Harry Potter had a sister. Her name was Claire. Everyone knows the story of the boy who lived. But Harry Potter was not the only child left behind that night in Godric's Hollow. Dragged into a hidden world of spells, secrets, and dangerous wonder, Claire's bond with Harry is tested as she quickly learns that being a witch means more than wands and broomsticks. Her destiny is tangled with her brother's in ways she doesn't yet understand. And while everyone expects Harry to be great, Claire begins to wonder if her path might be far darker. Magic has chosen her. But at what cost? Author note: This isn't officially an xreader story but it's as good as (I just hate writing 'y/n' lol sos). So everyone is more than welcome to imagine themselves as Claire! The love interest for this story is Draco but I want the story to be a lot more than just that. I want you to read and really experience the whole Harry Potter story from a new perspective (very shifting esc). I'm going from year 1 to the battle of Hogwarts so the romance is obviously going to be a slow burn ;) It's childhood enemies to lovers (or whatever I end it as👀). I have a lot of years to play with so their friendship/romance is going to go through a lot. ALSO REMEMBER THE CHARCTERS ARE JUST KIDS. Especially in the first few years. So let's not be weird. Obviously this all depends on your own age too. ANYWAYS I REALLY HOPE YOU ENJOY!!

After one devastating mistake, Anastasia Miller is expelled from her old school - a decision that still haunts her. Now forced to start over at the elite, twisted Ravenscroft Academy, she's determined to keep her head down, stay out of trouble, and avoid any distractions - especially the romantic kind. Celibate, silent, and set on survival. That was the plan. Strong-willed, sharp-tongued, and dead set on staying under the radar, Anastasia has no interest in making friends - or enemies. That all crashes when her path crosses with Noah Kingsley - the school's too-good-looking-for-his-own-good soccer captain. Cold, rude, and arrogant, he checks off every trait on her stay-the-hell-away list. So when he accidentally hits her in the head with a soccer ball, Anastasia doesn't just let it slide - she shoves a dead rat into his locker and calls it fair game. Because if he wants to act like an asshole, she's not afraid to match the energy. What starts as petty revenge turns into tension, banter, and something neither of them is ready for. But in a school where appearances are everything and everyone is hiding something, Anastasia's past is a ticking time bomb - and it's only a matter of time before it all explodes. Because at Ravenscroft, the pretty ones are damaged, the rich ones are ruthless, and even the deepest secrets don't stay buried forever.
