You have been a vampire since 1809. However, in 1863 in Mystic Falls, all the vampires were burned.. or so it was thought. A few escaped, and the ones that didn't weren't actually burned. The townspeople only thought they were. In reality, they were locked in a tomb. One that had just recently been opened, thanks to Damon Salvatore and Ana. Ana just really wanted to save her mom, but you and her were friends so she was happy you were back too.

Obviously, the first thing you did when you got back was look for your boyfriend. Your vampire boyfriend, Dean Filipelle, had been one of the few to escape. You saved his life with your vampire blood and turned him some time in the 1840s. It had been almost two weeks, and you had found out, via Damon, that Dean had a girlfriend. In Mystic Falls. He had been staying here and feeding on animal blood, much like what Stephan does. Asshole. So, you decided to stop looking for him. Word that Illyana Rasputina was back in town would hit him eventually. Until then, you had to stay with Stephan and Damon Salvatore, because they had a lot of issues with vampires and the council and Elena and whatnot that they didn't need you, a vampire you loved human blood, running around unsupervised.
