Draco is desperate and in love… |Chapter 5 and 6 have been uploaded| Non desistas, non exieris.
~ After what must have been an ungodly amount of firewhisky the pain slowly went away. This was a perfect analogy for his live, he thought bitter. Here he sat, alone, in pain, after having been tortured, both physical and emotionally, while Theo and Blaise went to bed with their soulmates he sat here, alone. There was no one coming for him. Nobody cared, nobody asked and nobody saw the pain. His friends all played this game in pairs, but not him. He was playing alone, alone against the whole fucking world. A bitter laugh escaped his lips, as he leaned in to take another drag from his ciggy. That was more than difficult, as he saw simultaneously two and no cigarettes in his hand. Then he found his mouth and breathed the smoke. He had smoked so much today, his lungs stared burning. But he loved the pain. It let the pain of his soul disappear. It was typical, that he loved the girl, the dark Lord had selected to be the surrogate to his heir. Of course, he was the idiot. How could it be different? It had been like that his whole live. Why did he have to fall in love with her? Why did she have to be on the other side of this war instead of sitting beside him and holding his hand? Why did there have to be a war at all? He took another swig out of the bottle. I didn’t matter. His soul was sold to the dark Lord. There was nothing left of him to love. He wasn’t even sure if there was something left of him at all.~
Chapter 5 & 6 have been uploaded and chapter seven is going to follow soon.
It is a dark fic, Voldemort wins the war, but there is not real violence between Hermione and Draco. He knows from the beginning on, that he is in love and wants to save her. Both of them are deeply traumatized by the war and everything they have lived through, so it’s sad and heartbreaking, but it is going to be HEA as it is still a WIP.
There is no rape or noncon, no violence, he has to do some things to keep her and himself alive but it is not going to traumatize her further. The Story Stands at 19,985 Words but is going to be longer… We are now at 6 Chapers and I think it is going to be 30/40 Chapters long.
(There are some explicit descriptions of violence in this story, just not between Hermione and Draco. Generally no rape or noncon though)
