Everyone expects Scorpius Malfoy to be like his father. Cold. Untouchable. Dangerous. Instead, Scorpius is awkward smiles, late-night overthinking, messy blond hair after sleepless nights, and a heart far too soft for the name he carries. He’s spent his entire life trying to prove that being a Malfoy does not make him cruel. Then he meets Y/N. For the first time, someone sees him—not the rumors, not the family history, not the shadow of the war. Just him. And somehow, against all odds, Scorpius falls hopelessly in love. But loving a Malfoy has never been simple. When Y/N asks to meet his father, Scorpius begins spiraling immediately. Because no matter how much Draco Malfoy has changed, Malfoy Manor still carries ghosts within its walls, and Scorpius is terrified that once Y/N sees where he comes from, she’ll realize he’s too complicated to love after all. As old wounds, family expectations, and buried fears begin resurfacing, Scorpius must decide whether he’s willing to let someone fully into his world—or keep pushing people away before they can leave him first. A soft, emotional slow-burn romance about love, legacy, and learning that you are more than the name you inherited.
