Roxana Dusk's birth on a full moon night marked the beginning of a prophecy that would shape the future. Born into the Dusk family, whose bloodline was tied to the ancient Obsidian Phoenix, Roxana carried powers linked to the cosmos. Her mother, Eleanor, and her father, Lord Thaddeus, were mysterious figures, guardians of the Phoenix's secret. From an early age, Roxana's presence was magnetic, her silver-grey eyes gleaming with an intensity beyond her years, hinting at the dormant magic inside her.
While Roxana's destiny was tied to celestial forces, far away, Tom Riddle-soon to become Lord Voldemort-was growing in darkness. Abandoned and raised in an orphanage, Tom's affinity for dark magic fueled his ambition. By the time he arrived at Hogwarts, his obsession with power and control had already begun to define him.
Roxana's path took her to Hogwarts, where she was placed in Slytherin, unaware of the full extent of her abilities. On her twelfth birthday, under the full moon, the magic within her would awaken, connecting her to the Obsidian Phoenix. Her powers were ancient, capable of bending time, death, and reality itself.
As her powers grew, so did Tom's. His quest for dominance would soon bring him into conflict with Roxana. Their paths, though initially separated, were destined to cross. While Tom sought to control and destroy, Roxana would learn to shape her destiny, guided by the celestial forces within her. She would rise to challenge him, and perhaps surpass him, becoming a force that would forever alter the wizarding world.
The prophecy was clear: Roxana Dusk, the girl born under the full moon, would change everything.
You never expected to want Tom Riddle. And he never expected to want you.
You were born into power. A name that held weight, a family that demanded perfection. As the eldest daughter of the Hayse bloodline, your future had always been carefully orchestrated-until the night you were summoned downstairs and your fate was sealed.
An arranged marriage. A name you knew but a boy you had never truly understood. Tom Marvolo Riddle.
Silent, calculating, dangerous. He sat across from you, unreadable as ever, learning of your forced betrothal at the same time you did. But while you wrestled with your emotions, he remained unmoved-at least, on the surface.
At Hogwarts, the rumors spread like wildfire. Some believed it was love, others whispered of force, but the truth was the rarest tale of all. You and Tom were bound by duty, trapped in a facade neither of you wanted, yet forced to maintain.
But the lines began to blur. In stolen glances, in shared silences, in the moments where you realized the boy with darkness in his veins might not be as indifferent as he seemed. And when he finally let his mask slip, you saw the truth-his desire, his frustration, and the one thing he hated most.
That he wanted you.
But pretending to love Tom Riddle is one thing. The real problem? You're starting to.
And in a world where blood is sacred and betrayal is deadly, love is the most dangerous thing of all.
