If you don't want to read about dead Harry then skip to the second chapter that will just tell you where to read from.
Deals with suicide in the first couple chapters along with Implied self harm.
Abuse,PTSD,Torture,strong language and death through out.
I do NOT own Harry Potter if I did God knows I wouldn't be writing this.

Secrets ( A Drarry Fanfiction)
"Well, Malfoy, you won't tell me, but I will find out your secrets." Draco Malfoy has secrets. Lots of them. Returning to his 6th year, many no longer remain secret. Harry Potter hates secrets. He loves to know everything, about everyone. He will, no matter what, find out Dracos. Secrets are dangerous. and what happens when they get out is even more. And secrets never stay hidden. I am adding an addition warning to the one below: i wrote this story when i was 12. i am now an adult, and realize that a lot of this is awfully written, and some of it is problematic and possibly triggering. I considered removing it but so many people have enjoyed and continue to enjoy it so i want to avoid that. There are scenes with/referencing self harm, sexual assault and abuse, bullying, and other graphic details. WARNING! This is boy x boy! Meaning boys will be in relationships with one another. There is Mpreg, meaning male pregnancy!!Also, there is some sexual scenes, along with graphic details and self harm! I OWN NOTHING HARRY POTTER RELATED IT ALL BELONGS TO JK ROWLING SHE IS AMAZING!!! Cover is made by @malfoyiss -----------Complete

THE QUIET BEFORE: Part I - FOUNDATION
THE QUIET BEFORE: Part I of II - FOUNDATION Harry Potter died a hero. He greeted Death not as an enemy, but as an old companion-and in return, Fate gave him something far more dangerous than peace. A second chance. Reborn into a life that was never kind to him, Harry grows up carrying echoes of a future he has not yet lived and scars no one else can see. Hogwarts is still waiting. Voldemort still looms. But this time, the battle is not only about survival-it is about understanding, healing, and choice. This is the story of the years before the war. Of friendships forged slowly and painfully. Of trust rebuilt, truths uncovered, and power learned through restraint rather than violence. Before the world burns, Harry must learn how to live. Foundation is not a story about the war itself - it is about the years that quietly shape it. About friendships formed in kitchens instead of common rooms. About trials that happen in courtrooms instead of battlefields. About choices that look small at the time... and change everything later. Foundation is a character-driven reimagining of the Harry Potter story-focused on growth, relationships, political undercurrents, and the quiet moments that shape who stands when the war finally comes. This is a slow-burn, character-driven retelling where no one exists only to support the plot - and no one walks away unchanged. The war is coming. But first, the world has to be built. THIS IS KIND OF A SLOW BURN AND NOT FULLY ABOUT ROMANCE THO YOU WILL HAVE LOVELY RELATIONSHIPS FORMING AND ROMANCE APPEARING BECAUSE LIKE YOU, IM A SUCKER FOR HARRY POTTER ROMANCES remember as this is fanfiction, many things like birthdays, age and character personalities are altered to fit my imagination, so keep an open mind when reading, thank you! the story is very different from Cannon. HAVE A NICE READ!
