Exactly what I would expect from this Harry. Draco needed to be controlled and Harry did it. I still don't trust Cali. Soo need chapter 27!!!

Oh shit! Harry is a superbad ass! Stopping AK's with his bare hands and then throwing them away like it's a baseball? lol. I LOVE it. I was surprised at Arthur Weasley's appearance, especially in this way, but it does make sense. I hope Harry isn't planning something suicidal...god help him. It's kinda sweet Calixa offered herself in Draco's place...maybe there's good in her after all. I wonder how this is all gonna work out. Your writing is really amazing because you get right to the point with little detail or prose but it still packs a punch. It's hard to say so much and not write so much, that takes a bit of talent. Can't wait to see what's next : )

Ch. 23 Are these people idiots? What, they think with the collar gone, Draco is no longer Harry's property or that Harry won't protect him? I don't know what Calixa thinks she's doing. Then again, maybe there's purpose to her madness.
That ring she's wearing acts like a tracking device, yes? If she doesn't show for her classes, someone is going to come looking for her and where she is, Draco is. I wonder if the kidnappers realize that. I bet we're going to find out.

Ch. 24 That was the LAST thing I'd expected. Was that ordinary murderous family revenge we just read or the fallout from Voldemort's death at work? Both things could be responsible, I suppose. Even the mildest of people might be driven to revenge when someone they love is murdered in such a brutal fashion. But, when I think about it, I'm more inclined to believe the latter is at fault.
Like Draco said, why wait a year? Why wait until he's under Harry's protection? Draco was fairly helpless for a long time; Arthur Weasley could have killed him before he became Harry's slave, back when Draco was still a target for all the other students in Hogwarts. Waiting until he was under the protection of the powerful Savior of the Wizarding World makes no sense whatsoever--unless Arthur became so unbalanced under the magical toxicity of Voldemort's extermination that he chose this method and this time to kill Draco.
Seeing Harry remain unharmed by the Killing Curse was chilling. What has happened to him that he can absorb that kind of force without perishing or going insane?

Ch. 20 That was a weird and awkward conversation. For a moment there, I was worried that Draco was going to start tickling Harry.
I wonder what it was about touching Harry that set him off. Then again, that could be it. It's one thing to offer comfort to his property if that keeps Draco from whining or hurting himself. It's another for Draco to be playful as if Harry were a friend...like Ron.
Hmm, was that it? Did the comfortable cameraderie remind Harry of Ron? The fact that it's the man who tricked Ron into killing himself might be the trigger that enrages Harry. I hope he doesn't take that anger out on Draco.

Ch. 21 I can understand why Harry would have scars, given everything he's suffered. But the enigmatic comment about family makes no sense. Harry has no family who has survived Voldemort and his cronies...does he? And is he seriously trying to claim that the first and only person he's ever fucked is Draco? Somehow a virginal Harry doesn't fit with the creature you've created here. I can't believe he would hold himself from pressing the flesh even if just to relieve an itch.
Still, if you are trying to create the idea of a Harry so obsessed with Voldemort and so tightly reined in that he reacts only to cruelty and brutality, then a life lacking even in basic sexual contact would seem to fit. I hope that's something that would be corrected in the future--not necessarily with Draco.

Ch. 22 Trust a Slytherin like Calixa to feel no gratitude that she's not rotting in a cell someplace. Since she feels that Harry is a menace no matter what, maybe he should slam her in a dark crypt if only to keep her from plotting again with her little gang.
She is probably wrong about his sentimentality in sparing her, however. Harry may be adhering to that old adage: "Keep your friends close but your enemies closer." Now that Calixa's friends know he's on to them, they may be far more reluctant in future to get involved with her. Let's see how she deals with being the lone outsider. (And I wish Draco would just keep away from her! Didn't her botched assassination plot show what a twisted little loser she is? Sheesh!)
I almost forgot about Harry's family, the Dursleys. They're easy to ignore if an author doesn't write about them directly. Thanks for the reminder.

Should have taken the collar with him. I'd have made it into a bracelet or something. Draco has too many enemies. *sigh* At least Cali is wearing her bracelet. It should go off. Harry go prove you're not working for Voldemort! Go save them!!! Sooo need chapter 24!!!

Dammit Draco! Uggh..I hope he's gonna be alright..those Gryffindors are in for a world of hurt when Harry finds them. I'm glad Calixa cares enough to go rescue him. She's a rather complex character I think. You had me cracking up when Harry told Draco no rose petals....another great chapter. Update soon : )
