Summary
It’s the smell of it. Chemical. Bitter and sharp as a raw edge on metal. Just a hint of it as she passes him at breakfast — but enough to stop her dead, mid-step.
There is Wolfsbane in his tea.

Summary
Hermione Granger, well, sorry, Deputy Headmistress Hermione Granger, has picked up the pieces after the Second Wizarding War and established herself as a respected faculty member at Hogwarts. But that doesn't mean that the world didn't come out of the War unscathed. A strange virus was released by the Death Eaters just before they were captured that is leading to declining magical abilities of witches and wizards and its gradually getting worse. Hermione was tasked with running a lab to determine the cause and cure for the virus, but is struggling with limited Ministry funding and resources. That is, until a former Death Eater, who now sits in Azkaban, is given to her as a lab assistant since he might have information about the virus-he was, after all, there when it was created. Court ordered to her lab against her wishes, Draco Malfoy and Hermione must try to work together. But it's not that simple. In fact, everything they thought they knew about each other becomes even more complicated than they could have imagined.

Summary
There can only be one.
Hermione and Draco compete for a permanent and prominent position working with the Minister of Magic through a year-long Internship—a goal they had both been chasing for many years.
Hot tempers and deep hatred begin to transform into something else entirely as they are thrown together both professionally and within their merging friend circles.
Featuring much banter, tension, pining, poor decisions, denial of feelings, light angst,
and guaranteed HEA.Who will the Minister pick once the Internship comes to an end?
Inspired by The Hating Game and every coworker rivalry story that came before. It’s my absolute favorite trope. 🥰

Summary
Narcissa Malfoy betraying Voldermort to save her son brings Draco Malfoy, reluctantly, into the folds of The Order. This does nothing to dull how much Hermione Granger despises him, or vice versa. In close contact with each other, it's predictable that the underlying tensions will come to a boil.
Repeatedly.
Unpredictable, however, is how much these close encounters will follow Hermione through the war.

Summary
“Glee was the last thing she felt staring into the empty eyes that should have been a bright grey. His face had always looked pointed and sharp, but now that gave way to gauntness. His hair, which he had been so particular about in school, hung long and limp. It reminded her of how his father had looked in his mugshot. How he had wanted to be just like his father growing up. And now he was, maybe more than ever.
A ghost.”After doing more than her fair share in saving the Wizarding World and bearing the scars of what it cost, Hermione Granger thinks she has earned herself a little respite. But when a charismatic albeit chaotic Theodore Nott convinces her to use an old law to save a dear friend who is about to meet the Dementor’s Kiss, she simply cannot stand by and watch. Follow Hermione as she navigates a world that still believes in blood status, a marriage to save the life of an old enemy and the hurt that comes with surviving.

16 years have passed since the Battle of Hogwarts and the Wizarding world has gained some semblance of peace.
Draco Malfoy is no longer the hot-headed boy he was during the war, but has matured and faced his dark past. However, Draco's growth is tested when occult-like murders rock the DMLE and he is asked to return to England to assist in solving them.
Hermione Granger is still haunted by the ghosts of her past. She works for the DMLE as a rune and ward specialist, but she harbors resentment towards the Ministry of Magic for its lack of progress following Voldemort's defeat.
What happens when Draco and Hermione are assigned as partners to solve the murders? Will they be able to place their differences aside and catch the culprit before another Dark Lord emerges?

Summary
9 years after the battle of Hogwarts, the war still rages on and everyone is much changed since their days at Hogwarts.
Hermione is the most lethal soldier in The Order, spending her days on rescue missions to free captured Muggleborn slaves and fight on the front line. For years, she's been meeting in secret with a spy within Voldemort's ranks to exchange information.
But when she's captured and made prisoner at Malfoy Manor, of all the dark and evil ways she'd envisioned Malfoy would torture her, she never quite imagined anything this horrific.I just wanted to make it abundantly clear that I was originally inspired to write this fic after I read the masterpiece that is Manacled, so I would like to thank SenLinYu for her amazing work! The memory searching aspect of Manacled is what inspired me, and although I have adapted that, (and also made Draco head Death Eater, because... ya know... we all love it when he's Voldemort's right hand man 😅😉), Secrets and Masks will be a very very different fic all together.

Nowhere else to turn (Nusquam aliud est vertere) by valancyjane
Fandoms: Harry Potter - J. K. Rowling

Summary
February 2003: Draco Malfoy is living as a virtual recluse in Muggle London. Finding a drugged and helpless Hermione Granger on the doorstep of his townhouse in the middle of the night fundamentally changes his existence… and hers.
A story of redemption, reconnections, sexual awakening, mystery, and Dramione romance. HEA guaranteed.
Primarily an erotic love story, with some elements of mystery (though the roofie subplot is not the principal feature of the narrative).
Bonus content: Hansy (Harry x Pansy), Blussie (Blaise x Gussie - OC), and minor Vinny (Viktor x Ginny).'Draco stills and tips down his head; her dusky eyelashes are fluttering open like frantic butterflies. His own heartbeat inexplicably races as he breathes, “Granger?”
Her variegated brown eyes widen in first recognition, then panic, as Hermione whispers, “Malfoy... didn't know where else to go... he drugged me – he roofied me-” Granger struggles feebly against his hold; her extraordinary utterance shocks Draco badly enough that he almost drops her. Drugged her? Roofied her?
What in the name of Salazar is going on here tonight?’

Summary
‘Where’s my wand?’ he mutters into his knees.
Jameson glances at one of the Aurors who edges his way closer.
‘The Ministry seized it when you—’
‘I want my wand,’ he says, and he sounds…tiny. Like a little boy.
‘Look lad, once you’re in the shelter, you can see about getting your wand back,’ the Auror closest to his side says, the badge at his hip glinting.
‘I can’t go there,’ Malfoy says into his knees. ‘Please. Please don’t make me go there.’ I realise he’s crying. That he’s hiding his face to stop them from seeing. That this is the first time I’ve ever heard him say the word please. That he’s scared. That Draco Malfoy is asking for help.
Something shatters inside me and—
‘He can stay with me.’
