Under the blanket of the midnight sky, the castle of Hogwarts stood as a silent witness to countless secrets, whispered dreams, and unspoken desires. Tonight, it would bear witness to something more–a promise that would transcend the very essence of time.

Hidden away in the shadows of the Forbidden Forest, just beyond the gaze of the castle's many watchful eyes, two figures stood close together, their hands intertwined as if afraid to let go.

"Are you sure about this?" he asked, his voice a low murmur. His brown eyes, sharp and calculating, softened as they searched her face for any sign of hesitation.

She nodded, her hair catching the soft glow of the moonlight as it fell across her face. "More sure than I've ever been about anything, Mattheo," she whispered, her voice steady, yet filled with emotion. "This–us–it's the one thing in my life that I know is right."

Mattheo Riddle, the Slytherin prince with a reputation as cold as ice, felt his heart warm at her words. He had always prided himself on his control, on the way he kept his emotions in check, hidden behind a carefully constructed mask. But with her, Y/F/N, that mask had long since shattered.

"And you're sure you're ready to be bound to me?" Mattheo's tone was light, teasing even, but the underlying seriousness was unmistakable. He knew what he was asking of her. For all their differences, their love had defied expectations, defied the prejudices that had once separated them. And now, they stood on the brink of something even greater.

Y/N stepped closer, her eyes never leaving his. "I've never been more ready, Matty. Our world is changing, and there's so much uncertainty ahead. But the one thing I'm certain of is my love for you. It's unshakable, unbreakable. Forever."

The word hung in the air between them, heavy with meaning. Forever it was a promise few dared to make, yet here they were, ready to seal their hearts with it.

Mattheo's breath hitched as he took in the gravity of her words. There was no turning back now. With a nod, he pulled out his wand, its polished wood glinting in the moonlight. "Then let's make it official."

Y/N followed suit, retrieving her own wand, her eyes reflecting the same determination as his. Together, they pointed their wands at each other, the tips glowing faintly in anticipation.

"Amor Vincit Omnia," (Love Conquers All) Mattheo's began, his voice revibrating with the ancient magic of the vow.

"Amor Aeternus," (Eternal Love) Y/N continued, her words weaving into his, their magic intertwining in a dance of light and love.

"Ut nos iungamur," (Let Us Join) they finished in unison, their voices strong, unwavering. The magic flared brightly, enveloping them in a soft glow that seemed to pulse with the rhythm of their hearts.

For a moment, everything was still. The world seemed to hold its breath as the magic took hold, binding their souls together in a bond that would last for eternity.

As the light faded, Mattheo reached out, gently cradling her face in his hands. "You're mine," he whispered, hsi voice filled with a mixture of awe and possessiveness. "Forever."

Y/N smiled, her heart swelling with love as she gazed up at him. "And you're mine,' she echoed, her voice just as firm, just as sure. "Forever."

They leaned in, their lips meeting in a kiss that was both tender and passionate, sealing the vow they had just made. It was a kiss that spoke of promises kept, of futures intertwined, of a love that would stand the test of time.

When they finally pulled away, their foreheads rested together, their breaths mingling in the cool night air. There were no more words to be said; everything that mattered had been spoken, their hearts now bound together in a way that no force could ever break.

Hand in hand, they walked back towards the castle, their steps in sync, their hearts beating as one. The future was uncertain, but it didn't matter. They had each other, and that was all they needed

And as the castle loomed closer, a silent witness to their love, they knew that no matter what came their way, they would face it together. Forever.
