Lesson One at Hogwarts: Power always comes at a cost.
When Maude Prince returns for her fifth year at Hogwarts in 1942, she knows she is stepping into dangerous territory. The world outside is darkening under the shadow of Grindelwald's war, and within the castle walls, alliances shift like quicksand. Cunning and brilliant, Maude has always navigated the expectations of her powerful pureblood family with ease, but this year is different. This year, Tom Riddle is watching her.
Tom, the magnetic and terrifyingly ambitious Slytherin prefect, sees in Maude an equal and perhaps something more. Their rivalry is as sharp as their minds, but beneath it simmers a fascination that neither of them can ignore. As Maude delves into magic beyond her curriculum to understand the growing darkness around her, she begins to uncover secrets that were never meant to be revealed: Tom's fragmented past, the true extent of his power, and the horrifying steps he is willing to take to achieve immortality.
Caught in a deadly game of ambition and survival, Maude must decide where her loyalties lie. The rules of the wizarding world have never been clearer: trust no one, love no one, and always keep your secrets close. But breaking those rules may be the only way to save herself and the boy who might just destroy them all.
Tenebris is a dark, character-driven tale of ambition, forbidden love, and the price of power. In a world where survival depends on strategy and sacrifice, Maude and Tom are locked in a battle of wits and wills, hurtling toward a destiny that could change the wizarding world forever. Perfect for fans of high-stakes drama, complex characters, and the chilling allure of darkness.
