Trying to love (Elijah Mikaelson)

Chapter 8

*Amelia's POV*

I woke up with a short gasp. The first thing I saw was Niklaus, his expression was angry and he stood at the foot of my bed. I then realised that my hand was being tightly gripped by that of Elijah.

I turned my head to see his bloodshot eyes, my head felt like I had hit it 10,000 times before being knocked out.

"Bed, why am I in bed?" I asked confused, my question went unanswered as Niklaus had started talking to Elijah

"I told you, we should have bloody killed him" the words kill came to my mind and I gripped Elijah tighter.

"How are you feeling?" Elijah asked me

"Terrible" I exclaimed "why am I here? And why do I have this blasted pain in my stomach?" I groaned as the pain had gotten worse. I felt that I needed to eat something, I felt like I have been starved.

Elijah released my hand as I sat up more, revealing a silver ring with a bright blue stone in the middle. I had seen this gem somewhere, I thought as I studied it and then I realised

"Why on earth am I wearing a daylight ring?" I asked waiting for a straightforward answer

"Well what was the last thing you remember?" klaus replied to my question with a question, and I wasn't pleased

"I remember walking downstairs, finding a note from Elijah to meet him in the maze, that's it really" I explained "that is where I must have fallen and hit my head" I pieced it all together and looked at how they at stared me, and then some it came back

"But it was not Elijah who had arranged to meet me, it was someone else" my smile dropped as I remembered "he was tall and rather odd" I shook my head, to try and get the memories to appear faster "it was Edward, did he hurt me? What did he do?" I asked, my calm demeanour turned to a panic

"Tell her Elijah" those three words uttered by Klaus was the first thing I really understood, something bad had happened

"Edward" Elijah started, as if painful to finish " Edward killed you last night" his face painful with the truth

"What? How did he kill me? But he couldn't have because I'm still here" and then I realised. The daylight ring, their pained faces. The fact that I knew Edward is still alive, they were waiting for me.

"I'm a vampire, aren't I?" I asked quietly. Elijah only looked towards the floor, but that was all the answer I needed "and I have to drink blood?" I asked

"Yes but we have a plan of revenge" Niklaus started "Edward knows about vampires, but he doesn't know we are, especially you"

"Where is this going?" I asked suspiciously

"You will feed, we will teach you what we know and how to control your hunger. When you're ready, we will empty his house, except for him and you, you do a theatrical performance, mess with his head a bit and eventually drain him of every single drop he has, slowly"

I rolled my eyes "and exactly how long will this take?" I asked, eager for my revenge

"Only a day or two, hopefully, but we have even picked up your outfit"he smiled, walking to the side. Behind him, a dress, the sight of this dress made my smile uncontrollably

"I believe this was the wedding dress Edward had picked out for you, you never had chance to wear it" he laughed

"That's perfect" I examined the dress on the mannequin. It was long and puffed out. The arms were white lace, which covered the arm, yet showed the skin from underneath.

I heard Elijah tut "my apologies Elijah" Niklaus said and turned to me "he doesn't like the idea as the first time he would like to see you in a wedding dress would be just for him" he laughed. Elijah shook his head and pushed Niklaus playfully.
