Bound by Blood and Spite Year 4

After the explosive kiss at the end of their third year, Draco and Emily return to Hogwarts, both avoiding and craving each other. Their relationship begins with a bang when Draco kisses Emily just to annoy her, triggering a massive argument. The tension between them is undeniable, and despite the constant insults and games they play, a deeper connection starts to form.

As the year progresses, Draco's jealousy and pride are tested, especially when Pansy tries to sabotage their already fragile bond. She spreads a rumor that Emily is only interested in Draco for his money and status, fueling the flames of doubt. Tensions between the two skyrocket, leading to a dangerous kiss that's filled with both anger and something far more intense.

Things take a darker turn when Pansy's rumor grows, with her claiming that Emily is blackmailing Draco into marriage for his family's fortune. The rumor devastates Emily, and in the final blow to their relationship, Draco storms off, leaving for the summer in anger and confusion, unwilling to confront his feelings for Emily.

The year ends with both of them emotionally wrecked, their relationship more complicated than ever, and a long, silent summer ahead. Will they ever find their way back to each other, or has the damage been done?
