Summary
Immortality is not a gift. It is the slow burn of memory, of guilt, of watching the world forget.
The war is over. The hero has won. But not in the way the stories tell it.
Harry Potter did not die in the Forbidden Forest. He mastered the Elder Wand and ended the war with power, not sacrifice. Voldemort was defeated—but not destroyed. A final Horcrux remains, buried inside Harry like a secret scar. And so a prison is built. Deep underground. Magic-proof. Eternal.
And Harry volunteers to guard it.
Centuries pass. History turns to myth. Outside, the world heals. Inside, two men remain—one frozen in time, the other unable to leave.
This is not a redemption story.
This is obsession. Penance. The intimacy of watching a monster fade into silence—and realising too late he may not be the only one left.A dark, gothic romance about memory, mercy, and what it means to be the last witness to your own ruin.

Summary
All Voldemort has ever wanted is glory, and the world on its knees. But prophecy tells him of a boy who will be his equal.
Voldemort's obsession with killing Harry Potter grinds to a halt when he discovers what Harry is. Killing him isn’t an option. But sparing him reveals a weakness Voldemort never knew he had. What begins as a battle for power becomes a struggle with something far more dangerous: attachment. As Harry challenges everything Voldemort believes, the Dark Lord must decide what he truly fears more: death, or love.
This is Voldemort’s story. And some enemies can’t be conquered…only changed.

Summary
Whatever carefully blank expression Lestat is trying on disappears like a slap. “Armand made a fledgling. Why would he do that?” Lestat asks.
“Oh, you know,” Louis says, watching the three dots of a new text pop up. “He knew Daniel was… important to me.”
He means to say it with rueful annoyance, as if to say, “so he ruined him.” But as Daniel’s text comes in—the most important question I should have asked you in that fucking interview: where do you buy coke in Dubai?—Louis’s voice trails off, his words maybe lacking some of the bite.
or
Lestat misunderstands what Daniel is to Louis and tries to be a champ about it. Meanwhile Louis rediscovers his drug of choice—Lestat.

Summary
While dealing with the repercussions of his father's imprisonment, Draco Malfoy receives a desperate letter from his arch-nemesis, Harry Potter. He replies, careful to keep himself anonymous, but their tenuous correspondence can only last so long as sixth year approaches, and with it, all the trouble Draco has been so carefully avoiding.
