Summary
“I need you to have sex with me.”
Draco stared at her, sure he had misheard. “Pardon?”
Hermione looked up at the ceiling, taking a deep breath. “I have it on good— I have heard— oh bloody hell,” she muttered. “I’m bad in bed. I need practice.”
His lungs had entirely stopped working. “Practice,” he repeated dully.
“Yes, practice.”
“At sex.”
“At sex.”
“And you came to me why?”
“Because what else are we going to do here this month?”

Summary
To truly know someone is to differentiate between who they once were, who they are now, and who they're capable of being. Hermione realises the duality of one man as she rectifies what she knows of the past and begins to understand the pieces of who Draco Malfoy is now: a father, a son, and a man.

Summary
The war is over, but Draco Malfoy’s true battle has just begun. Sentenced to life in Azkaban, his world shrinks to cold stone and the soul-crushing presence of Dementors. Before his trial, knowing madness awaits, Draco writes to Hermione Granger, not for forgiveness but to apologise while he still can.
He never expects her to reply. But when her letter arrives, it becomes a fragile thread connecting him to something beyond the void. Draco doesn’t believe in hope. His mind is slipping, his soul fracturing. But maybe, when it finally shatters, her words will be enough to keep the worst of the darkness at bay.
Hermione refuses to let him fade. Her letters are filled with warmth and light, a desperate effort to pull him back from the brink. As months turn into years, the battle between her determination and Azkaban’s cold grip becomes a race against time.
What begins as a lifeline becomes a map through the wreckage of what comes after. Healing, like love, begins in fragments.

Summary
CURRENTLY ON HIATUS
In a world divided into black and white, Hermione Granger has always been certain where she stands— on the "good" side, with her best friends. That is, until she returns to Hogwarts for her sixth year and starts paying attention to Draco Malfoy. While Harry is determined to expose him, to catch him in the act and prove his guilt, Hermione is, somehow, the only one who truly sees Draco. She pieces together his secrets, trailing him from the library to the Room of Requirement, uncovering a truth far more complicated than she expected.
As war looms and the lines between right and wrong blur, Hermione finds herself questioning everything she thought she knew about morality, loyalty, and even herself. Because Draco Malfoy isn’t just a Death Eater in the making—he’s a boy with shaking hands, a breaking heart, and a choice that isn’t a choice at all. And despite everything, she can’t seem to look away.

Summary
After the war, the Malfoys fled to France to escape the aftermath. But Draco stayed.
No press, no scandals, no politics. Just clay. Somehow, he’d become the Ministry’s quiet success story: fully reformed, annoyingly talented, and the reason half the witches in London suddenly cared about pottery.Hermione Granger hadn’t been looking for a new hobby or a distraction, especially not one involving wet clay, strong hands, and Draco bloody Malfoy in a tank top.
But curiosity had consequences.
The moment she stepped into his studio, she found herself caught in more than just a casual class. There was pressure. There was heat. There was the slow, patient build of something neither of them had planned for.
And once he started showing her how to work with clay, with control, with intention, with want, she knew she was in trouble.Because some things weren’t just shaped.
They were thrown. Wet. And cured hot.Series

Summary
Hermione Granger is a shop girl at Scrivenshaft’s. Year after year, Draco Malfoy visits on Christmas Eve in search of a gift.
~~~
He stands outside Scrivenshaft’s Quill Shop on Christmas Eve morning, per tradition.
Through the frosted, gilded windows, the shop appears empty, also per tradition. No one needs parchment and quills the day before Christmas, least of all Draco. Narcissa keeps the manor well stocked. He can pop in and select whatever suits his fancy at a moment’s notice.
What he does need is his yearly fix. He does not permit himself many indulgences these days. There’s only this and the occasional owl to stoke the undying embers of his heart. Or as Theo puts it, with his trademark combination of laughter and pity, “Time for your annual dose of torture, is it?”

Welcome Back to Hogwarts!!
This year is going to be a... well, a different year. The war is over, and a large portion of the 7th year students have come back to Hogwarts to an 8th Year - an unprecidented act by Headmistress McGonagall to give students a chance at a better final year, and to complete their N.E.W.T.s free from the distractions of war.
Except... our students are distracted. Immensely. And the witches of Hogwarts have taken to passing notes to air said distractions.Series
