𝐀𝐅𝐓𝐄𝐑 𝐆𝐋𝐀𝐍𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐀𝐑𝐎𝐔𝐍𝐃 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐎𝐎𝐌 𝐒𝐋𝐎𝐖𝐋𝐘 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐂𝐀𝐔𝐓𝐈𝐎𝐔𝐒𝐋𝐘, Amaryllis brought her left hand into the hand of The Original Vampire, allowing him to slowly pull her up to stand.
Although Elijah had been standing so close to the couch, the only way she could stand was with her body just about pressed up against his.
And with quite literally feeling the man's body heat drifting off of her, Amaryllis only barely was able to maintain eye contact with the vampire.
However, he never did let go of her hand as he brought it to his lips, leaving a small kiss on the back of it as he looked Amaryllis directly in the eye.
The young alien couldn't lie and say her heart didn't jump and a tear didn't run down her leg, the moment Elijah's lips met her skin.
"I-ouu-" Amaryllis tried to speak against his question, but she was quickly thrown off as he turned her wrist around to kiss at her radial artery. "-uhm, I..."
She could only let out a low breath, taking a deep shuddered breath as he continued to hold her wrist near his mouth, his eyes continuously shifting from his vampiric form to the human.
And seeing the girl completely bewildered, Elijah couldn't help but let out a deep huff-like chuckle whilst still looking her in the eye, before he looked away towards the other three in the room.
"We have a long journey ahead of us," He spoke as he glanced from Elena to Rose, never moving Amaryllis's wrist from his face. "I'll be taking the doppelgänger and the offering."
However hearing his words, Amaryllis was quickly unbroken from her stupor.
"taking," She muttered lowly as she started to realize what the man had said, causing her to look up at him shocked. "taking us where?"
Only letting out another chuckle, Elijah only thought of her as a struggling puppy rather than the dangerous being she unknowingly was.
However, on the other side of the couch, Elena was begging someone as well.
"Please, don't let him take me." She begged Rose beginning to stand up from the couch, however, the vampire only moved away from her.
"Don't worry Sæta, I-" Elijah spoke to Amaryllis running his hand over her straightened hair, however, that was until his eyes landed on the hand holding her dress. "your dress...?"
