(Currently not updating, will remaster soon) They were seven when they built a treehouse and promised forever. They were twelve when she looked at him like a stranger. Elora Vane doesn't do softness. She does precision. She does control. She does a forgotten diary that eats her alive. She does a man in a cardigan who smells of security and tells her that weakness is death - she's believed him for so long that her own memories feel like someone else's fiction. What she doesn't do is childhood. She doesn't remember missing teeth or thunderstorms or a little boy who was called "Dray." She doesn't remember being soft. Being safe. Being human. But the war outside is bleeding in, and the girl who once turned the edges of skin blue is finally melting. As her past claws its way to the surface - a grave she refuses to visit, a diary that won't stay closed, and a man in black robes who no longer hides - Elora has to face the one question she's been running from: Is hate all they are, or just the role they've been forced to play? Draco has spent six years looking for a girl who forgot him. Elora has spent six years forgetting she was ever a person at all. A story about memory, violence, and the people who love you even when you're bleeding. Not a love story - yet. All characters except the Vane family belong to J.K. Rowling and the Harry Potter: Wizarding World franchise.

Jacqueline Joan Lestrange has never been anything less than a Slytherin. Raised at Draco Malfoy's side and steeped in the same bloodline loyalties, she has never questioned the world she was born into. The purity of old wizarding families, the supremacy of their kind. Her future was supposed to be a straight, dark line: her mother's daughter, a faithful servant of the Dark Lord when he would rise again, and proud to wear the part. But when she crosses paths with certain scruffy, black-haired boy with a ridiculous tendency to meddle in things that are none of his business and a lightning-shaped scar on his forehead that practically announces him wherever he goes, that slowly starts to change. They despise each other at first - Jackie because he is the reason her mother was sent to Azkaban, Potter because she is a Slytherin through and through, and a prejudiced Lestrange besides. They were never supposed to be anything but enemies. However, somewhere along the way, their relationship begins to shift. Hatred turns into tolerance, tolerance turns into - well. Everyone seems to agree on one thing: Harry Potter has changed Jacqueline Lestrange for the better. Jackie isn't so sure. But what is life without a little risk? 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔; ©𝐝𝐢𝐱𝐨𝐧𝐬𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐞 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐞𝐝: 𝐚𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝟖𝐭𝐡, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 𝐟𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐝: ??? ✿ updates set in GOF

"Perhaps it would have been kinder never to know love at all than to know it just long enough to lose it." Ophelia Blackthorne has spent years learning how to keep herself hidden. A Slytherin from a family whose name carries more secrets than affection, she knows better than most that trust is rarely given without a price. Draco Malfoy, unfortunately, has been given two very good reasons to see her. The first is an order from his father. The second - a wager. Not quite in that order. All he has to do is earn Ophelia's trust before January. Get close enough to learn what the Blackthornes are hiding, report what he finds, collect his winnings, and walk away. Ophelia, however, is not nearly as oblivious as he would like. So when Draco begins constructing something that resembles trust, she decides to construct one of her own. He thinks she is beginning to believe him. She thinks he is beginning to reveal himself. Neither considers what might happen if two people pretending to trust one another accidentally stop pretending. After all, a lie is perfectly harmless so long as everyone remembers which part was invented. Isn't it?

Carlisle Cullen was known for his compassion, medical expertise, and restraint ⏤ although only his family truly understood the extent of the latter skill. He had never turned a cold shoulder to the possibility of love, but in his 365 years, he had yet to find someone to give it to. That was until Valerie Shimizu came to town... Valerie Shimizu's life had turned upside-down ten years ago ⏤ metaphorically and literally as she was literally flipped over in a car. Accepting a consultant job in the small town of Forks, Washington, she never expected such a warm welcome in the coldness of the town doctor and police chief. If only death didn't make matters of the heart so complicated. [ twilight - breaking dawn ] [ reverse-harem x why choose? ] ^don't like it, don't read it, thanks 🫶

What would have happened if Sirius Black had not been killed by Bellatrix? And what if he fell in love with a twenty-three-year-old woman, despite hating her at first? Andromeda Daphne Weasley is the exception to her family: a Slytherin, brilliant and cynical-a "new Snape" who excels in Potions and the piano. At twenty-three, she is a woman scarred by her past who has given up on love, until joining the Order of the Phoenix brings her face-to-face with Sirius Black. Theirs is a bond forged from pure hatred and sharp provocations-a fire that masks an attraction as powerful as it is dangerous. Olivia Althea Cameron, on the other hand, is a fifth-year Ravenclaw, a silent artist who observes the world through ice-blue eyes. Bound by a deep friendship with Hermione and Ginny, she lives in the balance between logic and sentiment. Her heart has always belonged to George Weasley, her best friend: she loves him in silence, with the shyness of someone who has never had their first kiss, hoping he will stop smiling at the world and finally realize she is his only safe harbor. 𝗵𝗮𝗿𝗿𝘆 𝗽𝗼𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 ⸺ 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝑔𝑜𝓁𝒹𝑒𝓃 𝘵𝘳𝘪𝘰 𝘦𝘳𝘢 ৎ୭【 sirius orion black & daphne andromeda weasley 】𝒂𝒏𝒅【 george fabian weasley & olivia althea cameron 】✸ fifth year to seventh !!
