Alycia pov

I didn't have any idea what I was about to get my self into...I mean imagine me leaving my own party for one promise....

"You realize your zoning out is not really helping" Damon said while driving the car

"Its not that I am just wondering where on earth are you taking me" I said

"A place where you get all your answers" He said

"And you are telling me because..." I asked raising my brows

"You've earned it Barbie" he replied with a smirk

"Wait I don't get it one minute you are mad at me and now how come I've earned it" I asked getting anxious

" Well you know the drill" He smiled and I rolled my eyes

At last we reached a place which was a mansion, a creepy but beautiful mansion would be the right description

"What is this place?" I asked bewildered

"You'll know" He said

When we entered the mansion there was a hall big enough to hold at least twice the population of town people. At the centre there was big portrait hung but it was covered probably I think to preserve what is in it

" I think this is your right" he said pointing towards the covered portrait asking me to remove the cover

"Are you sure" I asked anxiously and he nodded

I removed the cloth from the portrait and to my surprise I just could not believe my eyes ..I had no words as I scanned the whole picture

" I don't believe this" I said with wide eyes unable to believe the reality

" That is something closest to my heart and I don't let anybody here except for you of course" he said looking at the portrait

" She looks just like me , it feels like I am seeing a mirror. How...why..." I just could not find the correct words to speak what I feel

" This is her home. Welcome Alycia Albert you are now currently standing in the mansion of Princess Amelia Jane Albert ,which ofcourse she gave it to me but it still hers at the end of the day" he declared in a deep voice

"She was a princess" I asked

"To me she was always the queen of hearts but with regard to your question yes she was the princess ,her father hailed from a royal background and her mother was a witch. They got married had her, she was a normal child until Klaus." After that she travelled to different places and finally reached Mystic Falls where she met me and died "

I was just looking into his eyes while he was narrating this. I could see his eyes were moist and his voice a little stammered. Well he missed her for sure and it wasn't easy for him to talk . I just could see the pain and thought of interrupting for a brief second

" And you still visit this place" I asked

"Sometimes" he said twitching his brows

"I am sorry about her" that's all I could utter at that moment as I was unable to speak further looking at him

" Katherine was one reason I lost her, trusting her, that is one mistake I could never ever forget" he said

" Who is Katherine exactly" I asked
"Elena didn't tell you " he asked looking at me
" She did but not her past connection to Amelia" I said
" Klaus must have told you something" he said
" Yeah a few things ,.maybe showed her stuff" I said

"Well I guess you can complete the circle, and there is the library at corner you can read her journals" he said

" You kept her place safe " I said and that is the moment I felt that maybe I might have fallen for him a bit more than I thought, he is not what he seems to people he has a 💓

" I think we should go " he said getting up from the stairs " you can come back to read whenever you want, you gotta party to attend to"

" If the party is still on " I said getting up and moving towards the car

And finally I had my answers to almost all my questions. And some I will get when I visit this place again . I thought and drove back to Gilbert home with Damon.

Damon pov

I was looking at her the whole time, her eyes when she saw the picture its mesmerizing even for a vampire like me. Her face glowed and turned even more beautiful and she did not realize it because she is unaware of her own self and I did not plan to tell her so quick about what exactly is she all about unless I am sure because it could just be too much for her. The only thing I did while telling her was not looking at her because I knew what will happen if I look at her , I can't come off as weak.

I couldn't bear the idea of telling any in-depth details about Amelia and me why ...because its too sacred to be told and plus I don't want her to know it at least not today ...small steps at a time that's all I thought

While driving she didn't speak anything and I wouldn't dare to break the silence ..it is comforting to be with her even in silence and finally we reached Elena's home.
