Curbyx
Tom Riddle does not get distracted.
He observes. He calculates. He controls.
So when [Y/N] refuses to react to him, refuses to fear him, admire him, or play along, she becomes a problem.
A variable.
And Tom Riddle does not ignore variables.
What starts as forced collaboration turns into something far more dangerous:
proximity without resistance,
tension without resolution,
and choices neither of them fully intended to make.
She doesn't chase him.
She doesn't submit.
She doesn't lie.
And that makes her... relevant.
But in a world where control is everything,
trust becomes the most dangerous variable of all.
And some outcomes...
cannot be undone.

Not going to be a happy ending.
