    Summary

    It's almost 8 years since The Battle of Hogwarts and Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy are married... to other people. Having both pushed the trauma of the wizarding war behind them, they are both looking to rebuild their lives and create new legacies. Hermione is steadily climbing the ranks of the Ministry of Magic under Kinglsey Shacklebolt while Draco Malfoy, in need of a chance to redeem his spirit and name, takes a job in the Shacklebolt administration.

    Working closely together, Draco and Hermione create a bond they never knew they needed. Both of them are in loveless marriages with people who don't meet their emotional, physical, or intellectual needs and slowly, they realize they can't fight the magnetic force that keeps pulling them together.

    "And all the pieces fall
    Right into place
    Getting caught up in a moment
    Lipstick on your face
    (So it goes)
    I'm yours to keep
    And I'm yours to lose
    You know I'm not a bad girl
    But I do bad things with you
    (So it goes)
    -Taylor Swift
