" You are just like a succulent rose; Beautiful but if you touch it, the thorns will hurt you."

Victoria Simmers was used to being the smartest person in her class. Over the summer of 1944, Victoria packed up from France a few months before Allies liberated France. She had to leave Beauxbatons for Hogwarts during her last year. Victoria's parents had to stay behind to lead 'normal' lives in the eyes of Nazi extremists. All of this is in the back of her mind as she meets one of the terrifying young wizards of her time, Tom Riddle.

Join Victoria as she heads into Hogwarts during a time that will be written into history forever.

❝ I don't want to share you, Y/N, ❞ He leaned in a little closer, his voice dropping to a near whisper. ❝ It's not like you don't know what I mean. It's not just anyone who gets to look at you like that. ❞ ❝ You're mine, Y/N. Don't forget that. ❞ ~~~ In the halls of Hogwarts, power and temptation collide. Y/N had always known Tom Riddle as a brilliant and enigmatic Slytherin with a dangerous aura. But when fate pulls you into his orbit, everything changes. As the line between friendship and something more blurs, you find yourself drawn into a world of intrigue, dark magic, and intense emotions-one that is as thrilling as it is perilous. At first, it's easy to dismiss Tom's attention. His cold, calculated persona never betrays the vulnerability beneath the surface. But as the two of you grow closer, his possessiveness emerges-subtle, then all-consuming. His dark gaze follows you everywhere, a silent claim that no one else dares challenge. As he slowly opens up to you in ways he never has with anyone else, you realize that you've become more than just an ally in his eyes-you've become his. And in a world where power is everything, you can't help but wonder just how far he'll go to keep you by his side. Dark desires. Unspoken bonds. And the suffocating weight of a love bound by shadows. Will you embrace the dangerous allure of the Dark Lord in the making? Or will his possessiveness be too much for you to bear?
VALEDICTORIAN, EGO TE PROVOCO // Tom Marvolo Riddle by emblematicae
6 parts Ongoing Mature
 Impossibly close to donning the title of the most promising and unfathomably gifted protégé Hogwarts has ever laid eyes upon, the wizarding world would be foolish to ignore such an accomplished scholar. Procuring a seat at the grand table alongside every and all great wizards and witches preceding him, his name would maintain a revered longevity surpassing history itself-Tom Riddle is second to none, none but you. He stands as a salutatorian before you; his clever nature and wisdom beyond his years, extensive honors, accolades that sing nothing but his praises, and noble laurels vanish into a vapid nothingness compared to you.  It was less noticeable when the both of you were much younger. Any semblance of academic rivalry was diminished by the fact you were far too sick and weak to even entertain him with faux competition (even if the winner was obvious). Years have passed since then, and the two of you have pursued your own respective aspirations that could not be further apart, all the while just barely preserving your cherished bond. And as Tom worked hard to curate his perfect, idealistic image, and brilliance of unreachable heights, you remained as sick and weak as you once were. And yet, you still best him. Tom cannot escape your shadow, and nothing has changed since your shared youth with the troubled boy. He can continue to excuse it with the fact that you are older than him, one year difference and one year ahead (if only for the sake of his bruised ego), but the truth of the matter is: you've always been better, haven't you? Valedictorian, I challenge you. © 2025 emblematicae
