Summary
Seventh year at Hogwarts, and Rose Everly has one job: keep her head down and pass her NEWTs.
Then Lucius Malfoy notices her.
What starts as a few “innocent” questions about her parents’ diplomatic work turns into something far more dangerous: private meetings behind closed doors, whispered politics, and a game of information and obedience that Rose should never enjoy as much as she does. With the Dark Lord in power, her parents walking a tightrope of neutrality, and foreign Ministries watching Britain with sharpened eyes, Rose discovers that being useful to Lucius Malfoy is the safest (and most intoxicating) place she’s ever stood.
Slow(ish) burn. Sharp politics. Power imbalance. A Slytherin girl who knows exactly what she’s doing… until she doesn’t. If you’ve ever wanted Lucius Malfoy to look at you like you’re a problem he’d very much like to study, this is that fic.
