Are there any brokeback mountain-style drarry fics where Harry is married to Ginny?

I’m looking for stories where Harry (or both Harry and Draco) are married to women but they still meet in secret. Ideally I’d like Draco to be in love with Harry while Harry maybe sees it at just sex or doesn’t want to admit he’s gay. I’m fine with angst, homophobia, and toxic relationships. Any recs would be appreciated!

It is what it is I guess? 😂🤷‍♀️

I wasn’t sure what the last sequence was, and he wouldn’t tell me (his conversational speech is limited). Today I realised it’s the numbers of the pages for each chapter in a book he likes. He somehow memorised all of them.

Okay I’m super ready for the downvotes here, but I feel like everything that made THT impactful is gone. It’s the same thing that happened with GOT when they went off script: everyone had plot armour or was weirdly redeemable out of nowhere.

Aunt Lydia’s backstory in THT made me actually upset when I watched it. The one they gave us this time just didn’t hit that hard imo, not to mention that it wasn’t consistent with what we know about her. Seeing her backstory in THT I was able to understand why she was so full of hatred and unresolved pain/bitterness. In the Testaments she is completely rewritten as fragile and emotionally intelligent in a way she just wasn’t until now.

Which begs the question, if they were willing to start over with a new adaptation that’s inconsistent to THT series, why couldn’t they use Daisy’s real identity too? If they were willing to age up the girls several years (some look in their mid 20s) why did they change the dentist scene? The entire world of Gilead feels a bit… softened down, if that makes sense? Like no one’s really in immediate danger?
