Light in the Darkness

"She could always help me find light in the darkness."
-- Draco Malfoy

|Drastoria|

"They weren't thinking of the broken, fractured world they were living in. In that moment, they had each other, and that was enough."

The world is shattered, reality fragmented. Harry Potter died during the battle of Hogwarts, Voldemort and his regime, the Augury, rule the wizarding world.

The pureblooded class, however, is strong and powerful as ever. Expectations of decorum and poise are thrust upon any wizard who's last name is featured on the Sacred Twenty Eight. An elegance is required when attending the pureblood balls, hosted every week for the rich and elite.

Expectations and elegance that Astoria Greengrass just can't seem to meet.

A blood malediction looming over her -- her family's most closely guarded secret, a secret that could besmirch their entire family name -- she is forced to lie to protect.

But when her fate intertwines with that of Draco Malfoy, she finds herself finally free, finally grounded.

The only problem -- some secrets are just too complicated, and somethings in this twisted world are out of their control.
