    Summary

    When Hermione and Percy are mistakenly assumed to be engaged after an overheard conversation at the Ministry, neither of them corrects the misunderstanding—Hermione because it keeps nosy reporters at bay, and Percy because, for once, he enjoys being admired for something other than his career. But as they spend more time together faking their engagement, Hermione starts noticing things about Percy she never saw before—his unwavering loyalty, his intelligence, and the way he always notices when she needs a cup of tea. Their friendship is purely intellectual at first—debating laws, discussing magical advancements—but soon, Percy finds himself drawn to her warmth, and Hermione is surprised by his dry wit and quiet kindness. By the time the truth comes out, Hermione wonders if pretending was ever necessary at all.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger needed a change. Not a soulmark. Not a dragon-infested war zone. And definitely not Charlie Weasley—who, unfortunately, comes with all of the above.

    Fresh off a breakup and burnt out from Ministry life, she signs up for a year at a Romanian dragon reserve. There, she finds fire, chaos, and a deeply inconvenient attraction to the tattooed lead handler who communicates exclusively in orders, sarcasm, and meaningful glances.

    But as poachers close in, the past comes calling, and as fairy lights start reacting to foreign magic, Hermione begins to suspect the dragons aren’t the most dangerous thing here.

    Welcome to the reserve. Try not to die.

    [Charlie/Hermione]
