Always and Forever... For the Last Time (The Originals: Season 5 Fanfiction)

It's been seven years since the Hollow wreaked her havoc on New Orleans, forcing the once-strong Mikaelson family to part ways.

Hayley and Hope left for Mystic Falls, Virginia, where Hope was enrolled in the Salvatore School, run by Alaric Saltzman and Caroline Forbes.

Klaus went his own way, lost and angry, without any of the brightest lights in his family around to help save him from the darkness, may it be Elijah, his brother, or Hope, his dear daughter.

Kol and Davina left New Orleans a while ago, determined to start a new life together, as did Rebekah, when she found Marcel in New York City.

Freya and Keelin remained in New Orleans, dedicating themselves to helping Vincent Griffith, the covens and the respective supernatural communities of New Orleans rebuild their lives, their homes and their families.

And Elijah Mikaelson, along with his pregnant fiancé, Lilliana Moore, also went away, to a far away place, to a small town called Manosque, in the countryside of France - to begin again. To start afresh. Elijah no longer retains his memories of the last thousand years, and he has long forgotten the vow of "always and forever", dedicating himself only to being a husband and a father.

Lilliana herself longs for a brighter future, and now that her and Elijah have begun to build anew, things might be different.

Or will they?
