Sparks | Mattheo Riddle
"The two couldn't have been more different from each other, yet they can't deny the underlying tension between them, the sparks that fly at every little touch, the red string of fate that pulls at their wrists until they can't brush it off anymore.

The Thorned Womb
Born into silence and legacy, Rose Grindelwald knows only the cold echo of her family's ruined fortress and the weight of a father whose name is whispered in fear across the wizarding world. Her childhood was carved from shadow and expectation, every step measured, every smile forbidden, every heartbeat a reminder that blood can be both gift and curse. Across the sea, Tibburus Nott inherited an equally chilling legacy. Heir to one of the Sacred Twenty-Eight, his life was shaped by duty, discipline, and a father whose love was as sharp as it was distant. Every choice he made was scrutinized, every emotion tempered, until he became a figure of cold precision, a mirror, in some ways, to Rose's own hardened world. At Hogwarts, two heirs to shadowed legacies collide. Drawn together by loneliness, bound by duty, and united in the quiet ache of unspoken understanding, they find in each other a fragile solace. But even the closest bonds are tested when whispers of a forgotten relic, the fabled Eye of Orrellis, begin to stir. Rose is pulled deeper into a world of ambition, peril, and desire, where loyalty clashes with longing, and the darkness within herself threatens to consume all she holds dear. Tibburus must navigate his own legacy and the fragile connection that binds them, knowing that every choice carries consequences that echo far beyond the walls of Hogwarts. The Thorned Womb is a story of love poisoned by legacy, of loyalty, and how the strongest bonds can fracture under power. THIS STORY IS CURRENTLY DISCONTINUED BUT GO READ THE DEVILS CAPTIVE TRUST

The Silent Heir
They say Mattheo Riddle is cursed. Silent. Dangerous. Untouchable. Whispers of his power haunt the halls of Hogwarts, but no one dares to get close. No one, except Evara Cantrell-the girl who doesn't fear him, the girl who finds his forgotten note in the library: "Sometimes I dream of screaming." Curiosity becomes obsession. A prophecy long buried resurfaces. Mattheo's voice isn't just forbidden-it's a weapon, capable of unraveling reality itself. And when the Ministry comes for him, when ancient seals are shattered and the world begins to break, Evara must face the truth. She was never meant to love him. She was made to erase him. But when the final word is spoken, and time rewrites itself, only one question remains- "Do you remember me?"Complete

Enemies to lovers to enemies again
Book One: Break Me Like a Promise An enemies-to-lovers, dark magic, soul-scarring slow burn. Olivia Berkshire never asked to be the only one who could get through to Mattheo Riddle. She and mattheo riddle were the biggest enemies in the whole school. And then something happened...something everyone thinks about... The fall in love. She never asked to be dragged into the darkness that clung to him like a curse, or to fall for the very boy she swore she'd never forgive. As the twin sister of Lorenzo Berkshire and one of Slytherin's fiercest, Liv has spent her years at Hogwarts fighting, surviving, and keeping her distance from the Riddle brothers-especially Mattheo, whose arrogance, rage, and bloodline make him the last person she should care about. But when tensions reach a boiling point, when insults become confessions and detentions turn to secrets, Liv and Mattheo find themselves bound by something deeper-and far more dangerous-than hate. Between forbidden attraction, shattered trust, and dark family legacies, everything Liv knows begins to unravel when she learns that Mattheo is being watched... by the one man capable of destroying everything she loves. Voldemort is back. And he wants Mattheo's heart as a weapon-and Liv as leverage. Now, forced to choose between protecting her twin, saving Mattheo, and surviving herself, Liv is caught in a war of loyalty and love. But Mattheo is slipping further away. And as he spirals deeper into the darkness, Liv may be the only thing tethering him to the light. But how do you save someone who's already becoming the villain? ⸻Complete
