SECOND BOOK OF THE SEVEN DEVILS. [warnings: eventual smut•death•violence•possibly disturbing scenes•dark magic•religious themes] One year and a half after her departure, Varya Petrov is still fighting against time itself. With Grindelwald's attacks on Hogwarts becoming more and more aggressive, there is only a matter of time before the war is lost. Varya has been assigned one task- find the remaining Deathly Hallows and protect them from Grindelwald. With a team of extraordinary witches and wizards, she sets out to track the Cloak of Invisibility and the Resurrection Stone. One of them, however, happens to be at Hogwarts, at the hands of infamous Tom Riddle. Her journey is not as easy as she would have thought, because with Hogwarts under lockdown and a battle looming over their heads, reuniting with the Knights might not be what she had expected. cover by @supremegae

Vivian Caledonia was a student at Hogwarts with an unsettling curiosity, drawn not to the bright, safe corners of magic, but to its darker, whispered edges. She wasn't malicious, only endlessly fascinated by the forbidden knowledge hidden in shadows. One cold, silent night, she slipped into the restricted section of the library, where dusty tomes on dark magic lay hidden away, their secrets waiting to be unraveled. As the flicker of wand light danced on ancient pages, a presence stirred nearby. Tom Riddle, another Slytherin with a reputation as enigmatic as the shadows themselves, watched silently from the gloom. In that charged silence, an unspoken question hung between them: what dark path would their crossing set in motion?
