"Thank you that will be all" Katherine kindly said to the driver who had transported her  to the little town of Mystic Falls,  where all was perfect. Ordinary. She made her way out of the carriage slowly carefully, holding her dress on the way down making sure that she looked presentable. Her dress clear white  with a beige colored mini jacket attached to it with a gold center. Katherine always looked perfect with her olive  skin which could be mistaken for a holiday tan. Gorgeous chocolate brown hair pinned up by the white hat which was carefully resting on her head.  She looked around and for the first time ever she was impressed by her surroundings. The beautiful garden which clearly was well looked after would look perfect at night, with the fountain shimmering in the moonlight. It made her speechless. Speechless to the point where her mouth was wide open in awe.  Looking up at the house in front of her she was distracted by a charming young man who was stood almost watching her in admiration whilst standing at the door step.

Who was this gorgeous man watching her and was this his house? Katherine tilted her head looking this perfect man up and down with wide and almost flirty eyes. He was probably about late teens too early 20's. With his white shirt which fitted him perfectly. Complimented by a light brown blazer and a ocean blue bow tie. The weird thing about this was that his mannerisms was almost perfect. How he waited patiently for her to get out of the carriage and analyse her surroundings. Almost instantly the mysterious man made his way down to her, skipping as if he was meeting an old friend for the first time. Her heart beat increasing as he stood in front of her she waited for him too say something to her. Anything.

"You must be Miss Pierce." This mans voice was soft and gentle. With a soothing tone to it. He slightly bowed to her whilst saying these words

"Please. Call me Katherine" The brunette held her hand out too him with a wide smile as she bowed slowly but in a way that would make him want more. This was her usual trick but not to somebody who actually grabbed her attention like this man did. He seemed different in a way that intrigued her.

"Please, let me help you with your bags Katherine i am Stefan Salvatore" He smiled as he helped one of the maids bring the majority of her luggage to the guest room. Smiling he sheepishly walked out of her room not wanting to evade her privacy as they had only met. Before being able to completely walk out of the room he felt a soft hand grab hold of his arm slightly pulling him back inside of the room

"Oh you can't leave me all alone now Stefan. Emily will unpack for me. Why don't you show me the other people who live in this house. Maybe your brother i have heard your father talk about?" Katherine looked at him smiling with her doe eyes which was almost impossible to say no to. Truth be told she wanted to know everything about this mans life. Meet his family, get to know him before she truly decided whether she liked him. Deep down or whether it was just another guy she would toy around with till she got bored. "I will get out of this old thing and wear something much nicer. Why don't you both meet me in the garden where i can truly say hello to you both"

Stefan was taken aback at how much she wanted to get to know him. Usually when his father had allowed women too live there for a while, they would simply ignore him and go for his brother Damon. It was simply for his charming looks and kind way about him. He would do anything for the people he loved, especially for Stefan. The countless of times that he took a beating from his father Giuseppe, because of something Stefan would do. Of course Damon being Damon could not let his poor little brother get viciously hurt because of something innocent. But it wasn't just Stefan he defended it was any one else in the family. He could still remember the time when his father did something evil only a few years previously when Damon was 12 years old.

*************
TWELVE YEARS PREVIOUSLY
*************

The Salvatore Family was sat eating dinner as a family. Something that their father forced them to do every week. It was almost like a Sunday ritual they was forced to follow. Damon was usually the first to finish as he didn't like being around his father. He was controlling and horrid to everyone if something did not go his way. The 12 year old boy, Damon obviously did not want to be a part of that. Unfortunately for him he was the oldest son so he got all the beatings, all the arguments brought too him. Sighing, he looked up sheepishly at his father gulping slightly, contemplating whether he should speak up. Gathering the courage Damon looked down at the table "I've finished, may i be excused?

With a smug grin planted on his face Giuseppe looked his cowardly son as he chuckled "In a moment" Whilst taking a cigar from his box he analysed the two boys behavior whilst Lilly, their mother was out of the room. "So boys i found quite a bit of money missing from office. You two wouldn't know anything about that would you?"

The two frightened boys shook their heads slightly shaking and looking around. They didn't know anything about this but their father was getting awfully mad so someone had too own up to it before they both got a beating. Damon looked at Stefan nodding at him with a reassuring face.

"I will ask you again. Who took it?!" This time his face growing redder with anger each moment these boys was wasting his time. "It didn't just grow legs and walk off now did it? Tell me"

"Father... i took it" Damon falsely responded with a look of shear terror on his face knowing what would happen. He lied so Stefan wouldn't get a beating for this. The poor boy was only four years old.

"I didn't raise you to be a thief. But i also did not raise you to be a liar and you have told the truth today my son. Have you learned your lesson?" Giuseppe replied with a stern look on his face which suggested he would not let his son get of this easily. This was not the end of this and Damon knew it. He was right. Forcefully grabbing hold of his sons hands he lifted the cigar from his dry cold lips whilst not breaking eye contact with his now petrified son. "This is to make sure you remember it" This was almost as if Satan himself had taken over his fathers body to punish him for his sins. Instantly he pressed his burning hot cigar onto Damon's ivory skin.

END OF FLASHBACK

Stefan looked up sighing trying too get this image from out of his head. His brother was one of the kindest people he knew and now Katherine was about to meet him. He couldn't help but feel disappointment, hoping even though they had only just met each other that Katherine would choose him because he felt intrigued by this woman more than any other girl he had met. The way the sunlight made her eyes glisten was just perfect. Her smile was contagious for sure. He felt himself getting used to her presence only after such a short time knowing this... this goddess. "I will see you in a few moments Katherine." Stefan smiled and made his way to the garden where he saw his brother wearing the war attire he had recently gotten. Ready to fight for Southern America.

"Stefan! Come too see me off before i go on my way?" Damon walked over to his younger brother with the widest smile planted onto his perfect face. As he smiled and brought Stefan in for a hug he pulled away and looked back up to the house where he saw the prettiest girl he'd ever seen stood right at the back doorstep with Emily, the handmaiden for the woman who was to be staying with them. Surely this stunning girl stood watching them couldn't be her.

"Oh so this is the Damon Salvatore i have heard so much about! It is a pleasure to finally meet you. Katherine said with a warm smile as she made her way down the steps slowly and carefully whilst tilting her head and looking at Damon.

"The Pleasure is all mine Miss Katherine. It is a shame i am on the day of your arrival. Please forgive me" Damon took his hat off and shyly smiled at this olive skinned princess who was stood quite closely now.

"Well we can get too know each other better when you get back. But for now i will look forward to Stefan keeping me entertained" They both smiled. Katherine smiled quite smugly knowing she had them where she wanted them. Both worshiping her every move. This was going to be fun Katherine thought to herself whilst watching Damon leave. Laughing she played a game with Stefan. None of them knew what she was capable of. But they would soon find out....
