I know exactly what Elijah Mikaelson is. Immortal. Dangerous. The kind of man who could ruin me with a glance, and I think he already has. I moved back to Mystic Falls for a quiet life. A normal job. A fresh start after losing more than I could bear. I didn't expect ancient vampires, werewolves in the woods, or to be caught between life, death... and him. Elijah is everything I shouldn't want, older than time, sharp as a knife, and so calm it drives me insane. But when he looks at me, it's not calm I see. It's hunger. Restraint. Something dark and devastating hiding beneath the surface. He's too close when he speaks. His hands linger when they shouldn't. And when he says my name, it's not just a name anymore - it's a promise. I'm just a human girl with too much trauma. He's a vampire with a body count. This should be a disaster. But when he touches me, I forget how to be afraid. He gave me his word. I gave him my soul. Now we're bound by something deeper than love, the kind of vow only blood remembers. ˖ ❀ ⋆｡˚ ˖ ❀ ⋆｡˚ ˖ ❀ ⋆｡˚ ˖ ❀ ⋆｡˚ ˖ ❀ ⋆｡˚ ˖ ❀ ⋆｡˚ ˖ OC x Elijah Mikaelson TVD season 2 onwards
