But as I watched you fight, watched you claw your way through every twisted game I created, I realized you were different. Special. But wanting you has a cost. Do you even know what I've paid to keep you here? How much blood I've spilled, how many lives I've crushed, just to see you one more time? Money is meaningless. Power is a tool. But you? You're the prize. I know it's madness, but what's one more debt to pay when I've already gambled away everything? Even if it destroys us both, I'll have you. You're worth the ruin.

Harry doesn't mind that so many Slytherins from his year have returned to finish their NEWTs, really he doesn't. It's just - do they have to be so friendly? He's not prejudiced, really he's not. It's just - they've got to be up to something, right? Unnerved by the attention he's attracting from everyone - the Slytherins are the least of it, to be fair - and struggling with a raft of changes to Hogwarts itself, Harry wishes he could be happy that one constant remains: Draco Malfoy really fucking hates him. When he's hit by an illegal love-spell though, Harry finds he has more to worry about than whether or not Blaise Zabini actually wants to be his friend. For if everyone affected has been blessed - or cursed, by the look on Malfoy's face - with a magical tattoo revealing the name of their soulmate, what does it mean that Harry's skin remains completely bare?
