History

Emily was very close to Katherine. And the love of her life had always been Kol Mikaelson. But when she hasn’t seen him in centuries, she lets herself fall for Damon Salvatore. But her sister Katherine got jealous of his affections towards her, when, even though she loved Stefan, she had to compel him to love her. Whereas Emily hadn’t used any compulsion on Damon. So she compelled him to forget about Emily and then proceeded to seduce him. This made Emily angry and she took off. Katherine, hating being alone, planned to turn Damon and Stefan so they could be with her forever. It took Emily a few years before the series began before she forgave her sister and they were together again. And since Damon spent over a hundred years pining over Katherine, Emily didn’t want anything serious with him. He’s the first person she loved in a long time, but he has too many girls in his life to put herself in that position. But it’s okay, because there is someone she loves more also. And she had decided to wait for him, since no matter how hard she tries she just can’t forget him.

He tells her he loves her, always and forever, and she should have trusted that.

Relationships

Katherine Pierce

Katherine was her half-sister and as a result has a long history with her. They were both doppelgangers and targeted by Klaus as a result. They killed themselves to avoid his ritual and have been in hiding and on the run ever since. They are best friends and had little trust for anyone but each other for a long time. Despite this, Katherine can be very selfish and jealous and caused a rift between her and her sister when she compelled Damon Salvatore to forget about Emily. She was jealous of Damon's affections towards her despite not having compelled him. She lost her sister for a few centuries which caused much pain for the both of them. Emily forgave her sister before the series began, however, and were a seemingly unstoppable team. Emily loves her sister dearly and considers her the most important relationship in her life. Katherine is very protective of her and was angered, hurt, and lost by her sister's death. She was never the same after she lost her.

Kol Mikaelson

Emily and Kol met when she was human and Klaus was targeting her and her sister for his ritual. Kol was the first to find her, intending to hand her over to Klaus, but was intrigued by her and decided to keep it to himself for a while. They fell in love, but this was before Klaus found them and before Emily knew what Kol was. Kol fought to protect Emily from Klaus when he came, resulting in himself getting daggered. When he woke up in Mystic falls hundreds of years later, he assumed Klaus must have killed her as he was now a hybrid. And since Emily feared Klaus as he did want her dead, she couldn't come out of hiding and reveal herself to him. Kol, missing her deeply as the wounds for him are still fresh, decides to compell her doppelganger Bella to forget her boyfriend Damon and to be in love with him. They eventually find there way back to each other and fall in love all over again, before Kol is killed, seemingly ending there long waiting of finding each other again. Bella becomes severely depressed by this and revenge driven. After Elena kills her, however, she is ressurected into one of her descendents, Davina Claire, who was murdered. Kol was also resurrected by his mother and they were able to find each other again. They are currently married and have finally found happiness.

Damon Salvatore

Damon was Emily's first love after Kol. He knew what she was and simply didn't care. But Katherine got jealous by this since she had to compell Stefan. So she compelled Damon and stole him from her. They find each other years later and were finally able to find closure with each other. They had a sort of fling before deciding there were other people that they wanted more, but found they cared for each other and had a sort of friendship afterwards.

Marcel Gerard

When Emily only had Davina's memories, she was taken in by Marcel and he became a father figure to her. When she got her memories back she found she still cared for him and he said he didn't care who she was then. She has been Emily since they met which meant he never actually knew Davina Claire. They've had a complicated relationship throughout the series, but they consider each other family.

Step-mother

Her step-mother always ridiculed and and abused her and she never knew why. She later found out she wasn't her biological mother and her father had actually had an affair with a servant, which resulted in her birth. Her 'mother' always hated her for her reminding her of her fathers indescretions and because she wasn't her daughter. Emily was angered when she found out and threatened to out them, which resulted in them sending her to England.
