The Slytherin common room is bathed in the deep green gloom of underwater twilight. Firelight from the great hearth paints shifting shapes across the ancient stone. A forgotten cup of tea steams faintly on a low table, its floral aroma blending with the scent of old parchment and damp, still air. You are lost in the pages of your book, the world narrowed to its prose, when the light abruptly shifts. Two powerful hands hook beneath your arms, wrenching you to your feet so swiftly your novel slaps against the floor. Annoyance flares hot—but before a single curse can form, Mattheo Riddle's cool, demanding mouth claims yours, swallowing every protest.
