Summary
It's been a very long time since Hermione Granger had a good day. The war is over, and she should be happy. Everything is fine. Right? Things are good, aren't they? She has a husband who loves her, a stable job, and Important Work. It should be enough, but... she isn't happy.
The painful, slow process of healing leads her to make big changes in her life. She sheds some old relationships, and hopes she'll build some new ones. If only Malfoy would stop distracting her...
Notes on Canon Compliance: This fic begins in the in-universe year 2002. Hermione has started her new Ministry job in Magical Law Enforcement. Ron and Harry are Aurors. Hermione and Ron have been married for three years, and have no children. To the best of my knowledge, this set-up is canon compliant, but it will diverge from here.

Summary
“In my humble opinion there’s only three things that men should be and that is bloody, slutty, and pathetic.” And, on a good day, Draco Malfoy can be all three.
When war heroine Hermione Granger and Azkaban-tattooed war criminal Draco Malfoy are forced to wed as part of Shacklebolt’s controversial Reconciliation Act, they openly fight the match and each other—their public brawls breathlessly reported by the press.
Secretly, a deeply traumatized Draco delights in Hermione’s attention and pines for a real marriage with her—even as her forced proximity to the Black family magic irritates the cursed scar Bellatrix left on her arm, reminding her why she can never truly trust or forgive him. Then Hermione discovers that Draco’s blood will soothe the scar . . . and Draco is willing to trade his blood for her body.
(With post-war blood purity politics, black market potioneers, Pansy Parkinson’s career advice, the Malfoys blackmailing Hermione’s Wizengamot opposition, BDE Neville Longbottom hunting Death Eaters, a slutty Theo Nott serving as Draco’s right-hand man, and Crookshanks loose in Malfoy Manor.)
