Title: A Potion Named Desire
Disclaimer: J. K. Rowling and associates own these characters. I am writing this story for fun and not profit.
Pairing: Harry/Draco preslash, Ron/Hermione, past Harry/other women.
Summary: When Ron dies, Hermione falls into a deep depression. Desperate to relieve her symptoms, Harry reluctantly approaches “independent apothecary” (read: black market brewer) Draco Malfoy for help. Draco, agreeing to help for his own reasons, finds himself falling into a surprisingly intellectual companionship with both Hermione and Harry. But as they work together, two questions become paramount for Draco: How powerful will the Desire potion be when they’ve finished it? And what exactly is the mysterious potion that Harry takes every two weeks?
Warnings: Post-DH, ignores epilogue. Profanity, character death (obviously), clinical depression, lots and lots of Potions shop talk.
Rating: PG/K+ (mostly for language).
Author’s Notes: Welcome to the first story in a series of three. The series title will be ‘An Intellectual Love Affair.’ This first part is preslash, moving strongly in the direction of slash, and will be about twelve chapters long. The story is focused mainly on a companionship of the mind being the first thing that attaches Draco and Harry, rather than shared danger or physical attraction. As such, it will be probably be more cerebral and not as action-oriented as my other stories, though the second story does get into Ministry politics.

Enjoy!
