Summary
Damon Salvatore died saving his friends—or so they thought.
Trapped with Bonnie as the supernatural purgatory known as the Other Side collapsed, Damon vanished. Elena grieved him… until she couldn’t anymore. In an act of self-preservation, she had every good memory of him erased.
She let herself forget the love. The laughter. The life they’d started to build.
But Damon didn’t stay dead. When he returns, broken and alive, Elena refuses to see him. Refuses to remember him. Refuses to speak his name.
And then she disappeared without a word to anyone.
Left behind and hollowed out, Damon begins to rebuild with the help of those who never gave up on him—Stefan, Bonnie, Caroline, Ric, and Jo. Slowly, painfully, something like family forms around the wreckage.
And then, Elena comes back.
Hollow is a story of grief, abandonment, found family, and the long road back to love when everything you had has already been forgotten.
