Bloodlines| The Vampire diaries

You already know Elena Gilbert's story.

This is the story of her younger twin sister.

After the tragic loss of their parents, Samantha Jennifer Gilbert spent years hiding her pain behind a smile. While Elena tried to move forward, Sam buried her grief and did everything she could to pretend that she was okay.

But in Mystic Falls, secrets never stay buried.

When Katherine Pierce returns and supernatural events begin taking over the town, Sam finds herself pulled into a world she never knew existed. Vampires. Werewolves. Doppelgängers.

And eventually, magic.

With the help of her best friend Bonnie Bennett and Bonnie's grandmother, Sheila Bennett, Sam discovers that she is a witch. As she learns to control her abilities, Sam realizes that her family's history may be more complicated than she ever imagined.

While Elena is forced to confront her destiny as a Doppelgänger, Sam begins creating a destiny of her own.

But magic comes with consequences.

After losing the people she loves, including her brother Jeremy, Sam's grief finally becomes too much to contain. Her magic spirals out of control, and the girl who once tried so hard to be strong goes rogue.

Desperate for answers, Sam searches deeper into her family's history and uncovers a connection to ancient magic and the Travelers. Along the way, she becomes entangled with the Mikaelsons-especially Elijah Mikaelson, an Original vampire she initially refuses to admit she cares about.

Their relationship begins with distrust.

Then friendship.

Then denial.

Because falling in love with an Original was never supposed to be part of Sam's story.

As the years pass, Sam's journey takes her from Mystic Falls to a new chapter she never expected.

Witch.
Traveler.
Heretic.

Samantha Gilbert was born with the same face as her twin sister.

But she was never meant to live the same life
