my heart can't possibly break when it wasn't even whole to start with [for Damon]
"You are not my family. You are not my sister. You are nothing."
The haunting words, the cruel dismissal, followed Rebekah back from the darkness where she had lingered with the hopes of never waking up. How was she supposed to face the world now? She had no one and nothing. She had spent her entire life at Nik's side, loving and hating him with equal measure, she had been the one to stay and, in the end, it hadn't meant anything to him at all.
For a moment she stayed where she was face down on the floor, her eyes clenched tightly shut as she tried to will herself back to the Other Side. As though somehow she could just snuff out her entire existence but praying hard enough to the spirits to listen. Maybe her mother would hear her and just finally put her out of her misery.
But there was no answer or escape as she finally shifted onto her side with a hoarse little groan. The scent of Elena's drying blood clogged her senses, making her want to gag as she completed the move by rolling onto her back. She knew Nik was gone though she didn't know for how long. There would be no waiting for him this time. She had seen the finality of his decision in his eyes seconds before he had snapped her neck.
He meant it this time. He was done with her and he would expect her to be gone by the time he came back.
Fighting back a fresh wave of tears, she struggled to a sitting position as she looked at the empty doorway of what was supposed to be their home. She suddenly wanted to rip it apart with her bare hands. She wanted to destroy every inch of the building so he had nothing either but it wouldn't do her any good.
Maybe she would just wait for him to get back and then she would see if he would finish the job this time.
