Their love is forbidden, dangerous, and considered the ultimate betrayal. As the Second Wizarding War erupts around them and Draco is forced into a role that threatens to destroy his soul, they must decide if their bond is strong enough to survive the shadows or if the darkness will consume them forever.

Eleanor Selwyn and Draco Malfoy had three things in common: a high, pure-blood status, academic talents and Slytherin house. Other than that, they were complete opposites and hated each other.

They went to the same parties, visited the same shops and restaurants and visited each other far more than Eleanor would have liked. If it were up to their mothers, they'd already have been betrothed, but ever since birth, the two were like fire and ice. But what happens when ice gets too close to fire?
