Hermione spends the summer before her last year at Hogwarts in the hospital battling a deadly sickness. To her horror, she discovers her mysterious illness is actually her body transforming to accommodate her mate - her very Veela mate. No one knows who or where her mate is. The last thing she expects is to find him at Hogwarts - or have it be Draco Malfoy. Rejecting him means his death. Can Hermione do what she must? JK ROWLING OWNS ALL HP CHARACTERS

I think the title is pretty much self explanatory. I own nothing except for the plotlines.

"What brings you here, Malfoy?" Hermione questioned the man in front of her, perplexed. "Is that how you greet an old friend, Granger?" Draco smirked as if they were . . . actually friends. "I do not have time for your nonsense tricks, Malfoy. Feel free to leave my office if you're only here to annoy than to be at any help." Hermione gritted her teeth but composed herself even if she's completely puzzled about Draco Lucius Malfoy, being here, in her office. "I have come to collect," Draco smiled at Hermione with complete satisfaction in his face, "Granger." Draco leaned closer to the woman in front of him. NOTE: THIS IS ONLY A FAN FICTION FOR DRAMIONE. I DO NOT OWN ANY OF THE CHARACTERS, SPELLS, AND SETTINGS USED. EVERYTHING IS OWNED BY J.K. ROWLING AND THE WORLD OF HARRY POTTER.

Hermione and Draco were enemies. At least, that's what everyone thought. They had maintained a secret friendship for years. They had even thought about being more than friends. But, will one person ruin it all?

What If the Yule ball was a masquerade ? What if no one knew who anyone was until the unmasking at midnight? What would happen when, 7th year, Draco Malfoy asks masked Hermione Granger to dance not knowing their true identities ? And what would happen at the unmasking once they would be revealed ? Set during 7th year loosely! It's not exactly like the books, it's my own timeline and my own spin. This story was originally on my Instagram and now I'm going to put it on watt pad. I love your comments but don't complain please. Enjoy *THIS DOES NOT FOLLOW THE BOOKS!!! YES I KNOW THAT ITS DIFFERENT. The plot in the books is usually ignored and rewritten my own way. It is set Seventh year (their last year at hogwarts during the war.) Please stop commenting that my writing is wrong.*
