"I would rather burn the whole world to ash with my own two hands than stand quietly beside you and watch what you intend to make of it."
Hermione Granger came out of the ritual with a stolen name, a magic she doesn't understand, and no way home.
Thrown back to 1944 with power that answers to nothing she was ever taught, she does the only thing she knows how to do: she survives. She claims the name of an extinct pureblood line. She buries herself in alchemy, chasing a way back to the time she knew.
She doesn't notice, not at first, how many of the doors opening for her lead straight back to Tom Riddle.
He wants her. Not her hand, not her heart, just her mind, her power, her name. She tells herself that's the only thing he'll ever get.
She's wrong about that too.
