.

She finally plucked up the courage to go on, "It's impossible to hide what should come." She made up her mind, walked straight over, stood in front of Elijah, and stood in front of Elijah for half a minute before Elijah realized that she was waiting for his order.

"sit--"

She sat down neatly, she didn't look at anyone, she only looked at the carpet under her feet, with a resigned expression on her face.

Seeing her like this, Elijah felt like sitting on pins and needles, and almost wanted to walk away.

"These days, you have suffered. I can't imagine that you are alone in the ancient tomb." Looking at the awkward atmosphere, Elena had no choice but to say.

"..." Katherine raised her head when she heard the words, looked at Elena, then at Elijah, she remembered that Elijah took great care of Elena, even though she hated Elena, but she was frightened by Elijah's power, she had to calm down and respond well she.

She cleared her throat, "Actually, I'm not as afraid of being alone as you think."

"How could it be? For three years and eight months, you stayed alone in the ancient tomb... If it were me, uh, I wouldn't even dare to imagine it."

"I'm different from you Elena. You have classmates, good friends, and boyfriends who love you. I don't. I've always been alone. I've long been used to loneliness."

Her words hurt Elijah's heart, and he cut her off. "No one gets used to being alone."

"Yes," she nodded respectfully, "You are right, I just learned to endure loneliness."

shame.

A shame that will never wash away.

She had to answer Elena's words, she had to go along with Elijah's.

She lost all the abilities of a vampire, and the shame at this moment will be eternal, and she will never get a chance to come back.

Elijah looked at her deeply, she sat obediently next to him, with her hands on her knees, her back slightly arched, like a cat preparing for battle, her shoulders were also tightened, probably she was so nervous that she was about to die. Elijah suddenly hated her identity very much. In front of him, she was always like a primary school student staying beside the principal. She was embarrassed and felt wronged, but she dared not be disobedient.

Where did the woman with a bright face, playing with him in the garden and running in the sun go?

Where is the woman who told him "If we don't believe in love, why are we alive?"

God, what happened to her?

He had to find out what his two precious brothers had done to her.

Elijah took a breath, trying to look as harmless as possible, "Katerina, tell me what they did to you."

"Uh... something... something I'm used to." Katherine considered the answer slyly and cautiously, she was never so naive as to think that Elijah would do her justice. Klaus and Kol are his brothers after all.He was just asking questions as usual, so as to add bricks and tiles to the image of a good man he had created.

"What's the matter?" Elena's sympathetic eyes came again, and she remembered the blood all over her body, and she helped her change her clothes.

"Hurt." Katherine couldn't help but want to give her a blank stare, the last thing she needed was sympathy.

"Excuse me," Katherine suppressed all unhappiness and asked Elijah, "Can I go back to my room?"

What else can he say.

Watching her back walking towards the stairs, Elijah smiled wryly, "I should go too."

"Don't forget about Halloween." Elena watched the interaction between Elijah and Katherine, and she could almost hear Elijah's heart breaking.

As soon as Elijah left, Elena stopped Katherine on the stairs.

Katherine looked at Elena's arm on the banister. It was exactly like hers, only much stronger.

In a fight with her, she couldn't guarantee that she would win.

What's more, there are endless backers behind Elena: Stefan, Damon, Elijah, Bonnie, Caroline...

Temperament depends on strength.

She could only swallow her anger, just like a human being, until she died.

"I don't want to cause trouble, Elena, I just want to go back to my room. If you hate me, I can stay out forever."

Elena was amazed by Katherine being so humble.

But Elena is Elena, and what she wants to say must be said.She said, "Katherine, I didn't want to be nosy. But I'm afraid you'll make Elijah very sad if you're so afraid of him."

Katherine looked at Elena in bewilderment, and sneered, "Then how can he be happy? Take off my skin and make it a door stepping mat?"

"He never intended to hurt you!"

"Yes, he just locked me in the ancient tomb and starved. You are not so forgetful, are you? That time, the great Elena, you gave me half a cup of blood!"

Elena blocked the stairs and prevented her from passing, "But he didn't hurt you with his own hands. He loves you."

Katherine put her hands on her hips and said coldly, "Love? No one in this world loves me except myself. Wrong! If I had a choice, I wouldn't love me either."

"Elijah has always loved you, he—"

"Forget it, Elena. I have resigned myself to my fate. I am not you. We look the same, but I am not as lucky as you. Klaus treats you with courtesy, and Esther treats you as a guest, but I, They all used the most vicious methods on me."

"I know you have suffered a lot."

"Then get out of the way." Katherine waved her hand angrily.

"..." Elena let go of the hand blocking the stairs, but she refused to give up and followed behind Katherine, even though she slammed the door shut.She was still chasing after the door and shouting, "500 years ago, Klaus wanted to use you as a sacrifice, but Elijah fell in love with you, he didn't want you to die, and he worked so hard to find you a bottle that can bring you back to life potion of yours...but you escaped Klaus in your own way—"

"Yes! I hanged myself," Katherine opened the door, staring at her with fiery eyes: "Prove to me that what you said is true!"

"Come with me!" Elena pulled Katherine's wrist, "If I remember correctly, the bottle of potion is still in this house. The situation was so sudden that Elijah didn't have time to take the bottle away."

Stefan and Damon had already heard their conversation, and Damon took the bottle out and put it in Katherine's hand.

Katherine looked at the bottle and suddenly trembled and burst into tears.

The heavy white granite, the ancient style, the rough and bold carving process, the wear and tear that appeared with the passage of time...

Yes, it is something from that era, which cannot be faked.

She closed the door and couldn't stand still crying.

It was a bottle of medicine that could change her fate, which was missed by herself.

If she drank this bottle of medicine at that time, then she was still a human being, loved, hated, and lived for a short time, and then died when she was damned, clean and normal, without all the pain and unbearableness that followed.

But her self-assertion caused her to miss the bottle of medicine, causing her to prolong her pain endlessly.

If she had died when she deserved it, there would have been no such thing as hell.

No vampire Stefan, no vampire Damon, no betrayed lover and three years and eight months of torment.

Everything is just because she rebelled against fate, escaped death, and didn't die when she deserved to die.

Her sobs cut through Stefan's heart like a knife.

Damon didn't say a word either.

Katherine's tears were one of the strangest things to them.She never cried.It was as if she was born without tear ducts.

Elena pushed the door open and walked in.

"So it's true that Elijah loves you."

"You're so persistent." Katherine wiped away her tears.

"I said, no one in this world loves me. Because I should not exist. The person Elijah loves is Tatia, not me." Katherine said lightly, "I am like a telescope to Elijah, He looked through the binoculars and saw Tatia."

"No, it's not fair for you to say that, Damon and Stefan once loved you." Elena didn't like Katherine who was vicious and arrogant, but she didn't like her who was sad and self-pitying even more.

"Elena. Don't you understand?" After Katherine cried, she calmed down completely. She counted their names with her fingers, "Stefan, Damon, and you. Elena, my only meaning to you three It is to guide you to get acquainted. You know each other through me, do you understand? My role is still the telescope.”

"You—" While Elena was still trying to refute her words, Katherine hurried
