Sirens have always been needy.
Craving love, attention, adoration.
But not Anastasia.
Last of her kind. The last siren.
Then there's Elijah-one of the first vampires, one of the Originals. A man who never lets a woman linger in his thoughts for long.
Until her.
Anastasia changed that.
Ever since what he assumed was a modern one-night stand, she's been stuck in the back of his mind like a catchy song 𝘩𝘦 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘯 𝘭𝘪𝘬𝘦𝘥 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘭𝘢𝘤𝘦. Refusing to leave. A permanent, unwelcome guest.
Now, they meet again. Different time, different circumstances.
And yet, one thing leaves him 𝘢𝘣𝘴𝘰𝘭𝘶𝘵𝘦𝘭𝘺 𝘧𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘥:
She doesn't remember him.
Not his face. Not his name. Not his 𝘶𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘮 or 𝘪𝘮𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘤𝘢𝘣𝘭𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘪𝘵𝘴. Not even a 𝘷𝘢𝘨𝘶𝘦 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘴𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘥é𝘫à 𝘷𝘶!
Nothing.
Like he was some forgettable 𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘦𝘳 in her story.
Elijah Mikaelson. Forgotten.
Frankly, 𝘩𝘦'𝘴 𝘰𝘧𝘧𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘦𝘥.

"You feel no remorse do you? You don't feel remorse for the people you've hurt, the people you've killed. They're just things to you."
"That's not true, Harper. I love people."
"I doubt that."
"I love eating them."

Harper Gilbert undergoes a long list of trials in her life. From an opinionated teenager to a young woman trying to find her way. It can be difficult living in a town chock-full of supernatural idiots, but what's even worse is that she's twins with the doppelganger with a high bounty over her head.
Once the one and only Original Hybrid, Klaus Mikaelson, sees her, he just cannot forget about her. Her strong will, her care for people, and her talent to make his undead heart pound.
The Heartless Monster.
The Brave Warrior.

I don't own the Vampire Diaries or The Originals, except my characters that I have created. (Harper being one of them)
But please do not take my interpretation of this story line. I don't want to report anyone.
