Haven Goldspear is an orphan of the war. Her father, Lyan Goldspear, died in the First Wizarding War, and her mother in the second, during the Battle of Hogwarts. Having no place to go, she stayed at the Leaky Cauldron, spending her days there trying to understand her anger and taking it out on the poor glass cup she stole from the kitchens once.
Because of the lack of friends she made at Hogwarts, Haven really has no one to turn to. Her father's family were all killed during the Wizarding Wars, and her mother's side of the family hasn't been in much contact with Haven and her mother since Ella married Lyan. The only time Haven saw her family members from that side was at Hogwarts, when Padma and Parvati Patil took the same classes she did. Haven didn't expect any help from her fellow Hufflepuffs, seeing as she only talked to them in the common room and not once sent them a letter during the holidays.
The War has turned Haven into a shell of anger and her odd ways of coping are the only ways that she kept standing, even if those ways only worsened her condition.
Harry Potter was just as mad, just as furious as Haven. The War left him completely alone. The Weasleys were there for him but they didn't understand, they didn't lose their direct family, and they certainly didn't walk directly to their death to save everyone else. It obviously didn't help how Ron and Hermione were on each other every second of the day after announcing their relationship. Harry was grateful for them and their support but that feeling did not overpower the rage he felt in him.
When meeting Haven again after the War, just before they were to leave for Platform Nine and Three Quarters, he doesn't think much of the change he was going to experience. He didn't expect how her ways of coping were going to feel so fulfilling, finally able to let out every nerve in his body. He didn't think of how her dark eyes were going to make him feel and how her anger would soothe his.
Harry and Haven found each other in their darkest times but neither of them expected the impact the other would leave on them.

And now for some notes from the author! (I missed those so much)
This book will be talking about how these characters cope with losing their loved ones after the war. This means they will be experiencing several traumas. Be warned if you're not comfortable with that!
This book will also have separate chapters with spice. The spicy content won't be in the middle of a chapter so they're easy to skip if you're not comfortable with reading it, and I won't be putting any crucial information about the plot and/or characters so you don't have to worry about missing anything! I hope I can satisfy every reader with this plan :)
The uploading schedule will most likely be different from how I used to upload because I don't have a guide with precise dialogue and events. This means it will take longer to upload so instead of a new chapter every day, it might be a new chapter every two or three days.
As for when I will publish the first chapter; I will do so once I've written approximately fifteen chapters so I can publish five chapters at once and then one every time I finish another one. The reason I keep ten chapters in my drafts is so that I can still change some minor details before I upload and so I have all the time to go over it to catch any spelling errors.
As many of you know, English is not my first language and I use Grammarly for any grammar faults but sometimes, a typo can slip. If you ever see one, please notify me so I can change it instantly! Thank you very much in advance.
I think I have everything covered now! If you want to stay up to date with any announcement about this book or my other Harry Potter x OC story, you can follow me!
(Also, hi to the readers who have also read 'Faith'! I missed you!)
