Love is blind - a Hogwarts Legacy fanfiction
" 'Promise me,' I said, as I started to notice his body just inches away from mine. He frowned as he looked down on me. 'Promise you what, Ava?' That way of saying my name- again. My breath was shaky as I whispered, closer to hip lips. 'Promise you won't do it. Promise that you won't marry her.' He lent a bit more forward and I felt his also racing heart beat against my own chest. I couldn't bear having him so close, not being able to touch his lips with mine before he said the words. I could see in his milky eyes that his mind was getting more blank by the feeling of my fingers that had found his hair. 'Please,' I asked, and he took one, long breath. 'I promise, I will-' but that was all I needed before I pressed my eager lips against his, gripping his hair more tightly and pulling him closer than I ever had before." Ava Dijkstra is in her last year of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, the year she must decide how she will fulfill the rest of her life; stay close to her muggle roots or choose another, magical path. As she find herself struggle with her closest friend Sebastian, because of their dark past together, there is also another feeling. A feeling toward the man she never even liked the slightest before. Ominis just seems to have his ways that might win her over. A story about troubled friendship, pureblood obsession, arranged marriage, a little smud and so much more plot twists to come. Enjoy!

[50k - complete] Euphemia Black has problems: she's starting Hogwarts at fifteen, for one thing. Oh, and she accidentally travelled 100 years into the past, for another. Her new best friend is obsessed with the Dark Arts, and she's starting to develop feelings for his best friend... It's a mess. But maybe fate sent her here for a reason. Can Euphemia stop Sebastian from spiraling into madness? Can she find a way to save Anne from a deadly curse? Endgame Ominis/MC, not quite canon-compliant, angst/fluff/humor, references to 80's music, rated M for smut. Author's notes: I couldn't play Hogwarts Legacy and simply move on with my life, so I wrote this. It is completely self-indulgent and riddled with hamfisted references to HP canon and chock full of dialogue stolen shamelessly from the video game. I don't even care. Special thanks to my beta brightened, who is extremely talented and smart, and without whom I'd probably never finish this thing. You're the best.Complete
