Title: Down In the Shadows To Pray
Disclaimer: J. K. Rowling and associates own these characters. I am writing this story for fun and not profit.
Pairings: Harry/Draco, Narcissa/Lucius
Warnings: Het, slash, sex (both het and slash), voyeurism, some slight bondage, DH spoilers but EWE, odd pagan religion. Non-linear; tense switches; Narcissa POV.
Word Count: ~8000
Rating: NC-17.
Summary: Narcissa has long since accepted that she will have no daughter to follow her into the Shadows, but she had thought she would have a daughter-in-law. Now, her son’s choice imperils that, and forces her towards a choice of her own between her duty as a mother and her duty to her faith.

Oh, yes, and it’s weird and kind of surreal and not meant to imply anything about real-world paganism or neopaganism at all; this is a brand of religion I made up.
