Silver & Sin
Draco Malfoy has spent a scandal-free year teaching Experimental Alchemy, collecting polite respect and convincing himself redemption has finally taken. Then the Headmistress unveils a new policy: every professor may request an assistant of their choice. Malfoy files three identical requests for Tessa Carter-the sharp-tongued transfer student he bullied for daring to orbit Harry Potter-and feels oddly hopeful. An apology, a partnership, a clean slate: how hard can it be? Tessa's answer arrives faster than an owl can flap: absolutely not. The freckles Malfoy remembers have been laser-burned away, replaced by porcelain skin, obsidian hair, and emerald eyes that promise war. She hasn't forgotten the hexes that glued her boots to the flagstones or the nickname "Yankee Mudblood," accuracy be damned. When Hogwarts overrides her refusals, Tessa storms back into the castle armed with a decade of mastery in defensive charms-and a secret reason she missed an entire semester long ago. Their first meeting shatters a cauldron, singes half the draperies, and costs twenty house points no one technically has. Yet midnight experiments and castle corridors have a way of sharpening loyalties. She sees the professor who rewrites lessons at 2 a.m. to protect shy students from humiliation; he sees the witch who still shields the underdogs he once mocked. The tension sizzles between apology and relapse, guilt and attraction-until a sealed Malfoy vault stirs in the depths of the school, leaking a darkness bound to both their histories. To save Hogwarts-and themselves-Draco and Tessa must decide which is stronger: the sins that forged them, or the alchemy of a forbidden romance neither intended to brew.
Tangled in You (A Draco Malfoy Fanfiction)
It started with a secret kiss-one impulsive, forbidden moment between Abigayle Nott and her cousin's best friend, Draco Malfoy. What followed was a quiet war of glances and whispered arguments, sneaking through corridors and slipping behind closed doors, all under the noses of their friends. That summer before fifth year was supposed to mean nothing. It meant everything. But Hogwarts doesn't stay innocent for long. By sixth year, the air has grown colder, war closer. Abigayle begins to unravel in ways she can't explain-visions, secrets, truths half-buried in bloodlines and betrayal. Draco grows distant. The world tips toward chaos. Caught between who they were and who they're forced to become, Abigayle and Draco must decide what they're willing to sacrifice for love, for loyalty, and for the kind of future neither of them ever believed they could have. A story of stolen moments, slow-burning love, and a girl learning that even in a world full of dark magic and cruel prophecy-she was never powerless. 🔥 Spice Level: This story contains explicit scenes (Smut with Plot): → Desperate intimacy · Possessive!Draco · Soft aftercare · Emotional vulnerability · Jealousy kink · First time tension · Subtle dom/sub dynamics ⚠️ Content Warnings / Trigger Warnings -Torture -Psychological manipulation -Imprisonment -Violence -Mentions of death -Non-consensual environment (not non-con sex, but contextually dark) -PTSD & trauma themes -Mental/emotional distress -War themes -Dubious morality -Canon-typical violence All original H.P.

"I want to make love to you." And then he began kissing me again, open mouthed, soft lipped kissing me.

I looked at her possessively before grabbing her by the nape of her neck and pulling her closer to me, our lips a breath away. "You are mine. Only mine. Understand?" I gritted out and she nodded slowly. "Good. Because I'll fucking kill any man who lays his hand on you. On what's mine." I said and crashed my lips onto hers. I kissed her roughly and possessively, I made her know who she belonged to. And if anyone said otherwise, they'd have to deal with a bullet in their head. * * * Nicholas 'Ace' King - Don of the Italian Mafia and the most feared person around.

A Boy From Manning Heights ✔️
"that's rich coming from a pretty boy" I narrow my eyes. "I'm not a pretty boy." He smirks standing from the desk and reaching forward twirling a piece of my hair between his fingers. "not in the traditional sense no...but you still bleed daddy's money" I reach up gripping his wrist, maybe harder then necessary; suddenly angry. "you don't know me Jasper, don't pretend you do" He sucks in a breath before leaning forward and putting his mouth next to my ear "I know you're so desperate for me, you can't fucking think straight" My breath catches and my eyes flick up meeting his not believing I heard what I did, but there's no denying it when he pushes me against his door and his lips meet my own hungry, angry, frustrated. ••• Jasper Collins is not expecting to ever step foot inside Balton's Boys School. A private behavioural school for those who can afford it, but after one too many expulsions and a scholarship opportunity Jasper finds himself stuck in a place filled with pretty boys who've done nothing worse then forget to shine their silver spoon. Beckett Chambers took on a mentorship position at Balton's to stay away from home. He could care less about status and social image he just wants to find a way out of Manning Heights and Balton's was supposed to be his safe haven until then.

The Beast's Kryptonite
"Mine." His low growl of possession took my heart and the fate of my panties. They were soaked through with arousal. Damn it. I stroked his face as he sniffed the air. I prayed he couldn't smell my body's reaction to his. His hand slipped from my waist and traveled to the rip in my dress. "I can smell how much your body craves mine." My breath catches as his hand finds it home at the front of my panties. "Why don't you just submit yourself to me? Accept that you are mine and mine alone?" His hand was traveling lower, and he found my clit rubbing it through my underwear. I couldn't help but lean my head back and moan out at his skillful administration on my pussy."Moan, my name, my innocent mate. Tell everyone who is making you feel this pleasure."He had ripped my underwear off me and threw them across to hit another tree. He propped me up against the tree, causing me to hold onto his shoulders for support as his fingers took advantage of my spread legs, my dress completely exposing my pussy to him."Absolutely Ravishing." One of his thick fingers pumped its way into my hole, causing me to moan loudly into his ear. "Seth." ********* Seth Knight was not one for romance; everyone at Quillwood High School knew that. If you were a girl, you were in danger of being his next distraction. He would fuck a girl, the girl would fall in love, and he would leave. It was what had always happened. But there was a time before he had become a player. His old best friend, Belle Rivers, the innocent, sweet girl he had known since birth, kept the darkness at bay. Their mothers had been best friends since high school and conceived only months apart. They were destined to be. He was her protector, and she had kept him good, but when his dad died, the darkness crept into his heart, and the only one who could save him was forced to leave him.

So tell me, what happens when the poorest girl's dad strikes oil and suddenly becomes a billionaire? A tricky game that can only be played by professionals.

Always getting bullied, she had had enough. When Abigale becomes the richest girl in the school she does the only thing in her mind. Get. Revenge. Stealing the head prep's style from head to toe wasn't the best idea, but you only live once, right?
