BLACKBOURNE: Book I of the House of Black Chronicles

by TrueMorrigan

Double, double, toil and trouble... In which the Most Noble and Ancient House rises from the rubble, and a young witch with a name as dark as her demons meets someone as bright as the stars. {Book I of the House of Black Chronicles, follows a darker version of the Harry Potter Franchise, slightly AU- No Weasleys were harmed in the making of this fanfiction}

1. Preface

I wasn't sure when we first met.

This was an ominous notion that often frightened me in the late hourse of the night when all manner of terrible thought tended to strike. I wasn't sure when we first met, and I did not know how long you had watched me for; if it were for all my life, or just the short, scattered moments you allowed me to be privy to your existence. I did not know when we had first met, and I did not know if you had always been there…

A part of my soul long before I knew to keep you out.
