The Shadow & the Light

Every Potter fan loves to hate Voldemort. But, would you hate Tom Riddle?

Soleis (Suh-less) Dolohov is an unlikely Ravenclaw living in the Slytherin dorms at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. She is the sister of Antonin Dolohov, who spends his time with the Hogwarts golden child, Tom Riddle. She doesn't really like Tom, but he actually only bothers her for one reason: she doesn't understand him at all. He's a mess of conflicting characteristics, and she can't figure him out. And, as a Ravenclaw, it's infuriating.

Tom, though, is more concerned about figuring out a way to enlist Soleis's help with a new project of his: creating horcruxes. He has spent time observing Soleis and believes that, with her intelligence, she is his best option for success.

Beginning a strained alliance , the two start discovering the true cost of creating such an object. Now, it's just a matter of who's willing to pay the price.

Will Soleis follow Tom into the darkness? Will her friends find themselves engulfed in Tom's secret project as well? Will Tom and Soleis find something other than a forced tolerance of each other?

Don't get me wrong, Voldy sucks. He's a terrible person with unimaginable greed and such a vast disconnect from humanity that it's almost incomprehensible. So, as you're reading, enjoy it for what it is: a non-canon constructed backstory detailing a boy infused with evil, his struggle to choose humanity over power, and a girl who must now make that same choice for herself.

I hope you enjoy the book! All world creation and stuff is credited to J.K. Rowling, obviously, and all of the Harry Potter stories she came up with over the years. Also, there's some potentially sensitive topics, just as a warning.
