    Fractured by War

    The war has changed everything. By fifth year at Hogwarts, nothing resembles the school they once knew. Classes have become battle training, friendships are tested daily, and danger lurks behind every corridor. Against all odds, Draco Malfoy has abandoned the darkness he was raised in, secretly joining forces with Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley to fight against Voldemort from within. But carrying the weight of betrayal, fear, and impossible expectations begins to tear him apart. The one person who has always been his safe place—his girlfriend—watches helplessly as Draco slowly slips away. He ignores her, pushes her aside, and buries himself in dangerous missions, convincing himself that distancing her is the only way to keep her alive. Every unanswered letter and cold glance chips away at the love they once shared, until she begins to wonder if she's already lost him. Then she disappears. Kidnapped by Death Eaters and hidden away in the darkest corners of the wizarding world, she becomes a prisoner subjected to months of relentless torture. Refusing to reveal the Order's secrets, she clings to the fading hope that someone—especially Draco—will come for her. When whispers of a mysterious captive reach the Order, Draco realizes the horrifying truth far too late. Consumed by guilt, he joins Harry, Hermione, and Ron on a desperate rescue mission that could cost them everything. But the girl they finally find is barely recognizable. Broken in body, haunted by unspeakable trauma, and struggling to remember the boy she once loved, she may never truly return. As the war reaches its bloody climax, Draco must face the consequences of the choices that drove her away. Saving her life may be possible—but healing her heart is another battle entirely. In a world where hope is fragile and love is scarred by sacrifice, Draco will discover that some wounds can't be healed with magic alone... and that redemption often comes at the h

    Ashes of the Forgotten

    The war was supposed to bring everyone together. Instead, it tore you apart. By the time seventh year ends, the once inseparable Slytherin group has become nothing more than strangers sharing the same common room. Pansy buries herself in survival. Astoria and Daphne keep their distance. Theodore, Lorenzo, and Blaise stop reaching out altogether. And Draco Malfoy—the boy who once swore he'd spend forever at her side—can barely look at her anymore. No one tells you why you’re suddenly alone. No one notices you’re slowly falling apart. So you stops trying to be noticed. When the Battle of Hogwarts begins, you walks into the castle expecting only one thing—to survive long enough to protect the people who abandoned her anyway. But fate has other plans. A curse meant for someone else collides with you, tearing through you with enough force to leave her moments from death. As the battle rages around you, everyone believes she's another casualty of the war. Everyone... Except one remaining Death Eater. Before anyone can reach you, you disappears. Hidden away while the wizarding world celebrates Voldemort's defeat, she's kept alive for one cruel purpose: revenge. Broken, tortured, and barely clinging to life, she spends months wondering why no one came for her... why the people she loved never looked hard enough. Back at Hogwarts, Draco can't escape the memory of watching your fall. Guilt consumes him as he realizes too late that pushing her away was the greatest mistake of his life. The friends who once ignored her are forced to confront the truth—that while they were busy surviving the war, you had been surviving something far worse. When whispers begin to surface that one prisoner may have escaped the final battle alive, hope ignites where grief once settled. Finding you is only the beginning. Because the girl they rescue is no longer the one they left behind. You flinches from every touch. You trust no one.

    Dumb and Drunk

    It's the final night of fifth year at Hogwarts, and the Weasley twins have outdone themselves. Hidden away in an abandoned classroom, they've thrown the biggest inter-house party the castle has ever seen. Music echoes through enchanted walls, drinks flow freely, and for one night, Gryffindors and Slytherins pretend they're not sworn enemies. No one knows your biggest secret. For nearly a year, you've been in a forbidden relationship with Draco Malfoy. Behind closed doors and stolen glances in empty corridors, you've built something real—something worth risking everything for. As the night winds down, a small group gathers for a game of Truth or Dare. It starts harmless enough, filled with laughter and teasing, until Pansy Parkinson flashes a knowing smirk. "Draco," she says, "I dare you to kiss Astoria Greengrass." The room falls silent. Your heart pounds as Draco's eyes meet yours from across the circle. For a brief moment, you think he'll refuse. You think he'll choose you. Instead... He stands. He walks over to Astoria. And he kisses her. In a single heartbeat, every promise he ever made shatters. The room erupts in cheers, but all you hear is the sound of your own heart breaking. The question is no longer whether your secret relationship can survive. It's whether you'll ever be able to forgive him.

    Back To The Start

    Four years ago, Draco Malfoy's world fell apart. For years, she had been the only person who ever truly saw beyond the Malfoy name. Since their third year at Hogwarts, {y/n} had stood beside him through whispered rumors, impossible expectations, and the crushing weight of a family legacy he could never escape. She was his safe place—the one person who believed there was still good in him, even when he couldn't see it himself. But love wasn't enough to silence the darkness closing in. As the burden of his family's allegiance to Voldemort grew heavier during sixth year, Draco began to unravel. Fear turned into anger, and anger found its easiest target. In one devastating argument, he lashed out at the person he loved most, spitting cruel words he never meant. Words designed to push her away before she could see how broken he truly was. She left in tears. When seventh year began, her seat in the Great Hall remained empty. She had transferred to another school without a goodbye, leaving behind nothing but silence. Draco searched for answers, but no one would tell him where she'd gone. By the time the war ended, she had become nothing more than a memory he replayed every night. For four years, he searched. Every Ministry registry, every Quidditch match, every social gathering—he looked for any sign that she was alive and happy, hoping for one chance to tell her the truth. To apologize. To explain that every hateful word had come from fear, not from his heart. Then, during one of Theodore Nott's lavish parties, the impossible happened. The room seemed to freeze as the doors opened. Walking in arm in arm with Pansy Parkinson—as though they'd never spent years apart—was {y/n}. She looked older, more confident, effortlessly beautiful. She laughed at something Pansy whispered, completely unaware that across the room Draco had forgotten how to breathe. Then his eyes caught the glimmer on her left hand. An engagement ring. But that won’t stop Draco Malfoy.

    What Death Couldn’t Keep

    During the Battle of Hogwarts, Draco Malfoy watched the love of his life die in his arms. No spell, no potion, and no amount of magic could save her. Forced to let her go, he spent the next four years haunted by the memory of the girl he couldn't protect. Then, on the day of an important Ministry gala, everything changes. Standing among a respected wizarding family is the impossible—a young woman with the same face, the same eyes, and the same voice as the witch he buried years ago. But when Draco approaches her, she has no idea who he is. She doesn't remember Hogwarts. She doesn't remember the war. She doesn't remember loving him. To her, this is the first time they've ever met. As Draco struggles to uncover the truth, he discovers her family is hiding secrets that reach far deeper than a simple case of lost memories. Was she truly brought back from the dead? Was her death an elaborate deception? Or has someone rewritten her past—and erased every trace of the life they once shared? With old enemies watching, political tensions rising inside the Ministry, and memories threatening to resurface, Draco must decide whether fighting to make her remember is worth risking the fragile new life she's built... especially if remembering could destroy her all over again.
