Quiet Blood

Fifth year at Hogwarts is suffocating. Between Umbridge's iron-fist decrees, the Inquisitorial Squad, and a looming war, River Bennett just wants to keep her head down and protect the people she loves.

Draco Malfoy is drowning in family legacy and public expectations. He's used to people trembling at his name. So when a quiet, unbothered muggleborn Hufflepuff with a sharp tongue looks right through him, it doesn't make him angry-it makes him obsessed.

Amidst secret DA meetings and stolen moments in forgotten tower nooks, a dangerous game begins. Because behind his silver badge and Occlumency walls, Draco is hiding a truth: she's the only real thing left in his world, and he's running out of ways to push her away.
