THIS IS NOT MINE originally from fanfiction.net so I've republished this because Dramionehub deleted this here awhile ago. and please enjoy the story as I did. Two years after the war, a young stranger pays a visit to the burrow. His arrival alone is baffling, but the news he brings of an upcoming war turns the world upside down. Hermione's quiet, post-war life will never be the same.

Warning: If you haven't read the Tightly Knit Series, read the other books first before continuing on or read at your own risk! Clara Easton had a more than decent life before the start of the Second Wizarding War. Upon her first year she was sorted into Hufflepuff, made friends and enjoyed her schooling for the first few years. She was kind soul and described as beautiful by her peers . She lived up to traits of her house dedicating herself to working hard and remaining loyal to those she loved, especially when the Battle of Hogwarts arrived. She, along with hundreds of other students remained at the castle to defend their school and secondary home against the Dark Lord and his followers. During the battle, Clara fought bravely, but it wasn't enough to save her from the damaging scars she received from a werewolf attack. She was thankful to survive the attack, but it left her with scars that she could not hide from her peers. At first, she wanted to hide herself from the world, but the need to complete her education brings her back to Hogwarts once more where she ends up seeing a person she least expected to return. Draco's seventh year didn't go exactly how he envisioned it would, with the responsibilities of a Death Eater looming over his head, Draco felt like he never got to experience his seventh year properly. He returns to Hogwarts, fully aware that his previous actions have left him with a tarnished reputation that he is certain he cannot recover from. At least not without a little help and the last place he thought he would find help would be from a Hufflepuff. Slowly, the two students realize that second chances are not given to make things right. But are given to prove that one can be better even after they fall. *Part of the Tightly Knit series*

❛And do you know what's the stupidest thing about this?❜ said Draco and made an aggressive step towards me. ❛That after all this,❜ he grasped my forearm violently and made me backstep in fear. ❛After all this trouble,❜ he said and pushed me against the wall despite my tries to get away. ❛After all these fights,❜ he closed up and stuck his body on mine, putting his hand on my neck almost painfully. ❛I still want you so badly, it hurts,❜ he said and looked at me with both anger and lust and passion. ❛God, I want you so much and I want to kill you at the same time. You stupid, little girl, I fucking love you.❜ Despite being Voldemort's daughter, Dumbledore's goddaughter and destined to lead, Annalise Riddle was born in a world ordinary and plain. Thrown into a life full of magic and wonders, she stumbles upon her fate. This is not just a love story. This is a story of self-sacrifice and being brave enough to seek your destiny. ❛The Lost Daughter is now born. Lady she is meant to be and Lady she will be, and a Dark Lord's daughter. Beware, for only she knows the key to his collapse. Long may she reign and retribution shall be ours.❜ *Highest Rank: #2 in fanfiction and #1 in draco* If you like this story, I am sure you would also like its prequel.

I don't own Harry Potter or the characters. But the storyline is mine. No copyright permitted. I wrote this when I was 16-17 for fun. Maybe I'll rewrite this one day and improve it. It is not 100% true to the information of the books (or movies) -------------------------------------------- The war has ended and everyone is grieving for their losses and recovering from the battle and the destruction it has caused. But Hermione has received news that changed everything. She survived one battle, only to come home to another, and this time it may be one she won't survive. The second of May, 1998. That was the battle of Hogwarts. The day she though it would all end. 4 months had passed. It was August. And Hermione begged her parents to let her redo her final year at Hogwarts. She promised herself if she did go back, then no one was allowed to know what she had been dealing with and what she was still fighting. But what she hadn't been expecting was that Malfoy would find out far before anyone else would. He helps her more than anyone else could, showing both what the hard years had done to both young adults. They both fight for something together, To live past 19. ********************* Unedited! *********************

Draco gave a cocky grin. "I am going to give you a makeover." "I'm sorry what?" "You heard me Granger, I'm going to give you a makeover that will make every man want you,and make Weasley die of regret. You will be simply irresistible." Now Complete!

*[finally] COMPLETE* Their lives haven't crossed paths since the last battle, and a lot has changed since then. Hermione, recently divorced and searching for solid ground, needed a safe haven where Ron didn't matter anymore. Draco's life was seemingly normal, but after having lost someone close, he felt more alone then ever. Draco and Hermione were different people in the same place. But together, they were able to make an unforgettable past seem irrelevant and finally merge onto a single road.

"We're soulmates." Draco said as soon as Hermione opened the door. "That's rather straight-forward, don't you think, Malfoy?" -=- Draco Malfoy; 19 and full of regrets Hermione Granger; 19 and full of desire to start again -=- My ability to write coherently has improved since writing this book, but apologies in advance for any typos as i've yet to proof-read it. I'm pretty sure the grammar and spelling is adequate excluding the occasional typo :) DM me about any enquires relating to the translation of this text.
