Chapter 6 Monster Revealed

Damon yawned as he woke up, looking down to see Delena and Elena sleeping peacefully seguinte to him. He let a smile cruz his features. He was so happy that his family was safe. He wouldn't let anything happen to them ever again. Slowly, he got out of cama as quietly as possible and winced when a burning sensation on his wrist grabbed his attention. He looked down and saw the mark Klaus left there had still not healed. It looked like to be permanently engraved into his skin. He groaned, pulling out a long sleeved camisa and some black pants. He didn't want Elena to pergunta him about the burn and be worried so he was going to hide it for now until he could find away to get rid of it.

He descended down the stairs, grabbing a cup and setting it on the mesa, tabela as he made some coffee. He casually flipped through the newspaper while he waited for the coffee to finish. He let his mind wander far away from where he was at, thinking about Klaus and if he really finished him off. He doubted it though. He knew that Klaus would probably still be alive since he is the oldest vampire among them. He just needed to find away to kill him.

The sizzling of the coffee pot caught his attention and he quickly took it off the coffee maker and poured some into a cup, taking a small sip and setting it on the table.

His ears perked up at the sound of shuffling feet from upstairs and knew that Elena and Delena were awake. He looked up as Elena strode down the stairs with a sleepy Delena nestled in her arms. "Morning." she pecked him on the cheek lightly as she sat Delena down in her high chair.

Damon smirked as Elena finished strapping Delena in and wrapped his arms around her body, pulling her closer to his chest. "How'd my kitten sleep? Hm?"

"I slept good." Elena turned around and smiled up at Damon as their lips met in a fiery wave of passion. She pulled away quickly, much to Damon's distaste.

He cast her a azedar, azedo glare. "You seriously amor to torture me don't you?"

Elena giggled, opening the fridge and pulling out some eggs. "Yes I do. One of my favorito pastimes."

Damon growled, glaring at her. "So help you Elena if Delena wasn't in this room-"

"Or what Damon?" Elena put her hands on her hips, waiting for Damon's reply. "You'd F-U-C-K me so bad that I wouldn't be able to walk? We all know who is in charge of that part of our relationship and it most certainly isn't you!"

"We'll see about that tonight you naughty little vixen." Damon sneered as he kissed her forehead softly.

Elena smiled, tilting her head back as Damon trailed kisses down her throat and to her chest.

"Ew gross!"

Damon rolled his eyes as he reluctantly pushed himself away from Elena and walked over to Delena who had her hands over her eyes. "That wasn't gross. It's what humans do all the time to one another."

Delena uncovered her eyes and smiled up at him. "Then why you do it? You hate humans."

"I have a few that are exceptions." Damon replied while beijar her on the cheek. "They're not so bad."

Elena smiled, cracking eggs into a bowl and stirring them up. Damon walked over to her and leaned against the fridge. "So what do you want to do today?"

Elena turned around and kissed him softly. "Anything you want, except that." Elena glared at Damon's dirty thoughts that were no doubt going through his head.

Damon gave her a very convincing innocent look. "Elena, do you honestly think of me that lowly?"

"Yes." Elena replied, setting the eggs on the stove and turning it on. Damon watched as she mixed the gooey yellow yolk up, making a disgusted face.

"What are you making?"

"Scrambled eggs." she replied while looking up at him with a glare. "Why?"

Damon smirked. "But you suck at cooking."

"Oh right, and I suppose you are an excellent cook." she rolled her eyes sarcastically while taking the cooked eggs off of the stove.

Damon winked his eyes at her. "Oh you know I am. You forget that I have years of experience with this stuff."

Elena finished putting a steaming pile of eggs on a plate and set them infront of Delena. "There you go sweetie." She turned back to Damon. "Then amaze me."

He smirked. "With pleasure."

He walked over to fridge and opened it, reaching for the carton of leite but then froze as a searing pain grappled him. Damon hissed in pain, holding his head with both hands as the pain intensified. Elena quickly ran to Damon's side, looking at him with concern laced in her eyes. "Damon what's wrong?"

"There's..there's something in my head. I can't-I can't-" Damon let out a howling scream of pain before he fell to the floor.

"Damon!" Elena screamed as she shook him desperately, trying to get him to wake up.

"Momma, why Daddy laying on the floor?"

Elena looked over to Delena who had witnessed the whole thing. She shook her head, tears sparkling in her eyes. "I don't know sweetie." She turned back to Damon to see that he was starting to wake up. "Damon?"

His crystal blue eyes shot open and he got up, looking at Elena. She gasped when she saw how cold and emotionless his eyes were. They were void of any emotion, completely cold. "Damon what happened to you?"

Elena let out a scream of pain as Damon's hand connected with her cheek, hard. "Shut the hell up you stupid whore!"

Damon stood up and walked away, leaving his crying and shocked wife on the floor. "What happened to you Damon? What did that headache do to you?"

In a flash, Damon had Elena por the throat, slowly closing her airway up until she could no longer breathe. "I thought I told you to shut up? I don't like repeating myself."

Elena clawed at his arms and struggled to get free. Her lungs burned and her brain was screaming at her. She never felt this much pain in her entire life. "I'm sorry." she choked out, tears falling freely down her face,

Damon smirked cruelly as he threw Elena into the wall, hearing her blood curling scream as she of her bones snapped under the intense pressure. "That'll teach you to pergunta me. Haven't you realized that I'm a vampire and that I don't care about anyone? I was foolish to think that I needed a family. All I need is myself."

Elena watched through tear streaked eyes as Damon walked away, confusion sweeping over her like a nuvem that wouldn't go away. "Damon what happened to you?" Elena sobbed, putting her face in her hands.

Delena watched her mother with confused eyes. Why did her daddy hit her? Why was he atuação like this? After a few minutes, Elena slowly got up, wincing from the broken bones. Tears still clung to her face while she walked over to Delena and took her out of her highchair, setting her unfinished plate of eggs on the table. She quickly set Delena down on the floor and staggered over to the couch, motioning for Delena to cadastrar-se her. Delena walked over to Elena, looking at her tear streaked face as she picked the small toddler up and held her in her arms. "Listen to me very carefully Delena." Delena looked up at her mother, seeing the sadness falling from her once happy filled chocolate eyes. "I don't want you to go around Daddy for awhile. Stay as far away from him and don't talk to him no matter what. He's not being himself and I don't want him to hurt you like he did Mommy. Do you understand?"

Delena nodded, beijar Elena's cheek where a bruise was beginning to form. "Don't cry Momma. Daddy will be nice to us again."

A choked sob broke through Elena's lips as she stared at the innocent child sitting seguinte to her. "I hope you are right."
