Super cute and fluffy fan-fiction following Draco and Harry as they slowly fall for each other. Gets almost a li'l smutty towards the end ✨ A/N: This was my first ever fanfic that I wrote purely for myself as a testing-the-water-thing. While I am extremely happy for entering this new world (for me!) of fanfic, this particular story reads like a one-shot, and it definitely lacks character development and things happen a li'l too fast at points. I hope you will enjoy this little piece, but please keep in mind that it was my first and it's definitely a bit rough around the edges! Thx guys (⁎⁍̴̆Ɛ⁍̴̆⁎)

"In the shadowed halls of Hogwarts, forbidden lines are crossed and sinister secrets unravel. Professor Tom Riddle, brilliant and enigmatic, draws his brightest student, Violet Alas, into his web of ambition and darkness. As she navigates the treacherous pull of his power and her own growing fascination, Violet must choose: resist the darkness threatening to consume her or embrace the blood-stained path her professor has set before them. In a world where every sin leaves a mark, how far will she go to uncover the truth-and how far will he go to claim her as his own?

❝ 𝘛𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘦, 𝘎𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘰𝘯. 𝘞𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘸𝘦? ❞ I asked him, for the first time in my life, I've never felt more confused. ❝ 𝘞𝘦 𝘢𝘳𝘦 𝘧𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘥𝘴, 𝘈𝘭𝘦𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘢.

𝗙𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗪𝗲𝗮𝘀𝗹𝗲𝘆, the infamous jokester of Gryffindor, is used to hiding his true self behind laughter. 𝗔𝗹𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗮 𝗗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗿𝗲, sharp-witted and reserved, is the kind of girl who watches the world from the shadows, never quite letting it in. They never talk about it. They don't have to. It's in the way Fred softens when she's near, in the way Alethea's guard drops only for him. They're best friends, nothing more-at least, that's the lie they keep telling everyone. Especially themselves. But as war creeps into the walls of Hogwarts and everything safe begins to crumble, the lines between laughter and longing begin to blur. Can they truly remain just friends after all the moments and memories they've shared, even as they deny their feelings for each other? But can their actions really hide what their hearts refuse to admit? This book is a heart-aching story of friendship, feelings unspoken, and the war that forces them to choose-between what's easy, and what's real. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ⚠️ 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭 (𝟏𝟖+).

As the new Defense Against the Dark Arts professor, you have many obligations. Little do you know, you also have other abilities that will be thrusted upon you all at once. Will you survive this new way of life or will you perish? Along with this, will the professor that you've come to adore accept you? Will others accept you?

How will (Y/N) (Y/L) get along with the Potions Master - Severus Snape, as she becomes the teacher of Hogwarts of Herbology momentarily? This is fun 'little' mashup with the characters of Harry Potter - so please, do not think way too much of the original story as you read this. It's way more fun that way. Just sit back and enjoy! :)
