Slow burn enemies to lovers. Intense yearning and emotionally complex Cecilia Riddle has always been more than just a name, but no one ever cared to look past it. The twin sister of Mattheo Riddle, daughter of the Dark Lord himself, she walks the halls of Hogwarts with a reputation as sharp as her stare. Feared and misunderstood. She doesn't need friends. She has silence. She doesn't need saving. She has control. Theodore Nott has known Cecilia since childhood, cold stares across pureblood parlors, bitter remarks in class, a rivalry born from old magic and quiet resentment. He's part of her brother's world. A Slytherin. A Nott. But there's something about the way she watches the world, like she's already survived it. This is a story of legacy, control, and a slow, sharp burn of the boy who saw everything in the girl who refused to be seen.

In a school where whispers travel faster than light, Mira has perfected the art of disappearing. Haunted by a past she refuses to speak about, Mira keeps everyone at a distance, convinced that isolation is the only way to protect herself. Until Mattheo and his lively group of friends begin to crack the walls she's built around herself. What starts as reluctant conversations soon becomes laughter, late-night secrets, and friendships Mira never expected. But the closer she gets to them, the harder it becomes to keep her past buried. Caught between the safety of isolation and the terrifying possibility of being truly known, Mira must decide whether to keep running from her past-or finally let someone in. Because sometimes, the hardest part isn't escaping your past. It's believing you deserve a future. ------------------------ I never meant to fall for her, but somehow Mira became the person I looked for in every room. She was guarded and stubborn, but I wanted to know every part of her she kept hidden. Somewhere between the arguments and stolen glances, she became my favourite person. She made me want to be better without ever asking me to change. I don't know when she became someone I couldn't imagine losing, but I know I'm not going anywhere. ----------------------- I never expected to love Mattheo, especially when I'd spent so long believing I was better off alone. He was persistent when I wanted distance, but somehow he never stopped choosing to stay. Somewhere along the way, he became the person who made the past feel a little quieter. He reminded me that I could still be more than what happened to me. And maybe that's what scares me most-that after everything, he's the person I can't imagine losing. ------------------------ !!mature themes!! ------------------------

A forbidden bond. A deadly secret. A girl who was never meant to belong. Five boys. One mark. A legacy soaked in shadows. No one dares speak their names too loudly. Mattheo, Tom, Draco, Theodore, and Cassian rule Hogwarts from the shadows-untouchable, feared, and hiding a secret that could burn the world. Seraphina Holloway was never supposed to matter. Not to them. Not to him. She was just the girl with the too-bright smile and the too-big heart-always trying to keep her perfect mask in place for the sake of her demanding family. But the moment she met Mattheo Riddle, something shifted. Something pulled. She should have walked away. But fate had other plans. Drawn into a web of secret meetings, ancient magic, stolen glances, and forbidden power, Seraphina finds herself caught between the light she's always clung to... and the darkness that begins to feel like home. There are secrets that burn. There are loves that ruin. And there are choices you can't come back from. Once you're in, there's no turning back. ━━━━━━✧♛✧━━━━━━ Hi there!

There are some names you inherit. Black. Riddle. And there are some legacies you never asked to carry. Fifth year begins with rumors, Ministry propaganda, and a castle trying to ignore the possibility of war. For Lyra Black, Voldemort's return is not political speculation. It's personal. Caught between the ghosts of her father, the complicated affection of Sirius Black, and a world increasingly demanding that she choose a side, Lyra finds herself drawn toward the one person she should know better than to trust. After all, forbidden things rarely announce themselves as danger. fem oc x mattheo riddle

Lyra Marlene Black. Being a Black brings expectations. Being a Black means that your entire family are expected to be evil. Being a Black gives people ideas about you before they have even met you. It means that everything is decided for you from the moment you take the name. Her fate was prewritten. But so was his. "My life is anything but easy." I scoffed, the stars looking down on me. The stars were known for telling the future, and looking at the brightest one glaring at me, it seemed as though my path was already chosen. "Easy is boring, and I hate boring." His voice spoke, whispering in my ear. I turned to the boy, watching his eyes look at me with an expression I hadn't seen before. Mattheo Riddle x OC (EDITING - 27/06/2024 -
