Running away from the past is never easy, especially when you're the reason someone is dead. After having to fight her boyfriend off on the night of a Full Moon, Raelyn Lockwood learns the painful secret of her family genes. Thankfully, her Uncle Ma...
After giving her some time to process that information, I sigh, and speak. "There is something else that you should know.." I say after a while, catching her attention. "My brother knows you are with me.." I explain. Sighing, she speaks. "That's not surprising. I mean, we both knew he'd find out eventually.." She says quietly. Hearing this, I nod. "So...what are we supposed to do now? He's not planning on chasing after us, is he? I mean, I'm just one Hybrid. Even with Tyler and I both gone, he still has 12 more back in Mystic Falls. I highly doubt he's That petty." She says. Sighing, I speak. "Not that I am aware of, no." I reply, before continuing. "As for breaking the Sire Bond, if you still wish to do this, we will have to find somewhere remote. Somewhere secluded, so that while you are transforming, we need not worry about attracting unwanted attention." I explain. Staying here in the city is dangerous.. As I think this, she speaks. "...Elijah...are you and mom sure this will work..?" She asks, worry clear on her face. "If this doesn't work...if I force myself to repeatedly go through that pain again, for nothing.." she trails off, hugging herself for comfort. "I will not lie to you...neither one of us can confirm, nor deny, that this will work, Raelyn.." I say, trailing off, before instinctively reaching out my hand towards her cheek, to comfort her.

However, the moment I realize what I was doing, I stop, my hand hovering only a few inches before her cheek. Klaus' words once again replay in my head, making me sigh in defeat, before I reluctantly retract my hand. Seeing I stopped myself from touching her, her brows furrow. Until I know for sure...I cannot allow myself to touch her.. With this thought, I speak. "But...I Can promise you that I will not leave your side.." I say quietly. Hearing this, although confused at my actions, she nods her head, a smile slowly rising onto her lips. "Alright, then...even if the chance of this working is slim.." she says, giving a hesitant nod. "I'll do it.." she says quietly. Hearing this, I nod in return. "Very well. Once we find a suitable place, we will leave." I say, before noticing her choice of clothing. The moment I see she's just in her underclothes and her top, my eyes widen slightly. This woman.. Sighing, I shake my head, averting my gaze. "You should not be out here like this.." I say, my voice becoming husky. "Says the man who didn't even bother to button up his shirt.." she says, while placing her hands to my torso.
