A Touch Beyond || Theo Nott

Eight years into the war, the magical world teeters on the edge of chaos. For the past year, a tense stalemate has gripped both sides-no victories, no losses, just an eerie silence broken by whispers of something monumental brewing beneath the surface.

Theodore Nott, always a good solder beside his girlfriend Myla. Their bond is a fragile refuge amidst the violence-a flicker of humanity in a world consumed by darkness. But when an overheard conversation within the Order of the Phoenix reveals that Myla holds the key to a pivotal move against Voldemort, everything unravels.

Word reaches the Dark Lord himself, and curiosity quickly morphs into obsession. Myla is taken, her freedom exchanged for cold stone walls and the suffocating presence of Death Eaters who she once fought beside. Night after night, they invade her mind with dark magic, peeling away memories and secrets, searching for the elusive weapon they believe she harbors.

But as Voldemort's forces delve deeper, strange things begin to happen-fractures appear in Myla reality, as though her mind isn't entirely her own. She will go to the ends of the Earth to protect this secret if she must. Could the secret she carries be more lethal than anyone imagined?

For Theo, the lines between loyalty and love blur as he's forced to confront his darkest fears. To save Myla, he must risk exposing his own tenuous allegiance and face the question he's been dreading: Is she the key to ending the war... or unleashing something far worse?

In a world where no one can be trusted and nothing is as it seems, A Touch Beyond explores the devastating cost of love and the terrifying power of secrets that refuse to stay buried.
