The story does follow the original story of Harry Potter, however it's a year forward, IE 5th year events are in 6th year to coincide with this story's timeline.
This has a storyline with twists as well as smut, so hope you enjoy :)

She walked with confidence. Standing tall, even though she was only 5'7, and a half, she liked to tell herself. Her footsteps echoed and caught attention wherever she went, the girls faces going green with envy, hiding their boyfriend's eyes away from her, and low laughs escaping boys lips, with smirks plastered onto their faces as they imagined what it would look like under her pleated skirt that went up slightly above her mid-thigh.

Celeste smirked to herself, she knew people looked, but it didn't bother her or even flattered her a little. She wasn't interested. Her cheekbones stood out prominently, framing her face in such a way it looked at if it had been carved from a talented artist. Her light green eyes pierced her tanned skin, with soft pink lips that made people drool when they thought about planting a kiss upon them. Even some of the Professors looked, Professor Snape, stealing glances at her in class, as she made difficult potions with ease and in a matter of minutes, while other students weren't done for hours. Celeste was not only beautiful but also intelligent, which made her all the more alluring. She had wit too. A snappy come back for any statement, making people laugh, filling them up with warmth inside. Such a talented and smart girl who has had such a difficult life.

Even people who didn't know her personally, knew about her. Draco's father, Lucius Malfoy had heard about her often from his son, who was extremely fond of her. A crush, Lucius thought to himself. The young witch must be special, as Draco did not get butterflies in his stomach for just anyone. Only meeting her a few times, with a passing glance and a simple hello, Celeste popped into Lucius' mind often. A beautiful girl, who even at 14, when he had first seen her, looked mature. Then again at 16, smiling to himself as he overheard a snarky comment she had given a boy who was being extremely inappropriate. Nothing fazed her. Lucius liked that about her. Lucius Malfoy was also intrigued by her due to her past. The girl whose parents were pureblood supremacists, murdered by their own master, but she was nothing like them. Celeste was kind, so gentle that if only talking to you for a minute, she made you feel as if she had known you forever. A gifted girl not only in magic but also in life.

He craved to know more about her. There had been whispers ever since the Dark Lord had returned, that he wanted something from her. If you caught the Dark Lords attention in such a flattering way, made Lucius' attention spike too. Voldermort had not talked about wanting her gone, as he did with that filthy half-blood Potter, the one that had destroyed everything the last time. The Dark Lord was also intrigued by her, Lucius watched him as Voldermort glanced at pictures of her and Draco together. The way she smiled, the way she laughed. He ran his long fingertips across it. Lucius had an inkling of why he was so interested, but was not certain. But if it were true, the girl was probably the most important thing ever to set foot in his life.

It had been a long summer. A whirlwind of Order business and being with her friends made Celeste feel as if she had not a moment of peace. And now, school. She should be in her final year, but health complications when she was young meant she started a year late. She didn't mind so much, her friends around her were the only thing that mattered. Celeste took in a sharp breath, and she ran through to the platform, she was early but wanted to get a good seat. She smiled at the thought of seeing Ron, Harry, Hermione and even Fred and George for a while before they left again. It was strange they weren't going to be around this year. Celeste had spent most of the summer with Sirius Black in his home, their home, she corrected. She was his goddaughter, and even though they were not tied by blood, he was her father, through and through. "Celeste!" A familiar voice echoed in her ears, breaking her thoughts. She searched for the host and smiled when her eyes rested on the platinum blonde-headed boy; her friend, Draco Malfoy. It seemed her had gotten taller, a thing she hadn't believed possible. "Malfoy" she giggled as he embraced her. "I've missed you" he whispered in her ear. Draco was a close friend of Celeste's; however, it did not mean they were without quarrels. Draco believed in blood purity, despising muggle-borns like one of her close friends Granger, and took a distaste to him when he ridiculed her other friends; which she had scorned him for over and over. "You look..." Draco trailed off as he glanced over her features and body, trying not to stick on her slightly unbuttoned shirt that revealed a healthy cleavage. "Beautiful"

"Getting soft?" she punched him in jest on the arm.

"Of course not" he defended, a little too harshly. His cheeks went a little crimson, he had always found her beautiful. "Where is Narcissa, I must say hello" Celeste smiled as she intertwined their arms. Celeste and Narcissa got along, all things considered, Celeste almost looked up to her. She was strong and had fierce loyalty, yet that was somewhat misplaced at times. "Mother!" Draco shouted confidently, Narcissa glanced upward and smiled as she saw Celeste. Dracos mother was also very fond of Celeste, even hoping the two would one day find a match in each other. Narcissa had been close to Celeste's parents, a pureblood line, so in her eyes, Celeste would be a perfect match for her son. "Celeste" she embraced her warmly. "You look beautiful as always. Did you enjoy your summer? I was rather upset when I found you wouldn't be joining us... again". Celeste had never taken an invitation to the Malfoy Manor before, the place scared her a little, even though she did not admit it. She always tried to figure out whether it was the house or Draco's father that intimidated her most. Only meeting him briefly a few times, she shivered in the presence of him. "Unfortunately I was preoccupied at the Weasley house" she lied, Celeste watched as both Draco and his mother curled in disgust at the name. It irritated her. "No matter, there's always a next time" Narcissa smiled.

"We wouldn't want you fraternizing with the wrong sort" a stone-cold voice stated. Celeste shivered, turning her head to see Lucius Malfoy standing behind her. Like Draco, he inspected her, however, he did not try and hide the fact he was stuck on her chest. "Mr Malofy" Celeste greeted.

"Father?" Draco questioned. "I thought you weren't coming".

"Yes" he paused, looking up at Narcissa with a glare. "It was a last-minute decision" Lucius spat, wiping off Dracos concern. "However, I am glad I attended. Always lovely to meet your friends" his lips curled into a smirk, one that made butterflies erupt in Celeste's stomach. Lucius outstretched a hand, catching Celeste's, and kissed it very gently. "Miss Caddel is always welcome in the Malfoy house, I do not understand why it has taken her so long to attend" he questioned.

"I do not want to overstep Sir" she lied again

"Nonsense" Lucius took a sharp step closer to her, using his cane to lift up her chin so she met his gaze. A small gasp escaped her lips, he smiled. "It's a shame we have not spent enough time together Miss Caddel, I presume we would make fast friends". He used a finger to brush her long blonde hair behind one of her ears. She gulped, he smelt rich, like mint and musky wood, amazing, she thought to herself. "Ugh," Lucius said suddenly, she was taken aback, however, realised quickly his disgust was not toward her, but to the Weasley family, who had just arrived on the platform. "Arthur," he said arrogantly. Arthur Weasley smiled politely.

"Lucius"

"How are things at the Ministry? Busy, with all those extra raids? I do hope they're paying you overtime. Though judging by the state of this" he motioned toward the rest of the Weasley family, Celeste frowned, she thought they looked lovely. "I'd say not". Draco smirked at his father's remark, Celeste scorned him silently. She took a step back from Lucius, gaining his attention. "We should board" she stated in annoyance, it gained a smile from Lucius.

"Do consider my offer Miss Caddel" she jumped a little as his hand found its way onto her shoulder; toying with the fine fabric. "It would be a pleasure to see you again". Lucius licked his lips a little, and Celeste's cheeks grew a slight rose colour. He noticed this and a laugh escaped his lips, trailing his finger over her cheek. "Don't be shy now" he commanded, pulling back after a few lingering seconds. "Draco" Lucius stated, giving him a mere nod before walking away. His presence, his figure, his stern eyes and voice, so intimidating, yet intoxicating, she thought. "Come on, let get you lot a seat" Molly Weasley said pleasantly, throwing an arm around Celeste.
