/Going through hefty editing. Finished CH 1-7 so far/ Returning for her sixth year at Hogwarts, Lilith Natrix Voidcroft faces the challenges of growing up, where friendships begin to deepen into something more complex. As she navigates these shifting dynamics, she's caught in a whirlwind of conflicting emotions-guilt, rage, lust, and a lingering sense of obligation. Torn between the dark allure of Sebastian Sallow and the safer path of simple morality, Lilith's journey through this pivotal year will reveal both the brightest and darkest facets of her soul. Each moment feels familiar, yet tinged with a new intensity, leaving her to question: Can Sebastian truly keep his vow to stay away from the Dark Arts? And is Lilith destined to be a beacon of light, or will she be consumed by an eternal eclipse? 𖤓 Back at Hogwarts, both the MC and Sebastian wrestle with their tangled emotions for one another, each opting for a seemingly safer path-MC with the adventurous Gryffindor Garreth Weasley, and Sebastian with the spontaneous Hufflepuff Charlotte Morrison. Yet, despite these choices, they find themselves irresistibly drawn to one another, captivated by a connection that teeters between agony and ecstasy. As a new year dawns at Hogwarts, they discover that the lengths we go to for love remain as timeless and unchanging as the castle's ancient walls. 𖤓 "My aim was to craft a story where the MC and Sebastian share an intense chemistry, a volatile mix of love and hate that blurs into one another, evolving into a deep-seated addiction. Their connection is as much about passion as it is about pain, with each emotion feeding the other in a way that neither can resist." 𖤓 Cute slow burn young love, with added dark forbidden elements.

It's been ten years since Eleanor Blackwood left Hogwarts. She wasn't planning to come back - not really. But when the offer came to return as a guest lecturer in Alchemy, she said yes before she could talk herself out of it. She tells herself it's not about the past. Not about the people she left behind. Definitely not about him. Sebastian Sallow is still at the castle. Still sharp. Still complicated. Still feels like something unfinished. And then there's Garreth Weasley; kind, familiar, maybe something more. She doesn't know yet. But part of her wants to find out. But the thing is some feelings don't just fade. Some stay quiet until you walk back into the same room, and suddenly they're loud again. And that one question she's tried not to ask for years: If he had just answered... would everything be different? A slow-burn, second-chance story set years after Hogwarts Legacy. For anyone who's ever tried to move on but kept looking back anyway. Sebastian art by cassielassiebassie

They were inseparable - until he vanished without a word. Now Daphne Hawthorne is a Cursebreaker, and Sebastian Sallow is a threat. But when their paths cross again, old feelings spark like fire. What began as a mission becomes something far more dangerous. Because she never stopped loving him. And that's what'll probably kill her. "I was raised to stand in the light. But I was never more alive than when I was burning with him." Sebastian photo credit: audra1890 on Pinterest

Hazel Warren left Hogwarts with a broken heart three years ago. The night before graduation, she gave Sebastian Sallow a choice: the darkness or me. He didn't answer, and she didn't look back. Three years later, she's returned. She's older, quieter, but no longer alone. Invited to interview for the interim Charms position, Hazel expects awkward glances and old ghosts. But not him. Not Sebastian, who is now the Defence Against the Dark Arts Professor, standing in the very school where everything ended. She thought she could keep her secret buried. Until a voice rings out. And Sebastian turns, and everything unravels. She has his curls. She has his eyes. And she's almost three years old. __ Disclaimer: I do not own any characters, settings, or elements from Hogwarts Legacy or the Harry Potter universe; they are the property of Warner Bros.

There's barely anyone on the grounds so we wouldn't have to worry with everyone taking Astrology being up here" he spoke, looking at the sky. "They do like to spend all of their time here don't they?" I joked "I don't blame them. It is quite lovely" I noticed him look toward me from the corner of my eye, then look back up.
