Dance of Secrets - Mattheo Riddle

At Hogwarts, everyone knows the Malfoy name.

Aurelia Malfoy is no exception, but unlike her brother, she was never the one people admired.
Known, watched, and whispered about, she exists in the background of a reputation she never asked for. Quiet, composed, and far easier to overlook than to understand.

Mattheo Riddle, on the other hand, is impossible to ignore.

Feared by students, tolerated by teachers, and always at the centre of trouble, he moves through Hogwarts like he owns it. Reckless, untouchable, and dangerously charming.

They've known each other for years. They've never gotten along.

But when the Triwizard Tournament brings secrets to the surface, Aurelia finds herself pulled into something far more dangerous than school rivalries. Something Mattheo is already tangled in.

Forced into each other's orbit, their bickering turns into something sharper. Something heavier. Something neither of them can control.

Because behind Aurelia's silence is a storm she refuses to show. And behind Mattheo's chaos is a truth that could destroy everything.

In a world built on reputation, power, and secrets, they might be the most dangerous thing of all.
