Y/N is an Augustine researcher assigned to Enzo St. John, a vampire imprisoned and experimented on for years. Unlike the others, she treats him like a person rather than a specimen. As Y/N grows closer to him, Enzo begins to trust her despite himself, while Augustine's experiments grow increasingly cruel. Neither of them realizes just how much their bond will cost them.
Sirius Black was born to be a pure-blood heir. Instead, he became Hogwarts' most reckless Gryffindor, a Marauder, and a boy determined to become nothing like his family. But after a cruel prank nearly costs someone their life, Sirius's world begins to fracture. With James furious, Remus refusing to speak to him, and guilt eating through his usual arrogance, Sirius is forced to face the one thing he can't hex, outrun, or joke away: the possibility that the darkness he escaped might still live inside him.
