FIC: Kali's curse

Author/Artist:[livejournal.com profile] lyonessheart
Prompt Number:#16-Harry is an Auror who has been tracking down the purchase and use of illegal ritual items. During the latest raid, Harry discovers Draco tied down to a ritual altar, an unwilling participant in his father's attempts to secure a new heir. (His father is unable to have more children himself; perhaps damage from serving Voldemort.) Somehow during the subsequent fight and rescue of Draco, Harry disrupts the ritual in such a way that Draco ends up pregnant with Harry's child. Now Harry has to find a way to track down Lucius, who got away, and remain a part of Draco's life so that he can have a chance at being a proper father...maybe even finally having a proper family.
Title:Kali's Curse
Pairing(s): Harry/Draco,
Summary:Kali's curse is a ledgend, but as Harry has learned legends always have kernel of truth to them. Now he is in over his head and tries to find if this situation truly is a curse, or if it won't be his dream come true.

I liked the flow of the story where we start with Harry's pining and then the increasing warning signs that something is very wrong and Draco is in danger. I loved how you describe the smell of the magic. It made it visceral. Lucius' escape left a feeling of suspense that hung over their burgeoning romance until the end.
