The aunt/nephew relationship between the Original hybrid Niklaus Mikaelson and the witch Dahlia.

Klaus first heard about his aunt from his older brother Finn Mikaelson in The Originals Season Two episode The Brothers That Care Forgot. Finn told him about the firstborn curse placed on their family in order to justify their mother's attempt to take Klaus' daughter Hope's life - Klaus' mother preferred her only granddaughter die shortly after her birth than be raised as a magical slave at the hands of her great-aunt. Klaus, who was well aware of his mother's strong powers, realized that his aunt might just be even more dangerous in comparison. Klaus and his siblings spent the rest of the season trying to learn more about their aunt Dahlia, whom they knew little to nothing about. After a talk with his eldest sister Freya Mikaelson after she had reawakened from her century of sleep, Klaus and Elijah were able to gather useful information about their aunt, but the more they discovered, the more concerned they grew - realizing that Dahlia might be the most powerful witch they had ever faced.

A while after that, Dahlia came to New Orleans to take Hope. Klaus, of course looked for every way to kill his allegedly immortal aunt - even going as far as teaming up with Mikael. But after that failed, Dahlia attempted to separate him from his siblings, and succeeded, as she framed her nephew in the murder of Aiden - and Klaus took the blame on himself to keep Hayley from leaving New Orleans with Hope. As a result, Elijah eventually dagger him in front of their sisters. While daggered, Dahlia castes a spell to make a daggered Klaus see her past memories with Esther, and then with Freya. She convinced him to work together with her - he will raise Hope as her father, she will channel her power, be Hope's mentor, and be his ally - and nobody will ever dare challenge him. Klaus, unwilling to trust his aunt in anyway - declines. But after he realized that Hayley and her husband took his daughter, and his siblings agreed to it, he turns to her help.

After feeding, he and Dahlia stole the werewolf curse that Marcel owned, and as punishment for taking his daughter, Klaus have Dahlia put the curse on crescent wolf clan once again. But as Dahlia wished to link herself to Hope, it all turned up to be a ruse: Klaus never wished to be her ally, he just meant to learn more about her - in order to defeat her, and to use her to punish Hayley and the wolfs who took his child. Klaus daggers himself, and, as he is linked to Dahlia (he suggested that as a temporally alternative) - they both fall to ground. But even unconscious, Dahlia managed to melt the dagger, and almost killed Klaus, but Marcel saved him. After they revived Esther, Klaus killed her yet again - in order to use her blood to kill Dahlia, and finally; he succeeded.

The Originals Season Two

Klaus & Mikael vs. Dahlia

In Night Has A Thousand Eyes, Klaus met his aunt Dahlia for the first time when she arrived to New Orleans to claim his daughter, whom she believed was rightfully owed to her as a result of her bargain with Esther. He feared Dahlia taking his daughter so much that he later teamed up with Mikael, whom he loathed, to kill her and prevent their respective beloved daughters (Hope and Freya) from Dahlia's influence. Unfortunately, their plan, which involved a dagger bound with the three ingredients that they believed made up her sole weakness (Norwegian soil, ash of her Viking oppressors, and the blood of Freya, the only person who had broken her heart) failed when Dahlia found and destroyed the blade. Afterward, Dahlia assured them that her only intention was to claim what was owed to her, and that as long as she got it, she would leave peacefully, and then left them to lick their proverbial wounds. When they return to the compound, Freya and Mikael, who verbally attacked Klaus for rushing their plan to kill Dahlia, which led to the destruction of their sole weapon, Klaus killed Mikael in front of Elijah, Rebekah, and Freya in order to recollect the Viking ashes needed to create another weapon.

In When the Levee Breaks, Dahlia, after overhearing a conversation between the werewolves Aiden and Jackson in which Aiden confessed to having spied for Klaus, cornered Aiden in an alley and ripped out his heart with the intention of framing Klaus for his murder, believing that it would be the last straw to turn the Mikaelsons against each other. As she intended, Jackson, Hayley, and the Crescent wolves, along with Elijah, Rebekah, and Freya, assumed Klaus was guilty, especially when he himself falsely admitted to doing it in hopes that everyone would fear him enough to go along with his plan. However, it only succeeding in worrying everyone enough that Elijah used the golden dagger enchanted by Kol and Davina to incapacitate Klaus while they made a new plan to fight Dahlia.

Dahlia convinces Klaus to be her ally

In City Beneath The Sea, After Klaus was daggered by Elijah, Dahlia used her magic to bring his consciousness into her mind so she could show Klaus memories from her past that shaped who she grew up to be in order to demonstrate that they were much more alike than he wanted to admit. Among the memories she showed him were Esther abandoning her while they were in Viking captivity to marry Mikael and start a family to demonstrate that she, too, had been betrayed by the family she loved. She also showed him a memory of Freya from when she was just a young adult in the 11th century, and how difficult it was to learn to control her abilities due to her status as a firstborn witch of Esther and Dahlia's bloodline, who are known to possess devastating amounts of magical power. As part of her attempt to form an alliance with her nephew, Dahlia also revealed to Klaus the reason why it is important that Dahlia help in raising Hope - not only is Hope a firstborn witch of her bloodline, but she also has additional power from her vampire and werewolf heritage, and if she doesn't receive the proper training to learn to control her magic, she will not only destroy herself, but anyone around her. In order to avoid the mistakes she made with Freya, Dahlia also offers to allow Klaus to continue to raise Hope alongside her, so Hope can have her father in her life and not suffer the loneliness and abandonment that Freya experienced; however, she would agree to this only if Klaus killed Hayley, as she knew Hayley would never agree to allow Dahlia to raise her. Dahlia then gave Klaus the magical power necessary to overcome the effects of the dagger and remove it from his chest so he could fight at her side. When Klaus overheard Elijah and Rebekah listening to a voicemail from Hayley informing that she was leaving with Hope due to Klaus' erratic and reckless behavior, Klaus became so angry that he tracked down Dahlia and agreed to help her in exchange for her help in punishing Hayley.

Dahlia stops the storm - to help Klaus find Hope

In Fire with Fire, Klaus worked with Dahlia to dismantle his siblings' plans to kill her in order to gain his aunt's trust, which included; compelling Gia to kill herself in the sunlight in front of Elijah and stabbing him with Papa Tunde's blade; compelling Marcel to kill Rebekah if she tried to escape the compound, as killing her vessel would result in her spirit returning to her original body; and placing an adapted version of the Crescent Curse on Hayley, Jackson, and the rest of the Crescent wolves, which trapped them in their wolf forms at all times, save for the hours of the full moon. After finding Hope in the car after Mary, who was protecting her, was forced into her wolf form by the curse, Klaus stopped Dahlia from immediately linking herself to Hope by first convincing her to link herself to him; to convince her to do this, Klaus claimed that he didn't want to risk Hope being forced into the same pseudo-immortality curse that gave Dahlia invulnerability in exchange for being forced to sleep for a century and awaken for a single year of life before repeating the cycle anew.

The Mikaelson siblings watch their finaly dead mother and aunt

In Ashes to Ashes, Klaus was successfully linked to Dahlia. He then turned the dagger Davina and Kol created onto himself, neutralizing both of them in the process. However, since the dagger was not made to neutralize her specifically, she was still conscious enough to use her magic to melt the dagger, and in doing so breaking the link between them, along with their alliance. She later nearly killed him and his Original vampire siblings by exploding the white oak stake and forcing them to inhale the particles, burning them from the inside. Fortunately for them, they are saved by their mother Esther, who trapped Dahlia with her chains, freeing Freya from being strangled just in time for her to cast a spell to reverse the properties of the stake particles. Klaus was then able to kill Dahlia by running both Esther and Dahlia through with the second enchanted blade made by Freya.
