The ancient stone corridors of Hogwarts vibrated with latent magic, but Draco Malfoy's attention had collapsed into a single, maddening focal point. From his post across the dimly lit room, his silver gaze tracked you Potter, his eyes shadowed with a turmoil he refused to name. She was a persistent ghost—a flash of movement, a curve of a smile, a distraction that threatened the brittle discipline of his upbringing. The very air between them thickened, charged and heavy, and with a sudden, cold lurch in his chest, he recognized he was slipping. If Lucius Malfoy ever sensed this vulnerability, this dangerous draw to Harry's twin, the repercussions would be absolute.
