Chapter 14 - Measured Words

Summary

A shift in routine settles quietly into place.

The morning unfolds as expected, but something lingers beneath it — in pauses, in restraint, in the space between what is said and what is left unsaid.

Not everything is spoken. Not everything needs to be.

ps finally back after months 😭 this one felt small while writing it but it matters later

Chapter 11 - Little Storms

Hermione, Harry, and Draco settle into Riddle Manor, and the Manor… reacts. Doors unlocking, lights flaring, magic syncing three tiny heirs growing up together in a way the Light could never imagine.

Their first year is chaotic, soft, dangerous, and honestly? A mess in the cutest way.

The deception arc is cooking, the Dark is getting louder, and the trio bonding has OFFICIALLY begun.

Chapter 12 - within sight

Summary

The children argue, play, and settle in ways that feel slightly different than before, and those differences don’t go unnoticed.

Nothing dramatic happens, but attention shifts, routines begin to take shape, and quiet preparations are set in motion.

ps i sat on this chapter for way too long overthinking every little thing 🫠 but i’m finally letting it go into the world

Chapter 13 - Almost Normal

Summary

The day passes quietly at Riddle Manor.

Chapter 5 — No Turning Back

Summary:

The Order moves under the cover of darkness, stealing away a future they believe they have the right to control. As secrets are buried and loyalties are tested, the cost of their decision begins to unfold.
