Chapter 3.

Damon woke. He turned over expecting to see Lilly beside him, but she wasn't. He sat up and looked around. He was in Lilly's bed, in Lilly's room. The décor here was far more lavish then in his own room. He felt himself grow slightly jealous. He ran a hand through his hair and realised he could hear music. A piano by the sound of it, playing a tune he knew well. It was a German tune that Stephan had often played. Pachebels Cannon. It was a classic now, but he liked it. He got up and dressed before heading downstairs to seek his missing bed partner. It didn't take long, he found her in the music room playing a large black grand piano. She obviously knew the tune by heart, there were no music sheets, and she had her eyes closed. Damon couldn't help but wonder how long she had spent practising until it was perfect. He stood in the doorway until she finished before approaching her. "Well played…" He commented.

"Thank you." Said Lilly. She seemed oddly still. "An old friend taught me many years ago. He looked after me when I was young; the tune reminds me of him."

"I take it you haven't seen him in a while?"

"Not in a hundred years." Said Lilly. "Literally. He used to live with my mother and the Black Angel vampires, but, he's since moved on, I don't know where he is living now."

"You speak of him as family." Said Damon. Lilly laughed slightly.

"No. I never considered him family, just as a best friend. However, he was a Black Angel."

"I'm sorry." Said Damon. "I don't believe I've heard of the Black Angels." Lilly looked surprised.

"The Black Angels is a world wide organisation of vampires! They are led by my mother, and because of this, none of them drink human blood without the humans consent. They almost become a separate society. My mother is on the Vampire council…" Lilly shook her head. "But they waste there time looking after humanity."

"And your mother tried to bring you up as one of them?" Damon asked. Lilly laughed again.

"No, my parents had very little hand in my growing up, no…my best friend took care of me, he tried to teach me right from wrong and obviously, he failed miserably."

"Hmm." Said Damon. "Yet you still wish to see him?"

"Just because we have different morals, doesn't mean I can't love him." A pang of hate and jealousy went through Damon.

"I don't like to share." He said darkly. Lilly laughed a third time.

"Damon, the love I have for this man, and the love I have for you are two completely different loves. Not that I expect you to understand love."

"On the contrary," Said Damon, "I have had enough experience of it to understand it."

"That I doubt." Lilly replied.

"Still, you want to see this man again, I'm sure we can find him."

"We don't have to look far…" She passed him an open letter that was lying on the piano. Damon read it.

"The Black Angel Ball?" He said.

"They have one every year marking the anniversary of when the Black Angels was set up."

"And you go?" Said Damon surprised.

"No, not usually, but sometimes I go to see…"

"This friend of yours…I see."

"I will go this year. You are welcome to accompany me."

"Will they let a vampire like me in?" Damon said sounding sceptical.

"Sure, as long as you're with me." Said Lilly. "Its tomorrow night, I hope you have something appropriate to wear." She got up and swept passed him, as she did Damon caught her upper arm.

"One more thing Lilly…Did you…enjoy last night?" Lilly looked mildly surprised.

"Yes." She said shortly. "Why? You don't seem the type to regret."

"Regret? No, I don't regret, I just wanted to make sure you didn't…"

"There is very little that I regret Damon. Very little." Damon smiled his charming smile and pulled her closer to him."

"I'm sure…" He said. He leaned close and kissed her. Lilly relaxed in his arms and let his hands travel over her.

Damon was waiting at the foot of the stairs, the taxi was outside waiting also. He called up. "Lilly! Are you ready yet?" She appeared at the top. Damon felt his eyes grow slightly wide, and narrowed them again. Lilly was dressed in a long silk gown. Her smooth shoulders were bare, the front was white silk, there was a white underskirt framed by a black over skirt. She wore long black silk gloves. In her ears were black jewelled earrings, and around her neck, was a black choker studded with the same jewel. She looked sensational. She descended towards him, but when she arrived at the bottom of the stairs, she glided passed him to the coat hooks by the door. She picked up a long silky cloak and threw it over her shoulders fastening the black jewelled fastenings. Damon moved to stand close to her. "You look beautiful." He said. Lilly gave a small, seductive smile.

"Thank you. You don't look half bad yourself,"

"What's that supposed to mean?" Damon asked slightly angry. "Half bad? I'm all bad!" Lilly laughed.

"I mean you won't embarrass me too much." She swept to the door and opened it. "Are you coming or are you going to stay here and sulk?" Damon followed her out to the waiting Taxi.

Damon stepped into the Black Angel entrance hall. The main headquarters and the house where Lilly grew up, was a large, gothic mansion on the outskirts of London, and was furnished appropriately. The main hall was packed with people. Damon was surprised just how many people were Black Angels. Damon didn't like it. All the vampires around him were like his brother. Weak, stupid, inferior. He scowled, then did a double take. He had sworn he'd seen someone all too familiar at the bar. Someone with blond hair and blue eyes and the name, Elena. But when he looked back, she wasn't there. He shook himself slightly. Elena was in America, what possible reason would she have for being here? He focused on Lilly again, who was getting a lot of stares from a lot of the members. Suddenly, someone called her name, and Damon followed her lead when she turned round. A woman was coming towards them. She looked a lot like Lilly. She had long curly brown hair, and a delicate face, smooth curves…but her eyes were darker, and the brown of her hair was a shade darker. Damon guessed she was related to Lilly, he was proved right a moment later. Lilly inclined her head only very slightly. "Mother…" She acknowledged. Her tone was stiff and formal, almost spiteful. She was not happy to see this woman. Lilly's mother however pretended not to notice and hugged her daughter anyhow. Damon could tell, this only raised Lilly's bad mood.

"It's good to see you Lilly, it's been a long time, you should visit more often."

"I didn't think vampires like me were allowed to visit." Said Lilly harshly,

"Don't be silly… You are my daughter, besides, anyone is allowed to visit, just not live here."

"I don't need your protection any more mother." Said Lilly,

"That I can see…" Lilly's mother looked Damon up and down. "You look familiar," She said to him, "Have we met before?"

"No." Said Damon, "This is my first visit to England."

"That may be so, but I have visited many countries."

"I do not believe we have met." Finished Damon. The woman shrugged,

"Oh well. Maybe we passed on the street."

"Perhaps." Said Damon. He suddenly realised Lilly was not standing with him any longer. He looked around wildly and spotted her by the bar. "Excuse me." He said moving away from Lilly's mother and towards Lilly. "Have you seen your friend yet? I wouldn't mind leaving!" he said irritably when he reached her. Lilly smiled.

"I've just spotted him, Come, I want to introduce you to him."

"Why, to get his approval?"

"I suppose, yes." She took his hand and guided him around different people. Damon looked ahead and realised who she was taking him to see. What the hell was he doing here? Lilly stopped in front of Stefan. He looked round and spotted her.

"Lilly!" he said. He hugged her. Damon scowled. Why did Stefan always have the girls, why was it, that every pretty woman Damon met, Stefan had to be involved? Why did he always get there first, just how many woman did Stefan need? He was angry, furious, livid. Stefan and Lilly broke off. Stefan didn't seem to have noticed him. Damon watched as Stefan introduced Lilly to Elena. Then Elena's eyes snapped up and saw him. Damon got a little satisfaction from the look on her pretty face. She gasped and caught Stefan's arm. Stefan, who had been talking to Lilly, looked round at her. He followed her gaze and saw him too. "Damon!" He said. Damon smiled the same smug smile he always used on his brother. Lilly looked between them.

"Damon!"

"That is my name." Said Damon coolly. "Kindly don't wear it out."

"Why didn't you tell me you knew Stefan?" Lilly asked him sharply,

"You never told me his name, you only hero-worshipped him. How typical." Lilly frowned.

"I get the feeling there is some rivalry I don't know about." Said Lilly,

"Sibling rivalry." Explained Elena.

"Sibling? Do you want to explain Damon?" Damon sensed Lilly's temper rising to a dangerous level, apparently, Stefan had too.

"Damon is my older brother Lilly." He explained.

"That doesn't tell me anything about why you hate one another." Said Lilly.

"It's a very long, complicated story." Said Damon bitterly. "Our latest dispute however, was over Miss Elena here, or is it Mrs now?"

"Stop it Damon." Said Stefan boldly.

"No you stop it Stefan!" Said Damon, his voice raising. "You stop getting in my way or I may have to do something I may regret later!"

"Damon." Said Lilly. "That's enough. Fine you are brothers, but now is not the time to fight."

"Oh yes, stick up for Stefan!" Damon had never felt so angry, maybe it was because he had never felt so in love before, and to find that Stefan had a place in Lilly's heart almost as big as his mad him angry. "I told you Lilly, I don't like to share!" With that, he turned and vanished amongst the crowd.

The party was over. Elena slipped into bed next to Stefan. "Damon really got worked up tonight." She said, "I hope he's ok."

"He can take care of himself. I'm just worried about Lilly; I thought her last boyfriend was bad!" Said Stefan.

"What do you mean?" Elena asked.

"Lilly used to be a Black Angel. She left when she met Jack Fleetwood. He married her, but died only a few years later. Jack was terrible, but not quite as powerful as Damon." Stefan shook his head. "When Jack died, Lilly was pregnant, the Demon hunters that killed Jack, killed her unborn child too, it scarred her for life, made her so hateful that I feared for her. I always thought that she would get better though, that she might one day come back, but…" He shook his head again. "I don't think she's got any plans for that now. She seems as serious about Damon as she was with Jack, and just as in love with him, and that's saying a lot. Lilly loved Jack, more than anything I've ever known. I worry about her. Every year that she carried that wound, it gets heavier and heavier for her, she's in pain, and I can't do anything to help her. I hope maybe Damon can. But I don't want her to get attached to him like she did with Jack, if anything were to happen to Damon, I don't think Lilly would survive." Elena looked sympathetic.

"Why did Lilly leave the Black Angels? Her mother, Iris, she told me that you could be married to an outsider…" Elena asked after a moment.

"Because Lilly couldn't abide by the rules any more. Before she met Jack, Iris had decided to shield her daughter as much as possible from the vampire's true nature. When Jack met Lilly, he decided to tech her all about true vampires, and how to be powerful. Lilly followed him and did as she was told. Eventually the dark side of her just took over. Lilly wasn't weak, she just found the darkness more…'fun'. As she called it." Stefan lay down and closed his eyes. "She's one of the most powerful vampires around, she's killed a fear few originals, I don't think Damon realises the full extent of her power. Lilly's become the worst of the worst, especially after Jack died; she's bent on revenge…" Elena rested her head on his chest.

"Do you think she'll find peace?"

"Hell, I hope so; the last thing we want is Lilly for an enemy. She's far too powerful." He turned to face Elena. "All the demon hunters are after her, they'll stop at nothing to destroy her, and…I'm afraid that eventually, there way may be the only way. But, I practically raised her, I know what she used to be like, I can't believe that that woman is gone, she has to be in there somewhere, and I prey that she comes back. I prey that she comes home before it's too late."

Damon was walking in the park. He was hungry and he was angry. Not a good combination. Why did Stefan always get in the way? Why was Stefan always ahead of him? What did Lilly see in Stefan? What did Stefan have that he didn't! He walked passed the children play park and saw a little girl about twelve year's old standing by the gate, alone. He crept up behind her. "It's a little late for a little girl to be out isn't it?" he said aloud startling her. The smell of fear stimulated him.

"I'm not little!" She said trying to sound big. "I'm gonna be thirteen next month!"

"How can you be so sure you'll live till then? You might have…an accident." The girl frowned.

"I shouldn't talk to strangers." She said. "Besides, my mum will be here soon…she's picking me up." Damon could tell this was a pathetic attempt to make him think twice, the girl had sensed she was in danger. A small smile escaped his lips.

"It's ok. I'm not a stranger…more, a shadow." He reached out and tilted her chin up. The fear in her eyes caused his fangs to elongate, He clutched her shoulders and moved forward…his eyes fixed on her throat, that warm throat with its warm, red blood…Cold fingers grasped the back of his neck. Damon could sense a blinding fire of power, enough to make him only a little afraid, it was angry, and hurt, "Drop her!" Said a cool, harsh voice…

Chapter four coming soon!
