Lorenzo Berkshire has a reputation: painfully shy, hopelessly awkward, and completely incapable of talking to girls without tripping over his own words. So when he stands up and tells them that he has a girlfriend—you—no one believes him.
You transfer to Durmstrang in your fifth year, leaving Hogwarts behind for something harsher, colder—more honest. Almost immediately, you clash with Nikolai Dolohov: arrogant, dangerous, and far too comfortable with dark magic. Your first interaction turns into a duel. It doesn’t end cleanly, and neither of you forgets it. but when you both realise your in love…?
Nikolai Dolohov, the sharp-edged Durmstrang transfer with a reputation that keeps most students at a distance, unexpectedly clicks with you from the moment your paths cross, his guarded demeanor softening in ways only you seem to notice. What starts as an easy friendship quickly becomes something deeper—an unspoken understanding that feels far too natural for two people who have only just met.
