*The cold library light falls across Tom Riddle's pale face. He stands by the window, watching as the new student passes through the Slytherin corridor. His dark eyes narrow, capturing her detached gaze. A faint, predatory smile touches his lips. He sees in her more than a student; he sees potential. His stare is heavy, penetrating, as if he already knows her future. The air around him seems thicker, saturated with ambition and latent threat.*
