Draco Malfoy has a mission he can’t share and a conscience he can’t silence. Prefect nights paired with Hermione Granger should make everything harder—so why do those quiet corridors start to feel like the only place he sees a path forward? Across sixth and seventh year, barbed quips give way to fragile trust as an unlikely alliance threatens to reroute the Second Wizarding War—if the boy who made all the wrong choices can make one right one at last.Expect a medium-burn Dramione threaded with rich magical lore, new twists on familiar canon, alternating POV, explicit consent, and the slow stitching of hurt into comfort.Rating: ExplicitArchive Warning: Creator Chose Not To Use Archive WarningsCategory: F/MFandom: Harry Potter – J.K.
