Romans & histoires When Does Elena Tell Damon She Loves Him

For a few seconds, both stood doing or saying nothing. “Well, good night then,” Elena said finally. “Mm,” he responded. She turned to walk away, and a few steps away, he asked, “Would you?” “What?” she asked, stopping and turning. But only slightly. Ary closed the gap slowly, his gaze, intent on her face as he did. “Would you?” he clarified. “Love it. That they come here?” They were face-to-face now. Something made her pulse race. She managed to keep her chin up, staring into his eyes, as she answered,

Selene cuddled against his chest, tracing his muscles with her finger. “I do not want this to end when Elena comes back,” she whispered. “I want you to keep fucking me even when she is home.” Damien kissed her forehead. “We will find a way.

Can’t wait to see you ❤️* Damien stared at the message, his heart began racing. Selene was still naked and covered in his cum beside him.

And suddenly all the walls disappeared completely. No billionaire. No monster. No coldness. Just a man hopelessly in love. His trembling fingers brushed softly against her cheek.

Tears streamed endlessly down her face as she held him tighter. “I love you too,” she cried desperately. “So please don’t leave me.” Damien gave the faintest smile. The softest smile she had ever seen from him.

I lower my head placing a slow, sweet kiss on her soft lips. There is truly no other place I would rather be than by her side for what remains of the rest of my life. My heart swells with so much emotion that I can hardly breathe. Before I know it four little words escape my mouth on their own. "I love you Elena." She freezes, her body stiffens, and her eyes grow twice in size. Uh oh. Was saying that too soon? My chest feels with panic.

"I-I didn’t mean—" "Get out," Damien ordered. The man stumbled to his feet, dragging his friends with him as they disappeared into the crowd. Elena's knees felt weak as the adrenaline drained from her body. She wanted to thank Damien, but the words caught in her throat. Memories surged forward—memories of heated nights, whispered promises, and the devastating betrayal that had shattered her world. Damien turned to her, his gaze burning into hers. “We need to talk.” Elena swallowed hard. “I’m working.”

“I’m thinking deep emerald green. Off the shoulder. Hair loose, natural waves. Oh, and those heels that make your legs look like they were carved by angels.” Valeria laughed, putting a hand over her face. “You’ve been waiting for this.” “For years,” Elena said without shame. “Do you have any idea how long I’ve known you were into Damien?” “I wasn’t into Damien,” Valeria said automatically. Elena gave her a look. Valeria paused. “Okay, fine. I am into Damien.” Elena squealed again. “Say it again. I need it for my soul.” “I’m into Damien.” She said it slower this time, and the truth in it sank into her chest. It felt both terrifying and exhilarating. After everything, after years of not being

Elara took a breath that burned her lungs. “And there’s something else you don’t know,” she said, voice breaking as she looked at Kai. “Something you never accounted for.” Damon raised the gun again, anger flashing now. “Enough.” Elara screamed the truth before fear could silence her. “I never loved you,” she cried. “I loved the man you pretended to be.” The words rang through the chamber. Damon froze. And in that split sec ond of shock, everything hung in the balance. Who would Damon shoot now?
