I know Nothing ( Book One of the Secret Series

The Genevieve's and Elliott's Family History

Chapter 8

Walking into Damon's home felt weird. I felt like I did'nt belong. It was dark and the smell of red roses hit me like a rainstorm. He had a beautiful house. The front door was wooden and the floor was a mixed black and white marble tile. He had windows that started from the bottom of the floor that went to the top of the ceiling. And the ceiling. My goodness, it was beautiful as well. It had a white boader and a shiny white finnish. As for the rest of his house it was amazing. He had all sorts of stuff. It looked as though he collected it for many years.

I followed him through the living room and then a tiny hallway. And then we were there. In the library.

"So are you ready to hear about our family history and this towns?", Damon said in a cautious voice. "The town? I thought it was just going to be about our family history.", Elena said in a quick voice. "Well in order for you to understand what I am about to tell you, you have to know about Greenville Falls background.In Greenville Falls there are things, people, that are different from everyone else. They are called the Guardians.They are the people who kill the demons or what I am.",Damon said in a careful voice. "What are you?", asked Elena curiously. "These Guardians hunt us down, weaken us with a herb called Primrose, and then kill us. They drive a wooden stake throuh our heart. They are dangerous Elena and tell their children to stay away from my kind.", Damon said ignoring Elena's question. "My mother and father, they tell me to stay away from you. Are they these people you call the Guardians?" ,asked Elena." Yes your mother and father are these people. And soon you will become one. The Guardians only occur in the Genevive family branch. They want to kill me Elena. So it is important you don't tell them what I am telling you now. Okay?", Damon said seriously. "I promiss. And I would'nt kill you Damon.", Elena said. "Why do my parents want to kill you?", Elena continued. "Because of what I am.", Damon said. "What are you? I mean just tell me.", Elena replyed. "I can't. My kind can't tell a Normal,or in other words,humans what my kind is.", Damon said. "Damon, if my parents are Guardians does that mean I am one too?", Elena asked curiously. "I was afraid you would figure that out. Elena, I can't answer that for you. You are the one to figure that out on your own. And what I am.", Damon said with no hesitation. " Why can't you tell ---", but before Elena could finnish her sentence she saw her.

She was beautiful. Maybe the most prettiest blonde Elena had ever seen. She was fair size and looked as though she was 5'11. Her skin was a flawless pale color with no imperfections. Then Elena saw it. She had those light blue eyes Damon had before they changed.

"Well, well Damon. You brought a snack?", the beautiful blonde had said. Then it clicked in Elena's head. This was the girl that was sitting at the same lunch table as Damon. This could'nt be what she thought could it? Was this beautiful blonde woman Damon's sister? " Now, now Makenzie. This here is Elena Genevieve." Right as Damon said this Makenzie gasped in asstonishment. "Get out now! There will never be a Genevieve in this house! Do you understand? Our race will never be friends with Guardians!", Makenzie said this powerfully. Almost as if she had no feelings toward Elena. "Okay... well um... Damon---", Elena said fast. "No Elena you will stay! Makenzie will be the one to be leaving.", Damon said all while looking at Makenzie. And then Damon got up from where him and Elena were sitting and followed Makenzie into the kitchen.

"A Genevieve will never be welcome in my home, Damon. I will not stand for it. And if The Counsel finds out that she is a Guardian following in her parents footsteps we will all be dead!", Makenzie shouted at Damon. " Listen. I do not believe she is a Guardian. She would be able to tell me apart from everyone else. And she has shown not a sign yet of it.", Damon said. "Well, how do you---", Makenzie said getting cutt off by Elena slaming the door.

Elena left Damon's house knowing she was unwelcomed.

Later that night, Elena thought about all that Damon had told her. There where three things Elena knew for sure. First was that Greenville Falls had alot of background history. Second was that Elena's parents were Guardians and she might be one too. And third, Elena was starting to fall in love with Damon even though he could not tell her what he was.

But then she started thinking...

He never goes out in the sunlight. His eyes change colors from light blue to green. He does'nt eat or drink anything. And Primrose weakens him. These people called Guardians hunt his kind down and then kills them with a wooden staek.

There was only one thing he could be..........
