"There isn't a single word on this Earth that can describe how radiant you are. I am certain that a vision of you inspired the heavens, that one glimpse of you would make God realize why he created man. You are a divine angel and I am but a humble man begging on his knees for a taste of you."

. . .

Elio Nott is perhaps one of the most well-known bachelors in the Wizarding World. He's dashing, charming, and never serious. Which is why when Elio turns twenty-three with no signs of settling down, his parents decide to force him into the world of pureblood balls and matchmaking, much to his chagrin. The only perks are the *many* elegant females and, perhaps, the spiked punch. Elio hates it all.

Until he goes to the stupid Malfoy Masquerade Ball only to find the most beautiful woman he's ever seen. But before he can even get her name, she disappears.

Annalise Riddle is quiet, slow to trust, and prefers the company of her piano to one of her peers any day. As the daughter of the Dark Lord, she is constantly in danger so Annie spends her days shyly hidden away for fear of being harmed by one of his many enemies. So she isn't expecting to go to a ball and meet a stunning boy with grey eyes and a charming grin that takes away all of her defenses. Panicking, Annie leaves and vows to never see him again.

Until he shows up another night to search for her.

A Game of Cat and Mouse tells of a woman afraid of love and a man so determined to have her that he will stop at nothing. This book contains instant attraction, billionaire-esque playboy MMC, a sprinkle of dark romance, cinderella retelling, brother's rival, "he falls first AND harder", forced proximity, and lots of male pining. 

This is a spinoff of the Slytherin Boys series. It is recommended that you read my books Smoke & Stars and Darkness & Devotion for an idea of the character's parents and their backstories, though it is not required. This story does NOT take place at Hogwarts!All Rights Reserved

AHILYA (SLYTHERIN BOYS MATE) by sev_xoxo

Slytherin boys: Tom, Mattheo, Blaise, Theodore, Lorenzo and Draco. TOM and MATTHEO are NOT RELATED EACH ACT CAN BE READ AS A STANDALONE. consider five extremely rich and powerful boys. add Greek god like bodies and fatally attractive faces. add a soulmate bond linking them all to one another. add one missing piece of the bond; their last and youngest mate. add shared trauma and nightmares because of a power hungry, homophobic, psycho. you are left with the ruthless slytherin boys. consider a beautiful Hufflepuff girl. add major trust issues, childhood trauma and anxiety. subtract emotional security and loving parents. add Lana del Rey, sarcasm, and humor used as a coping mechanism. add five unknown soulmates and an unhealthy chocolate addiction. you are left with Ahilya Shyam. need i say more? yes, actually. Ahilya's sperm donor happens to be the previously mentioned power hungry, homophobic psycho who gave the boys life long trauma and a good amount of mental health issues. of course, he gave Ahilya a lot worse damage than that, but in true introvert fashion, the only person who knows of Ahilya's past and trauma is the giant squid.

She gets to know his friends, including the bane of her existence, the boy sent here with the sole purpose of getting under her skin, son of the dark lord himself...Mattheo Riddle. He was every bit of a walking red flag, and everything she knew would be completely wrong for her...but she still found it hard free her mind of him. Did Hogwarts corrupt her? or just allow her to break free from her cocoon? *TRIGGER WARNINGS* Drug and alcohol use Toxic relationship Descriptive sexual encounters Cheating Violence and torture Parental abuse This book is a little different to the ones I've done in the past it has a much more modernized feel including social media posts, pictures, and direct messages woven into the story.

Spirals || Mattheo Riddle by mrxshxx

"I was reaching for stars that didn't exist, caught up in the fantasies born of willful hope. I threw myself in the path of fate because I wanted to be swept away." ... We do stupid, stupid things in the name of those we love. We dedicate ourselves to false promises and we hope that in the end, it all turns out alright. I was never the kind of person who jumped into things without thinking about the consequences. I never dreamed of what could come from some silly mistakes. Two new students come for their 6th year at Hogwarts. Neither of them particularly want to be there. What havoc could a witch and a dark wizard bring to the year? As they both become frustratingly curious about each other, things fall in place that might never have occurred if they had just never met. ... So I started this book because I was bored, and now it's kind of my life accomplishment weirdly enough. It's not perfect and definitely not what it started out as but this fic has parts of my heart and soul in it and I'm proud of how far it's come. Contains toxic but also lovable Mattheo Riddle and an emotionally relatable mc. !!!Finished updating but still doing some editing!!! *WARNING* Contains violence, sexual content, swearing, mentions of abuse, death and possibly more. *I do not own any of the Harry Potter characters, Mattheo Riddle belongs to @yasmineamara, I only own my own characters. Happy reading

Beggin' by writersluvv13

They're not supposed to be in this world. They don't exist here. They're not supposed to be after her. Clara is like all of us, or at least some of us. Blushing over hot celebrities, hiding away in books and fan fiction, living in her head. Making up fantasies to hide from reality. Until four hot, morally grey men, who only exist in fiction find themselves on a mission from the dark lord. To find and capture the last remaining witch/wizard that exists in our world. They infiltrate her school, her life, and whisk her away to Hogwarts where she has to walk a balanced line between her new dorm roomies and their families. While this is all happening she tries to find a way back home because this is not one of her fluffy fairy tales with a knight in shining armor. This is a dark, twisted tale with four dangerous boys that are all after her and will stop at nothing to keep her. "You are spectacularly ours." Too bad it wasn't us, but we can read about it. Found family; morally grey love interests; why choose; Draco Malfoy; Theodore (Theo) Nott; Mattheo Riddle; Tom Riddle Warnings: alcohol, kidnapping, spicyish scenes (nothing more than kissing...probably); some of the spells might not be correct so pls no hate If you click on my Spotify account there's a playlist made especially for this story so I would recommend listening to it while reading <3 Enjoy! All these characters are completely fiction and all rights to them go to JK Rowling except for Clara. xoxo, luv ya!
