Cassia Potter was never ordinary. Her magic came too early, too powerful, and far too connected to the whispers she pretends not to hear. After years at Durmstrang, she transfers to Hogwarts-only to be sorted into Slytherin, where her strength draws suspicion, envy... and the attention of Draco Malfoy. He hates her. Of course he does. She's a Potter with darkness in her blood and secrets she can't share-not with Harry, not with anyone. But hate shifts. Forbidden meetings turn into heated arguments, stolen moments, and dangerous sparks neither of them can ignore. And while Voldemort's voice grows louder in her mind, Cassia is forced to walk a razor-thin line between helping her brother and surviving the war pulling her under. She wasn't meant to belong to the light or the dark. She was meant to break the rules of both. And Draco Malfoy was never meant to care. Until he saw her.
