Selene Greaves never expected her life to change so suddenly.
Transferring to Hogwarts in the middle of fifth year, at the same time the great Harry Potter is making headlines, she finds herself caught between awe and fear. Shy, reserved, and far too used to fading into the background, Selene prefers to linger in the shadows, quietly watching the chaos of magic, friendship, and rebellion unfold.
But fate has other plans. Sorted into Slytherin, of all houses, she is thrust into a world of cunning miscreants and charming rogues who thrive where she feels most out of place. Among them is a mischievous, silver-haired boy who seems far too interested in pulling her out of hiding.
Now, Selene must learn what it means to belong, not just to Hogwarts but to herself, while walking the thin line between darkness and light.

His Little Secret - Harry Potter
She was in love with her best friend who wanted to keep her a secret. The story of a socially anxious girl at the magical school of Hogwarts, her recovery, her friends and an unrequited love, but is it? This is just a fanfiction based on J K Rowling's work. I take no credit for the characters except my Selene. The plot and story as well as the typing efforts I do take some credit for. I hope you enjoy this angst filled book with warnings of non-consensual things happening though there's no explicit content. Maybe a darkly happy ending for someone too...Complete
