malignant [ damon salvatore ].

00. [prologue]

   [he was thought to be malignant,
    but he had a soft spot. and that
    soft spot was her.]

malignant was often a word associated with cancers, tumours and awful, incurable illnesses. it is used to describe people evil in nature, people showing a wish to cause harm or pain to others.
that's what damon salvatore was described as.

but she was determined to find what was beneath that hard shell. determined to push aside his dark past and bring his light side to the surface. there had to be one in there. after all, no one is truly all bad, are they?
