    Summary

    A Golden Girl missing.
    A Slytherin Prince trapped.
    An Order holding secrets.
    And a Dark Lord ruling.

    Warning: Dark AU (not dark main character) with deep discussions of trauma caused by physical, emotional, and sexual abuse.

    This fic starts out in the midst of the darkness, and shows the trauma, and healing journeys of each character as they fight to keep as much of themselves as possible, in a world trying to take it all.

    (The rape is not between Draco and Hermione)

    Summary

    The owl appeared late at night and left just as suddenly, he recognised the handwriting immediately and ripped open the envelope.

     

    She is yours.
    If something happens to us, I want you to hide her. Name her Hermione, for she will have my last libation before I sleep and be the messenger of dreamers.
    Moony and Mary know.

     

    Three words. Three words that forever changed the course of the war.

    Summary

    With a young son who cries more than he smiles, a house in a frontier town plagued by violence, a job that all but guarantees heartache, and a death certificate for his first wife, Sheriff Aaron Hotchner cannot imagine anyone wanting to marry him. But at the urging of his few friends and family, he places an advertisement in a national paper seeking a woman of fortitude who can love his boy and tolerate his temperament.
    Victoria Beauregard cannot imagine ever wanting to marry someone. She stopped believing in romance and happy endings years ago, too busy trying to survive on her own and outrun her past. But when an advertisement in the paper catches her eye, she cannot stop wondering what life would be like on the frontier with the widower and his son.

    Summary

    During his brief stint as a prisoner of the Order, Draco Malfoy notices that Hermione doesn't look to be doing too well. He had always assumed that, given her brilliant mind and gentle nature, those on her side would ensure she is taken care of. Evidently not. Must he really do everything himself?

    -

    OR: Dark Draco decides he'd rather like to keep the pretty Healer for himself, since it seems no one else can take proper care of her.

    A story about love and power.
