Elena is crying while asking for some promises and still questioning her heart that why the hell her heart wants her to marry Elijah she then says while wiping her tears "i want you to promise me that you will behave so nicely with me in front of my mother like aunt Alice and my rest of the family and friends you will never let them know what kind of relationship we'll share "
she continues "we'll behave as husband wife in front of my friends and family so that they will be relieved to know that i am happy . i know you hate me and i have given myself to you so you will be able to do or make me do everything you want after marriage and i will do as you'll say but Promise me that you won't put restrictions on me like i have completed my second year(graduation)so it doesn't mean my connection with my friends are broken i will go to meet them other wise i will do what you want"
she says without letting him say a word "i won't leave mystic falls ever do you get it i will never go anywhere promise me you'll never force me to leave mystic falls"
she then says again "and the main thing,i wont ask you for your love i will need only your honesty Elijah . i hate liars Elijah Promise me you'll never lie to me you'll be true to me about everything you have suffered in your past you'll be true to me about the reason that why do you hate me so much even i didn't hurt you even once . I know i am sounding like a wife but a wife asks for more 1000 thing but i will want these only. Marrying you would be the biggest mistake of my life as i will be serving myself to you but i can't back out it is what my heart wants promise me will you at least keep these little demands of me except these i will do as you say "
He keeps looking at her muted but then says "You have my word,Elena" she nods and is about to leave but he holds her wrist and pulls her towards him and pins her to a tree and slowly leans towards her lips she is on the most uncomfortable and awkward mode but can't do anything he is so close to her lips but then he heads up a little and says in her ear "you can't just tolerate me being so close to you now how will you be able to tolerate me after marriage when i will have rights on you and your body you won't be able to stop me. you can stop me now but not then how will you adjust then how will you share a bed and make out with the person you hate the most you didn't ask for a promise about it Elena Tell me how ? Husband and Wife doesn't have only a relation of love they also have physical relations and i don't think so to keep that relation love is needed right ?
she is quiet and Elijah is determined that after this she will never marry her but then she says "i know Elijah you want me to say NO for this marriage that is why you are saying this crap but apart from your crappy trick if it is all about physical relations and sharing a bed with you then i will .. i will do um ..yes i will do it because it is me who is committing to this marriage for her own heart's will in spite of your warning that you can only hurt me so it will be my decision and because of me you'll have all the rights. you are right love is not needed for that but at the same time love is needed for everything i didn't ask for a promise about physical relations between us because i will not be able to stop you for not touching me because it will be your right after marriage but hurting my friends and family by telling them truth about our compromising marriage will never be your right, lying to me will never be your right, forcing me to leave the town where my family is will never be your right so i asked for those promises which will never be your right but as a wife i will be completely yours you'll have right on me i can't just stop you from those rights because it is not my right that is why i didn't ask for promise for our physical relations do you get that now , can i leave " she feels uncomfortable about this and leaves from there with teary eyes Elijah kinda feels bad but then her face of KATERINA makes him hate her.
Elijah is worried and says "I have promised my honesty to her but how will be open to her about my past how will be open to her about the reason why i hate her so much How ?"
he is tensed about all the marriage stuff and says to himself again "girls are all same they just need our honesty but don't give theirs . they always lie but Will Elena be honest with me or she will be the next KATERINA with me the selfish , the liar i hope not . i hope she would be different from her " Elijah sees a lake and goes there and sits . he sees his reflection of himself in water and asks to himself "This girl Elena is marrying me because her heart wants it knowing that i hate her she is marrying me for Alice's happiness , she is marrying me for Mother's faith and happiness but in the middle of this will she get her own happiness or will i be able to give her happiness i know i wont be , i know i wont give her love i know i will make her regret for following her heart and she knows that all too but in spite of this too she is marrying me and still hoping that i can be mend . strange ?" Elijah is again fighting with his thoughts but then a flashback of his cruel past clicks to his mind
Flashback starts
"London" ... In 2012, Elijah is walking in a garden with katerina who is known as Katherine too he is holding her hands and they both shares an epic eye lock then she kisses hims so passionately. They both smiles seeing him Katherine says "Promise me this is forever, Elijah"
He replies and caresses her face "i Promise you , we'll be together always and forever a relationship that is built on honesty , trust can never be broken Katerina we will never be apart "
Her smile fades and she doesn't look into his eyes and excuses him
after some time in flashback it is night almost 10:00 pm Elijah is in his room happy and cheerful as he had proposed Katerina for marriage 2 days ago and she accepted so the preparations are going on so well which makes him even more happy he lays on his bed seeing Katerina's pic and kisses him at the same time misses him so decides to go to meet as her house is right beside his house so he comes out of his big mansion and enters to the next mansion which is of Katerina's . the hall of her house is dark he doesn't open the light as he just wants to see her he goes near his room and sees her rooms some lights open he gets happy that she is awake but then he opens the door and gets a shock , biggest shock of his life he finds Katerina with a boy she is making out with him and saying him"i love you baby but i am marrying him for money but i promise you i will always love you we will get all the luxries of life i am using him don't worry i will be yours forever and we will be together forever"
but then she sees him and gets up and covers his body and tries to explain him but he is heartbroken and rushes to his home in anger when he enters his house Rebekah is standing with two tux asking which one is better but he throws both of them and goes to his room in anger Rebekah is worried but then Katerina comes inside with very less clothes and hair messed up Rebekah understands and slaps her while Kol and Klaus are stunned to see this Finn goes to tell Esther and Mikeal about this Elijah in his room crying his heart out and breaking all the things that is kept his room for decorations as marriage was going to happen right after this day he drinks the bottle of wine and says "Girls are so bad they are so selfish i will never ever love any other woman they are all so heartless they don't care about feelings nobody care about nobility and modesty nowadays and i think if people don't care about these qualities i shouldn't have these so that i won't be used again
