    Summary

    What if Hermione never escaped the Ministry with Harry and Ron after stealing Salazar’s locket and was thrown into Azkaban with the other Muggle-borns instead?

    She thought that one year of isolation was torture. Then, seeing Malfoy's face upgraded her sentence to a cruel and unusual punishment.

    -OR-

    The war still rages when Hermione is found in an abandoned wing: the perfect bait for the Dark Lord to tip the scales in his favour.

    Summary

    In a world ruled by Voldemort, survival is a strategy — and grief is the currency of the living.

    Hermione Granger is not dead.
    She’s something worse: a prisoner wrapped in silk, haunted by memory, and carrying a sliver of the Dark Lord’s soul twisted into her core. He can’t take it by force. She has to give it, willingly.

    Draco Malfoy is unraveling. He was meant to guard her. Not feel her.
    She was never meant to die; she was meant to become the final piece.
    But old magic binds, and now Draco Malfoy is falling for the one girl Voldemort needs alive.

    Theo Nott is chasing ancient magic before the bond devours them.
    Pansy Parkinson is done pretending to be loyal.
    Blaise Zabini watches from the shadows, too quiet, too careful, too dangerous.

    And in the far north, Harry Potter is no longer just Harry. Possessed by the thing he once tried to destroy, he's walking toward Clava Cairns, where the ritual waits, and the end begins.

    Love might save Draco and Hermione.
    But will it save Harry?

    In this world, mercy doesn’t save you.
    Mercy burns.

    Summary

    Ten years after the Battle of Hogwarts, Hermione Granger has thrown herself into rebuilding the magical world—policy reform, education initiatives, and non-stop work. She’s respected, admired… and a little lonely. When the Minister of Magic proposes an unconventional idea to modernize the image of the post-war generation—a magical dating show—Hermione agrees, seeing it as an opportunity to raise awareness for causes she cares about. Finding love? That part seems...secondary.
    What she doesn't expect is Draco Malfoy—of all people—to be one of the contestants. He signed up hoping to rehabilitate his image and prove himself to the wizarding world. What he didn't expect? That the witch he’d been secretly infatuated with would be the bachelorette.
    Now, with magical cameras rolling, challenges underway, and 19 other men vying for her heart, Draco must decide whether he's playing for redemption—or something much more dangerous: love. And Hermione? She's starting to wonder if the man she thought she knew is someone entirely different

    Summary

    When Hollywood's favorite bad boy Draco Malfoy offhandedly insults Trio—the breakout British band being hailed as The Golden Trio—he unwittingly sets off a media frenzy. Especially since their lead singer and Britain’s new darling, Hermione Granger, slaps him in response. With PR disasters looming, their agents force them into a fake relationship to salvage both their careers. But between public appearances and private moments, cameras flashing and tensions rising, keeping up the act is the easy part—figuring out where the act ends is another story.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger is thirty-seven, married, and vanishing by inches.

    In a Ministry built on glass ceilings and half-kept promises, she spends her days archiving the past and erasing herself. Her nights are quieter still—tea gone cold, birthdays forgotten, a marriage that functions only in muscle memory. But when she’s reassigned to a forgotten preservation initiative—and partnered with Draco Malfoy, of all people—the stillness begins to shift.

    Their connection starts in margin notes. Quiet corrections. A shared language of theory, silence, and gaze. He doesn’t ask questions. He listens. He sees her.

    What follows is not a romance in the way we’re told to want it. It’s slower. Stranger. A fire built beneath floorboards. A life rewritten through letters, glances, and the sacredness of choosing yourself.

    This is a story about desire without spectacle, intimacy without performance, and what it means to be seen and wanted for who you are when no one is watching.

    Summary

    Simple. That’s all Harry Potter wants after the war. In fact, he’s owed it—after enduring a lifetime of unspeakable neglect, loss, and sacrifice.

    But the best things worth fighting for never come easy. And sometimes, lessons come like a reckoning—just a breath too late.

    Simple: Ginny, join her family for good and finally hold everything he’s ever wanted—the big family, the laughter, and the warmth.

    Warmth—exactly what he gets at the bottom of an Ogden's bottle. Laughter—the lovely, haunting sound that sings him to sleep to visit better moments shared with the witch who wants nothing to do with him.

    Complicated: Kissing Hermione in the tent after sharing an aching, awkward dance. Loving her despite knowing the price is the only family he’s ever known. Thinking shagging Ginny would end such unwanted feelings—it didn’t. Chasing the ghost of a future that vanished with her.

    - - - - - - - - - - -

    Or...

    An emotional Harry + Hermione romance with a happy ending loosely inspired by A Walk to Remember and the song Better Than I Know Myself by Adam Lambert.

    Summary

    Hermione has spent the last five miserable years of the war tracking and dispatching Voldemort's new set of horcruxes that were created from deadly magical animals. As the last one standing from her team, she works tirelessly to find the final horcrux—a basilisk—alone.

    As she closes in on her target, unexplainable things start to occur in the cave system she's investigating.

    The final horcrux isn't what they thought and Hermione is left with an impossible choice: murder or give herself to the monster.

    He chuckled before retreating towards the edge of the woods.

    Summary

    Draco Malfoy had started gardening for stress relief, but looking down at his delicate failures, he seethed.

    He had never seen Number Seven out in the garden, had never crossed their path in the posh St. Mungo’s housing where they lived. He blamed the wizarding world for enabling his antisocial tendencies. With a floo inside most flats and apparition at one’s fingertips, who needed to linger in a hallway?

    Summary

    "He let his fingertips trail along the inside of her wrist and felt the way she shivered, caught the short, sharp inhale.

    “Granger?”

    Her eyes turned glassy and she smiled, withdrawing her touch from him with aching slowness, as if she wanted it more than anything, but felt like she didn’t deserve it. His heart twisted in his chest and he ground his teeth. This woman deserved the whole world, and yet no one had thought to offer her even a shred of it.

    “Granger,” he said again, voice rough."

    An intimate vignette moment between older Draco and older Hermione.

    Summary

    An extremely angsty story about how the showdown at the Ministry could have gone. Slight AU, just because the Horcruxes were discovered before/during The Order of the Pheonix.

    Hermione watched with ever-growing horror as Harry screamed. Screamed for Sirius, screamed for his pain, screamed for the injustice of being left alone again. Hot tears dripped down her face as she saw his heart breaking.
    But she, too, was in danger.
