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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRD2Uhb8iDg
"Hello, Katherine. Klaus sends his regards," he said, as he stabbed her in the middle of her chest.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2L97ZxwAS
"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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1UTsshNHv
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8UK36j1xDI
Damon through the werewolf against a wall, ripped his heart out, and dropped it before racing over to his sire.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL29kfZ10kn
He knelt down beside her and pulled the dagger out, tossing it to the floor, and looked down at her.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFhKGA9e2oY
As her wound healed, he helped her up as he got to his own feet.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNYnTJQIQUM
"How are you feeling?" he asked.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOhlE3Gv1Xs
"Like I just got vervained."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW57IxHoxkM
He saw that she didn't look good.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO9nVyB7XTi
"Katherine, look at me."671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6m16Dvuc2n
She tried to do as he said.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP6yecVFfnm
"Focus, Kat," he said, for once in a long time, using his nickname for her.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfrnD8b12Z
"Damon," she said.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkxXhGBtXN3
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.671Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPE1dePTByR
"I'll be fine," she assured them, as she slowly sat up.
