LABYRINTH of HEARTS (DRARRY Romance)

Letter #1

MS. GRANGER,

I'm excited to write to you because you of all people understand where I'm coming from. You, out of everyone, suspected the truth from very early on and offered to help me publish the omitted parts of my story, now that you have the power in your office to do so.

I'll be conveying each Memory Vial to you by owl. Transcribe them using your most trusted and open-hearted Ghost Writer—a writer who won't be swayed by the politics still affecting us ever since the end of the Second Wizarding War. Furthermore, please make sure whoever you assign to the task understands to not gloss over my mistakes. I was hardly a saint—as Draco once accused me of being—and don't wish to be whitewashed into the annals of history as a sinless man.

As chief editor of Pyrfidous Press, you have my full permission to alter whatever you wish, in so far as it does not change the heart and soul of these Memory Vials. These are my most Precious Truths, and I wish for them to be handled with due care.

That said, I look forward to reading and editing the initial drafts by the end of the year, if not sooner. I trust very little changes will need to be made. You value the truth as much as I do—and concealing the truth does no good to anyone, save for those who would rather remain ignorant.

There are those who will want to tamper with these Memory Vials—or destroy them, or possibly leak them in some cases. I trust you know why. I would be grateful if you prioritized the security of these Vials. Given the very personal and sensitive nature of their contents, I would rather publish this story according to our own timeline and not someone else's.

Expect the Vials to be delivered one by one without prearranged delivery times, some with my own owl, but the rest will be delivered using Draco's. Be on alert and give my regards to Ron. I hope his foray into Magical Vestments is proceeding just as he had hoped.
We ought to set up a meeting—a double-date, even. You, me, Ron, and Draco. It would be lovely to see your smiling faces again, and to hear how things are going with the wedding preparations. I received your request for me to be your Man of Honor—but also an equally-as-tempting request from Ron for me to be his Best Man.

You two have given me an impossible choice to wrestle with, and I have half a mind to flip a Cockney Coin to make the decision for me.

I'll write again soon. I love you both, truly. And, again, I'm very grateful for your resourcefulness and help.

Your best friend always,

HARRY POTTER

P.S. I've scribbled a note that I would like to be the Foreword for the coming manuscript. If it's too much—or not enough—for what it's designed to do, then feel free to edit or leave it out completely. I think it would do well, however, to prepare the reader for the controversial content contained within these Vials.
