Rivals in Green | Draco Malfoy | Enemies to Lovers by taylor_sallows160

Two Slytherin heirs. One ancient rivalry. A love they never saw coming. When Gaunt walks into Hogwarts, she's determined to claim her place at the top-and Draco Malfoy refuses to give up his crown without a fight. Their battles are legendary: sharp words, hexes in the halls, and a power struggle that splits the Slytherin house in two. But hate is a dangerous thing in the shadows of the dungeons, and every confrontation brings them closer to crossing the thin line between enemies and something much more dangerous. Tension turns to obsession. Obsession turns to longing. And in the end, the only thing more intoxicating than their rivalry might be the one person who can truly break them. An enemies-to-lovers romance set in Hogwarts, for anyone who knows that sometimes the fiercest hate hides the deepest love. COVER ART DOES NOT BELONG TO ME

In the Shadow of the Past by GinevraWood

In their sixth year at Hogwarts, a shadow hangs over the corridors-because Ginevra Wood (Own Character) and Sebastian Sallow are haunted by their past at every turn. What began as a fragile friendship turns into a battle against guilt, old scars, and new secrets. While the darkness of past decisions weighs heavily on Sebastian's heart, hope grows between classes, secret meetings of the Crossed Wands, and the search for a cure for Anne, hope that no one dares to admit. But nothing is forgotten at Hogwarts-and it takes more than courage to survive in the shadow of the past. Who dares to look behind the masks? Who shines when secrets threaten to absorb everything? Discover how much light is hidden in the shadows of the past-and whether loyalty brings hope or destroys everything. Note: This is a translation, to the best of my knowledge and belief, of my fan fiction, which I write in German. I would be very grateful for any suggestions for improvement regarding the language (or ideas for the storyline)! I look forward to hearing from you :-)

Sorted into Slytherin just like her brother, she expected her time at Hogwarts to be just as grand as her upbringing. But life within the castle takes a darker turn when she crosses paths with James Potter - a talented yet insufferably arrogant Gryffindor Quidditch star who loves tormenting Slytherins like her. Their rivalry begins with sharp words, duelling hexes, and an undeniable clash of ideals. Yet, as their worlds collide, the fire of mutual hatred ignites something neither can resist, drawing them closer than they could have ever imagined. As Anya navigates the murky waters of her family's expectations and her own growing feelings, she'll find herself questioning everything she once believed...
