Alaric had invited Elena’s doctor into his house and gave her a cup of tea, though she could use something stronger.
“I’ve never seen anything like that” she said trembling.
Jenna, invisible to both Alaric and the doctor, was sitting on the dresser and rolled her eyes.
“What did the ghost look like?” Ric asked.
“Dark blonde hair, green eyes. She looked pretty” the doctor said.
Jenna smirked.
The doctor noticed a picture.
“Wait, can I see that picture?” she asked. Ric gave her a picture with Elena, Jeremy and Jenna. The doctor pointed at Jenna. “That’s her. That’s the ghost I saw”
“Jenna?” Alaric said confused.
“Is that her name?” the doctor asked. Ric nodded. “She was my girlfriend”
“What happened?” the doctor asked.
“She was murdered” Ric answered.
“Oh” the doctor said. “I’m sorry”
“Yeah” Ric said.
“What the hell, Ric? Why would you bring that up?” Jenna asked frustrated.
“I should go” the doctor said. “Thanks for the tea, Mr. Saltzman”
“It’s Alaric” Ric insisted.
“Alaric” the doctor said. She reached out her hand. “I’m Meredith Fell”
Ric shook her hand. “Nice to meet you, Meredith”
“I’ve never seen anything like that” she said trembling.

I could kick myself. Why the hell had I done it? Like the stupid thing was any use to me anyway. Of course I knew why I had done it: boredom and a source of entertainment. These two things were precisely the reason why I had done many of the things I had done in my 1000 years of existence.
Now I was running from werewolves. You could say I was on their "most wanted list" which was definitely not a good thing. Werewolves hunted in packs and are a very loyal species. It was impossible to know how much of them were after me. Of course I was no stranger to being on the run which is why I never really had any real relationships. Before this…well that was a very long story indeed…
