ELOISE.
She would be killed for being impure.

That sentence echoed in my head all the way to the field where the wedding would be taking place. My mind was so occupied that I didn’t realise I was already face–to–face with Damon.
After I came back ti reality, I gave myself time to look at him, really look at him. He looked so good; he wore a suit that made him sharp and dapper, and his eyes, hidden behind sunglasses, were set on me. He was looking at me like a hawk, but I tried ti avoid his gaze because they always made me feel a certain way.
I didn’t know whether to indulge my feelings, but I highly doubt it would end well.

He must have gone through much worse than this, I remembered the scars I saw on his back the other night that we were together.
“It’s time to drink,” the priestess muttered and shook the silver cup to mix the blood. This was a known culture to me, and legends have it that the blood of these two people is very powerful, and if ordinary people drank it, they would become powerful.
When the woman was done stirring it together, she placed it on the table in the elevator. I shakily reached for the cup with my hand. After a few seconds of deliberating, just a few seconds, I drank the contents of the cup, and a sparkle traveled through my body. I gave the

cup to Damon, who did the same thing. I watched his wolf change colors beneath his sunshade.
