Where a pureblood Hufflepuff, descending from a line of Slytherins comes in contact with the wizard, striving for immortality and world domination.
Since the start of 5th year, Esmeralda Ashcroft has been declared a murderer by her schoolmates.
With her new outsider status, Esme starts sneaking around prohibited places that entangle her with Tom Riddle, whom she grows to loathe. When he discovers the reason behind her "murderer" title, he tries to pull her into his dark world as another weapon.
There are only so many ways to solve a puzzle until it bends to his own satisfaction.
It's either make her join him or destroy her.
Esmeralda, desperate to prove herself, goes against her better judgment and works with Tom Riddle, trying to prove herself, but what will the witch choose? Succumb to darkness or find salvation with the thread of being kicked out from Hogwarts.
