    Summary

    After the fall of the Order, Hermione Granger is no longer a symbol of light—she’s a hunter, hollowed and vicious, set on killing Voldemort with or without her soul intact. Draco Malfoy, Voldemort’s most feared lieutenant, hides a secret rebellion: he’s planning the Dark Lord’s murder. But when he saves Hermione in a moment of weakness, they’re both pulled into the House of Penumbra—an ancient, sentient place that traps them together.

    The House doesn’t speak. It watches. It remembers. And it won’t release them until something deeper than vengeance begins to bloom.

    Surrounded by living murals, shifting shadows, and their own buried grief, Hermione and Draco must do the one thing they were never taught: feel. Heal. And care about someone other than the dead.

    In a world where survival meant becoming monsters, maybe the only true rebellion left is learning how to love again.

    Because the House was built for a single purpose: to choose who is worthy of saving the world—and to make them bleed for it.

    A gothic, psychological, slow-burn Dramione.
    Dark magic. Enemies to reluctant allies. Emotional devastation.
    Healing as resistance. And a house that won’t let go.
