reverie /ˈrɛv(ə)ri/ - a state of being lost in one's thoughts; a dream that feels almost real.
Gisèle Mortaine was born with a gift that felt more like a curse, necromancy ran through her veins like poison. The Ministry called it a condition, her family called it a legacy. The rest of the world simply called her dangerous.
Monitored. Controlled. Experimented on. She grew up learning that power was never hers to keep.
Tom Riddle was different. Power didn't haunt him - he hunted it.
He watched her from the shadows of Hogwarts, fascinated and furious that something so ancient, so forbidden, could belong to someone other than him. He wanted it, her magic, her knowledge, her undoing.
And so began their quiet war: brilliance against brilliance, manipulation against manipulation.
Hate dressed as fascination. Obsession mistaken for destiny.
Because sometimes, to possess power, you must destroy the one who holds it.
And sometimes, what begins as a reverie - a dream - becomes the nightmare you cannot wake from.

Spiralborne: The Rise of Caelum and Noctus
Harry Potter was never just the Boy Who Lived. He was something ancient. Something remembered. Something waking. When Hogwarts whispers that Harry is the Heir of Slytherin, they don't understand how close to the truth they are-or how far they've underestimated him. As fire spreads and fear deepens, Harry becomes less a student and more a storm. But he's not alone. Tom Riddle-Lord Voldemort-feels it too. A pull. A bond. A memory that aches. What began as enmity twists into something greater: love, yes-but also prophecy, power, and the rebirth of a forgotten magic. Together, they become Caelum and Noctus, names from the Spiral-the oldest magic the world tried to forget. Together, they will unmake fear, challenge gods, and rise not as tyrants but as the truth behind the legend. Some call them monsters. Others call them divine. The Spiral remembers. Now, so will the world.

Fractured Devotion
Elara Vale never intended to fall in love with Tom Riddle. Quiet, observant, and fiercely intelligent, she thought her years at Hogwarts would be defined by books, ambition, and the occasional whispered mystery in the dark. But everything changes when she crosses paths with the brilliant and magnetic Tom-handsome, impossibly composed, and harboring secrets far deeper than anyone dares to imagine. As their bond deepens from academic curiosity to something far more dangerous, Elara is drawn into Tom's ever-expanding circle of influence-a group of charismatic students with chilling loyalties and whispered ambitions. Together, they navigate exams, ancient magic, and growing unrest within the wizarding world. But what begins as infatuation slowly spirals into something else: a love that entangles her, a power that isolates her, and a darkness that demands more than she ever meant to give. Torn between the promise of belonging and the instincts urging her to run, Elara must decide how far she's willing to follow the boy who would become a legend-and what pieces of herself she's willing to sacrifice in the name of love. A slow-burn descent into obsession, manipulation, and twisted devotion, this is not a fairytale romance. It's the beginning of something far more dangerous.

Tom Riddle - his one true weakness
In the shadows of a brewing war, two of Hogwarts' most dangerous minds clash. Aurora Black - heir to the Black family's blood magic and haunted legacy - wants nothing to do with Tom Riddle. He's arrogant, ruthless, and far too clever to trust. And Tom sees Aurora as a threat: powerful, sharp-tongued, and unwilling to kneel. The hatred between them is immediate, electric, and mutual. But hate, in their world, is just another mask for obsession. As their rivalry twists into reluctant partnership, and then something darker, they form the foundation of a secret inner circle: the Knights. Behind Hogwarts' ancient walls, the group grows in strength and purpose, launching missions to destabilize the Ministry and send a message - a war is coming, and they will be the ones to write its rules. But when one of their own betrays them, Aurora's memory is wiped clean. Her love for Tom, her loyalty to the Knights, even the truth of who she is - all gone. Recruited into the Order of the Phoenix, she fights for the very cause she once vowed to burn down. As the final battle erupts on Hogwarts grounds, Aurora's unstable blood magic explodes - and with it, so does the spell binding her mind. Her memories return in a storm of guilt and rage, and when the smoke clears, she finds herself standing on the wrong side... or the only side left. Love born from hatred. Power born from blood. And a girl torn between who she was, who she became, and the boy who never stopped waiting. In a world at war, memory is the deadliest magic of all.Complete
