Not everything at Hogwarts is in the rulebook. Cassia Vale is everything a Slytherin should be. She's sharp witted, cunning, emotionally untouchable, and dangerously well dressed. With her ruthless charm and effortless control, she's carved a place for herself at Hogwarts that's equal parts respect and mystery. Her life is a careful game of power, perception, and never, ever letting anyone in too close. That is, until two chaotic Gryffindors, Fred and George Weasley, start prying at the wit she's spent years perfecting. And when a cryptic note appears in her Potions textbook inviting her to a midnight meeting she never asked to join, Cassia finds herself caught in the web of The Assembly -- a secret student society built on influence, old magic, and dangerous ambition. As the world she has spent years perfecting starts to unravel, Cassia must navigate shifting loyalties, quiet rivalries, and the growing tension between the life she's built and the one she never planned for. With Blaise Zabini watching her too closely, and George Weasley throwing her further off balance with every smirk and smart remark, the real question becomes this; How long can she keep playing the game before the game starts playing her?

[18 + COMPLETED] Three men, two centuries, one house. S U M M E R 2 0 2 1 Rosecrest Manor has been in Asher's family for generations, but he's done dealing with the headache of a property. He just needs to get his soon-to-be ex-wife on board with the plan to sell the place. So Asher takes her there, intent on saying goodbye to the country mansion. But they soon get lost in a rabbit hole of writings by a nineteenth-century woman, Lady Whitley. And as they spend the day reading, Asher realizes that it is harder to let go of history than he thought. S U M M E R 1 8 6 8 Simon Pearce has been looking forward to Lord and Lady Trotten's summer house party for months. His only interest in the event is that Lady Whitley Ash will be in attendance, and he is determined to make her his. Unfortunately for him, however, Lady Whitley is an avid writer who only wants to get close to Simon's mother-the renowned gossip columnist, Madame Mischief. Not only that, but Lady Whitley keeps confusing Simon with his scheming, identical brother. Sawyer Pearce has most certainly not been looking forward to this ridiculous house party. He has no interest in affairs of the heart or large gatherings of people. But forced to attend, he devotes his summer to helping Simon woo the lady of his dreams. And he's also found the right partner to help him with it: Lady Whitley's sister, the equally unromantic and daring adventuress, Lady Blair Ash. But Sawyer is soon damned to admit that he might like his partner just a little too much. In the sizzling heat of summer, will either twin brother come out unscorched by the Ash sisters?
