[Voluxius CP, Bad Ending]
In the height of summer in 1971, eighteen-year-old Lucius Malfoy met twenty-seven-year-old Ministry of Magic rising star Tom Riddle at his family estate. A probing game that began with curiosity flared into irresistible passion in a damp secret room, amid the shadows of Knockturn Alley, and beneath the stars by a lake at midnight.
