Serpent's Embrace | A Sebastian Sallow Story

Madeline Nott should have been the most brilliant witch of her age, a pureblood, and the daughter of a rather cunning Slytherin and a brilliant Ravenclaw. Her parents watched in delight as she devoured more books on spells before the age of eleven than any of the other children in her hamlet. She was set up perfectly to be the arrogant Pure Blood princess of Hogwarts. But the letter never showed up when she was eleven. Heartbroken and thinking herself a Squib, the acceptance letter came seven years late, landing her in Hogwarts at the age of eighteen.

Desperate to prove herself to her classmates, and the rather infuriating Sebastian Sallow from the hamlet who'd tormented her for years, Madeline finds herself taking on more challenges than most witches or wizards would ever face in their life. She knows that if anyone was made for this, surely it was her. Ancient Magic, the expectations of those around her, a wizard desperate for her powers, and a fierce rivalry with her fellow Slytherin, Madeline doesn't shy away from any of it.

There was just one problem left.

Her best friend, Anne Sallow, was cursed. Dying of the pain, Madeline and Sebastian must race against an impossible to cure curse and not rip each others throats out in the process.
