Life has already been chaotic with this whole prophecy thing. That the Mikaelsons would fall, one by friend, one by foe, and one by family. But it kept getting worse and worse, people dying, like Finn and Cami, and Davina. Even though Lucien became an “upgraded-vampire/original” by a spell, we killed him, but it wasn’t enough.

Elijah killed Marcel, but none of us knew that he took the serum already. And came back. The prophecy was still coming true. But now, Freya was poisoned, Kol and Elijah got bit by Marcel (there’s no cure that you know of), and Rebekah’s still hexed. This wasn’t looking good at all.

And now there was a mob outside the compound with Marcel - all those who hated Klaus (who was your husband) and wanted him dead. You were all trying to think of a plan. Freya eventually had one, but she needed time which yall didn’t have.

But in order for this plan to work, Klaus needed to stay alive during that mob. But he would still have to sacrifice himself for the family, which meant that you had to say goodbye for a while.

After making sure Kol was okay, you walked into the room where your daughter - Hope was with her father. You watched how he crouched down to say goodbye. “It’s too dangerous. Let me come with you..” you told him.

Klaus got up, “I think not. Besides, I am the one they want.” You were desperate. “Please—“ Klaus, now standing face to face with you, placed his hands on your shoulders.

“Some time ago I abandoned you when all you did was try to protect her, and fight for her.. I was wrong to do that. I was the one who should’ve fought for you.” You shook your head, trying to keep your emotions at bay. “Stop, I—“ “Here.” You watched in confusion as Klaus removed his wedding band, your heart practically stopped beating as he placed it in your palm before closing it.

“I hate you.” You looked up, trying to hold back your tears. “I really hate you for this.” “I love you as well.” He cupped your face with his hand. “I love you, Klaus Mikaelson.”

Klaus leaned closer to kiss you and you followed, kissing him back. The kiss would be the last one you’d share for a long time. He pulled away to look at you. “Take care of her.” “I will.” You say immediately. “And I’ll make sure she’ll never forget who her father is. The brave king who fought relentlessly to keep his daughter safe.”

Klaus smiled before placing a kiss on your forehead. He walked out, leaving you and Hope. You looked at her and she was looking back at you, and you let the tears fall freely.
