It was a beautiful day, as Katherine Pierce walked into her residential home. And that's when she sensed someone else. She was standing by the threshold to the living room, when she turned around.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdLxDK1SviW
"Hello, Katherine. Klaus sends his regards," he said, as he stabbed her in the middle of her chest.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbx01a9VGwY
"James," she said in shock. And then, as a scent wafted over her and she heard Damon yell, "Katherine!", she was barely able to say, "Come in," inviting him inside.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCm4VKKVX1V
As Damon through James away from her, she staggered back once before losing her balance. And then, as she lay on her back, she knew the dagger had vervain on it.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3S8jPFT3sK
Damon through the werewolf against a wall, ripped his heart out, and dropped it before racing over to his sire.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPojshmuIVl
He knelt down beside her and pulled the dagger out, tossing it to the floor, and looked down at her.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaTCYKWXwa
As her wound healed, he helped her up as he got to his own feet.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYm4bP3hl4N
"How are you feeling?" he asked.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0POIclA6k
"Like I just got vervained."641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2vN51Wtcb
He saw that she didn't look good.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw0noYSXr6h
"Katherine, look at me."641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcVndiE96V
She tried to do as he said.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX9BUcW2cU
"Focus, Kat," he said, for once in a long time, using his nickname for her.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvIMroC2eDe
"Damon," she said.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctzNQkX4GJ
As she collapsed, he caught her from hitting the floor with a hand between her shoulder blades, an arm holding her up. Then he left the house to go home with her in his arms, knowing she would be okay once the vervain was out of her system. Blood would help, but not his. It would give her more vervain, since he mixed a little of vervain with alcohol every day and night. She needed someone else's. Maybe Elena would be willing.
Later, she awoke after Elena had given her some of her blood. Katherine could see that she was on the couch at the boarding house with Elena and Damon by the couch with worried faces.641Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZO2k8UbcPN
"I'll be fine," she assured them, as she slowly sat up.
