Y/N Malfoy had always been Mattheo Riddle’s star. She was the girl he loved too loudly, too proudly, and without apology. Everyone knew she was his. Everyone knew he would burn the world down to keep her safe. Especially her older brother, Draco. But there was one person who watched their love from the shadows. Theodore Nott. Mattheo’s best friend. Draco’s trusted friend. Someone Y/N never had a reason to fear. Until the night she disappeared. With no body, no answers, and no explanation, everyone eventually accepts that Y/N is gone. Everyone except Mattheo. Years pass, but he never stops looking. Because Mattheo knows one thing for certain: His star is still out there. And when a single photograph finally proves that Y/N is alive, Mattheo begins uncovering secrets that were never meant to be found. Secrets involving the people closest to him. Secrets involving Theodore Nott. Because sometimes the person standing beside you isn’t there to protect you. Sometimes… they’re the reason everything fell apart. She was his star. He was her brother’s friend. And Theo Nott was the secret standing between them.
