Hermione Granger had it all. Head Auror, respected in her field, a life finally falling into order after years of chaos. But as fate often does, it wasn't long before things took a turn. Her latest case, a dark one, had her entrenched in the deepest shadows of wizarding society. And as if the world hadn't thrown enough at her, she found herself face-to-face with a ghost from her past-Draco Malfoy.
There he was, swaggering around a corner, blonde hair gleaming under the dim light, that infuriating Slytherin smirk plastered on his face. Hermione could hardly believe it. After all these years, she'd assumed he was gone from her life, buried in the rubble of the past. But Draco Malfoy was back-and, as always, trouble followed him like a shadow.
The Malfoys, once pillars of high society, had been crushed under the weight of scandal. Their reputation in ruins, the Daily Prophet never let them forget it. The whispers of betrayal, darkness, and questionable allegiances followed them everywhere. But now Draco, driven by a desperate need to restore his family's name, was scrambling for a chance to redeem them.
Rumours had begun circulating about the Malfoys' involvement with dark forces-perhaps even a return to the Dark Arts.
The Ministry was buzzing with the whispers, and Hermione Granger, now tasked with investigating the rise of dark magic, found herself reluctantly pulled into the heart of it all. But little did she know, this investigation would soon intertwine her fate with Draco's in ways she never could have imagined.
Hermione Granger was sorted into Slytherin as soon as she stepped foot onto Hogwarts, a magical wizarding school. And why wouldn't she be? Cunning, beautiful, and a deadly viper waiting to strike, she quickly rose to prominence among her peers. Her sharp intellect and ruthless ambition made her a force to be reckoned with, and she earned the respect and fear of students and teachers alike.
Draco Malfoy, the heir of one of the most influential wizarding families, is a cold-hearted Slytherin, through and through. But his frosty demeanor is melted when he sets his eyes on Hermione's alluring, intelligent, and unnerving beauty. His family's power, reputation, and strength alone combatted any other lustful man who wished to have her.
Harry Potter is the Boy Who Lived through Voldemort's killing curse as a failed plan at world domination. As a Gryffindor and a threat to the Dark Lord, both Hermione and Draco resent him with all their might. But as Harry Potter gets stronger and the Dark Lord gets weaker, Hermione must face the question of love versus loyalty.
