*This Fanfic is a hot mess in desperate need of a rewrite. full of plot holes and missing details (READ AT YOUR OWN RISK) I WILL be doing a rewrite within the next 2-3 months but until then...you've been warned*
He was chaos, he was revelry...Harry Potter's life takes a sharp turn the moment he's sorted into Slytherin. Gone is the golden boy the wizarding world expects, replaced by a sharp-tongued, chaos-driven troublemaker who finds himself surrounded by cunning housemates and unexpected alliances. Draco Malfoy doesn't know what to make of Harry-Slytherin's newest enigma with a knack for testing Draco's perfect Malfoy image. Their bickering is genuine, their arguments cutting, and yet, something about Harry's rebellious smirk and defiant attitude keeps Draco coming back for more.
Over seven years at Hogwarts, Harry slowly dismantles the walls Draco's family has built around him. But as Draco's feelings grow, so does the pressure from his father, Lucius Malfoy, to stay in line and keep Harry at arm's length. Draco can't choose his family-or so he thinks. When it all comes to a head, and the world sees the truth, Draco finds himself standing before his father with one final defiance: "But Father, I love him." A slow-burn enemies-to-lovers romance filled with biting banter, explosive arguments, and a love so undeniable it shakes the foundations of the Malfoy name. *I don't own Harry Potter*

Roommates (Drarry)
"Yeah, um, I..." But the lingering effects of Felix wouldn't let me lie. "I do. I really like you." "Not platonically, then." "Not platonically." "Well, that's lucky." He said. "Because I think I really like you too, Draco Malfoy." "If this is a joke," I began, not believing my ears, "then get lost and I never want to talk to you again. If it-" "It's not a j-" "Let me finish, Potter. If it's not a joke, then shut up and kiss me already and stop stalling." -------------------------- Draco and Harry are back for an eighth year of Hogwarts to finish their NEWTs.

LABYRINTH of HEARTS (DRARRY Romance)
Headcanon Premise: Harry and Draco were always in love or at least attracted to each other, even during (and partly because) of Draco's bullying. This story is 99% canon-compliant and fits in as supplemental material for the original books. Toxic love story with a happy ending. Hogwarts Years 1 - 8 ⚠️Hogwarts Era smut⚠️ [Available also on AO3 and FF] WIP Status: Letters and Foreword were revised; Year 8 is being prepared. This is a Harry/Draco romance set in the canon HP universe, covering all seven years of schooling as a series of Memory Vials. This fic is presented more like Deleted Scenes than a Rewrite, following the plot of their romance instead of Harry's quest to defeat Voldemort. Everyone is mostly in character (hopefully), and Draco is the troubled little shit you know and love but with more dimension added to his character. A movie depiction might be preferred in my version, but it's recommended you read along with the original books to avoid loss of context, unless you read them already, which should be enough. This fic is roughly 99% canon compliant, while allowing for artistic license and changes here and there, also scrapping the original epilogue. Content Warning: language, smut, mature themes and situations, alcohol/substance use, homophobic bullying and harassment, conversion therapy, morally ambiguous situations, tactical omniscient head-hopping, and pretentious poetry. I'm American, so expect accidental Americanisms and ignorant mistakes, but I did my best to use some British-English.

Serpentine
I wasn't supposed to stand out at Hogwarts. I was supposed to blend in, finish the year quietly, and stay out of trouble. Then he looked at me. Draco Malfoy - the name everyone whispered like a warning. Sharp, quiet, and unreadable. The kind of boy who carried power like it belonged to him, and sin like it didn't matter. He shouldn't have cared that I existed. And maybe he didn't. But every time our eyes met, it felt like he was trying to see through me - like he already knew something I didn't. People say he's cold, cruel, dangerous. They're right. But that's not the part that scares me. What scares me is how much I want to find out what he's hiding beneath it. It isn't love. Not yet. It's something darker - something that feels like falling without the promise of being caught.
He is not a slut
AU Premise Timeline Divergence: Sirius never dies in the battle at the Department of Mysteries. Found Family: Sirius and Remus eventually marry. Together, they adopt Harry, who carries heavy scars from abuse at the Dursleys-not just physical and mental, but sexual trauma later in his adolescence. Unexpected Allies: The Malfoys are fully reformed and wealthy, helping Harry escape the Dursleys' influence and later supporting him emotionally. No dark-side alignment here. Love Story: As Harry grows and heals in this safe, nurturing environment, he forms a bond with Draco, which gradually blossoms into love. --- Character Dynamics 1. Harry: Deeply traumatized but resilient. Initially distrustful of adults, especially those in positions of power or affection. Finds comfort in Sirius' rebellious warmth, Remus' gentle patience, and Draco's quiet loyalty. 2. Sirius: Protective, witty, slightly reckless. Forms a strong parental bond with Harry, giving him freedom and unconditional love. Helps Harry navigate trust and intimacy issues stemming from his trauma. 3. Remus: Calm, thoughtful, and nurturing. Works with Harry to provide structure and emotional safety. Acts as a stabilizing force in the household, often mediating Sirius' impulsive tendencies. 4. Draco: Reformed, proud, and cautious due to his family history. Initially keeps his distance but grows closer to Harry after witnessing his vulnerability and resilience. His love story with Harry is gradual, tender, and marked by emotional trust-building. 5. Malfoys (Lucius & Narcissa): Wealthy, influential, morally upright in this AU. Help rescue Harry and provide logistical and emotional support. Develop a unique, respectful relationship with Harry as a chosen family memberComplete
Infatuated-Draco Malfoy x OC
Infatuation is never a good thing, especially for newly found deatheater, Draco Malfoy. Feelings of any sort, for any one, would only put his heart at risk of being broke.

(18+ story- swearing, violence, mentions of suicide, alcohol use, sexual content) I do not own any characters except for my original character. The plot loosely follows that of the Harry Potter franchise but a lot is changed to accommodate my character.Complete
Lost Memories // Drarry
"You're such a prick! I knew you hadn't really changed. You're just back to your old ways, torturing me." Harry can still feel Draco's hand around his arm. Their breath mingles as Harry's eyes rove around Malfoy's face. "You probably enjoy it too." "Immensely." They're so close that Harry could count Draco's eyelashes if he wanted to. "You're the worst," Harry gasps out between breaths. His heartbeat pounds overwhelmingly loud in his ears as he loses his senses. His eyes drop to Draco's lips again, and he swallows loudly, interrupting the silence that is only filled with the sound of their heavy breathing. "Fuck you Malfoy." ---- Harry is tired of being enemies with Draco. He has more important things to worry about. The most pressing of those being his real enemy, Voldemort, who is now at large. And then Draco starts acting suspicious and Harry wants to know the truth. He always tries to believe the best in people, but Harry is starting to wonder if there is any good left in Draco at all. ---- Disclaimer: I do not own Harry Potter or any of the characters.

Redemption | Drarry (Old version. Incomplete)
Sixth year at Hogwarts was supposed to be just another step toward the future, but for Harry Potter, it became something else entirely. A sudden shift in his magic, an unshakable instinct gnawing at the edges of his mind, and a pull toward something-or someone-he couldn't explain left him questioning everything. Struggling to make sense of his inheritance while keeping it hidden, Harry does his best to push through as the same old Harry. But when secrets unravel and the past refuses to stay buried, he starts to wonder if he's ever truly known who he is. Years later, the war is over, but life hasn't quieted. Now a Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, Harry finds himself crossing paths with Draco Malfoy-no longer the snide Slytherin prince, but a sharp-witted Magical Compliance Officer enforcing the very laws that hold their world together. With old tensions lingering and a history that neither can ignore, they're forced to navigate a world that refuses to stand still. The past may have shaped them, but the future? That's still up for debate. If you want to skip the hogwarts part, just go to ARC II 《THIS STORY IS CANCELED. THERE WILL BE A REWRITE UP SOON. SORRY IF YOU ALL WASTED YOUR TIME WAITING FOR THIS. THE REWRITE IS BETTER I PROMISE.》 ///////////// ⚠️This story contains: Sexual references Bad language Angst Major character death SmutComplete
