A Dangerous Desire- Elijah x OC

Lavender & Honey

a/n: sorry it's a short one

Vee POV:

Did I really just ask Elijah Mikaelson to kiss me? Seriously? But before I have a chance to stew in my embarrassment I see him tilt his head down to mine, oh my god, this is really happening.

But at the last moment he ducks his head to the side, I think he is about to give me the platonic kiss on the cheek and just seal the rejection in a pretty bow but he actually goes lower and kisses me on my neck.

Dear God that was hot!

He runs his nose up the column of my neck to my ear before lightly nipping it and giving it a little tug, I swear I think I could come right here just from a few more of those tugs.

He starts to whisper in my ear and it takes a moment for me to break myself out of my lust haze and tune in enough to hear him...

"I want to kiss you, I want to properly press my lips to yours, breakthrough your mouth with my tongue and let it dance with yours... but not now, not while you are mourning what could have been between you and Mr. Lockwood... but I promise the moment you are ready to truly move on I will kiss you like you have never been kissed before." He finishes by giving me a kiss on the forehead and then puts his arms under my legs and picks me up, he flashes us to my house and gently sets me down on the ground.

"Good night, Victoria, may you have the most pleasant of dreams."

I close my eyes trying to steady myself and think of something decent to say but when I open my eyes again he is gone.

3rd Person POV:

The next day...

Matt, Vee and Honey were all sitting in front of the couch on the floor. Vee has updated Matt on Mason's letter and check.

"How much?" Matt asks

"$427,900"

"Damn,"

"Yup," Vee responds

"You know you're not gonna be alone in this right, I'm gonna be here, I promise," Matt tells his sister.

"No, this is not your responsibility, Matt. We are going to take this money and put $50,000 aside for your college, another $50,000 for the baby's future college fund and the rest I am going to use to start a business, so I can always take care of us. I am scared out of my mind and I feel like any little thing is going to make me burst into tears but fear is natural it's okay I'm not Mom. I am not going to bail when things get tough. None of this is going to fall on you. My future is not yours, yours is still whatever you want it to be, okay?"

Matt nods and embraces Vee in a hug, "Well, no matter what you're not gonna stop me from being the best damn uncle this kid could have."

"Wouldn't dream of it."

"So what business are you thinking of starting."

"I want to open a little bakery in town, I thought maybe I could talk to Elena about renting her Dad's old place, it's just been sitting there empty for close to 2 years now."

"Sounds great, what are you gonna call it? Donovan's baked edibles?" Matt suggests

Vee rolls her eyes, "pretty sure that might lead people to think I've put marijuana in the brownies,"

"And that's not the vibe your going for?"

Vee shakes her head, "No, not so much. I was thinking of including Honey in the name." she says cuddling the dog closer to her, "would you like that girl? huh?"

"So Honey's baked goods?"

"No, Lavender... Lavender and Honey will be the name."

"What's the significance of Lavender?" Matt asks.

"Personal significance, don't worry about it. I'm gonna go give Elena a call."
