022. NOTHING BREAKS LIKE A HEART

Chapter twenty two

"Nothing breaks like a heart."

The next morning, Beatrix and her family woke up to find out that the mayor was killed last night during the fire, as Beatrix's grandmother scoffed as they walked up to the house "wolves. That device had the capability to take all of us out except for the witch who created the device." she shared, as Beatrix's mother sighed "mother, he's dead. Show some respect." she told her, as Beatrix's grandmother scoffed "respect? They're wolves dear, most of them hate all of us even if we could help them, it's in their nature. Plus that Lockwood boy got into that accident last night, where he's lucky that Caroline Forbes lived or he'd be on the way to chaining himself up at night and turning into a giant wolf." she shared.

As the three walked up the steps "the Black family." Tyler told them, as the three looked at him "Tyler, we're so sorry about your father." Beatrix told him, hugging him, Tyler hugged her back "thanks, Beatrix." he told her "if there's anything we can do for you and your mother at this time." Beatrix's mother shared, as Tyler nodded "we'll let you know. Thanks." he told her, as Beatrix and her family stepped inside, and as they turned walking to the left, someone whistled "wow, the Black family, you all look, amazing." Mason Lockwood said.

Beatrix's mother raised her brows "Mason, never expected you back in town, cause from what I recall from last time I saw you was our senior year where you decided to break up with me by saying, Cass, it's not you, it's me, I just can't have a girl holding me down when I'm looking for a new scenery." she shared, as Mason sighed "still upset about that, huh?" he asked, looking to Beatrix "but you, you've grown up since the last time I saw you." he shared, as Beatrix's mother furrowed her brows "what? You going for the younger model now?" she asked, as Mason chuckled "maybe." he told them, as Beatrix raised her brows "well, he isn't bad looking." she shared.

As her mother gasped and hit her in the side, as Beatrix's grandmother smirked "what can I say? Girls like us are always known to go for the older guys." she shared, as Mason chuckled "I'm sure. Wow, you three are a whole lot more fun than I remember. I'm gonna go make the rounds, but we're definitely gonna have to talk more." he shared, as he stepped forward, kissing Beatrix's grandmother on the cheek, followed by Beatrix and then her mother "yes." Beatrix's mother told him, as Mason walked off.

Beatrix's grandmother smirked "well he must've broken his curse, he's a whole lot less angry then those who haven't." she shared, as she began walking off, Beatrix's mother scoffed "that's because he knows that he left the best thing he ever had behind." she shared, as Beatrix grimaced "yeah, no, I'm not entertaining any of this." she told them, following after them, not knowing Damon was watching her.

Not that long after, Beatrix and her family were standing in the dining room, Matt walked up to them "hey, guys." he told them, as the three looked to him "Matt, we heard about Caroline, is she doing better?" Beatrix asked him, not noticing Stefan behind her with Elena "she is. Thanks for asking." Matt told her, as he stepped around her and walked off, Beatrix's grandmother scoffed "such a bore." she said, as Beatrix chuckled, her mother rolled her eyes, but then noticed Stefan and Elena although Elena looked a bit strange as she furrowed her brows "you two just gonna stand there and eavesdrop or you gonna come and say hello?" she asked, as Beatrix and her grandmother turned around seeing them.

Elena went to step forward as Stefan grabbed her arm "we're good." he told them, as Beatrix's grandmother furrowed her brows "Damon's here, Beatrix is ignoring him." she shared, as Beatrix scoffed "I'm not ignoring him. I just told him the truth and keeping my distance." she told them, smiling, as she turned around walking off, her mom and grandmother followed her, Katherine who was pretending to be Elena pulled her arm out of his hold "rude." she told him, as she walked forward "Winnifred knows who you are, if you got too close, she would've found you out and put the other two on guard." Stefan shared.
