    Summary

    Torture smells like spring.

    Like daffodils and tulips and snowdrops. Like the bouquets brought inside from the manor gardens to lend their life to cold stone walls that house criminals. Easter mixed with madness makes sense in this twisted landscape; Draco’s only chance at survival is to endure it. He knows this. But that doesn’t quell the twitching in his calves, the flexing in his fingers.

    Granger lifts her hand off the floor and Draco nearly loses his lunch, stomach churning as he watches her extend her arm, reaching through the translucent cord, reaching towards him. He tries to blink it away, blink blink blink, but both she and the cord are stubborn, persistent things.

    [In which a soulmate bond appears while Hermione is tortured at Malfoy Manor. Canon divergent from that moment onward.]

    Summary

    Hermione was often the one who thought things through. Always had a strategy in mind with an end in sight, and never willingly put herself in risky situations unless otherwise necessary. But as she stood here in the boys' lavatory with Draco Malfoy's back to her, she didn't have the faintest clue on what to do.

    Summary

    You catch more flies with honey than vinegar.

    When honey flows from Hermione's lips, she doesn't fight the lunacy of how it sounds.

    "I can help."

    Hermione finds Draco crying in the bathroom and learns he's a Death Eater. She attempts to gain his trust and uncover his secret within the Room of Requirement.

    Secrets multiply like a Geminio Curse, and Hermione spends twenty-five years keeping one in particular.

    **Fully canon compliant, including epilogue and The Cursed Child.**

     

    Inspired by the speech 'Falling in Love' by Allen Watts.

    Summary

    If there’s one thing Hermione Granger is good at, it’s using magic to fix her problems. And this time, her problem is sex.

    Luckily, she has the perfect solution: a locket enchanted with the Patented Daydream Charm. Whenever she opens it, she’ll find herself in Dreamland, where she can live out all her filthiest fantasies risk-free.

    The magic is a bit tricky, though. For some reason, Malfoy keeps showing up there with her. Thank goodness it’s only an illusion—if that was really him, she would never live it down.

    Meanwhile, Draco is determined to figure out who the fuck is cursing him to suffer through highly realistic, erotic hallucinations of his secret childhood crush. When he finds the culprit, there will be hell to pay.

    Summary

    Seven years ago, Hermione Granger gave evidence to the Wizengamot that helped keep Draco Malfoy out of Azkaban. Six years ago they completed their final year at Hogwarts - and since then there has been no contact between them. Hermione would be perfectly happy to keep it that way, but when a dangerous Dark object threatens the life of one of her dearest friends she has no choice but to seek Malfoy out and beg for his help.

    What she discovers when she finds him is not at all what she expected and now she's intrigued - intrigued and determined not to let him disappear again before she's managed to uncover his secret. A secret Draco definitely does not want her finding out.

    Summary

    **COMPLETE**
    Years after the war, Hermione finds herself traveling to Romania to help Charlie track down an unknown species of Dragon that's been sighted in the mountains of the national forest.
    While Charlie is looking to capture and relocate the new species to the sanctuary for further research, Hermione's interest is to enforce the laws involving the transportation and exploitation of the creature.
    That is, until she comes in contact with the Dragon when no one else has been able to approach it. She finds that there is an almost human intellect to it and it exhibits something akin to emotions.
    She soon discovers that the new species is not as it appears and is indeed her past nemesis, Draco Malfoy.
    He has been cursed to live out his days as a beast and his nights as a man, forever alone with only his memories to haunt him as he struggles to survive alone in the wilderness.

    *Rest assured, the Infidelity tag refers to Ron being a scumbag and not Hermione/Draco*
    *Also…Charlie looks like Jamie from Outlander. Have fun with that.*

    Summary

    ‘Where’s my wand?’ he mutters into his knees.

    Jameson glances at one of the Aurors who edges his way closer.

    ‘The Ministry seized it when you—’

    ‘I want my wand,’ he says, and he sounds…tiny. Like a little boy.

    ‘Look lad, once you’re in the shelter, you can see about getting your wand back,’ the Auror closest to his side says, the badge at his hip glinting.

    ‘I can’t go there,’ Malfoy says into his knees. ‘Please. Please don’t make me go there.’ I realise he’s crying. That he’s hiding his face to stop them from seeing. That this is the first time I’ve ever heard him say the word please. That he’s scared. That Draco Malfoy is asking for help.

    Something shatters inside me and—

    ‘He can stay with me.’

    Summary

    Hermione Granger is 27 years old when her life falls apart. Cheated-on, flatless, fed up with her job, she decides to change one thing she can--take a class and try for some career advancement. But change is never easy, especially when an old enemy is the catalyst.

    And the class instructor.

    "Just as the minute hand clicked over to the hour, the doorknob twisted and a figure slipped into the room. He was tall, a bit windblown. Hermione had a general impression of crisp cuffs and polished leather, and then a more specific one of the most beautiful grey coat—highlighting his shoulders and eyes, skimming to just the right place on his knife creased trousers.
    His movements were precise and confident.
    He was wearing the softest-looking gloves.

    He was not Professor Belinda Rowle.
    He was Draco bloody Malfoy."

    Summary

    Reddit's 2023 Top Dramione Fics: Seventh place for Enemies to Lovers

    "Choices are the hinges of destiny." - Edwin Markham

    Hermione didn't choose to be a witch and Draco didn't choose to be given a suicide mission. But in a world where they lacked agency, what if they chose one another?

    A sliding-doors like reimagining of 6th year through the end of the war.

    ----

    "You left her!" Draco roared, following Weasley to where he fell. "She begged you to stay, and you left her!"

    "You don’t know what it was like,” Weasley said, almost too soft to hear.

    A crazed, humorless laugh tore from Draco's lips. "I don't care what it was like. You were supposed to stay with her!"

    "I just kept having these dark and terrible thoughts…."

    "I'm not your fucking mind-healer, Weasley," Draco growled, marching towards him again. "She begged you, you fucking coward."

    “I know,” Weasley finally said.

    “You don’t deserve her,” Draco hissed and leveled his wand. "Obliviate".

    Summary

    “Pansy, I’m still not seeing what this has to do with me. You all clearly know more about the curse than I do. So what could I…”

    “Granger...” Pansy interrupted. “We need you because aside from Astoria, who is worsening with time…”

    Pansy had to take a breath and steel herself at the words before she could continue. Astoria gave Pansy a brief nod and squeeze of the hand.

    “You’re the only person who has ever survived it.”

     

    *****

    Or: Astoria's been cursed. Hermione may be the only person who can cure her.

    Summary

    He’d tucked too much of himself inside that little gift. Long muffled secrets, wishfulness, and a final concession made before laying it all to rest. That present had been meant to bring him peace. He’d known it was selfish, and he’d hoped she wouldn’t think much of it, wouldn't go looking too closely.

    But if there’s one thing he’s learned about Hermione Granger in the last five years, it’s that she digs in. With teeth, if necessary. He should have known.

    Summary

    The sprawling mountains of the Romanian Dragon Sanctuary offered a perfect chance for renewed self-discovery. Lush landscapes. Majestic beasts. It was intended to be Hermione’s escape. Except, she hadn’t been alone in that plan.

    Four years had passed since she last saw him, and to her knowledge, no one else in Britain had either. Rumours had sprouted like plants under a Herbivicus Charm after he failed to return for the second half of their final year at Hogwarts. Even Hermione hadn’t been able to resist the question in nearly every student’s mind: Where had Draco Malfoy gone?

    Apparently, she now had the answer.

    The war is over.

    Somehow, everyone's favorite sappy scar-headed superhero and his pack of sycophants won. They are celebrating their victory. Meanwhile, I am forced to walk their brimstone-paved path of polite intentions. The toll is higher than I could have ever imagined. Now, as I struggle to find my purpose in a world that has none for me, I am alone.

    Almost.
