Night McCallister is a seventh-year Slytherin with secrets darker than the house he was sorted into. Raised to serve the Dark Lord, Night has carried out unspeakable acts-things no teenager should be forced to do. He sees himself as nothing more than a weapon, a cold, unfeeling monster with one purpose: obedience.
But everything begins to unravel when he crosses paths with Allorah Finnegan, a sixth-year Hufflepuff with a soft heart and a past she can't remember. From the moment they meet, she feels an inexplicable connection to him-one she can't ignore, no matter how dangerous he seems.
As their worlds collide, Allorah begins to wonder: could Night be the missing link to her forgotten history? And Night, haunted by what he's done, begins to question whether his path is truly set in stone... or if Allorah might be the key to awakening the humanity he thought he'd buried long ago.

My Missing piece (Harmione)
Attention, potential readers of my book! Brace yourselves for a rollercoaster of emotions, because in "My Missing Piece (Harmione)," you'll find more drama than a quidditch match with broomstick malfunctions. We're talking self-harm, torture, and enough blood to make a vampire blush. If you're as sensitive as a blast-ended skrewt, consider steering clear. But for the brave souls out there, here's a sneak peek: This tale kicks off just a month after the Hogwarts showdown, and Harry's got it bad for Hermione. Ever since the Yule Ball, he's been head over heels for the brightest, smartest, funniest, and most drop-dead gorgeous witch he's ever laid eyes on. But will Hermione reciprocate his feelings, or will their friendship go up in flames faster than a Weasley's fireworks display? Dive into this fanfiction and discover the answer, if you dare! ⚡? ***** "Harry?" Hermione called out. Harry's heart plummeted like a bludger to the gut. If she asked the one question he'd been praying she wouldn't, he might as well take a one-way trip to Azkaban for awkwardness. Their friendship, he feared, would be more shattered than a crystal ball dropped from the Astronomy Tower. Harry clung to the hope that she'd ask about anything else, but it seemed fate had a twisted sense of humor. Slowly, he turned to face those enchanting chocolate brown eyes he could never get enough of. She spoke the words he'd been trying to dodge like a rogue bludger. "Why didn't you spill the beans about being head over heels for me, Harry?" Hermione inquired, leaving him in a pit of utter despair. And so, the tale of Harry's romantic blunders began, filled with more twists and turns than a Niffler's chase for shiny objects. ?Complete![Mystique → Hermione Granger [2] ✔](https://img.wattpad.com/cover/259412110-256-k630166.jpg)

ℳ𝒶𝓰𝓃𝓮𝓉𝒾𝔃𝓮𝒹 𝓓. 𝓜.
Hailey Groves never expected her sixth year at Hogwarts to be anything but ordinary. A Slytherin with sharp wit and loyal friends, she was used to navigating the complexities of Hogwarts life. But something about this year felt different. Off. Like something was waiting in the shadows-something she couldn't yet name. Then Draco Malfoy noticed her. He'd spent years keeping his distance, throwing jabs and cold stares. But now he was watching her differently-like he saw something familiar. Something fractured. Her friends said he was dangerous. But Hailey knew better. She saw through the mask: a boy who was protecting his life but losing his mind, who moved like survival was his only option. A boy who'd been forced into darkness before he understood its cost. And Hailey? She wasn't afraid of it. She stepped into it willingly, determined to help him carry the weight. Draco had secrets. But so did Hailey. And when the truth about her mother's death begins to unravel-when the web of lies surrounding her bloodline is finally exposed-Hailey must decide how deep she's willing to go for answers... and whether love is enough to keep her above water. Trigger warnings: depression, death, violence, alcohol, self harm, and attempt of suicide. (This is my first fanfic, so please be kind! And don't get scared by how many chapters there are. The first chapters are really short and then they get much longer.) Most characters belong to J. K. RowlingComplete

Smoke and Moonstone
This is more for people that deeply love Harry Potter and didn't want it to end. I've done my best to create a canon-adjacent side story. I wanted to give voices and dimensions to characters who were originally left out (or not main characters). That being said, I do add a few things (like tarot). I try really hard to keep the same voice and feel as the original Harry Potter books. ------***------***------***------***------***------***------***------***------***------***------***------*** When Maeve Boevin transfers from Ilvermorny to Hogwarts in her fifth year, all she wants is to disappear quietly into the stonework. Instead, she's dropped into Slytherin, where ambition cuts like glass, alliances are ancient, and secrets cling to the walls like damp. Her magic is too raw. Her grief too loud. Her mother's vanished into men and merlot, and Maeve is left picking through the broken glass. And then there's him. Regulus Black. Beautiful, brilliant, and far too careful for his own good. He shouldn't look at her. But he does. And she lets him. He's the first one to see her, really see her, and she doesn't know how to let him go. But the dungeons hold darker things than loneliness. Severus Snape watches her like a curse that's already been cast. Cold. Calculating. Threaded with brilliance and something older, darker, buried. He doesn't love her. But he knows things. And that knowing may ruin them both. Maeve is torn between the boy she wants to run toward... And the boy who feels like a warning. With tarot cards that burn her hands and magic that remembers too much, she walks a thin line between fate and choice, love and obsession, safety and power. This isn't a love story. But something is binding. Slow-burn. Canon-era. Dark academia meets magical dread. Maeve x Regulus (first love / tragedy). Maeve x Severus (haunting / unchosen). Rated 18+ for language, trauma, grief, smut, and the kind of magic that doesn't let go.
