Summary
It's eight years post-war, and Hermione Granger has got her shit together. She worked hard to get past her trauma from the war. She finished her education. Now, she heads up her own division of the Department of Mysteries, she travels the world studying ancient rituals, and she's got a perfectly balanced life that is absolutely going to stay that way, thank you very much.
Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy has made a new life for himself in France. He, too, has worked through his war trauma, finished his education, and built himself a fulfilling career. His life doesn't need to be shaken up by a series of international murders that just so happens to bring him home to England and force him to collaborate with the girl he tormented for the entirety of their school years.
Now, Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy are chasing a ritualistic killer and simultaneously discovering that the person they are working with is not the same as the one they used to know.
Featuring (mostly) emotionally healthy characters, meddling friends, long conversations, and smutty sandwich-making, with a side of murder and a sprinkling of snark.

Summary
Four years after the war, Hermione Granger has only one mission: to cure her parents’ obliviation—a pursuit long hindered by her more than turbulent relationship with Ron Weasley. With their explosive breakup behind her, she sets her sights on earning Masteries in Mind Healing and Potioneering at the Advanced Institute of Magickry and Spellage, determined to find the missing piece to heal her parents.
But when Draco Malfoy, newly freed from house arrest, unexpectedly becomes her research partner and ally, she realizes that there’s more to the boy she once knew and the man he has become. In the midst of it all, Hermione finds herself navigating far more than potions and spellwork. Between foraging expeditions, Ron’s explosive anger, and Rita Skeeter’s slanderous headlines, their partnership deepens under mounting pressure, even as ominous whispers from the shadows threaten to undo everything they’re fighting for.

Summary
5 years ago, Draco Malfoy was forced to choose who lives and who dies: his wife or his son.
Since the death of Astoria, Draco has kept his head down, and his son safe. Continuing his work as an Auror, he's tried to find the killer known as the 'Reaper'. Things have been quiet until a familiar Curse-Breaker has a breakthrough in countering the Unforgivables. A breakthrough so brilliant, that it awakens a demon from his past.
When Hermione Granger discovers how to counter the Cruciatus Curse, she garners the attention of the Reaper. Forced to put her research on hold while Auror Malfoy is assigned to protect her, Hermione struggles with the lack of workload. Her recent engagement to Ronald Weasley was broken due to her struggle to have children. With the possibility of being barren looming over her, Hermione is struggling with self-worth, grief, and life.
That is, until she's asked to watch Scorpius Malfoy whilst Draco tries to solve cases that are steadily leading him closer and closer to the Reaper's whereabouts. It's then that she realizes that not all families are made; they're found. Only... getting close to Scorpius and his hot father could get her killed.

Summary
Draco Malfoy, CEO of Malfoy Holdings, is busy with work and needs to get his matchmaking mother and a host of rapacious society gold diggers off his back.
Hermione Granger desperately needs cash to care for her parents who are suffering the effects of a backfired memory charm reversal.
Draco’s solution: Hire Granger to be his fake girlfriend.
*****
“Granger, I don’t have time for courtship. I’m too busy for champagne and flowers and coddling a needy witch. I just need someone to accompany me on business dinners and when I go to galas and cocktail parties without the complications or expectations that a girlfriend would bring.”
“Why me?” she asked.
Draco gave her an ironic look. “Because you’re the last witch who would ever want to marry me.”

Summary
Eight years after the war, Hermione Granger has rebuilt her life. She has carved out a career, raised her six-month-old daughter, Rose, and endured the grief of losing Ron Weasley, who was murdered by rogue Death Eaters before ever meeting his child.
When the Muggle-Born Protection Act is proposed—an insidious law that would strip Muggle-borns of their autonomy by assigning them a pureblood guardian—Hermione’s name becomes the centerpiece of a political debate she never agreed to be a part of.
The last person she expects to offer a solution is Narcissa Malfoy.
Poised and deliberate, Narcissa proposes a bargain: if Hermione agrees to marry Draco Malfoy, she will be exempt from the law, her status as a pureblood’s wife making her untouchable in the eyes of the Ministry. In return, the Malfoy family—still tainted by its past loyalties—will gain the one thing it cannot buy: social redemption.
Hermione and Draco must navigate a world where alliances are never simple, and where trust is as fragile as the paper their marriage contract is written on.But some things cannot be kept on paper.
And gold is not always the most valuable thing in a bargain.- Language:

Summary
It's been nearly ten years since the end of the war, and Hermione Granger is finally (mostly) happy. Her research at the Ministry is going exceptionally well, she's almost certainly going to be nominated for a prestigious Merlin Award for Magical Excellence that would have her name synonymous with magical theory across the world, and she's managed to keep all her pot plants alive over the summer.
But as things start to go strangely wrong in Wizarding Britain, Hermione must reluctantly team up with the only person who could ever threaten her chances of winning the greatest academic achievement a witch could hope for- Draco Malfoy.
When their investigation of a possessed Ministry intern quickly becomes far more complicated than either of them could've ever imagined, the pair must find a way to work together and prevent a catastrophe that could shatter the very foundations of the magical world.
Working with your arch-rival isn't easy, and as long-buried secrets and plots start to come to light, Hermione and Draco soon learn that demons may be the least of their problems…

Summary
"I don't want your pity, Granger," he seethes. "I'm still in your debt. I haven't made amends yet."
"Oh, so you're planning to?" she asks more cheekily than she is feeling.
Malfoy's eyes flash as if she had challenged him to a duel.
"Is there something you need? Just say the word and I'll give it to you. Or do you prefer actions? I'm willing to do fucking anything..."
Hermione's heart is beating indecently fast. She masks her fascination with a sceptically raised eyebrow.
"Anything," she echoes.
"Anything," he confirms.
"All right, then. For starters, I'd like you to stop crowding me against this bookshelf."

Summary
Perhaps her beauty might’ve been an issue for a man twenty years his junior. One who was anything other than repellent to women. But even at its most significant, his appreciation of her would only over exist from afar. It would only be an issue if his attraction was reciprocated.
So it would not be an issue.Or
Severus takes Hermione on as an apprentice and acts professionally around her.

Summary
Sixteen years post-war, Draco Malfoy has reinvented himself: Head Auror of the French Ministry, internationally respected, hero-adjacent, and absolutely not still a security risk (depending on who you ask). So when Harry Potter lures him back to Britain with the promise of power, prestige and MILD public outrage, Draco's only question is: how bad could it possibly be?
Hermione Granger-Weasley is the Ministry's golden girl: war hero, legal prodigy, and the woman most likely to stabilise the government before her second cup of coffee. With Shacklebolt stepping down ahead of the November elections and two dangerously mediocre men circling the job like vultures, Hermione is the obvious - and reluctantly willing - successor. Backed by a few loyal allies, a lot of policy and a marriage that looks respectable (if you squint), she doesn't have time for distractions. Especially not in the form of Draco Malfoy: smug, silver-tongued, and recently hired into her orbit like a bad decision in expensive tailoring. Unfortunately he's infuriatingly competent. And even more unfortunately - he agrees with her.
OR how did Hermione Granger become Minister for Magic and how the fuck did Malfoy get roped into this deluded shit show.

Eighth Year Dramione. Drama. Secrets. Healing. Slow burn. Explicit Content.
"And I know you don't care about my blood. Not like you used to."
He gulps on the morning air that feels heavier than it should, weighed down by confessions. Charged with something she can't name.
He takes a few deep breaths, shutting his eyes tightly. Angling away from her, clenching his fists.
Too much, she realizes.
She had stepped over the line—hurled herself across it and dragged him with her. Let her words throw the two of them into a place too deep.
She opens her mouth with an apology on her tongue when—
"I never cared about your blood."
