DPOV
I told Elena and Alaric to meet me at my house a few hours before the party. Caroline was already there setting up, and Tyler was with her. Guess I would have to get this over with before the festivities begin.
"Damon what is this about? Did you find Stefan?" Elena asked. Everyone was in the parlor.
"No this has nothing to do with Stefan. I have to tell you something and I need you all to shut up and listen and don't interrupt me." I glared at all of them. This was going to be hard enough to explain without everyone putting in their two sense. They were all quiet. I took a deep breath. You all know I was in the military. It was a year before I met Katherine. I met a woman named Annalee. Long story short we" I smirked. "'Hooked up'. I didn't think twice about her when I left. I got leave and came back to Mystic Falls, where you all know the story there. After I was changed I had just left Stefan, and was traveling feeling sorry for myself.
FLASHBACK
Walking out of the inn where I was staying at, I went to look for my next meal. I had been here recently, before I turned. But the city didn't seem to notice me or my change. Walking down one street that was completely empty I saw a young woman walking in the other direction. With my vampire speed I flashed and was in front of her in an instance. I recognized her. Annalee. Oh, well dinner time. I was about to attack when I saw the tiny child she carried in her arms. She finally saw my face and was scared then surprised, then angry.
"Damon Salvatore!" she yelled.
"Annalee, fancy meeting you here." I said
"Where have you been? I've sent messages to you in Mystic Falls. Have you received none of them? "She asked.
"No. I've received them, I just didn't care enough to read them." I said blatantly." What did they regard?"
"This is your child Damon. I was disowned by my parents. I live with friends now and they refuse to continue to help me now. We are all alone. And we are your responsibility now that you know." She said angry again.
"That can't be possible. We were only together once. It must have been another man that you gave yourself to that's fathered this child." Trying not to believe it.
"There were no other men, just you." She spat. Then the child started crying and opened her eyes. There staring back at me were my eyes. Same ice blue. Now that I looked at her other features stuck out at me. Her ears and her mouth identical to mine. But what could I do. I was damned to walk eternity as a vampire. Waiting until someday the love of my life could get out of the tomb she was trapped in. It started to drizzle and I took my jacket off and draped it over the two.
"Come, I'm staying at the inn in town. Stay with me until we find more suitable accommodations." She agreed and followed me to my inn. I excused myself when they were inside. If I was going to be around Annalee and our daughter I needed to feed. I found an unsuspecting man walking home. And finished him with ease. I hurried back to the inn. I found my daughter asleep in my bed, and Annalee sitting in a chair in a corner crying.
"What is her name?" I asked quietly. Surprised to see me return she jumps a little.
"Isabella Marie Salvatore." I smiled. Isabella my daughter. I was in no position to be a father, but I couldn't just abandon her either.
"I cannot stay with you and raise her. I have other things that need to be done. But I will find you a house, and fill it with whatever you may need." Nothing a little compulsion won't fix.
"So you will take care of us, without being here?" she looked down.
"I cannot be a father. I would be lousy at the job." I wasn't lying.
"Fine then, I needs a house, a maid, and money. We both need clothing, and food." She must have been very spoiled before I came along.
"alright." The next day I compelled some people out of their house, then killed them. After I compelled everyone in town to give them everything they could ever need without hesitation. After everything was situated I left. Only to come back and visit once a year. "
END OF FLASHBACK
"When I came back in 1880 to check in, Annalee had become ill and so had Isabella. By the time I reached them Annalee had died, and Isabella had only days left from the look of her. I fed her my blood much to her dismay, but she didn't get better as I expected her to. In one of my irrational moments, I decided to change her when she wasn't getting better. When she awoke, she was so angry at me for taking away her choice. But what she didn't know was that I couldn't lose her. I hated Stefan, my father was dead, and the woman I loved was still trapped in a tomb. She was the only thing I had left. "
"I got over it eventually." Bella said smile on her face. Everyone turned to face her. Their faces in shock. Elena shook her head back and forth trying to get it through her head.
"So you have a daughter?" she looked hurt.
"No way this is crap!" Caroline interrupted.
"It's true all of it. I asked Daddy to give me other parents. For a long time I resented him. I hated him for what he did to me. So I've only ever lived here once in my life. When Uncle Stefan took care of me. I know now that my father loves me, and he only did it to protect me. As far apart as we've been, I love him too. He's my father." She smiled at me.
"Well then, Isabella, this is Elena, Blondie, Wolfie, and Rick." I smiled as I pointed them out. She giggled at my nicknames.
"Bella please, nice to meet you." Everyone nodded too confused to say anything.
