Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy have lived similar lives, though they never realized it. All their lives, they've asked the same questions, though they never realized it. 

What do you do when the world turns against you? When your protectors become your betrayers and condemn you?

What do you do when your world comes crashing down on you, and the darkness threatens to suck you into its grasp?

Is there any hope, any kindness, any light to be found? Can the unloved find love in the unlikeliest of places? Can enemies put aside differences and learn to trust each other through friendship? Will the darkness that lingers eventually be vanquished, or will it claim victory forever?

Will you be able to escape the darkness? Is it even possible?

Little do they know that these very questions will bring them together on a journey like no other.All Rights Reserved

Hidden {Book 1} IN EDITING by -weirdo-

One thing you need to know about life, it's not what it's cut out to be. Why do I say this? Because I'm Harry Potter's twin sister, Isabella Lily Potter. And my life took a huge turn on my fifteenth birthday. Never have I expected for fairy tales to come true. For witches and wizards to be real, and for me to be one. Actually, the most powerful witch ever. Yeah, but that doesn't make anything more simple. It really makes everything even more dangerous. See, Voldemort (the man that killed my parents and attempted to kill me and Harry) is on the rise. Luckily, he thinks (and just about everyone else) that I'm dead. I'm dating Fred Weasley... In a way, I guess. But I'm falling in love. . .with my brother's worst enemy, Draco Malfoy. Yes,I know. How can I betray my brother? You'll just have to see. . . DISCLAIMER!!! I DO NOT OWN ANYTHING BELONGING TO J.K.ROWLING!!!

Draco Malfoy x Reader One Shots by Pride_of_Slytherin

"Draco Malfoy was ice. His skin was pale, his features were sharp, and his words were cold. He bit out insults and harsh truths like it was his role in life to do so, and his cool expression would tell you that he thought nothing of it. He was harsh, unforgiving. Ice. But when you met up with him, in free hours between classes or after dark, in the room of requirements or in the astronomy tower, there was a heat that thawed his cold apathy, a burning type of heat when his fingers dragged through your hair or over your skin, intense. And then he was fire. He was untamed and untamable, unquenchable, and it left you without breath. But no matter what type of seizing extreme he was, Draco Malfoy was unattainable. Yours only as long as the flames were alight or the ice was mind numbing, encompassing. And when it had struck you that that wasn't enough, that he was an unpredictable constant you desired in more ways than you had both settled upon, Draco Malfoy was only ice..." Pronouns: he/she/they | **Christmas themed one shots included **

Remain Nameless by HeyJude19-writing

How did it feel? It felt like he was barely holding it together. She, of all people, should shun him. Or yell at him. Curse him. Spit at him. Take out her wand and blast him off the face of the earth. It was crushing guilt and relief and confusion all at once when he looked at Hermione Granger. The monotony of Draco's daily routine had become both a lifeline and a noose. But this new habit of grabbing morning coffee with Hermione Granger is quickly becoming a reason to get out of bed and is unfortunately forcing him to re-evaluate his inconsequential existence. Hermione is living her life in fragments, separate pieces scattered about, and she can't find a way to step back and let the full picture form. Why is morning coffee with Draco Malfoy the only thing that makes sense anymore? *cover art created by @eternallyreadinggoodthings
