## About Jamie

Jamie is a lawyer with her own practice in Paris. Born and raised in France, she hasn't been to China but plans to go there some day to get to know her homeland better. She and Theodora first met at a bookstore and are good friends, although Theodora often cancels plans with Jamie and tries to keeps her distance, setting small traps to make sure it wouldn’t hurt Jamie too much if she had to disappear once again.

In the beginning of Season 3, Jamie is in an on-and-off relationship with a woman called Zoe. Deep down she knows that Zoe and her are not meant to be, but Jamie still hooks up with her when she feels lonely. After having a deep conversation with Theodora about love and relationships, Jamie finally breaks up with Zoe for good. Because Zoe doesn't accept this decision, Theodora tells her to leave Jamie alone and encourages her friend to stand by her boundaries.

During a sleepover, Theodora gets the chance to act on her own feelings for Jamie and they spontaneously kiss after watching a romantic movie. Surprised, the women talk about being attracted to each other and end up sleeping together, following their honest desires despite knowing that the timing isn't the best. After that night, Theodora and Jamie decide to put things on pause to sort everything out. During this break, Theodora realizes that Jamie helped her a lot at a very hard time in her life by being someone with whom she could relax and have a good time. When they finally meet again, Jamie asks Theodora if she wants to be together, and they officially start their relationship. Still unsure if she should let Jamie in on her secret or not, Theodora hints at the truth by mentioning a book about demons and deals written by a Guardian, and Jamie promises to read it.

In order to finally capture Theodora, the Lord uses Jamie as bait and takes them both to his castle. Theodora confesses her immortality to a confused Jamie who then decides not to judge her. Thanks to the hint Theodora gave her, Jamie is able to avoid making a deal with the Lord.
