The Cottage Down The Hill

Despite claiming to be the direct desendances of Salazar Slytherin himself; The Most Noble and Most Ancient House of Gaunt found themselves in a very poor lifestyle due to the past generations expensive desires. Great embarassment was put upon the family not only because of this but also because they now have a member who didn't inherit the family's magical trait; Merope Gaunt, the only female left to the House of Gaunts, is a squib. Due to this, she has been abused severly by her father and her brother, yet she didn't give up because of her hope to change her own life. She eventually met a man named Tom Riddle and fell inlove with the very noble and handsome muggle who lives in a mansion over a hill.

Merope Gaunt knew that the man she loves will never look at her the same way she will; but as we all know it, she would make ways to change this - that hopefully, Tom Riddle would finally love the woman who currently resides at the cottage down the hill.
