ROMANTIC HOMICIDE-HARRY POTTER-FRED WEASLEY

Adaline Malfoy has always lived in the shadow of her family name-perfect grades, perfect composure, the perfect daughter. But beneath the polished surface lies a truth she cannot ignore: the whispers of the Dark Lord's return are no longer whispers, and her family's loyalty is not a choice.

Fifth year at Hogwarts should be about O.W.L.s and surviving another year of Slytherin politics. Instead, the Quidditch World Cup erupts into chaos, the Dark Mark is cast into the sky, and the Triwizard Tournament arrives at Hogwarts, dragging the wizarding world into dangerous new waters.

And then there's Fred Weasley.

A Gryffindor prankster. A boy from the family her father despises most. A boy who should have remained nothing more than a rival across the common room. Yet after one strange letter, Adaline finds herself drawn into an impossible connection-one that defies centuries of hatred between their families.

As Hogwarts becomes a stage for alliances, betrayals, and something far darker than dragons and mazes, Adaline must decide where her loyalty truly lies. With her family and their mark of servitude... or with a boy who was never supposed to matter at all.

Enemies for centuries. Forbidden by blood.
But some sparks refuse to be smothered-even in the shadow of war.
