I stirred around in bed, freezing. I could barely move due to Damon's arm wrapped around my waist, I removed it and quietly got up. Putting my underwear and Damon's shirt on trying to keep myself warm. I looked around the room noticing the window was opened, so I walked over to shut and lock it. Staring outside to make sure no one was around. I turned around to head back to bed but big hands covered my mouth, keeping me quiet.

A phone buzzed for what seemed like the tenth time.

"Nyx. Answer it." I tried to wake her, but didn't feel her get up to answer the damn thing. The call ended, but soon went off again. "Damnit Nyx, answer..." I sat up, she wasn't in bed. My eyes scanned the room, her clothes were still laying on the chair. I got out of bed and started getting dress, but notice my shirt was missing. I ran outside to my car, I swear if Bree did something to her I'm gonna kill her. I drove back towards the bar as I put on an extra shirt that was laying in my backseat. Stopping at the water tower, I seen Nyx standing on the stairs. I parked the car and got out.

"Damon no!" She shouted at me, I was confused until a guy ran behind me. He hit the back of my leg and fell to the ground. The guy continued to beat me with a metal pipe.

I grunted out in pain. "What the hell?" He walked away giving me time to catch my breath, but he came back with a can of gasoline. The pungent liquid coated me.

"NO!" Nyx voice rings through my ears.

"Who are you?" I seethed at him.

"That's perfect. You have no idea."

"What are you talking about? What did he do?" She asked.

He stopped to look at Nyx. "He killed my girlfriend." He turned back to me and continues to pour the rest of the gasoline on me. "What did she do to you, huh? WHAT DID SHE DO TO YOU?" He leaned down to my face.

"Nothing." I mumbled, he threw the can to the side.

"I don't understand." Nyx yelled at the guy.

"My girlfriend went to visit Stefan and Damon killed her, got it?" He didn't even bother to look back at her. Realization hit her, I could see it on her face. I groaned out in pain trying to get up but Lexi's boyfriend kicked me in the face, causing me to fall back.

"Lexi? Lexi was your girlfriend? She told me about you, she said that you were human."

"I was." He paused before pulling out a lighter from his pocket. Great, this is how I'm gonna go out?

"Lexi turned you?"

"If you wanna be with someone forever you have to live forever."

"She loved you." Nyx said trying to distract him. "She said that when it's real, you can't walk away."

"We'll, that's a choice your not gonna have to make." He gritted his teeth at her, angrily.

"Don't! Don't please, don't hurt him." He flicked the lighter on.
