bound by darkness
In the shadowy halls of Hogwarts, where secrets coil as tightly as the serpents in Slytherin's emblem, you find yourself tangled in the dangerous world of Mattheo Riddle-the enigmatic and rebellious son of Voldemort. Mattheo is as intoxicating as he is infuriating, his piercing gaze hiding a past as scarred as your own. What begins as a clash of wills soon evolves into a perilous dance of forbidden desire. In the glow of forbidden parties, whispered meetings in dark corridors, and fleeting touches beneath the watchful eyes of your enemies, you find solace-and danger-in each other. But Mattheo's world is one of dark magic and betrayal, and the walls you've both built to protect yourselves may not survive the firestorm that comes when love and loyalty collide. Will the darkness consume you, or will you find light in the arms of the one person you were never meant to love? A tale of trauma, trust, and temptation, this enemies-to-lovers story will take you on a journey where hearts are broken, loyalties are tested, and passion burns brighter than magic.Complete
