Summary: “We can't all be heroes, because somebody has to sit on the side and applaud when they go by.”
Warning(s): Mpreg


I should stop warning Mpreg. Mpreg is not a warning, it's a bonus. ^^

It's quite a surprise for Harry to find out that wizards can get pregnant, and even more so when he finds out because Draco is pregnant. However, when Harry goes missing during an Auror mission Draco discovers there's more to it than pregnancy and it's his unborn child who helps him to find him.

It's very sweet and very dramatic, it's going to keep you on the edge of your seat, I can tell you that, but you can trust this author with your heart. She takes Harry and Draco on a journey, but she will never leave them broken (that's a quote!). *sighs happily*

Summary: Draco returns to London to help the Ministry decipher a spell, but things aren’t quite as simple as they seem.


This story, I found, has a very good balance between the plots. In one hand, we have the mysterious spell Draco is working on, and on the other hand the development between Harry and Draco's relationship.

I love how very fallible both are here; they make mistakes and mess up, and at the same time they accept those mistakes, and learn from them.

The mystery of the spell, the nature of it, and how it unravels really touch Draco in a very personal way, it makes him so very human, because while dealing with all those emotions this brings to him, he allows himself to need Harry and be comforted by him.

Oh, and the sex… super hot. There's this blowjob scene… well, just read it and you'll know why I can't finish that sentence. ^^

It's an amazing story.

It's labelled AU in the sense that some secondary characters who should be alive are dead, and some who should be dead are alive. Also, there's a tiny bit of Draco/Blaise (non graphic).
