The Snake's Reflection | Tom Riddle X Reader

"You promised me that you wouldn't leave."

"Tom...I never left."

~.+*+.~

Fate is Cruel. Truly.

What if the dark Tom Riddle was never evil from the start? What if something important to him vanished and made him become a monster?

What if he had a lover that he never forgot about? A lover that was separated from him too early...

~.+*+.~

(Y/N) is an ordinary student at Hogwarts who struggles with Potions. Until one day, she finds the perfect study partner to revise with: a Slytherin boy with a closed heart and always a few metres away from her.

He knows nothing about love and affection, but a girl steps into his world and starts to make it shift.

But as their love gets stronger, (Y/N)'s fate draws near, and the boy's destiny to become the Dark Lord inches closer and closer every minute.

Will the two have a happy ending?
Or will an unexpected borderline cut the two apart forever?

~.+*+.~

If you're looking for a non-toxic and sad-love relashionship with Tom Riddle, this may be the Fanfiction for you!

This Fanfiction contains some angst caused by separation and love, and is not about dark love. Instead, it is about sad love.

I own none of the characters (except for some random ones I made), GIFs, and background settings. This Fanfiction is based on the Harry Potter series by J.K Rowling.
