When Draco is in his sixth year at hogwarts, at sixteen, before he leaves, his father, Lucius Malfoy, beats him to try to get him to do better in his classes, but really, all that that does is send Draco into a mass of emotional and mental instability. Finally, will everyone at hogwarts see Draco for who he really is, and his father for who he really is? Or, will Draco continue to be forced to live a life doing things and acting ways he does not believe in. (Warning: This does not follow anywhere close to the story line of the books)

I, like all others, am a victim. To life. To living. The endless circle of living and dying. But you. You never change. And me? I will die with no one knowing who I really was. My true self. Slowly. I wilt. And soon. Death. ____________________________________ [[[WARNING]]] This book contains topics of self harm, depression, self loathing and/or depreciation, blood, violence, and sexual scenes.
