Part One: Nothing to Lose

Some call him arrogant, some call him insensitive, some even call him evil. But truthfully, Draco Malfoy is none of these things. Draco Malfoy is not his father. Taking place during JK Rowling's 'Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows', we experience what it's truly like to be Draco Malfoy. We experience what it's truly like to be alone; we experience what it truly takes to love a Slytherin.

If you have ever thought that all Slytherins can never know love and all Slytherins crave darkness—you were dead wrong.

Seeing how Astoria Greengrass was not a character that was really developed in the original series, I took the liberty of making her into somebody who would I thought would be good for Draco.
