"She was disgustingly humble; an oddity in Tom's arrogant mind." This is a story about the life of Tom Marvolo Riddle from the orphanage to right before the first Wizarding War but with a twist. There was a girl who was humble, beautiful, and intelligent who cared for Tom Riddle in a way he had never experienced before. It was not necessarily love, but something close to it. Still, Tom Riddle despised her and hated how selfless she was. It caused people to use and hurt her, whether he cared for her well-being or simply thought her ridiculous for not standing up for herself? We may never know. There may have been a time when Tom Riddle did find himself caring for the girl, but something happened due to an untimely event. This event would lead him to go on a killing rampage. Because of these uncountable murders of both wizards and muggles, the first Wizarding War broke out only to end on October 31, 1981, along with what was thought to be the last of Lord Voldemort. • What other readers think about this story: "Omg I've only read the description and I'm already obsessed!" ~Maria120_ "This is very random, but i really love your writing style, it flows smoothly and is really easy to read." ~hoodace "This is beautiful." ~ MetaphoricallyEm • All characters and settings belong to J.K Rowling except for additional (obvious) things.

"From a very young age he realized it was good to have someone to vouch for you, to believe you were good - especially if you enjoyed doing bad things." Tom Riddle couldn't love. There was no changing that, but was it possible for someone to love a boy as twisted as Tom? Gwyn Phi loved Tom Riddle all her life, from infants in one crib to the day he left for Hogwarts and never truly came back. From Wools Orphanage to the Battle of Hogwarts, Gwyn and Tom's relationship set an unimaginable story in motion, touching lives across decades.

Elizabeth Marin was one of the most intelligent students in her year. The person stopping her from being the best? Tom Riddle. Elizabeth was prepared to go to any lengths to defeat Tom in being the top of every class - she was sure she'd make it. She was zealous. But what will happen when she gets paired with him more than she hopes to? Will 'zealous' become 'jealous'?

Eleanor Parkinson is returning for the beginning of the end, every previous challenge nonexistent in comparison to what she faces from this point on. The summer was cold and winter will be bitter, for a war is brewing, ready to spill over at any given day and Eleanor is in the middle of it all. However, she isn't alone and out of all jurisdiction and in total secret, Eleanor begins to join together her closest friends in the hopes they will be stronger together and with the help of those she'd least expect it from, half of her world becomes entirely secret and out of any jurisdiction. There is another half to her though, the one that belongs entirely to someone else: Tom Riddle. The one she has dipped into darkness with, the one whose soul is around her finger, the one who relentlessly fights her away at any given moment. As the rifts among her Secret Order become more prominent, she finds herself more lonely day by day and as the war draws nearer, she finds herself standing by herself. When Tom Riddle takes advantage of her dwindling state of mind, Eleanor might just be tempted to take a stronger dose of the poison he is if it means winning this war. She will not rest until her family is safe and she will never stop fighting until Tom is off his pedestal high above her. But when the dust is settled and Eleanor and Tom are the ones left standing, what will come of her next when he just may be the one standing on the other side of the battlefield next?

"We are a race that seeks goodness, yet live for evil. There is no good or evil in this world, Robins; only power and those too weak to seek it." -Tom Riddle Ten years ago, she lived as Addie Robins.

An Heir of Slytherin, A Prankster, and A Power Play-- all part of the final act of the tragedy. One cannot live while the other is alive. The prophecy has been made. Now the doom unfolds. **** Cover by the fabulous @IIWolfieII Please check out her stories, she has really good books :D
