"I have lived for centuries," Elijah murmured, his fingers brushing against hers, hesitant, reverent. "And yet, knowing you has undone me in ways I cannot begin to comprehend." Lana's breath caught. "Why?" He met her eyes, something raw breaking through his composure. "Because you make me wish to be worthy of you...and I fear I never will be."

She was the Salvatore they never spoke of, Alicia, twin to Stefan. In 1864, she tried to save the woman they both loved and died for it, only to rise again on Katherine's blood. A vampire born of sacrifice and silence. She ran. From Mystic Falls, from her brothers, from the weight of what she'd become. Until New Orleans. Until him. Elijah Mikaelson. The noble one. The original who saw past her fangs and fear. They married in secret, whispered vows in a city drunk on jazz and danger. For a breath, she was happy. Then came Mikael. Hunting Klaus. Hunting her, a Salvatore to burn for good measure. So she ran again. Left Elijah without a word. Let him believe she was ash and memory. Now she's back in Mystic Falls. 𝘉𝘶𝘵 𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘴𝘵?

Anansi is a Bennett, meaning just like Bonnie... she's one of the strongest witches alive. But because of their age difference, it wasn't too easy for the Salvatores to get her involved in their scheming ways. Instead, she gravitated to someone more her style. Elijah Mikaelson. Like Elijah, she was about her business and stood for what she believed was right. Protecting her younger cousin was one of those things she believed was right. Elijah believed whatever she believed. He'd never met a woman like her. From her afro down to her perfectly pedicured toes, she was a breath of fresh air to him. That's exactly why he was going to make sure she'd never have a reason to leave. Elijah Mikaelson ( Yearner ) x OC

When he passed, so did she-and the spell lived on, weaving itself into new lovers across the ages. Life after life, one could not exist without the other. Until the spell fell upon the wrong hands. Two witches, bound together, dared to stand against the Mikaelsons. But when Elijah raised his hand to strike, the witch saw through him-saw the longing he buried beneath his nobility. Love. With her dying breath, she twisted her magic into a curse, condemning him to a thousand years of emptiness. His soulmate would not be born until long after he should have turned to dust. Yet Elijah endured. He learned to live without love, to bury his heart in honor and in blood. His mark burned, but he carried it like penance. And then-exactly a millennium later-Scarlett Gilbert was born. The middle child, loved by many, brought into the supernatural world by her older sister Elena. She assumed her sister being a doppelgänger and being infatuated by 2 vampires wouldn't affect her directly... ..Until the night she was delivered to Elijah Mikaelson.

Everly-Rose Thomas is an introvert, quiet and incredibly polite for her age. She has a pair of enchanting large blue eyes, and wavy light brown hair that often rest elegantly on her shoulders. For those who don't know her, Everly-Rose is just a shy and reserved student, and of course, an excellent, well-disciplined student as well. For those who do know her, she is as she shown, a very polite and respectful friend, but at times, she would reveal her talkative side. When it happens, her friends often question the validity of her introversion. What happens when the kindest and very human Everly-Rose Thomas sequentially bumped into Katherine and Elijah? Will she be pulled into the supernatural world? How will her easily-startled heart take the information when it happens? Will she become collateral in the process?
