighteenth birthday, she would be more than powerful enough to defeat Alist

Johhan rushed to the Underworld as fast as he could. Salvadore saw him first, or actually sensed his approaching aura, they were brothers after all, and then informed the others of his brother's arrival.- Finally. I already thought that he would stay on the surface forever.- Chris sighed.- Hope he found something useful.- Marco added hopefully.At that moment Johhan entered the cave, smiling broadly.- So, how it went, brother? Do you have something interesting for us?- Salvadore asked, watching his unusual joy carefully. He knew his brother, who was usually gloomy like the undertaker.- Of course, as always.- Johhan replied, and Chris smiled dismissively at that, but he ignored it and just continued.- Damon broke the law of the demons. He fell in love with the sorceress, and on top of that with the "chosen one" he is supposed to kill. So, in total, Damon also broke another law, to strictly follow the superior's orders.- he announced.- Are you sure?-
