"I call him the devil, because he makes me want to sin. And every time he knocks, I can't help but let him in."
    
    The story is set in the year 1953. Tom Riddle has been working at Borgin and Burke's for 8 years now, continuing his research in regards to the Founders of Hogwarts and searching for their relics to create his next horcruxes. 
    
    He enjoys his privacy, and his quiet work life, and becomes perplexed when a young witch begins frequenting the shop. She's careful around Tom, ensuring she does not give away the information she is withholding from him. Tom grows annoyed rather quickly, and frustrated when he realizes his charm does not work on the girl. She remains friendly with him, but keeps her distance nonetheless, which begins to irritate Tom. 
    
    He discovers that she gets a job at pub down the street from the shop, and he grows increasingly uncomfortable, getting the feeling that she was watching him. And although he would never admit it to her, he found her very attractive. He becomes to realize that deep down, he still has primal human desires that he intends to fulfill, specifically with her, but she hides a great secret that could prove highly fatal if it were to ever slip from her lips. 
    
    Thankfully for Tom, his quick wit and his silver tongue do not fail him, which will eventually have the young witch spilling her deepest and darkest secrets.
