    Summary

    “You took a lot out of him, you greedy girl,” Theo says softly into her hair with a touch of a laugh, “and he took on more than he needed to, of course, the selfish git.”

    She follows him with her eyes, the questions too hard to voice, still afraid of the pain of her ruined throat. He cuddles Draco against his chest, propping him up. “I’m taking this one for the team, you know,” he said, his voice still gentle, his eyes still playful, “Remember that I’m here for you too, darling.”

    He swipes his fingers through her blood still cooling on the floor around her and smears it gently on Draco’s lips as though applying a layer of gloss. It shines for a moment before Draco’s lips part, before his tongue darts out, before he licks at the drip at the corner and he… moans.

    A magical creature is murdering ordinary folk all over Wiltshire, and Auror Hermione Granger has an idea what it could possibly be. Being right is cold comfort though, if she actually manages to get herself murdered in the process. Will it mean a deal with the devil just to stay alive?

    Summary

    Astarion tilts his head to the side, considering her. “Surely your needs can't be so difficult to meet. It sounds like you've had bad lovers.”

    Shadowheart snorts. Auri can't stop thinking about what Astarion said in bed the other night. She says, “The problem is that I have trouble letting go of control with people that I don't trust. And people that I trust are few and far between.”

    Astarion smirks. “Yes, I can see how that would be difficult. I tend to be the one doing the controlling, if we can call it that, but letting it go can be just as…” Astarion trails off as if searching for the perfect word. “Fulfilling.”

    Auri blinks. “W– what?”

    Summary

    "I can send you back. Not to your body, but to one many years ago. Harry, you must fix the natural order of Death, on my behalf."

     

    Harry's breath faltered. It was all so confusing... Harry had died. He had died and spoken to Death and suddenly he was standing in Hogwarts, in 1942, and the Sorting Hat had just pronounced him Slytherin. Death had chuckled at that.

    Summary

    "Precious Horcrux..."

    The two possessive, cloying words, hissed low, made Harrie feel nauseous.

    "I'm not going to kill you. I'm going to keep you."

    Summary

    Appetence: defined as an attraction, a natural affinity, or an instinctive desire. In other words, it's a cosmic sort of bond that clouds the mind until all thought is consumed by that singular point of infatuation.

    When Voldemort divines what Harrie Potter truly means to him in the graveyard, a festering obsession begins. His horcrux. A part of his wayward soul, crafted from his marrow, magic, and might— his very own damning appetence.

    He knows what has been kept from him, what rightfully belongs at his side, and now?

    Well.

    Now, he wants her back.
