"To love a Mikaelson is to be consumed by fire; to be one of them is to be the spark."
In 1002 AD, Eloise Paradovasen was a noblewoman of the Gemini Coven, a girl whose life was a countdown to a brutal ritual. She was destined to be traded to the cold Tristan de Martel-until the Mikaelsons arrived. In the shadowed ramparts of a French castle, she found a soul-shattering love with Kol, the wild and charming brother who loved her not for her magic, but for her heart.
But loyalty among the Originals is a jagged blade.
For centuries, she walked beside them-until the jazz-soaked nights of 1914 New Orleans. In a single stroke of cruelty for Klaus Eloise was left alone in a world that had forgotten her.
Desperate to escape the cycle of blood, Eloise fled to the foggy streets of Mystic Falls. She compelled herself a family, buried her memories, and built a "boring," happy life as Ellie. She even found a quiet, human love with Jeremy Gilbert, a boy who sees the girl behind the mask.
But the past is a ghost that never rests. When the "Noble" Elijah Mikaelson appears in the town square, the seals on Eloise's memory begin to shatter. The daggers are coming out, the violet fire of her magic is waking, and the man who has spent a century screaming for her in the dark is finally opening his eyes.
Can Eloise protect the human life she's fought to build, or will the irresistible pull of "Always and Forever" drag her back into the arms of the monsters she once called family?
