Smoke between us
By @Lara Meiners
At Hogwarts, secrets have a way of suffocating those who keep them. Valerie Ashcroft, a gentle-hearted Slytherin, wants nothing more than a quiet life away from the rising shadows of the wizarding world. But she carries a volatile secret: the spark of Ancient Magic dormant in her bloodline. When this raw, untamed power begins to manifest as a suffocating ash-smoke whenever she experiences intense emotion, Valerie is forced into the path of those who seek to exploit her. She must navigate a dangerous web of house rivalries, dark wizard conspiracies, and her own self-destructive fear of being seen. If she cannot master the smoke in her veins, she will not only lose her chance at love, but she will also burn down the very sanctuary she sought to protect. In a world on the brink of war, Valerie must choose between hiding her light or letting the ancient fire consume everything she loves.

Harry Potter and the strongest warlock
By @User 1995
In a world where ancient powers course through ley lines and warlocks rule with iron fists, Megan mar'orz exists as an enigma. Possessing cosmic powers that dwarf even the most potent magic, she drifts through the mystical realm of Warlock, her true origins shrouded in stardust. But a brewing cataclysm threatens to unravel reality itself, a shadowy entity consuming not just magic, but the very essence of existence. Megan, her heart scarred by a past she refuses to confront, finds herself inexplicably drawn into the heart of this conflict. Her extraordinary abilities are the world's only hope, yet her mysterious nature and deep-seated reluctance to connect with others may be its ultimate downfall. Can a being of such unfathomable power overcome her own internal demons to save a world she never truly felt a part of?
