Read that summary and tell if that story doesn't intrigue you. ^^ It's really entertaining, there's so many funny bits in Draco's POV, his inner voice is amazing, and Harry's, well, there's only so much denial Harry can talk himself into, yeah? And who doesn't love in-denial!Harry?

It's really wonderful, there's humour, a bit of misunderstandings, some and sexy visions. Lovely and so much fun to read.

Summary: Harry’s a bit of a mess, despite a successful Quidditch career. Draco’s not too much of a mess, but believes his life is as good as it’s likely to get. Both want something more. Fate is going to help them out with that.


This is a lovely story, so fun and easy to read. I started it and before I knew it I had devoured the whole 25k of it.

It's about a bond that manifested on Harry's 27th birthday, bounding him to his soulmate, but Draco, thinking Harry rejected the very idea of the bond, doesn't come forward as being his bondmate and actually tries to block it.

There's misunderstandings and a lot of longing and pining, and Draco being very difficult, and really, filled with all those things we love to read about. It's lovely.

Summary: Harry is a Seer, with a particular affinity for speaking to the dead, but this comes at a price he’s slowly killing himself to pay.
Warning(s): Drug Use, Addiction


This is such a great story. God. You see, Harry is a Seer, something about him dying and coming back allows him to speak to the dead, to have this empathy of sorts. And the only way he can deal with, well, everything, his life, his friend, his Sight, is being high on Potions and pills. But you see, it's so fantastically well written, it's like diving into Harry's mind and understanding everything he's going through. Sensing his friends' fear of him, his loneliness, the pain of feeling himself disconnected from others.

And then there's Draco, who is his contact, who grounds him and his magic while he's on a trance, who wants to help him, to be there for Harry, if only Harry lets him.

It's angsty, yes, but it's such a gorgeous story, about giving chances and allowing yourself to be helped and even loved, too. It's beautiful and hopeful, and lordy, it's got some of the most delicious sex I've read.

This is such a fun, sexy story. You see, Harry and Draco got drunk together. When they wake up (also together) discover they are married, and, well, in Draco's case, screwed, literally. :D

Summary: Five years ago Draco disappeared out of Harry’s life. Harry has never believed Draco died that night; he was sure he would have known because they were bonded. When one Deacon Malloy moves in down the street, Harry discovers that both he and his friends were right. Draco’s alive, but is he still Draco? Harry is sure of one thing: their bond is true. All that remains is to convince his husband.
Warning(s): Mpreg (only in past tense)


This is such a beautiful memory loss story (my favourite).

Draco disappeared after going on a mission, but Harry knows he's alive through the bond him and Draco had, and now, five years later when a Deacon Malloy turns on Harry's doorstep he'll have a second chance; to fall in love with the man Draco became in these fives years, and to find his husband again.

It's beautiful and sweet, and just the right touch of angsty, seeing Draco and knowing he doesn't remember Harry or their son, but knowing he feels so drawn to him and Scorpius, this connection between them, and finally accepting: It's about that, accepting that things are different now, and they might never be exactly as they were, but they are together, and at the end, that's what matters.

It's a lovely love story about second chances that you shouldn't miss.

Summary: When Draco discovers a new entry on the Malfoy family tree, he confronts Harry. Neither of them realised they would find happiness together after a random encounter with a stranger.
Warning(s): Mpreg


This is a very sweet story, very fluffy but with the right touch of flangst to make you go all awwww over it.

This story starts when Draco storms into Harry's office, accusing him of being pregnant with his child, even though they had never been together. But what Harry nor Draco remember at first is that they were with someone at a Ministry Masque, and of course, it turned to be the other. And now, as a result of Harry being pregnant they are legally and magically bonded.

As the story progress, so does Harry's relationship with Draco, and they go from compromising in their positions about the way they'll raise their child to enjoying each other's company. Very sweet.

Summary: During a detention, Harry and Draco get locked in a strange room together overnight.
When they escape the next morning, they discover they are alone.
Love, angst and adventure abound as they struggle to survive in an empty world.
Warning(s): Elements of AU


This story has a really cool premise. During a detention, Harry and Draco travel through a light and wake up in a world empty of people.

It moves through several years in which they fall in love, explore this lonely world, and experiment with magic. They both become very powerful, and they learn to love living like this, just the two of them, but then comes the moment in which Harry has to come back and face Voldemort once for all.

I really loved the men they became while they were exploring the solitary world, and their bond and love are beautiful.

It's really interesting, and it's one of those known-by-all classis in the fandom.

Summary: A remix of the story of Draco’s The tattoo, which is a lovely piece by the incredibly talented mijeli. Draco tries to cover the Mark, but the results aren’t quite what he’d hoped. Or, perhaps at the end of the day, they’re more like what he and Harry both hoped after all.


I love bond stories, but long before I realised this was a bonding!fic I knew this story was going to be lovely.

Draco, in an effort to cover his Dark Mark, gets a tattoo over it, however, as the days pass he is more and more pain until it becomes excruciating, and it's only Harry's touch that brings comfort.

It's very sweet the way their feelings develop, how they settle into a routine while being in such proximity, how they bicker and joke and fall in love. Hurt/Comfort all the way.

Summary: As the world heals post-war, Draco tries to avoid Harry Potter like the black plague, and Harry pretends Draco Malfoy doesn't exist. So why is it that they keep on crossing paths? Featuring noble winged steeds, moving houses, bizarre coincidences, ancient technology, feeble excuses, harsh honesty, Miss Flappington, and words from the past.


This story is very surprising. It's filled with little twists that you don't see coming at all. Even now that you know they will be coming, I believe you'll be surprised.

It all comes down to a spell of sorts. At first it seems they are meeting by coincidence, but soon enough they discover it's a bonding spell that keeps drawing to each other, first to meet at random, but before long they can't even be at different places. This coexistence makes Draco to face his actions, his feelings, not just his vulnerability, he's very IC, I think, but he has to face himself in the end.

And it's so, so good; the plot, the writing, the revelations, god, the sex. I have to warn you though; it has an open/ambiguous ending, but don't let that stop you, it's really quite incredible.

Summary: In the dangerous days after Voldemort’s fall, Harry struggles to find a way to be with Draco—again. As the magical world threatens to die all around him, it might be more unreachable than even he believes. Includes dying wards, dying beasts, and love struggling to live; sentient magic, wandlore, Founder lore, potion lore, and ward lore; and of course there is Zacharias Smith to ruin everything, as usual.


The magical theory on this story is outstanding. It's going to awe you in ways I can't even explain.

The magical wards in Britain are falling, and the Wizarding world will be exposed if they fail entirely. Only when you read it you'll realise the seriousness of this matter.

Harry and Draco share a connection with their wands. They've been together in dreams, for months, yet Draco refuses to accept that, even though it happened in dreams, it was real.

But this is not for the entirety of the story, not even most of it, because there comes a moment in which is undeniable, and Draco, both of them, embrace it, and it's beautiful, with this come some serious delicious smut and romance for our romantic hearts.

Yet this story it's so much more than this. It's about the magical way of living, protecting their world. The sacrifices to be made, and the brilliancy of the plot coming together.

Give it a chance, a long story is always a risk, but this story is so clever, tinted with friendship, longing, love and sacrifices. You won't regret it. It's incredible.

Summary: Harry and Neville are looking for the infamous Dragon Lily, a Dark witch active throughout Europe and Asia. Instead, they find the Tuxedo Angel, a beautiful witch performing in Rome. Harry quickly discovers that the Angel is not what she seems, and fights his attraction to her, while both he and the Angel are drawn into a web created by ancient magic that pulls them together, whether they are ready for it or not.
Warning(s): dubcon (as inspired by Alpha/Omega dynamics), mpreg, crossdressing, genderbending


This is one of those stories that has everything one loves in a fic. There's a mystery, there's action, a bond, protective and possessive!Harry, sexy sex and mpreg, and everything works perfectly.

Harry has been looking for a witch, Dragon Lily in Rome, Harry meets the Tuxedo Angel, a singer, and he feels simply drawn to her, only, she turns to be Draco. Now, unknown to both of them, Draco has a curse (or sorts) that when the last of the Malfoys (who is inclined that way) meets his mate, he will change into a woman will be able to carry an heir once they complete the bond, which they do, quite sexily and vigorously too!

And while this is happening to them, there's the whole mystery of who is the Dragon Lily, and what they want with Draco.

It's really enthralling and exciting to read; the way the bond works, allowing them to find each other, Harry trying to resist the way he feels about Draco, all this tied up to Harry's investigation about his case, and Neville being the voice of reason.

It's fun, sexy, compelling and very satisfying, the way it ends, romantic and sweet. I loved it. I know you will as well.

Title: Nova Cupiditas

Summary: Nova cupiditas—the curse that makes the victim desire someone they hate. There is no cure, and the consequences grow increasingly violent the more the desire is denied. And now someone has cursed Draco Malfoy to desire Harry Potter.
Warning(s): Attempted rape, issues of consent, self-mutilation


One of the many things that make this story so fantastic, is the slow way in which Draco loses his mind. It happens very quickly, as in manner of days, but it's slow, the progression from lust to need to, what it seems, love and worship of Harry from Draco.

There are times when Draco is sure the curse is not in action and he's truly in love with Harry. And Harry, it's not that he is confused and ready to believe Draco, he knows better, he knows it's the curse talking, making Draco say and do and feel those things, but at the same time it's so seducing and tempting to have someone who wants you with such intensity and devotion. So Harry, too, is constantly warring with himself, because he wants to help Draco, and at times it seems that giving in, even a little bit, will help, but then he remember it's only ever the curse, and it's maddening. And yes, Harry starts having feelings for Draco, which doesn't help the predicament they're into at all!

And then, even you, as a reader, start (sort of) doubting if Draco really loves Harry or it's just the spell. At times it's obvious it is the spell, but at times, you're sure it's the real thing.

The plot takes several twists and turns along the way (many of which are dark and violent) so it's a long journey until both Harry and Draco can be sure that what they're feeling is real.

Title: Broken Toy

Rating: NC 17
Word Count: 155,000 Approx.
Summary: After the war Harry’s not the same as he used to be. He has chosen the life of a recluse, although he is still famous, highly respected in the wizarding world, and honoured by the Ministry. His well-ordered life will be shaken by a reunion. Life will never be the same as before… (post HBP)
Warning(s): Violence, abuse, mentions of past non-con. (None of these between Harry and Draco)


This is such a gripping story, once I started I couldn't stop reading it.

The fic starts when Harry finds Draco working as a prostitute. He comes back looking for Draco and ends up buying Draco's contract from his pimp. But what Harry didn't know, is that in doing so he became Draco's owner. The story develops as we learn the extent of this "bond", this ownership, which is what it is, and the conspiracies behind such contracts. We learn everything Draco went through all these years and the consequences of all the exploitation he's suffered, how Draco came to be a whore, and we see Draco struggling with years of violence and abuse at the hands of his previous owners.

At the same time we have Harry, and Harry is a very complex character too. He has issues, many. He's still scarred about everything he went through during the war, he has problems controlling his magic and his temper, though he's very respected in the Magical World, and he's in denial about his sexuality, but it's not a blind denial, because he does acknowledge he is attracted to Draco. There is this incredible scene, the first time Draco touches Harry, and it's so bittersweet and sexy at the same time. My heart ached for Harry at that moment. It's gorgeous.

The title Broken Toy, I personally believe, it actually refers to both of them. Draco is broken, however, he's not broken in the sense that has no will and he's only a shadow of whom he used to be, he's still Draco Malfoy through and through, and it shows, but he's a damaged person who need someone to help him. And there's Harry, with many issues, who needs someone to love him.

Amidst all of this, they find each other, they truly find each other and at the end of the journey they find solace.

I also loved the way it was written, aside from this plot, which is so very engrossing, I really liked the writing itself, I loved the voice the author gave to both Harry and Draco.

As a note, there's Ginny bashing on this fic, and a bit of Weasley bashing (Fred, George and Ron, though Ron comes around). The story is mainly bottom Draco, but there are a couple of scenes with bottom!harry. I don't know why I mention it, I guess I know how important that's to some people, but in a 150K story one can hardly expect there's not switching, yeah? Still, there you go. ^^
