SYNOPSIS
Alexandria Kaplan had been useless all her life. She was raised by hatred where there was meant to be love, and now she was condemned to watch all those around her be felled by unstoppable cruelty. Draco Malfoy was bound by his loyalty. It was known that out of self-preservation, the man wouldn't hesitate to burn the world down, even if it meant living the rest of his life alone. Loneliness was familiar to both of them, after all.
The struggle between power and humanity was never-ending and one that they knew well. It was impossible to have both, and it was impossible for there to be a balance.
Sometimes, however, even the most dependable truths could be proven false. The sky was down, the black was white, the bad were good, perhaps — and only perhaps — power and humanity could coexist.
Maybe they could be found where they were least expected. Where they never existed at all.

I do not own Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy, any such related characters, nor the ideas of the Harry Potter Universe. All other characters are my creation, as well as the plot. Constructive criticism is encouraged, but be nice to me, because I'm not as tough as I like to think I am.
Another disclaimer: I did not steal the surname "Kaplan" from hellenwilder . She very generously offered it to me <3.
This book takes place after the Battle of Hogwarts, but it is not fully canon compliant. I can't say much more without spoiling what I've written.
