<P> Rebekah is reluctantly roped into staying and playing happy families by Elijah, who wants the siblings to repair their relationships and welcome their newest member: Klaus's child . Rebekah eventually grows fond of Hayley, the child's mother, but Rebekah's increasingly contentious and sniping relationship with Klaus begins to crescendo . </P> <P> Rebekah's main source of contention with her brother Klaus is his overbearing and controlling tendencies getting in the way of Rebekah's fondest desires: namely to start a family of her own with someone who loves her absolutely and be' free' . Unfortunately, Klaus has a very low opinion of Rebekah's taste in men and has consistently killed every man Rebekah has ever fallen in love with, and daggered Rebekah into a forced sleep for decades as punishment for trying to leave Klaus . Rebekah has, therefore, come to fear, hate, and resent Klaus, even as she tries to honor Elijah's wish that they become a complete family once again . </P> <P> Klaus's opinion of Rebekah's ability to choose a partner worthy of her turns out to be generally accurate, and she is drawn to Marcel, Klaus's ward . As a test, Klaus daggers Rebekah into sleep and offers Marcel a deal . Marcel does not choose Rebekah, and she is left asleep for half a century . Despite this, the two rekindle their relationship in secret several times, with Rebekah harboring the hope that the two of them will flee her brothers' control and live happily elsewhere, since she has little hope of Klaus giving his approval . </P> <P> Rebekah is therefore very conflicted to find that Marcel, whom she believed to be dead for nearly a century, has been alive and thriving as King of New Orleans, and has new women in his life whom he loves . Rebekah is hurt Marcel never bothered trying to find her and chose power over her love . </P>
