"Elena must love how often you come here to see us," murmured Katherine softly. She watched Elijah snuggle their daughter close, breathing in her baby scent. She was over four months old and was growing quickly in size. Raina bore Elijah's dark looks, especially his lips. Other then that, she looked exactly like her mother.
"Elena understands I come here to see our daughter. I allow you to be her primary caregiver as a kindness to our daughter. I do not wish for her to know what it is like to have no mother in her life, Katerina. That is something you should understand." Elijah then placed Raina back into her crib.
Katherine smirked at his response, but she could not argue with it. She would not want to part with Raina. She knew exactly how it felt like to lose your mother. "Alright," She said in agreement.
"I will see her again tomorrow night before her bedtime," said Elijah. He gave her no further response. Elijah was not going to argue about Elena with her again tonight. Elijah then vanished when she blinked her eyes. He was gone from the bedroom.
"No, leave me alone!" Elena shouted while asleep. She bolted up in bed to find herself wrapped into Elijah's embrace. He was kissing her face. "Elijah..." She said softly. She gladly took his kisses.
She wanted to forget her nightmare. She wanted to forget everything that was bothering her. The kiss with Marcel stood out inside her mind.
He had terrible nerve. Elena wondered what Elijah would do should he find out that Marcel kissed her. She blushed pink in remembrance. "I love that blush," Elijah told her, his voice husky.
Elena then blushed again before returning more passionate kisses.
"I was speaking to Rachael," said Elijah suddenly, stopping the next kiss. "She believes she has found the right spell to release you of your suffering. Or to ease you from it. She wants to do it tonight."
Elena was floored to hear the news. She was going with the reality that she may never escape what was happening to her. She had briefly considered going home and giving up, and maybe see her friends in Mystic Falls. She did miss home, she missed Jeremy her brother, she even missed Damon, also Stefan.
Her romantic feelings for Damon were gone, but she still missed the friendship they once had. With Damon though, it was all or nothing. And she couldn't give him anything other than friendship. She was in love with Elijah now.
"We best get dressed and ready for Rachael. She should be here shortly."

"The bond has taken hold," Rachael told Elijah and Elena. "Hopefully, it will be enough."
Only time would tell.
