Seren Malfoy was meant to be bound for life to her best friend Sirius Black, their families' union sealed by an ancient, unbreakable ritual. To create a powerful family. But on the night of the ceremony, Sirius fled-leaving behind his brother, his so called family, and the girl he secretly loved. Heartbroken and betrayed, Seren distanced herself from the Marauders, including Remus Lupin, the boy she's tried to forget but can't. As she withdraws into isolation, none of them know the truth: Sirius ran to save her from a loveless bond, knowing her heart truly belonged to Remus. Now, as fate draws Seren back into the Marauders' circle, long-buried feelings resurface, and secrets from that fateful night threaten to unravel everything. Can love and friendship survive the weight of betrayal, hidden truths, and the growing darkness on the horizon?
