IT HAD BEEN a long time since the arrival of the Mikaelsons, years had passed as they were living peacefully in the castle of the Count de Martel with no longer the fear of being on the run from their father, but that didn't mean there wouldn't come a day when they would, and they needed to be prepared for that. They needed to be prepared for the worst.
Not long after Lucien had become a vampire, Aurora soon discovered what the Mikaelsons were. Regardless of this revelation, Aurora de Martel was in love with Klaus all the same and wished to become a vampire herself so that she and Klaus could be together forever. She got her wish when she tricked Rebekah to give her blood.
Meanwhile, Evelyn and Lucien's love had grown more and more as the two were finally free to do like they wanted to. They desired to feel close to the other, even if it was just a presence that they felt through a hand held, a voice heard, or a smile seen. Lucien finally found someone he belonged to as if the missing pieces now fitted together. It felt like he had known Evelyn his whole life, but also as if he had loved her before they had even met, maybe another time, a different place... some other existence. He loved her and wanted to be with her forever just as she wanted to be with him.
Evelyn enjoyed the life she had been given and let go of her fears. She didn't know what it was like to love someone, and it had been hard for her to let herself feel those things because she was broken inside, but she dared to love Lucien with everything she had. She got under his skin, made him unsteady as they tried new things while he made her question everything she had ever believed about love.
They were crazy in love and even when they had gone slow though everything together, it was patient, soft, an everlasting feeling of forever that made their undead hearts beat faster.
