1 – 20 of 57 Works in Powerful Harry Potter
Summary
For three years, Harry Evans believed he had found the man he would spend the rest of his life with. Then Theodore Nott announced his engagement to Pansy Parkinson and told Harry that while he was good enough to love in secret, he was never suitable enough to marry.
Draco Malfoy had spent years loving Harry from a distance, and he wasn't about to let Theodore Nott's stupidity destroy the opportunity he'd been waiting for. He didn't care that Harry Evans had no prestigious family name, no fortune, and no political connections. He wanted Harry, and he was perfectly willing to tell the entire wizarding world.
There was just one small detail nobody knew.
Harry Evans was actually Harry James Potter, Lord Potter and heir to House Black. And when the truth finally came out, Theodore Nott would discover exactly what he'd thrown away. But Harry had already moved on, and Draco Malfoy intended to spend the rest of his life making certain Harry never regretted choosing him.

Summary
When Harry receives the news that he needs to get resorted after his name comes out of the Goblet of Fire, he thinks his world might end. His life, definitely, because of course he gets resorted into Slytherin. It's what the Sorting Hat had always wanted to do.
But maybe, just maybe, the Sorting Hat had been right from the very beginning. Maybe, Harry's life wasn't over, but it was just getting started. With new friendships made, secrets unveiled and knowledge gained, Harry has to decide if he is brave enough to leave everything behind; and maybe he will gain so much more.

Harry Potter and the Burden of the Snake by RedCherryCake
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
06 Sep 2026
Summary
“It is our choices, Harry, that show what we truly are, far more than our abilities,” - Albus Dumbledore
What if Harry made the choice not to ask the sorting hat to put him in Gryffindor?
The lines have been redrawn. His best friend Ron is in Hufflepuff, Hermione has joined Ravenclaw, and Harry is forced into co-inhabitance with Draco Malfoy and Theodore Nott.
But trauma doesn't disappear just because the child now holds a wand. Haunted by the Dursleys, Harry turns to ancient magic to survive Hogwarts' depths, only to discover the cost of such power.
Lightly based on SuperCarlinBrother’s “What if Harry was in Slytherin” video.

“This is the only way I could think of making you do what needs to be done. Now I'm going to send both of you back in time—to redo how fate was supposed to play out.”
“Oh, that's just cheating!” Harry laughs in disbelief. “You know I'd follow him anywhere he goes.”Harry and Draco are sent back in time by force to live how they were supposed to before it was altered.
Fate sure is funny, eh?Shelves: Harry Potter

Darkness Within
On the fateful night when Ron and Hermione were abducted, the wheels of destiny began to turn. For Harry, the kidnapping of his friends shattered the illusion that the light side could guarantee the safety of his loved ones. An ultimatum was presented, and a decision was made. Now, Harry stands at a crossroads: should he embrace the teachings of darkness or risk losing everything he holds dear? Can he protect those he loves without losing himself in the process?

Defying Destiny
Sequel to Darkness Within
Entering his fourth year of instructing at Hogwarts, Harry finds himself satisfied and genuinely happy. However, everything takes a sharp turn when Minister Slytherin's ambitions to extend beyond the UK include reinstating the Triwizard Tournament at Hogwarts, truly testing the fragile stability he and his heir have achieved. To make matters worse, a supposedly defeated Dark Lord escapes Nurmengard, and whispers of dark magic capable of controlling the underworld begin to surface. The lines between friend and foe have never been more blurred, and magic has never seemed so divisive. Harry barely survived facing one Dark Lord, can he survive facing two?
If you have not read my first book, Darkness Within, this won’t make much sense…. 😊

Soulbound
Book Three of the Discovering Darkness Series
The underworld is no myth. Hades is no longer a distant legend. And Harry Potter is no longer just the boy who lived.
After Grindelwald vanishes, desperate to reclaim the power Harry destroyed, Harry becomes the unwilling key to an older magic. One forged in oaths, blood, and the ashes of the dead. As ancient gods stir and forgotten bargains awaken, Harry must choose: surrender to a legacy that may cost him his soul, or stand against a god and risk losing everything.
Marked by prophecy. Bound by death. Claimed by one who would see the world burn before giving him up. Harry will need more than strength and cunning to survive this.
The dead do not choose. The chosen do not escape.
If you haven’t read my first two books, you will be REALLY confused 😊

“A Ward?!” Draco yelled, his voice cracking hysterically. “Mother, you can’t be serious! You want to adopt him? People will think we’re brothers! You can’t make him my brother, I’ve had my tongue down his throat for more than a year!”
“Draco Lucius Malfoy,” Lucius hissed, closing his eyes as if praying for strength.

Summary
Harry has been horribly abused by his relatives his entire life, until one day something awakens in him, and he takes revenge.
Incredibly dark and graphically violent. Various pairings across the story, but the main one is Harry/Draco.
This is NOT a complete work! More chapters are being added.

Summary
Lucius Malfoy has spent years desperately searching for a way to remove his Mark. Now, he’s out of time. Salvation - of a kind - comes from the resurgence of an ancient House, under a very familiar name, that could potentially overwrite the Dark Lord’s claim with its own. Of course, swearing his House into vassalage to a fourteen-year-old boy with diametrically opposed values and plenty of reason to dislike his family is far from ideal, but…well, Lucius has always been a practical man. Harry Potter is better than an insane, vengeful Dark Lord, and if that ancient lineage comes back into play? Well, perhaps his family will simply be the first among many; and this, an opportunity to secure a position of high favour...
Harry Potter does not like Lucius Malfoy, and trusts him even less. The last thing he wants is to bind their families together. But Malfoy is a convincing man and his offers and arguments end up sounding so very sensible. He doesn't want Malfoy’s resources and wealth to end up in Voldemort’s hands either, and if Malfoy is truly offering to help him with the things that are important to Harry in return, well…when has anyone else ever really done that before?

Summary
After dying on the job a month before his 25th birthday, Harry Potter is offered three choices: return, move on, or go Back; back to a time before the Second War, a time where he can change things for the better, where he can protect Magic from the scourge of Voldemort's final grab for power, a time where he can give a younger version of himself love he'd never known.
Harry grabs at the opportunity, more than ready to right the wrongs of the past, but he doesn't think to ask how it'll work or where he'll be dropped. He doesn't think to ask Death where he'd come from or how he'd fit into this new world.
Now, living as Harrison Peverell alongside Theo and Teddy who travelled Back with him, Harrison has to figure out how to move forward in a world where his mere presence has already begun to shift the script, where simply rewriting history won't be quite as simple as it seemed.

The Prince of Slytherin Anthology by TheSinister_Man
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling, Harry Potter - Fandom
03 Feb 2026
Summary
Harry Potter was Sorted into Slytherin after a crappy childhood. His brother Jim is believed to be the Boy Who Lived. This will not be the story you expect; follow Harry through a changed world as he learns of a world that was hidden from him, battles prophecies kept from him, and finds a place in it all despite adversity.
Year Four (Harry Black and the Resurrection Game) is currently ongoing. No romantic pairings prior to Fourth Year. Basically good Dumbledore and Weasleys, with limited bashing (mainly of James). Eldritch magic, and occasional breaks from canon - always with a purpose.

Harry Potter and the Prince of Slytherin
Harry Potter was Sorted into Slytherin after a crappy childhood. His brother Jim is believed to be the BWL. Think you know this story? Think again. Year Three (Harry Potter and the Death Eater Menace) starts on 9/1/16. NO romantic pairings prior to Fourth Year. Basically good Dumbledore and Weasleys. Limited bashing (mainly of James).
Harry Potter and The Secret Enemy
Harry Potter returns to school after a first year filled with peril, brotherly battles and a changing world. Conflict follows from school to Privet Drive and back to school, where an altogether too mysterious man of fame and fortune is their new Defence teacher - and it only becomes worse when the Petrifications start.
Harry Potter and the Death Eater Menace
After surviving the Chamber of Secrets and discovering the truth about Gilderoy Lockhart, Harry Potter returns for his Third Year and his continued pursuit of the Prince's Throne. But Hogwarts and Wizarding Britain are thrown into chaos by the escape of not just Sirius Black, but most of Voldemort's Inner Circle from Azkaban Prison. Meanwhile, Harry's efforts to reconcile with his twin brother and his parents are threatened by the machinations of Peter Pettigrew while other enemies lurk in the shadows. How will Harry Potter over come the Death Eater Menace?
NOTE: This work was re-uploaded in July of 2021 after deletion due to an unintentional breach of TOS (since corrected). I apologize for any formatting errors.
Harry Black and the Resurrection Game (Act I: The Games of Summer)
It is the summer of 1994, and the newly renamed Harry Black seems to have the world at his feet. By his Third Year's ending, he has become wealthy, influential, and popular. And perhaps best of all, he has revenged himself on the parents who abandoned him as a baby. But beneath the surface, troubles lurk. Powerful supernatural forces continue to drive a wedge between Harry and his twin brother Jim (the Boy-Who-Lived) while prophecies swirl around both boys that threaten everything Harry and his friends have built. And against the backdrop of the Quidditch World Cup, Lord Voldemort and his Inner Circle set their most diabolical plans into motion.
Harry Black and the Resurrection Game (Act II: The Fall of Champions)
Still reeling from the violence of the Quidditch World Cup, Harry Black and his friends return to Hogwarts in time for the Triwizard Tournament, unaware that the machinations of Lord Voldemort and his followers will turn a simple academic tournament into a death trap. Meanwhile, Harry must deal with the responsibilities of becoming the new Prince of Slytherin, while the Potters face the explosive fallout from Rita Skeeter's expose.

I'm on the run (with you, my sweet love) by Lady_on_paper
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling
23 Dec 2025
Summary
Harry Potter was tired. After surviving the graveyard and going back to the Dursleys, it seems all his friends and godfather can say to him is "We'll talk when we meet, I can't say anything". He genuinely doesn't know if he can last another month like this. And if he doesn't get news, he'll find some for himself. So he decided to leave, just for a month. The only thing he wants is to breathe. Maybe for the last time.
Of course, nothing was ever easy for Harry - it really shouldn’t surprise him that he turns out to be a wanted criminal, acquires unholy ancient magic and becomes the third side of the war himself, not to mention the pretty blonde whom he picks up while he's on the run.

Summary
‘“You can’t go alone Harry,” Hermione said, trying to lift herself to her feet but giving up with a squeak, “You need help!”
“No,” Harry said firmly, “This is my decision to run off to try and save Sirius, no one else’s - and you need help Hermione! Look at your ankle!”
“How are you even getting there?” Ron demanded, “Cause’ if you want to floo, it looks like we both need to go back up to the castle,” he cried triumphantly.
The answer to his question came in the form of a sudden insistent tugging at the sleeve of Harry’s robe. He flinched back, and looked down to find the skeletal head of doe-eyed Thestral following the path of his hand in an attempt to lick off the blood that coated his arm. Harry froze for a minute, then grinned. He knew exactly how he was getting to London.’—
When Harry made the choice to leave his friends behind, and rescue Sirius from the Department of Mysteries on his own, he had never imagined what the consequences might be.

Summary
At 11:59 pm on the night of July 30th in 1994, the wizarding and Muggle worlds were fast asleep, no one knowing what was about to come. In a manor in Wiltshire, a young boy and his parents all slept soundly and peacefully, unaware that his life would be forever changed by morning. In a cave in the moors, a dog slept, curled up tightly against the wet cold of the night. At a castle in Scotland, an old man rested easily, not knowing that all his plans were about to be torn to pieces. Within a tall, teetering, beat-up looking house in Devon seven people were in their beds, but only five of them slept soundly. The final two were wide awake, staring at each other in the darkness, the only ones to feel that something was coming. And at a perfectly normal house in a perfectly normal neighborhood in Surrey slept a perfectly normal husband and wife and their perfectly normal son. But upstairs, in the smallest bedroom, slept a very unordinary boy who was about to be responsible for a very, very extraordinary destiny.
