Y/n never expected to become a target. One moment her life is normal. The next, someone is following her. Watching her. Leaving behind signs that they’re getting closer. The Ministry takes the threat seriously. Because when y/n arrives home one evening, she finds Mattheo Riddle sitting comfortably on her couch. Apparently, he’s her assigned protection. Nobody cares that she and Mattheo haven’t managed a normal conversation in years. She’s not allowed to stay alone. And Mattheo isn’t leaving. The closer the threat gets, the harder it becomes to ignore the feelings growing between them. Especially when every day could be their last.
