"You know Potter, there's a very fine line between perfection and illusion, people just can't notice it unless they look close enough."
-Alexandra Riddle
The Riddle siblings are far from perfect. They manipulate, they lie, they kill, they torment, they fight, they have tempers, they have unsolvable trauma that will never be forgotten, yet they have managed to create the illusion of perfection in order to cover the incredibly long list of terrible family secrets that they keep.
Their last name has always-or at least since their father became the terrible lord Voldemort-been one that makes most people shiver at just the thought of even interacting with them.
The oldest out of them, Lilith, died when she was twenty-two, how she died is the only secret that Thomas Riddle-the second oldest-wishes to keep in the dark from everyone-even his siblings.
But, he seems to underestimate his youngest sister's talent for finding out about things she's not supposed to because eight years after Lilith's death she stumbles upon his diary and decides to take a look. At first, she's not really willing to reveal the secret to the rest of their siblings, but when she starts to develop feelings for her family's biggest target, this secret may be the only thing that will get her out of this alive.
But how will the rest of the siblings handle the devastating truth about their sister's death? Will they forgive their brother for keeping it from them? Or will it make the family even more torn apart than it already was?

❝ I don't want to share you, Y/N, ❞
He leaned in a little closer, his voice dropping to a near whisper. ❝ It's not like you don't know what I mean. It's not just anyone who gets to look at you like that. ❞
❝ You're mine, Y/N. Don't forget that. ❞

In the halls of Hogwarts, power and temptation collide.
Y/N had always known Tom Riddle as a brilliant and enigmatic Slytherin with a dangerous aura. But when fate pulls you into his orbit, everything changes. As the line between friendship and something more blurs, you find yourself drawn into a world of intrigue, dark magic, and intense emotions-one that is as thrilling as it is perilous.
At first, it's easy to dismiss Tom's attention. His cold, calculated persona never betrays the vulnerability beneath the surface. But as the two of you grow closer, his possessiveness emerges-subtle, then all-consuming. His dark gaze follows you everywhere, a silent claim that no one else dares challenge.
As he slowly opens up to you in ways he never has with anyone else, you realize that you've become more than just an ally in his eyes-you've become his. And in a world where power is everything, you can't help but wonder just how far he'll go to keep you by his side.
Dark desires. Unspoken bonds. And the suffocating weight of a love bound by shadows.
Will you embrace the dangerous allure of the Dark Lord in the making? Or will his possessiveness be too much for you to bear?
