5 parts Ongoing MatureAt Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, every student's story begins with a Sorting Hat. For Octavia Vermillion, it was supposed to be simple-she was destined for Gryffindor, just like every Vermillion before her. But when the Hat whispers Slytherin, her entire world tilts off its axis.
Now branded the first of her bloodline to wear green and silver, Octavia must navigate the murky depths of ambition, legacy, and power. Determined to prove her worth, she's drawn into a world of secret clubs, whispered alliances, and a name that carries both reverence and fear-Tom Riddle.
As Octavia's hunger for greatness deepens, so does her fascination with the boy who embodies it. But at Hogwarts, power never comes without a price-and every choice carves its own mark.
A dark Hogwarts fanfiction set in the 1940s, The Serpent's Mark weaves ambition, intellect, and temptation into a story about legacy, identity, and the dangerous pull of brilliance.
✨ Ambition has its price. Power has its mark.
