***This book follows the events from Virtue&Vanity in Sebastian's POV***
There are other important things in this world, not just money. It is the truth that Sebastian Everett still needs to learn. Being a cold and ruthless businessman, raised in a family that valued only material possessions, he thought there wasn't any other kind of love than the love for wealth and power. When an unwanted woman enters his life under false pretenses of sharing his kind of love, he will do the unthinkable only to give her a taste of her own medicine. But when the girl who was nothing in his eyes gradually makes him doubt everything he has ever known, Sebastian will realize that sometimes everything is not what it seems to be and there are things that even stacks of green dollars can't make up for.

Obliviate (Hogwarts Legacy Sequel Feat. Dark!Sebastian Sallow) by CartoonFuel

In a weird way, your heart would ache whenever you saw Sebastian smile, or whenever you'd hear him laugh. His joy wasn't real. He was clearly confused but played it off with sly jokes and remarks. Whatever Ominis did most definitely worked, and so far, no real problems had occurred. However, this constant voice in the back of your mind likes to remind you of the potential for complications. You have betrayed Sebastian not once, but twice. If he were to ever find out the truth about his past, everything would go up in flames-possibly quite literally. ~ You and Ominis turned in Sebastian for his use of the Dark Arts during the events of Hogwarts Legacy, therefore sending him to Azkaban. During your final year (seventh) at Hogwarts, Sebastian manages to escape, setting his sights on the both of you. In a desperate attempt to save your life, Ominis uses the Memory Charm on Sebastian, wiping Azkaban, Anne and Solomon from his mind. ~ This has some romance elements (love triangle), but is primarily fantasy thriller! Just make sure that's your cup of tea before you start reading. The story will get extremely dark as it progresses. Now includes media (music/trailers)!
