A World Not So Black Nor White by Amanuensis (NC-17)

Fandom: HARRY POTTER
Pairing: Harry Potter/Lucius Malfoy
Author on lj: [livejournal.com profile] amanuensis1
Author website: despoiling harry

Why this must be read: Harry has to run away from home and can't go back. He's so desperate he becomes a whore in Knockturn Alley - until he gets picked up by none other than Lucius Malfoy.

Harry finds out about trust, creme brulee, Lucius not being as committed to Voldemort as he thought he was, and a lot of other things... amongst them Sexgod!Lucius's Magic Jar of Lube as Girlfriend and I call it :D ( The jar of lubricant in the bedside table drawer is magicked to never run out, to sterilize itself each time, and to stay warmed as well.)

Despite the serious theme, this story has delightfully funny dialogue, the characters are spot on, and the sex is hotter than a hot thing. This story really got me into this pairing, and I haven't regretted it since. It's a delightful read... I especially adore Great Aunt Jeanne-Maire.

A World Not So Black Nor White

Word of Potter's presence at the Malfoy manor will soon reach He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.
Or, as Lucius has come to think of him privately, Fucking Captain Ahab.
It all made so much sense, years ago. Enslave the worthless Muggles. Teach the Mudblood upstarts their place. A commitment they could all drool over.
And now, ever since his return, all it's been is Get that stinking white whale that is the Potter boy.
It's just so fucking tedious.

I have to totally second this rec. It's beautiful. I love fics that can make me believe in Lucius/Harry while still keeping Lucius Lucius.

This is an AMAZINGLY good fic. I love nearly everything Amanuensis has done, and this is one of my top favorites. It makes sense, the sex is hot, and they are both very much themselves, Harry as much as Lucius. She has a very delicate touch in writing Harry so that we believe in him as a teenager, who's been somewhat forcibly matured in some areas, but still very innocent in others. And Lucius is absolutely PERFECT.
