Golden (Matteo Riddle)

Matteo Riddle X Adelaide Potter

Adelaide Potter is Harry Potter's twin sister.
Matteo Riddle is the son of Voldemort.

Although both have spent their entire lives living in the shadow of a family name they never chose, she's building her future, and he doesn't care if he has one.

Adelaide has a plan.

She's determined to earn a place at one of the most prestigious wizardry academies in the world. And with perfect grades and a strategic relationship with Theodore Nott, a cocky Slytherin with family connections to the academy, she might finally have a chance.

A chance to become known for her own achievements.

A chance to escape Harry's shadow.

When she's paired with Matteo Riddle for a school project, she's furious. He's reckless, lazy and couldn't care less about grades or staying out of detention. Everything she's worked so hard for could be ruined just because of him. Because Matteo on the other hand, has already accepted the shadow. He must obey his father's demands to become a Death Eater, even if he doesn't want to.

And Matteo? He can't stand her either. In his eyes. She's an uptight, self-righteous extension of Harry who's obsessed with rules and grades.

So if they hate each other so much, then why do they seem to be the only people who understand each other?

As their project forces them closer, Adelaide's carefully constructed plan begins to unravel. But not for the reason she once thought. Grades she can control, but slowly falling for Voldemort's son, she can't.
