She was adopted by a couple when she was just a baby, as a teen she made friends with Emma.

In her adulthood, she took a fake name as a waitress and told Emma to leave her alone with her daughter, but Emma and Regina discovered the lies and found out that she knew the truth about Emma's past and discovered the town of Storybrooke. Emma tried to stop her with the car and Lily got angry telling that without her magic Emma is nothing. Emma wanted to kill her, but Regina intervened and Lily escaped during argument.
She wanted to get her revenge on Snow White and Prince Charming by transforming herself into a dragon. After speaking to Regina about darkness, she manages to steal some of Lily's blood and the young girl managed to transform into a terrifying dragon. Lily, as a dragon, went after Snow White and knocked her out with her tail before reverting back to her human form. Lily reconciled with Emma, her mother then tried to reasoned with her and Lily did, she finally made peace with Emma and Storybrooke inhabitants.
