It's 1976, and the Wizarding World is changing in the blink of an eye. 
Finally free from silence, Lark Riddle doesn't know what to do with herself.  Her older brother, Tom, is breathing down her neck from hundreds of miles away every moment, and she just might snap under the pressure. With a mother who birthed her into the worst-case-scenario and a father who has yet to be discovered, she feels as though there's no longer a net to fall into if she crumbles to the ground...because she's never felt love, and has a sneaking suspicion that she may be unable to. She's left her old friends, Severus Snape and the notorious Black sisters in her wake, and has yet to move on to bigger, brighter prospects: the Marauders.  
Sirius Black has more than enough on his shoulders. While he makes every move he can to stay away from his psychotic ex-family and their allies, rumor has it that there's a war on, and he'll be playing a bigger part in it than he expected.  Though this talk of fighting and standing up for what's right is all so thrilling, he has a life, a reputation, and an education to uphold (and all three seem to be plummeting to certain doom at terminal velocity). Lark knows what it's like: feeling alone and living in a world of darkness where the only light is the hope that she can provide for herself, whether it's real or not, and chances are that she may be the only person who will ever make him feel the way that he does when he's around her.

"You're just a spineless, big-headed, moron Potter. Why on earth would I go out with a fleabag like you?"

"So we're alone," he said slowly. "That's a thoughtful observation," she whispered. She could feel her fingertips tremble slightly as they clasped around his hair. She didn't know why she suddenly felt so nervous. She moved her hands and allowed her fingers to trail slowly and gently down the side of his face and he involuntarily shivered at her touch. Eventually her fingers landed on his lips and she traced across them softly. They parted slightly and she could hear and feel him let out what she assumed to be an unintentional breath. He moved inwards, his lips pulling from her fingertips to hover near her ear. "I'm a thoughtful person." * After getting accepted into the Healer training program and moving to London, Marlene begins her life outside of Hogwarts. Despite the looming dangers of war, she has a pretty decent life; she has friends who care about her, a boyfriend who loves her, and the determination to keep fighting for a life worth living. But it doesn't take long for Marlene to begin questioning her choices. As the world is falling apart around her, so are her relationships and any certainty that she once had. Except for Sirius; the only certainty she has left in the world. However, war only seems to be threatening to tear them apart. She can't quite put her finger on what has started changing, but something certainly has, and love may not be enough to get her through it this time. It is only a matter of time before Marlene must make the most important choice of all; join the war or fall apart.

Going to Hogwarts is nothing like attending any other school. For one, you get to live most of the year in the grand and majestic castle. Second, you are sorted into different houses where you can garner relationships, some of which will become even truer than family. You may not be able to choose your family, but you get to choose your friends. Choose wisely and you may create a new family unlike what you could have ever imagined. Belladonna, a pureblood witch, is embarking on her first adventurous year at Hogwarts. Unlike most purebloods, she does not live and breathe 'blood purity'. Bell stands out from what is expected of her. She starts out as an impressionable, naiive young girl, but evolves into a stronger and more independent leader. With her growing friendships and the disillusionment of who her family truly is, Bell will begin her adventure to becoming the greatest witch of her age. The only question remaining: Will one witch be enough to make a difference in a secret world that's been tainted by corruption and prejudice? *** *Slow burn, but a bunch of fluff to make you smile!* *This is marked Mature: -sorry no smut, they aren't even teens yet! -there is violence and bullying. -Voldemort has some dark ideas and his followers choose to live by them. *this story begins their first year at Hogwarts. It's the first book of the series. *This story contains mild violence and fighting. As it progresses, there will be darker themes of hatred, abuse and segregation.
