She's a Shelby. Trouble runs in her blood. Dragged from Birmingham to Hogwarts, Larissa Shelby carries more than her family's notorious name-she carries ancient magic the wizarding world thought was long buried. But Hogwarts is not all as it seems. Curses whisper through the shadows, relics hunger for blood, and every choice drags her closer to the edge. Enter Sebastian Sallow: clever, infuriating, impossible to ignore. He's as reckless as she is sharp-tongued, and together with Ominis Gaunt, they're pulled into a spiral of secrets Hogwarts was never meant to reveal. As Larissa flirts with power-and danger-she has to ask herself: is she carving her own path, or stepping into the darkness her family was born to rule? Because at Hogwarts, survival isn't about following the rules. It's about rewriting them.

Going into their 6th year at Hogwarts, Maggie Darling, Ominis Gaunt and Sebastian Sallow are hard at work trying do the right thing. They have been searching tirelessly for a way to cure Anne of her curse and find a way to deal with the repository once and for all. These tasks prove more difficult than anticipated forever and ghosts from the past come back to make their missions even more complicated. *** This second book takes place after the events of Hogwarts Legacy, following the story of an original protagonist, the young Miss Darling. We are now in uncharted territory of the story. This is a transformative work based on the Harry Potter franchise by J.K. Rowling and Portkey Games Hogwarts Legacy. Consider this an expansion and a fresh look at the game through an original lense presented in a literary format. *** What to Expect: I highly suggest reading book 1 first. I have left lots of hints and clues to the bigger picture for the series so if you just dive in to two you might be totally lost. Miss Darling comes from an upbringing that makes her a far cry from your typical Hogwarts student. She is very much an anti hero who engages in a lot of questionable behavior but strives to at least try to be a decent person. It is a rotating third person perspective where we will see things through the eyes of many different characters. The story primarily focusses on the Slytherin trio of Darling, Sebastian and Ominis. This is rated mature for violence. While there are some crushes confused and slow burning relationships typical for adolescence our protagonists have quite a bit on their plate so this is first and foremost and action adventure. There will be no nsfw.

Most students are thrilled to start their magical education at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry but the resourceful and enigmatic Miss Darling is not. When the Ministry decided her fate was to attend school as a 5th year she planned to soak up just enough skills to survive and return to the clandestine world she knows. Unfortunately her path to ultimate freedom and autonomy seems to run into endless obstacles of ancient magic secrets, unwanted responsibility and, most vexing of all, people she actually kinda likes. *** Book I of this fanfiction takes place during the events of Hogwarts Legacy, following the story of an original protagonist, the young Miss Darling. Much has been added and changed to tell the story of this character. Some of the events follow the game closely while others deviate significantly and some events have been added entirely. It is a new take and sets the stage for two following books that are already in the works. This is a transformative work based on the Harry Potter franchise by J.K. Rowling and Portkey Games Hogwarts Legacy. Consider this first book a fresh look at the game through an original lense presented in a literary format. The two books we have in the works following this one will be uncharted territory. *** What to Expect: Miss Darling comes from a mysterious but clearly dubious upbringing that makes her a far cry from your typical Hogwarts student.

Melinoë Black isn't your typical Slytherin. She's a brilliant manipulator with a mysterious past and an even darker future in her sights. Arriving for her fifth year, she's not looking for true friends or redemption; her sole aim is power, and she'll get it at any cost. What she doesn't expect is for her icy heart to thaw for him, Sebastian Sallow: charming, dangerous, and as damned as she is. Amidst forbidden spells, ghosts of the past, and brutal cruelties, Melinoë and Sebastian will descend into an abyss of dark magic and power games. With Ranrok's rise and the threat of Ancient Magic looming, the line between good and evil blurs. Will Melinoë and Sebastian fight to defend the Wizarding World, or will they surrender to the dark side? - From the Italian author of "Il lato oscuro | Sebastian Sallow" (8k visuals) and "ParselLove | Ominis Gaunt" (3k). - Please note: This story only partially follows Hogwarts Legacy, so playing the game is not necessary.

[COMPLETED] After the fall of Hogwarts, Ranrok's victory reshaped the world. Wizards and witches were branded like cattle, their magic bound to servitude and turned into "wells" - living vessels, drained and used by their human captors. Sebastian Sallow has known nothing but chains and ownership since the war's end. Bought. Broken. Discarded. Until the day a woman with storm-gray eyes claims him and everything begins to change. As secrets unravel and sparks ignite, survival becomes something far more dangerous. Because the woman who holds his leash may also hold the key to everything they've both lost. ༓☾༓༒༓☽༓ Instituted by the goblin-human coalition as a means of maintaining post-war order, the Branding Procedure replaced personal autonomy with structured containment. Wells - formerly wizards and witches - were marked with arcane sigils that both sealed their magic and allowed for controlled access by authorized humans. "A well that survives is more useful than one that breaks. Control does not require brutality. It requires comprehension." - General Aryndell

[COMPLETED] Some witches are born to cast spells. She was forged to survive them. When fifth-year Elaine Aryndell arrives at Hogwarts, she carries more than scars - she carries ancient magic she was never meant to wield. Trained to fight without spells and haunted by her past, Elaine is thrust into a growing war against goblins, poachers, and power long buried beneath the castle. As her bond with Sebastian Sallow deepens, so does the danger, within and without. With Hogwarts at risk and her soul unraveling, Elaine must decide: will she be the weapon everyone fears, or the witch who breaks the cycle? ༓☾༓༒༓☽༓ This is my take on the Hogwarts Legacy story, with lots of classroom banter and bonding between the students. Since we've all played the game and know what happens during the trials, the overall story will be shortened, merged, or even skipped. The focus here is more on character interactions and later what happens after the goblin attack. If you're coming from The Heart of The Well and don't want to go through everything I'd suggest you start with the Chapter 37: It Feels Like Dying (this is where the split happens)
