Slytherin's Hidden Refuge
Summary
When Avaluna’s name erupted from the Goblet of Fire, her world shattered. Whispers became accusations, trust crumbled into betrayal. Unable to bear their judgment, she fled—to the only place that had ever been hers.The Chamber of Secrets welcomed her with its cold embrace. Wandering its forgotten corridors, she discovered an ancient bedchamber and a library brimming with dust-laden secrets. Among the tomes, one called to her—Magic. But it was Salazar Slytherin’s journals that truly ensnared her.Page after page, he whispered across time of lost magic and buried truths. One entry stood apart-a ritual, a soul preserved, a name waiting to be spoken. A serpentine ring holding a power only his heir could claim.Cedric was dead. Voldemort had returned. She was alone.Desperation guided her hands as she traced the glowing runes. Blood dripped, magic surged, the chamber trembled. A pulse of energy carved through the silence. Light flashed, shadows writhed—then stillness.And then he was there.Salazar Slytherin.Emerald eyes met hers, piercing and knowing. The past had answered her call. Nothing would ever be the same.
Note
Hello everyone!This is my first time using AO3, whether as a writer or a reader. I’ve only ever used Wattpad, where I originally posted this book. One of my friends suggested I share it here as well, and honestly, I only learned about AO3 from her—so I’m a total novice!The book I’m posting is a Female Harry Potter x Salazar Slytherin pairing. This idea also came from my friend during one of our discussions about relationships in the HP universe, so all credit goes to her for inspiring this pairing!I don’t have a beta reader, and this hasn’t been thoroughly proofread since it was written for fun. My friend has pointed out some corrections, which I’ve already made, but if you find any grammar or spelling mistakes, please don’t mind and feel free to comment so I can fix them!This book is already published and completed on my Wattpad account: Aisha_1013, so if you come across it there, know that it’s me.Hope you enjoy reading! 💙Love,Aisha

A/N

Hello, readers!

I'm thrilled to share my very first published story with all of you! This is a short tale—either a two-shot or three-shot—featuring a female version of Harry Potter paired with Salazar Slytherin. I want to make it clear upfront that I don't own Harry Potter or its universe; all rights belong to J.K. Rowling. This story is simply my creative take inspired by the world she built.

You'll find elements of traditional British customs in the narrative, which might feel a bit old-fashioned or even backward to some readers. The story also contains themes of killing, blood, and gore—though not excessively. While the story may involve some time skips to move the plot along, I've done my best to keep it coherent so you can fully understand and enjoy the characters, plot, and world-building.

As this is my first time publishing a story (though I've had other drafts in the past that I never shared), I truly hope you enjoy it. I'm open to constructive criticism, and I'd love to hear your thoughts to improve my craft. However, I kindly ask that you refrain from leaving hateful comments—I'm putting a lot of heart into this, and such comments will be removed.

Thank you for giving my story a chance. Your support means the world to me!

Yours,

Aisha

A/N 2: As I continued writing, I realized that including elements of traditional British customs, wizarding traditions, and etiquette would make the story much longer than I initially planned. To avoid overstretching, I've decided to explore these topics in a separate book. This new project will delve into wizarding history, culture, and manners in detail. I hope you'll look forward to it!

A/N 3: What began as a simple three-shot story has now expanded into a four-chapter journey. As I delved deeper into Avaluna's fifth year, I found myself adding more details than originally planned. I hope this expansion enriches the narrative and brings you even closer to her world. Your support and patience mean so much to me. Thank you for reading! 🌟
