This new world is intoxicating but everything keeps leading her back to the incident with the diary four years ago.Category: Works in Progress
This is perfect! I love all of it! I can't believe Draco's house is exactly as I had imagined it...
Your Ginny is wonderful, I love the way she laughs at everything, not taking any uncomfortable situation too seriously. I like her even better because I would do exactly the same. And you totally killed me with the "Where's Ginny? [...] Draco had Ginny pinned to his bed". I died. I also love that Voldy has a huge plan with these two, which means there's some darky stuff coming soon and I can't wait for it. This fic is like a gift for me, it has a lot of things I always wanted to read.
(Sorry I didn't give you a proper review the other day, I was reading it on my phone and It was kinda difficult to write).
Hugs!
Author's Response: Thankyou! I'm so glad you're still enjoying it, (I was so nervous about this chapter because they move so quickly and I wasn't sure if people would want more of a buildup). Ginny seems so free spirited and funny, she genuinely see's the humour in everything. And besides, it's such an absurd situation anyone would laugh!
It's definitely going to get darker as things go on, but i'm trying to keep the fluff going for as long as possible, they deserve a nice happy life...
"This fic is like a gift for me, it has a lot of things I always wanted to read." <-- I can't explain how much it means to me that you said this. This was the fic I always wanted to read as well. I've spent years planning it all and writing it in my head just because I couldn't read it elsewhere, and to know that sharing it means other people have been wanting it too is just incredible.
Thankyou so so much for reading and reviewing. It makes my week!

Oh my goodness this Gin n' Tonic shot almost killed me. Thank you, oh thank you. I'm becoming addicted to this story. Everything fits perfectly. You're giving canon a twisted but delightful turn of a screw. Tom is such a beautiful bastard... how I hate him, but adore him at the same time. He's amazingly portrayed here. It makes me feel drawn to him, too, and it's a wonderful feeling as a reader. I always wondered how little his relationship with Ginny was explored in fanfiction, especially when she's in her late teens and adult themes could be intertwined. And Tom is exactly the kind of character that can use sex as a weapon because of his manipulative nature. It also puts me into an internal conflict, because agh, I hate cheating. I've suffered miserably from it. Wouldn't wish for anyone to go through that, ever. And, strangely, I understand Ginny because I know exactly how she feels, how much she craves to get that sort of attention, that intimacy (now much more physical because of course, being older implies exploring adult stuff), that glimpse from the past when she was truly heard and truly happy because someone finally saw her and made her feel valuable. There's this obscure, consuming lust surrounding Tom that she can't fight. I know it's their past connection and the power of his magic working its way through her. However, I feel so sad for Draco. I love him in this story. But he seems too sweet for all this darkness... I'm afraid this might break him terribly. I'm really fond of him, I don't want him to get hurt,even though I've got the spoiler from the beginning and I don't want to get to that part. I might be wrong, though. I hope I'm wrong, ha. (Or maybe I'm just rambling now).
I'm loving this and can't wait for the next chapter. Thank you for sharing!!!
Bunny Hugs!!!
Author's Response: Oh thank you so much for this review! Honestly I kept referring back to it when ever I was writing and it kept me so motivated these last few weeks. I think this is the quickest I've ever updated because of it!
It's so hard because I Love Tom and I Love Draco and they can be really similar in many ways but I'm trying so hard to show their differences, and he's definitely too sweet and innocent for what's happening to him.
I've also been cheated on and it does things to you you can't imagine if you haven't been through it. I'd love to hear your theories on what's going to happen next!
Hope you enjoy this chapter just as much

It’s been just over ten years since the Battle of Hogwarts. Society has moved on but not in the utopic way everyone assumed it would. For Ginny Weasley, however, everything is going great until a season-ending fall derails her Quidditch career and forces her to reevaluate her life. It also forces her to realize that there’s more to Draco Malfoy than she ever thought—something Luna has been telling her for the past six years… This is what happens when Slytherins find themselves filling the roles of Gryffindors, Ravenclaws rule the art world, and Weasleys are unable to use magic—or at least, one Weasley can’t.Category: Works in Progress
This was a great first chapter. Your Ginny is showing some attitude, which I like a lot, and of course your "mysterious" Draco already has my heart. What else can I ask?
Oh, yes, please keep on writing *_*
Hugs!
Author's Response: Thanks! :D
After a long and loving relationship, Harry Potter decides to leave Ginny, in search of a new life in the Muggle world. This, as well as a long held secret caused a ten year nervous breakdown.Category: Works in Progress
A week after her 36th birthday, a trip to donate some toys to a preschool teaches her that her nurturing nature could potentially be a way to move forward and have a new and happy life.
Nooo poor Ginny..! But I'm so anxious to know what's going to happennnn!!
Draco and Ginny are the perfect Auror team. There isn't a case they can't solve, until the murder of Pansy Parkinson. With time on the side of their killer, and Ginny as his final conquest, they have to hope they'll be able to stop the murderer in time.Category: Works in Progress
This is, I think, the third time I read this fic and SHAME on me for not posting a review. So here it is.
I love gory stuff, so of course I was immediately drawn to your story. But not only that. It's this chapter. Particularly the way you make Draco and Ginny connect to each other. It happens so fast, but there's an underlying intensity that's building up. Like a fragile balance they're trying not to break. I know that there's of course this sexual tension between them, but it just doesn't feel only sexual, or at least only partially; there's something more into it. Something precious, innocent even. They're both so vulnerable and that's why they protect each other so tenderly. I love it.
I love Ginny's insecurities, how she thinks; she's so real. It kind of hits me, I suppose, because I've been there and you've managed to portray it so well. (Well, I'm still there, and yes, I know I don't need a Draco to look into my eyes and say that's all bullshxt, but yeah, I wouldn't complain if there was one, haha). Seriously though, this is one of the most tender moments I've ever read in fics.
Agh, I just want to hug them both.
And you, for writing this. It's so nice when a writer makes you feel like this, so warm and happy.
Thank you for sharing and congratulations! Bunny hugs!!!
Awww this, this... was sooo beautiful. Really. I'm so happy I read this chapter. There are some phrases that will stay with me, like when Draco thinks of those little things that made him fall in love with Ginny. He feels so incredibly defenseless in this chapter! Thank goodness we have our bold Ginny who in the end could put him out of his misery (and hers, at least for now). I'm so anxious to read more. I really missed this story!!!
I hope everything goes well with your pregnancy! Bunny hugs!
p.s.: I'm always the one giving hugs, but right now, I wish I had a Draco to hug me T_T
Author's Response: Thank you so much for your review! And apparently I have a Draco. I was thinking about it, and though he is not blond, he is a snarky asshole, lol. Air hugs!
Oh I'm so sorry for Neville, too, but I just love how vicious and twisted and creative this murderer is. Poor Ginny, I hope she can cope with this... somehow. Wonderfully crafted scene. Please update soon! Hugs!
Armed with her wand, dreams of becoming an Auror and a pair of Bill's old black leather motorcycle boots, Ginny Weasley felt prepared for anything her 5th year at Hogwarts could send her way: Quidditch Quaffles, Potions exams, and her brand-new relationship with Harry Potter. What she wasn't expecting was interference from a handful of Slytherins; not just the romantic interest of Draco Malfoy, but a mysterious pair of redheaded twins from France, as well. Add in Cho Chang, dragon pox, Weasleys' Wheezes, a new DADA teacher and Lucius Malfoy's evil plotting, and you've got an adventure that will rival Ginny's first rollercoaster year at Hogwarts. Starts off H/G but will absolutely be D/G. Includes R/Hr and Cho/Charlie as well.Category: Works in Progress
what a nice start.
your Ginny is so well portrayed and she feels much more realistic than the books regarding her feelings, her thoughts... I really really like her.
And the introduction of the French twins is brilliant.
your writing is delightful!!! please do continue to publish new chapters!!
hugs!
When Ginny tries to befriend Draco in an attempt to help her Father get promoted, she soon learns the life of the Malfoys has changed a great deal since the fall of Voldemort. When her curiosity leads her to find some unanswered questions, she ends up uncovering more than she ever expected.Category: Long and Completed
Aaah love love love iiiit. There are so many things I totally fangirl about in this story. Good job!
Can't wait to read more!!!
Hugs!!!
Author's Response: OMG!!!! Thank you soooo much for your review!!! It means so much to me that readers take the time to leave feedback!!! Thank you again =D
Yayyyy another chapteeeer!!!
(a few minutes later)
Noooo poor Blaise :'(
I need to know who did it!!! too much mistery for my poor heart.
please go on!!!!
Hugs :D
Author's Response: LOL!!! I actually am up to chapter 16 but the chapters just take some time to get submitted to the site, soon though.....very soon. Thank you so much for your review!!! I love them!!! It means so much =D
I didn't want to admit it, but I'm liking this kind of f--k buddy thing between these two. They are oh so cute.
And what the heck, Harry? Seriously?
this is getting so interesting...
Hugs!
Author's Response: LOL!!!! I KNOW!!!!! Thank you so much for your wonderful reviews!!! I will keep uploading away!!
Oooh I don't like that Chamberlain...
Wonderful chapter. Looking forward for the next!!!!
Hugs!
Author's Response: Thank you soo much!!!!!
This is so good, so good... I need to know what's in those files!!!
Draco is so cute. I really loved how you made them develop their relationship. Your Ginny is so well portrayed, how she conceals all her feelings behind her playful personality.
I really loved that scene with Narcissa behind the wall at the music room, listening to her son play. It was so emotional.
Ugh, Harry is such an aaaaaarse!!! I'm saying it again, there's something fishy about that Chamberlain (Draco insulting him is priceless; more of that, please!)
Thank you for this amazing story. I'll be waiting for the next chapter!!!
Hugs!
Author's Response: I really appreciate your feedback! I love hearing what my readers like! Please keep reviewing!
For the life of her, Ginny Weasley did not know how this had happened. She could have blamed the two glasses of expensive champagne, or considered the possibility of being put under the Imperius Curse, but she knew deep down that that was not the case. Somehow, she had knowingly and wilfully ended up here. Shit.Category: Works in Progress
Yayyyyy welcome back, I missed you!!! Thank you so much for this new chapter. These two fight constantly and make me suffer, but their reconciliations are everything. Like all of a sudden one of them just does/says something really unexpectedly sweet and I just--I just can't. So cute. I hope they can continue to grow and mature together into this less explosive behaviour and more affectionate ways to solve their discrepancies... (Well, this is a fic after all and it needs some good chaos from time to time, haha). I'm so intrigued about what's going to happen with Dolohov ad the death eaters, and how Draco will be envolved with all that. I'm also wishing for my girl Ginny to recover completely, poor thing. She's been trough a lot, no wonder her head is a mess. In the meantime, as always, keep on writing because I'm so eager to read more from you. This is definitely one of my favorite fics ever. Take care and bunny hugs for you! Yayyyyy I'm so happy!!!
Agh, I don't know if I'll be able to resist another quarrel between Draco and Ginny; you're making me suffer, but well... I'm a bit of a masochist myself, and I'm so in love with this story. Your writing is wonderful, the plot is superb. Ginny is amazing, Draco is to die for... I can't wait to read the next chapter. Please update soon!!! Hugs!!
Author's Response: Ahahahaha thank you so much! I am glad you're enjoying the characters and I hope you continue to do so as the story progresses. As for D/G quarrels, well given how hardheaded both of them are, do you really think it will be smooth sailing? ;D
multi-chapter multi-chapter multi-chapter!!!
(pleeeeeease?)
It was a great start; I really hope you continue the story.
Hugs!!!
Author's Response: Haha I heard you. Multi-chapter it is. Thank you for the review and I hope you'll continue to read it. The next chapter is up btw!
Oh I'm so sad for him... But he is strong; you've made him strong and unbelievably resilient so I'm sure he'll surprise us all. I think I already told you, but I'm so in love with his characterization. I feel his pain, his inner struggle. It's a whole experience.
Please update soon! Bunny hugs!
Author's Response: Draco is quite the character. He's been through so much. And its his sheer stubbornness to live and to live the way he wants that keeps him going. But he's come to rely on Ginny so much. I'm not sure how he'll do without her. I suppose we'll find out soon...
Thank you for reading!
I'm so in love with this story and your writing. Draco'spersonality is amazingly constructed and Ginny is just the kind of character I really wished she had been in the books. I think I'll have some popcorn prepared for the next chapter
Author's Response: Thank you so much! I'm so glad you're enjoying this story and the characterizations. Please do prepare some popcorn and head over to the next chapter (which is up now, by the way) and I hope to hear from you again! Cheers!
yasss! draco, oh my poor draco, i sense some dark times ahead. lovely cliffhanger you brought here! please do continue with this great story. hugs!
Author's Response: Thank you! :)

Ginny Weasley was a broken woman when she stumbled into Draco Malfoy's life, and he's been working hard to prove to her that there is more to her than her Darkness.Category: Completed Fiction
Oooh this was soo cute. I thought it was heading to some really gloomy place (which, btw, is so totally my cup of tea);instead it turned out to be so cute, omg Draco is gorgeous. Mmm I want one like that XDDD. Seriously speaking though, I'm sure I had read your Darkness Dancing in the past, but was really anxious to read the new stuff. Are you continuing, maybe with another dance? Please, do. Hugs!!!!!
Author's Response: Oh, I'm so glad you liked it! It kind of took an unexpected turn for me too, but I'm along for the ride! It's entirely possible it will continue from here, as I'm terribly intrigued to see Draco meeting the whole Weasley family. Molly will be the most fun XD
The Second Wizarding War did not have to happen. The Dark Lord has long been defeated since Harry Potter was saved by his mother's love from Voldemort's killing curse. The orphaned Boy-Who-Lived attends Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry where he met his bestfriends Hermione and Ron, the Weasleys, and of course his nemesis, Draco Malfoy. To finally end generations-old feud between the Malfoys and Weasleys, Draco and Ginny's grandfathers had a magical agreement that entails Draco and Ginny to marry each other or else lead Lucius and Arthur to their deaths. Will hate persist or perhaps love will bloom?Category: Works in Progress
What a beautiful chapter! I thought you had been there; you did a great job with your research. I particularly love the details about the scenery and the French aesthetic and art (that part about Cezanne was delightful!) Yayyyy please update soon! Hugs!
Yayyyy!!! I need to re-read this story. I'll give you a decent review after that. Thank you for updating!! Hugs!!!
Awww I love that they're getting along. I was having mixed feelings with this fic, not because of the story itself, but because everything seemed so unfair for them. They're both heartbroken yet they manage to set aside their differences and try starting all over. And they feel so authentically young in their interactions, it's refreshing. I'm not into kdramas that much (I am, however, an avid consumer of their film industry since many many years ago), so I'll probably try and watch Princess Hours. But I'm afraid it'll spoil me anything from here. It's getting really interesting.
I don't know much abour France, but I pressume they'll go to a small seaside town where they make delicious cuisine (and sweets).
I hope everything is alright with your computer. I know how exhausting it is when you lose all your work and have to restart all over again with the bits inside your head and those dialogues that were sooo good but you don't quite remember anymore; It's happened to me a couple of times. Please don't give up! Please do continue!!!
Thank you for sharing! Bunny hugs!
Author's Response: Interesting to know that you've watched Korean films. I've known them for their chick flicks and horror movies. But I'm more of a kdrama fan before the Hallyu wave. You can try Princess Hours. It's a classic. You might recognize some scenes I adapted or would be adapting but it won't be a spoiler. I began this fanfiction with an end in mind.
I appreciate you understanding the feelings I wished to convey with this story. Innocence. Young love. Hope. Thank you for the encouragement and support!

Malfoy was curious. Curious and angry. “So, what do you want from me, Weasley?”
It was the admission of his defeat. Ginny felt the taste of victory - and it was bitter.
“I want influence. I want protection. I want safety.” She stopped, giving him time to assimilate her words, before she played her final card. "I want your name. " When saying the last sentence, however, she could not help the blush that spread across her face.
Malfoy's countenance changed several times in a very short time. Annoyance turned into wariness, then into confusion, and finally, when he really understood what Ginny had implied, his face showed only a profound horror.
I want your name.
I want a marriage.
Hi! Oh my, oh my, this is sooo good. I really like your writing, but also the story is taking an interesting flight. Please, please update soon! I'm so anxious to know how the D/G story will start developing. P. S.: Arthur is sooo adorable.
Author's Response: Ouuun, thank you so much for your words! You have no idea how much they motivated me to keep writing!
As soon as I post my other story, I'm going to continue this one in full swing! I believe I'll have a consolidated chapter in the next few days, bear with me!
D/G will take a little longer to consolidate (we'll have to go through H/G hell first, but it will be worth it, I promise). Anyway, we can see little glimpses of how Draco and Ginny are opening up to each other. It's cute.
WE ALL LOVE ARTHUR WEASLEY, DON'T WE, he's such a good dad! It's amazing to write about him!
Thank you again, my dear. It's a pleasure seeing you around here.
