Set during an alternate post-war Eighth Year at Hogwarts, House of Serpents follows an elite group of wealthy Slytherins trying to maintain their family reputations while privately unraveling beneath the pressure of legacy, status, obsession, and impossible expectations. * Pansy Parkinson and Mattheo Riddle constantly fighting, breaking up, and getting back together twenty minutes later, * Draco Malfoy struggling beneath the pressure of the Malfoy name while quietly falling for Astoria Greengrass, * Daphne Greengrass unraveling after realizing Draco will never choose her, * Blaise Zabini making everything worse by secretly sleeping with Daphne while refusing to take anything seriously, * Celestine Rosier ruling Hogwarts socially beside Cassia through beauty, drama, and chaos, * and Lorenzo Berkshire turning every party into a disaster simply by showing up. The story revolves around: * extravagant pureblood parties, * vicious gossip, * drunken arguments, * jealousy, * hookups, * social rivalries, * old family secrets, * and the pressure of carrying names that still haunt the wizarding world after the war. While everyone else struggles to maintain control publicly, Daphne slowly spirals trying to compete with girls who never have to ask for attention in the first place. And beneath all the glamour, wealth, and chaos is one terrifying truth: None of them know who they are without their last names.
