Esther was gone. Klaus had sent her a text--thoughtful of him--letting her know that everything was over. Finn was still around and Klaus had warned her about Mikael, but she wasn't worried. She didn't need to be, she'd be long gone before Mikael or Finn thought about looking for her. She sighed softly, tucking the money into her bag. She had cleaned out her accounts that Elijah had set up.
She'd promised to stay around until Esther was dealt with. Licking her lips she looked at the time once more. She'd texted Gia almost an hour ago for her to stop by the house. She was one of the vampires that Elijah had asked her to allow into the house. Elijah trusted her, and for right now that was enough for her.
She ran her fingers over the letter against the table. It was the right thing to do. For once she wasn't going to be selfish. For once she was going to do something for someone else, despite what she really wanted.
Elijah
I knew I could not do this in person. Nadia told me once that I needed to let you go. I think she was right. It's been 500 years. I love you, I always will, but you can have something different. Something new and pure. Something we never had. Thank you for believing in me when no one else would. For giving me a chance when no one else would. I know you will want to come after me, but I am begging you: don't. I don't want to hurt you, and that's all I know how to do. I am damaged beyond repair, and this time you can not fix it.
Devils don't fly, but I tried for you.
Yours always,
Katerina.
The sound of the doorbell had her lifting her head. She let out a breath, and then grabbed her bag. Placing the strap over her shoulder, she went to the door. Opening it, she raked Gia over with a look.
"About time. Did you get lost?"
