"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

Echoes of Ambition & Entwined Fates: The Enigma of Tom Riddle by harmonieeee111

Delve into the enigmatic tale of Tom Marvolo Riddle, a figure of beguiling allure and chilling malevolence. Possessing an undeniable charm and a dangerous charisma, he was a man shrouded in darkness, incapable of feeling love. But what happens when fate leads him to cross paths with a woman whose very presence challenges his destiny? Can she, with her own mysterious past, alter the course of the infamous Dark Lord's life? Beware, for within the pages of this story, passions ignite and boundaries are pushed. As their worlds collide, sparks fly in encounters that transcend the ordinary. But be forewarned, the narrative doesn't shy away from delving into intimate and explicit moments, leading to scenes that are not suitable for all readers. A word of caution - this tale explores the complexities of a toxic relationship, a reflection of Tom Riddle's character. It navigates a path where manipulation and danger intertwine, capturing the essence of his enigma. To add to the intrigue, some timelines have been merged, and familiar characters have been reimagined. In this exploration of Tom Riddle's enigmatic persona, the narrative invites you to question whether one person can truly transform the destiny of a dark and brooding figure. Unveil a side of the infamous villain rarely seen before, and embark on a journey where love and darkness intertwine in a dance that blurs the lines between fascination and fear. P.S. This is the first time I have written something.If you find any mistakes please try to ignore or notify me. While writing the draft some of the words have been changed due to the autocorrect, Apologies. Sorry for playing too much with the timeline.

𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐌𝐮𝐜𝐡 𝐋𝐞𝐟𝐭 by Mia_Ford22

Very gently- her soft lips brush against mine. My eyes flutter closed and I lean back in, smiling. "Nyx, I swear to god, you are going to kill me one day" "What do you mean...?" "Forget it, you already have." ★★★★★ Nyx doesn't want the life she was given at birth. She's a fighter, not a pretty little object that needs saving. Kiran should have never been taken. He's never been a fighter, he acted more like a prince than a knight. When Nyx Maskousky was taken as a young child, she was raised as a thief, but more importantly, as a fighter. But there's a catch: she has to dress like a man, or she's immediately thrown in a cell to rot, where every fragment of her freedom will be gone- ruined. Kiran Taner was taken, along with three other children at eleven, and like everyone else, was raised as a thief. But just as the universe had seemed to want, he's never been strong enough, and has to spend long hours every evening with a woman he can't hide feelings from- Nyx Maskousky. But with a horrible twist of fate, Nyx and Kiran was caught- however not by the exterminators, but by the Trial judges- who put both of them together in the them. However, if they find out that Nyx isn't a man- her whole life will be torn apart, and she will be locked up, or worse, killed. And the trials will easily be Kiran's end, for how strong everyone else is, yet how weak he was. And with a terrible level of self control, Kiran needs to keep his feelings from Nyx for as long as he can. Or that could be his downfall. Extra details: Includes music in a majority of the chapters, thank you to all the creators who made them 🙏. This novel does have deeper meanings as it progresses, so please stick around for it.

The Serpent & Hawke | Mattheo Riddle | Enemies to lovers by its-not-just-magic

We were now mere inches apart. I leaned down, my face level with hers, my eyes blazing with barely contained fury. "You don't want to make an enemy of me, Hawke." I growled. Lyanna swallowed hard, but her gaze remained defiant. "I'm not afraid of you, Riddle." A vicious smile spread across my face. "You should be." Mattheo's desperation for his father's approval collides with the arrival of a mysterious 'muggle' (Lyanna Hawk) with extraordinary powers. As he pursues her abilities to impress his father, Mattheo experiences something he hasn't before. But his obsession for acceptance may deliver the girl straight into his father's hands, putting her in grave danger. For the first time in his life, Mattheo must decide between right and wrong, good and evil, the serpent or Hawke. Over 18's | Enemies to lovers | & SMUT💋 My First Fan Fiction!! Woo!!🎉 ENJOY!!
