Love Me Like a Curse

In Mystic Falls, Elena Gilbert is the story everyone understands-soft, selfless, and always doing what's right. Her twin, Kaitlyn Gilbert, is the part no one quite knows what to do with.

Kaitlyn is the opposite in all the ways that matter. She doesn't stay still, doesn't soften easily, and never quite fits the image the town keeps trying to press her into. Where Elena is held up as perfect, Kaitlyn is constantly measured against her-told, directly or not, that she should be more like her sister and less like herself.

She was home with Jeremy and Jenna the night of the crash. She survived it, but something in her doesn't. What follows isn't just grief-it's a quiet, heavy survivor's guilt that never really leaves her.

At funerals, Kat never looks directly at the coffin for long. Not because she's afraid, but because making death feel real is overwhelming in a way she can't explain.

And in a town that keeps trying to reshape her into Elena's reflection, Kaitlyn Gilbert always ends up feeling like second best... until she stops trying to stay at all.

But what happens when leaving Mystic Falls feels easier than staying and becoming someone she's not?
