Beating Hearts

Seven

Melissa kept trying to sketch Sylvester as she was curious as to what he looked like, but known of them did him justice and threw them in the fire. Sighing, the blonde decided to see how Elena was enjoying her romance get away. A knock caught her attention than Damon walked right in. "Your going to be my date."

"Say what?" She asked,

"There is a historical society tea and Elijah is going to be there."

Melissa sighed and walked away to get changed. "Are you in any way compelling Andie?" She asked as she continued getting dressed,

"Jealous?" Melissa gave him a look as she walked in. "It's just entertaining."

"Whatever Damon." She tells him. "Let's go and get this over with."

Melissa arrived with Damon at the tea party and saw Elijah. "He's here." She tells him. Damon nodded making Melissa go to another room. She was staring at a painting when Elijah and Damon walked in. "Can I please talk to you?"

Instead of getting an answer, Elijah pushes Damon against the wall by his throat and stabs him in the throat. "Show some respect to an original." He tells him.

Melissa grabbed Elijah and pulled him away from Damon. "You need to show some respect your self, Elijah. All we want is answers and your the only person who will provide the answers. Especially mine."

Elijah looked at Melissa before walking away. "That didn't work."

Melissa scoffed as she walked away knowing she will get answers some other way.

Melissa was standing in the Salvatore house trying to think of ways to get Elijah to answer her questions. She heard Alaric and turned to see a guy that stabbed Alaric. "Leave him alone." She said.

Another grabbed her and held her tight. "Your the mate."

"Let me go." She tells them before she heard Damon. "Damon! Don't!"

Once Damon was wounded, the wolf holding Melissa tied her in a chair. "Tells us where the moonstone is."

"Like I know." She replies. "I have been searching for answers on Sylvester."

"Shut up." He said smacking Melissa.

"Leave her alone!"

Melissa glared as she looked at the wolf. She wasn't expecting to see Elijah holding the moonstone. Elijah saw his brother's mate and knew he will be pissed. The blonde watched Elijah kill the wolves making her sigh. "My brother will be angry when he sees what they have done to his mate."

"Why are you telling me this when you won't tell me nothing about him?"

"Cause it's not time for you to know." Elijah replies as he released Damon.

Melissa left as Damon answered his phone. "Elijah is planning to use Elena still." She said.

"I'll let Stefan know."

Melissa sighed as she got her clothes off. Turning on the water, the blonde prepared herself for the pain as she walked in and screamed. She never knew that Sylvester was feeling her pain.

"Don't worry brother. It's almost time for us to meet your mate."

"I hope so soon." He said. "She's in pain."
