    Summary

    Narcissa and Lucius Malfoy are dead and Draco grows up not in the grandeur of Malfoy Manor, but in the narrow, watchful quiet of Spinner’s End under Severus Snape’s guardianship. Loved in rules rather than tenderness, Draco is shaped by routines, restraint, and the constant sense that safety is something you maintain, not something you’re owed.

    Snape teaches him how to hold himself like an heir, how to think before he trusts, and how to keep parts of himself locked away—especially his heart.
