    Summary

    Rose Lalonde used to be a popular author, but she stopped working on her flagship series and released a couple of mediocre novels. Roxy is a runaway teenager living on the streets and pick-pocketing for sustenance. When they meet, Rose is intrigued and offers to let Roxy stay at her manor indefinitely. Roxy accepts the offer just to get off the streets, but starts falling for the moody author. She just can’t shake off the feeling Rose is just using her.

    As she becomes more familiar with both Rose and the people around her, Roxy learns things, both about herself and Rose. Not all of them are pleasant.

    Summary

    Harry Potter is unremarkable. A sub-par student, a loner and orphaned by parents few care to remember. He’s just a fifteen year old boy nobody seems to care about,and he in turn cares for nothing and nobody either.

    But Harry Potter is also a Slytherin. And Slytherins, if nothing else know how to spot an opportunity. Slytherins don’t wait for fate to confer destiny upon them, they bend fate to their whim.

    So when opportunity strikes to make his mark, to carve out his own place in the world, he takes it. The real question is if he’ll leave it scarred or renewed.
