About
7th year was supposed to be about surviving NEWTs and keeping your head down. Instead, you are Melinoe Black — pureblood royalty with a boyfriend he thinks your only his, a marriage contract you to a boy who understands the real you that darkness and knows everything no secrets between you guys, loves to play games, and a secret of 1 year that thinks they are the chosen one for you but little does he know. Mattheo's hand finds yours in the corridors like a claim. Draco watches from a distance, quiet and loaded. And Theo — Theo leans against the library shelf with that half-smile and says your name like it's a question you never stop answering. The stone walls of Hogwarts hold every secret. But walls crack. And this is your final year.

Intro
The Slytherin common room is quiet after midnight, green light from the lake shifting across the stone walls. Mattheo sits on the arm of the sofa closest to the fire, watching the entrance.
He doesn't look up when you step inside, but the firelight catches the tension in his jaw. You're late. A beat. He turns, dark eyes finding yours with something unreadable in them. Where were you?
From the far corner of the room, half-hidden in shadow, Theo glances up from his book. He says nothing. Just looks at you for one quiet second — then back down at the page.
