In the shadow of war, Hogwarts is no longer the sanctuary it once was. The lines between light and darkness are growing sharper, and Draco Malfoy stands on the wrong side. Tasked with an impossible mission by Lord Voldemort himself, Draco's cold resolve begins to falter as the weight of being a Death Eater threatens to crush him.
Meanwhile, Hermione Granger is fighting her own battles-facing the growing tension in the wizarding world as a Muggle-born, while grappling with the increasing danger surrounding her. Draco has always been the face of everything she despises: cruelty, bigotry, and hatred. But as their paths cross in unexpected ways, Hermione finds that even enemies have their breaking points-and maybe, just maybe, there's more to Draco than his sharp tongue and bitter sneer.
In a world where trust is a luxury, and hatred runs deep, can two people who are supposed to be enemies find solace in each other? Or will their opposing worlds tear them apart before they even begin to understand the dangerous pull between them?
Secrets, betrayals, and impossible choices await as Draco and Hermione are forced to question everything they've ever known. Is it hate that binds them... or something far more dangerous?

Scarred but still yours
It's easy to think that the greatest battles are fought on the front lines, in dark alleys or behind closed doors. But for Hermione Granger, the most painful war was one she fought in the silence, on her own. Her marriage to Ron Weasley, once a symbol of hope belonging, had deteriorated into something unrecognisable. Behind the warmth of the Burrow, there were shadows-violent, destructive, and suffocating. But some battles, she would learn, were beyond her ability to win alone. When the chance to escape came, she took it. With nothing but her courage and a few belongings, she fled the life that had once promised so much, seeking solace in the place where her heart had always found peace: Hogwarts. But even within the walls of her beloved school, the scars of her past could not be erased. Not until she found herself working alongside an unexpected ally-Draco Malfoy. The boy who had once stood as her enemy, the one who had tormented her and her friends, now offered her a different kind of support. As time passed, the distance between them began to close, their shared history no longer a wall, but a foundation. They find something in each other they never expected to find again-safety, understanding, and love. But just as they begin to rebuild what had been lost, a shadow from Hermione's past returns to haunt her. Ron, desperate and enraged, comes to Hogwarts-his anger consuming him. He attacks Hermione with the same violence she had escaped from, and in that moment, Draco becomes her protector. This is their story-one of rediscovery, of healing, and of love rekindled against all odds. Together, they will rise from the ashes of their broken pasts and embrace the future both of them have always craved. ****Please note, this fic includes graphic descriptions of traumatic events including all aspects of physical abuse****Complete
