Y/N is running out of time. Her mother is lying in a hospital bed, waiting for a magical surgery that Y/N can’t afford. While the other students at Hogwarts worry about exams, Quidditch, and teenage romances, Y/N is quietly drowning beneath hospital bills and desperation. Then Mattheo Riddle offers her a solution. His inheritance comes with one condition: he must be married before he comes of age, or lose everything his family has built. Y/N needs money. Mattheo needs a wife. So they make a deal. A marriage of convenience. A contract. A year of pretending. Mattheo is convinced Y/N accepted because she wants the Riddle fortune. What he doesn’t know is that she never wanted his money. She only wanted her mother to live. And somewhere between stolen glances in the Slytherin common room, whispered conversations after curfew, forced smiles in the Hogwarts corridors, and nights spent pretending their marriage is real… Y/N makes the one mistake the contract forbids. She falls in love with her husband. Now she has to live with the fact that the boy who thinks she’s using him may never believe that her feelings are real. Because Mattheo Riddle can give her everything money can buy. But the one thing she wants from him— is something he can’t be forced to give.
