England, 1899.

It had been six years since Eloise had last set foot in Hogwarts, something she hadn't planned to do again- but with new threats on the horizon and someone greedy for her power, she finds herself forced to revisit the old castle.

Tormented by Ancient Magic, ever a curse to her existence, it's her task to fight a new battle and uncover long hidden secrets in the process. 

Sebastian and Eloise drifted apart in their sixth year, when she was no longer able to keep him from pursuing the Dark Arts and the cure he so desperately seeks. Betrayed and bitter, she wants nothing to do with him once their paths cross again-but with danger and a darkness of her own looming over her head, she might have to get used to having him around again.

Hogwarts Legacy: The Price of Power by CursedOnyx
115 parts Complete Mature
Following Dracaena Hoctina's eventful fifth year as a new student with extraordinary powers, both she and her best friend, Ominis Gaunt, enjoyed a relatively peaceful sixth year at Hogwarts. Now, as their seventh and final year approaches, they hope for another untroubled school year. However, Dracaena still feels no small level of guilt over her decision to turn Sebastian in to the Ministry. It's a guilt Ominis shares, and the pair have grown close following Sebastian's incarceration in Azkaban at the end of their fifth year, even spending their holidays together. Both of them still miss Sebastian terribly, and wonder if things could have been different if they had made different choices. On the Hogwarts Express, winging their way towards the castle once more, Dracaena and Ominis are interrupted in their compartment by a strange, yet wonderfully familiar figure standing in the doorway. Sebastian has returned. As the school year progresses, the Silver Trio are faced with an array of problems to navigate. Their approaching exams, the horrible amount of homework, and a blossoming love triangle between the three of them are the least of their worries, as Dracaena's magical powers begin to grow out of control. (!! All characters are 18+ !!) Note - due to a recent spate of disrespectful behaviour, comments are now moderated. I would like to foster a positive atmosphere for everyone engaging with this story, and while opinions are freely accepted, outright negativity, aggressiveness and insults are not. Ta~💚
How to Make a Villain | Sebastian Sallow x F!OC by morelikeravenbore
30 parts Ongoing Mature
A comprehensive guide on how to turn the good guys bad. Canon divergent, slow burn, mutual pining, idiots in love. ~x~ Aurélie Collins wishes she were invisible. Unfortunately, despite her best efforts to be normal, there are a great many unusual things about the red-haired girl from France. She's the only transfer student Hogwarts has seen in recent memory, she has an absolutely abysmal sense of direction, and - though she desperately wishes she couldn't - she can wield an ancient and highly unstable form of rare magic. When tragedy rips her from her life of opulence at Beauxbatons Academy of Magic, Aurélie is unceremoniously thrust into the freezing cold Scottish Highlands to finish her final year at Hogwarts, where the castle's floor plan is impossible to navigate, obsession with gossip runs prevalent among the student body, and it's freezing bloody cold - all the time. Worse still, she finds herself unable to escape the unwavering attention of Sebastian Sallow. Tall, handsome and infuriatingly arrogant, the Slytherin Quidditch captain is convinced he's the greatest thing to ever walk the halls of Hogwarts, is best friends with a Gaunt, and, to Aurélie's endless irritation, does not want to let her out of his sight. Ever. But when the horrors of her past threaten to catch up with her, Aurélie must make a choice: tap into the magical abilities she's tried so hard to suppress her whole life and put her trust in the very same Slytherin boy who won't stop antagonising her, or spend her life running and hiding from those who tore her life apart in France. Will she step into the power she was born to wield to protect herself and those she loves? And will Sebastian Sallow prove himself to be more of an ally than she could have ever imagined?

''You seriously need to stop calling me your friend,'' Sebastian tells me in a low voice. ''Then what should I call you?'' I ask curiously. My stomach is fluttering like never before. ''I haven't quite figured it out just yet. But 'friend' is not it.'' He says as he squeezes my hand harder. ---- Sebastian Sallow x reader, a love story. When the summer between Y/n's 5th and 6th year at Hogwarts, she cannot stop thinking about Sebastian Sallow, despite the horrible things he did last year. She knows that what happened should have been the end of their relationship, but for some reason she does not consider it to be over. In fact, Y/n is unsure of her feelings towards him. Something about him just makes her feel like home. During their 6th year their relationship develops further, while facing new obstacles. One night Y/n discovers something that could mean the end of the wizarding world that requires help of Sebastian as well as Ominis. This is a story about love, friendship, betrayal and sacrifices. ---- Note: This takes place after the end of the game Hogwarts Legacy, but uses characters from the game.

A Man Has Horns  // Sebastian Sallow by lilithavoidcroft
72 parts Ongoing
/Going through hefty editing. Finished CH 1-7 so far/ Returning for her sixth year at Hogwarts, Lilith Natrix Voidcroft faces the challenges of growing up, where friendships begin to deepen into something more complex. As she navigates these shifting dynamics, she's caught in a whirlwind of conflicting emotions-guilt, rage, lust, and a lingering sense of obligation. Torn between the dark allure of Sebastian Sallow and the safer path of simple morality, Lilith's journey through this pivotal year will reveal both the brightest and darkest facets of her soul. Each moment feels familiar, yet tinged with a new intensity, leaving her to question: Can Sebastian truly keep his vow to stay away from the Dark Arts? And is Lilith destined to be a beacon of light, or will she be consumed by an eternal eclipse? 𖤓 Back at Hogwarts, both the MC and Sebastian wrestle with their tangled emotions for one another, each opting for a seemingly safer path-MC with the adventurous Gryffindor Garreth Weasley, and Sebastian with the spontaneous Hufflepuff Charlotte Morrison. Yet, despite these choices, they find themselves irresistibly drawn to one another, captivated by a connection that teeters between agony and ecstasy. As a new year dawns at Hogwarts, they discover that the lengths we go to for love remain as timeless and unchanging as the castle's ancient walls. 𖤓 "My aim was to craft a story where the MC and Sebastian share an intense chemistry, a volatile mix of love and hate that blurs into one another, evolving into a deep-seated addiction. Their connection is as much about passion as it is about pain, with each emotion feeding the other in a way that neither can resist." 𖤓 Cute slow burn young love, with added dark forbidden elements.
Return of Sebastian Sallow | 10 Yr After Hogwarts by JuneyMont
148 parts Ongoing Mature
Ten years after I began at Hogwarts, Sebastian Sallow is back. And he's Professor Sallow now. He disappeared after the fall of Ranrok and Rookwood, after I lost Professor Fig, and after Ominis and I couldn't keep him from losing himself. But I never forgot him. As students his darkness kept us apart, and as adults his quest to make amends took him around the world and off the radar while my career with the Ministry kept me close to home. With the unexpected opportunity to reconnect, a wildfire of emotions threatens to bring us close once more. And a mysterious, imminent threat from another land threatens to keep us apart...forever. A story about love, loss, and redemption. CH. 1 Snippet: "I can hear Sebastian's breath grow shallow as he grabs ahold of one of my wrists tightly and I notice a familiar shift that brings a strange glisten to his eye and dark shadow to his brow. I've know that look from before, long ago, in the catacombs and the undercroft. But here it has an intensity that I've never seen. He is voracious and wild --primal, even. Like an old familiar melody, I can almost hear the subtlety of his metered self control that prevents him from becoming completely unhinged. And, oh my god, the realization of how badly he wants me nearly send me off." ---- WARNING: NSFW, Mature | Hogwarts Legacy Fan-fiction | Romance | Contains Hogwarts Legacy Spoilers | F Gryffindor OC / Sebastian Sallow. | M OC / Ominis Gaunt | Steamy Start, Slow Burn
