Summary
Gluttony knows no end. This, Tom has always understood.
Since boyhood, hunger has followed him like a constant gnawing, a hollowed ache beneath the ribs. He has yearned for so many things: the Terry’s chocolate oranges clutched in the hands of children with mothers; the pale wafers pressed against his tongue during Mass; the blood drawn from Billy Stubbs’ rabbit, metallic and warm and power-affirming.
And yet—
Nothing has ever scorched through him like this.In which Tom Riddle finds himself increasingly afflicted by a most inconvenient obsession: Harry Evans.

Summary
After a bout of accidental magic when Harry is six, Vernon goes too far. When Harry wakes up, he is gravely wounded and more than fifty years in the past in another world. After some shuffling, Harry ends up at Wool's. There, he meets Tom Riddle, his mysterious roommate, eventual best friend, and the love of his life.
Inspired by a doctor he meets in the past, Harry is determined to go into medicine and protect other children like himself and Tom. Tom has his own dream of becoming Prime Minister. The boys quickly become inseparable and are determined to help each other down their paths to build a life together.
He wanted Harry. He had never coveted anyone this much.
Tom understood now that some part of him had never given up on having a… friend. Someone who understood him more than anyone else. Someone who would always take his side.
In a flash, he knew he would do anything to have Harry Faye’s loyalty.

Summary
One decision changes the course of history and fate of the wizarding world, and Slytherin Dynasty rule over the world. The Magical and Muggle worlds brought together by the power of Emperor Thomas Slytherin; once a mere boy, now the most powerful person there ever was. Thomas has it all; the world under his iron fist, immortality and power. But inside the Imperial Palace, his life is dull and monotonous. Until, it isn’t.
---
Hadrian Potter-Black, the heir of two Ancient Houses, is a prodigy and his mother’s son. He too has it all, but then he deliberately enters to become the Emperor’s concubine; one of his many concubines. What are the chances he will even catch the Emperor’s attention? Very little, they tell him, but Hadrian has magical prowess and ambition dripping through his bones. Though he didn’t expect this.
The Emperor’s unbidden attention; all for him.

Summary
The boy was a swath of golden light, a blaze of fury burnished with purity—too bright, too volatile for the Dark Lord to grasp without twisting it into something tainted. He did not know how to hold what was not his, how to touch something without breaking it first. His hands, always the harbingers of ruin, knew only rot. But it mattered little to him; a treasure, shattered or whole, was still a thing to possess.
Or, in which the prophecy is undone, and Harry Potter finds a locket in the shadows of 12 Grimmauld Place.
