Hermione Granger thought her seventh year at Hogwarts would finally be normal. But when an ancient curse binds her to the last person she ever expected-Draco Malfoy-normal shatters. A mysterious dagger, a dangerous chamber hidden beneath the castle, and a tether of magic neither of them can break force them into an uneasy alliance. Every spell they cast together strengthens the bond. Every secret they uncover pulls them deeper into shadows that threaten not only Hogwarts, but their very lives. He's infuriating. She's impossible. Yet the tether refuses to loosen-drawing them closer in ways neither can ignore. As old enemies rise, Hermione and Draco must decide: Will they destroy each other... or discover that the bond between them is the one thing worth fighting for? ✨ Enemies to reluctant allies. Allies to something more. ✨ A story of curses, secrets, and the fire between two hearts.

The Second Wizarding War is at a standstill. Both sides haven't made any substantial progress and the frontlines remain unchanging. Voldemort's legion is destroying the infrastructure. There is no order, but there is fear. But fear can't last forever, right? Resources are almost gone. Dumbledore's Army is suffering from the psychological trauma and displacement. Hope can be found in the darkest places, but what happens when the dark is so powerful it absorbs any and all light? After the very public execution of his parents, Draco Malfoy disappeared during a battle he was supposed to command with all the dragons. Dragons would be the perfect solution for either side to finally gain the upper hand. The Dark Lord and the Order both receive a letter to send one representative to convince Draco who he should side with. For someone who can't be tortured, can't be threatened, the only way to gain his loyalty is to convince him. Hermione Granger and Theo Nott are the representatives sent to convince him. Now Draco has to choose. The Order to save the woman he finds himself falling for or the Dark Lord to save what little family he has left. Everyone's lives are in his hands and it seems that Draco is holding onto a secret that could unravel everything. |Explicit content and graphic depictions of violence inside.|

War leaves scars - some visible, some buried deep. Returning to Hogwarts for their final year, Hermione Granger wants peace, and Draco Malfoy wants to disappear. Instead, they find each other. What begins as tension in the dungeons and late-night detentions shifts into reluctant partnership, stolen glances, and slow-burning want. But with secrets, trauma, guilt, and the weight of their reputations pressing in, love is the most dangerous thing of all. From heated arguments in the Restricted Section to quiet confessions under starlight... this is a story of rebuilding. Of choosing softness when everything inside you screams. Of knowing someone's worst - and still staying. Enemies to lovers. Lust to loyalty. Fire to forgiveness. And maybe... something like forever.

Draco Malfoy disappears into the Vanishing Cabinet on that terrible night of June 1997, changing the curse of events irreparably. Lord Voldemort kills Harry Potter and becomes a nightmare for wizards and muggles alike. An unexpected alliance between Muggles and the remaining members of the Order of the Phoenix brings the Dark Lord to his demise, but betrayals drags the Wizarding World into a bleak destiny where magic is illegal and hunted down fiercely. Alone and determined to fix things, Hermione Granger goes back to an abandoned Hogwarts to do the only thing that might save magic from dying: bringing back Malfoy and force him to clean up the mess he involuntary created. Little does she know he has been living in a future where things are even worse and when he steps out of the Cabinet, revenge is the only thing on his mind.

The war is finally over, and Hogwarts opens its doors once more-calling them back as seventh years to finish what was stolen, heal, and start fresh. No darkness, no fear, just a second chance. Hermione Granger is made Head Girl, determined to lead with grit and grace-only to find herself paired with Draco Malfoy as Head Boy. Gone is the cruel boy she once hated; now he's grown tall, broad, devastatingly handsome, maddeningly smug... and utterly obsessed with teasing her as his princess. She tries her hardest to stay professional-but between cheeky remarks, stolen glances, and electric tension, Draco is turning out to be the biggest, sweetest, most irresistible distraction of all. ‼️smut warning!

They didn't choose each other. They were assigned. When an unwelcome partnership program forces Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger together, resentment is inevitable. What isn't expected is the slow unraveling of certainty - rivalry giving way to trust, trust giving way to stolen moments, and stolen moments becoming something dangerous and deeply wanted. Beginning at fifteen and following them into adulthood, this is a story about hope found in secret, love chosen in defiance of fear, and the quiet courage it takes to follow the heart instead of the mind in a world determined to teach you otherwise. This is their love story.

"I shouldn't want this... I shouldn't want you. And yet..." The war is over. Hogwarts still stands. But some wounds refuse to close. Between ruined corridors, shared silences, and memories that refuse to stay buried, two former enemies are drawn into reluctant proximity. As Hermione's future leads her back to Hogwarts, and Draco struggles to earn a place in a world that no longer wants him, both must confront the same question: What remains after war - and can something broken still choose to love? A post-war Dramione slow burn about guilt, healing, and the quiet work of rebuilding - both castles and people.

Draco Malfoy is hiding a secret. He's a vampire. Turned during the Battle of Hogwarts, he's been living off donated blood, and discovering different ways to hide his 'condition' for the past six years. He was content to wallow in self-loathing until a rogue vampire attacks the blood vaults at St. Mungos. How's a vampire supposed to live with a blood shortage? Not in this economy. In an effort to fix Vampire-Wizard relations and make his life easier, Draco needs the support of the Ministry. Only issue? It means he has to work with Hermione Granger who is severely overworked and (surprisingly) not his biggest fan. She doesn't believe that he's 'changed' and suddenly cares about vampire rights. It doesn't help that Draco's still the sarcastic, brooding arsehole she knew from school. Hermione's determined to find out what he's hiding. Meanwhile Draco's determined to find out why her blood makes his mouth water and challenges his more... primal urges. Why does he want to sink his teeth into her every time she gets close? Read to find out how these two navigate politics and their feelings for each other. Updated every Saturday NSFW & SFW Art included
