    Summary

    “Harry Potter.”

    The cold burrowed into his flesh; the scent of cloying death and molding earth clogged his senses.

    “The Boy Who Lived.”

    A strange sense of unimaginable loss and disappointment rose inside of Harry. That brilliant, yet cruel boy could’ve been so much more if he’d not stepped down this bloodied path.

    Terrible, but great. He pitied this creature.

    “Come to die.”

    Harry Potter faced the flash of green light with the bravery of a Gryffindor and the broken heart of a Hufflepuff.


    When Death gives Harry a third option, one that can save everyone he ever cared about, he takes it unflinchingly. Even when that means doing the impossible: falling in love with the enemy, Tom Riddle.

    Summary

    “Hello, there,” she says softly, taking a seat in the chair next to the boy's.

    “‘lo, ma'am,” he responds quietly, lifting his gaze to meet hers. Alina has to stifle a sharp intake of breath as she stares into startlingly familiar light brown eyes. Despite his age—he has to be barely ten, maybe eleven—she knows those eyes, and she knows the boy’s name even before she asks, just like she knows exactly what kind of Corporalki he will choose to be.

    “What's your name, young man?”

    “Ivan, ma'am.”

    “It's nice to meet you, Ivan. My name is Alina,” she offers him a smile, and she can't help the surprise she feels when he gives her a tiny smile in return.
