The calm at Hogwarts is only a disguise—underneath, fear reigns, and the Dark Lord’s return is an open, terrifying truth. Harry Potter carries the heaviest burden: hunting Horcruxes, haunted by loss, and paralyzed by an unspoken love for Y/n that war cannot afford to nurture. He keeps his feelings hidden to protect her, terrified that showing how much she matters will make her a target—yet that is exactly what happens. When Y/n is taken in the dead of night while guarding their camp, she wakes bound within Malfoy Manor’s cold walls, alongside Y/n, surrounded by Death Eaters and Bellatrix Lestrange’s madness. Voldemort knows exactly what he’s doing: Kiara is not just a prisoner—she is bait. She is the one thing that will force Harry out of the shadows, willing to sacrifice everything to save her. With their lives, love, and the fate of everything hanging in the balance, every breath feels like it could be their last.
