The Hollow Hours

Regulus Black disappears from Hogsmeade without a trace.

What follows is a frantic, hours-long manhunt that spirals into something far worse-a brutal kidnapping case, a secret buyer, and a nightmare buried beneath spell damage wards and whispered trauma. When Regulus is finally found, broken and barely breathing, his return sends shockwaves through Hogwarts and beyond.

But survival isn't recovery.

And waking up is just the beginning.

The Hollow Hours is a dark, devastating, and sometimes darkly funny exploration of trauma, survival, found family, and the feral, painful road back to yourself. Features protective Gryffindors, traumatized chaos gremlin Regulus, unhinged sibling bonding, horrifying implications, and absolutely zero chill.

⚠️ TW: kidnapping, physical & sexual assault (non-explicit), trauma responses, medical trauma, PTSD, and dark humor used as a coping mechanism.
