Harry and Draco were never just enemies. From their chance encounter before Hogwarts, Draco felt something he'd been taught to hate... something undesirable, "disgusting", and yet increasingly impossible to ignore. Through seven years of rivalry, obsession, cruelty, hunger, and war, their lives become intertwined in a way that affects everyone around them. Both boys wrestle with their shame, longing, morality, sexuality, trauma, and the disturbing possibility that what draws them together might be stronger than everything that threatens to keep them apart. This canon-compliant dark romance retcons Drarry directly into the original books and beyond. It follows their forbidden, toxic, addictive, tender, and increasingly passionate relationship from childhood into adulthood. For readers who want morally messy romance, heart-rending drama, and the possibility that Harry and Draco were always in love even while it looked like hate... This love story is Drarry endgame with a bitter-sweet (and hard-won) Happily Ever After. Hogwarts Years 1-8 ⚠️Hogwarts Era smut⚠️ [Available also on AO3 and FF] This fic is presented more like Deleted Scenes than an unbroken, continuous Rewrite, following the plot of their romance instead of Harry's quest to defeat Voldemort. It's recommended to read the original books to avoid loss of context. I try to avoid redundancy from re-explaining what's already presented in the books. Expect roughly 99% canon compliance due to small changes and mistakes.
