Allurement | Sebastian Sallow
The year is 1892. Liya Chang, a Slytherin student in Hogwarts, possesses a rare ability to harness ancient magic. Yet, as the powerful force surges within her, she realises that this power is a double edged sword - she must quickly learn to control it, before it controls her. On the other side of the spectrum, Sebastian Sallow will do whatever it takes to find a cure for his sister, Anne, who was brutally cursed - even if that meant meddling in the dark arts. An unlikely friendship was forged between two fierce academic rivals. Liya and Sebastian, like two moths drawn to the flame, find themselves navigating a dangerous path together. Can they defeat the adversaries that lie in their way, or will they succumb to the magic they failed to control? Surely they should know that power corrupts... Power absolutely corrupts.

The Best Kind of Madness
Sebastian Sallow and Gracelyn Marwood have always been partners in crime, best friends, and the source of each other's greatest mischief. But as they enter their final year at Hogwarts, something shifts. Teasing glances linger too long, friendly duels grow heated, and unspoken words threaten to break the delicate balance they've built. Sebastian is usually confident and a flirt, yet utterly infuriating when it comes to romance. Gracelyn is self-confident, radiant, and yet only one who can make him falter in his steps. When jealousy sparks, secret feelings unravel, and choices lead them down unexpected paths, they're forced to confront the undeniable-this has never been just friendship. From the tension-filled halls of Hogwarts to stolen moments in the Undercroft, from whispered promises by the lake to the life waiting beyond the castle walls, their love is a slow-burning, all-consuming fire. But Sebastian's past haunts him, and his greatest fear isn't the darkness he once embraced-it's his own mind telling him he doesn't deserve her. Will he finally let himself have the future he never thought possible? Or will his fear of falling cost him the one person who's always been willing to catch him? Friends to something more. The best kind of madness. *BONUS AU CHAPTERS AT THE END*Complete![AFTER THE CHAOS - The Devil's Memories [Volume 1] Sebastian Sallow](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/387597969-256-k394097.jpg)

There, amid despair and punishment, he receives a mysterious offer from a guard, an arrangement that could shift everything.

The Unraveling
Our bond was formed long before we met, as if a string had been tied to our wrists, connecting us at birth... It is something beyond us, beyond this life... We were destined to meet, destined to love, destined to be together, right now, right here... Our bond was formed long before we met, Infinite, never unraveling. If you told Adelia Miltin a few years ago that witches and wizards existed, she would have called you mad. Yet, here she was, about to enter a school meant for aspiring witches and wizards as a new 7th year student. She thought her only worries were going to be taking care of her ailing grandmother, not learning how to fly a broom. Not only will she have to traverse through the halls of Hogwarts, but she will also have to navigate her new life filled with Ancient Magic, budding friendships, and an insufferable Slytherin named Sebastian Sallow. If you told Sebastian Sallow that his semester would start with a failed duel on his part, he would have called you a liar. Yet, here he was, named second-best by the hands of a new student, someone who could hardly hold their wand correctly. He thought his biggest worries this year were going to be discovering what happened to his parents, but now he also must fight for his title as best duelist back from an incompetent Hufflepuff named Adelia Miltin. ------- This is a slow burn Sebastian x fMC fic that will explore life before the curse and develop characters and relationships. This may be a slow read with a few episodic chapters since I want the reader to feel like they are going to school with the characters. There will be plenty of fluff in the beginning and angst in later chapters. While the fic does follow the main storyline from the game, I have added/removed/changed events/characters to suit my story. Please read the warnings and rights BEFORE starting this story! Thank you for your support! 😊
