summary: After his father casts a mysterious curse on Harry Potter, Draco Malfoy is forced to try to make things right.
wordcount: 30k
rec notes: I know everyone and their mother has probably read this fic but as these things go we will all have to put up with me putting up the classics (that I've read) here, especially in the case if there are H/D people who haven't read this yet *hint hint*
this is basically the fic that made me realize I like werewolf fic (to be fair this was nearly a decade ago). I've reread it a few times since the first - most recently this week, for this rec - and it never fails to grip me and make me emotional and SAD about Harry and Draco. I am always sad about Harry and Draco! is this a surprise to anyone anymore??
Beauty & the Beast is basically my favorite 'classic' princess tale and this has the elements I love the most about it; the rescuing-from-wolves bit (especially even more ironic in this fic, since it's a werewolf fic); the taming and reluctance of the ~beast; the tender relationship that develops. also what I really liked about this fic is that Draco doesn't stop being Draco, he doesn't start saying sappy or kind shit even when he and Harry have reached a truce or mutual affection, and sometimes he still verbally fucks up and doesn't apologize for it. also the bit at the end where the *descends into incoherent blubbers*
anyway. if you haven't read this yet, đź…±lease read it. also I should note that while I have a somewhat obvious? preference for top Draco this has top Harry in it and it's still one of my favorite H/D fics of all time so
