Madeline Sage Saltzman, a vampire hunter and adoptive daughter of Alaric Saltzman, did not know what was in store for her when she entered Mystic Falls. Each passing day meant more potential dangers emerging. How will she handle it when she falls in...
Journaling whatever emotions impacted his life was a routine for Stefan Salvatore. At first, when he first returned to Mystic Falls, all he could write about was Elena and how she was identical to Katherine. Without reluctance, he would compare their traits.
However, as he spent more time in the messed-up town, he found himself writing about someone completely different from Elena Gilbert.

Powerful and adorned with elegance, she was a storm that would not hesitate to ensue.

He would die before confessing he actually cared about his baby brother.
Plucking away the journal, Stefan declared, "None of your business." Damon scoffed as Stefan returned to his desk, closing his journal to continue writing another time. Needing advice, Stefan meddled with his pen and added, "It's not official... Yet."
