Hey guys! Thank you for all the reviews. Please let me know if you like the direction of the story and please free to suggest elements that I you think I can or should incorporate in the story :)

Andrea watched Elijah teach their daughter how to ride a horse. She had grown fond of their bonding time. It was the only part of her day that she looked foward to. She hated her appointment. And she wasn't on good terms with Elijah because of his ideology and his betrothal to the queen. She felt nauseated every time she thought about them together. She decided to distract herself with work, so the evening gala that the queen had organised to celebrate the royalty of England didn't seem too overbearing.

After the never ending work that Davina and Andrea were made to do, they finally sat down to eat some food, though Andrea didn't care for it much but had to eat it to put up with her facade. Halfway through their meal a handsome man approached them. He introduced himself, " My name is Oliver. I am our Sire Elijah's squire" Both Davina and Andrea accepted his greetings and gave their introductions after asking him to sit with them. All of them spoke about the extravagant gala that the queen had wished. They talked, mocked and laughed.

Unbeknownst to them, Elijah stood outside the dining hall of the servants and saw Andrea interacting with his squire. He had come down to the servant quarters to ask Oliver about his evening wear. Jealously ran through his veins and he wanted to rip Oliver's throat. How could she speak to his squire but not him? He screamed Oliver's name, catching Oliver's attention. Poor Oliver came rushing towards the thundering sound. He had never imagined his sire to be that angry. He stood infront of sire with his head bowed down and eyes stuck to the ground. Usually he spoke to his sire in a more friendlier way. But not today and definitely not now.

Elijah commanded Oliver to fetch his clothes for the evening and redo everything. Oliver left swiftly and scared. Andrea saw the whole incident and got up to leave the quarters. Elijah stopped her and tried speaking to her, "Andrea...". But before he could finish his sentence, Andrea interrupted him saying ," Is there any service you wish from me my sire?", bowing down with bitterness in her eyes. Elijah was speechless. He didn't like the way Andrea was treating him. But before he could say anything, Andrea left.

He was infuriated by what happened just a few minutes ago. He was going towards his chambers but was stopped by Klaus. Klaus asked his brother, " Are you alright, brother? You seem angry" But Elijah didn't want to engage with him so he replied saying, " What do you want Niklaus?" Klaus noticed the harshness in his tone but chose to ignore it. He then asked him, " If you could spare me some of your valuable time, maybe we could discuss the hybrid army that I mentioned this morning?" Elijah was confused and irritated by his question. He asked, " What is this hybrid army that you are mentioning?" Klaus warned Elijah, " Careful brother, I do not care for your tone! We had this conversation in the morning with Katherine!" At this point Elijah had had it. He angrily replied, " Why would like to have the likes of you protecting my society? All you have ever done is destroy my happiness!" Klaus glared at Elijah with rage in his eyes and said, " Enough! I suggest you keep your mouth shut brother before you regret it" "Or else what? You would dagger me as well like the rest of our siblings?", Elijah replied. But before he knew it, Klaus' fangs were deep in his neck and Elijah screamed with pain. Klaus then said, " I warned you brother! Now writhe in agony!" With this he left Elijah to fend for himself. Elijah managed to reach his chamber but knew he will have to suffer for the rest of the day.

Katherine stood outside Elijah's chamber and could hear him shout in pain. He had been in misery for hours now. She tried contacting Klaus but he was nowhere to be found. She had then called the best healer in her kingdom to cure him of his disease. The healer came out of his chamber with marks on his neck. He could barely speak but somehow managed to say, " I don't have a cure for what he is suffering from. I can't even go near him as he is hallucinating and nearly choked me to death. But he keeps taking a name. Somebody called 'Andrea'. I suggest you call her." With that the healer left. Katherine stood there embarrassed in front of the guard who were placed in front of Elijah's chamber. She couldn't recall the face but knew that she had heard that name before. She left hoping Elijah would feel better by tomorrow, after all he was an Original Vampire, to go dress up for the evening gala.

Andrea could hear Elijah in pain as she stood outside witnessing the whole interaction between the healer and Katherine. She came forward as soon as Katherine left. She compelled the guards to let her in. She saw Elijah writhing in pain and sweating. She immediately climbed onto his bed, keeping his head in her lap and wiped the sweat with her skirt. Elijah began to hallucinate again and said, " Please don't leave me Andrea. Please come back to me Andrea..." Hearing him talk about her made her well up. She said, " I am here Elijah and I will never leave you". Elijah could sense her and his hand automatically went behind her neck and he kissed her passionately. She returned the kiss with her tongue swirling in his mouth. She didn't leave him till he felt better and fell asleep.

The evening came and all the staff were busy with their assigned duties. Andrea watched everyone frantically organising the food, tables, decorations etc. But her mind was on Elijah. She wanted to check on him again for her satisfaction. She asked Davina to cover for her and walked towards Elijah's chamber. She was surprised when the guards let her in without interruption. Her compulsion had never worked for this long before. She walked in and saw Elijah shirtless. Elijah turned around and heard her breath hitch, her heart racing and saw the pink hue on her cheeks. His seduction worked perfectly. Andrea cleared her throat looking at the ground and asked, " How are you feeling now?" "Quite well actually. Thank you Andrea", Elijah answered as he wore his dress shirt. Andrea felt awkward standing there so she asked to be excused, " I should go down and look after after my duties now". But before she could leave Elijah asked, " Before you leave, mind if I ask you a question?" Andrea nodded her head. Elijah smirked and asked, " During the time of my agony, did you kiss me?", Andrea cheeks became pinker when she heard his question. She shyly nodded her head. She didn't realize when she was teleported next to the bed. Elijah held her face in his hands and kissed her deeply. When the kiss ended she stared at him. She knew she should leave but she couldn't fight her feelings which Elijah reignited in her, and she kissed him back. And before she knew it she was on the bed with Elijah hovering over her. Elijah tore her clothing and she ripped his shirt and pants. Elijah kissed her face, jaw line, her neck and her sucked on her breasts. She mewled under him. She breathed deeply and felt her core becoming wetter. Elijah went further south, kissing her stomach. He then nipped her clitoris and Andrea gasped sharply. Elijah could smell her arousal and his eyes went black. She had seen him in his vampire form only once before, but unlike last time she was aroused by it now. She somehow felt closer to him and touched his face with her hand. He then kissed her neck, with his fangs grazing her neck and before she knew it again his fangs penetrated her neck and screamed in pleasure as she came, hard. If the gala hadn't been going on, everybody would have heard her cries of pleasure. She was enjoying her orgasm in waves when Elijah lifted leg and penetrated her core with his member and thrusted in and out of her at a brutal pace hitting her magic spot. She came again and again and again. Her body began to resonate with pleasure, writhing in it. She dug her nails of one hand in his back making it bleed and and held the bed post with the other. The strength of her grip shattered it to pieces. After giving her countless orgasms, Elijah finally released in her and rolled off of her. Both were panting out of breath. Elijah licked the remaining blood on her neck and kissed her forehead gently. He placed his hand on her cheek and kissed her chastely on her lips, taking the view of her after their act of intimacy. She smiled and put her hand behind his head and deepened the kiss. She knew the night was long and she was determined to exploit it.
