Chapter with * Contains SMUT. Draco Malfoy is a free man-at least, that's what the Ministry claims. In truth, he's a walking prisoner: monitored, watched, paraded in front of wealthy families desperate to claim the last Malfoy heir. Beautiful, soft-spoken, and dangerous without meaning to be, she sees through him in a way no one else does. She comforts him, challenges him, infuriates him-and hides something he can't quite touch. She was never meant to fall for him. He was never meant to need her. When her connection to a rising rebellion is exposed, Draco must decide whether to let her go... or burn the world that already blames him. A slow-burn, sharp-edged romance about healing, guilt, and the one person who was never supposed to matter.
