Hope: If I go back, am I ever gonna see you again?
Hayley Not for a very, very long time. So you better have good stories, okay? Make art. Use your voice. Have adventures. And have at least one totally epic love. And be every bit of yourself. Because the very best of me is in you.

The mother-daughter relationship between the bound-hybrid-turned-vampire, Hayley Marshall-Kenner, and the Tribrid, Hope Mikaelson.

Hope is Hayley's daughter and only child. Ironically, she is also the sire of her own mother shortly after her delivery.  

Hope was conceived Bring It On and was born in From a Cradle to a Grave in St Anne's Church. Hayley is very loving and protective towards her daughter. To protect her from various enemies, such as the French Quarter Coven and the Guerrera Family, she placed Hope under her aunt Rebekah Mikaelson's care for a few months.  

They are reunited in The Map of Moments where Hayley is finally able to enjoy motherhood. Hayley leaves again to make an alliance with her pack and to protect Hope further, so Hope was left with Elijah and Camille O'Connell to look after her.  

Elijah and Cami brought home Hope to the compound in I Love You, Goodbye. Hayley married Jackson in order to bind his pack to Hayley for Hope's protection.  

Hayley and Hope lived together in the compound until later on, when Hayley decided to leave New Orleans with Hope and her pack, following her new husband's advice that removing the Mikaelsons from Hope's life would be the best thing for them. Klaus found them and cursed the Crescent Wolf Pack including Hayley and took back Hope from Hayley. For months, Hayley and Hope only saw each other once a month for a few hours on a full moon, though when the curse was broken in You Hung The Moon, Hayley took Hope and moved out with her and Jackson. They lived peacefully across the street from the Mikaelson's.

After the prophecy came true and the Mikaelson family fell, Hayley left New Orleans with Hope to find cures for the family. They lived quietly together for five years in a country house, until Hayley woke the Mikaelson's. In Keepers of the House, the Mikaelson family returned to New Orleans to defeat the Hollow, an ancient witch who targeted Hope. Hayley was determined to save her daughter by any means.

In The Feast of All Sinners, to save Hope from the power of the Hollow, each Mikaelson sibling took a portion of the witches power into themselves with knowledge they could never see each other or Hope again. Hope was raised by her mother, who enrolled her at the Salvatore School so Hope would have friends her own age.

Nine years later, Hope desperately wanted to see father again, so she faked Hayley's kidnapping in Where You Left Your Heart to Klaus back to New Orleans. Her actions set off a chain of events, including Hayley's body being stolen by vampire purists. Hayley sacrificed herself to save a kidnapped Hope from the their captor. Hope suffered crippling grief after Hayley's death, and blamed herself. They were temporarily reunited in Peace where Hayley soothed her guilt - she's at peace because of Hope. Knowing they wouldn't see one another for a long time, Hayley made Hope promise to make art, use her voice, have adventures, and at least one totally epic love. She reminded her to be every bit of herself, since the best of Hayley is in Hope.

But Eve said to not worry. She will naturally figure it out. Hayley also said that she believed that she will raise her baby alone, without Klaus, but Eve responded that she did not think that she will be alone. Later during the attack, Hayley first checked herself to see that her daughter was fine before helping the other wolves. 

In A Closer Walk With TheeMonique Deveraux casts a spell on Hayley to kill her. Hayley's heart stops beating and she is taken to the other side where she meets Mikael.
