    Summary

    Hermione Granger had been asked—and agreed—to do many absurd things since learning she was a witch, usually involving Harry Potter. This long list included, in no particular order, smuggling baby dragons, being placed unconscious at the bottom of a lake surrounded by merpeople, and traveling back in time to fly an escaped convict to safety on the back of a mythical creature. But returning to a Death Eater-controlled Hogwarts pretending to be Daphne Greengrass may have been the most ridiculous yet.

    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

    Hermione convinces Draco to spy for the Order and she becomes his handler. But what are his true motivations? Hard to say when he's still figuring that out himself.

    Draco cut her off. “You may have my wand, but you're not in control of the flow of information here. It’s not your life on the line.”

    Granger bristled at his assertion. “My life is on the line every day.”

    “So. Is. Mine.” He growled back. “Give me my fucking wand and don’t be so bloody obvious when you contact me.”

    She narrowed her eyes. “I already told you I'd be more careful next time.”

    She better be.

    “One more thing.”

    “What, Malfoy?” she snapped, still angry she hadn’t gotten the information she wanted.

    He pointed his finger at her so she would understand how important this was. “You need to learn Occlumency. If you’re captured, I’m dead.”

    She stared back in defiance. “We both are.”

    He couldn’t argue with that.

    She tossed his wand to the floor and Disapparated with a crack.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger is not one for fashion. It's not that she doesn't know how to look good, just that she can't be bothered to spare the time. So when her new friend Pansy offers to make her over, she thinks why not?

    Her new look makes her feel good, happy and confident. There's only one fly in her ointment--her partner and office mate Draco Malfoy. But then, he's never had anything good to say about her appearance, so why should that bother her?

    It doesn't, not really. She just wishes she understood what his problem is. And what, precisely, went wrong between them.

    (in which Draco has Feelings and Hermione is oblivious, because honestly this is a trope I could write all day long)

    Summary

    He regards her with interest, cool as the ice in his G&T. “What do you want?”

    On close inspection, he's a bit deadly. It's the combined power of self-regard, an open ear, and a cunningly tailored suit.

    Hermione wants—

    “An expiration date would be nice.” She suctions up the watery dregs and signals for more. “Let’s say I want . . . a year. Exactly one year of monogamy without the possibility of further commitment."
