Draco Malfoy never imagined voluntarily stepping foot in the Muggle World.
After his year sentence Draco is released under strict Ministry oversight, forcing him into work as he is placed within the Department for Muggle Relations. The last thing he expects is to find a kind of quiet peace in the mundane routines of the Muggle world - and even less, a sincere blooming friendship with a Muggle man who seemed to understand more than anyone had before.
Hermione Granger is a respected Healer at St. Mungo's and a licensed Muggle doctor, known for fixing everyone but herself. She'd never forgiven Draco Malfoy, nor forgotten the war - but when a Ministry assignment forces them to work together, their professional paths become increasingly personal.
And then there are the carnations - white ones, always left carefully on her desk. A quiet apology. A gentle question. A reminder that even things with thorns can bloom again.
As secrets surface and old wounds re-open, Draco and Hermione must navigate a world where forgiveness isn't easy, healing isn't linear, and love doesn't come with a spell.
Some flowers bloom in unexpected places. And some enemies don't stay enemies forever.
