When your parents announce they’re leaving the country for diplomatic business over winter break, you’re less than thrilled to learn you’ll be staying at Malfoy Manor—a favor between old pure-blood family friends. You expect endless etiquette lessons, icy silence, and Draco Malfoy’s usual smug attitude, but something comes along that changes everything between you and Draco.
You spent months watching Draco Malfoy from the shadows—memorizing his habits, following his every move, and finding excuses to be near him. You thought you knew everything about him… until you discovered something that made you question whether you were ever the only one watching.
Y/n thought Draco Malfoy was finally behind her—until Theodore Nott starts flirting his way into her life. As old feelings resurface and jealousy grows, Y/n must decide whether her future lies with Theo or the boy she never truly stopped loving.
Y/n is used to playing boys left and right. She’s gorgeous, model material, they’re easy to get. They’re just entertainment to her. Toys. It never goes beyond a kiss a though. When she formally meets draco she thinks it will be the usual thing but when she gets to know him, it’s a bit different. She doesn’t feel the same way she usually does with other boys. They go to the same school but she never actually acknowledges him. At first he doesn’t budge but they start becoming friends because their families are friends. They formally meet at a ball, set up by the malfoys, at the manor. A couple weeks later the malfoys invite them for a weekend get away at their home.
you and draco have never really gotten along, never spoke properly, atleast not outside hogwarts. Your family’s have always been connected, business, relationships, and you have the same friend group. But when graduation dates come closer, you two are arranged, together. Both your family’s want you together. The only problem? You both hate eachother. You receive do task together, attend parties together, until you begin growing feelings. Lingering looks, jealousy, repressed feelings, anger, resentment, all lead to the event.
Y/N’s costar, Draco Malfoy, has never hidden his jealousy well. Between pointed comments, lingering tension, and increasingly obvious hints, everyone notices—especially Y/N’s boyfriend. After one unforgettable night in Paris, keeping their complicated dynamic under control becomes nearly impossible.
Everyone at Hogwarts knew that if you found Draco Malfoy, Y/N was never far behind. But when Theodore Nott arrives, everything begins to change. Some feelings stay hidden for too long… and some realizations come when it’s already too late.
