You tried to save Elena from Rose and Tyler. She was a pawn for the Original vampire everyone talks about. You had heard of him once, but never thought you would meet him so soon…

“Well then, two humans. That’s a bonus, Rose?” a calm male voice sounded behind you as he entered the room.

The man wasn’t looking at Elena. He was looking at you, straight into your eyes. He felt a strange pull. A human and a vampire. Interesting. He wanted to get to know you better. You tensed, urging Elena to run to Stefan.

You turned around. The Original was already standing right in front of you, face to face. He leaned toward your neck and inhaled your sweet scent. A faint smile touched his lips when he heard your heartbeat. It only confirmed his theory that the Salvatore’s younger sister was a half-breed. His gaze softened as he looked at you, almost wistfully. He noticed your fangs.

You intrigued the Original far more than Elena.

“Hello there.”
