Transferring to Hogwarts halfway through sixth year was never going to be easy. You expected the whispers, the rumors, and the curious stares that followed you through every corridor. What you didn’t expect was Theo Nott. Annoyingly charming, relentlessly sarcastic, and always one step ahead, he seems determined to make himself a permanent part of your life. Every conversation turns into playful banter. Every accidental encounter feels a little less accidental. Somewhere between stolen glances, late-night walks through the castle, and countless attempts to outwit each other, the line between rivalry and romance begins to blur. For the first time since arriving, Hogwarts starts to feel like home. But before you ever stepped foot inside the castle, your name had already become the center of a game. Theo made a bet he was certain he’d win. He never expected to lose his heart instead. Now the only question is whether love can survive a lie it was built on… or if some promises are broken long before they’re ever made.
Everyone at Hogwarts knows Y/N and Mattheo Riddle can’t go a single day without arguing. Their rivalry is legendary, their duels are practically entertainment, and neither of them has ever been willing to back down. So when they agree to one final duel, no one thinks twice about watching. Until one spell goes too far. Now, the rivalry that once felt harmless is replaced with guilt, silence, and feelings neither of them ever meant to face. Because sometimes the hardest person to forgive… is yourself.
In the wizarding world, everyone receives a soulmark the moment they realize they’re in love with their soulmate. Everyone except me. And Draco Malfoy. No one understands why we’re even friends. It started with an unlikely partnership in first year and somehow turned into seven years of late-night study sessions, endless teasing, Hogsmeade trips, and always choosing each other without a second thought. Everyone at Hogwarts assumes we’re dating. We’re not. What neither of us knows is that soulmarks have one forgotten exception. If two soulmates are equally oblivious to their feelings, neither mark will appear until both of them realize the truth. So while our friends place bets on when we’ll finally get together, we continue insisting we’re “just best friends”—completely unaware that the answer we’ve both been searching for has been standing beside us all along.
Everyone said loving Mattheo Riddle would end in heartbreak. You just never imagined it would happen in front of half of Hogwarts. One kiss shatters everything you thought you knew about your relationship. But as the lies begin to unravel, you discover the betrayal goes far deeper than a single mistake. Secrets become double lives, promises become manipulation, and every memory you once cherished starts to feel like another carefully crafted lie.
Everyone knew two things about you: you were hopelessly in love with Mattheo Riddle, and you couldn’t stand Draco Malfoy. So when Mattheo’s betrayal becomes the biggest scandal at Hogwarts, the last person you expect to notice your heartbreak is your lifelong rival. At first, Draco is just another person making jokes at your expense. But after witnessing the damage Mattheo left behind, something begins to change. His insults become quieter. His concern becomes harder to ignore. And somewhere between stolen glances, reluctant conversations, and a rivalry that no longer feels like hatred, you begin to question everything you thought you knew. After all, sometimes the person who breaks your heart isn’t the one you should’ve feared… It’s the person who helps you put it back together that changes everything.
Everyone at Hogwarts says falling in love with Mattheo Riddle changed Y/N. She laughs more. She trusts easier. She doesn’t start fights she can’t finish anymore. For the first time, people believe the girl with the dangerous reputation has finally left her past behind. The only problem? She never did. When old secrets resurface and the people she loves are put in danger, Y/N falls back on the only thing she’s ever trusted: herself. Lies become weapons, loyalty outweighs morality, and the lines between right and wrong blur until no one—not even Mattheo—recognizes the girl standing before them. As friendships fracture and trust begins to crumble, Mattheo is left wondering when the girl he loved became someone so cold. Y/N has the answer. She didn’t. She warned him from the very beginning. He just never believed she’d always be the girl she said she was.
You and Theodore Nott have never been friends. You’ve always existed somewhere between strangers and enemies, trading sarcastic remarks and pretending there’s nothing behind the tension between you. That changes after one reckless night. A forbidden party, too many drinks, and one drunken video later, the entire school is convinced you and Theo have been secretly dating for months. There’s only one problem: you don’t remember agreeing to any of it. And apparently, neither does Theo. Now you’re stuck pretending to be a couple while trying to piece together what really happened that night—and figuring out why being fake with Theodore Nott feels far too real.
Mattheo Riddle has always believed he can get anyone to like him. So when someone challenges him to make the one girl in Hogwarts who can’t stand him actually want to be around him, he accepts without hesitation. At first, it’s just a game. A way to prove he’s right. But somewhere between the arguments, late-night conversations, and moments neither of them expected, something changes. The girl who once hated him becomes the person he looks for in every room, and the challenge he started for fun becomes something far more dangerous. Because the only thing standing between them isn’t whether she’ll fall for him. It’s what happens when she finds out why he wanted her to in the first place.
When you transfer to Hogwarts from Beauxbatons halfway through the year, becoming the center of attention is the last thing you want. Unfortunately, two Slytherins have other plans. Convinced you don’t speak a word of Italian, Mattheo Riddle and Theodore Nott spend days talking about you right in front of you—judging your first impressions, making ridiculous bets, sharing secrets, and saying things they would never dare say in English. The only problem? You understand every single word. Instead of exposing them, you decide to play along. After all, people reveal far more when they think no one is listening. What starts as a harmless joke quickly spirals into something much bigger as teasing turns into friendship, friendship blurs into feelings, and the secret you’ve been keeping becomes harder to justify with every passing day. Because the more Mattheo lets his guard down in a language he thinks only his friends understand… …the harder it’s going to be when he discovers you’ve heard every word from the very beginning.
One day, Y/N wakes up to discover that everyone at Hogwarts has forgotten her. Not just her friends. Not just her professors. Everyone. Her name has vanished from school records, photographs no longer show her face, and every memory of her has been erased as if she never existed. As Y/N searches for answers, strange cracks begin to appear in the spell. A familiar glance. A forgotten dream. A feeling that someone should be there. The more people begin to remember, the more dangerous the truth becomes. Because Y/N wasn’t erased by accident. Someone wanted the wizarding world to forget she ever existed—and they’ll do anything to make sure it stays that way. you’re not a ghost they just don’t remember who you are
Three years ago, you disappeared without a trace. No goodbye. No explanation. No one knew where you went—or if you were even alive. Now, you’ve returned to Hogwarts. But the girl who walked through those doors three years ago is gone. You’re stronger. Colder. More powerful than anyone could have imagined, carrying secrets that you refuse to explain. Theo Nott thought he’d lost you forever. Now that you’re back, he’s determined to find out what happened to you. But some secrets are better left buried. Because someone spent three years turning you into something powerful. And they may not be finished with you yet.
Everyone at Hogwarts thinks you and Mattheo Riddle can’t stand each other. They’re wrong. Years of hidden feelings have been buried beneath bruised egos, endless arguments, and a rivalry neither of you is willing to lose. But when one reckless duel meant to settle the score spirals out of control, a single spell changes everything. Now, with guilt hanging heavier than pride, the line between love and rivalry has never been more impossible to ignore.
Everyone at Hogwarts knows you and Mattheo Riddle hate each other. You argue in every class, compete over everything, and never miss an opportunity to get under each other’s skin. So when a prank involving diluted Veritaserum makes lying impossible, one innocent question turns your years-long rivalry upside down. Now the entire school knows the truth… including the two of you. The potion may have worn off, but the confessions didn’t. And pretending to hate each other has never been harder.
Y/N and Mattheo Riddle have always had one thing in common: neither of them knows when to shut up. Their constant bickering is practically legendary at Hogwarts. Insults, arguments, and sarcastic remarks are normal between them—but there’s always been an unspoken line. No matter how angry they get, they never use each other’s deepest insecurities against one another. Until one argument goes too far. Mattheo says something he can never take back. And for the first time, Y/N doesn’t argue back. She just walks away. Now Mattheo has to face the one thing he’s never been good at: admitting when he’s wrong—and figuring out how to fix something that might already be broken.
Everyone at Hogwarts knows your rivalry with Mattheo Riddle. The arguments, the duels, the constant competition—it’s practically part of the school’s daily routine. But during one duel, something unexpected happens. You flinch. It only lasts a second. No one else notices. Mattheo does. Now he can’t stop wondering why the one person he thought was fearless looked terrified of a harmless spell… and the more he looks for answers, the harder it becomes to pretend you were ever just his rival.
Once upon a time, loving Mattheo Riddle felt like the easiest thing in the world. Then, somewhere between whispered promises and silent apologies, she stopped recognizing the girl staring back at her. When Mattheo ends their relationship without warning, she’s left picking apart every memory, convinced she was the reason he walked away. As the truth about their relationship slowly unfolds, she realizes the breakup wasn’t what broke her—it was everything that came before it.
Mattheo Riddle and Y/N don’t know how to fight fair. Every disagreement becomes a competition. Who apologized last. Who sacrificed more. Who loved harder. Who hurt the other worse. What once started as playful bickering slowly turns into something neither of them can control. Every argument leaves another tally mark, every harsh word becomes ammunition for the next fight, and every “I’m sorry” feels less like an apology and more like admitting defeat. Their friends watch the cracks spread. They insist they’re fine. After all, they’re still together. But when one devastating argument forces every buried resentment into the open, Mattheo and Y/N are left with one impossible question: What happens when you finally win the fight… …and realize you’ve lost the person you were fighting for?
Everyone had something to say about Draco Malfoy. Arrogant. Cruel. Just like his father. Y/N spent years proving them wrong. She knew the version of Draco no one else did—the boy behind the sharp tongue, the stolen smiles, and the walls he built around himself. While everyone else saw someone destined to become the man his family wanted him to be, she believed he could choose a different path. Then sixth year arrives, and the boy she’s always defended begins slipping through her fingers. Conversations turn into silence. Promises become lies. The distance between them grows with every secret he refuses to share. As her friends beg her to let him go, Y/N finds herself holding on even tighter, convinced that love is enough to save someone from the life they’ve been born into. But sometimes the hardest part of losing someone isn’t the goodbye. It’s realizing you saw it coming all along.
Everyone thought Y/N and Mattheo Riddle were forever. They were the couple everyone envied—the kind of love that felt impossible to break. She loved him through his anger, his flaws, and every part of himself he tried to hide. She believed that no matter what happened, they would always find their way back to each other. Until she found out he had been unfaithful. For months, Mattheo had been living a life she knew nothing about. And when the truth finally came out, the person she expected to fight for her the most was the one who let her walk away. So she left. But leaving someone doesn’t mean you stop loving them. For years, a part of Y/N waited for him to come back. She convinced herself that one day he’d realize what he lost, that he’d finally become the person she always believed he could be. But while she was waiting for him to change, she was changing too. Slowly, she learned how to live without him. How to laugh without him. How to build a life that didn’t depend on someone choosing her. Then Mattheo comes back—older, different, and finally ready to give her the love she deserved. The only problem? He’s finally ready at the exact moment she’s finally free.
The first party after the war is supposed to be a fresh start. For everyone else, it’s just one night to celebrate surviving. For Y/N, it’s something more. Every song, every decoration, every tiny detail was chosen because of one conversation Draco Malfoy had long since forgotten. She never expected him to notice—not really—but a part of her couldn’t help hoping he would. He does show up. Just not for her. As Draco spends the night laughing with someone else, Y/N watches from across the room, convincing herself he’ll come over eventually. He never does. What neither of them realizes is that they’re both waiting for something the other is too afraid—or too oblivious—to say. Sometimes love isn’t about falling. Sometimes it’s about all the moments you let pass before realizing someone had been choosing you all along.
Everyone at Hogwarts knows one thing: you and Mattheo Riddle can’t stand each other. Every conversation ends in an argument, every class becomes a competition, and every insult is met with an even better one. So when Mattheo steps in after another student grabs your wrist and blurts out, “She’s mine to argue with,” the entire school is convinced your rivalry has been hiding something else all along. Now you’re both stuck dealing with endless rumors, meddling friends, and a growing realization that the line between love and hate may have disappeared long before either of you noticed. After all, if you hate someone that much… Why are they always the first person you look for?
Every meal at Hogwarts ends the same way. The Great Hall is completely full… except for one seat. The chair directly across from Mattheo Riddle is always empty. At first, you assume it’s a coincidence. Then it happens again. And again. Before long, you realize no one is allowed to sit there—except you. The problem? You and Mattheo can barely go five minutes without arguing. Determined to figure out why the seat is always waiting for you, you start digging for answers. But the more you ask, the more everyone seems determined to keep the truth from you. Maybe it’s just a chair. Or maybe it never was.
Everyone knows Draco Malfoy and Y/N are either the perfect couple or the biggest disaster at Hogwarts. They love each other in a way that feels impossible to walk away from, but they hurt each other in ways they can’t seem to stop. Between explosive arguments, stubborn pride, and words they can’t take back, their relationship has become a cycle of breaking apart and finding their way back together. Draco knows how to push people away before they can hurt him. Y/N knows how to fight for the people she loves, even when she’s the one getting hurt. They bring out the best and worst in each other — and everyone around them can see that love might not be enough to save them. Because sometimes the person who feels like home is also the person who destroys your peace. And the hardest truth they’ll ever have to face is this: They love each other. They just don’t know how to stop hurting each other.
