    Summary

    His shirt was soaked through with blood as his hand moved uselessly, trying to cover the wound. A low groan slipped past his lips. The heat of the surrounding flames lashed against his skin, weakening him with every passing second.

    He clenched his teeth. With the weight of those red eyes fixed on him, he forced himself to rise.

    He hadn’t fallen yet. He would make sure those eyes gleamed with satisfaction.

    On July 31, 1980, the Potter family welcomed twins into the world: Elian Cassian Potter and Rowen Fleamont Potter. However, the rigid traditions of the wizarding world and the Dark Lord’s desire to train the heirs of the Sacred Twenty-Eight pushed Elian into the background from the very beginning. Rowen, born just two minutes earlier, had already secured his place as the family’s heir. The lack of attention and the harsh treatment he endured fed the ambition within Elian—an ambition that would, in time, grow into a deep and consuming obsession.

    Summary

    "I’ve buried you once, Alastor. I’m not in the mood to do it again."

    London, 2005. Harry Potter is a Senior Auror tired of the fame, the bureaucracy, and the hollow title of the 'World's Most Eligible Bachelor.' When a hunt for a rogue Unspeakable goes wrong, a shattered Chronos-stone and Harry’s own status as the Master of Death drag him back to a time he only knows from nightmares and gravestones.

    Landing on October 31st, 1978, Harry’s first instinct is to survive. But after saving a high-ranking Death Eater from a lethal Ministry ambush, he finds himself claimed as an asset by the Dark Lord himself.

    Now, Harry must navigate the treacherous waters of the Inner Circle as a man who doesn't exist. To protect his future and his family, he decides to play a dangerous game: becoming the architect of Voldemort’s rise, but on his own terms. If he can keep Tom Riddle from slipping into the madness of the horcruxes, he might just save the world—by perfecting the darkness instead of fighting it.
