I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING. EVERYTHING GOES TO THE VAMPIRE DIARIES THINGY AND LJ SMITH

Prologue

The warmth of both his hands on my cheeks contradicts with the coldness of my tears flowing down my face. "I swear. No one's going to harm you. Especially not Kol.

I stare at him, not being able to move. Or talk for that matter. I'm scared shitless by the events going on in my life. How am I supposed to fix this? "I was walking into my own trap, wasn't I?" I finally say.

"What?" he looks confused.

"Coming here to Mystic Falls." I remove myself from his grasp and use my sleeve to wipe my tears. "Meeting you. Stefan. Elena. Everyone. I was walking into my own trap."

A tiny bit of rage flares up in his eyes. "Only an idiot would think that."

"But it's true, isn't it?"

His eyes are filled with remorse and regret. "Stop. I can't lose you. Don't go."

I smile weakly at him. "You just keep falling harder and harder for each doppelganger, don't you?"

Damon's lips widen in a weak grin. He looks away momentarily. His hands land of my cheeks again and he slowly tries to lean in. I soon realize he's trying to kiss me.

"Damon, no." I say, pushing him away a tiny bit. Unfortunately, I can only get him to stop. His body stays stable on the ground. "What are you doing?"

"I don't want you to leave, Avery. And this might be extremely selfish of me, but I love you. And I don't want you to leave."
