Writer's Notes: Thank you CrazyGryl for your review! Yes, and there is more to the twin thing later on. There will be an explanation for it later. This will be the last chapter I post for tonight. I wanted to get a few chapters out so everyone can see what's going on and hopefully make a bunch of people really happy. Please remember to comment, follow/favorite!

Angela's eyes fluttered open. She had been sleeping. She felt hunger pangs and looked over to Ben whose head was hung down against his chest. Now there was another woman there with them. She was older, darker skinned she could see. Her mouth was taped shut, but she wasn't bleeding at all. Her eyes were calm, looking at Angela. Angela's eyes went wide, but the woman only shook her head. Her hands raised in front of her, tied like Angela's and reached over to check Ben lightly. When he moved his head up a little, both Angela and the woman seemed to be relieved when he was alive. They heard footsteps again and Angela started to panic.

A man appeared now. He wasn't the same as before like the one with the dreadlocks. He was pale, with dark brown hair, and his eyes were a dark crimson red. "I'm going out to get food for you." He announced and swiveled his head to look at the new woman and sighed. "Really Laurent." The man muttered something that they couldn't hear and then just shook his head and turned and left them alone again. Tears started to run down Angela's face. How long had they been down here now? She knew it had to be a few days. The other man had called the dreadlocks man Laurent. He brought them water and bread before, but she didn't know if it was night or day anymore. She closed her eyes, wishing that all of this was just a dream.

Edward finally figured out what Carlisle and Esme were hiding from him. When they had their guard down, he had pretended to leave. When Carlisle thought he wasn't within earshot, he had called Alice. Alice had updated Carlisle on Bella. Bella. His Bella was in danger, and that's really why Emmett took off a few days ago. So now here he was, driving from New York to Mystic Falls, Virginia to protect what was his.

Bella blinked her eyes open. She was staring up into violet eyes now. She blinked a few more times and then raised up, Violet's hand helping her sit up now. "What?"

Klaus squatted down now to be level with Bella and Violet, who were sitting in the floor in his art room. "Bella, you had quite a faint," his voice was smooth, and his smile was charming.

"I did?" Bella's voice cracked. Her throat was dry, and it was burning. "Can I have water?" she said and then Alice was beside her handing her a bottled water quickly. Bella drank half of it quickly without stopping. "I'm sorry," she said looking to Violet. "I guess I was just…overwhelmed."

Violet shook her head. "It's a big surprise I know. Honestly, I always knew I was adopted, so when Stefan showed up at Whitmore and then brought me here, I didn't get too surprised. You didn't even know about me, so I understand."

Bella nodded and smiled. She felt instantly connected with Violet. Maybe it was a twin thing? She looked to Klaus who was standing now, holding his hand out for her to take it. Bella slipped her hand into his and he lifted her to her feet. The tingling in her scar went up her arm, and it made her shiver. She pulled her hand from his quickly and rubbed it over her jeans.

"Um. Well, thank you," she said to Klaus and then turned to Violet. "So, do you know who our older brothers are?"

Violet looked at her with a confused look. "Brothers?"

"Oh," She said and looked to Jasper and Lexi. "I thought…" she wasn't sure what to say now.

"You have older twin brothers somewhere that are probably like 5 years older than you both," Lexi said matter of fact.

"Ah," Violet said and nodded and just shrugged. "So, that'll be another project for me. I'm assuming that we're going to go back to the boarding house now that the cats all out of the bag and all that jazz," she said, and Bella looked at her stunned.

"You're not bothered by anything…" Bella murmured and Violet shrugged. "If I worried about every little…" she drifted off and turned and looked at Klaus and raised a brow. "Inappropriate Klaus."

"He didn't say anything," Bella said looking at them confused.

"Oh, I read minds," Violet said matter of fact like.

Bella pressed a finger to her temple, which was starting to ebb. "Oh. Makes total sense." She said with a little laugh. Jasper was standing beside Bella now, his fingers brushing her temple and helping relieve the pressure building up in her head. Lexi watched how Jasper doted on Bella, it made her curious about the man that she heard Damon call Major a couple of times.

"Well, I suppose we should head back to the boarding house. I think I need a very heavy drink and a hot shower," Bella said and looked to Klaus. "Thank you…for everything."

Klaus nodded. "Anything for you Little Swan." He walked over and lifted her hand up to his lips and kissed her knuckles gently. "Don't forget about the masquerade ball next weekend." He called and was leaving out of the room. He didn't like small talk and had to address fight breaking out upstairs between Kol and Finn.

Bella, Lexi, Violet, and Jasper got into Bella's jeep and sat for a moment before Jasper pointed the Jeep towards the boarding house and drove.

"I have a Jeep like this," Violet said. "It's white, but I bought a Jeep."

Bella smiled. "It must be a twin thing," she said as she looked out the window. She wasn't sure what she was supposed to feel right now, but she did know that she was happy that Violet was her sister. She always wanted a family when she was growing up. She had to raise herself pretty much, and well, she wished for a sister or brother that would be there to help her when she needed someone.

"I'm here now," Violet said and then lay her hand on Bella's shoulder. Bella brought her hand up and linked her fingers with hers.

The boarding house was oddly quiet when the four of them walked in. Jared had left to go meet with Rebecca and Jake had left to see Caroline. Tyler and Leah were at the Lockwood mansion talking. Damon and Stefan were in the parlor with Alice when they walked in. Damon looked up at the other girl that looked almost like Bella. Her hair was different and she wore contacts, but she seemed slightly different somehow.

"This is Violet Foxx, " Bella introduced her to Damon. "This is Damon Salvatore, Stefan's older brother."

Violet nodded to Damon. "Yeah, I gathered it was him. You know. I've heard your name a few times…" she said and lifted a hand to her chin in her thinking pose. "Ah yes," she said as her eyes lit up. "Enzo St John."

Damon froze. "What did you say?"

"Enzo St John. He's one of the vamps on campus at Whitmore. He teaches Mythological studies," Violet said and turned her head to look around the room. Damon was the only one looking at her intensely. She picked it out of her head and then nodded, understanding. "You were the other one."

Damon felt anger rise, but he tamed it down. "You don't know anything about what happened."

"It wasn't your fault, and clearly Enzo is alive and well. You had to flip your switch. I get it. Enzo doesn't talk about it much either," she said.

Bella crossed to the liquor cabinet herself and poured herself whiskey this time instead of the normal brandy. "So…you've known about vampires, witches, and werewolves and all of that?"

Violet nodded. "Well yeah. We're supernatural. I'm a Mythological Studies major," she said and looked around the room. "What?"

"We're not supernatural." Bella said.

"Yes. We are. I read minds. You mean you can't?" Violet said raising a brow.

"You can what?" Damon said crossing over to Bella and pouring himself a drink too. This was something that Stefan had left out. He stared down at his drink, thinking.

"I read minds. I thought that you could too Bella," Violet said and when Bella shook her head, Violet tried to peer into her mind and then hit a giant wall. "Interesting…I can't read yours though."

Bella nodded. "Well, that's not surprising. Edward couldn't read my mind either," She said and then Alice and Jasper were looking at her stunned.

"You said his name," Alice murmured, and Bella took a drink of the whiskey, and winced when it burned her throat more than the brandy. "I guess I did," she said and set her glass down. She didn't hyperventilate or feel that twisted pain in her heart. Was she getting over it now?

"I'll have to research this some, but I really need to research our older brothers," Violet said and pulled out her phone when it vibrated. "Speak of the freaking devil," she said with a half laugh and answered. "Enzo! I was literally just talking about you a few minutes ago," she was silent as Enzo spoke.

"You missed class and Lexi isn't here, and I saw Stefan. Are you there with Damon?" Enzo's thick, accented voice sounded in her ears and then Damon was pulling the phone away from her ear and talking now.

"Lorenzo St John. Get your ass here," Damon commanded and then hung the phone up and handed it back to Violet. "He knows where I am," he said when Violet looked at him with an arched brow.

Stefan cleared his voice. "Violet we figured out who the brothers are. Ezra and Callum Shaw," he said and then Bella gaped at him. "Mr. Shaw is my brother?"

"It appears so," Alice said softly and looked at Stefan and smiled.

"Well…does he know about…us?" Violet said pointed a finger between her and Bella.

"I'll find out tomorrow. By the way, it's late. Get your butts in bed. School in the morning. Violet, Alice will get a room together for you," Damon said and left the parlor.

Bella sighed and drank the rest of the whiskey down and then moved to Violet. "I'm sorry that everything is a mess. I'm still in high school. I'm assuming you graduated early which is why you attend college, but I really want to talk more. After school tomorrow I just want it to be just you and me."

Violet smiled and then pulled Bella into a hug. "Sounds like a plan."

Bella smiled at her sister before going up to her bedroom. She shut the door and went to the bathroom and started the shower. She undressed and then let the hot water run over her body. She hadn't realized that her muscles were that sore. She stood under the water for a good twenty minutes before washing her hair and doing her normal shower routine. She dried off and pulled on her blue flannel pajama pants and blue tank top without putting a bra on. She brushed her teeth and the washed her face. She patted her face dry and then unwrapped her hair and shook the towel through her hair as she walked out of the bathroom into her bedroom. Damon was standing over by the fireplace and it surprised her. She let out a little gasp that had him turning to look at her.

"Damon…" she said, and he slowly walked to her.

"Bella, I know that it's been an eventful day for you. There's so many confusing things going on right now with you, but I have to let you know how I feel…" he said, his blue eyes were sincere and were searching for a response in hers.

She let the towel in her hand fall to the ground and then stepped towards him. She put a hand on his chest, feeling him shudder under her touch. Her eyes drifted from her hand up to his face, stopping at his lips. The were parted slightly and his blue eyes were swirling with hunger for her.

"Bella…" he whispered her name and stared down at her as she stepped against him. Her arms went up around his neck as her body pressed into his gently. She heard him take a sharp breath in as he felt her against him.

"Damon…just…kiss me," she said, and then his mouth covered hers gently. She parted her lips, inviting him in. He slipped his tongue inside and played, one hand gripped at her waist and the other tangled in her damp hair. She let a soft moan escape her lips and her heart jolted. The tingling in her scar was spreading through her body now. Her breathing hitched as his other hand dropped to her waist and his fingers brushed the bare skin at her waist where her shirt rode up. He pulled back to look into her eyes. His were still hungry for her, lusting for her, and hers were dilated with arousal. He stared at her for a moment and she only nodded. He moved his hands to her butt and gripped her firmly and then boosted her, forcing her to hook her legs around his waist as he kissed her again before moving her over to her bed.

He lay her down gently and then he moved over her, kissing her neck. She arched against him, her breast pressing into him. He groaned and he could smell how aroused she was. His hands went to the hem of her shirt and pushed under the material. She didn't move to stop him, so he traveled his hand up and over her bare breast, rubbing his thumb over a hard nipple. She let out another soft moan and then his mouth was on hers again as he drank in her moan and pleasure. Her hands ripped at his shirt, pulling it up and over his head. Her hands raked down his bare back now, getting a pleasured growl from him.

"Damon," she breathed his name out. She could feel how aroused he was against her thigh, and she closed her eyes. His hands were traveling down now rubbing over her hot center. It made her body tense, which made him tense too and then he was leaning up, looking down at her.

"Bella are you okay?" he asked, trying to restrain himself, and it showed in his voice.

Bella closed her eyes and willed her nerves to stop jumping around. Damon leaned all the way up now moving to the side of the bed.

"No. Wait," she said and opened her eyes when she felt his weight leave her. "I'm just…. nervous," and she felt the heat rise to her face.

He reached over and stroked her face gently. "We don't…. we don't have to have sex Bella."

She sighed and then turned her head to look at him now. He was laying on his side looking at her, one hand propped up underneath him to raise his head up to look at her, and there was a good foot between them on the bed. She slid closer to him and his arms wrapped around her now. Her head rested on his bare chest. Her heart was still racing really fast, and she knew that he could hear it too.

"It's not that I don't want to do…that. I've just never…" she trailed off.

"I know you're a virgin Bella. It's okay. I'm not going to pressure you," he said softly.

Bella leaned up now, looking down at him. She leaned down and kissed him now, her hair falling like a curtain around them. Her mouth wanted him to explore her again. She really did want this she realized. She was nervous sure, but what girl wasn't on her first time. Damon was being patient with her and so gentle and caring. She couldn't ask for someone better right? She leaned all the way up now and then she closed her eyes before she put her hands to the bottom of her shirt.

He lay a hand over hers to stop her. "You don't have to," he said softly.

Her eyes stared into his before she nodded and continued to pull her shirt off over her head. Damon hissed in a breath at the sight of her. The sight of her was beautiful. Her skin was so soft, and glowing and she moved to straddle him now. She covered his hands with hers and brought them up to cover her breast and then she leaned down and kissed him harder this time. She swooped a hand through her hair to throw it back. She danced her hips against his and he groaned as he sat up with her straddling his lap.

His mouth kissed at her throat and then over her collarbone. Her hands fisted in his hair and then she was moaning his name as he sought her breast with his mouth. "I want you," she breathed out. He had her flipped on her back now as he pulled away her pajama bottoms and panties. Heat rose to her face out of embarrassment, and she started to pull the blankets around her, but he stopped her hand.

"You're beautiful…and perfect Bella. Nothing to be embarrassed about," he said, his eyes locked on hers as he moved his hands over her body, pleasuring her. She found herself arching against him as he started driving her towards her peak. When the first climax rolled over her, he was there suddenly between her legs and was as naked as she.

Her eyes were glossed over with pleasure as she stared up into his hungry ones. "Are you sure?" he asked her again, and when she nodded, he entered her. She felt the first ripple of discomfort and then she was filled with more pleasure. He moved slowly, giving her time to adjust. Her arms wrapped around him, dragging them down his back and he began to move faster. His lips drank her moans in as he continued to pump in and out. She arched her head back, exposing her neck for him.

"Do it…" she breathed out and then he bit into her neck with ease. She moaned again as he drank, and when he reached his peak, they both collapsed into the bed. His weight on her was a comfort instead of a discomfort and she didn't want him to move, but he had to. He left her on the bed and disappeared in the bathroom. He came back a moment later and had a damp rag as he began to gently clean her up. She made a noise of protest, but he stopped her. She was radiating with happiness right now and she wasn't sure why she was so nervous about this before.

"Are you okay?" He asked after a few moments of silence as they lay in bed together, still naked.

"I think we got blood on the sheets," She said in response and he laughed. "I'm not worried about the sheets Bella. I'm worried about you." She turned her head to look into his eyes and smiled, reaching a hand up to his face. "I'm okay Damon. I…" she closed her eyes a moment to give herself a moment. When she opened her eyes, he was still watching her. "I don't know what this means. I'm not sure why, but I just knew somehow that it was the right moment," she whispered.

He nodded understanding and then tilted her head to the side and saw the two puncture marks. "Here," he said and then he flicked his fangs over his wrist and then offered his wrist to her. "To make the marks heal," he said and then she nodded and hesitantly put her mouth to his wrist and drank. She was sure that it would gross her out because she didn't care for the smell of blood. The holes closed and he pulled his wrist away. He then kissed her lips softly. He started to get up, but she stopped him.

"Just…stay," she said, and he nodded and settled back. She nuzzled into him and soon she dropped off into a slumber. He drew lazy circles up and down her back as he felt her body fully relax into his.
