Summary: Draco found the nest down in the Manor’s cellars, while he was clearing them out.
This fic is so, so good! It starts right after the Malfoys flee the battle, and Draco begins to clear up the Mannor's cellars. There are Muggle prisoners, and bodies and it's terrible, and in one of the rooms, he discovers Nagini's nest. But after he was attacked by one of the snakes, he discovers there's one remaining egg, a very weak snake, harmless and nearly dying, which he can't bring himself to get rid of. This snake, Coil, as he named her, is actually pretty awesome, and it's with her help that Draco discovers Voldemort final revenge. He left a bomb-curse of sorts, that would trigger an explosion killing all Muggle-born if so much as one sets foot in Malfoy Mannor. Obviously he contact the Aurors and Harry, who comes with Draco to the Manor as his "prisoner" to help to dismantle the spell entwined with the wards.
They spend weeks and weeks together, and inevitably they are attracted to each other. They can't help it!
But that's not it, once they finally dismantle the spell (with a lot of help from Coil), Harry and Draco have still all these feelings for each other, only Harry can't commit to Draco because of their history, and Draco isn't willing to be Harry's bit on the side. Draco though, wants to marry, so he starts courting – there's some pretty awesome Wizarding and pureblood culture here – while Harry is wildly jealous.
Won't give (even more) details, but this story will surprise you. It's fun and exciting. :D

“You look like—like something out of fairy tales,” he groaned, running a hand over his face. . .
“I am something out of fairy tales!” Draco howled at him in fury. “I’m a fucking wizard! So are you! It’s no excuse for your fancying me!”
