Summary
The worst part of being on assignment with Malfoy isn't guarding Neville, living in a tent for two weeks, or traipsing through dense Scottish forest. It's that Malfoy’s an incorrigible flirt intent on driving her barmy.
So Hermione does what any good partner would do.
She flirts back.

He grabs the sleek leather straps of her wand holster. A faint brush of knuckles along the swell of her breasts makes her breath hitch. Did he just—?
He clears his throat. “Sorry.”
Is it her imagination, or is his voice more gravelly than usual?
He pulls on her straps and tugs with all his strength. “There,” he rasps. “Nice and tight.”

Summary
Succumbing (A Tom Riddle x Nagini Origin Story) Chapter 11 to give you all a taste of the Tom Riddle x Nagini dynamic before committing to the behemoth that is Succumbing, an ongoing WIP that will be completed in the near future.
1948 Knights of Walpurgis Era, enjoy the familiar faces/surnames of the ancestors of our faves ;)
Nagini agreed to join Tom Riddle back in Wizarding London, with the stipulation that he help her find a cure for her Blood Curse. Her time was running out. Riddle was young and power hungry, seeming to have friends in the high places that could hopefully help her.
His storm-cloud eyes and silver tongue had absolutely no impact on her decision. Though their chemistry seemed undeniable, Nagini's motivations were pure. But were Tom's?
Tom's closest friends, the Malfoys, offered to host them during her open-ended stay, so Nagini needed to learn to adapt in the world of the Sacred Twenty-Eight.
Seline Malfoy threw Nagini a welcome party worthy of a Malfoy Manor celebration, but Tom seemed to have his own plans for her, and she was along for the ride.
