After saving Hogwarts from the clutches of dark forces, Sybil returns to her 6th year, but the victory feels hollow. Struggling to reclaim a semblance of normalcy, Sybil finds herself trapped between the girl she was and the hero she's been forced to become. But when a long-buried danger resurfaces, she realizes the threat is far deeper than she ever imagined.
However, it's not just the shadows of the past that threaten to consume her-it's Sebastian. Her kindred spirit, her partner-in-crime, and the one person who mirrors her darkness.
As they grapple with their inner demons, they must face the twisted forces pulling them apart-or risk unraveling everything they've fought so hard to protect.

Spite | Sebastian Sallow
There is no person in the world Sebastian Sallow hates more than Avelina Black. Ask Avelina and she'd say the same about him. Sebastian blames her for failing to cure his sister Anne. Avelina blames him for ever placing that burden on her in the first place. They've spent years avoiding each other-until an Azkaban escapee attacks, demanding the strange necklace Avelina wears. Her uncle, the Hogwarts headmaster, sends her on a dangerous quest to uncover why. And insists Sebastian go with her as her protector. «⋅✧⋅» Enemies to Lovers | Sebastian Sallow x OC | First person POV | Dual POV Mature content (18+). Please read the introduction for trigger warnings, themes, and additional information before diving in. Avelina: "Quite frankly, Viv, I'd rather poke my eyes out with my wand than spend an entire evening with Sebastian Sallow!" I spat, my anger flaring. "I know, I'm sorry," Viv said, looking slightly guilty. "But it'll be good for you. You don't have to talk to him, just hang out with Liam." I shook my head in disbelief. "This is the worst day ever," I muttered. "I'm not going." Sebastian: And then, a thought slid into my mind that I didn't even try to suppress. I wanted to flip her over, put her on all fours, bury myself inside her, and fuck the hell out of her until she forgot her own name. The moment the thought crossed my mind, I froze. What the fuck? No. I hate her, I mean I do still, right? «⋅✦⋅» Ratings: #1 Academicrivals #2 Sebastiansallowfanfic #4 SebastiansallowComplete

The year is 1892. Liya Chang, a Slytherin student in Hogwarts, possesses a rare ability to harness ancient magic. Yet, as the powerful force surges within her, she realises that this power is a double edged sword - she must quickly learn to control it, before it controls her. On the other side of the spectrum, Sebastian Sallow will do whatever it takes to find a cure for his sister, Anne, who was brutally cursed - even if that meant meddling in the dark arts. An unlikely friendship was forged between two fierce academic rivals. Liya and Sebastian, like two moths drawn to the flame, find themselves navigating a dangerous path together. Can they defeat the adversaries that lie in their way, or will they succumb to the magic they failed to control? Surely they should know that power corrupts... Power absolutely corrupts.

Passion | Sebastian Sallow
Sixth year was supposed to be a fresh start, but Sebastian Sallow has been pulling away, and Vanity Steel can't figure out why. When a night out brings them back together, they fall into an unexpected fake relationship that quickly becomes something far more complicated. But just as everything begins to feel real, Vanity is given a once in a lifetime opportunity. The only catch? If she takes it, she has to leave Sebastian behind. And she has no idea the relationship was never fake to him at all. ---- "Alright, just take it easy," he said, resting a hand on her thigh without a second thought, a reassuring touch meant to ground her. But for Vanity, the warmth of his hand on her leg was electric. Her eyes were drawn to it, her mind racing with thoughts she couldn't stop, thoughts she didn't dare say aloud. He must have noticed her staring, because he smirked, glancing at her. "What? My hand doesn't bite, I promise." ---- This story includes 18+ content and spicy scenes, uncluding breeding kink and hand fetishes. Because of that the characters are 18+.

Torment & Temptations
Sixth year at Hogwarts has not started off well for Riley Dagworth. With the recurring nightmares, a whispering voice that only she can hear and trying to understand her feelings for both Ominis and Sebastian, sixteen is proving to be a difficult age. Dark wizards are beginning to assemble after hearing a powerful ancient magic has revealed itself after so many years. Riley must continue her adventure in order to protect her friends and the power she possesses. Not only will her journey challenge her in ways she'd never imagine, but a long lost secret will also unfold. Disclaimer: This story is a spinoff after the events of Hogwarts Legacy and may contain spoilers of the game. Our main character (Riley Dagworth) decided not to open the repository containing the ancient magic at the end of fifth year. Authors note: I've always been a Harry Potter fan since I was a child. I loved the books and have read them many times over. When the Hogwarts Legacy game was released it was like my dream of attending Hogwarts had finally arrived. After the finishing the game I was left with wanting more. Which led me to hours and hours of reading fanfiction, and a new world opened itself up to me. I've dabbled in writing before, but have never fully committed to a full storyline. This story is my first. I hope you enjoy it and continue to dream about a magical word as I do.Complete
The Secrets || Sebastian Sallow POV fanfic
The world thinks I'm the arrogant one. The rule-breaker. The charming duelist who gets away with everything. They're not wrong. But no one knows what's at stake when I look at Anne. No one knows what I've done. What I'll still do. I made a promise. One I intend to keep. Not for the Headmaster. Not for the school. Not even for the girl with the violet eyes and the clever mouth who's stumbled straight into my path. Qynna Veilinharv. She wasn't here before. Now she's exactly where I need her. She casts spells like she's never learned them, argues like a Slytherin, blushes like a Hufflepuff, and hides things like the world depends on it. I should have left her alone. I didn't. She keeps walking straight into my plans, and every time she does, it becomes easier to let her. The closer she gets, the more I can see what she's made of. And the truth is, some part of me likes watching her try. Even if she never realises how deep she's wandered. Even if, by the time she does, it's already too late. Includes: ✨ Secrets, lies, and very bad decisions ✨ A meddling, mysterious girl with more power than she knows ✨ A cocky protagonist who absolutely has a fan club ✨ A slow descent into dark magic Sebastian Sallow x Fem!OC (but replace "Qynna" and "Veilinharv" with your own OC if you wish- we're all secretly shifting anyway.) ⚠️ Trigger Warnings This story includes themes of grief, terminal illness, death, PTSD, anxiety, depression, obsession, self-harm, light intimacy, violence, blood, dark magic, alcoholism, and emotional ruin.
