Dark Lord Voldemort had won the first war in a merciless and undeniable victory; the Light side and it's families all becoming nothing more than second-class citizens, even if they were of pureblood ancestry and needing to prove themselves to earn their status back. The Ministry of Magic caving in under the weight of his onslaught; only to collapse and allow the Dark Lord to reign as their new Emperor. All while Hogwarts became the school of Magic for the purebloods or those who were the most gifted; hand chosen by the right and left hands of the Dark Lord.

Hadrian James Potter; he was the sole heir of the Lord James Potter and his wife Lady Lily Potter, and set to inherit the massive fortune of the Potter family upon his coming of age. He was born unnaturally beautiful; only to grow more so as he aged, and was born with powerful magic. Which had drawn the attention of the other powerful, wealthy, and most notably; pureblood families to him from all sides.

His whole life had been surrounded in training to be the perfect bargaining chip to marry off.  Etiquette, Dancing, How to Dress, How to Act, How to not Act...the list never ended, and Hadrian resented his parents for it; though he never spoke a word about it. Now, as his 17th birthday closed in; Hadrian feared who would be handed his hand for marriage, and sets his plans for his survival and his happiness into motion...

Even if later on; He was traitor to everyone else he knew.

A four-year-old Inferius who goes by the name 'Little One' and is completely adored by everyone who meets him. But Little One holds a lot of mysteries. Who is he? How did he die? But most pressing, what is his relationship to the Dark Lord? Everything is fine, of course, until the Order decides to take Little One away from a very protective and possessive Dark Lord. And somehow, that is the least of the Dark Lord's problems. Add one clingy, annoying Death and one all-seeing, secretive Fate and you might just have a story! Follow Voldemort as he struggles through protecting his child, fighting off a very persistent Death, running an entire country, and for Merlin's saKE CAN HE PLEASE BEAT FATE AT ONE BLOODY GAME OF CHESS????? AKA: The Voldemort adopts an Inferius Harry fic that no one asked for, but surprise, it exists! [Very OOC and not a Tomarry/Harrymort. Recently changed summary, same story!]

Two Sides of the Serpent // Draco Malfoy by athenaknightly13
40 parts Complete Mature
My personal take on the second wizarding war, starting with the Half Blood Prince and ending of the Deathly Hallows. I own none of the characters or the original story, it all belongs to J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series. (The only character that belongs to me is Evelyn Ashthorn and her family.) The Ashthorns were always very dark in their ways. Evelyn's father was a death eater and supporter of the Dark Lord. She grew up and was close friends with Draco Malfoy in their youth but had parted ways in their early years at Hogwarts. As Voldemort was growing stronger during their fifth year, Draco and Evelyn were now involved in something much darker. Forced into a betrothal with each other unwillingly to strengthen Voldemorts future cause and supports. In an effort to break away from the horrors, they reach out to the Order of the Phoenix, determined to pivot the fate of their world. TRIGGER WARNING: This fan-fiction contains alcohol, blood, trauma, r@pe, profanity, death.

AU: You are born with your soulmate's name on your wrist. You may be King, but watch the Queen conquer. Hadrian was fearless and crazier than him. He was his Queen and Merlin help anybody who disrespected his Queen. When two souls fall in love, there is nothing else but the yearning to be close to the other. The presence that is felt through a hand held, a voice heard, or a smile seen. Souls do not have calendars or clocks, nor do they understand the notion of time or distance. They only know it feels right to be with one another. This is the reason why you miss someone so much when they are not there- even if they are only in the very next room. Your soul only feels their absence- it doesn't realize the separation is temporary. Once a deep and powerful connection between two people has been made they become a vital part of each other lives. No measure of distance or duration of silence can prevent the outbreak of smiles and laughter or strong desire to leap into each other's arms. Harry Potter -since he was born- has been denied finding out his soulmate's name. Since he can remember his parents have forced him to wear a bracelet on his wrist to cover the name. On day, he gets fed up being lied to and takes a peek; it reads "Tom Marvolo Riddle/Lord Voldemort." Top Rankings: #582 in Fanfiction 8/27/17 #1 in Tomarry 8/24/18 #4 in Harrymort 6/14/18

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.

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?
