The Dragon in The Ice Fortress- Draco Malfoy
54 parts Ongoing MatureBook One in the TDITIF series
"The Dragon in the Ice Fortress" is a gripping tale of love, loyalty, and survival in the darkest days of the wizarding world. The story unravels the complex layers of Draco Malfoy, a boy hardened by his family's expectations, caught in a war he never chose, and haunted by the impossible tasks placed upon him by Voldemort. As he teeters on the brink of despair, his icy exterior seems impenetrable-until Thalia Ashford steps into his life.
Thalia, a strikingly independent transfer from Beauxbatons, is more than just another student at Hogwarts. Behind her sharp tongue and fiery determination lies a past as complicated as Draco's, one marked by tragedy, secrecy, and an unrelenting fight for freedom. Drawn together by chance and circumstance, Draco and Thalia form a connection that neither of them expects-one built on shared pain, guarded trust, and a flicker of hope in an otherwise bleak world.
As the shadow of war looms over Hogwarts, their fragile bond is tested. Thalia begins to uncover the truth behind Draco's secretive behavior: the pressure of his family's allegiance to Voldemort, the unrelenting demands of the Dark Mark on his arm, and the soul-crushing weight of a mission destined to end in bloodshed. Meanwhile, Thalia faces her own struggles as the conflict forces her to choose between standing by Draco or joining the Order in their fight against the growing darkness.
