WARNINGS: Blood Consumption; Self Mutilation

Elion sat up on the table. He panted as a hunger rested in his gut.


"You must be hungry, father," Atlas said, grabbing a nearby cup.


He cut into his hand, making Elion's eyes shift to him. He bled inside of the cup and handed it over.


Elion grabbed the cup with shaky hands and lifted it to his lips. He drank the blood greedily, enjoying the satisfaction it gave him.


After he finished, he set it down.


"Elion," Bonnie said, stepping closer cautiously.


He lifted his eyes to Bonnie.


"Hi, Bonnie," Elion smiled.


She grinned and pulled him into a hug.


"I missed you so much," Bonnie said, fighting back tears, "And I'm sorry I couldn't save you."


"Sweetheart, that's not your fault. I was never meant to be saved," Elion reassured, pulling back to see her face, "Don't ever blame yourself for that. Okay?"


"Okay," Bonnie smiled, her lips still trembling.


Elion turned back to Atlas. He lowered his head as a show of submission.


"As my sire, it is an honor to finally meet you in person."


"I'm not some kind of tyrant, kid. I'm your father," Elion corrected, lifting his chin, "And you are my son. So pick your head up."


Atlas gave a short nod.


"It's good to finally meet you, father. I've always heard so much about you," Atlas said, "I've studied numerous lessons about your works."


"Atlas, was studying your choice, or was it mandatory," Elion asked.


"Most of it was mandatory, but I learned a lot in the spirit realm," Atlas said.


"Oh. Emily didn't make you do this, did she," Elion asked.


"No, sir."


"Please just call me Father, Dad, or Elion. E works too. You don't have to call me Sir," Elion smiled.


Bonnie cleared her throat, realizing they had a lot to discuss.


"I should go and let you two talk," Bonnie said.


"Bonnie, is Damon okay," Elion asked.
