Riddle x Original Male Character C. Riddle x Draco Malfoy ⚠️ My OC is not an overpowered Mary Sue. She will have faults, she will make stupid mistakes, she isn't perfect, she isn't naturally ultra sexy with glossy hair or the most powerful person in the room. She's meant to be vulnerable, human, believable- especially at the beginning as she is just a child. If that doesn't interest you then skip this book. Warnings: SA, alcohol, cigarettes, abuse. Read at your own discretion.
