The Slytherin Boys ⁰²

The Great Hall fell silent for a moment as Evan Rosier's younger sister walked through the doors of Hogwarts. A year younger than Dorian, she possessed the same Rosier elegance, but there was something in her gaze that made even the most confident hesitate.

Evan Rosier Jr. merely raised his chin in greeting, while his inseparable friends, Barty Crouch Jr. and Regulus Black, watched the newcomer with discreet curiosity. Abraxas Malfoy commented that another Rosier would further strengthen Slytherin's influence. Theodore and Thaddeus Nott exchanged silent glances, and Lorenzo Berkshire simply smiled, intrigued.

When the Sorting Hat announced
"SLYTHERIN!", applause echoed across the green and silver table. Mattheo Riddle raised an eyebrow, assessing the girl, while Tom Riddle maintained an impassive expression, though his eyes followed her for a few seconds longer than necessary.

Draco Malfoy, accustomed to the prestige of great pure-blood families, gave a brief nod of respect. Without showing any nervousness, young Rosier sat down beside her brother, as if she had always belonged there.

That night, many believed that Hogwarts had simply welcomed another student. The more observant, however, realized that the arrival of the second Rosier would change the delicate balance between the old Slytherin families, and that her name would soon be as talked about as Evan's.
