When Isla Solace receives her acceptance letter, it isn't to Hogwarts-but to Seastrand School of Magic, hidden among the coral-fringed shores of Magnetic Island. Across the water on the mainland, Moonriver School of the Arcane trains its own elite students in the mysteries of magic. For generations, a bitter rivalry has divided them-Seastrand and Moonriver, islanders and mainlanders, salt and stone.
But Isla is different. Born to renowned Healers and raised between the two worlds, she finds herself at the heart of a magical conflict older than she ever imagined. Alongside Lyra Clearwater, a fierce island local, and Calder Blackwood, a boy from Moonriver with secrets of his own, Isla must uncover why the schools were torn apart-and whether they can ever be reunited.
A tale of sea-swept spells, forbidden friendships, and the courage to bridge what others have broken.
This is magic beyond Hogwarts.

Entangled by magic
"You have completely and utterly bewitched me, Lucia. Every time I look at you, I feel practically hypnotized." ☆✰⭐︎ Lucia Winters was raised in a pure-blood family with a storied history, expectations weigh heavily on her. Her father couldn't say no when she was invited to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as a fifth year. She was deeply nervous about stepping into Hogwarts, not that she would ever admit it out loud. Lucia didn't grow up dreaming of the Great Hall, or getting sorted in front of hundreds of staring eyes. But with carefully composed nervousness there was excitement, she was burning with it. Lucia doesn't know yet what is to come, the power she can yield from her fingertips, a person who could guide her magic, or possibly use it. Sebastian Sallow was in his fifth year of Hogwarts. It started with exhaustion. The kind that settles into your bones - the kind that no amount of sleep or sugar quills can fix. Sebastian hid it with his grin, the sarcasm, the easy confidence. But by now, it was habit, not joy. Anne hadn't improved. Solomon barely spoke to him. So he did what he always did, he hid the bleeding parts. But underneath all of it was a hum, a low, constant desperation. He started digging into older magic, darker spells, things the books said he shouldn't touch. He touched them anyway. Sebastian was not going to sit back and watch his sister wither when he knew there were answers? No. There had to be answers, something, or someone, will show him. ☆✰⭐︎ A collision of two desperate souls, one already falling, the other just stepping into the dark. He needs her - not just because of her magic. She needs him - not just because he sees her clearly. Two people keeping secrets, both too clever for their own good, both drawn to eachother like gravity. Somewhere in their desperation, ambition, and obsession with saving Anne, it started to look like more than a friendship.
Alliances | Slytherin Boys
They were raised to be perfect. They chose to be dangerous. Blair Blackwood never expected to return to England, let alone the sprawling Blackwood estate or the ancient corridors of Hogwarts. But when old pureblood ties call, she and her three closest friends-Cassie Carrington, Mia Montague, and Lea Lockwood-are thrust back into a world of tradition, secrets, and expectations. Trained to charm, raised to rule, and bonded since birth, the girls know how to navigate power. But things have changed. The Slytherin boys have grown up too. Draco Malfoy, Blaise Zabini, Mattheo Berkshire and Theodore Nott - heirs to legacy, danger, and something far more twisted - aren't just playing the social game. They're watching, waiting, and hiding secrets of their own. As balls, strange dreams, and whispered warnings begin to unravel the line between duty and desire, the girls must decide who they can trust in a world where nothing is as it seems. Old magic is stirring. And the Slytherins? They never play fair. (Read the warnings in the first chapter, please.)
Low Tides
Some secrets rise with the tide. Some sink and never surface. Isla Monroe returns to the sleepy coastal town of Driftwood Bay after a decade away, hoping to escape a scandal and start over. But the ocean she grew up loving now hides the memories she's tried to forget-and the man she left behind. Calder Hayes, once her best friend and first love, is now the owner of the town's boatyard and the keeper of a painful grudge. When Isla unexpectedly inherits her grandmother's old seaside inn, she's forced to work alongside Calder to restore it. As they repair walls and repaint rooms, old sparks reignite. But Driftwood Bay holds darker secrets: a mysterious disappearance, a dangerous storm, and truths that could drown them both. As the tide shifts, Isla must choose between staying afloat in the life she's built-or diving headfirst into the past she's been running from. Happy reading.....🥰🥰Complete
The Secrets || Sebastian Sallow POV fanfic

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.
