Secret Succubus- a Damon OC Story

Chapter 10

3rd Person POV:

Damon got a text message from Nyssa asking him to meet her at this storage locker. It was about 20 minutes outside of Mystic Falls. He drove up and followed her directions to number 121.

He found the unit door open and a car pulled out. It was a black mercury comet, the idea of Nyssa secretly being into old cars tickled him.

He spotted her inside and let out a whistle.

"Nice ride, who's is it?"

"It's mine," she replies.

"Where did you get the dough for it, you don't strike me as the babysitter type."

Nyssa smiles at that, "no, I guess I'm not. The truth is I'm actually quite a bit smarter than I let on. I got held back on purpose. To keep my mind from turning to mush while I wait to graduate and get out of this town I've taught myself a few languages. I've managed to make some money from translating jobs online."

"So why have you parked it here, I've never seen it in your driveway before," Damon asks.

"Because no one knows I have it, it's my in case of emergency getaway car."

"And what emergency would have you skipping town?"

"None of your business," she tells him.

"Would it have something to do with why you keep hurting yourself?" Damon asks her.

Her smile drops no longer in the mood for a verbal duel with Damon, "None of your business."

Damon rolls his eyes, "one of these days I am going to figure you out."

"Well for my sake I hope its not for a very very long time," she responds.

"Why for your sake?"

"Because if you knew what I was trying to avoid you wouldn't be able to help yourself. You'd want to hurry my ruin so damn fast."

Damon acts a little hurt by this comment, "you really have that little faith in me?"

"You're a lothario vampire, I have exactly the right amount of faith in you."

Damon huffs, "fine mystery girl, how about you tell me why I'm here."

"When Greyson died I gathered up everything in his study, offices, and the lake house that might have clued Elena or Jeremy in and moved it here."

"Clued them in on vampires?" Damon asks.

"That and other things," she responds vaguely. 

"What other things?"

"Elena and Jeremy should never have to know the kind of man their father was. Learning someone with that capacity for evil is related to you... you can't ever fully come back from that," Nyssa explains.

"Sounds like your talking from experience," Damon comments. 

She shrugs, "maybe I am."

"And what exactly are these dastardly things Greyson Gilbert is supposed to have done?"

"That's not why we're here okay. I remembered last night after you told me you were looking for Emily Bennett's grimoire that I read something about it in an old Gilbert journal. I thought you might want to have a read yourself maybe there's a clue I overlooked to its' location."

Damon smiles, "ohh non-enemy you just officially got bumped up on my friends list."

"Must be a short list," Nyssa quips back.
