[Harry Potter] Oath of the Thornheart

The Thorned Vow

-- When the thorned rose of Gryffindor winds around the silver serpent of Slytherin.

"Ancient thorn magic lies hidden in her blood, while beneath his arrogance is a vulnerability no one knows about."

Aileen Lovella is a red-haired girl who grew up in the Muggle world. At eleven, she discovers that her blood can turn into thorns: an ancient and dangerous magic that makes Pure-blood wizards wary of her, but also becomes her sharpest weapon.

Gryffindor x Slytherin. She calls him an "ill-mannered young master," and he sneers that she is a "Mudblood freak." But when her thorns save him from danger, and he reaches out to her in the darkness, those sharp barbs become the tenderest bond between them.

"You hate me?"

"Obviously."

"But your thorns just protected me."

Note: The Thorn Curse and thorn magic in this story are my own inventions. This kind of magic does not exist in the original series. It may come up many times because it is one of the story's key elements.

This is a female-led story told from Aileen Lovella's perspective as she takes part in life at Hogwarts. As a Gryffindor, she gets along well with the trio, but she won't steal their spotlight. Draco will be written as he is in the original series, along with some of my own interpretation of the character. I won't whitewash him or portray him unfairly.

The story focuses on everyday life. The heroine has her own storyline, which unfolds alongside the original plot. The story follows the original and is built around its events. The ending of the Battle of Hogwarts will be rewritten. I won't vilify any Harry Potter character, and I'll do my best to write an ending that feels satisfying and true to the characters.

Theme: Being different isn't a curse, but the sharpest weapon of all.
