'Vampire Diaries' season 7 spoilers: Damon tortures another Heretic, Lily gets back at Damon in episode 3 'Age of Innocence'

In this week's episode of "The Vampire Diaries" season 7, Stefan and Damon will get a taste of Lily's seething wrath. The installment, which is titled "Age of Innocence," will have the Salvatore matriarch show that nobody messes with her darling Heretics.

After killing Malcolm, Damon is set out to kill another Heretics member Oscar, which, needless to say, enrages Lily. "You will not lay hand on another member of my family," Lily told Damon, who is in the middle of doing just that, in the promo.

In the same teaser clip for the upcoming "The Vampire Diaries" season 7 episode, it is revealed that Lily has hidden Elena's body and Damon is determined to kill every Heretic member there is just to get it back. However, the death of more Heretic members means warfare and this is what a captured Caroline wants Stefan to prevent from happening.

As it turns out, Damon, Bonnie and Alaric are trying to figure out a way to gain leverage on Lily. They stumble upon the phoenix stone, which, according to one of Lily's beloved Heretic, is wanted by a lot of people. "You mess with it, you end up dead," Oscar warns a bloodthirsty Damon.

However, Damon emphasized he does not concern himself with the stone, which Bonnie suggests should be destroyed. But before they could do so, Damon will apparently spend some time to rearrange the bones in the body of the unfortunate Heretic member in front of him.

Meanwhile, the upcoming "The Vampire Diaries" season 7 episode also hints that Caroline and Stefan will learn shocking details about the past. The former will discover a secret about Valerie while the latter will get to know more about his past self from his rampaging mother herself.

"The Vampire Diaries" season 7 episode 3 "Age of Innocence" airs Oct. 22 on The CW.
