The things we bury

Seraphina Rosier has spent her entire life learning one thing:

Never let anyone see your weakness.

After being taken from her family as a child and raised in the darkness, Seraphina returns to the wizarding world with secrets she refuses to speak about-and a past that refuses to stay buried.

Sent to Hogwarts in her sixth year, she expects enemies, rumours and a castle full of people who think they know her.

She doesn't expect them.

Daphne. Pansy. Theo. Draco. Blaise. Lorenzo.

And Mattheo Riddle-the one person she can't seem to stay away from.

He doesn't trust her.

She doesn't trust anyone.

And neither of them is prepared for what happens when hatred slowly becomes something neither can ignore.

But Hogwarts has its own secrets.

Death Eater meetings. Forbidden magic. Parties. Jealousy. Betrayals. Family secrets.

And somewhere in the shadows, the Dark Lord has plans for Seraphina.

Because she wasn't sent to Hogwarts by accident.

She was sent there for a reason.

And when the war finally comes, Seraphina will have to decide who she really is-

before someone else decides for her.

Some secrets are meant to be kept.
Some wounds are meant to heal.
And some things should stay buried.

🐍 THE THINGS WE BURY - a Slytherin story of secrets, betrayal, loyalty, war and a love that was never supposed to happen.
