Damon POV

"NO, NO, NO", I heard someone's voice say, it sounded familiar but I couldn't recognize anything at this point. My mind was groggy I felt drained my heartbeat was slowing down. I could feel my blood being sucked out of me but I couldn't move I was numb. I felt helpless something I never wanted to feel.

"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE", the voice roared.

I heard faint footsteps coming towards us but my sight was blurry I could barely make out anything.

"Isabella sweetheart you've had enough let him go." The voice had gone softer and gentle as if they were talking to a child and not a vampire who was latched on to my neck.

I felt Isabella sink her teeth even further and I grunted from the pain. Her head thrashed from side to side ripping my neck further apart. I couldn't take the pain anymore I was fading away. If she kept drinking she would drain me in less than a minute.

"Let him go baby, your killing him", I felt her grip on me loosen up a little bit. The voice had sounded closer now as if they were in front of me. I opened and closed my eyes trying to regain focus and it helped a little, I could see the man was standing behind Isabella with his hands on her shoulders but I couldn't really see his face with the angle my head was in.

"What the Hell is going on here?" Stefan, that was Stefan's voice. I had never been so grateful to hear his annoying ass voice. Saint Stefan was here to the rescue like always.

"Don't come closer." The man behind Isabella warned.

"Do something then she's about to kill him" Stefan yelled.

"If I pull her away she'll tear his head off is that what you want", the man growled out.

Let her tear me apart I thought I have nothing to live for I had nothing left in this cruel world for me. At least I would die at the hands of such a beautiful creature.

As if hearing my thoughts she let me go, I felt her lips moving away and then my body falling to the ground with a thud. I was to weak to hold myself up so I just laid there.

This must be how the humans felt when we fed on them, I felt a little pity for them but not enough to make me want to change my feeding style.

I felt hands on me lifting me up.
"You almost killed him" Stefan spat out, "You told Elena you would protect those she cared for and look what you've done. Your just as bad as the Mickelson's".

Bella POV

Blood, blood, blood. That's all I could think about in the moment. Damon's blood had been so sweet it tasted so good I wanted more.

I Was still thirsty, I could feel the burn at the back of my throat, It hadn't been satisfied. I looked over at him, his body was limp against Stefan's arm.

I didn't feel bad for draining him he deserved it for trying to kill me. I looked over at Stefan and looked him straight in the eyes and said,

"I'm worse than the Mickelson's, I go through with my threats unlike them I finish the job." His eyes widened, "Your brother crossed me and he had to face the consequences of his actions"

"The deals off Stefan, consider me your enemy", I stepped close enough to him to whisper "And Stefan If I go down you all go down with me", With that me and Eric walked away leaving a stunned Stefan holding Damon.

Damon POV

I woke up in my bed I felt like I just ran a marathon, my throat felt dry I needed something to drink. I tried getting up, ugh fuck my whole body felt like it was covered in cement it felt heavy. I groaned.

"Don't even bother getting up," I heard Stefan say. I followed the sound of his voice, he was sitting across the room with a book in his hand. He got up and reached down to a small cooler he had beside the chair and pulled out two blood bags and walked toward me.

"How long have I been out", I asked.

"Three days" he responded. What the fuck three days it didn't feel like three day it felt like I was only out for a couple hours.

"Why did you do it Damon, you put all of us at risk now besides the Mickelson family we have the Swan family to add to our enemy list," he said handing me the blood bags.

I didn't bother answering I just dove into the blood bags finishing them in less than a minute. I immediately felt better, I felt refreshed.

"Everyone is downstairs where having a meeting to discuss what to do", he said and walked out. I got up and went into the bathroom to shower.

After my shower I changed and went downstairs they were all gathered around the living room, Bonnie on the floor in the middle with her grimoire she was probably searching for more information on Isabella.

I headed toward my bar and poured myself some bourbon, taking the glass I went to go sit beside Elena so she was in between me and Stefan. Bonnie was the first to speak up while looking at her grimoire,

"Isabella will be here in a few minutes Damon and we don't want you doing anything to jeopardize her giving us a second chance, We don't want her to hurt anyone", she said. I ignored her and looked at Stefan questioning.

"Elena called her and told her how sorry we were and how it won't happen again", he said shrugging. Just as I was about to say something witty I heard a car pull up to the driveway and rushed to the door.

"Damon" I heard Stefan warn but I ignored him opening the door and there she was, Isabella. She looked beautiful, she was wearing a short black skirt with a tan off shoulder top and black heels.

"Well hello there beautiful came to see how I was doing, you just can't stay away can you", I said wiggling my eyebrows at her. She rolled her eyes looking at me.

"Don't make me laugh", she said walking past me.

Bella POV

I walked towards the living room with Damon close behind me. They were all there ugh great! I would have to deal with all of these airheads without a brain. When Elena saw me she quickly jumped up and ran towards me. I raised my hand up towards her stopping her from getting closer to me, I didn't want to be touched by anyone today I wasn't in the mood.

"Your finally here" she smiled, I could feel everyone's gaze on us but I kept mine on Elena. "Come sit down with me" She said walking toward the couch and sitting down on it. When she saw I didn't move she patted the sit next to her. I sat down next to her crossing my legs and looked up at everyone, I could see the curiosity and worry in there eyes.

"It's the blood that's why she feels connected to me", I said annoyed.
"Now let's get on with it what do you guys want to discuss?"

"We wanted to apologize for the incident with Damon", Stefan said I heard Damon scoff and looked over at him. Our eyes stayed locked until I looked away to look at Stefan.

"We wanted to know if we could keep the deal going...", He continued. I stayed quiet just staring at him I could tell it was making him uncomfortable.

"The rules have changed", I said bored. "I will only protect the humans and the witch", I motioned toward Boonie. "The vampires can take care of themselves, and so can the werewolf". I felt Elena tense up beside me she was going to object. I looked towards her with a raised eyebrow, she immediately relaxed and nodded her head.

"Do we all agree"? I said they looked at each other but blondie spoke up,

"What if we get captured and tortured, your not going to help us?"

"You've managed to survive this far without me why would I protect you".

"Can I ask you something" I looked at the small witch she had stayed quiet all this time. I liked her. She reminded me so much of her grandma, so fierce and full of fire. I nodded looking her in the eyes.

"Who awoke you"?

Dun Dun Dun Dun I'll leave it there next chapter will have more information on Isabella she will tell them her story. That picture is Bella's outfit.
