We've all heard the tales of good and bad, the tales of innocent deceit and her hero, the tales that despite their nature, show us the beauty in contrast. But it's the tales of pure evil that get swept under the rug. The tales of deception, where cruelty is rewarded. The tales that have you questioning who the real villain of the story is. There's a simple philosophy to most thing in life; two wrongs 𝘯𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 make a right. So what ensues when you put two of the worst kinds of people together? Loyalties transfer, lines blur, and hatred ignites complete chaos. She's cunning. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘳𝘶𝘵𝘩𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴. She's dangerous. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘷𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴. She's evil. 𝘏𝘦'𝘴 𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘴𝘦. Or so that's what we're told.

"I was reaching for stars that didn't exist, caught up in the fantasies born of willful hope. I threw myself in the path of fate because I wanted to be swept away." ... We do stupid, stupid things in the name of those we love. We dedicate ourselves to false promises and we hope that in the end, it all turns out alright. I was never the kind of person who jumped into things without thinking about the consequences. I never dreamed of what could come from some silly mistakes. Two new students come for their 6th year at Hogwarts. Neither of them particularly want to be there. What havoc could a witch and a dark wizard bring to the year? As they both become frustratingly curious about each other, things fall in place that might never have occurred if they had just never met. ... So I started this book because I was bored, and now it's kind of my life accomplishment weirdly enough. It's not perfect and definitely not what it started out as but this fic has parts of my heart and soul in it and I'm proud of how far it's come. Contains toxic but also lovable Mattheo Riddle and an emotionally relatable mc. !!!Finished updating but still doing some editing!!! *WARNING* Contains violence, sexual content, swearing, mentions of abuse, death and possibly more. *I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters, Mattheo Riddle belongs to @yasmineamara, I only own my own characters. Happy reading

They had known each other once, in the way kids on a small island inevitably do. Birthday parties. Beach days. Then the world told them. Now, when their paths crossed, it was all snarled words and sideways glances. A war of silence and stolen looks, laced with something neither of them dared name. But even the most dangerous storms start as a ripple. And one summer... something shifted. He looked at her like he saw through the perfect. She looked at him like she wasn't afraid to fall. The island was split. But they were already standing on the fault line. FEM OC x JJ MAYBANK.

"Looks like I found my lucky charm", he said, "Kiara Carrera, the half-kook wonder." It all begins at the Kook Academy, Kiara's reluctant entrance into the world she's spent her life rejecting. She's sharp-tongued, fiercely independent and doesn't play by the rules of the Kook elite. But nothing destabilizes her more than Rafe Cameron. He's chaos in human form. Dangerous, damaged, magnetic and completely off-limits. Because he's not just any Kook. He's her best friend's older brother. The same boy who once barely acknowledged her existence is now the man who watches her too closely. Whispers venom in her ear one moment and saves her the next. Their connection is anything but romantic, it's volatile. A slow descent into obsession, secrecy, and blurred lines neither of them can escape from. As years pass, lies stack, blood is spilled, and their worlds continue to unravel. What they share isn't safe. It's not soft. Some might say it's not even love. But it's the one thing they keep coming back to, again and again.

Zamyrah has never believed in fairy-tale endings, and Dayvon has never been the type to follow rules. But when their families force them into an arrangement neither asked for, they're left with no choice but to play the part of the perfect couple-or risk everything their loved ones have built. From staged interviews and handholding under flashing cameras to living under the same roof, their lives become a performance for the world. But behind closed doors, sparks fly-sharp words, stolen glances, and touches that feel too real to be fake. Zamyrah is determined to keep her guard up, convinced Dayvon's smirk is nothing more than trouble in disguise. Dayvon, on the other hand, is sure he can break down every wall she's built. What starts as a contract soon turns into something neither of them can control. Because somewhere between pretending and resisting, their hearts stop following the script. publish on- september 29,2025 Finish on-
