❝ like we're made of starlight !  ❞

↳ ❝ [ ONCE UPON A STAR... ] i! ❞

In which two young souls from opposite worlds find themselves tangled in LOVE.

THEY TRULY SAY LOVE IS NOT EASY. However, young people fall for the wrong people sometimes. Raised under the weight of their powerful pure-blood families, they are expected to uphold legacies of hate, but neither is fully defined by their family's expectations.

To be a star you must burn, that was Regulus Black; Cold and distant on the outside, hides a deeply fractured heart. He learned to fake emotions after years of feeling unloved by his parents, perfecting the art of detachment.

On the other hand.

Lorelai Potter, adored and genuinely loved by her parents, shines with the same courage and rebellious nature as her older brother, James. She's known for her sharp wit, adventurous spirit, and radiant cherry smile that hides a longing for something more.

They were two pure-bloods with such different lives, different beliefs and morals but despite their differences, Regulus and Lorelai are alike in one crucial way: they carry the weight of hatred for one another.

Regulus black, a Slytherin and is everything Lorelai had been taught to despise: cold, elitist, and loyal to pure-blood supremacy, she doesn't trust Regulus.

To Regulus it was the opposite; His hatred for Lorelai Potter runs deep, stemming not only from her blood-traitor family, but from the way she embodies everything he can't have. Unlike him, she's loved, brave, and unapologetically herself. Her confidence and the affection she receives from her family highlight the emptiness in his own life, making her a constant reminder of what he's been denied, fueling his resentment.

But what bounded them together?

Lorelai is forever in James's shadow, fighting to be known for who she is beyond the infamous Potter name, while Regulus is suffocated by the coldness of his family's pure-blood supremacist beliefs. Though they are taught to despise one another, a pull they can't explain draws them closer.

Was it just the knowledge that two damaged people, trying to heal each other is love? Or was it that Lorelai believed that she could see in him what nobody else could see.

But as their secret relationship deepens, they are haunted by the truth they refuse to face. Regulus knows he is a "dying star," collapsing under the weight of his family's darkness, while Lorelai clings to the hope that their love can survive in the midst of this chaos. They both know their families would never accept their love—Lorelai's family would call him a cold, elitist Slytherin, while Regulus's family would sneer at her for being a "blood traitor."

Together, they live in the space between love and destruction, their romance a fragile and dangerous secret. But love, as they soon realize, was never meant to be easy, and perhaps they were too young to understand its true cost.

Lorelai clings to her papers and pens as she waited for his love because she couldn't live without it.

But Regulus and his truth, they sit in silence as be was simply a dying star.

In the end, some stars are meant to burn out, and some love stories are destined to fall apart. Lorelai's adventure ends with the knowledge that the boy she loved was a dying star, and all she could do was watch him fade.

Author's Note

➸ Hello & welcome to A dying star!!
I do not own Harry Potter nor the canon character. All rights go to J.K. Rowling.

➸ This is a REWRITE of a dying star (2021)
I have decided to unpublished that fic and rewrite it because I've grown so much since I wrote the og, considering I'm 18 and not 14.
Many plots /chapters will remain the same but obviously better written, but there will be some minor changes.

➸ I'm very grateful for all the love & support you guys showed with the og fic and hopefully you guys will enjoy this and do the same with this fic while getting a whole new experience. <33
