When Y/N steps into the Berkshire estate for Christmas, she expects cozy fires, laughter, and the warmth of her best friend Perle’s family. What she doesn’t expect is to be thrown into a world of sharp smiles, biting wit, and the kind of tension that makes the air thick enough to cut with a knife. Perle’s father, Lorenzo Berkshire, is a man of old-world charm and even older connections—his inner circle includes the infamous “Slytherin Boys”: Draco Malfoy, the silver-tongued heir with a glare that could freeze hell over, and Mattheo Riddle, the enigmatic, dangerously charming man with a past as murky as his intentions. From the moment Y/N steps into their orbit, Draco’s smirk is permanent, his jabs as precise as they are infuriating. And Mattheo? Oh, he watches. Always watching. With a smirk that promises things she shouldn’t want to know. But as the holiday wears on, forced proximity, shared drinks, and the kind of chemistry that ignites like a spark in dry tinder begin to blur the lines. Draco’s insults turn to teasing—the kind that makes her stomach flip. Mattheo’s games become less about control and more about want. And Y/N? She’s caught between the frost of Draco’s pride and the fire of Mattheo’s obsession.
