To kill a monster (Elijah Mikaelson)

Chapter 20

Louise stood facing the wall of Sasha's tomb. A table in front of her filled with jars and jars of witch ingredients, enough for 1 million spells.

Sasha's body lay in her coffin a few feet away from her. "Come on" she said as she crushed sage and sprinkled it into a concoction. She had her way of what she wanted to achieve, but it might take at least a week, and she didn't really want to wait that long. She was trying to find little loopholes and other ways.

She shut her eyes and begun a binding spell "phasmatos..." She begun but instantly stopped when she felt the presence of someone in the archway behind her. "Elijah - a-are you okay?" She stuttered

"I'm not sure" he said, walking over the tables and examining the jars that were piled high. He picked up one that caught his eye, he flashed a look to Louise to explain

"Dead butterflies are very useful" she shrugged

"Yes but these... Black, butterflies are very rare and I'm not sure where you could get so many" Elijah said

"I know a guy" she said, continuing to crush a other herb down. "Anyway, what is the matter with you?"

"It seems someone close to me is keeping a very big secret; I just don't know why they haven't told me. Especially when it involves me" he said vaguely

"Have they hurt you? Who is it? Marcel? Rebekah?" She asked defensively, as if she were about to put them in their place

"no it's none of them" he said, glancing up at her as if to say I know your secret

Louise widened her eyes and turned around quickly, maybe if she continued to look busy he would leave her alone for another few days. Sweat dripped from her forehead as she tried to conceal her fast heartbeat.

"Why didn't you tell me you were alive Sasha?" Elijah asked like a hurt puppy.

Sasha, in Louise's body turned around with her eyebrows knitted together in a sympathetic look. "I didn't mean to keep it from you" she tried to explain "I just couldn't find the right words at the right time, and if I could get my body healed and ready for me to jump back in then I thought that would've been amazing"

Elijah looked at her. He wasn't hurt or angry or anything bad. She was alive and she was herself- well not physically but mentally.

"I'm sorry Elijah" she said "I really am"

She was cut off as Elijah lunges himself forward and grabbed the back of her neck, forcing his mouth to hers. Sasha tensed up at the beginning but then relaxed as her hands leant on his chest.

"I'm not hurt" Elijah said breathlessly, between little breaks of their kiss. He broke off and then started to plant little individual ones around her mouth, chin, neck. Just showing how much he actually cared for her.

Sasha looked at Elijah and he looked back trying to believe that it was her.

"I am so sorry for what I have done to you, if it weren't for me then you wouldn't be in this position" he said

"And I also wouldn't have been free from Daniel" she said positively, making light out of the situation "he's dead Elijah, I'm free to do whatever I want, free to be with whoever I want"

The corner of Elijah's lips tugged until he was smiling at her. He could imagine what Rebekah would say Elijah finally brings a girl home. Though he dreaded the awkward meeting of Niklaus and obviously sooner or later his parents would make a visit from the land of the dead.

"How far have you gotten?" Elijah broke his gaze, realising that he wasn't staring into Sasha's eyes but Louise's. He felt bad for Louise, being kicked out of her body temporarily.

"Well if I put this spell into place now it would take a week and if I don't have to reveal myself to you, then I can wait" she smiled. She walked over to her body and forced some green ish liquid down her throat. And then she drank some herself. "Done" she smiled

Elijah still felt overwhelmed that she was actually alive after being lead to believe he had killed her. "I stabbed you" he said breaking his silence again "I held your body in my hands as you burnt from the inside," he said

"You did what I wanted you to do" she said, her hands finding their way to his flushed cheeks and she tiptoed to reach his mouth "everything went according to no humanity me" she smiled, biting his lip in the process.

Elijah kissed her again, he couldn't get enough, though she was Louise, he knew it was really Sasha that was kissing him back.

He managed to push her up against the wall, tugging on the very loose fitting shirt, trying to get it undone.

"ah, umm" she said, breaking away and tensing up

Elijah looked up "is it going too fast?" He asked, his hair disheveled and his panting body made her want him more, he was always so clean and tidy, and she knew that if they carried on she would see the complete opposite

"Not for me" she shook her head, laughing at the thought "but I'm pretty sure that Louise is still a Virgin"

Elijah stepped back, slightly embarrassed by his mistake "it would be best to keep it that way" he let out a bubble of laughter, but he didn't care about the sex anyway. He had her.

And now all they had to do was wait for her body to wake up.
