Your arguments are legendary, earring house them countless detentions and leaving every classroom filled with tension whenever you're together. You refuse to be intimidated by the infamous Slytherin, and Mattheo can't understand why you're the only person in the whole castle who never backs down from him.

Mattheo is the Slytherin prince who has a reputation for starting fights with everyone, and leading girls on for the fun of it. You are a Hufflepuff who doesn't take shit from anyone. You are kind, loving, smart, and not afraid to back down from a fight. Youre everything mattheo hates... until he doesn't.

When an unexpected partnership for a project forces you two to work together for the entire school year, you're absolutely determined to make it through without killing each other. But behind Mattheos cold reputation lies someone carrying more secrets than anyone realizes, and beneath your stubbornness is a heart she has spent the last 6 years protecting.

As stolen glances replace sarcastic remarks, late night study sessions turn into vulnerable conversations, and hatred slowly gives way to something neither of you expected far more dangerous things begins to blue. Love. But at Hogwarts, love is never simple. Old rivalries, house expectations, and reputations threaten to tear you apart before you even ever get the chance to admit what the feelings have become to each other.
