Draco Malfoy, Broken

Special 100K Update

100K Super Special Update! Really big smiley face!

Published: 5/14/2020

Thanks to all my readers who are new or who have stuck with me this whole time! We reached 100K reads! (now 107K) Yay! According to Word, I'm up to 700,000 words and over 1400 pages! That's like five Harry Potter books combined... and we aren't even to Christmas, yet! I think it'll start moving faster, but it hasn't happened, yet. I do enjoy writing, smiley face!

Thanks for all the votes, comments and follows! I really appreciate it! I enjoy interacting with you and I can feel where I left holes in the story or need to work in an area. I do actually adapt the story sometimes to better explain something. Just because it makes sense in my mind, doesn't mean it translates well into words. It's what I enjoy about Wattpad, over all the other sites. I am trying to be a better writer, and this story is helping me so much, plus I love doing it! So, thanks again!

So SNEAK PEAK time! WARNING WARNING! Future plots may be revealed! Turn away now! Turn away now!

- The music box opened, revealing a small piece of paper instead.

- The creature stared up at him. Bigger than Fang, but scaled and had yellow eyes. Its forked tongue slithered in and out of its mouth, as it tilted its head. But before anyone could do anything, it turned and scampered into the forest.

- Asher stared up at the candle as it flickered for a long time. This last potion he made was really tripping him out. He was drooling a little, so when the kid with the hood over his face showed up, he wasn't really paying attention. Potions, he knew and breathed though. Any kind... the good, bad and indifferent. He wanted a strange one, that was for sure, but Asher couldn't understand the why of it. He handed it over to him and took the money easy enough, without an explanation. What the kid does with it, is his own business.

- "Harry, the man hates me. Do you really think this is going to work?" Harry gave him a big grin as he pressed forward and nodded. "Yep."

- It was snowing, again, but this time, it was Draco's hand clenched around Harry's as the bells tolled quietly, calling the parishioners to mass.

- Theo smiled and not because everyone else was doing it.

- He thought he had escaped as he popped into one of his old forest hideouts. He grabbed some supplies he had stashed, but felt the hairs on the back of his neck go up. He sensed the danger immediately. He had to be on his toes after all these years. He tried to leave, but found he couldn't Apparate out. Perhaps, there was an old ward still up, but he threw the bag over his shoulder and walked out the front door. He made it ten feet away, when his wand was wretched from his grasp. "I promised my son that I wouldn't kill any more, but for you, I'll make an exception," a cold voice said from behind him.

- "Sorry," the Auror said as he clamped his hand down on his shoulder while the other applied the Incarcerous. "You're not taking him anywhere!" Harry roared, as everyone pulled out wands.

- "I have an uncle?"

- As its wings expanded and he really didn't need to say it, but he couldn't help but exclaim. "It's a dragon!"

- The lines blackened as the skull and snake burned brightly into the soft flesh of his forearm. He dropped to his knees, clutching his arm from the pain of the fiery brand.

Special One-Shot

So, not sure if this is considered a one-shot or not, but it's a POV from previous chapters. After Draco was released from Azkaban, most of the focus was on him, and I generally avoided Harry's perceptive, peculiarly about how he was feeling toward Draco. So, when he kissed Draco's shoulder in his bed, it was more of a surprise. But I did feel... disappointed... about not doing the "Oh my Merlin, I think I'm gay moment!" and the fancy dinner that Harry and Draco had. I had resolved back then, to write it out in a flashback later, but present tense is more funner.  So, here's a blast of fun from the past! (FYI Harry was still calling Draco by his last name at that point)
