Harry Potter is down bad for Y/n—the Slytherin girl everyone knows but no one dares to touch. She’s brilliant, scary, untouchable, Snape’s favorite, and from the Gaunt family, which only makes her more intimidating. She doesn’t take orders, doesn’t sugarcoat, and absolutely dominates in duels. They live in completely different worlds, but fifth year forces them into the same classes—and with the Yule Ball coming up, Harry starts thinking… maybe he actually has a chance.
