Should

The air was laden with the lingering smells of sex, guilt, and perfume. The heavy, olive drapes had been drawn, and thick rain clouds loomed outside the large windows, discolouring the bedroom with gloomy grey. Malfoy was artfully sprawled on the ludicrously expensive, black sheets, naked as the day he was born and completely ( Read more... )

(The word count made me pause)

I enjoyed this a lot. The relationship between Draco and Scorpius stroke me as particularly lovely, and I just love a snarky, presumptuous Draco.
Sometimes I feel bad for minding infidelity so little (well when it comes to that pairing, that is)- but stories like this make it just too attractive! Very nice work.

Yes, it is very short, and if I hadn't written it, I would've probably whizzed right past it. But I'm glad you gave it a shot. Thanks for the lovely review. And yes, I'm a sucker for Draco being a great dad! I'd like to think he wouldn't be Lucius II.

Thanks! Glad you liked it. And yeah, Scorpius was so fun to write.

Wonderful story. Though I'm not keen on infidelity fics, but I do love your harry. He is flawed but the ending is just perfect. And Draco is such a wonderful dad :)

IMO, the epilogue makes good for flawed!Harry. And I can just see Draco as the best dad ever. So happy you gave it a chance despite not liking infidelity. Thanks for reading. <3

Not a fan of infidelity myself, but I love the way you wrote this! Both are very much in character, which makes the story all the more realistic in its intensity. There is something vaguely appealing about a devil-may-care!Draco and a guilt-ridden!Harry. He should just admit and divorce Ginny and shack up with who his heart belongs to...

I'm glad you found them IC; I try not to ruin them too much. And yes, Harry really should divorce Ginny and stop this cuckolding... Thanks for reading; I know infidelity is a major squick for some people, so I'm happy you were still able to enjoy it.
