[Harry Potter] Consort of the Goddess of Dawn

Blaise Zabini & Afrovora Vasiliev (original female lead)

Reader advisory:

1. Original female lead, Russian pure-blood, living with her single father. Her father and Blaise's mother take a liking to each other, and later get engaged and married. This story could also be called, "Want a bit of British matchmaking?"

2. The female lead is definitely a Slytherin, but she doesn't demonize Gryffindor. That doesn't mean she likes Gryffindor, either. She regards Slytherin as a source of pride.

3. The female lead is a little slow on the uptake. She's somewhat spacey in her first and second years, but she's no Mary Sue! She's clever and perceptive, with a stubborn streak deep down.

4. As tensions rise later on and the conflict between Gryffindor and Slytherin deepens, the leads choose to keep their heads down and stay out of it. After all, this story doesn't have a Gryffindor storyline.

5. Pansy Parkinson, Theodore Nott, Daphne Greengrass, and others are out of character. I'll do my best to keep Draco in character.

6. There isn't much romance in the first and second years. They're still children, after all, and need to focus on their studies (seriously).

7. The female lead's name means goddess of the morning. I found it on Baidu.

Theme: How about a pure-blood love story?
