Fate plays cruel games, but to Althea Lynch it played the worst of them all.

The Lynch dynasty, an overly wealthy wizard family, continues to survive unscathed through the ages. However, they have been plagued by an unfortunate death. The mother of the family has been assasinated by the Alliance on the Ministry of Magic. After that the only daughter of the family, after being homeschooled all her life, decides to study at Hogwarts School of Wizardry and Witchcraft, a magical school which hides terrible stories on its walls and certainly terrible people.

Althea, however, is not an ordinary witch and may her past define her more than she could have ever thought. She has a power that not only one man longs to harness but one another boy from her age. Was the war a person, it would not be Ares, it would be Tom Riddle.

Secrets unravel, human relationships dissolve and rebuild, and Althea Lynch must confront not only all the dangers that will cross her path but also her own self.

"You promised me that you wouldn't leave." "Tom...I never left." ~.+*+.~ Fate is Cruel. Truly. What if the dark Tom Riddle was never evil from the start? What if something important to him vanished and made him become a monster? What if he had a lover that he never forgot about? A lover that was separated from him too early... ~.+*+.~ (Y/N) is an ordinary student at Hogwarts who struggles with Potions. Until one day, she finds the perfect study partner to revise with: a Slytherin boy with a closed heart and always a few metres away from her. He knows nothing about love and affection, but a girl steps into his world and starts to make it shift. But as their love gets stronger, (Y/N)'s fate draws near, and the boy's destiny to become the Dark Lord inches closer and closer every minute. Will the two have a happy ending? Or will an unexpected borderline cut the two apart forever? ~.+*+.~ If you're looking for a non-toxic and sad-love relashionship with Tom Riddle, this may be the Fanfiction for you! This Fanfiction contains some angst caused by separation and love, and is not about dark love. Instead, it is about sad love. I own none of the characters (except for some random ones I made), GIFs, and background settings. This Fanfiction is based on the Harry Potter series by J.K Rowling.
