Content/Warning(s): Dom/sub, praise kink.

I was so excited to see this story. There really aren't enough H/D praise!Kink.

And let me tell you, this story is wonderful.

Draco is a Dom in Pansy's club, and he's very surprised to see Harry Potter in his room ready to submit to him. As the summary says, Draco is really good at figuring out what people need, and soon he realises what works for Harry, and boy, it's beautiful.

It's more than that, because Harry is not ready to accept what he is, what he wants, what he needs, so at the beginning he tries to resist, not Draco, he submits willingly, but he tries to sort of deny the effect Draco had. We see Harry trying with substandard Dom and soon enough he contacts Draco again. And so they start something, they start playing and scening very often, and it's beautiful, the way he submits, the way Draco knows what to say and what to do, and what started as a convenient relationship of sorts becomes something so much more. You can say it kind of scares Draco in a way, he's not ready to face everything Harry means to him.

I don't want to say no more, because you have to see them together to understand, but let me say again, it's gorgeous. :)
