drarry au where Draco is royalty and Harry is a servant has been done, but please consider royal Harry and servant Draco
I remember a fic about Royal Harry and servant Draco. It has a good opening, but it flops shortly after, so I wouldn't recommend it. But I love the idea so much.
It's kinda dark but these what I remember,
What I found interesting is the world-building: there is a royal family or Royal clan based in four Hogwarts houses, and the Slytherin kingdom is known as the evil one, trying to overthrow the other castles and take control. So the war began, and in the end, the Slytherin kingdom collapsed, and the people who associated with that kingdom became victims of human trafficking and became a long selection of enslaved people/servants.
Harry want to find a servant from there and the kingdom is grim and everyone eyes sunken and pale and obviously barely take care of as the place is run by the authority so they won’t do any sketchy things.
The people there select few people that would be a good servant for Harry but suddenly there’s a loud yelling on the end of the building
Harry's eyes immediately went to Draco, and unlike the others, Draco is feisty and tries to fight the guard who tries to drag him or maybe punish him for disobedience. Harry walked and stopped in front of him, and was immediately caught by Draco's silver eyes.
I’m not sure why Harry picked Draco in the end. It’s probably that one fic where they make Draco the equivalent of a Manhwa girl mc who can only rely on their looks to conquer, presumably why I dropped it instantly then.
But I would love it if the fic turned into one where Draco tries to become a proper servant, but has the tendency to attempt to flee, but Harry greets him with kindness and respect, and ever provides him with many things to have a good life.
Draco grew calmer, though he remained hyper-aware of his surroundings and a little lonely, since he was from the Slytherin kingdom and people frowned and gave him an ill look. The only person who treats him decently is Harry.
And so their relationship grew, and they shared any stories. And Draco became the only person who knew how Harry disliked his position as royalty because he wanted to be free from the many rules of royalty, which he wished he could avoid. I mean, he used to defy the rules, but he got so much trouble in the past, and royalty have strict ordinances.
And so the story shall be continued. It's a rough idea I have, and exploring the political stuff there would be amazing, especially human protection, either should Harry or should he not, save those people who are stuck under the human trafficking, the result as punishment from the war they did not start, rather by the man who controls them.
Or we keep it simple, and Draco is a top-tier butler for Harry, who is a rebel and never follows the Royal rules. And there will be much training and rage baiting, and silly stuff like playing catch as Draco tries to run and find Harry, and Harry is playing with him because he loves breaking the rules.
