Hermione Granger survived the war.
But two years later, peace feels like a lie.
When Ron is murdered and she's left battered, alone, cursed, and forgotten by the world that once needed her. Hermione vanishes, grief stricken, guilt ridden, and certain she doesn't deserve to be saved.
She finds refuge in a small tea shop, and for a moment, she learns how to breathe again. But healing isn't linear, and neither is the path that leads her to Malfoy Manor. To a house that once broke her, and to the one person who might just hate her enough to understand.

Nowhere To Belong

He has no friends, no has talked to him in over a year, until now. Hermione Granger has been studying curse breaking and has become the upcoming most successful healer in London. ---------- "I see you looking at my body Granger, enjoying yourself?" Draco wrote on the paper. Hermione shook her head. "I just never knew you to like working out," she responded. "I'm deaf and mute, so I feel weak.

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
