❝ A Lestrange and a Potter? ❞
— Albus Dumbledore, Harry Potter
and The Prisoner of Azkaban.

𝑬𝑺𝑴𝑬𝑹𝑨𝑳𝑫𝑨 𝑳𝑬𝑺𝑻𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑮𝑬 was never meant to have a quiet life. The daughter of Rabastan Lestrange, one of Voldemort's most trusted followers, she carried the weight of her family's dark legacy from the moment she was born. When the Dark Lord fell, she was taken in by the Malfoys, her closest kin, in an attempt to salvage her future. "Give the Malfoys a Lestrange," Albus Dumbledore had said. "They'll love her all the same."

But growing up in the shadow of the Malfoy name only deepened Esme's inner turmoil. Was she destined to follow the same dark path, or could she become something more? Quiet, introspective, and wise beyond her years, Esme wrestled with who she was and who the world expected her to be.

To her peers, she was strange—an enigma shrouded in mystery and silence. To Harry Potter, however, she was fascinating. From the moment he met her, Harry was drawn to Esme's quiet strength and the way she seemed to see the world differently from anyone else. She was everything he wasn't: reserved where he was bold, reluctant to stand out where he was forced into the spotlight.

Despite their differences—and the weight of their families' opposing legacies—Harry and Esme form an unshakable bond. But in a world still reeling from war, where names like Lestrange are more curse than identity, can love truly transcend the scars of the past?

❝ He's a liar. ❞
