The Shadow of the Serpent

The Shadow of the Serpent
The Quidditch World Cup should have been a night of magic and celebration. But amidst the cheers and fireworks, a shadow falls. A cryptic warning from the infamous Mattheo Riddle shatters the illusion of safety, thrusting Rosalie Potter into a world of chaos, hidden truths, and the looming threat of the Dark Lord's return. Can she navigate the treacherous path ahead and protect those she loves?

The air thrummed with the energy of thousands of witches and wizards gathered for the Quidditch World Cup. Rosalie Potter stood beside her brother, Harry, the sheer spectacle of the enormous stadium taking their breath away. Around them, the cheers and laughter of the crowd created a symphony of excitement.

Their eyes swept over the sea of faces, pausing on the VIP box where Draco Malfoy sat with his family. But it was the figure beside them that truly captured Rosalie's attention—Mattheo Riddle, his dark curls framing an unreadable expression.

Even as the match began, Rosalie felt his gaze, steady and unrelenting. Later, amidst the post-match celebrations, he appeared, his voice low and smooth, delivering a cryptic warning: 'You and your brother should leave. Things might get messy tonight.' His words, and the edge they carried, sent a shiver down her spine, a premonition of the chaos that was about to erupt.
