I really enjoy this story, especially the dual POV. In the comments I read (the ones for the previous chapters), it seems that most readers sympathize with Draco, but I can really understand Harry. Even if his opinion is biased (he IS obsessed with hunting vampires), he just feels he has to defend his freedom and no one will help him. And the Long-Desired bond doesn't sound so nice...But it's true he's forgotten all his other principles (or the ones canon-Harry has) if he doesn't mind using dark rituals. I liked your idea about a class of magic even more taboo than the Unforgivables. It makes sense that something that can change human nature would fall in that category. And it fits with canon perfectly : the Ministry would not hesitate to destroy books and Obliviate people if they felt justified in doing so. I'm looking forward to the next chapter.
This, I think, is where Harry really does go too far. It's understandable for him to want his freedom and try to reject Draco, as well as finding alternatives, but hurting an animal is beyond the pale and meant to seem so.
The Ministry bans and controls and keeps secret a lot of things. It made sense to me that there is worse magic than magic that kills, tortures, or controls the mind out there.
