Heart of Gaunt --Merope Gaunt.
(COMPLETE) Merope Gaunt.
The mother of Lord Voldemort.
To many, she is a squib, to others, a tragic figure who ensnared Thomas Riddle's heart with dark magic. Her legacy is one of sorrow, betrayal, and the shadows of a name feared by all.
Even Albus Dumbledore, the wisest wizard of his time, never truly unraveled the mystery of Merope's life.
But what if there was more to her story? What if, before the darkness consumed her, she knew love? What if the woman who was discarded, feared, and forgotten once held a life full of hope, a chance at happiness?
Beneath the weight of her tragic fate, buried beneath the ashes of war, is a story of a woman whose potential was never realized, whose heart was once tender and full of dreams.
This is the story of Merope Gaunt, and how the world's cruelest judgments may have eclipsed the love she once held, and the life she might have had.
