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.
