Pairing: James Potter, Sirius Black, Remus Lupin, Peter Pettigrew, Minerva McGonagall, Lily Evans, Mary MacDonald
Warning: Fluff [I suppose?]
Summary: The boys finally land on the perfect name for their group! And itâs all thanks to their favourite Professor.
A/N: Iâm back. Finally. Happy New Year, Christmas. 2022!
âAlright, listen up.â James Potter plopped himself on a chair next to his best friend Sirius Black, as he studied with Remus Lupin. Across from them, Peter Pettigrew, Lily Evans and Mary MacDonald sat. âWe need a name!â James exclaimed.
âA name?â Peter asked curiously.
âA name for a gang.â James explained. âI mean, people just call us the Gryffindor pranksters. It isnât right.â He played with his fingers. Sirius closed his book and looked at his brother.
âOkay. What are you thinking?â Sirius questioned. Remus groaned, annoyed that his study session was being interrupted by James and Siriusâ conversation. He loved his friends. Theyâd accepted him for who he truly was but at times, they remained as stupid as the day he met them.
âMaybe The Gang?â James offered.
âAnyone have any suggestions that donât suck like that name?â Sirius looked at his other friends. Mary shrugged, sketching in her book. Lily stopped writing and looked up.
âIâm sorry, I couldnât be bothered paying attention, and as soon as James opened his mouth I lost interest.â Lily defended herself. James faked shock but Sirius just shook his head.
âFocus, Evans. Name for the most amazing group of pranksters to ever roam Hogwartsâ halls.â Sirius said. Lily smiled cheekily.
âWhy not Sirius and the three Idiots?â She responded. James stab his heart as if sheâd broken it. Remus raised an eyebrow and Peter threw his hands up. âWhat did we do?â Peter complained.
âSorry Pete.â Lily apologised. âHow about The Gang?â
âThatâs just what Prongs said!â Remus replied. âHonestly, Lil. Youâre making it awfully hard to defend your case that youâd never end up with someone like him when all you do is the say the same things.â Lily shrugged and returned her attention to her potions notes.
âOkay, what about The Pranksters? Just take away Gryffindor and youâve got yourselves a fine name.â Mary proudly said. Sirius didnât want to break her heart.
But luckily he was savedâŠ
âMr Black, Mr Potter, keep your voices down. This is a library not your common room!â Professor McGonagall whisper-yelled at them. Sirius gave her a sheepish look but James just smirked. âYou Marauders.â She groaned as she left.
âMarauders?â Peter questioned.
âMarauders comes from the word Maraud which means to go about in search of things, steal or to attack.â Remus explained patiently.
âItâs perfect!â James yelled excitedly. âThe Marauders. Thatâs what weâll go by.â
âBut we donât steal.â Sirius said.
âAnd we donât attack people.â Peter added.
âWe also donât really go in search of things.â Remus continued.
âWho cares?â James sighed. âBefore you explained the meaning of the word, Moony, no one knew what it meant.â
âI did!â Lily responded.
âBut it sounds catchy!â James argued. âCome on, boys! The Marauders. The Marauders. Marauders.â James kept going, whispering it into Sirius, Remus and Peterâs ears until they finally gave in.
âFine, fine, fine.â Remus threw his hands up. âLetâs just throw logic out of the window, why donât we?â
âIâm sure logic can fly.â James laughed.
âAnd if it canât?â Remus asked.
âIt can try.â Sirius said, bored.
âWho needs logic anyway when you have pranks, Quidditch and maps?â James smiled. âAnd an awesomely catchy name such as The Marauders.â
âThe Marauders.â All four boys whispered it.
âYou arenât going to spit in your hands and shake it now, are you?â Lily asked.
âOr cut your hands in a blood-oath?â Mary questioned.
âYouâre really messed up, Mar.â James said.
âNot as much as someone who names their group something that doesnât relate to them at all!â She whispered harshly.
âBoohoo.â James replied.
Pairing: Regulus Black x Reader
Warning: Fluff
Summary: Just some headcanonâs of Reg
A/N: Redid my account, again. I will remake the James Potter fluff headcanonâs eventually. For now Iâm focused on the love of my life, Regulus Arcturus Black. I also have some more plans for him including Dad Headcanonâs cause we missed out on Reg being a dad and Iâll be forever pissed.
Regulus would play any song on the piano that you asked for. If he didnât know it, heâd learn it.
Regulus would learn to braid your hair for you, and in return, some days he allow you to touch his hair.
Regulus wouldnât become a death eater if you asked, if he already was one, heâd run away with you.
Regulus wouldnât care about his familyâs opinions on you. Especially if you were muggle-born, half-blood or even just a muggle. If he loved you, he loved so fiercely not even his parents could break it.
Regulus would easily become friends with your friends. Quite a charmer this one is.
Regulus would plan some of the best dates. Picnics under the stars, dates to France and even walking the forbidden forest after dark.
Regulus would be super overprotective of you. If someone dare said one bad thing about you, that person would be gone within a minute.
Regulus would buy you whatever you wanted. Even if you didnât necessarily needed it, or ask for it. If he saw you staring at something, it was yours the next minute.
Regulus isnât big on public affection but behind close doors, you are his Queen. Back massages, cuddles, reading to you and making you whatever food or drink youâd like.
Regulus would be a great chef. I mean, this man is great at everything. But his food was quite literally to die for. Heâd often ask as a joke if you would choose his food over him. Youâd say you would and he didnât quite realise you werenât joking. His food was that great.
Regulus loves when you reassure him of your love. Even if you think heâs asleep, it means the world to him.
Regulus, at first, wouldnât be big into saying âI love youâ but after you say it, heâll begin to say it back. Youâd definitely say it first but he may say it when your asleep.
Regulus would be totally soft for you. The only person who could make him laugh, cry, smile, fall off a chair, whatever it is, only you can make him do it.
Regulus would jump in front of a train for you. Heâd do anything to protect you. Your safety is his top priority.
Regulus finds your happiness is the most important thing in the world. Heâd buy you a whole damn cart of kittens if you asked. Thereâs not a thing he wouldnât get for you or do for you if it made you happy.
Regulus would ask you to cut his hair because heâd only ever trust you.
Regulus would take your name if you two got married. Because he wants to end the Black name just as much as Sirius. If you have children, theyâd take your name.
Regulus would definitely buy you a holiday house somewhere like Paris or Orleans. Somewhere in France where you two could spend days doing nothing.
Regulus would definitely build your dream house for you after graduation. He wouldnât even offer to live in it. Heâd build it for you and if you asked, heâd move in.
Regulus would be so happy when you two graduate. Heâd kiss you all over and smile proudly. This man would be super encouraging for everything. Graduation, your first job, getting a house. Whatever it was, heâs your biggest fan.
Regulus would definitely cry to you in the night about all his problems and how much stress heâs under by his parents. You would bake him warm chocolate-chip cookies and give him tea, coffee or hot cocoa. Heâd love you a million for it.
Regulus would comfort you from nightmares and youâd do the same for him. You two would definitely make a deal to be completely honest with each other. No matter what.
Regulus would sneak you into his house whenever his parents were asleep or into the dormitories, so you two could cuddle and kiss. Heâd also sneak over to you.
Regulus would spend hours reading with you. Studying, sleeping, playing the piano and even pranking people.
Regulus would sneak into different classes to spend more time with you. Heâd skip school if you asked.
Regulus absolutely loves holidays such as Halloween or Christmas. Youâd have so much fun decorating and making cookies together. Matching Halloween costumes, and youâd always win the competitions for them.
Regulus would love sleeping on your chest so he could hear your heartbeat and remind himself youâre alive. Youâre here. Youâre real.
Regulus would spend hours talking about stars and astronomy. Youâd patiently listen because it was rare to see him so excited over something.
Regulus would call you all sorts of nicknames. Darling, love, sweetheart, princess, bubs. You would call him things like babe, baby, reg, reggie, my starboy and have cute joking names like heir of slytherin, prince of darkness, his royal highness.
Regulus would only dance with you.
â” Regulus Black x reader
â” summary: The Marauders hold a silent grudge against you for falling in love with the younger Black, until one day everything comes out in an argument, and Sirius has no choice but to find his brother, and see for himself how much he loves you.
â” word count: 2k
â” tw: swearing, arguing, panic/ anxiety, slut shaming
â” a/n: lowkey kinda proud of this? pulled this idea outta my ass while zoning out at work and had to write it as soon as I got home lol. anyway, im on a real writing kick right now I have so many ideassss! happy reading xo MIZ
You never spoke of your relationship to your friends.
They never asked questions when you would leave, saying you had plans, they didnât approach you when theyâd spot you hand in hand in the halls, a bright smile beaming on your face.
But you saw the resentment.
You saw Sirius grit his teeth anytime his name would accidentally slip past your lips.
You saw Remusâ eyes fall when he saw you with him in the courtyard.
You saw Jamesâ fake smile when youâd show him your new jewelry and dresses that he knew you didnât buy for yourself.
You heard the girlsâ disapproving whispers when youâd leave your dorm to meet him.
It broke your heart every time. You wished to be able to talk freely about your love without feeling guilty, you wanted to bring him to your weekly game nights, you wanted to go to Hogsmeade during Christmas with everybody and get butterbeers and giggle as snowflakes clung onto all your eyelashes. You wanted to share that community with him.
But you loved Regulus more than any of those things.

regulus black x fem!reader
warnings: smut
âIf you bore holes in them I won't be able to finish my essay, Y/nâÂ
His voice brings you back from the apparent state of trance you had unconsciously fallen into. Blinking rapidly, you regain perception of the walls of your dorm room surrounding you and the myriad of books scattered across your bed. You shift your gaze to his gray eyes and you find them already set on you.
âPardon ?â your voice has a confused edge that almost makes him chuckle.
âMy handsâ he explains, his tone as neutral as ever âYou were staringâ
Your eyes go a little wide, like you had been caught stealing the last chocolate frog of the stash. You swallow, trying to compose yourself as best as you can.
âI was doing no such thingâ you declare, a bit too solemn and defensive to be the truth.
Regulus pins you with an unimpressed look, his left brow arching just enough to tell you that he isn't buying any of your bullshit.
A defeated sigh leaves your lips.Â
It is no use hiding something from Regulus Black. He will find out one way or another, and you got caught right with your hands in the jar.
âOk, fineâ you admit, lifting your shoulders to make it seem like the most casual thing ever âI was looking at your handsâ
Regulusâ expression doesn't change, but the glint of amusement flashing in his eyes doesn't go unnoticed.
âMore like ogling, I would sayâ even his tone has a playful bite to it.
You like this side of him. The Regulus who is able to relax a bit and let go when he is surrounded by the people he is comfortable with.
But carefree Regulus also means menace Regulus apparently.
âI wasn't oglingâ you grumble, rolling your eyes âI was just admiring themâÂ
His eyebrows furrow.
âWhy ?â he seems intrigued as the question leaves his lips.
Why, he has the courage to ask.
Well the answer is that Regulus Black has the prettiest, hottest, most gorgeous hands you have ever laid eyes on.
They are elegant, slender, the little veins underneath the pale skin gracing your eyes with their presence with every movement he makes, every flex of his muscles, producing a delicious design that hypnotizes you.Â
They are smooth but decorated by light calluses, undoubtedly caused by Quidditch, that create a divine contrast with his otherwise untainted skin.
His fingers are long, lean, clad in silver rings that make your mouth water with how exquisitely sultry they make him look.
And suddenly, but not surprisingly, you find yourself imagining what it would feel like to have those hands on you, exploring every inch of your body, dancing on your skin like flames dance in the cold hair of the night. The cool metal of his rings being at odds with your scorching hot skin, making you hiss as his skilled fingers create a burning path over your body, traveling everywhere. Your legs, your thighs, your hips, chest, shoulders and stopping right at your neck, wrapping delicately, reverentially around it. Worshipping the sensitive skin, feeling the erratic pulse of your heart and-
âYouâre doing it againâ his words interrupt your spiraling for the second time that day, sounding dry and apathetic as always, but a hint of teasing twinkles in the otherwise coldness of his eyes.
âYou have nice hands, thatâs allâ you manage to say without giving away all the less than pure thoughts flooding your mind in that moment. âFrom an artist point of view, obviouslyâ you add, shrugging, trying to make everything less than obvious.
You really hope Regulus didn't learn to cast a Legilimes in his free time, otherwise you were well and truly screwed.
Bringing up your passion for drawing is futile and you know it. You know he knows the drooling over his hands isn't for the sake of art. You can't fool Regulus Black, not even if you try to.
Which is both extremely annoying and criminally hot in your humble opinion.
But pretending is the only thing you can do to not feel embarrassed, holding onto the hope that maybe he doesnât have you all figured out.
âSo youâre saying that your interest is purely artistic ?â he cocks a brow as his head tilts slightly.
Thereâs something in his voice, in his eyes, that you canât quite figure.
Your forehead scrunches in confusion.
âYes, of courseâ you answer, trying to hide the stutter of your voice as best you can.
You are pretty sure he knows that you arenât telling the truth, he somehow always knows. He reads you like an open book, and, for someone who doesnât engage in showing his emotions too often, he is pretty damn good at reading the ones of others.Â
So why that question ? You almost expected him to tell you to cut it out and get back to study because that essay isnât gonna finish itself.
This is new, unexpected.Â
Interesting.
âWould you like to draw them ?â
Your eyes go wide in surprise.
Wait.
What ?
Never, in all the years you have known each other, had he offered to model for you.Â
He knew about you having an interest in arts, he even saw a couple of your drawings and paintings and he often asked about them and how they were coming up, but he never asked to be in them.
You never brought up the suggestion either. He is a reserved guy and he loathes having eyes on him, so you figured he wouldâve never accepted even if you did.
That never stopped you from sketching him from afar, though. Those gorgeous features deserve to be portrayed.
But why the sudden proposition ?
You arenât stupid. Regulus might know you like the back of his hand, but you could say the same about him. And this, whatever this might be, is not like him at all.Â
Regulus never does anything for nothing, there is always an explanation, a reason to his every move. You think even his breaths are perfectly calculated.
But this time the why gets lost on you, and the harder you try to understand the less it all makes sense.
âI can see the gears in your brain twinsting and turning,â he says, calm and composed as ever.
He is sitting on your bed, the quill he was using to write his Charms paper now abandoned next to him. His back is perfectly straight, leaning on the headbord to support his weight. The raven strands of his hair create soft waves that frame his face in a delicate and enchanting way. His lips are stretched in a rare, playful smile, curling up slightly on the left side.
He is beautiful. Dangerously so.
âItâs just-â you are confused, there is no doubt about that, but most of all you are intrigued âYou have never asked me beforeâ
âI knowâÂ
Thatâs his only answer. Simple, concise. Enigmatic.Â
Just like him.
âSo why now ?âÂ
The question escapes your lips before you can stop it. You canât help it, curiosity is consuming you, and the possibility of learning a new part of him makes your skin tingle with excitement.
âWhy not ?â he shrugs âThere is a first time for everything, right ? So why not now ?â
There is still that glint of something in his eyes. You donât know what it is, you donât think you would be able to give it a name even if you knew, but it's there, and itâs strong.
âIâll get my supplies thenâÂ
You slowly get up from the bed, feeling your heart in your throat in a mix of anticipation and nervousness, and you retrieve your album and a pencil.
When you sit back down you notice that the books have been neatly stacked in a small pile next to your bed and all the papers, previously scattered all over your sheets, are nowhere to be seen.
âFigured we might need the spaceâ he says, like he read your mind.
âThank youâ, you give him a small smile before opening your album, turning the pages one by one, until you find a blank sheet, ready to be filled.
âWhere do you need me ?âÂ
The way he utters those words with the utmost nonchalance, apparently unaware of the effect they have on you, nearly sends you into cardiac arrest.
Everywhere, you think, before mentally smacking yourself.
You need to get a grip, for Merlinâs sake.
âRight there is fine,â you're able to say without your voice faltering âjust angle your hands towards me, so the light is rightâ
He does as he is told, adjusting his position and moving his hands a bit to the right, veins in full display and rings shining under the warm rays of the sunset seeping through the window.
âThatâs goodâ your mouth is suddenly dry as you gulp at that sight.
He is a bit far, and the light doesnât hit as perfectly as you had expected, but youâll work with it. If squinting your eyes a bit is the price to maintain your mental sanity then so be it.
Then you start drawing. The only sound filling the room is the gentle scraping of your pencil as your eyes focus on the white sheet in front of you, your gaze shifting to his hands ever so often to take a peek at them, like you haven't learnt every detail by heart.
You can feel his eyes on you. You try not to focus on it, but the shivers those pools of the color of a summer storm send down your spine are difficult to ignore.
âYouâre straining your eyesâ he blurts out of the blue. And itâs not a question.
Observant as always.
âItâs fine,â you assure him, your gaze never leaving the paper âthis distance is good for perspectiveâÂ
âBut itâs a problem for the lightingâ
Those words make you lift your head up, your brows knotted in a frown.
How does he-
âAnd what would you know about the lighting ?â you eye him suspiciously, a small grin curving your lips.
âI guess all your rambles about that muggle painter werenât in vainâ he says, and thereâs a cheekiness in his tone that is completely new to you âCaravaggio, right ?â
Your grin turns into a full smile.
âRight,â you nod, your eyes widening a little âI canât believe you actually rememberâ
âI remember a lot of things,â he remarks defensively.
âOnly those important enough to youâ the teasing in your voice is light, playful, as your pencil glides on the sheet swiftly, adding strokes and shadows here and there.
Thereâs a beat of silence.
One second. Two. Three. And then-
âExactlyâ
Your hand halts every movement, freezing completely. You look up from your paper and you find his gaze already on you.
Suddenly you are lost. Your heart is beating so fast you wouldnât be surprised if he was actually able to hear it.
The implications of that single word swirl in your brain, creating a hurracane of thoughts that almost gives you whiplash.Â
He doesnât give you the time to even think properly about what he may have just suggested, because he decides to speak again.Â
âI can come closer if you need me toâ his voice is lower, deeper, oozing with that same something heâs had in his eyes since he caught you staring at his heavenly hands.
You want to scream. You have no idea of what the hell is going on and itâs confusing the shit out of you.
You know he is asking for that forsaken drawing you still have in your lap, but it somehow doesnât feel like it. The electricity in the room is so high it feels like an open cable sending sparks flying everywhere, setting the air on fire.Â
The only coherent thought in your brain is a chorus of yes, please and nothing else.
So you cave.
âYou can,â you manage to say, because the necessity to protect your sanity might be strong, but the need to have him close to you is apparently stronger âif you want toâ
His gaze is so penetrating you feel it in your soul, consuming you from the inside out and setting your whole body ablaze.
Itâs compelling, hypnotizing even.Â
âThis is not about what I want, Y/nâ
Oh, the way those words leave his perfect lips, making shudders erupt all over your body should be studied.Â
Your world shifts on its axes and it starts spinning ten times faster. Because he knows.Â
He knows.Â
âWe're not talking about art anymore, are we ?â you ask, swallowing soundly as your breath gets stuck in your throat.
âWere we ever talking about that in the first place ?â his question is rhetorical. He doesnât need an answer because he already knows it. He figured you out, like he always does.
So what was the point in pretending anymore ?
âNo,â you admit âI guess we weren'tâ your trambling hands move the paper out of the way.
There is a spark in his eyes. Itâs foreign, thrilling even, and it makes your skin prickle in the best way.
Suddenly he moves. He shifts his weight forward, approaching you slowly. The veins in his arms and hands bulging from the pressure and knocking the air out of your lungs in the process.
âSo tell meâ he whispers, crawling to you bit by bit, like a hunter advancing towards his prey. He seems to be calm, poised, totally in control of his body as he comes closer and closer.
Itâs his eyes that betray him.Â
They have always been the window to his feelings, talking more than his mouth even did. And right now they are burning, engulfed by a heat that makes your legs weak and your heart roar. The realization hits you, a rush of adrenaline running through your veins.
They are hungry.
âTell you what ?â you stutter, unable to regain a hold of yourself. You canât breathe, your palms are sweaty, you feel hot all over and he is close, so damn close.
He stops right in front of you, mere inches between your faces and a tension so heavy you can cut it with a butter knife.
âWhat you wantâ the warmth of his breath delicately caresses your skin. Your tongue darts out to wet your lips, his eyes following the movement intently almost making you squirm under his gaze.
âYou seem to know what I wantâ you murmur breathlessly, your body heating up in response to his proximity.Â
Those hands, protagonists of some of the filthiest dreams youâve ever had, are right next to you. Close enough to graze the skin of your thighs with his knuckles, but never indulging in the act. Like he is teasing you, waiting for you to beg for it. You shift your gaze to them and you swallow hard, the need to feel them on you growing stronger every second that passes.Â
You are about to fucking combust.
His silver eyes are still fixed on you, intense and magnetic, as they follow your line of sight.
âI won't move a muscle unless you tell me to, Y/nâÂ
Those words, mouthed so close to your lips and mixed with the low, velvet-like husk of his voice, make your legs clench and your stomach churn in the best way possible.
You canât take it anymore.
You move forward, abandoning your position on the bed to place your legs on each side of his hips, almost straddling him. Your hands are on his shoulders, helping you to keep your balance, feeling the lean muscles underneath the shirt as you hover over him.
His head tilts up, eyes sharp and hot and glued to yours. You hear him suppress a hiss as your thighs brush his hips. His arms are still next to him, hands gripping the sheets so hard his knuckles turn white.
He is restraining himself. From touching you.Â
Your thoughts are clouded, your mind hazy and completely out of it. The only thing you want right now is for him to place those perfect fucking hands on you and never stop.
âDo itâ your voice is so weak and breathy itâs a miracle he hears you.
âDo what ?â he mouths, so close to your lips it makes your head spin.
Youâre needy, desperate even, but you donât care. You donât have time to think right now. You want to feel.
âTouch meâ you beg.
âWhere ?â he sounds just as gone as you are, and you finally crumble.
âEverywhereâ
Itâs nothing more than a whisper but it shakes the both of you like an earthquake.Â
You meet in the middle, your lips colliding and completely knocking the breath out of you.
His mouth is sinful, greedy, chasing yours with a hunger that almost makes you melt on the spot. You get lost in the softness of it, in the ungodly brush of your tongues making you moan breathlessly. You bite and nibble and lick and he follows you, matching the languid pace just as eagerly, as your hands tangle in his hair, pulling at the black strands delicately. The low groan that escapes his throat sends goosebumps all over you.
You are so focused on the filthy dance of your mouths that you almost miss the agonizingly slow graze of his fingers on the exposed flesh of your legs, gently tracing a path on your thighs.
The metal of his rings meets the hotness of your skin and you hiss.
Oh, itâs just as delicious as you imagined.
âAh- fuckâ you pant, millimeters away from him. Your head feels light, dizzy.Â
You feel like youâre dreaming, lost in your own fantasies.
But his hands running up and down your thighs feel too fucking good to be just a product of your imagination. They travel slowly, excruciatingly so, making you lose your mind with every new inch of skin they explore.Â
Until they sneak under your skirt, reaching your hips to gently knead the supple skin, applying enough force to bring you forward.
âSitâ It feels more like a plea than an order but-
Holy shit.
A gasp escapes your mouth before you can stop it.
Every cell of your body threatens to explode as he pushes your weight on him all the way, making you straddlle him completely.
âFucking finallyâ he curses, more to himself than to you, like he has been waiting for this moment his whole life.
His eyes are dark, fogged up by lust and need, and it's the lewdest thing you have ever witnessed.
âI have never seen you like thisâ you whisper directly on his lips, nibbling on the plush flesh.
He smirks, smirks for Salazar's sake, as his fingers move, reprising their mission to make you lose every ounce of control.
âIt seems you were busy looking at something elseâ
His thumbs rub the skin of your inner thigh in a hypnotizing manner, sending bolts of electricity down your spine.
You whimper as they get closer and closer to your core, your grip on the junction between his neck and shoulder tightening in pleasure.
But he must take it as some sort of sign of discomfort because he halts suddenly.
âWant me to stop ?â his eyes search for yours, the veiled concern in them making your heart stutter.
âDonât you even dareâ you say, a mere breath away from him before you dive in, capturing his mouth again.
It's messy and dirty and you get addicted to his taste way too quickly.
His hands move up, massaging your skin at every caress of your tongues, until they reach the hem of your panties.
He moves away from your lips for a quick moment, and he looks at you.
The silent âCan I ?â written in his eyes almost makes you swoon.
You nod your head.
âI need words, chĂ©rieâ he whispers sensually.
The combination of his right hand so close to your most sensitive spot, his left one traveling up to your hip, holding it tightly, posessivly, and that fucking pet name almost make you cum on the spot.
âYesâ you practically beg.
Only then he resprises his journey of exquisit torture along your body.
âShit-â you quiver as he kisses your neck, branding the sensitive skin with his lips and teeth. His hands move, fingers skilled and sinful as they reach your heat.
You mewl as they make contact with the light material of your underwear.
âJesus Christâ hs hisses a groan âyouâre soakedâ
A series of choked out whimpers leaves your lips as he strokes his fingers over your panties, feeling your wetness through the fabric.
âFuck- Regâ a moan ripples from your lips when his thumb brushes your clit tentativley, making you gasp. Your hands fly to his hair, lightly pulling the soft strands with trembling fingers.
âLook at you, all horny and needy over my handsâ his voice is tantalizing but you can hear the breathlessness, the strain in it. He is affected by this just as much as you are and it makes you go almost feral.
âPleaseâ you breathe. You donât even know what youâre begging for. Your mind is too hazy, too fogged up by lust and need to have a single coherent thought in it.
But he sure does know, because his digits move your panties to the side, just enough to glide over your slickness, making contact with the tender skin of your folds and spreading your wetness all over.
Finally, finally the hands consuming your every thought are on you, right where you had craved and imagined them the most.
You arch your back in ecstasy, biting your lip.
And itâs when his middle finger eases inside of you, slowly breaching your velvety walls, that you lose it completely.
The air gets knocked out of your lungs, liquid fire engulfs every cell of your body, every nerve and muscle consumed by pleasure.
âRegulus-â itâs the only thing you manage to mewl as he slides in and out of you in a rhythm so sensual and sultry it makes you melt. The cold metal of his ring meets the warm, sensitive skin of your cunt with every prod, creating a delicious contrast.
You never break eye contact, your gazes locked together drinking in every little detail, every wave of bliss swimming in them.
âIs this what you fantasized about, love ?â he pants right on your lips âAll the times I caught you staring, is this what you were imagining my hands doing ? Fucking you senseless, feeling how tight and needy you are ?â
His words are as dirty as his eyes as he slides another finger into you, making you inhale sharply and stretching you out so good you could almost cry.Â
âOhmygodyesâ you moan as your hips start moving to their own accord, meeting the prodding of his fingers eagerly, riding his hand like itâs the last thing youâll ever do.
âBut this is not the only fantasy you have, right chĂ©rie ?â he teases, going faster, harder, pumping mercilessly and leaving you a blubbering mess.
His left hand leaves its place on your hip and moves up, grazing the soft skin of your stomach, the supple and tender flesh of your breasts, the natural dip of your collarbones, worshipping every inch of your skin in their path, until they reach their goal.
âI bet you thought about this too, didn't you ?âÂ
You were always sure this would remain just one of your daydreams, the kind of dirty thought that should remain in your mind and nowhere else. But Regulus Black was Regulus Black and reading you was one of his favorite hobbies.
It still comes as a surprise, though, when he delicately wraps his hand around your throat, resting it there, feeling every pulse of your heart, every pump of your blood and adorning your neck with the prettiest fucking necklace you could ever ask for.
âYesâ itâs nothing more than a breath, but it sends him into a frenzy. His right thumb rubs your clit relentlessly, adding to the unforgiving pace of his fingers sliding in and out of you with lewd, wet squelches. The whimpers coming out of your mouth are raw, filthy and downright pornographic as you feel your orgasm approaching.
Your head is in the clouds, a hundred thousands miles from earth as the only thing you can focus on is the feeling of his hands on you, fucking you to your release as the one on your neck squeezes the faintest bit, enough to almost send you over the edge.
His left thumb leaves its place right above your jugular, moving upwards to caress your jawline, your cheek and, lastly, your lips.
You can feel the digit caressing the red, bitten flesh, brushing it with reverence, worshiping it with his whole being. His heated gaze is bewitched, entranced by your mouth parting, welcoming him past your lips, and lightly grazing the pad with your teeth, before enveloping it wholly, letting him feed you the taste of his finger.
âBloody fucking hell, Y/nâ he rasps, voice low and dangerously close to pleading as you suck on his thumb like it's the tastiest treat you have ever put in your mouth.
The hand on your cunt speeds its pace, pounding in and out of you like a fucking machine, the vibrations on your little bundle of nerves getting more intense by the second, sending you over the edge in a mess of moans and whimpers.
âReg, fuck, I'm-â
You reach your release with his name on your lips, back arched and hips rolling to help you ride your orgasm on those unholy fingers of his.Â
Your vision is blurred, your brain fuzzy and overwhelmed by bliss as you slowly come back to your senses.
It takes you a few seconds to regain control of your body and mind, but when you do you are graced with a vision you are sure you will never forget.
The ever composed and collected Regulus Black is right in front of you with his expression contorted in pure lust, eyes bleary and unfocused, hair tousled by your hands relentlessly stroking them, lips red and glossy from the heated kisses, tie loose, crooked and shirt crumpled.
He is a mess.
The hottest mess you have ever seen.
You're still not fully out of your head space when he speaks again.
âYou're loudâ he grins, his tone teasing but still a little raspy.
âYou're filthyâ you bite back weakly, your voice hoarse and strained.Â
âMaybe. But I donât think I'm the only oneâÂ
The fingers that have been inside of you not even a moment ago are now in front of you, coated and glistening with your essence.
He slowly brings them closer to your mouth, and you don't even think twice before eagerly welcoming them inside it.
The taste of yourself mixes with the metallic tinge of his rings as you suck leisurely, restraining a moan before he takes them out with a wet pop.
âSale filleâ he groans in french, lowly and right on your parted lips, before he dives in an alluring kiss. (Dirty girl)
It's slower than all the others you shared, but it's deeper, sensual and it almost gets you worked up all over again.
His tongue meets yours in a erotic dance and when the taste of your very essence coats his tastebuds a moan rumbles in his throat.
âYou're sweetâ his voice is nothing more than a whisper as his teeth nibble at your lower lip gently.
âWant me to find out if you're sweet, too ?â You offer with a teasing smile on your lips . His hands might be your biggest fantasy, but they sure as hell are not the only part of him you fantasize about.
âEager, are we ?â he teases playfully, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear âNot today, chĂ©rieâ
The little pet name creates butterflies in your stomach and makes your cheeks warm, but doesn't hide your disappointment.Â
âWhy ?â you ask, your hands going to fiddle with his tie.
âAs I told you, this is not about what I wantâ he explains, his arms circling you in a loose hug âand I don't know if you noticed, but it's pretty lateâ
You furrow your eyebrows in confusion, and only then you realize that the sun has already set and the room would be totally surrounded by darkness if it wasn't for the few magic candles lighting up automatically when twilight hits.
Your eyes widen.
âHow long have we been here for ?â your voice has a panicked hint to it, making Regulus laugh.
âI'm pretty sure dinner is getting served right nowâ he says nonchalantly, like it's the most normal thing ever to engage in sexual activities with your best friend and miss supper because of it.
âWhich might be for the best,â he adds.
âWhy ?â you ask in genuine confusion.
âBecause Iâm the only one lucky enough to hear your dirty little soundsâ he says with a shit-eating grin before kissing you again.

You tapped on the wooden door lightly, your tummy growing tight with nervousness as you made sure not to be too loud. You hadnât seen Regulus in 3 days and you were growing needy. Regulus opened the door swiftly and furrowed his eyebrows into a frown when he saw you standing there.
âWhat are you doing here, Y/N?â He huffed, pulling you into his dorm by the forearm and closing the door quickly. âNo one saw you come in, right?â
You shook your head no. Regulus was pretty stubborn about your agreement: no one can know that you guys are hooking up and only he can decide when you were to see each other.
âWell what is it?â Regulus asked as if you were dumb, sitting on the edge of his bed with his legs spread, resting on his hands behind him.
âI-I was just wondering if-â You began but he quickly cut you off.
âDon't act dumb, kitten.â He said as if he was amused. Your cheeks heated as you stood in front of him.
âIt's been 3 days.â You finally said clearly, hinting at what you wanted.
âUse your words, Y/N.â Regulus held out his hand and you walked forward towards him. You took his hand and he guided you onto his lap.
âI need you.â You mumbled. You sat sideways on his lap as his hand rested on your thigh, his cold rings sending goosebumps down your bare skin.
âMerlin, you are so fucking needy.â He scoffed. âYou think you can just walk in here and get my cock whenever you like?â
You could tell your cheeks were bright pink as you avoided eye contact.
âAnswer me, kitten.â He grabbed your jaw harshly and turned your face to look at him. You shook your head no but he simply raised his eyebrows at you.
Before you had a second to think, he had lifted you and thrown you backwards onto the bed. Your breath hitched in the back of your throat as you watched Regulus pull his black shirt over his head before crawling on top of you.
âSuch a little slut for my cock, huh?â He grumbled in your ear before kissing your neck harshly. You nodded your head desperately as the throbbing grew in your lower abdomen. âWandering to my room in the middle of the night because youâre so desperate for a quick fuck, huh kitten?â
Regulusâ hand gripped on to your underwear and pulled it down your legs before pushing your skirt up your waist.
âAlready so wet for me too.â He hummed. âWhat made you so wet?â
âYou, Regulus.â You moaned out, desperate for his touch.
His thumb came into contact with your clit, circling it lightly causing your legs to shake slightly. You let out a cry of pleasure as he knew all the right spots.
âQuiet, kitten.â He mumbled and you obeyed. Your breath was heavy as you tried to stop the moans from surpassing your lips.
Regulus took his fingers away from you before quickly unbuttoning his pants and pulling them down, not bothering to take them off completely.
You felt his hard cock brush against your entrance and you let out another cry of pleasure.
âWhat did I fucking tell you?â Regulus huffed. He grabbed you by the throat, his hair falling on to your forehead as he got close to you. âStay fucking quiet.â
You nodded your head with wide eyes as he returned to his position between your legs. He pushed himself in you and you couldn't help but let out a low moan as the tension that had been building the past few days released itself.
He didnât wait long before pounding himself into you, his soft moans and breaths pouring out into your ear.
You were trying so hard to stay quiet but your mind was growing fuzzy and you couldnât help but focus on the way his cock hit all the right spots inside of you, the way his pubic bone hit against your clit every time he pounded against you and the way the veins in his neck tensed.
Moans spilled from your mouth as you could feel yourself reaching your high but Regulus only grew more frustrated.
âShut your fucking mouth, no need for everyone to hear what a fucking cockslut you are for me.â He huffed, bringing up one of his hands and putting his pointer and middle finger in your mouth causing you to gag.
Everytime you stifled a moan he would push his fingers down further, causing tears to brim at your eyes as you continued to choke.
âAw, can you not handle it, baby?â Regulus mocked you as he fucked you harder, only causing you to cry out louder. You could tell he was close as his thrusts grew sloppier.
He pulled his fingers from your mouth, needing his hand to steady himself to continue his pace.
You couldnât hold it in any longer, you were a moaning mess as you were so close to your high.
âShit.â He mumbled to himself. Regulus continued to pound into you but brought his lips up to yours as a last resort, shoving his tongue down your throat and kissing you passionately to hide the noise.
Your hands reached up to his dark brown curls and your fingertips got tangled in the mess. You knew he hated any form of affection but you were past the point of caring.
You could tell how frustrated he was getting at this, breathing heavily down his nose and thrusting harder into you out of frustration. He separated your lips and instead brought his hand up to your mouth, covering your lips with his palm. You didnât care anymore as you felt yourself reach your high, moans vibrating against his palm as your walls tightened around him. Your legs were shaking as he followed your high, groaning as he came inside you.
His body fell next to yours lazily as he pushed his hair out of his face.
You both caught your breath next to one another as you turned to face him. You knew you were in trouble, but it was worth it.

The first symptom reared its ugly head early Monday morning.Â
You were in the Great Hall eating breakfast with James, Remus, Sirius, and Peter when your skin suddenly felt like you were being engulfed by fiendfyre. The burning heat spread through your entire body, making you feel flushed and flustered. Your fork clattered against the table while you wiped the sweat off of your brow with clammy hands.Â
âAre you feeling alright, love?â asked Sirius.Â
You shook your head, fanning yourself. âDoes anyone else feel hot all of a sudden? It feels like Iâm getting burned alive.â
The boys shook their heads. Remus laid the back of his hand against your forehead. âYouâre burning up, Y/N. I think you might be pitching a fever.âÂ
James pushed his glasses further up the bridge of his nose and squinted. âMoonyâs right. Youâre sweating profusely and you look a bit peaked.âÂ
Peter nodded in agreement. âIt might be that new dragon flu thatâs going around. Maybe you should head back to the dorms, Y/N.âÂ
âI canât miss class. Thereâs an assignment due in Transfiguration.âÂ
Just then, a violent cramp seized your lower abdomen. You gripped the edge of the dining table so hard that you felt the wood splinter underneath your palm. Padfootâs eyes widened at the appearance of your claws. It had only been a month since Sirius helped you summon your Animagus form and while you still had much to learn, youâve never lost control like this before.Â
You needed to get out of there. Transforming into a giant snow leopard in the middle of the Great Hall would be very, very bad.Â
âDonât worry about McGonagall,â Sirius said in a stern voice. âWeâll cover for you. Now come on, Iâll walk you back to your room.âÂ
Fortunately, you managed to reach Gryffindor tower with no other incidents. After Sirius escorted you back to your dorm, he barred the door with magic and promised to check up on you after class.Â
The cramps only worsened. It felt like someone had buried a dagger into your stomach and was now twisting and turning it as they pleased. You doubled over in pain and clutched the poster of your canopy bed before curling up into a ball in the middle of your mattress. Not even your period cramps compared to this torment.Â
When you thought it couldnât get any worse, an overwhelming ache blossomed between your thighs and made you groan with need. You twisted in your sheets and pressed your legs together to counteract the wave of lust coursing through your veins, but it only made it worse. You felt empty and hollow and the overwhelming desire to be filled was the only thing you could think about.
This was different from the surge of adolescent hormones that you had grown so familiar with. The desire was a living thing, sinking its claws into your very being. You felt feral, animalistic.Â
You burrowed into your pillows, your breaths growing ragged as you tried to regain control. A demanding knock against your door broke your concentration. You sniffed the air, whining softly as the intoxicating scent of eucalyptus, bergamot, and sandalwood overpowered your heightened senses. A part of you recalled the warning Sirius left you with. You were not, under any circumstances, supposed to open the door unless it was him or one of the boys on the other side, but the temptation was too strong.Â
As the knocks grew more insistent, the scent shifted into something sharper. You felt yourself drawn to it and before long, you were opening the door to satiate your curiosity. The person standing on the other side made your stomach lurch.Â
âRegulus,â you said through gritted teeth. The very presence of the younger Black brother made your entire body shake as you contended against the urge to transform. It was a losing battle. You could feel your canines elongating, making your gums feel sore and achy. âNow is not a good time.âÂ
In fact, it was the worst bloody fucking time. On a normal day, you could barely tolerate Regulus. His surly attitude and cutting glare certainly left little to be desired. Then there was the matter of his falling out with Sirius, which only served to heighten the tension between you. When Professor McGonagall chose to make you partners, you at least attempted to keep things civil. Whatever was going on between your best friend and his younger brother was none of your business, but Regulus had practically made it impossible to stay impartial.Â
You had never met a broodier, haughtier, snootier arsehole than Regulus Arcturus Black. The pureblood prick acted like he was a prince amongst peasants just because he happened to be born into the right bloodline. Yet a muggleborn like yourself had managed to take the top spot in every class. A spot that previously belonged to him.Â
To be expected, Regulus wasnât the least bit pleased about this. He was even less thrilled when McGonagall tasked him to drop off the latest lecture notes so that you wouldnât fall behind in class. If she hadnât threatened to deduct points from his house for refusing, Regulus wouldâve never set foot in the godforsaken lionâs den.
He pushed his way inside, not bothering to wait for a proper invitation. âHere are the notes from class,â Regulus stated stiffly. âWeâre required to transform a thimble into a thestral. I suggest you read up. Iâll not have you dragging me down just because you fancied playing hooky for the day.âÂ
âIâm not skipping for the bloody hell of it,â you snapped. âIf I had a choice, I would be in class not doubled over in painââÂ
Regulus caught you just before you hit the ground. The dizzy spell had come out of nowhere, nearly knocking you to the floor from the sheer force of its effects. As Regulus snaked his arm around your waist, you almost wished it had. His scent hit you all at once. You whimpered as he tucked you against his side, feeling the heat of his touch even under all your layers of clothing.Â
The ringing in your ears subsided enough for you to hear the panic in Regulusâ voice. âY/N, can you hear me? Are you alright?âÂ
You pushed him off with what little strength remained in your body. âThank you for the notes, but Iâd appreciate it if you left.â
âNo,â Regulus said.Â
âWhat do you mean, no?
âI mean, no. Do you want to hear it in French? Non.âÂ
You frowned, clutching your stomach. The cramps were starting again, but it was different this time. The ache in your lower abdomen was excruciating and your current proximity to Regulus only seemed to make it worse. The slickness between your thighs certainly didnât help the matter. It was humiliating, plain and simple.Â
âGet the fuck out, Regulus!âÂ
Regulus caught your wrist. His fingers felt like ice against your overheated skin. âYou donât want that, darling. Not when Iâm the only person who can help.â
âYou know whatâs wrong with me?âÂ
He sighed. âOf course my brother would convince you to turn without thinking about the side effects. Classic Sirius, honestly.â You glared at him to get on with it. âYouâre in heat, Y/N.âÂ
You grimaced. There was no way in Godricâs green earth. âLikeâŠa cat?âÂ
Regulus smirked. âIs that what you transform into, little kitten?â You pursed your lips, which caused him to roll his eyes. âPlease, I know your merry band of misfits have all conjured an animagus form. Thereâs no use hiding it. So what are you? A fuzzy little Persian cat?âÂ
âNo,â you said rather haughtily. Did he have to be so irritating? âMy form is a snow leopard.âÂ
âStill a kitten,â he responded with a shit eating grin. âThe same rules apply. Youâll be in heat for at least a week, mon chaton.âÂ
âYou mean I have to suffer for seven whole days? This is hell. It feels like my uterus is being ripped apart. How am I supposed to endure this pain for an entire week?â
âWell, there are ways to find relief.âÂ
âWhat kind of ways?âÂ
Regulus gave you a knowing look. âYouâre a smart girl. Iâm sure you can figure it out. Whatâs the purpose of heat?âÂ
âReproduction,â you answered almost instantly. The realization left your mouth before your brain could even process it. Oh, you have got to be kidding. This was some sort of cruel joke. For Merlinâs fucking sake! This was horrifying. Downright humiliating. âYou canât possibly meanâŠâÂ
The grin on the stupid twatâs face was growing wider by the second. âYou donât necessarily have to have sex,â he said in an amused tone. âAn orgasm will do. Iâm sure you can manage that with your fingers, canât you princess?â
You swallowed thickly. âIâIâve neverââÂ
Was it possible to die from embarrassment? Discussing the details of your sex life wouldâve been humiliating under any circumstance, but this? Standing here, telling Regulus fucking Black what you were about to tell him, this was truly rock bottom.
âDonât tell me youâre a virgin.âÂ
âNo!â you snapped. Youâve had your fair share of experience in that department, no matter how awkward they mightâve been. âIâve had sex, I just havenâtâŠâ
âYouâve never had an orgasm?â Regulus said, entirely perplexed. âNot even once?âÂ
You crossed your arms defensively, which turned out to be a big mistake. On top of everything else that you were already suffering through, your breasts now felt sore and sensitive.Â
âNo,â you conceded with a sigh. âI donât need you judging me for it either, so if youâre quite done then please get the bloody hell out of my dorm.âÂ
It may have been your imagination, but you couldâve sworn that Regulus softened just a little bit. He at least loosened his grip on your wrist, rubbing up your arm in a gesture that mightâve been soothing if it werenât coming from him.Â
âIâm not judging you. If anything, Iâm judging whoever it is that failed to make you finish. Itâs quite rude to leave a lady unsatisfied.âÂ
âWhat would you even know about satisfying a woman, Regulus?â
âTrust me, darling. I know plenty.â Your cheeks heated as he traced circles on your forearm. âTell me, kitten. Have you ever touched yourself?âÂ
The conversation should have ended there. You shouldâve put a stop to it. But this bloody fucking heat was doing strange things to your body. Your hormones were out of control and Regulus was standing way too close for comfort. So close that you could see the little golden flecks in his emerald eyes. So close that one of his curls was tickling your cheek. So close that those full, pillowy lips were mere inches away from your own.Â
He smirked when your gaze dipped down to his mouth. âMy eyes are up here, Y/N and I asked you a question. The polite thing to do is answer.âÂ
âSince when have you ever cared about being polite?âÂ
âI donât, but I think you and I are playing a very dangerous game here and I quite enjoy sparring with you, ma cherie.â Regulus tilted your chin up and cradled your jaw. âSo, have you or have you not touched yourself?âÂ
You glared up at him defiantly; a last ditch effort to keep your dignity intact. âNo,â you said with your head held high. âIâve never touched myself and Iâve never had an orgasm. Are you happy now, Regulus?âÂ
âQuite the opposite,â he murmured. Regulus caressed your bottom lip with his thumb and tilted his head back to study you. His eyes were almost black when they flickered back up to meet yours. âI could teach you.âÂ
âYou want to teach me how toâŠâÂ
âMasturbate. Wank. Get yourself off?â Regulus listed matter-of-factly. âYes. Yes, I do, ma chĂ©rie.â
It shouldâve been a no-brainer. This was a terrible, horrible fucking idea. An absolute hot mess that would yield calamitous results, but the ache in your core was too painful to ignore and you were willing to try just about anything to find relief. Including trusting someone you absolutely loathed.Â
âFine. You can teach me, but thatâs it. None of this goes any further than that.âÂ
Regulus smirked. âI wonât touch you, princess. Not until you beg me to.âÂ
You rolled your eyes, crossing your arms. âSo?âÂ
He nodded behind you. âGet on the bed.âÂ
That was easy enough. You crawled into your mattress and sat cross legged on top of your sheets. âNot like that. Lie down on your back and take those ghastly pajamas off.âÂ
Arsehole. You happened to like your red and gold striped bottoms, but to be fair, they were in the way. The mattress dipped beneath him as Regulus positioned himself at the very edge of the bed. He leaned against the wooden poster, his gaze transfixed on the sight before him.Â
âI wouldnât have taken you as a red lace lingerie type of girl, mon chaton.â You frowned in response, which only made him chuckle. âAs pretty as those panties are, youâll need to take them off as well.âÂ
You hesitated, hooking your thumb over the waistband of your knickers. Regulus raised a brow as if he were challenging you to back out. Like he half-expected you to be too scared to continue. He seriously underestimated that infamous brashness that Gryffindors were so well known for.Â
He inhaled sharply as you slipped out of your panties and tossed the discarded lace next to him. âSpread your legs, sweetheart.âÂ
For once, you kept silent and did what you were told. Regulus nodded tightly. âWider. Yeah, just like that.âÂ
âWhat now?â you asked, trying to keep yourself from blushing at this totally undignified position. You were way past embarrassment now.Â
âRun a finger through your folds,â Regulus said, his voice sounding huskier than it did a second ago. He watched with dark eyes as you stroked your core. âFuck, youâre soaked. I can see it on your fingers.âÂ
You took a deep breath, feeling that tension coil in your lower abdomen. Every fiber of your being buzzed with lust. âStroke yourself, kitten. Imagine that itâs someone else touching you.âÂ
With your eyes closed, you let his voice guide you through the steps. You hated to admit it, but he was good at this. âUse your own slick to make it easier, darling. Gather it before rubbing your clit. Thatâs it, just like that. Thereâs a good girl.âÂ
The words spurred you on, your fingers working that sensitive bundle of nerves to find release. You could feel the budding orgasm. It was spreading through you, setting your teeth on edge. You were close, so close.Â
When the momentum dropped, you nearly cried out of frustration. If you thought you were in pain before, this was ten-fold of that. For some reason, there was some sort of mental block that you couldnât get past.Â
You looked up, your lower lip trembling. âI canât do it. Thereâs this block and I freeze up and I just canât do it on my own.âÂ
Regulus looked unhinged. Like he was going to jump out of his skin any second. Youâve never seen him like this. Anything other than calm and collected was out of character for the youngest Black.Â
âWill you help me?â you whispered. To be honest, you werenât above begging at this point.Â
He looked utterly conflicted. âI donât think thatâs a good idea, Y/N. Youâre in heat. I donât want to take advantage when youâre in such a vulnerable state.âÂ
You shook your head. âYou wouldnât be taking advantage. I know Iâm hormonal, but oddly enough, I trust you. You know how to keep a secret. Just please, Regulus. Iâm in so much pain.âÂ
Regulus was silent for a moment. He seemed to be in deep contemplation. âAre you absolutely sure?âÂ
âYes.âÂ
âAnd youâre aware of what youâre asking for and who youâre asking it from?âÂ
âI am perfectly aware, thank you very much. Is this the most brilliant idea Iâve ever had? Fuck no. Do I still want to do it anyways? Fuck yes.âÂ
The two of you stared at one another. Regulus clenched his jaw and then unclenched it. Finally, he sighed in resignation.Â
âCâmere then.âÂ
He positioned himself against the headboard, his back pressed up on the wood. Regulus bent his long legs and pulled you against him, your back resting against the solid plane of his chest. You sighed as he rubbed soothing circles upon your skin, his rings kissing your hips with their cold bite. He shuffled behind you, adjusting himself just as you caught a glimpse of the two of you in your vanity mirror.Â
Regulus stuck his middle and pointer finger into his mouth, making sure they were nice and wet before he moved them lower. You whimpered as he caressed the inside of your thigh and clutched the sheets as he teased along your crease. When he stroked along your wetness, a choked moan escaped from your lips.Â
âGods, youâre fucking dripping.â His cold breath fanned over your neck just as he plunged his fingers deep within you. âSalazar fucking save me, youâre even tighter than I imagined.âÂ
His strokes were languid, small ministrations as he buried his fingers inside of you. The cold metal rings that adorned his slender fingers hit your pubic bone every time he thrusted inside of you, but it wasnât painful. In fact, seeing the Black heirloom ring soaked in your wetness mightâve been the most erotic sight youâve ever witnessed.
You whimpered as his other hand disappeared underneath your shirt. âCan I touch you here, princess?âÂ
The sound that came out of you barely sounded human. It was a purr more than anything. Regulus caressed your ribs with his knuckles. âI need words, kitten.âÂ
âYou can touch me, Regulus.âÂ
Fire skittered along your skin as his hand traveled further up. He palmed you through your bra before he slipped under the fabric and squeezed your breast. Regulus paid equal attention to both of your breasts, admiring the curve and swell of them as he picked up the pace of his fingers. You moaned as he pinched your nipples, which only made you wetter still.Â
You fisted his curls in one hand as he curved them inside of you. Regulus chuckled darkly, pleased by your reaction. âRight there? Does that feel good, princess?âÂ
âYes,â you breathed. âYes, gods thatâs perfect.âÂ
âYouâre doing so well, ma cherie. Thatâs it. Ride my fingers just like that. Feels good, yeah?âÂ
You nodded, blinking at the image in the mirror. Regulus had his hands all over you, his lips pressed lightly against your neck as he watched his fingers slide in and out of your tight cunt. His eyes caught yours in the reflection, the green completely swallowed by dark pools of lust.Â
âLook at you, all spread out for me. Youâre fucking exquisite. The little moans you make are enough to drive me mad.âÂ
âRegulus, please,â you keened. He smirked against your neck and picked up the pace. Your head fell against his shoulder as that familiar tense built. âOh gods. Oh fuck. Reggieââ
You felt him grip your chin, tilting it towards the mirror. âDonât close your eyes,â Regulus growled into your ear. âWatch, kitten. Watch as I make you cum.â
When you dragged your gaze upwards, you almost didnât recognize yourself. You were in a state of disarray, cheeks flushed, hair matted, and lips parted as Regulus pushed you over the edge. His fingers were magic and every stroke unraveled you, hips bucking, back arching, begging for more and more and more. The orgasm rippled through you like a monsoon, completely swallowing you whole.Â
âThatâs it, princess,â Regulus cooed. âGods, youâre so fucking pretty when you cum. Darling, you look divine. Je suis raide dingue de toi.â
The comedown had you seeing stars. Behind your eyes was a whole galaxy, a cluster of constellations that you never wouldâve reached without him. Regulus had made you cum so hard that your body felt like it was floating through outer space.Â
When you finally regained awareness, you were surprised to find Regulus gently brushing your hair back. âHow was that, kitten?âÂ
âThat wasâyou wereâfuck.â
âWell said, love. Shakespeare himself would envy your silver tongue.â
He slid his fingers out of you slowly and you tried and failed to suppress the little whine that escaped from the back of your throat.Â
Regulus smirked, feeling the way you clenched around his digits in an attempt to keep him in place. He stared at his hand, mesmerized by the arousal dripping off his fingers. You stirred, having every intention to find something that he could clean himself off with.Â
âLet me grab you a towel.âÂ
He gripped your hips in place and looked you straight in the eyes as he brought his fingers to his lips. âNo need, princess.âÂ
Then he sucked, hard. The filthy image was enough to leave you gasping in shock. He lapped up every drop like you were the sweetest delicacy on this earth. Regulus groaned, his eyes rolling back as he savored the taste. The moan that rippled through him would forever be branded into your mind.
For Godricâs fucking sake, the man was downright obscene.
âThat should hold you off for the rest of the day,â Regulus said. âYouâll still feel the effects of your heat, but it wonât be as bad. You might even be able to drag yourself down to dinner. If you can manage to walk on such shaky legs.âÂ
You rolled your eyes, but softened a bit. If it werenât for him, you would still be in excruciating pain. âWould it be strange to say thank you?âÂ
Regulus shrugged nonchalantly as though you were merely discussing the weather. âNot strange at all. Youâre very welcome, princess.âÂ
âYouâreâŠâ you took a deep breath, like your body was rejecting whatever compliment was forming in your mind. âYouâre really good at that.âÂ
âYeah? You think so?âÂ
You quirked a brow. âFishing for compliments, are we?âÂ
âThe only compliment I need is the sound of you moaning my name,â he said with a smile as he hooked your bra back in place and pulled your shirt back down. âI assure you that I intend to hear plenty of that in the near future. This is just the start.âÂ
Regulus straightened, trailing his fingers along the sheets before snatching up the red lace underwear youâd thrown at him earlier. He pocketed the lingerie and smirked.Â
"You said something earlier," you recalled. "Before I..."
"Before I made you come so hard you saw stars?"
Heat flooded your cheeks at his vulgar choice of words. "Yes. Something in French. That's your native tongue, isn't it?"
"Thinking a lot about my tongue, are you love?"
You ignored the salacious comment. "What did you say?"
A devious smirk tugged at his lips. Regulus pierced you with his gaze, those emerald eyes burning with so much lust that you felt choked with desire.
"It's a secret," he whispered, his voice a deep and rough caress. "If you're good, then maybe you'll find out what my tongue and I have to say."
You rolled your eyes. "You're a pain in the arse, Regulus."
"Find me when you want to play again, princess," Regulus said with a dark chuckle. "I'll be waiting for those claws to come out. See you soon, mon chaton.âÂ

âaugustâ
regulus black x reader
-friends with benefits turns south when a certain slytherin realises heâs risked it all for someone who canât give her all.
warnings: guys this is sad đ #angst and the reader is an arse đ«¶. mostly from regulusâ pov, a bit suggestive, so 16+ probably
a/n: guys regulus black brain rot is real and it is destroying my life. i love this man!! i wish he was real!! listen to august by taylor swift while reading this
back when i was living for the hope of it all
scattered pieces of paper, short candles- melted to their base, muggle poetry books and âtiny dancerâ by elton john. this is what regulus thought of when anybody so much as muttered the name ây/n l/nâ.
y/n was his best friend, his only friend for that matter. they were often found pacing libraries and the school grounds late at night- then detention or the headmasters office after school for lurking around after hours. they would read the same books and listen to the same songs, gushing about things that their respective families would deem âwrongâ due to the muggle nature of the content they were discussing.
despite their friendship, regulus had always yearned for something more. between playful smiles and withheld glances, he wanted to say something reminiscent of the romance parts in the muggle books that they read- but that sentiment was much more than words could ever communicate.
instead, it was communicated late at night as they tiptoed through the corridors in heavy sweaters and hushed whispers. regulus had lightly pushed y/n against a wall and kissed her passionately, the action being returned by y/n mere seconds later.
but this didnât mean anything, not to y/n at least.
the next morning the two went back to normal, sitting next to each other in the grand hall and gossiping about other students. when regulus tried to talk to her about it, he was simply brushed off.
later that night they found themselves in y/nâs dorm room- tip toeing around without heavy sweaters but still hushed whispers.
regulus didnât mind, or at least he pretended that he didnât mind. but the summer was finally arriving and their families had a few balls planned out, so they wouldnât be completely deprived of one another.
âi canât believe we wonât get to see each other everyday!â y/n cried dramatically, jumping into regulusâs uniform as they packed their bags.
âitâs only 2 weeks until your familyâs ball, donât worry!â he laughed, pushing y/n off playfully.
y/n shook her head. âyou best not forget about me in those 2 weeksâ she said. regulus gasped, with his hand in his heart. âi would never!â he claimed.
those long two weeks finally came to an end on a warm friday night. y/n was spotted by regulus mere moments after guests were being invited in, as she laid back on a wall in a silk dress with a glass of wine in her hand. âwho said youâre old enough to drink?â he asked, hands on his hips as he walked over.
âcalm down! itâs only juice. i added vodka though,â she chuckled, bringing in regulus for a hug. âi missed youâ she whispered in his ear, sending shivers down his spine. regulus gulped, taking a step back as his cheeks turned red.
âwhere can i get myself some of that juice vodka?â he asked.
âsee that table over there? pour half of whatever and come back to me for the flask, i have two just in caseâ she gestured over to a king dining table, filled with drinks of every kind.
late into the ball, the two were nowhere to be found. hidden in an abandoned guest room, extremely intoxicated and underdressed, regulus and y/n sat against a grey-painted wall and on top of a carpet with a sinister pattern. consumed by fear of the war and a pure yearning for one another, they continued the sullen tradition of their previous year at hogwarts.
âdo you like me?â regulus asked, lighting a cigarette from his suit pocket. y/n crawled over, grabbing one out from his pocket as well and holding it out for him to light it. regulus acknowledged the gesture and lit the cigarette, laying back into the frame of the bed they were sitting on.
âof course i do, reggieâ y/n smiled, taking in the smoke. âif i didnât, i wouldnât be here post-shag smoking in bed with youâ she laughed, resting her head on his shoulder.
âbut what type of like?â he asked, inverting his legs towards his torso slightly. y/n shook her head. âthatâs a pretty loaded questionâ she remarked, closing her eyes.
regulus shook his head confusedly. he blew out the smoke and extended his arm around y/n. âi donât think itâs loaded. i like you more than anyone iâve ever met, thatâs the type of like i like you as⊠if that makes any senseâ he muttered.
âi like you more than anyone else tooâ
a few weeks pass and the noble house of black was hosting their own little gathering, and the l/n family was obviously invited.
the two embraced passionately upon y/nâs arrival, spinning her around like a ballerina in the process. after a shared dance or two, regulus and y/n scurried off to regulusâs bedroom for the rest of the night.
âwhereâs sirius?â y/n asked, tracing her fingers over his bookcase.
âhe left. my parents well⊠you can kind of guess what happened but heâs gone. dick move not saving me either but, whateverâ regulus sighed, laying back into his bed.
âis he staying with james?â y/n asked, laying back with him.
âyeah. iâm guessing heâs happy there. i wish heâd at least write or let me know heâs safe, but he definitely thinks iâm a devout death eater or somethingâ
âi donât think youâre a devout death eaterâ
âi donât think i am eitherâ
the two shared a train carriage upon the beginning of the school year. from the outside of their almost empty room, they could see james and his friends skipping about, sirius catching a glance of his younger brother for the first time in weeks.
he was consumed by his lonliness and pressure from his parents, y/n was the only person who could relieve that. he didnât mind if their relationship was barley a relationship and merely friends with benefits.
he stared at her hair and the way her eyes glisten in the morning sun. he wondered what she was thinking or what she was going to say. he wanted to hear something reassuring for the first time after only hearing screams and shouts from his parents.
âdo you think we should stop fooling around this year?â y/n asked, breaking regulus out of his spell.
âwhy?â
âwe need to start getting serious about our studies and i need to find a suitorâ she said plainly, nestles against the walls of the train carriage.
regulus looked at her, dumbfounded. what did she mean by that?
âis what we have really that disposable?â he asked, trying to find the right words.
âi donât know. i still want to be friends, youâre my favourite personâ
âif i was your favourite person, why are you calling this off right now of all times? why not last year when you knew i was in love with you and you kept me around for whatever sick reasons you have? why now?â regulus whisper-shouted, sitting up straight.
y/n shook her head, placing down the book she was previously reading. âlove? we werenât even in a relationship, regulusâ
âbut we were close enough to snog 5 times a day?â
r/n sighed, standing up. âi knew youâd get like this, youâre far too dependant. i canât handle giant commitments and you know that! why would you do this to me?â
âfuck off, have a good yearâ regulus said as he grabbed his bags and pushed past y/n.
burning toast, stolen glances, venomous stares and obvious avoidance. these are the things that regulus thought of when he heard y/n l/nâs name. as much as he wishes he could hate her, there was no end to his eternal love.

regulus black x reader
- in which your rivalry with regulus manifests into something a little more romantic, despite your mutual âdislikeâ for one another.
warnings: none??? idk bad writing because i havenât written a fic in like 2 years lol. maybe making out. y/n has gender neutral pronouns so go nuts guys!! y/n is a pothead
regulus black never had many friends. during mealtimes he would often sit alone in the library and study, or sit with a crowd of slytherins he kind of knew but didnât like. he was never able to formulate any sort of real connection between himself and someone else- until he was seated next to y/n in his 3rd year potions class.
âhiâ they would mutter, plopping down on their assigned seat next to regulus. he would never respond verbally, but he usually shot her an affirming look. but soon after these muttered hellos and affirming looks, regulus and y/n formed an intense rivalry.
maybe it began when y/n accidentally blew up something important they were being assessed on, or when regulus got them both detention by speaking back to a teacher- but they were officially rivals. this rivalry continued into their 5th year at hogwarts, becoming common knowledge amongst the student body and the teachers.
âwelcome back, 5th years. please take your assigned seats and weâll start with the lesson,â their professor announced. y/n sighed and walked away from their friends who were sitting a few desks in front of them and regulus. they took their seat and set up their side of the desk messily before resting their head in their palm and staring at the board.
regulus shot them a few glances, never alarming them or making it known to anyone else that he was looking. he was just so enchanted by what they got in their last test, not the way their face looked when they were focusing on something.
âwhat are you looking at?â they muttered, looking into regulusâ eyes with arched eyebrows and a hollow expression. âyouâve got something on your face.â he replied confidently, looking back to the board. âwait, where?â they whispered, pulling out a small pocket mirror. ânext to your noseâ regulus whispered back, concerned by how worried y/n was about the state of their face. âthereâs nothing there!â they said as they slammed the pocket mirror closed and adjusted their hair. regulus chuckled, raising his head confidently in response. âwankerâ y/n sighed, rolling their eyes and leaning back into their chair.
later throughout the lesson, y/n reached for an ingredient and was met with a brush of regulusâs hand. they instinctively pulled away, resting the hand in their lap in retaliation. regulus smirked, shooting y/n a teasing glance. âcanât keep your hands off me, canât you?â he laughed, continuing with the practical. âmy hands will be on your face in a second!â the replied, crossing their arms. regulus put a hand to his heart and scoffed. âmy point has been proven. are you in love with me or something?â he asked, earning a judgmental look from y/n. âi mean iâm going to slap youâ they assured him, shaking their head.
âi donât know what youâre talking about. you guys are delusional,â y/n stated confidently in response to their friends concerns about her relationship with regulus. âare you sure? you flirt every potions lessonâŠâ phyra replied as she arched her eyebrows and played with her dinner. y/n shook their head. âew, i would never!â
phyra and y/n walked around the campus for a while, exchanging secrets and sentiments about their classmates. as they tiptoed around the school grounds, y/n made eye-contact with a certain dark haired slytherin, who sent them a sarcastic wink and walked off towards the slytherin common room. y/no face turned a deep red as they pulled phyra away and continued walking. âokay, now youâre flirting outside of class? what is going on?!â she laughed, earning a prolonged âughâ from y/n. ânothing is going on, heâs just being an absolute dickâ they rolled their eyes as they walked alongside their friend. âi think you like him a tad bitâ she whispered playfully, alarming y/n. âdisgusting! i would never!â
looking back, maybe y/n did have some sort of feelings for regulus. something that maybe was a little different than hate or a strong dislike. they couldnât doubt that they were attracted to him, because everyone was. regulus had a strong jawline and confident eyes, it felt as though he was teasing you just by looking at you. y/n knew that this attraction was totally normal! the butterflies they felt whenever they saw him was just the manifestation of their mutual dislike.
regulus, surprisingly, was a little more in touch with his feelings. he was constantly flooded with his own feelings of attraction whenever their eyes met, making him regret even waking up that morning because he knew he would have to deal with these feelings in almost every single class.
âwhat are you doing up?â regulus inquired late at night, leaning up against the walls of the slytherin common room whilst y/n sat on a couch with âthe bell jarâ in one hand and a joint in the other. they shot a worried glance, trying to get rid of the smoke by whacking around the book in the air. ânothing!â
regulus smirked and walked over to where they were sitting, leaning over the frame of the couch and gesturing for the joint. y/n reluctantly handed it to him and sunk deeper into their cardigan. âyou do know you shouldnât smoke insideâ he grinned as he took inside the smoke and released it nonchalantly. âwhere else am i supposed to go?â they responded, closing their book. âoutside?â he replied, taking another hit of the joint. âhonestly, i would love to go outside but itâs colder than the north fucking pole out there!â y/n whisper shouted, gesturing for the joint. regulus chuckled as he took one more hit before passing it back to them.
âso is this what you do in your free time?â regulus inquired, leaning further of the frame of the court. y/n twisted their figure to face regulus. âmore or less, sometimes i donât readâ they replied, pushing back their hair. regulus stared into their eyes, pushing down a warmth in his cheeks. âwhy are you being nice to meâ they asked, resign their head on the top of the touch, close to where regulus was resting his. âyou let me have like, half of that jointâ he replied, smirking slightly. y/n nodded their head.
âyou know youâre pretty right?â he asked plainly, staring deeply into y/nâs eyes. âwhat? is that you or the mary jane talking?â y/n turned red and lifted their head up to turn their face away slightly from regulus. âwhichever you preferâ he responded calmly. y/n anxiously played with their hands, trying to avoid eye contact with regulus. âum, itâs getting lateâŠâ they muttered. regulus perked up, pushing back away from the couch and back to the wall he was leaning up against. ârightâ he affirmed, lifting up his hand slightly in agreement.
y/n picked up her book and handed the rest of the joint to regulus. he shot them a confused look as they reached out their hand to him. âkeep it, i have like 8 moreâ they assured, brushing their hand against his. regulus took it and stuffed it in the pocket of his pants. âi wasnât lying when i said you were prettyâ he assured them, crossing his arms. y/n shook their head, walking back to their dorm room.
regulus pushed back his hair and sighed, making his way back to his down as well. embarrassed by his attempts, he walked over to y/nâs dorm and knocked on their door. soon after knocking, the door opened up to welcome a flustered regulus and a confused y/n. âi like you?â he said with arched brows, holding the door open. âare you sure?â they replied, holding back a vibrant blush. âwhat, do you want me to prove it or something?â he said as his gaze moved away from y/n. y/n shrugged, moving closer towards regulus.
âmaybe i do, maybe i donâtâ they teased, before regulus lifted up their chin and kissed them softly. their eyes closed as their hands rested nearly on his body. he pulled away slowly after, stepping backwards slightly. âum, see you in potions.â he whispered anxiously before scattering way to his own dorm, leaving y/n to stand in the middle of their door frame, extremely confused.
So the forms didn't work so instead if you guys have a request you can just ask me to do it
In which the marauders era gang wish Regulus' 'sunshine' girlfriend a happy birthday on social media.
Warning: N/A, just fluff and poor set up and writing on my behalf.

lilyevans: since we're all wishing Y/N a happy birthday, I would like to remind everyone of everything she had done for us and how she and regulus first met. If you are all unaware Y/N had done alot like for example she tutors younger children including sirius as he acts like one and she helped me discover my true feelings for james. anyway regulus and Y/N first met after her boyfriend broke up with her and he comforted her when he found her crying in the corner at her 16th birthday party, so for that we have crowned them the perfect couple.

Hi, dear! I'm sorry if you don't write character death, I read your 'rules and disclaimers' and I didn't see death at either yes or no so this is just me shooting my shot and ask you if you would write an Regulus x reader where, preferably the reader, dies, and Regulus goes through grief? Again, I'm sorry if this made you feel uncomfy, I absolutly love your writing. All the love <3
Regulus knew he wouldnât survive, but he didnât mind. Death meant seeing you again.

warnings: Angst, mentions death, torture, drowning, implied depression. Read on your own accord
note: I usually write fluff rather than death, so this is definitely outside my comfort zone, but in a way I enjoy. To answer your question, I see death as a natural part of angst, so no need to apologize. Again, PLEASE READ ON YOUR OWN ACCOUNT. I changed the way I post my stories. Do you think it looks good?

Regulus Black sat before your grave, his back hunched, his once-impeccable robes now wrinkled and dusted with dirt. His hair, usually neat, hung in unruly strands around his pale face. He hadn't left since your funeral, unable to tear himself away from the cold stone that bore your name. The world had moved on, but he had not. He could not.
The sickness had taken you swiftly, cruelly. One moment, you were laughing with him, teasing him about his brooding nature, pressing a soft kiss to his cheek. The next, you were weak, burning with fever, and he was powerless to stop it. Even the best healers could not save you. And now, Regulus was left in a world that no longer made sense, with only memories to replay over and over again in his mind.
He closed his eyes, and for a moment, he was back in the candlelit glow of your shared bedroom, your laughter ringing in his ears. "Regulus, you're staring again," you'd tease, poking his chest as he smirked down at you. "Can you blame me?" he'd reply, pulling you into his arms. But when he opened his eyes, he was alone. Always alone.
The two of you had been caught outside during the seasonâs first snowfall. You had thrown your head back, eyes wide with delight as you stuck your tongue out to catch the falling flakes. Regulus had only watched, mesmerized. "You look ridiculous," he muttered, but his lips twitched in amusement.
You grinned, tugging on his scarf to pull him closer. "Admit it, you love it."
"I love you," he corrected softly. And as the snow fell around you both, he sealed his words with a kiss, his hands cupping your chilled cheeks.
Regulus lay beside you in bed, staring at the ceiling, while your fingers lazily traced patterns along his arm. "If you could be anywhere, doing anything, where would you be?" you asked.
He turned his head to look at you. "Here. With you."
You rolled your eyes. "Thatâs a cop-out answer."
He smirked. "Itâs the truth."
You huffed, but he could see the warmth in your eyes, the way your lips curled slightly at the edges. You leaned over, pressing a kiss to his forehead. "Youâre such a sap, Regulus Black."
One evening, long after the world had fallen asleep, you had pulled him to his feet in the sitting room. A record played in the background, its melody soft and crackling with age.
"I donât dance," he had grumbled.
"Then stand there and let me dance with you," you countered, resting your head against his chest as you swayed gently. Slowly, hesitantly, he moved with you, his arms wrapping around your waist. The world outside did not exist in that momentâonly the two of you did.
Regulus had never felt fear like this before. Not in battle, not in the presence of the Dark Lord. Nothing compared to the helplessness that gripped him as he knelt beside you, his hands trembling as they brushed against your fevered skin.
"Love, please," he whispered, his voice raw. "Stay with me. Just a little longer."
You offered him a weak smile, your fingers curling around his wrist. "Reg⊠donât look at me like that."
"Like what?" he choked out.
"Like you already think Iâm gone."
His throat tightened. He wanted to argue, wanted to tell you that you werenât allowed to leave him. But even as he held your hand tightly in his own, he could feel you slipping away.
"I donât know how to live without you," he admitted, voice barely above a whisper.
You exhaled softly, the weight of exhaustion evident in your features. "You donât have to. Just⊠just promise me youâll keep living. Even when itâs hard."
Regulus swallowed past the lump in his throat. "I canât."
You gave his hand a faint squeeze. "You can. Youâre stronger than you think."
But he wasnât. He was weak without you. And when your eyes finally fluttered shut, and your grip on his hand loosened, something inside him shattered beyond repair.
Days turned to weeks. Regulus stopped attending Death Eater meetings. The Dark Lord sent summons, but he ignored them. Nothing mattered anymore. He barely ate, barely slept. It was as if he had died with you; only his body remained, trapped in this hollow existence.
The Dark Lordâs patience began to wane. He could not tolerate insubordination, not even from the Black heir. At the next gathering, Regulus's absence did not go unnoticed.
"Where is Regulus?" Voldemortâs voice cut through the room, cold and sharp.
Silence.
Lucius Malfoy cleared his throat, exchanging a glance with the others. "He has⊠not been well, my Lord."
Voldemortâs expression remained unreadable. "Not well? Or unwilling?"
A heavy tension filled the chamber, the air thick with unspoken fear. Then, with a slow, deliberate nod, he turned his gaze to Narcissa Malfoy.
"Go to him," he commanded. "Remind him where his loyalties lie. And if he refuses to remember⊠persuade him."
Bellatrix Lestrange let out a sharp laugh, the kind that sent a chill down the spine. "Oh, dearest cousin has lost his spirit?" she cooed, her dark eyes glittering with amusement. "Mourning a little lost love? How... pathetic."
Narcissa shot her sister a warning look before bowing her head to the Dark Lord. "I will see to it, my Lord."
Bellatrix sneered. "And if he does not listen?"
"Then we ensure he does," Voldemort replied simply, his tone leaving no room for argument.
Narcissa arrived at Grimmauld Place within the hour, her expression composed but laced with concern. She knew grief. She knew how it twisted inside a person, warping their reality, making the rest of the world fade to nothing. But she also knew the cost of disobedience.
She found Regulus where she expectedâby your grave. His head was bowed, his fingers tracing the etched letters of your name. He did not look up as she approached, did not acknowledge her presence.
"Regulus," she said softly, kneeling beside him. "You have to come inside. Youâll make yourself ill."
He did not move.
She reached out, placing a gentle hand on his arm. "She wouldn't want this for you. She loved you, Regulus. You think she would want you wasting away like this?"
His voice, when he finally spoke, was hoarse from disuse. "Donât. You donât understand, Cissy."
"I do understand," she countered, squeezing his arm. "But I also understand that the Dark Lord does not tolerate weakness. He sent me here to remind you of that."
Regulus exhaled sharply, finally lifting his gaze to her. His eyes were hollow, void of the sharp intellect that had once defined him. "Let him kill me, then. It would be easier."
Narcissaâs stomach clenched at his words, but before she could respond, the fireplace in the house roared to life, signaling another arrival.
Bellatrix.
She strode into the clearing like a phantom of death, her wand twirling between her fingers as she observed the pathetic sight before her.
"Look at you," she taunted, tilting her head. "The great Regulus Black, reduced to nothing more than a lovesick fool." She sighed, shaking her head dramatically. "What a waste."
Regulus did not react, not even as she stepped closer. Bellatrix crouched before him, her dark curls falling over her shoulder as she studied him with twisted fascination.
"You think grieving makes you noble?" she whispered mockingly. "It makes you weak. Sheâs gone. Dead. Nothing you do will bring her back."
Regulus's jaw clenched, his hands curling into fists. "Shut up."
Bellatrix grinned. "Thereâs fire in you still. Good. Youâll need it when the Dark Lord decides you are no longer worth keeping."
Narcissa rose to her feet, stepping between them. "Thatâs enough, Bella."
Bellatrix huffed, rolling her eyes. "Enough? Oh, dearest sister, our cousin here needs a lesson in duty."
Regulus finally looked up, his gaze meeting Bellatrix's with something dangerous simmering beneath the emptiness. "My duty?" he echoed. "Tell me, Bellaâwhat would you do if it were Rodolphus? If he was the one buried here?"
For the first time, Bellatrix faltered. It was brief, barely noticeable, but it was there, a flicker of something human beneath her insanity.
She scoffed, straightening up, mask falling back into place. "Thatâs the difference between us, dear cousin. I would not be weak enough to let love ruin me."
Regulus gave a hollow laugh, shaking his head. "Then I pity you."
Bellatrixâs eyes darkened, but before she could retort, Narcissa stepped forward, voice firm. "Thatâs enough. We came here for one reason."
She turned to Regulus, her expression softening. "Come back, Regulus. At least pretend, for your sake. If you keep ignoring the Dark Lordâs summons, it will not be my voice or Bellaâs he sends next."
Regulus looked at her for a long moment before exhaling, the weight of his grief pressing down on him. "Fine," he murmured. "Iâll come."
Bellatrix smirked. "Smart boy."
But as Regulus stood, casting one last glance at your grave, he knew the truth.
He would never truly return. Because a part of him had died with you, and no amount of pretending could change that.
A few days later, the night was thick with smoke, the air filled with the distant echoes of screams and the crackling of fire. The raid was nothing new, another display of the Dark Lordâs power, another night of violence. Regulus moved through the wreckage like a specter, his wand gripped tightly in his fingers, his expression empty.
The mission had been simple: take down those who resisted, leave an example behind. It should have been nothing more than another task to complete. And yet, something in Regulus had cracked.
His wand was raised, the curse spilling from his lips before he had even registered the words.
âCrucio.â
The man collapsed instantly, his back arching off the ground as if an invisible force had seized his spine and twisted it. A raw, guttural scream tore from his throat, his fingers clawing desperately at the dirt, nails breaking as he convulsed. His legs jerked uncontrollably, his body writhing like a trapped insect beneath a magnifying glass, unable to escape the unbearable fire coursing through his veins.
Regulus didnât blink. Didnât waver. His arm remained steady, his grip on his wand firm. The screaming filled his ears, louder than the roaring flames consuming the house behind them, louder than the shouted orders of other Death Eaters in the distance. It should have been enough. But it wasnât.
âCrucio.â
Another wave of agony slammed into the manâs already broken body. He choked on his breath, gasping as though drowning, his limbs seizing up before thrashing violently against the cobbled ground. His skin was slick with sweat, his face contorted into something beyond recognitionâbeyond human. A broken animal, screaming for mercy that would never come.
Regulusâs heart pounded against his ribs, his fingers twitching as he tightened his hold on his wand. The pain in the manâs eyesâit reflected something back at him. Something raw. Something that made his own grief flare like an open wound. He wanted to stop feeling nothing. He wanted to make the world feel what he did.
âGood,â a voice purred from behind him.
Bellatrix.
Her presence slithered through the smoke like a serpent, her dark eyes gleaming with sadistic delight as she watched him work. She stepped closer, her breath warm against his ear. âAgain.â
Regulus hesitated for only a second before his grip tightened once more. The man on the ground barely had the strength to whimper, his body twitching, his consciousness fraying at the edges. His breaths came in wet, strangled gasps, his eyes rolling back in his head. He was close to the edge, teetering between agony and oblivion.
Bellatrix chuckled, her voice dripping with approval. âYes, dear cousin, let him suffer. Make him beg.â
Regulusâs expression was unreadable, his heart hammering. He lifted his wand once more, ready to cast again, to drag the man deeper into suffering. To let the pain swallow them both whole.
And yet, as he stared down at the broken body beneath him, something twisted in his chest. The manâs face was a mess of blood, sweat, and agony. His fingers twitched, his body barely responding to the torture anymore. He was nothing but a shell now.
Regulus took a slow breath and lowered his wand.
Bellatrixâs smile faltered, her excitement giving way to scrutiny. âWhy did you stop?â
Regulus didnât answer. He turned away from the broken man at his feet and walked past her, his expression void of anything. Bellatrix watched him go, amusement flickering in her gaze.
âOh, cousin,â she whispered, laughter dancing on her lips. âThe Dark Lord will be so pleased.â
Regulus didnât react. He just kept walking, the manâs screams still ringing in his ears, merging with the ghosts of the past he could never escape.
Another raid. Another night drenched in screams and the scent of burning wood. The world around Regulus was a blur of fire and shadows, but none of it truly touched him. He moved as if in a trance, detached from the chaos that once might have rattled him. Nothing mattered anymore.
The target of their raid had been reduced to a heap of trembling limbs, barely clinging to consciousness. A once-proud wizard, now on his knees in the mud, his body wrecked with exhaustion and pain. Regulus stood over him, wand still raised, breath slow and measured. He didnât even remember how long he had been casting.
Death Eaters gathered in a loose circle around them, the flickering firelight illuminating their masks, their dark robes shifting like shadows. Some watched in silence, arms crossed, their expressions hidden but their satisfaction clear. Others smirked, whispering amongst themselves, reveling in the spectacle. This was entertainment. A lesson. A show of power.
âCrucio.â
A gurgled scream ripped from the manâs throat, his head snapping back as another wave of unimaginable pain consumed him. He twitched and writhed, his fingers digging into the dirt as if the earth itself could save him. But there was no salvation. No mercy.
Bellatrixâs laughter echoed through the ruined village, a sweet and cruel melody that slithered into Regulusâs ears. She stood nearby, watching him with an indulgent sort of pleasure.
âThatâs it, darling,â she cooed, stepping closer. âFeel it. Let it consume you.â
Regulus tightened his grip on his wand, watching the way the manâs body spasmed, his eyes rolling back, his screams hoarse and broken. He should have stopped. This should have sickened him. But all he felt was the void.
âAgain,â Bellatrix urged, voice thick with delight.
Regulus obeyed. The curse tore from his lips once more, and the man shrieked, though his body was barely responding now. He was slipping, teetering on the edge of death, barely holding onto life by the frayed strings of his shattered nerves.
Bellatrix stepped around Regulus, her movements slow, predatory. She knelt beside the broken man, running a gloved finger through the blood seeping into the mud.
âSee how beautiful suffering can be?â she murmured, her gaze flicking up to meet Regulusâs. âYou understand it now, donât you?â
From the corner of his eye, Regulus saw some of the Death Eaters nodding approvingly, their postures relaxed, satisfied. Others murmured to one another, their voices thick with amusement, speaking as if this were nothing more than a game.
Regulus didnât answer. His wand was still raised, his heart hammering beneath his ribs. He wasnât sure if it was from exhilaration or sickness. He wasnât sure if he cared.
Bellatrix smirked, her dark eyes dancing with a manic sort of glee.
âThe Dark Lord will be pleased,â she said, almost sing-song. âYouâre finally becoming who you were meant to be.â
Regulus swallowed hard, his fingers tingling from the magic coursing through him. His chest felt hollow, his veins filled with ice. He didnât look at the man he had broken. He didnât want to.
Instead, he turned away, stepping over the crumpled body as if it were nothing more than debris in his path.
Bellatrix followed him, still smiling, still watching.
The Death Eaters parted as he passed, some murmuring words of approval, others giving him silent nods of respect. This was his place now. This was who they believed he was becoming.
But Regulus felt nothing. Nothing at all.
The first time Regulus killed someone after your death, it wasnât intentional. At least, not in the beginning.
The raid had gone as all the others did, rushed movements, shouts, spells flying through the air like lightning, the scent of burning wood and flesh thickening the night. Regulus had been moving on instinct, his mind caught somewhere between the present and the past, the ghosts of his memories keeping him at a cruel distance from reality. He barely registered the man he had cornered, barely recognized the wand shaking in the desperate grip of someone who had already lost.
It should have been over quickly. Stun him. Leave him. Move on. But something snapped.
The man had looked up at him, eyes wide, pleading, and there was somethingâsomething in his expression.
It was the way his lips parted, the way his chest heaved, the way his entire body braced for the worst but still hoped, still begged for mercy. It was the same way you had looked at Regulus once. The same way you had reached for him in your final moments, fingers weak, trembling, before they had gone cold against his skin.
His wand moved before he could think.
âCrucio.â
The man screamed.
Regulus had cast the curse before, had heard the sound of agony a hundred times over. But this was different. This wasnât calculated. This wasnât controlled. It was raw, vicious, and desperate. He poured everything into itâhis grief, his rage, his emptiness. He watched as the man writhed beneath the force of his magic, body twisting unnaturally, breath choking in his throat as his screams turned ragged.
And Regulus didnât stop.
He barely noticed when the others fell silent around him, when the fight moved on, when the only sound left in the alley was the crackling fire and the wet gasps of a dying man. His hand was shaking, grip tight around his wand as though it were the only thing tethering him to the world.
The man stopped moving. His chest barely rose. His fingers twitched, his mouth opened, whether to speak or to breathe, Regulus would never know. Because, in that next instant, the last thread of life snapped, and he was gone.
Regulus stared down at him, at the way the light had left his eyes, at the way his body had gone slack in the dirt, at the way his blood soaked into the ground as if the earth itself was eager to erase his existence.
He waited for the guilt. He waited for the satisfaction. He waited for anything at all.
But there was nothing. No regret. No triumph. No relief.
Just emptiness.
A void where something should have been.
And as the night stretched on, as the echoes of death faded into the wind, Regulus realized that maybe, just maybe, there was nothing left of him to save.
Regulus hadnât looked at himself in weeks. Maybe months. There was no need. He already knew what he would seeâsomeone who wasnât really alive anymore. A hollowed-out thing, a ghost wrapped in skin.
But tonight, something had drawn his eyes to the mirror.
It was accidental. He had stumbled into the Black family bathroom after another sleepless night, reaching for the basin to splash water on his face. But then his gaze flickered up, and there he was.
He froze.
The man staring back wasnât him. He looked sickly, his once-pale skin now ashen, stretched thin over his sharp cheekbones. The deep shadows beneath his eyes made them look sunken, like the empty sockets of a corpse. His lips were chapped, bloodied in places where he had bitten them raw without realizing it. His dark curls, once so carefully combed, were a tangled, matted mess.
His mother would have been horrified. His father, disgusted. He might have cared once.
Regulus gripped the edge of the sink, his knuckles turning white. He wasnât sure how long he stood there, staring, unable to look away. A thought flickered through his mindâhow much he looked like you in the last days before you died. How the sickness had drained the life from your body, how your eyes had dulled, how you had wasted away until there was nothing left but a fragile shadow of the person you once were.
You were dead.
And he was still here. Why?
Something cracked inside him, something he had been holding together for too long. His breath hitched, his vision blurred, and suddenly he was moving, his hand lashing out before he could stop himself.
The mirror shattered.
The pieces clattered to the floor, sharp fragments catching the dim candlelight, scattering across the black-and-white tiles. He stared down at them, his chest rising and falling with uneven breaths, his fingers shaking. Blood dripped from his knuckles where the glass had sliced him, but he barely felt the pain.
It was quiet now.
Too quiet.
His reflection was gone. No more proof that he was still here, that he was still breathing when you werenât.
He slumped to the floor, his back against the sink, staring blankly at the broken shards surrounding him. It felt fitting. Like his body had finally caught up with the state of his soul.
He wasnât sure how long he had sat there. Minutes. Hours. Maybe forever. The thought of moving, of getting up and continuing like nothing had happened, felt impossible. The weight in his chest, the crushing emptiness inside him, was too much.
And for the first time, he didnât want to fight it.
The thought came slowly, creeping in like a whisper in the back of his mind, curling around him like smoke.
It would be easier. To just⊠stop.
To close his eyes and never open them again. To let go.
He wasnât scared. He had nothing left to be afraid of. No one left to disappoint.
You were waiting for him. Somewhere out there, beyond all of this, you were waiting.
Regulus let his head fall back against the cabinet, his bloodied hand going limp at his side. He exhaled slowly, almost peacefully.
Maybe it was time to go home. Go back home to you.
The cave was silent, save for the rhythmic lapping of the dark lake against the stone. The air was damp, thick with the scent of decay, of something ancient and long-forgotten. Regulus stood at the waterâs edge, his wand raised, the golden locket heavy in his trembling hand.
This was it. His final act of defiance.
He had spent so long lost in grief, spiraling deeper into the abyss of the Dark Lordâs service, hollowed out by your absence. He had tried to fill that void with cruelty, with violence, with mindless obedience. But none of it had numbed the agony of losing you. And now, he stood here, at the edge of his own demise, finally understanding what you would have wanted for him.
He wasnât meant to be this. He wasnât meant to be a monster.
âKreacher,â he whispered. The elf trembled beside him, eyes wide with terror. âTake this. Go. Destroy it.â He forced the locket into Kreacherâs small hands, curling the elfâs fingers around it.
âBut Master Regulusââ Kreacherâs voice cracked.
âPlease,â Regulus breathed, kneeling before the only soul who had remained loyal to him. âYou must live. You must finish what I started.â
Tears burned his eyes as he thought of you, of the way you would have scolded him for throwing his life away, for giving up. But this wasnât giving up, was it? This was finally doing something right.
Kreacher vanished with a crack.
And then, the water stirred.
Cold fingers clawed at the air, skeletal hands breaking through the surface. The Inferi moved unnaturally, jerking toward him with silent, gaping mouths. He lifted his wand, but he already knewâthere was no escaping this.
His body screamed to fight, to run, but Regulus let himself sink to his knees. A hand gripped his wrist, another clawed at his shoulder, and suddenly he was being pulled under, the icy water swallowing him whole.
Darkness wrapped around him, numbing his limbs, slowing his heart. He exhaled a shuddering breath, bubbles escaping his lips as the last remnants of air left his lungs. He didnât fight. He didnât thrash. He simply closed his eyes and let the memory of you carry him away.
Your laughter. Your warmth. The way you whispered his name like it was something sacred.
He saw you waiting for him in the depths, reaching out, just as you had before you were taken from him. And as the abyss claimed him, for the first time since your death, he felt peace.
Your name was the last thing that left his lips before the darkness took him forever.
When Regulus opened his eyes, he was somewhere else. The cold was gone, the suffocating weight of water no longer pressing against his lungs. Instead, there was lightâsoft, warm, golden light. The kind he had only seen in dreams.
And then he saw you.
You stood before him, untouched by time, just as he remembered youâbeautiful, radiant, alive. His breath hitched, his chest tightening as he stumbled forward, almost afraid that if he touched you, you would disappear.
But you didnât.
The moment his arms wrapped around you, the dam inside him shattered. A sob ripped from his throat, raw and broken, and he clung to you as if he were drowning all over again. His fingers dug into you, desperate, needing to make sure this was real, that you were real.
âIâm so sorry,â he choked out, burying his face in your shoulder. âIâm soâso sorry.â
Your hands came up, running through his dark hair, soothing, grounding. âShh, Regulus,â you murmured. âItâs over. Youâre safe now.â
But he wasnât sure he deserved to be. He had done terrible things. He had let grief consume him, let it turn him into something unrecognizable. He had been lost for so long.
Yet, in your arms, he finally felt found.
You pulled back just enough to cup his face, wiping away his tears with your thumbs. âYou did the right thing,â you whispered. âYouâre here now. With me.â
Regulus let out another broken sob, pressing his forehead against yours. For the first time in what felt like eternity, the void inside him wasnât empty anymore. He was home.
With you.
Y/N struggled with insecurity, but Regulus, hopelessly smitten, finally took her on a date.

Regulus sat at the Slytherin table, utterly dazed, his chin resting in his palm as he stared dreamily across the Great Hall at Y/N. His porridge had long since gone cold, but he hadnât noticedâhe was too lost in his thoughts, replaying the moment she had said yes to him over and over again in his mind.
âI still donât understand how she agreed,â he muttered, more to himself than anyone else.
Barty groaned, throwing his head back dramatically. âMerlin, Regulus, this is worse than before! Youâve been staring at her for ten minutes straight. Eat your bloody food.â
Evan smirked as he took a sip of his pumpkin juice. âNo, let him have his moment. Itâs adorable, really.â
Regulus scowled, but it lacked any real irritation. âI just donât get it. Sheâs brilliant, kind, beautifulâwhy would she choose me?â
Pandora sighed, ever the voice of reason. âMaybe because she sees something wonderful in you, just like you see in her?â
Regulus opened his mouth to argue but found that he had no response. He turned his gaze back to Y/N, who sat alone at the Ravenclaw table, her head bowed as she picked at her food. She never seemed to talk to anyone, always lost in her world. His heart clenched at the sight. She looked so lonely, and yet, there was something about her solitude that made her seem untouchable, as if she had built walls that no one had ever tried to climb.
âI donât deserve her,â he murmured, barely audible.
Barty groaned louder, slamming his fork onto the table. âFor Salazarâs sake, if you start getting all tragic and brooding about this, I will personally hex you. She likes you, Regulus. Enjoy it.â
Regulus sighed, though a small, reluctant smile played on his lips. Maybe, just maybe, Barty was right. For once, he allowed himself to believe that Y/N truly wanted to be with him.
Evan chuckled, leaning forward. âYou should see yourself right now. Itâs like watching a lovesick puppy.â
âI am not lovesick,â Regulus retorted, but his voice lacked conviction.
âYou so are,â Pandora teased, nudging his arm. âAnd itâs sweet. Honestly, I think Y/N would be surprised if she knew how much you admired her.â
Regulus tensed at the thought. âYou donât think she thinks itâs a joke, do you?â
Evan sighed. âMate, if she thought it was a joke, she wouldnât have said yes. Stop doubting everything and enjoy the moment. This isnât a strategy meeting; itâs a date.â
Regulus frowned, chewing over Evanâs words. It was trueâY/N had said yes. That had to mean something. Still, the fear of somehow messing everything up gnawed at him. But as he glanced at her again, watching the way she absentmindedly flipped through the pages of a book with a soft, distant look in her eyes, he felt a strange sense of peace settle over him.
Perhaps, for once, things were exactly as they were meant to be.
-
Hogsmeade Day had arrived, and Y/N stood in front of her mirror, adjusting the fabric of her oversized sweatshirt. It was comfortable, long enough to cover her hips, draping over her arms in a way that made her feel hidden. Paired with a flowing, ankle-length skirt, it was the perfect outfitânot too tight, not too revealing. Just safe.
She smoothed her hands over the fabric, exhaling shakily. No matter what she wore, she still saw the same girl in the mirror. The same girl with round cheeks, thick arms, a body that felt too large for the world she lived in. A girl who had spent years believing that no one could ever look at her the way she looked at them.
And yet⊠Regulus had asked her out.
It still didnât make sense. She had replayed the moment in her mind countless times, trying to find some hidden joke in his voice, some sign that it wasnât real. But there was none. He had looked at her with a certainty that she couldnât comprehend.
She swallowed hard and turned away from the mirror. If this was all some cruel game, she wasnât sure she could handle it. But if it was real⊠if there was even the smallest chance that Regulus Black wanted to spend time with her, she would let herself have this day. Just this one.
-
Taking a deep breath, Y/N stepped out of the castle, her fingers gripping the edges of her sleeves. The cold air nipped at her cheeks as she made her way toward the entrance gates, her heart hammering in her chest. What if he changed his mind? What if he took one look at her and regretted asking her?
Her thoughts were silenced the moment she spotted him.
Regulus stood just outside, hands tucked into the pockets of his coat, his sharp, elegant features softened by the small, cheeky smile on his lips. His grey eyes lit up the second they landed on her, and for a moment, Y/N forgot how to breathe.
âThere you are,â he said, his voice warm. âFor a second, I thought you stood me up.â
Y/N swallowed, hugging herself slightly. âI⊠I wouldnât do that.â
Regulus tilted his head, studying her for a moment before stepping closer. âYou look beautiful.â
A rush of warmth flooded her face, and she instinctively glanced away, refusing to believe he meant it. âYou donât have to say that.â
His brows knitted together in confusion before something in his expression shiftedâgentle, yet firm. âI say what I mean.â
At the Three Broomsticks, the air hummed with chatter and the occasional clink of glasses. The scent of warm butterbeer and cinnamon lingered, wrapping them in a cocoon of comfort against the autumn chill outside. Y/N curled her fingers around the warm tankard, letting the heat seep into her skin. She took a small sip, savoring the sweetness and spice as she glanced at Regulus, whose own fingers brushed against hers more than once as they rested on the table.
Neither pulled away.
âI still donât understand how you find Quidditch interesting,â Y/N teased, tilting her head as she took another sip. âItâs just people chasing a ball.â
Regulus gasped, placing a hand over his heart as though she had personally insulted his family name. âChasing a ball? Y/N, Quidditch is an art.â
She arched a skeptical brow, barely holding back a laugh. âAn art of nearly falling to your death?â
He smirked, eyes gleaming with amusement. âExactly.â
She huffed a laugh, shaking her head before reaching for the book beside her. Its spine was new, the scent of parchment and ink still fresh. She flipped through the pages with reverence, her fingers gliding over the words as if they held something sacred. âThis, though,â she murmured, âthis is art. The way the author describes magic, itâs beautiful.â
Regulus leaned in slightly, his interest piqued. âRead me your favorite passage.â
She hesitated, her lips pressing together before she exhaled softly. With a knowing smile, she turned to a well-worn page and began reading aloud, her voice weaving through the air with quiet passion.
Regulus watched her, utterly transfixed. He wasnât certain if it was the words she spoke or the way she spoke themâher voice dipping with emotion, her fingers lightly tracing the lines, her expression soft with admiration. Either way, he found himself hanging onto every syllable like she was telling the most fascinating story in the world.
When she finally closed the book, she glanced up at him. âYouâre staring.â
A slow, lazy smile curled on his lips. âYou make it hard not to.â
A light blush crept up her neck, and she quickly busied herself with taking another sip of butterbeer. âFlattery will get you nowhere, Black.â
âOh, I donât know,â he mused, twirling his tankard in his hands. âI think itâs working just fine.â
They lingered for a while longer, talking about books, Quidditch, and anything in between. The fire crackled in the hearth, casting flickering shadows along the wooden beams, but eventually, the golden sky outside signaled that the afternoon had begun to fade. Reluctantly, they stepped out into the crisp breeze rolling through the village.
Without hesitation, Regulus shrugged off his coat and draped it over her shoulders. The fabric was warm, carrying the faint scent of cologne and something distinctly him. Y/N blinked at him, startled by the effortless gesture.
âCan I see you again after this?â he asked, hands slipping into his pockets.
She tilted her head, studying him. âYou⊠want to?â
He chuckled, shaking his head fondly. âMore than anything.â

The air at Platform 9Ÿ buzzed with excitement, the steam from the Hogwarts Express curling around the crowd in wisps of white. The familiar sounds of chatter, last-minute reminders, and tearful goodbyes filled the air.
Harry Potter-Black stood with his arms crossed, a nostalgic smile playing on his lips as he watched the next generation of witches and wizards prepare to leave for Hogwarts. Beside him, his younger sister, Danny Lestrange nĂ©e Black, adjusted the collar of her sonâs robes with sharp precision.
âCass, stop fidgeting,â she muttered, fixing her daughter with a pointed look.
Cassiopeia Lestrange, her dark curls a perfect blend of both parents, huffed dramatically. âI just donât want to look messy, Mum.â
âYouâre going to Hogwarts, not the Wizengamot,â Danny deadpanned, before turning to her son. âArcturus, you excited?â
Arcturus Lestrange, slightly more reserved than his twin, nodded. âYeah⊠I think so. But what if Iâm not in Slytherin?â
Danny softened slightly, kneeling so she was at eye level with him. âThen you wonât be in Slytherin. It doesnât matter where you end up. Youâre still a Lestrangeâ" she ignored Harryâs amused cough at that, "âand more importantly, youâre our son. So wherever you go, youâll be great.â
Arcturus brightened a little.
Harry, watching the exchange, smirked. âYou sound just like Baba.â
Danny scoffed. âOf course I do.â
Ginny, standing beside Harry, rolled her eyes. âAnd you sound just like Y/N. All sharp words but way too soft on the inside.â
Harry huffed. âI do not.â
Danny and Ginny exchanged a knowing look.
A tug on his sleeve made Harry glance down. His eldest child, a boy with messy black hair and warm brown eyes, grinned up at him.
âDad, tell me again about the first time you went to Hogwarts?â
Harry chuckled and ruffled his sonâs hair. âYou ever hear of a troll in the dungeons on your first night?â
James Sirius Potter gasped, while Cassiopeia and Arcturus leaned in, wide-eyed.
Danny rolled her eyes. âDonât scare them.â
âIâm not scaring them. Iâm preparing them,â Harry said with mock seriousness.
âMore like giving them ideas,â Ginny muttered, shaking her head.
The train whistle blew, signaling the final boarding call.
Danny sighed, her expression softening as she looked at her twins. âAlright, go on then.â
Cassiopeia and Arcturus hesitated, glancing between their parents.
âGo,â Adrian said, gently nudging them forward. âYouâre going to be late.â
Finally, the twins ran off, dragging their trunks behind them.
James Sirius looked up at his parents. âI have to go too, right?â
Harry swallowed thickly, nodding. âYeah, kiddo. You do.â
Jamesâs grin wobbled just slightly, and Harry knelt, gripping his sonâs shoulders. âListen to me. Youâre going to have the best time. Youâve got your cousins, and youâre James Sirius Potter. Youâve got troublemaker written all over you.â
James smirked. âLike you?â
Harry laughed. âExactly.â
Ginny leaned down, pressing a kiss to Jamesâs forehead. âBe good. Write to us.â
James groaned. âMumâŠâ
âI mean it, James,â she said firmly, though her eyes were warm.
He nodded before hugging her quickly. âOkay, okay.â
With a final grin, James sprinted toward the train.
Cassiopeia and Arcturus stuck their heads out of the window, waving wildly.
âWrite to us!â Danny called.
âAnd donât get into too much trouble!â Harry added.
Cassiopeia just grinned. âNo promises!â
Danny groaned. âOh, Merlin, sheâs just like you.â
Harry smirked. âAnd Arcturus is just like you. Broody and dramatic.â
Danny rolled her eyes before glancing at her older brother. âThink theyâll be as much trouble as us?â
Harry smirked. âAbsolutely.â
Danny shook her head, but her lips twitched into a smile as the train disappeared into the horizon.
Standing there, side by side, Harry and Danny realized something.
They had survived a war. They had lost people they loved. They had fought for everything they had.
And now, as they stood on Platform 9Ÿ, watching their children set off on their own journey, they knewâ
The next generation would carry on the legacy.
Regulus let out a long, slow breath as the Hogwarts Express disappeared from sight, the last wisps of steam curling into the sky. He glanced over at Y/N, who was standing beside him, an unreadable expression on her face.
ââŠWe did it,â Y/N finally murmured.
Regulus nodded, rubbing his temple. âYes. Finally. After years of raising two children and their equally troublesome partners, theyâre all at Hogwarts.â
A beat of silence passed between them.
Then, in perfect unison, they turned to each other and blurted outâ
âWeâre alone.â
Y/N grabbed Regulusâs collar, eyes wide. âReg, weâre alone.â
Regulusâs lips parted in pure realization. âNo children. No late-night sneaking for cookies. No twin catastrophes. No Quidditch injuries. No Hazzy breaking things in the house.â
âNo one walking in on us when weâreââ
Regulus pressed a hand to her mouth, eyes darting to where Harry and Danny were still standing with Ginny and Adrian, their attention thankfully elsewhere. âShh, donât jinx it.â
Y/N grinned against his hand before pulling it away. âReg, do you know what this means?â
He tilted his head. âWe can have tea in peace?â
âYes, andââ
âWe can read without someone interrupting us?â
âThat too, butââ
âWe can sleep past six in the morning?â
Y/N groaned. âReg, I meant we can finally have a night alone.â
Regulus blinked.
Then, very seriously, he took Y/Nâs hands in his and whispered, âDarling, I love you more than life itself, but if we donât go home and take a nap first, I will pass out in this station.â
Y/N sighed dramatically, but her smirk betrayed her amusement. âFine, old man.â
Regulus narrowed his eyes. âThatâs rich, coming from someone whoââ
Before he could finish, a crack echoed behind them.
âOi, where are you two sneaking off to?â
They turned to see Sirius standing there, grinning like an absolute menace. Next to him was Remus, who was already shaking his head as if he knew what was coming.
Regulus groaned, pinching the bridge of his nose. âMerlin, no.â
Y/N sighed. âSirius, please tell me youâre not about to ruin the first peaceful moment weâve had in years.â
Sirius gasped mockingly. âRuin? Moi?â
Regulus turned on his heel. âIâm leaving. Goodbye.â
Y/N turned to follow him, only for Sirius to throw an arm around both of them. âNow, now, donât be hasty! What if I told you that Moony and I have a brilliant idea?â
Regulus deadpanned. âYour âbrilliant ideasâ landed me in detention for half my school career.â
Remus, ever the peacekeeper, cleared his throat. âWe thought, since youâre finally free of parental duties for the time being, weâd take you both out for a celebratory drink.â
Y/N hesitated, glancing at Regulus.
Regulus stared at them both. Then, after a long pause, he exhaled. âFine. One drink.â
Sirius whooped. âThatâs the spirit, little brother!â
Y/N smirked, looping her arm through Regulusâs. âAlright then. But if anyone interrupts our first actual night alone after this, I will commit crimes.â
Sirius grinned. âNow thatâs the Y/N I know.â
Regulus muttered under his breath, but Y/N caught the fond glint in his eye as they all walked off together.
Maybe theyâd get their peaceful night soon.
âŠHopefully.
For the first time in years, Regulus and Y/N found themselves sitting across from each other at a dimly lit, elegant restaurantâalone. No children, no interruptions, no impromptu crises requiring immediate parental intervention. Just them, a bottle of wine, and a table set for two.
Regulus exhaled, leaning back in his chair as he swirled the wine in his glass. âItâs almost unsettling, isnât it?â
Y/N smirked, taking a sip of her own. âThat weâre not breaking up sibling arguments or stopping the twins from attempting another âscientific experimentâ? Absolutely.â
Regulus huffed. âLast time, they nearly set my study on fire. I still donât know how they got their hands on Peruvian Instant Darkness Powder.â
Y/N grinned. âThey are our grandchildren.â
Regulus sighed, shaking his head. âUnfortunately.â
A comfortable silence settled between them as they enjoyed their meal. It was almost strange, remembering what it felt like to just beâwithout parenting, without work, without constant noise.
Regulus watched Y/N as she ate, the candlelight flickering against her face. âYou know,â he said, setting down his fork, âI forgot how nice it is to just sit and look at you.â
Y/N raised an eyebrow. âIâm in our house every day, Reg.â
âYes, but usually, Iâm dodging incoming Quidditch gear, confiscating enchanted objects, or ensuring that Hazzy and Dannyâs children donât turn the furniture into something alive.â He smirked. âYouâre a bit of a blur in the chaos.â
Y/N rolled her eyes, but her lips twitched into a smile. âWell, go on then. Stare all you want.â
Regulus took full advantage of the invitation, his gaze lingering on her with quiet appreciation. âYouâre just as breathtaking as the day I met you.â
Y/N felt warmth creep up her neck. âYou always were a dramatic bastard.â
âAnd yet, you married me.â
âTerrible life choice, really.â
Regulus smirked, lifting his glass. âTo terrible life choices, then.â
Y/N clinked her glass against his. âTo us.â
For a while, they simply enjoyed the moment. The peace. The feeling of being Regulus and Y/N instead of Baba and Mama.
Then, just as their dessert arrived, Regulus stiffened.
âWhat?â Y/N asked, confused.
Regulus narrowed his eyes toward the entrance.
There, just outside the restaurant, were Harry and Danny, peeking through the window with identical grins.
ââŠThey followed us,â Regulus muttered, looking personally betrayed.
Y/N groaned, dragging a hand down her face. âUnbelievable.â
Danny waved innocently. Harry gave a thumbs-up.
Regulus lifted his napkin and covered his face. âIâm pretending I donât see them.â
Y/N took a long sip of wine. âWe raised menaces.â
âYour fault.â
âYou married me.â
Regulus sighed, peeking over his napkin. Danny and Harry were still there. Watching. Grinning.
âWeâre locking the Floo when we get home,â Regulus mumbled.
Y/N smirked. âDeal.â

note: A Regulus and Harry moment hihi
The house felt quieter without Danny.
It wasnât something they ever said out loud, but they all felt it.
Y/N noticed it in the way Regulus lingered by the breakfast table, drinking his tea a little slower, his sharp eyes drifting toward Dannyâs usual seat. She noticed it in the way he took a few extra minutes in the morning to check the post as if expecting an owl from herâeven though theyâd just received one the day before.
Harry noticed it in the way the house felt less chaotic. No more exasperated sighs when he tried to rope Danny into one of his antics. No more cutting remarks that were both brilliant and scathing. No more of her curling up in the chair across from Baba, nose buried in a book far too advanced for her age.
Regulus would never admit it, of course. But Y/N caught the way he looked up expectantly every time the fireplace flared, just for a second, before masking it with that cool indifference heâd perfected years ago.
âSheâs only been gone a week, Baba,â Harry said one evening, arms crossed as he leaned against the doorway. âYou act like she moved across the world.â
Regulus, sitting in his usual chair, turned a page in his book without looking up. âI have no idea what youâre talking about.â
Harry smirked. âRight. And you totally didnât check for an owl three times today.â
Regulus flicked a glance toward Y/N, who was smirking into her tea. âI was checking for Ministry correspondence.â
âSure you were.â
Regulus exhaled through his nose, closing his book with a soft thud. âIs there a reason youâre standing there, or did you just come to irritate me?â
Harry shrugged. âMostly the latter.â
Y/N chuckled, setting down her cup. âYou two are hopeless.â
Regulus sighed, rubbing his temple. âIf this is what I have to deal with when Danny is gone, Iâll just send a Howler telling her to come home.â
Harry snorted. âSheâd ignore it. Or worse, sheâd send one back telling you to stop being dramatic.â
Regulus didnât argue, which meant he knew Harry was right.
It was strangeâthis new phase of life. Hogwarts had always been a part of their routine, but now, with only one child at home, the house felt just a little too still.
Y/N reached over, placing a hand on Regulusâs. âSheâs fine. And sheâll write again soon.â
Regulus hummed, squeezing her hand lightly before pulling away. âIâm aware.â
Harry smirked. âYou miss her.â
Regulus shot him a look. âShut up, Hazzy.â
Harryâs grin widened. âYou miss her so much.â
Regulus glared. Y/N just laughed, shaking her head.
The house was quieter. But theyâd adjust. They always did.
-
It was strangeâfalling back into a routine that hadnât existed in over a decade.
With Danny at Hogwarts, the house felt smaller in a way. Not physically, of course, but something about it brought them back to the days when it was just the three of themâRegulus, Y/N, and Harry.
So, they decided to lean into it.
One evening, Harry came home from work at Chuddley Cannons, stretching his arms over his head. "It's weird without her here," he admitted, dropping into his usual seat at the dining table.
Y/N chuckled, setting down the plates. "You mean it's quieter?"
"Exactly," Harry grinned. "No broody six-year-old correcting my spelling or outdueling me in chess."
Regulus raised an eyebrow, taking a sip of his tea. "She hasn't been six in quite some time, Harry."
"Yeah, but she still acts like she is sometimes. Always reading, always judging meâ"
"Wonder where she got that from," Y/N muttered, smirking at her husband.
Regulus scoffed. "I do not judge."
Harry and Y/N both gave him a look.
Regulus rolled his eyes. "Fine. Perhaps occasionally."
That night, it was just the three of them for dinnerâlike it had been all those years ago. It didnât take long for them to slip into old habits.
Regulus and Y/N sat beside each other, discussing their respective daysâher work at Hogwarts, his at the Ministry. Harry, ever the troublemaker, stirred his soup absentmindedly before blurting, âRemember when I used to sit on the table instead of a chair?â
Y/N groaned. âDonât remind me.â
Regulus pinched the bridge of his nose. âYou were a menace.â
Harry smirked. âStill am.â
They spent the rest of the evening reminiscingâabout the time Harry had insisted on flying inside the house and knocked over an entire bookshelf; about the time Regulus had tried to teach him etiquette, only for him to use a soup spoon to launch peas across the dining room; about the nights when Y/N would return home from Hogwarts, exhausted but still determined to tuck Harry in.
After dinner, Regulus and Y/N sat by the fireplace, Harry sprawled across the floor like he was still a teenager instead of a grown man.
"You know," Y/N mused, watching the flames flicker, "this is nice."
Regulus glanced at her. "What is?"
"Just... us. Like this. It reminds me of when Harry was little."
Harry, lying on his back with his arms crossed behind his head, smirked. "So you do miss me being a little kid."
Y/N rolled her eyes. "I miss you being manageable."
Regulus chuckled. "He was never manageable."
Harry grinned. "True."
They sat there for a long time, basking in the warmth of nostalgia. The house may have felt quieter, but it didnât feel empty. cv
Because no matter how much things changed, they were still them. And that was enough.
It was strangeâfalling back into a routine that hadnât existed in over a decade.
With Danny at Hogwarts, the house felt quieter. Not empty, just⊠different.
Harry, now a professional Quidditch player, had been staying over for the week while he had a short break between matches. It almost felt like old timesâjust the three of them, like it had been before Danny was born.
Y/N leaned against the kitchen counter, watching as Regulus sat at the dining table reading the Daily Prophet, his usual cup of tea in hand. Across from him, Harry was stretching out his sore muscles, rolling his shoulder as he groaned.
"Merlin, I feel ancient."
"Youâre twenty," Regulus said flatly, not looking up from his paper.
"Exactly. Ancient."
Y/N smirked, setting plates down on the table. "Try being in your forties and teaching a bunch of teenagers Ancient Runes every day. Then weâll talk."
Harry grinned, rubbing the back of his neck. "You love it."
"Most days." She sat beside Regulus, nudging his arm. "And you? Still terrorizing the poor souls at the Ministry?"
Regulus didnât dignify that with a response, merely taking another sip of his tea.
Dinner felt like stepping into the past, their usual banter slipping back into place effortlessly.
"Remember when I used to run around the house with my toy broomstick, knocking things over?" Harry mused as he dug into his meal.
Regulus exhaled sharply, setting down his fork. "You were a menace. Nearly took my eye out when you were six."
Y/N laughed. "Oh, and that one time you crashed into the Christmas treeâ"
"That was one time!" Harry defended himself.
Regulus smirked, crossing his arms. "And then you joined professional Quidditch. Clearly, you learned your lesson."
Harry grinned. "What can I say? I'm consistent."
After dinner, they moved to the living room, the fire crackling softly in the hearth. Harry sprawled across the couch like he owned the place, tossing a Quaffle into the air absentmindedly. Y/N curled up in her usual spot, while Regulus sat beside her, a book in his lap that he had no real intention of reading.
"You know," Y/N said after a moment, watching the fire, "this feels nice."
Regulus turned to her. "What does?"
"Just us. Like this. It reminds me of when Harry was little."
Harry smirked. "So you do miss me being small."
"I miss you being manageable," Y/N corrected with a roll of her eyes.
Regulus chuckled. "You were never manageable."
Harry tossed the Quaffle in the air again, catching it easily. "True."
The night stretched on, filled with warm conversation and laughter. It wasnât often that Harry had time to stay home like this, and even though things had changed over the years, some things never would.
They were still them. And that was enough.
However, the nightmares started again.
Flashes of green light. Screams that were cut short. Rubble and fire. The feeling of losing people, of not being enough.
Harry woke up with a sharp gasp, his breath coming in ragged, uneven bursts. His chest ached like heâd run a marathon, and the darkness of his childhood bedroom felt suffocating. He pressed the heels of his hands against his eyes, willing the images away.
He wasnât at Hogwarts. He wasnât in the war. He was home. Safe.
But his body didnât believe it.
A knock at the door made him flinch. He didnât answer, but the door creaked open anyway, the hallway light casting a long shadow as Regulus stepped inside.
"Another one?" Regulus's voice was quiet, steady.
Harry exhaled shakily and nodded. He didnât need to explain. Regulus had always known.
Without a word, Regulus crossed the room and sat on the edge of the bed. It reminded Harry of when he was littleâwhen he would have nightmares about his parents, about loud thunder, about monsters under the bed. Regulus would always be there, brushing his hair back, sitting with him in the dark until he calmed down.
Harry hated that he still needed this. After everything, he still felt like that scared little boy in the dark.
âI should be over this by now,â Harry muttered, his voice thick.
Regulus let out a quiet breath, the ghost of a sigh. âYou donât just âget overâ something like war, Harry.â
There was a moment of silence before Regulus reached out, hesitating for only a second before resting a hand on Harryâs head, running his fingers through the messy black strands. The touch was grounding, familiar.
"You used to do this when I was a kid," Harry said quietly.
"You used to calm down when I did," Regulus replied simply.
Harry let his eyes drift shut, focusing on the steady motion, the way it slowed his breathing. The memories of battle still lurked in the corners of his mind, but they felt a little further away now. Less sharp.
They sat in silence for a while.
Eventually, Regulus spoke again, his voice softer. "You are not weak for feeling this way, Harry."
Harry swallowed his throat tight. "I just... I feel like I shouldn'tâlike I should be moving on."
"You are moving on," Regulus said. "But healing isnât the same as forgetting."
Harry took a shaky breath. He wanted to believe that.
Regulus stayed with him until his breathing evened out again until the tension in his shoulders finally eased.
Just like when he was a child, Regulus didn't leave until Harry was asleep.

Y/N could feel the weight of the day pressing down on her shoulders as she sat curled up on the windowsill, her arms wrapped tightly around her knees. The late afternoon sunlight streamed through the glass, casting golden hues across the room, but she hardly noticed. Her mind was consumed by the gnawing ache in her stomach, the relentless voice whispering cruel things in the back of her mind.
She had managed to avoid eating all day. It wasnât supposed to be this hard. She had promised Regulus she was trying. She wanted to try. But today, the self-doubt had crept in like a storm cloud, and suddenly, the idea of food felt unbearable again.
Her struggles with anorexia had begun years ago, slowly and insidiously. What had started as a desire for control in a chaotic world had spiraled into something far darker. It had taken root in her thoughts, dictating her every decision. Every bite felt like a battle, every meal a war she was losing. She had pushed people away, convinced that nobody could understand the suffocating fear that came with eating.
And then, she had met Regulus.
They had crossed paths in the most unexpected wayâa chance encounter in the Hogwarts library. She had been tucked away in a quiet corner, poring over a book she wasnât really reading, when he had sat down across from her. At first, she had been wary. He had a reputation, a certain air of cold detachment that made people keep their distance. But there was something about the way he looked at her, something unspoken but deeply understanding.
Slowly, he had become a presence in her life. He never pried, never forced her to talk, but he had a way of making her feel seen. With him, she didnât have to pretend to be okay. And somehow, despite the walls she had built, he had slipped through the cracks, offering her the quiet support she hadnât realized she needed.
The door creaked open, and soft footsteps padded across the floor. She didnât have to look up to know it was him.
âY/N?â Regulusâ voice was gentle, but there was an edge of concern to it. He crouched down beside her, resting a hand lightly on her arm. âI havenât seen you all day.â
She hesitated, then sighed. âI just⊠I needed to be alone.â
Regulus exhaled quietly, his thumb tracing soothing circles over her skin. He didnât push. He never did. But she knew he saw right through her, past the carefully constructed walls and the forced half-smiles.
After a few moments of silence, he reached into his pocket and pulled out a small, wrapped piece of chocolate. He placed it in her palm without a word.
Y/N stared at it, her fingers curling around the wrapper. âRegulus, I canâtââ
âYou can.â His voice was firm but kind. âI know itâs hard. But you need to eat something. Just a little.â
Tears burned at the back of her eyes. The idea of eatingâeven something as small as thisâfelt impossible. But then she looked at him, at the quiet determination in his grey eyes, the way his fingers curled around hers, grounding her. He wasnât angry. He wasnât frustrated. He was just here.
With a shaky breath, she unwrapped the chocolate and broke off a tiny piece, placing it hesitantly in her mouth. The sweetness melted against her tongue, and though the guilt threatened to crash over her like a wave, Regulus was there, steady and unwavering.
âThere you go,â he murmured. He brushed a strand of hair behind her ear. âIâm proud of you.â
A tear slipped down her cheek, and he caught it with his thumb, pulling her into his arms. She buried her face in his shoulder, his scentâfamiliar and warmâoffering a comfort she hadnât realized she needed so desperately.
âI donât want to feel like this forever,â she admitted in a whisper.
Regulus tightened his hold on her, his lips pressing a soft kiss against her temple. âYou wonât,â he promised.Â
âIâll be with you every step of the way.â

Y/N stood in front of the mirror in her dormitory, adjusting the hem of her robes as she stared at her reflection. Her hands unconsciously smoothed over the fabric, trying to hide the curves she had never quite learned to love. No matter how often she wanted to remind herself that beauty wasnât defined by a single body type, the lingering insecurities whispered otherwise.
She turned slightly, frowning at her side profile. She envied the girls who seemed effortlessly graceful, the ones whose uniforms fit just right, whose confidence seemed so natural. She pulled at the fabric of her robes as if that would somehow change the way she looked, but nothing ever did. With a quiet sigh, she let her hands drop and turned away from the mirror, shaking off the nagging thoughts. It didnât matter. It wasnât like anyone was paying attention to her, least of all Regulus Black.
Still, as she made her way down to the Great Hall, her heart clenched at the thought of him, impossibly elegant and untouchable.
Y/N sat at the Ravenclaw table, absently poking at her breakfast as she half-listened to her housemates discussing their plans for the upcoming Hogsmeade weekend. It wasnât as if she had any plans of her ownâshe rarely did. While she loved the idea of going, wandering through the cobbled streets with someone special, she knew that particular dream was unattainable.
Because that someone special was Regulus Black.
And Regulus Black was impossibly out of reach.
She had harbored a deep, quiet crush on the Slytherin for years. He was everything she was notâelegant, poised, respected. Meanwhile, she was the chubby Ravenclaw who kept to herself, more at home in the library than at social gatherings. She was always hyperaware of her appearance, tugging at the edges of her robes or crossing her arms over her stomach, trying to take up less space. The idea of him ever noticing her was laughable, and yet, she couldnât stop herself from stealing glances at him across the Great Hall, allowing her mind to entertain impossible daydreams.
Little did she know that, at that very moment, Regulus Black was sitting at the Slytherin table, going on and on about her.
âSheâs brilliant,â Regulus said, absently twirling his spoon in his porridge. âI saw her answering Slughornâs question yesterday before he even finished asking it. And she was right. Of course, she was right. She always is.â
Barty groaned, dropping his head onto the table. âMerlin, not again.â
Evan rolled his eyes. âYouâve been talking about Y/N for weeks. Either do something about it or shut up.â
Pandora, always the most patient of the group, smiled encouragingly. âYou should ask her to Hogsmeade, Regulus. She doesnât seem to have any plans.â
Regulus hesitated, suddenly feeling very exposed. âShe wouldnât say yes.â
âHow would you know?â Evan asked, exasperated. âItâs not like youâve tried.â
âSheâs never shown any interest in me,â Regulus admitted, suddenly feeling foolish for all the time heâd spent admiring her from a distance. âSheâs intelligent, kind, beautifulâwhy would she waste her time on me?â
Barty nearly choked on his pumpkin juice. âYou are Regulus Black. You have people practically lining up for the chance to go to Hogsmeade with you. Stop being an idiot and just ask her.â
Regulus pursed his lips. The idea of being rejected by Y/N was enough to make his stomach twist, but his friendsâ words lingered in his mind. Maybe⊠maybe they were right.
Y/N sat alone in the courtyard, bundled in her robes as she read a book, the crisp autumn air nipping at her cheeks. The sun was starting to dip lower in the sky, and most students had already retreated indoors, but she found the quiet comforting. It was easier to exist in the world of books than in reality where she was invisible to the person she liked most.
She was so lost in her reading that she didnât hear footsteps approaching until a shadow fell over her pages. Glancing up, she nearly dropped her book when she saw Regulus Black standing before her, hands in his pockets, looking uncharacteristically hesitant.
Her heart leaped into her throat. âOh. Umâhi?â
Regulus cleared his throat, shifting to his feet. âHi.â
An awkward silence stretched between them, and Y/N struggled to understand what was happening. Was he lost? Did he need help with something? Had she done something wrong?
âIââ Regulus exhaled sharply, looking more nervous than sheâd ever seen him. âWould you like to go to Hogsmeade with me this weekend?â
Y/N blinked, sure she had misheard him. âWhat?â
Regulusâ jaw tightened as if he were bracing for impact. âWould you like to go to Hogsmeade with me?â
Her mind reeled. This had to be a joke, some kind of cruel prank. There was no way heâRegulus Blackâwas asking her out. Her stomach twisted with familiar self-doubt.
âMe?â she asked, voice barely above a whisper. âAre you sure?â
Regulus frowned slightly. âYes. Why wouldnât I be?â
She swallowed, shifting uncomfortably. âI just⊠I donât really seem like your type.â
Regulusâ gaze softened as he took a step closer. âYouâre exactly my type.â
Y/N hesitated for a moment, then nodded, a small smile forming on her lips. âIâd like that.â
Relief washed over Regulusâ face, and for the first time, he allowed himself to truly smile at her. âGood.â
As he walked away, promising to meet her in the entrance hall on Saturday, Y/N watched him go, her heart thudding wildly in her chest.
Maybe, just maybe, she had been wrong about being out of his reach.
The Potter-Black's fight in the Battle of Hogwarts.

The air crackled with curses and screams, the ground trembling beneath every explosion. Smoke stung Harry's eyes as he ducked behind a crumbling stone pillar, his chest heaving. His wand hand was steady, but his heart was racing. Across the battlefield, Death Eaters swarmed like shadows, their masks faceless and unforgiving.
âProtego!â Harry shouted, deflecting a curse aimed at Neville. He spun, firing off a Stupefy toward a masked figure. The spell hit true, and the Death Eater crumpled. He was about to move again when something caught his eye through the smoke.
Thereâat the heart of the chaosâwere his parents.
Y/N and Regulus stood side by side, backs to each other, fighting with the synchronized precision of two people who had spent years learning each otherâs rhythms. Y/Nâs wand slashed through the air as fiery runes lit up the darkness, forming ancient symbols that struck down three Death Eaters in a single sweep. Regulus was a blur of defensive magic, shields shimmering like a protective cocoon around his wife as he deflected curses with ruthless efficiency.
âCome on, you bastards!â Y/N snarled, hurling a Blasting Curse that shattered a marble column, toppling Death Eaters beneath the debris.
Regulus cast a cutting hex, sending another enemy sprawling. His eyes flicked up for the briefest secondâand locked with Harryâs across the battlefield.
The look said everything: Stay safe. Stay alive.
Harry gave a grim nod and turned back into the fray. But even as he fought, the image of his parentsâunbreakable, untouchableâstayed with him.
Not far away, Danny, now 15, stood with her back to the Great Hallâs shattered entrance. Her hair was tangled, and her lip was bleeding. Her wand hand was firm, though, her fatherâs lessons echoing in her mind.
âStay grounded, little star. Predict their movements. Strike hard. Strike smart.â
The Death Eater before her sneered beneath his mask. âLook at you. A little girl playing hero.â
Dannyâs grip tightened. âAvia Ignis!â she shouted.
Golden, bird-shaped flames shot from her wand, screeching as they slammed into his shield. The Death Eater staggered. Danny didnât hesitate. âExpelliarmus!â
The manâs wand flew from his grasp, and Danny followed with a swift âStupefy.â He collapsed in a heap.
Breathing heavily, she turnedâjust in time to see the ceiling above her crack. Massive chunks of stone and timber groaned as they began to fall.
Her eyes widened.
Run.
She bolted toward the corridor, sprinting with all her strength as the ceiling collapsed behind her. The noise was deafening. A jagged block clipped her shoulder, sending her sprawling. She scrambled to her feet, heart hammering. A deafening crack sounded above her, andâ
The world turned to darkness.
Hours later, the battle was over. The Dark Lord was gone, his forces scattered or captured. But Hogwarts lay in ruins, and the losses were staggering.
Y/N stood amidst the rubble, her hands trembling as she gripped Regulusâs arm. Her eyes were wild, scanning the battlefield for any sign of their daughter.
âShe was there, Reg,â Y/N gasped. âNear the Great Hall. I saw her fighting.â
Regulus, pale and bloodied, pulled her into his arms. âWeâll find her.â His voice cracked.
Harry appeared beside them, face streaked with dirt and ash. âIâll help look.â
The three of them moved toward the hall, stepping over shattered stone and fallen bodies. Y/Nâs breaths came faster with each step. Her eyes landed on a collapsed archway, a familiar child-sized wand lying just beyond the rubble.
âNo,â she whispered. Her knees gave out, and she collapsed with a broken sob. âNo, no, no.â
Regulus knelt beside her, pulling her into his chest even as his own shoulders shook. Harry stood frozen, unable to look away from the wand.
The silence was suffocating.
And thenâ
There was a faint shift beneath the rubble.
A small hand, scraped and bloodied, pushed through the stones.
Harry lunged forward, yanking rocks away. âDanny! Danny, weâre here!â
The debris shifted further, and with a low groan, Danica emerged. Her curls were matted with dust, her face streaked with grime, but her eyes were bright and alive.
âMama?â she croaked.
Y/N scrambled to her knees, pulling Danny into a crushing embrace. âOh, my babyâmy baby.â Tears streamed down her cheeks as she rocked her daughter back and forth.
Regulus dropped beside them, cupping Dannyâs face. âYouâre okay, starshine. Youâre okay.â
Dannyâs lips quirked into a wobbly smile. âTold you I was good at dueling, Baba.â
Harry barked out a watery laugh and ruffled her hair. âYeah, Hazzyâs proud of you, squirt.â
Danny leaned against Y/Nâs chest, eyes fluttering closed. âIâm sleepy,â she mumbled.
âThatâs okay,â Y/N whispered, kissing the crown of her head. âRest, sweetheart. Weâve got you.â
As the first light of dawn broke through the shattered ceiling, the Potter-Black family sat together amidst the ruinsâbruised, battered, but whole.
