Who Will Stop the Rain by KeepCalm934

How far will you go to save someone you love? The Wizarding World is being terrorised by the 'Origami Killer', whose victims are all discovered drowned, four days after they go missing. Seemingly the only clues are an origami figure, and a narcissus, discovered on each of their bodies. The wizarding public is gripped by fear and paranoia. The Aurors seem no closer to identifying a credible suspect. And now another potential victim has disappeared - Scorpius Malfoy. As the clock ticks against suspicion and anxiety, three familiar faces are drawn into the investigation - each following their own leads in a desperate search for Scorpius. Each of them knows what the cost will be if they don't reach him in time - and they will soon be forced to ask themselves just how far they are prepared to go...

Something Wicked This Way Comes by ProfessorOfTwiggs

Book 1: Ozwald is expecting his last year of Hogwarts to go perfectly well, like the other years before, well... almost. After a difficult summer, it was hard to keep up and keep his head held high. The only thing that's keeping him going is what's keeping him on his toes. Mass murderer Sirius Black is on the loose and Ozwald wants to solve that mystery, but will he be able to when he is also faced with Professor Snape dropping hints at a werewolf problem, and Professor Lupin tasking him with keeping an eye on Harry Potter?

Black Rose by Hauntingblu_

SPECIAL Dark MM romance Raven Hethens Miller never belonged in the world he was born into. Raised by wealthy, controlling parents who demanded he follow in their footsteps, he rejected their life of power and privilege for something far darker-crime, chaos, and the adrenaline rush of solving murders. When he finally cuts ties and moves into an abandoned, modern-built house on the outskirts of the city, he expects nothing but silence and solitude. But instead, he finds something watching him. Every night. Every step. Every moment alone. A black rose appears at his doorstep, and everywhere, delicate yet haunting. A message. A warning. A claim. Raven isn't afraid-he's too arrogant to be afraid. But as the shadows stretch behind him and the eerie feeling coils tighter, he knows this isn't just paranoia. Someone is there. Lurking. Waiting. And he's always being watched. The beast has been hidden in the darkness for years. A ghost in the underworld. A beast in the shadows. A man who built an empire of blood and vengeance. The house Raven moved into? It haunted Raven more with black roses. And now, so is Raven. No matter how much the detective resists, no matter how many clues he pieces together, there's one truth he can't escape: The beast doesn't just want him. He will own him.

Eternal Despair (Harry Potter/OC insert) by psyku0

𝗢𝗿𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗵𝗼𝗲𝗻𝗶𝘅 After enduring the harrowing ordeal of last year's final task, Enzo had seen what few dared to believe: the dark, twisted resurrection of Voldemort. His memories of that night haunted him-flickering shadows, the chilling whispers, and the oppressive weight of fear that had gripped him as he watched the Dark Lord rise again. Yet, despite his clear, unshakable recounting of every terrifying detail, no one believed him. The newspapers painted him as a disturbed, attention-seeking boy, further isolating him. And in the silent corners of his mind, Enzo grappled with the dreadful knowledge that Voldemort was out there, lurking, growing stronger-and he alone understood the darkness that was creeping ever closer.

Evelyn Riddle and the Chamber of Secrets by eurydices_wife

"Curse you, Dad." After Harry basically murdered a man who had Voldemort on the back of his head, I thought this year couldn't be any crazier. Well, Petrified students and the Heir of Slytherin proved me wrong. After an ordinary Halloween night went terribly wrong, I knew this year wasn't going to be normal. Rumors about the Chamber of Secrets and theories about who was the Heir of Slytherin started to arise, but it seemed that most people were suspecting my best friend, Harry Potter - which meant we only had so long to prove it wasn't him before the school closed down. Illegal potion brewing, a suspicious diary, and spiders hiding a giant secret - you bet this year was insane. [ book two of the riddle's daughter series ]

No More Walls (A Dramione Fanfic) by sarasb2324

Hermione Granger has kept walls up around her heart and brain almost all of her life. It is better than getting hurt, which she has experienced a few times. Why the hell would she bring down those walls again, for ANYONE? No point. Draco Malfoy is a similar case, though he's stuck in a marriage forced upon him. Something big must happen in order to change it all, and it won't be pretty... (This is also published on AO3 under my username sarab2324.)
