Melinoë Black isn't your typical Slytherin.
She's a brilliant manipulator with a mysterious past and an even darker future in her sights. Arriving for her fifth year, she's not looking for true friends or redemption; her sole aim is power, and she'll get it at any cost.
What she doesn't expect is for her icy heart to thaw for him, Sebastian Sallow: charming, dangerous, and as damned as she is. Amidst forbidden spells, ghosts of the past, and brutal cruelties, Melinoë and Sebastian will descend into an abyss of dark magic and power games.
With Ranrok's rise and the threat of Ancient Magic looming, the line between good and evil blurs. Will Melinoë and Sebastian fight to defend the Wizarding World, or will they surrender to the dark side?

Project Morrigan I Sebastian Sallow x FMC
Sebastian Sallow is offered a way out of Azkaban: earn his freedom by infiltrating Victor Rookwood's forces, uncover the Horcruxes he has hidden, and gain control of his most dangerous creation - Reika, a living vessel for the ancient magic Rookwood stole but could not wield himself. Reika was created. Not born, not conceived, and certainly not loved. Forged from stolen power and bound by runes, she is Rookwood's possession, his weapon, his precious flower. When Sebastian get's assigned to train her, the lines between them begin to blur. And as her humanity begins to surface, Sebastian must face the question he has tried to ignore: Is his freedom worth her destruction? ༻❀ What to expect: ❀༺ "Lovely aim, weedle. Almost hit the target this time. Maybe next decade." "You bleed prettily, at least. That's worth something, petal." "If you'd followed orders this well on the training grounds, rosebud, we wouldn't be having this conversation. But don't worry... We'll work on that attitude later."
A Monster, They Said
They called him a monster. And maybe he was. When Briar Williams is taken prisoner by a dark wizard camp deep within the Forbidden Forest, she expects to die at the hands of the one who leads it. But it turns out to be Sebastian Sallow, the boy she once betrayed years ago. Instead, she finds herself caged, watched, and curiously spared. Sebastian is no longer the reckless Slytherin she remembers; he's cruel, calculating, and... oddly collapses at random? But beneath his coldness flickers the same sharp intellect and haunted soul that once fascinated her. As Briar unravels the secrets of how Sebastian never made it to Azkaban, his seemingly random failing health, and the camp's twisted purpose, she begins to question everything she knows about monsters-and the man she's come to fear and pity. Meanwhile, Ominis Gaunt-the Officer of Hogsmeade and Briar's long-time lover who desperately wants to marry her-has been convinced by Poppy to save her. Warning: This is a dark, mature, and mysterious Hogwarts Legacy romance. This story explores trauma, morality, and will feature some explicit scenes of violence.Complete![AFTER THE CHAOS - The Devil's Memories [Volume 1] Sebastian Sallow](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/387597969-256-k394097.jpg)

But being back at Hogwarts has stirred up trouble... Not only are you still trying to live down your reputation as "Hogwarts' Savior," but rumors have begun circling about your...relationships? And to make matters worse, your sleep has been plagued by nightmares, your ancient magic gone dormant. Just when you suspect your desperate attempts at normalcy couldn't get any worse, you begin to have a war in your mind with an unknown enemy, seeking an object with the potential to cause irreversible damage. There's another ominous threat to the safety of Hogwarts, but you've had your fair share of heroism. The wizarding world is in the capable hands of a sixth year student. What could possibly go wrong? ⋆｡°✩ * FMC, Ravenclaw House (she/her pronouns used) * Self-insert!

The Unraveling
Our bond was formed long before we met, as if a string had been tied to our wrists, connecting us at birth... It is something beyond us, beyond this life... We were destined to meet, destined to love, destined to be together, right now, right here... Our bond was formed long before we met, Infinite, never unraveling. If you told Adelia Miltin a few years ago that witches and wizards existed, she would have called you mad. Yet, here she was, about to enter a school meant for aspiring witches and wizards as a new 7th year student. She thought her only worries were going to be taking care of her ailing grandmother, not learning how to fly a broom. Not only will she have to traverse through the halls of Hogwarts, but she will also have to navigate her new life filled with Ancient Magic, budding friendships, and an insufferable Slytherin named Sebastian Sallow. If you told Sebastian Sallow that his semester would start with a failed duel on his part, he would have called you a liar. Yet, here he was, named second-best by the hands of a new student, someone who could hardly hold their wand correctly. He thought his biggest worries this year were going to be discovering what happened to his parents, but now he also must fight for his title as best duelist back from an incompetent Hufflepuff named Adelia Miltin. ------- This is a slow burn Sebastian x fMC fic that will explore life before the curse and develop characters and relationships. This may be a slow read with a few episodic chapters since I want the reader to feel like they are going to school with the characters. There will be plenty of fluff in the beginning and angst in later chapters. While the fic does follow the main storyline from the game, I have added/removed/changed events/characters to suit my story. Please read the warnings and rights BEFORE starting this story! Thank you for your support! 😊

She was a Muggle-born witch from Indiana, thrown into the chaos of fifth-year Hogwarts life. He was a sharp-tongued Slytherin with too much charm and a heart heavier than he let on. Somehow, they became best friends. It's been ten years since Rosemarie Lodge discovered her ancient magic- and since she met Sebastian Sallow. Now, a decade later, Sebastian is spending the summer with Rosemarie and her family in small-town America. She's got a whole list of Muggle adventures planned- camping, parades, baseball games, the works- and he's all in. What Rosemarie doesn't know is that Sebastian's been keeping a secret all these years: he's been in love with her since the day they met. And this summer, he plans to finally tell her. As they navigate the quirks of Muggle life- junk food, karaoke, water balloon fights, and quiet nights under the stars- Sebastian and Rosemarie might just discover that the most magical moments aren't the ones with wands or spells... They're the ones shared with each other. *All characters are aged up, and this story takes place in the modern day.
