She doesn't know why he shows up once a month looking like he's gone through hell, but by healing him, she finds herself falling for someone her family would never approve of.
As her brother Regulus is brought into dark magic, and her future seems to be already written into the Black family archives, Anastasia has to make a decision: to guide Regulus from his dark path or to leave it all behind in hopes of a happier life.

When her uncle asks her to house a defector from the magical war he's involved in, Finn agrees reluctantly despite her concerns that the presence of Regulus Black in her home will disrupt the careful peace she's been cultivating for years.

Madness | R.Black
Elara June Lupin was the beacon of light in her family - full of laughter, wildflowers in her hair, and a heart that burned like the summer sun. She was brightness and bravery, the kind of girl who believed in hope even when the world told her not to. Regulus Black was the Slytherin Prince - cold-eyes and silver-tongued, all sharp edges and secrets. A boy raised on pure-blood legacy and quiet survival, with a future that was already carved into stone. When they're paired together in fifth-year Potions, everyone expects the worst - light and shadow rarely mix. But slowly, between simmering cauldrons and late-night study sessions, something shifts. A glance held too long. A lingered touch of hands. A truth shared in the dark. As the world around them begins to fracture under the weight of a growing war, Elara and Regulus are forced to choose: loyalty to the names they were born with, or the love that defies it all. Because sometimes, the brightest stars burn out too soon. And sometimes, love is the most dangerous rebellion of all.

All The Things We Rise From
Remus Lupin x OC // Marauder's Era - Book II All The Things We Rise From Some grief is quiet. Some choices are louder than war. The war has begun - not with a bang, but with disappearances, lies, and names whispered in fear. Hogwarts is no longer safe, and neither are the people Artemis Black loves. Torn between loyalty and survival, Artemis walks deeper into the shadows she once tried to escape. Alongside Remus, she learns what it means to fight for something - and what it costs to lose it. But as secrets unravel and lines blur, even love begins to fracture under the weight of what they cannot save. Sirius Black is arrested for a crime he didn't commit. Regulus vanishes into the dark. And Artemis? She keeps going. Because someone has to. Remus is older now. Quieter. Still haunted - but this time, by what he might lose, not what he already has. As the war pulls them apart and back together, he and Artemis must decide whether love is something you protect... or something you let burn, if it means lighting the way forward. This is a story of second chances and final losses. Of letters unsent, wounds unspoken, and a war that leaves nothing untouched. Of a girl who never wanted to be a hero - and became one anyway. The fire didn't end them. But rising from it might.Complete
