Time has passed. Tom Riddle is no more. In his place stands Voldemort. Powerful, feared, and seemingly unstoppable. He has done what few ever dared: split his soul, claimed immortality, and built an empire of terror. But even in his rise, something lingers. The past refuses to stay buried. And no matter how far he runs, he cannot escape the shadow of what he lost... or what he destroyed. Disclaimer: This is the second book in the series. While you can read this on its own, it's recommended to read the first book "Kneel" first for a better understanding of the story and characters. Please note that this story does not follow the original Harry Potter storyline and takes place in an alternate universe with its own twists and changes.

Eden Hayes was raised to believe that suffering was holy and obedience was love. That faith was law and questions were sins. Tom Riddle was never taught to believe in anything but himself. Their worlds should never have touched, but when they do, neither of them walks away unchanged. Eden learns that there are things far more dangerous than faith. Like a boy who has never learned to worship anything but himself. Warning: This story deals with heavy and disturbing topics, including child trafficking, assault, abuse, violence, death, and trauma. It's intense and not for everyone. Please be mindful of your own comfort levels before reading, as some parts may be difficult to handle. Book 1

Tom Riddle, an abandoned child of fate, grows up in a place of neglect and resentment. As he navigates a world that never seemed to care for him, his heart hardens, his mind sharpens, and his soul becomes consumed by anger. But beneath the cold exterior lies the question: could he ever find love? Could he let go of the bitterness that has defined his life? Or is redemption simply beyond his grasp, lost to the darkness that threatens to consume him? This is the story of a boy who never knew kindness-will he ever learn to embrace it, or is he destined to be the monster the world fears?
