Between Shadows and Starlight
25 parts Ongoing MatureIn this slow-burn, enemies-to-lovers tale, Kai Lestrange and Hermione Granger are forced together by circumstance but held apart by everything they stand for.
Kai, the son of notorious Death Eaters, carries the legacy of his dark family, a reputation that haunts him as much as it shields him. With icy blue eyes, a jagged scar, and a magnetic but dangerous charm, he's the quintessential Slytherin: guarded, calculating, and fiercely loyal to his own survival. Hermione, on the other hand, is Gryffindor's brightest star-a Muggle-born student with unshakable values, a passion for justice, and a loyalty that runs deep. She views Kai as everything she opposes: arrogant, proud, and indifferent to the injustices in their world.
Through whispered conversations, accidental touches, and stolen glances, their rivalry evolves into a simmering attraction they can't ignore. Their hearts are tangled in secrets, fears, and family legacies that put them on opposite sides of a magical divide. As dark forces threaten to tear apart the wizarding world, Hermione and Kai find themselves not only drawn to each other but needing each other to survive.
In the end, they must decide: can they set aside their differences and bridge the gap between them, or will their love be torn apart by the shadows of the past?
