Thank you so much Mystery Author. I loved this so much. It was so wonderfully wrong. I've always loved the trope of cheap, messed up prostitution, and I loved rolling around in it here, but you take it past the level of cliches and make us believe that these two are real. Severus' casual cruelty and Draco's inability to hide anything. And damn, that legilimency scene.... And then you give us wonderful language like "Severus strode out of his own shadows."
