Mattheo Riddle has never cared much for rules. Skipping classes, picking fights, collecting detentions like trophies-it's all become second nature. But when his reckless behavior finally pushes Hogwarts to its limit, Professor Snape gives him an ultimatum: become the designated buddy of the newest transfer student or face expulsion. For Mattheo, the choice isn't really a choice. With the Dark Lord's demands growing heavier by the day, being thrown out of Hogwarts would ruin everything. Then there's Celeste Aracosa. Transferred from Ilvermorny under mysterious circumstances, Celeste is sharp-tongued, beautiful, ruthless, and completely unimpressed by Mattheo's reputation. She doesn't fear him, doesn't admire him, and certainly doesn't make his life easy. If anything, she seems determined to get under his skin. And somehow, she succeeds. What begins as forced companionship slowly twists into something darker. An unwanted fixation. The sound of her laughter lingers in his mind long after she's gone. Her insults replay in his head like treasured memories. He notices every glance, every smile, every detail he should have forgotten. But as secrets buried beneath Hogwarts begin to surface, and the truth behind Celeste's arrival threatens to unravel everything, Mattheo finds himself trapped between loyalty and obsession. Between the darkness he was born into and the girl who makes him question it. Because some lies are deadly and some truths are impossible to survive. But by the time Mattheo realizes what Celeste truly means to him, there may not be enough time left to tell her. After all, limerence isn't love. It's the kind of obsession that destroys you first.

"Because I was thinking the same thing." | The rules? Easy enough. 1. Pretend to be the perfect couple. 2. Keep it professional. 3. And whatever you do, don't. catch. feelings. Simple, right?

She was like looking into a mirror. Or reading a book I've always had but only skimmed through. 𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐘 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 was the oldest daughter in her family. The first try. The first mistake. She carried responsibility like it was stitched into her bones. Moving to Ireland was meant to be a new start-a quiet hope that distance from London might soften the edges of everything. But it hasn't. Of course it hasn't. It's just given her a new place to hold everything together, again. Emory is fraying, but she can't let it show. Her siblings need her steady. They need her unbreakable. And that's what she makes herself. 𝐓𝐀𝐃𝐇𝐆 𝐋𝐘𝐍𝐂𝐇 moves through the world like nothing can touch him. Easy confidence-sharp tongue. Untouchable on the Hurling pitch. He's the boy the teachers don't know what to do with, he's brilliant, but careless-Always needing something to challenge him, or else he's distracted. But underneath all that easy is something unsteady. His childhood was built on volatility. An angry father, a numb mother-and when the fire took them both, Tadhg didn't know what to do. How to live in the soft moments, the quiet-he wasn't even sure what that was. He carries the quiet, suffocating guilt of survival-the feeling that every breath he takes is stolen from his mother, who never got to keep hers. _________________ 𝐓𝐀𝐃𝐆𝐇 𝐋𝐘𝐍𝐂𝐇 𝐱 𝐄𝐌𝐎𝐑𝐘 𝐁𝐑𝐎𝐖𝐍 (𝐎𝐂)
