Summary
The only thing worse than lost time is stolen memories. Told in alternating POV between present and past.
Past: Draco tries his best to ignore his budding feelings. A war is coming and entertaining delusions about a particular Mudblood will only endanger them both. Throughout his years at Hogwarts, he struggles with what he desires and what he has to do to keep her safe. But in the face of death, he will have to decide just how far he's willing to go for the girl who hates him or the master who's shaping him into a weapon.
Present: Hermione's hold on her mind is tenuous at best. Stuck between a normal life and nightmares of another, she can't shake the feeling that she's missing something. When she is captured, her worst fears are confirmed. She has to come to grips with her precarious sanity and lost memories. Her captors seem to think she's the best chance they have at luring Draco Malfoy out of hiding. What happened in the 18 months since the Battle of Hogwarts and why was it so impactful that someone felt the need to erase it from her mind?
TLDR: She's Draco's biggest weakness but doesn't even remember who he is. He will stop at nothing to get her back and make those who dared to hurt her pay.
