A/U


April 1864

Her breath became shallow, the pain throbbing throughout her body.

'W-why?' she whispered, looking up at her assailant. Blood dripped from a cut on her right cheek, but she was too wreak, too broken. She cradled her left hand to her chest, fingers bent out of shape.

He looked down at her, a sneer forming across his lips, 'did you really think I would let my son cavort with one of your kind…a negro?'

Clang clang.

The grate shut above her. She lay on the floor in her precious white dress, looking up through the grates. Through the grid, she could see the torch waving around. Only shadows beyond that.

She tried to talk, but nothing came out of her bruised throat. Pausing, she licked her dry cracked lips before speaking again. 'Please let me out.'

She could almost hear pity in his voice, 'I am afraid I cannot do that. My son has had his fun with you. Now it is time for him to set you aside.'

'We did not do anything.' her hands clung to the damp wall of the well, knees bent trying to fit in the cramp space. 'Please' she begged. 'Please let me go. '

'You will fetch a good price even if you are spoiled goods. A young, pretty face like yours...are always in demand.'

With the fading footsteps, Bonnie choked on her tears.

'Please'

'Please'

'Damon…' she softly whispered.

Only the moon saw the broken girl at the bottom of the well.


A/N: This is my first time writing in this fandom, I enjoyed many Bamon stories on here and especially liked the 1860s ones. I was thinking about this scene, and it was playing in my head for weeks. I had to write it down. It has been a long time since I've been inspired to write anything, so I thought I would post it and see what people thought about it. I do intend to write out a fully story if this is well received. I was thinking about exclusively staying in the past, but there are one or two scenes I have in mind that can be from the present. I do not intend to steal anyone else's work, so if this is similar to anyone else's story, please let me know.

The language I use in my story is solely reflecting the setting in which this story takes place, and that is it.

please leave me a review
