Charlotte Hatton died when she ran in front of a White Oak stake for Kol Mikaelson and was wandering the Other Side — a purgatory for supernatural creatures — until it collapsed. Before she reached a state of permanent death, Lottie was pulled out of the Other Side by Esther Mikaelson and given a second chance at life with the condition she takes on a 'pure' form. Now known to the world as dormant witch and notorious huntress Adelina Blackwell, Lottie struggles to readjust to her new life. 

Unknowingly, Lottie had signed her soul away by acting as Esther's secret weapon in her mission to purge the world of the vampire race. With a new face, the once vampire endures an identity crisis when she is pressured to lead the live of Adelina. Forced to befriend witches and play supernatural assassin, Charlotte doesn't recognise herself anymore — or she didn't until she met him again.

Of course, Lottie was aware New Orleans was where the Mikaelsons called home given how often she would watch Kol from behind the veil, but Esther tried her hardest to prevent the two from reuniting. When the pair meet again, there's no magical connection because they're two strangers — Adelina and Kol, Kol and Adelina. But, Lottie is intent on pushing for more, every moment she spends around her old lover makes her remember who she was beyond a pawn in a witch's game. Yet, as Lottie becomes more defiant, Esther finds less and less use for the girl, resorting to dangerous means.

Rosalie — another past flame of Kol's — is resurrected and suddenly, more than an Original's heart is to play for. It's a fight for survival when Kol is forced to choose between the only women he ever loved with the consequence of not being chosen being permanent death.

However, Lottie is certain there's more to Rosalie than meets the eye. In her search for answers, unlikely alliances are formed and memories resurface. She is working against time and fate, desperate to finally get her love story after it had been cut short by unfortunate circumstances every time. In a tale of romance, friendship and heartbreak, a girl finds herself when she's not herself. From the start, she knew loving a Mikaelson would have consequences, but she would love him again without regret in a heartbeat.

SHE SAW NOTHING BUT DARKNESS BECAUSE MONSTERS DON'T GET HAPPY ENDINGS
