Iris Selwyn doesn't know how she ended up at Wools Orphanage, nor does she know much about anything, she learns when she meets Tom; a closed-off boy with an unsettling air about him, and further more, the boy all the other children are terrified of. For some reason, however, Tom seems to tolerate Iris. Why? She doesn't know- but it's clear that nothing good can come from this unlikely friendship.. but it's her, so of course she befriends him anyway, despite the insanity that shines through not long after.
Extract:
(Tom) "Stop being so naive. You forget how long I have been at this orphanage. Did you never stop to think why I have not simply wasted away just as the others have? It's because I have leaned how to survive, Selwyn. I alone have managed to make something of myself. I alone have changed my fate."
Extract (2):
"He wasn't a good person" she said simply. Her body felt heavy, suddenly, as if her limbs and facial muscles had tiny weights attached to them.
"Neither am I" Tom said, watching her steadily.
She was quiet for a moment, before equaling his gaze.
"I know that"

And you start to realize that there is something very wrong with your friend. As he gets older, he becomes more manipulative, possessive and twisted. He starts to use his powers and his looks to control those around him-including you. Eventually, Tom's true nature is revealed, but by then, it's too late for you. You fall under his spell, completely under his control, and there is nothing anyone could do to save you from the darkness that awaits. *~*~* ♡ A slowburn/sociopathic/dark Tom Marvolo Riddle x F!reader book that centers around both reader's perspective and Tom's fall into madness/rise in influence and power.

"𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞?" He scoffs, black eyes emotionless. "𝐈 𝐝𝐨𝐧'𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬." She was a girl born in the midst of a war. She was the forgotten child. The sister of the girl who sacrificed herself, saving the boy with the lightning bolt scar. He'd come in the night, ripping away everyone she had ever loved. He'd taken away her family. He'd shattered her beyond repair. "𝐋𝐨𝐯𝐞?" She asks, blue eyes hard. "𝐈𝐭 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐲𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞." She was raised to only know neglect. She was raised to only feel pain. She had been thrown away by her own blood. No one ever paused to ask for her wellbeing. No one paused to make sure she was all right. "𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐘 𝐀𝐖𝐀𝐘 𝐅𝐑𝐎𝐌 𝐌𝐄!" "𝐍𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫." She was raised to know anger. She grew with only pain. She was raised with no family. She was being choked with a fiery chain. A fiery chain of loneliness A chain of regret. A flaming chain of loathing. An overwhelming drown-age of emotional debt. "𝐈 𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮." "𝐈 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐧𝐨𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐥𝐞𝐬𝐬." No one expected her to be more than just a poor orphan.

Marked by Desire
❝ I don't want to share you, Y/N, ❞ He leaned in a little closer, his voice dropping to a near whisper. ❝ It's not like you don't know what I mean. It's not just anyone who gets to look at you like that. ❞ ❝ You're mine, Y/N. Don't forget that. ❞ ~~~ In the halls of Hogwarts, power and temptation collide. Y/N had always known Tom Riddle as a brilliant and enigmatic Slytherin with a dangerous aura. But when fate pulls you into his orbit, everything changes. As the line between friendship and something more blurs, you find yourself drawn into a world of intrigue, dark magic, and intense emotions-one that is as thrilling as it is perilous. At first, it's easy to dismiss Tom's attention. His cold, calculated persona never betrays the vulnerability beneath the surface. But as the two of you grow closer, his possessiveness emerges-subtle, then all-consuming. His dark gaze follows you everywhere, a silent claim that no one else dares challenge. As he slowly opens up to you in ways he never has with anyone else, you realize that you've become more than just an ally in his eyes-you've become his. And in a world where power is everything, you can't help but wonder just how far he'll go to keep you by his side. Dark desires. Unspoken bonds. And the suffocating weight of a love bound by shadows. Will you embrace the dangerous allure of the Dark Lord in the making? Or will his possessiveness be too much for you to bear?Complete
Before He Was Voldemort (A Tom Riddle Fanfiction)
Have you ever wondered what life at Hogwarts was really like for Tom Riddle, known by his darker moniker Lord Voldemort? How did he manage juggling life as a student while simultaneously plotting his immortality and tyrannical reign over the Wizarding world? Corinne Carrow, a shy Slytherin witch with a famous family lineage, was certainly not your typical cunning Slytherin. She was the outcast of her very reputable Pureblood family. Throughout her years at Hogwarts, Corinne wasn't fond of socializing much among her peers. That is, until she reached her 6th year, when fate led her to reestablish a friendship with the notorious and tragically handsome Tom Riddle. A complete opposite of Corinne, Tom was an intimidating and brooding character with expertise in the art of persuasion and manipulation. Though for some strange reason, Corinne found herself quite intrigued by him. While everyone else feared Tom and viewed him as potentially dangerous, Corinne overlooked this and saw straight through his dark ways. You may think you know the tragic story of the troubled orphan boy who would eventually become the most feared and immensely powerful Dark wizard in the world. But what you don't know is that the young Dark Lord happened to have one particular companion; one he may have even loved. So if Tom Riddle inadvertently defied his own loveless nature despite all impossibility, what made him not change his ways for Corinne? What made him instead enter a much darker route in life that led him to become the Dark Lord? This is the alternate story of Tom Marvolo Riddle, before he was Voldemort.Complete
