Hogwarts was never quiet when Luella Malfoy was around. The so-called Slytherin Princess had beauty sharp enough to cut and a tongue sharper still. With Draco at her side and half of Slytherin wrapped around her little finger, she seemed untouchable - adored, envied, and feared in equal measure.
But then there was Hermione Granger.
Brilliant, infuriating, stubborn Hermione. The Golden Girl of Gryffindor, a muggleborn witch who refused to bow to pureblood arrogance - and the one person Luella couldn't charm, outwit, or silence.
What begins as venomous rivalry in the corridors of Hogwarts quickly spirals into something neither of them expected. Banter turns into obsession, detentions into late-night arguments, and glares into stolen glances.
As the war outside grows darker and sides are drawn, Luella must confront more than her family's legacy: she must face the girl who challenges everything she has ever believed. Because somewhere between hatred and desire, a dangerous truth begins to bloom.
Enemies. Rivals. Lovers?
Even a serpent can be tempted by the brightest flame.
