Aleksandar (or Alex for short) was only ten when he came home only to find that his family were killed. No. Slaughtered. On that day he was taken to an orphanage. He expected his sister to come for him. His hope was the only thing keeping him going; However, each day came and each day passed without his sister showing up, and each day he felt himself slowly but surely falling apart.

He stayed in that orphanage for eight years and left on his Eighteenth birthday. He was finally free to search for his sister and find out why she had never come for him. It took him years to learn the truth, and it was surprising to say the least. He not only discovered what happened to his sister, but he also discovered a whole other world that he had never known existed. A world where vampires, werewolves, and god knows what else were real. So upon learning that Klaus Mikaelson, one of the oldest vampires, was behind his sister's disappearance Alex decided that he would stop at nothing to find his sister and get the revenge that he deserved. Even if that meant becoming a vampire himself. He just hoped that his sister was still alive. So he got himself turned.

Many years down the line his good friend, Rose, said the words he longed to hear for so long. "I have a lead" she had said. Alex was ecstatic. He was one step closer to destroying the man he sought to destroy and one step closer to finding his beloved sister.

He had no idea that his whole life was about to turn upside down.
