Black Legacy : The Serpent's Daughter

Aurelia Black always knew she had a father, but Sirius Black was more a ghost than a parent - a name whispered in hushed tones, a face glimpsed in old photographs.

Raised by herself, she arrives at Hogwarts in her sixth year, a latecomer burdened by a legacy she barely understands. The weight of her father's infamous past, coupled with his absence, has left her with deep-seated avoidant attachment issues, making it nearly impossible for her to form meaningful connections.

Lorenzo Berkshire, a Slytherin with a complex history of his own, finds himself intrigued by the guarded newcomer. Despite the whispers surrounding Aurelia's name, Lorenzo sees past her defenses to the vulnerability beneath.

He becomes a patient friend, offering a steady hand as she navigates the unfamiliar world of magic and the even more daunting landscape of her own emotions.

As Aurelia and Lorenzo grow closer, she begins to question everything she thought she knew about her father and herself.

Can she learn to trust Lorenzo and overcome her fear of abandonment? And can she reconcile the image of the father she longed for with the reality of the man history has painted as a villain?

This is a story about finding your place, healing from the past, and discovering that even the most broken hearts can learn to love.
