Update!
Going after Klaus!
Let me know what you think :)
It took a few hours to do the blood work. The drug Klaus had been using was hard to trace, as it sped through the system very quickly, however, they were lucky enough to get a residue sample from her blood stream.
The antigen for the drug was considerably easier to find. Just a basic neuron enhancer, allowing her brain to transmit enough co-enzymes to overpower the drug.
Elena was feeling pretty confident, and they had decided to get in contact with Klaus the next day. The sooner, the better, but Elena had to see Jenna, and she wanted one more night with Damon before taking this risk.
They were back at Damon and Stefan's house now, and Jenna had just pulled up.
"She's here," Damon murmured, as the door opened.
Elena stood from the couch, walking toward the opening, "Jenna?"
Her aunt was there, tears in her eyes, "Oh my God, Elena!"
She ran to her, their arms encircling one another.
"I was so scared that it wasn't true, that it was some kind of trick or something," Jenna rushed, "I can't believe it's really you! That you're alive!"
She pulled back finally, and Elena was smiling through her own tears, "I know, and I'm so glad to see you."
She glanced behind Jenna, seeing Ric, and moved to hug him too.
They all walked into the parlor, and Damon smiled at the guest.
"Wow, this place is huge," Jenna declared, sitting down across from her niece, who took her spot by Damon.
"It was my fathers," Damon explained.
Jenna nodded, "It's nice...but anyway, what happened? How is this possible?"
Elena sighed, glancing at Damon before launching into the story.
Jenna was shocked by all that the girl had endured, and she didn't miss the way Damon's fist clenched when she spoke about Klaus, and the things he had done to her.
"Are you sure that that is a good idea?" She asked when Elena told her the plan for the following day.
Damon scoffed, "Of course it isn't. But she's insistent."
Elena rolled her eyes before addressing her aunt, "I have to do this, Jenna. Yes I know, it's dangerous, but I'll feel a whole lot better knowing he's in prison for life."
"But what if you get hurt?" Jenna asked, and Damon seemed pleased that he wasn't the only worried one.
"I'll be fine. Klaus kept me alive for a reason...I think he gets more satisfaction out of it. If he kills me, he has nothing against Damon...if he dangles me in front of him, it doubles his revenge."
Jenna sighed, "Just be careful baby."
Elena smiled, taking her hand, "Nothing is going to happen to me, Jenna. Klaus is the only one that needs to be worried."
Their visit didn't end until late into the night, but Elena was still wide awake when Damon finally suggested they get some sleep. Jenna and Ric were going to stay in one of the guest rooms for the night.
Once in the room, Elena stripped down to her underwear, then crawled under the blankets.
Damon was next to her in seconds, his arms going around her.
"Promise me that you'll be careful tomorrow," he told her, his eyes blazing.
"I will."
He didn't look very convinced, so she took his face in one of her hands. He leaned into her touch.
"Damon, I promise you, after tomorrow, I'll be back in your arms, in this bed, every single night. And we can live every day exactly how we want, without being afraid."
Damon's gaze hardened, "I don't fear Klaus, I'm only afraid of losing you."
She smiled sadly, "It's not going to happen. But think of Will, and me, and everyone else that Klaus has ever wronged. We owe it to ourselves to put him away...I have the power to do that."
Damon sighed, "I know, and your right...but it doesn't make it easy."
"Nothing worth the risk is ever easy," she kissed him, "And we still have tonight."
"Then let's make the most of it," he pulled her against him.
Their bodies molded together until she couldn't tell where she ended and he began. His lips were hard against hers, but not hungry, like before. This kiss was long, building. She could feel the emotions radiating from him. His love for her, the worry...it all twisted together, along with his determination to see Klaus pay, his rage at what the man had done, and his fear, that something worse was to come.
She wanted to comfort him, and settled on reassuring him that she was there, that they were together, and it would all be okay.
His hands trailed up and down her body as his lips grazed across her face, down her neck, and up again. She let her hands run across his ribs, and up his chest, holding his shoulders, as her lips connected to any part of his skin that they could reach.
He removed her bra, the panties following soon after, and she pulled his boxers off his body.
His presence consumed her. Everything she could see, smell, hear, touch, and taste, was him.
It was as if nothing else existed when he finally thrust into her, in one slow, swift motion, making them one.
Their strides were strong, though almost lazy, compared to the time that morning, but she was hot lava beneath him. She didn't realize that she'd been craving this, the slow, passionate love making that had always overtook them both in the past.
Damon was good at giving attention to every one of her needs. Her body responded to him in such a way, that no other man would stand a chance. He was imprinted on her skin, his touch, igniting a thousand of her nerves.
Her lips were swollen from his kiss when he pulled away to look into her eyes as they moved together. She couldn't explain what she saw in those giant blue orbs, but she knew that she was never going to give it up.
She let one hand lift from his shoulder, to his face. She pulled him down, kissing him again, before he rested his head in the crook of her neck. She could feel him everywhere, in the sweetest way.
She felt his lips suckle at the skin the base of her neck, and fought back a moan.
They consummated their love for hours into the night, before finally falling back against the pillows, completely spent, wrapped up in each other.
Elena dropped her head to rest on his chest as he let his arms drape loosely around her. His breathing had hollowed out, back to normal, but his heart was still beating a little fast. She listened to it, the noise soothing her as her lover's fingers began to trail patterns on the skin of her arm.
Her eyes drifted closed, as Damon whispered sweet nothings to her.
She smiled against him, finally, at peace.
