Beneath the Emerald Veil

"Snake are meant to bite- not unless they have fangs"

I never asked to come to Hogwarts. I didn't want to leave Beauxbatons, didn't want to be a transfer, and definitely didn't want to be sorted into a house that whispers ambition and danger in my ear.

But Slytherin doesn't care about what I want.

Then there's Draco Lucius Malfoy-pale, sharp, and infuriatingly smug. He seems to delight in testing me at every turn, a snake in human form, always watching, always calculating. And yet... sometimes, when no one else is looking, I catch glimpses of something else behind those grey eyes. Something protective.

I'm supposed to hate him. He's supposed to be my enemy. But the closer I get, the more I realize that survival here isn't just about magic. It's about trust, power, and the dangerous pull of someone I should never want.

Enemies. Allies. Lovers. Or all three.
