Summary
It’s 2008 and Draco Malfoy is a secret assassin. It's legitimate - he gets paid for it, and some higher ups in the Ministry (probably?) know he’s out there… killing people. He’s quite good, but that tracks with his dubious accounting of rights and wrongs and his penchant for self-preservation. During his downtime he does a great job of acting like a pureblood in penance... mostly by drinking and shagging his way into oblivion.
This double life helps to numb Draco to the constant feelings of shame and guilt from his formative years in which he was an utter cunt- but everything is upended when his team (assassins can have coworkers, alright?) dies in action and he does not. Suspended and forced to go to therapy, Draco is adrift.
When Hermione Granger re-enters the fray, their hateful relationship that was once fraught with swotty bickering (erm, and the occasional slur) is suddenly tense in a very different way.
How will these two come together? How often will Theo say something terribly charming? Do we hate Ron or is Ron just, meh? Oh, and what’s going on with that one murderous witch who’s out to kill them all (forgot to mention that part…)?

Summary
After the second Wizarding War, Draco Malfoy is scorned and ostracized by the magic world. In the muggle world, he finds fame.
Hermione Granger holds a prestigious job at the Ministry of Magic. But in an attempt to connect with her muggle roots and her estranged parents, she takes up a position as entertainment reviewer at Cosmopolitan Magazine.
Inevitably, their paths realign. And it’s about time too; Hermione has been looking for a man who can strum her like a guitar. Some tattoos and piercings won’t hurt, either.

Summary
“Now would be an excellent time to exercise your comprehension skills, Draco. Do you understand what your mother and I are telling you?” It was a direct question from his father.
Draco leaned back in his armchair as he drummed his fingers on each of the armrests. “There is going to be another war. I, alongside my foil or my enemy, will fall in love. Unfortunately, our romance will be short-lived because we are fated to duel to the death. Whichever of us survives will turn the war in their favour. Did I hit all the high points, Father?”
“We will do everything to ensure that it is you who survives. You will live, and you will help us win whatever war lurks on the horizon.”
“Have we determined the identity of my foil?” Draco asked in a clipped tone.
“Yes.”
Draco was quickly growing bored of tediously extracting information from his parents. He raised a brow and asked, “Pray tell, who has the honours of falling in love with me just so I can murder them?”
“Hermione. Hermione Granger.”
I'm fucked, Draco thought.
