Shadows & Secrets | Sebastian Sallow

In the hallowed halls of Hogwarts, a tale of forbidden magic, unresolved rivalries, and uncharted love unfolds. Aurora "Rory" Thorne, a Gryffindor through and through, is known for her unparalleled skill in dueling and her natural leadership as the captain and seeker of the Quidditch team. Her final year at Hogwarts takes an unexpected turn when her best friend, Anne Sallow, mysteriously falls ill over the summer with a condition that defies magical cure.

As Rory navigates her final year, she finds herself entangled with Sebastian Sallow, Anne's brother, known to her mostly through their longstanding rivalry. Sebastian, cheeky and charming yet desperate to save his sister, delves into the forbidden realms of dark magic, keeping Anne's condition a secret from Rory to protect her.

The revelation of Anne's illness and Sebastian's secret quest thrust Rory into a world of shadows and secrets she had vowed never to enter. Bound by her fierce loyalty to Anne and her own moral compass, Rory reluctantly allies with Sebastian, embarking on a perilous journey that challenges their beliefs, tests their courage, and exposes the fragile line between right and wrong.

Complicating matters is Omnis Gaunt, a reserved yet loyal friend who harbors his own feelings for Rory. His deep sense of justice clashes with Sebastian's dark methods, creating a rift that Rory struggles to mend. As the trio navigates the dangers of their quest, a love triangle emerges, fraught with jealousy, betrayal, and unspoken desires.
