"The professor and I froze, unable to move or speak yet sharing a solemn understanding. We discovered something we did not even realize we were searching for: An Ancient Magic wielder." Eight years after the events of the repository, Sebastian Sallow's seemingly quiet life as a Dark-Arts professor is turned upside-down when his former friend-Juliette Fontaine-returns to Hogwarts for reasons unknown. In a remarkable coincidence, the professor and the curse-breaker soon discover a new, young Ancient Magic wielder among the professor's own students. Old feelings and lingering tension resurface as they work together to help the young protégé master their magic and earn their place as a Keeper. Yet... Sebastian cannot shake the nagging feeling that Juliette is keeping something major obscured from his view. *Friends to Lovers *Soft Sebastian Sallow *Fluff with a hint of smut *Dark themes *Healing from trauma *Found/chosen family Rankings: #1 SlytherinxRavenclaw (10/24-11/24, 1/25) #1 Sallow (11/24) #3 Hogwartslegacyfanfic (10/24) #2 Sebastianxmc (10/24, 1/25) #3 Ancientmagic (10/24) #1 requitedlove (1/25) Contains mentions of: PTSD, alcoholism/sobriety, sexual assault, general mental illness, somewhat graphic depictions of gore/blood, child abuse/neglect, mature/explicit language, death/grief

Sebastian Sallow and Gracelyn Marwood have always been partners in crime, best friends, and the source of each other's greatest mischief. But as they enter their final year at Hogwarts, something shifts. Teasing glances linger too long, friendly duels grow heated, and unspoken words threaten to break the delicate balance they've built. Sebastian is usually confident and a flirt, yet utterly infuriating when it comes to romance. Gracelyn is self-confident, radiant, and yet only one who can make him falter in his steps. When jealousy sparks, secret feelings unravel, and choices lead them down unexpected paths, they're forced to confront the undeniable-this has never been just friendship. From the tension-filled halls of Hogwarts to stolen moments in the Undercroft, from whispered promises by the lake to the life waiting beyond the castle walls, their love is a slow-burning, all-consuming fire. But Sebastian's past haunts him, and his greatest fear isn't the darkness he once embraced-it's his own mind telling him he doesn't deserve her. Will he finally let himself have the future he never thought possible? Or will his fear of falling cost him the one person who's always been willing to catch him? Friends to something more. The best kind of madness. *BONUS AU CHAPTERS AT THE END*

The world thinks I'm the arrogant one. The rule-breaker. The charming duelist who gets away with everything. They're not wrong. But no one knows what's at stake when I look at Anne. No one knows what I've done. What I'll still do. I made a promise. One I intend to keep. Not for the Headmaster. Not for the school. Not even for the girl with the violet eyes and the clever mouth who's stumbled straight into my path. Qynna Veilinharv. She wasn't here before. Now she's exactly where I need her. She casts spells like she's never learned them, argues like a Slytherin, blushes like a Hufflepuff, and hides things like the world depends on it. I should have left her alone. I didn't. She keeps walking straight into my plans, and every time she does, it becomes easier to let her. The closer she gets, the more I can see what she's made of. And the truth is, some part of me likes watching her try. Even if she never realises how deep she's wandered. Even if, by the time she does, it's already too late.

[18+] Sebastian Sallow seems to be your enemie, or do you love him..? Angella Delgado thought Hogwarts would be her sanctuary-a place to learn magic, escape her past, and carve out a future. Instead, it became a battlefield of emotions and loyalties. Between Sebastian's dangerous charm, Ominis's quiet devotion, and Marvolo's shadowed pull, every choice she makes binds her tighter to the boys who test her patience, her trust, and her heart. But beneath the teasing, jealousy, and stolen moments lies something far more perilous: secrets that could destroy friendships, unravel love, and put every life at risk. It's not easy being a transferred student in a school with boys if you're not used to it. This story continues after the Hogwarts legacy game, and the characters are 18+ and up in their sixth year. -English book-
