Summary
What would have been different if Albus Dumbledore had a granddaughter?
If she was just another pawn in his plans, left behind to carry on his legacy? After all, grandpapa always played the long game.
It’s been six years since the final battle. Abigail Dumbledore is a widowed mother to a six-year-old, and the only truly good thing in her life was the love she shared with Fred Weasley and their daughter. But Freddie is long gone, and now Abby has to carry the weight of legacy — and shape a better future, for Janey’s sake.
To make her plans work, she’ll need help. From a few trusted friends.
And one enemy.
She was betrothed to him when she was just a child — a pureblood vow that was never broken. She never intended to use it. But now, after six years in Azkaban, they’re planning to give Draco Malfoy the Dementor’s Kiss.
She made a promise to her grandfather: she would try to save him, no matter what.
And Albus Dumbledore was never wrong.
If he saw something good in Draco Malfoy, then maybe — just maybe — there’s something left to fight for.
Even if it means sacrificing her peace, her relationships, the life she’s built — and marrying the ex-Death Eater rotting in prison. -

Summary
Thy mind is sunder’d, thy flesh is bound by oaths, and thy heart belongeth unto him who claimeth passion as his own.
He granteth thee promises of eternity, and each seemeth a solace—yet behind them lieth the price: thy freedom.
Thou seekest thyself, yet findest but new chains, e’er more tightly entwining thee with him.
In a world of blood, of dominion, and of grey morality, no saviours dwell—only pain and obsession from which thine eyes may ne’er turn away.
And the voice of the Father whispereth in thy mind by night.

🕯️ Polished AO3 Summary – Angelique Speaks
Welcome to Angelique: Beyond the Shadows — a Dark Shadows fanfiction.
This is the untold story of Angelique.
Inspired by the original series, I seek to explore her past, to uncover the innocent girl who became the shape-shifter, the sorceress, the woman you loved to hate.My goal is to humanize Angelique — to move beyond the betrayal and jealousy, and reveal a soul forged by love, loss, and the brutal cost of survival.
Through this narrative, I invite you to see her as I see her.
I am Angelique.
I am a witch.
And this… is my truth. -

Summary
What Remains is a dark, dreamy exploration of memory, magic, and the things we can’t quite forget, even when we try.
Hermione Granger oversees the Archive: a vast, living vault of magical memory buried deep beneath the Ministry. Memories are going missing. People are unraveling. And the magic holding everything together is beginning to... shift. The Ministry wants answers, and they’ve brought in an outside consultant to help her find them—Draco Malfoy. Reformed. Brilliant. Still impossible.
What starts as a tense partnership quickly becomes something far stranger. And the deeper they go into the Archive’s secrets, the more it seems to be watching them, shaping itself around their history, their regrets, and something else neither of them can name.
The war is over, but the scars are deep. Magic has grown colder, quieter, and more dangerous.
If you’re drawn to stories that blur the line between romance and haunting, between past and present; if you like sentient structures, a powerful Hermione, a morally gray Draco who never really stopped burning, and magic that feels like myth, then this one’s for you.
And fair warning: the Archive always takes something in return.Series

Summary
Harry Potter’s story was never meant to be walked alone. In the Great Hall, another name is called — Kaelen Vyer Rosethorn, a proud and sharp-eyed boy with pureblood roots and secrets buried deep. From that moment, Hogwarts shifts.
Kael is not simply a friend; he becomes Harry’s anchor, his rival, his temptation. Between Gryffindor fire and Slytherin shadows, alliances twist, pranks grow darker, and power begins to whisper around them. This is the story of how a boy with violet eyes changes destiny — and how Harry Potter begins to become something far more dangerous than the world expected.'
I live in fiction more than reality. I love exploring “what if” paths, darker shades of characters, and slow-burn power dynamics. This is my corner to reimagine Harry Potter with new bonds, sharp edges, and a touch of obsession. Comments are welcome, but mostly — I write because I can’t stop imagining.

Summary
And the worst of it, she realizes, is the unbearable truth: he is good.
Draco Malfoy was never meant to be good.
He has always felt like a pendulum swung askew, unable to settle on which side he belongs to. He is the very embodiment of a coin with two faces, Light and Dark, destined to spin for eternity. He has never let fate play her hand. He will always bend the will of the gods to service his own survival.
Goodness in him isn’t light, isn’t warmth. It is the precision of cut-glass honesty so brutal that when it shatters, it leaves splinters buried like cactus spines beneath her skin. He does not offer refuge, because unlike her, he never flinches at the truth’s ugliness.
She hates him for it.
But she envies him for it, too.
Hermione proposes a mission for herself: wear the skin of a notorious Death Eater, infiltrate the Dark Lord’s ranks, and end the war once and for all.
But as she’s pulled deeper into the fractured war effort, strange memories surface of a past she can’t quite grasp, full of stolen looks, battles she hasn’t fought, and hands she swears have held her before.

Summary
There are worlds woven from threads no eye can see, where dreams drift like fragile ghosts and the air hums with quiet menace. Aletheia was never meant to walk between these realms, a gift tangled in shadows, a thread pulled too tight. Here, monsters do not merely lurk; they devour, walk unseen among us, and every whispered secret threatens to unravel the mind.
In the weave of this ancient cosmos, where fate is stitched with fragile strands of magic and betrayal, truth slips between light and dark. The line between savior and sinner is drawn on a fraying rope, the last fragile connection to a world slipping away. Every choice pulls her deeper into a haunted labyrinth of desire, rage, and forgotten promises, where the final words whispered in dreams bind the beginning to the end. Dream Eaters invites you to wander a whimsical, surrealistic world where nothing is quite as it seems. And perhaps something has already followed you out, still watching you.... wide awake.
