    Summary

    Hermione Granger has always felt like an outsider in the wizarding world. When the well-guarded secret of her birth is finally uncovered, no one takes the news harder than Draco Malfoy. He spent years despising her for what she was. Now he has to reckon with the fact that he was wrong, and that somewhere between the hate and their terrible history, something is shifting without his permission. But wanting someone doesn't undo all the harm you've done to them. And Hermione didn't survive years of his contempt just to make things easy for him now.

    A story about the regrets that don't let go, and the cost of making the wrong choice.

    Summary

    In post-war Wizarding London, Hermione Granger has spent the last five years working as an Auror alongside Harry Potter.

    Draco Malfoy has been undercover since Voldemort’s fall, embedded in a Romanian blood purist society that operates far beyond the Ministry’s reach.

    In Romania, a new dark wizard has risen, calling himself the Blood Regent. Masked and anonymous, he is building something structured and deliberate, determined to correct what he sees as Voldemort’s failures and eliminate anyone who stands in his way.

    When Hermione is sent to Romania under the false identity of Draco Malfoy’s wife, she is forced to navigate pureblood society from the inside or risk her life in a world where outsiders do not survive for long.

    Summary

    Hermione and Snape take up cohabitating work space at Grimmauld Place after Spinner's End is burned down. She cannot help but feel the Potions Master is still hiding something, and why does he have an enchanted ring?

    Before she has time to figure out, she's sent decades into the past, left to contend with a rising dark lord, her best friend's parents, and a teenage potions prodigy.

    ---------------------------------------
    “Headmaster! She’s awake!” The voice that most certainly cannot be Poppy Pomfrey, but is, calls, a voice Hermione hasn’t heard in months.

     

    Worst of all, Hermione turns her head to glance at the entryway –

     

    where a dead man is looking at her.

    Summary

    Hermione never expected to find solace after the war.
    She definitely never expected to find solace in Draco Malfoy.
    But somehow, she did.

    OR

    A mandatory Eighth Year at Hogwarts promised healing.

    It doesn’t.

    Hermione Granger returns feeling like a hollowed out version of herself. With parents who don’t remember her, and an insistent tremor in her hands left over from Bellatrix’s Cruciatus curse, she no longer feels right. Her nightmares keep her up at night, she’s growing thin, and she can’t stop noticing Draco Malfoy.

    Watching him becomes a habit.

    Healing him becomes a secret.

    And being around him becomes a lifeline.

    Summary

    Draco didn’t look away. His hand curled into a tight fist at his side. He could feel the sheer power of their combined magic flowing through him. If he could stop her torture, she could take his magic for all he cared. After this, did he even deserve it?

    When Hermione is tortured in Malfoy Manor, her magic tries to save her and bonds with Draco's in order to end her suffering. She discloses at his trial that they are magically bonded and therefore, under wizard law, he must be aquitted. It also means that if they don't marry and complete the bond within a year, their magical cores will slowly begin to die. Narcissa is determined to turn Hermione into the perfect wife of a Pureblood by the time they wed, and enlists the help of Pansy Parkinson to teach her everything she needs to know. What could possibly go wrong?

    Summary

    Hermione meant to go back to the night Severus Snape died.

    Before the blood and silence and all the truths learned too late.

    Instead, the Time-Turner shatters.

    Hermione falls nearly thirty years into the past and lands in Spinner’s End, where Severus Snape is not yet a spy, a professor, a murderer, a hero, or a dead man.

    He is nine years old.

    Thin, furious, brilliant, half-starved, and already expecting the world to hurt.

    Stranded in 1969 with no way home, no legal identity, and no idea how much damage one misplaced kindness might do to history, Hermione finds herself with Aunt Vera’s spare room, a broken Time-Turner, and a child who does not know how to be helped.

    There will be tea. Laundry. Drying charms. Butterbeer. Mistakes.

    And slowly, Hermione begins to understand that saving Severus Snape may have very little to do with the night he died.

     

    Author’s Note: This is eventual HG/SS, but the romance is a very late-story development. The early and middle sections focus on Hermione stranded in 1969, young Severus, found family, healing, and timeline changes. There is no romantic dynamic while Severus is a child.

What she isn't ready for is what happens in the Department of Mysteries.

    Summary

    24 Witches and Wizards. 12 Hours. 1 Marriage Law.

    In post-war Wizarding Britain, the young survivors are avoiding marriage at all costs and trying to live their lives without the threat of the Dark Lord over their heads. With no viable marriages on record in five years, the Ministry enacts a mandatory marriage law.

    Thus, the Golden Trio and their peers are forced into a blind marriage pool. Hermione Granger is matched with the one person she's been avoiding since the end of the war - Draco Malfoy. Forced into a room for 12 hours to accept or reject the match, Hermione can't deny the draw she feels to the Malfoy heir. She just doesn't know if she wants to kill or kiss him. As the room tests them in ways they did not anticipate, they must deal with their undeniable compatibility and the secrets that threaten to tear them apart. If they can stop arguing long enough to make the choice together.

    Were the hidden cameras necessary? Not really. Should Kingsley have thrown a watch party in the Wizengamot Chambers? Probably not. Was the Minister having the time of his life? Most definitely.

    The clock is ticking.

    Summary

    "Malfoy!"

    A startled yelp echoed from the showers just as Granger turned the corner and came face to face with Draco...who was wet in the shower, only a half wall covering his lower body.

    "Granger, I'm showering!"

    She turned her back immediately and rolled her eyes.

    "Relax. I didn't see anything. Your male nudity is a much smaller problem than me not being able to breathe properly."

    "And this couldn't have waited five minutes?" He should have sounded angry. Instead, something in his chest tightened at how wrong she looked even with her back turned--tense shoulders, one hand braced against a locker, breathing too shallow.

    "Fine," Hermione sighed. "I didn't see anything, but if I had, it's very nice. You're fit. Be proud. Now fix your ribs."

    Draco froze.

    His ribs, the bludger from tryouts...

    And suddenly he understood--she wasn't imagining pain. She was feeling his injuries, and worse than he was.

    "Granger..."

    "What?"

    "You need to sit down."

    "No, you need to stop being stu--"

    One moment she was arguing. The next she was unconscious in his arms.

    "I need to speak to your lousy, great-great-whatever grandson!"
    The dark-eyed Malfoy laughed. "Close enough. Down the stairs, take three lefts until you see a painting of a Griffin Hunt."
    Hermione nodded, mind already on cursing Malfoy when the portrait's low baritone halted her.
    "Oh, and Dolly?"
    She glanced back despite herself, unease coiling in her gut.
    "It's good to see you here."
    Later, she wouldn't be able to recall whether she had marched towards Malfoy, or had fled from his ancestor's grin.

    Hermione Granger thought attending the Malfoy Gala was going to be a one-night affair, but Malfoy Manor never intended to let her go. Isolated and alone, she is forced to face a system where personal freedom is up for deliberation, and continuity always prevails. Her only hope lies with Lord Draco Malfoy, an utter arse caught in a perpetual power struggle with his father, and an overly accommodating Narcissa, who seems to understand the Manor better than any Malfoy man ever could.

    Summary

    Please mind the trigger warnings.

    Draco Malfoy hadn’t expected to ever see Hermione Granger again. Six months after the war, with Harry Potter dead and the Malfoy name barely spared from Azkaban, Draco returns to Hogwarts for a memorial ceremony he has no intention of attending. Instead, he finds Hermione alone, pregnant, and grieving.
    Draco is forced to confront what his family knew, what they ignored, and how deep the rot in his own house truly went.
    For Hermione Granger, the war did not end when Voldemort fell, and for Draco Malfoy, the greatest mercy he can offer may be staying far away from her.

    “So you did nothing.”

    “Yes. I did nothing,” he snapped. “I was sixteen, and I did nothing. Then I was seventeen, and I did nothing. Then I stood in a courtroom while people called what I did brave because I failed to identify you properly. I did the smallest decent thing possible after years of cowardice, and they let me live for it. So no, Granger, I don’t expect you to think me innocent. I don’t even expect you to think me human most days.”

    She blinked at him, her eyes glassy and unseeing.

    "Come have tea at the manor."

    Summary

    Voldemort won at the Battle of Hogwarts and seven years later Britain's Wizarding World is ruled by the Dark Lord. The resistance is fractured, and those who remain fight within shadows.

    Hermione is one of the last beacons of resistance, fighting in the shadows for those the regime has hunted to near extinction.

    Draco lives beneath the weight of legacy and obligation in a world where survival demands loyalty and silence. When a mission brings him face to face with someone thought lost to the war, buried truths begin to rise.

    She's not the girl he remembers, and he’s not the boy he used to be. When their paths collide as the regime tightens its grip and propaganda blurs truth and memory, alliances are tested, old love is twisted into something unrecognizable, and survival means sacrificing more than ever before.

    This story has been sectioned into three parts, you will see this indicated in the chapter titles.

    Summary

    Voldemort won. The wizarding world has fallen.

    Hermione Granger is the newest weapon in the Order’s desperate fight against the Death Eaters—striking them where it hurts most. Their Blood. Their Magic. Their Identity.

    But when circumstances force her to let herself be captured, she finds herself sent to Malfoy Manor, under the watchful eyes of Draco Malfoy. His task: break her. Learn her secrets. Bend her to his will.

    But Hermione has her own plans. Survival, sabotage, and the slow unraveling of everything Draco thought he knew will collide in a game of minds, power, and restraint. And in the shadows of a darkened world, alliances blur, hearts harden, and what begins as hatred may yet become something far more complicated.

    Or- How Hermione decided to terrorise these fuckers back.
