Please read at your own risk.* Oakley Adams is a pureblood Slytherin at Hogwarts School for Witchcraft and Wizardry. Her family and another powerful pureblood family, the Nelson's, have their son, William Nelson, and her's lives set for them. Things are average and well in her world, until she meets a certain Hufflepuff her 6th year and everything is flipped upside down. She's conflicted between her family and her happiness. Will she live up to her Slytherin identity and stay loyal to her family and status, or will she risk losing everything for the one thing she truly wants? I only own the OC's (Oakley, William, their families, etc) and the plot. All other characters and magical things are owned by J.K. Rowling. The plot doesn't follow any of the books. I made the cover!

Secrets are meant to be kept and unspeakable things should not be spoken, bending these rules may cause a catastrophe. Saving her friends is worth it. Saving her is worth it, but at what cost? How far will she go to keep those she cares about safe? Love and war don't mix well, so much so the outcome might be fatal. This is based on the Harry Potter movies and books but there are certain things that have been changed! Characters not mentioned in the books and movies are mine. Everything else belongs to JKR, whom I do not support. There are similarities to Don't Look Back by Onyx_and_Elm and I give full credit to them, also check out their amazing fics! Please note that in this story the twins are also in Slytherin along with Sage! Sage is a Weasley child born between the twins and Ron. Cedric, Draco, and their friends are all a year older than the golden trio. The twins are a year older than all of them! translated to Spanish by: @fantasticfurby Spotify playlist: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/6Dny2SZoBi5u5Z3YMc382E?si=vtew9lhLQLSmOPTAcGwUxg CW: Mature content, drug use, drinking, smoking, heavy topics such as anxiety, depression, suicidal thoughts, cutting, eating disorders, and death.
