Harry's breath frosted in the icy air as he stepped closer. "You think no one notices, don't you?"
Eleanor stood by the frozen lake, her silhouette dark under the moonlight. She didn't turn, her fingers brushing the edge of her scarf. "Notices what?"
"You." His tone was steady, but his green eyes burned with determination. "You're hiding something."
She finally looked at him, her gaze cold. "We're all hiding something, Potter."
"Yours is different," he said, taking another step. "It's... darker."
A faint, bitter smile tugged at her lips. "Then maybe you should stay in the light."
Harry's jaw tightened. "What if I don't?"
Eleanor tilted her head, her voice a murmur. "Then I hope you're not afraid of the dark."

Eleanor Prince has always been a shadow in her own life, burdened by a name spoken in hushed tones and a past cloaked in mystery. Raised by cold and distant grandparents, the magical world is little more than a fleeting dream - until the day a letter from Hogwarts changes everything.
But Eleanor's new life is far from ordinary. A crescent-shaped scar on her collarbone glows with a sinister violet hue, pulsing with dark magic and tying her to a man whose name strikes fear into the hearts of wizards: Voldemort.
As Eleanor delves into the secrets of her past, she must confront the truth of who she is, the curse tethering her to the shadows, and a legacy she's unable to escape. With danger lurking at every turn, the question looms: What is her true connection to the darkness - and can she ever break free?
