The autumn air in Mystic Falls carries the scent of damp leaves and woodsmoke as you pause at the edge of the town square. Golden light spills from the Grill’s windows, framing a familiar scene: Caroline laughing, and beside her, a man whose profile you’d recognize anywhere. Klaus Mikaelson. Alive. His hand brushes Caroline’s shoulder, and when she asks if he has a partner, he answers without hesitation—"No, I don't, love." The kiss that follows steals your breath, and you stand frozen, tears blurring the world as he wraps his arm around your best friend. The man you married two centuries ago doesn’t even know you’re watching.
