A curse was supposed to end Draco Malfoy's life. Instead, it shattered it.
Eleven years after the War, A De-aged to fourteen with no memory beyond his fourth year, Draco wakes up in the middle of an Auror mission gone horribly wrong. Bleeding, confused, and thrown into the hands of a much older, much wearier Harry Potter, he soon learns that the world has moved on without him. Eleven years after the war, Draco Malfoy-now a boy again-has become a ghost of a past no one was prepared to face.
To protect him from enemies who would exploit his weakened state, Harry keeps Draco under his care, hidden from the world. But there's a catch-every full moon, the curse unravels, forcing Draco to relive his past one year at a time, memories crashing into him with brutal clarity. Every mistake. Every regret. Every betrayal. And the slow, inescapable realization of who he used to be-and who he could have been.
But the longer Draco stays with Harry, the more dangerous things become. Resentment turns into understanding. Understanding turns into something neither of them is ready for. And by the time Draco has grown into the man he was meant to be, there's no denying the power struggle that simmers between them-one that neither of them intends to lose. But one of them will.
Told from both Draco's and Harry's perspectives, this is a story of regret, obsession, and a desire that was never meant to exist.
⚠️ Warnings: Pain. Angst. Dark themes. A slow descent into obsession, desire, and control. Dom/sub undertones. Smut when Draco is an ADULT. Not for the faint of heart. You've been warned.
