Messy

They were never supposed to fall in love- only to play their parts. Heir and heiress. Gryffindor and Slytherin. Fire and ice.

Aurelia Avery was raised to keep her name clean and her heart locked. Sirius Black was born to destroy every rule he touched. Their betrothal was a political move, a chain disguised as fate. But somewhere between detentions, midnight corridors, and the sound of his laughter in the dark, the chain began to slip.

Now the cracks have spread. One curse, one secret, one mistake-and everything shatters.

Regulus won't speak to her. The Marauders are splintering. The walls of Hogwarts no longer feel safe. And still Sirius finds her in the silence, hands trembling, eyes asking questions that neither of them is brave enough to answer.

Because love was never supposed to look like this.

It was supposed to be perfect. It was supposed to be pure.

Instead, it's Messy.
