Athena Jones has two secrets: first, her uncontrollable Chaos Magic, and second, that she might not hate Draco Malfoy as much as she pretends. For years, their petty pranks are a welcome distraction from the darkness gathering around Hogwarts. But when Draco is forced to become a Death Eater, he does the one thing he thinks will save her: he breaks her heart. Injured and alone after Dumbledore's fall, Athena is hidden away at a remote cabin, protected by none other than Nicolas Malfoy-the highest-ranked Death Eater, a trained killer, and Draco's brother, who no one knew existed. As she heals, she discovers that the cold, distant man assigned to guard her has secrets of his own, and a heart that seems to understand her broken one. Torn between two brothers-one who left her to save her, and one who might destroy her to keep her-Athena must navigate a war where the lines between love, loyalty, and survival are blurred beyond recognition. ~ A Draco Malfoy Fanfiction with a very messy and dark plot. ~ This book may contain: Drug use, Alcohol, Addiction, Suicide, Sexual content, Trauma, Depression, Violent scenes, Self harm, Sexual assault, R@pe, coarse language and upsetting/triggering scenes. I highly advice you all to read with caution. I don't own any original Harry Potter character, however I do own Athena Jones, Nicolas Malfoy, Dahila Atonal, Hazel Brooks, William Brooks, and the plots created by me.
