Summary
Hermione Granger was one of the Wizarding World’s most accomplished Healers, specialising in rare and unexplained magical illnesses.
Draco Malfoy was a single father with a son no spell could cure. Five-year-old Scorpius had been passed from Healer to Healer and subjected to every advanced treatment available—none of which had worked.
With nowhere else to turn, Draco placed his last hope in the Brightest Witch of Her Age.
What began as a professional duty slowly became something far more intimate. As Hermione worked to heal Scorpius, a quiet, beautiful bond formed between them—one built on patience, trust, and small moments of light. And in watching his son come alive in Hermione’s presence, Draco found himself drawn into that connection as well, bound to them both in ways he hadn’t expected.

Summary
Granger corners him one last time, pulling that bloody envelope from her robes. He lets it fall into his open palm. "You know the rules, don't you?" "Only for when I'm at my lowest point," he says. "And after I open it, I go straight to you." Ten years later, and he's falling in love with her.

A friendly Quidditch match at the Burrow proves dangerously distracting when Draco is surprised to discover he can read Hermione's mind. Suddenly, the win he was seeking can’t compete with a far more tempting prize; if only he were brave enough to chase it.

Summary
After six months in Azkaban, six months living without magic, and six months probation, Draco Malfoy reveled in the quiet. For five years working in a small bookshop in the Scottish isles gave him purpose and the silence he craved. Until the bell above the door chimed, and Hermione Granger started to make noise.
And maybe he liked the sounds she made.

Summary
The Dark Lord has risen.
Harry Potter is gone.
And Hermione Granger has disappeared into the heart of Voldemort’s regime.Forced deep within the enemy’s inner circle, Hermione survives through lies, performance, and increasingly unforgivable choices. Every day inside the Manor demands another piece of herself, and the longer the war drags on, the harder it becomes to remember who she was before it.
But survival was never going to be the most dangerous part.
Not when Draco Malfoy watches her like he’s trying not to lose something that was never his to begin with.
Not when Theodore Nott loves her with the kind of quiet devotion that turns fatal in wartime.
And not when whispers begin to spread that Harry Potter may not be dead at all.
As alliances fracture and old magic begins to awaken beneath the ruins of the war, Hermione finds herself trapped between duty, grief, and two boys who would burn the world down differently for her.
Because some love stories are not meant to survive.
And by the end of it, loving her may be the thing that destroys them all.
