    Summary

    Hermione Granger was lonely- yes, she was also jaded, and a little bitter - but mainly, she was tired. Tired from the war. Tired from her efforts; at maintaining friendships, at being the smartest in the room, at trying to find someone to love her, tired of thinking and worrying about every little thing. 

    When Kingsley Shacklebolt informed her that he planned to introduce a Marriage Law with her and Draco Malfoy as the poster-couple, she hadn’t really cared. Hadn’t fought it. Hadn’t even bothered to read the contract the Malfoy family lawyers had sent over. Perhaps she should have, she realized, when she found herself in Lucius Malfoy’s bedchamber the first night of her Honeymoon.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger should have known better than to follow strange noises down a dark corridor in Malfoy Manor. After twenty years of being Harry Potter’s best friend, self-preservation really ought to have become second nature.

    Unfortunately, Hermione has always been more curious than sensible.

    Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy know this about her. In fact, they seem to know quite a few things about her. Her favorite tea. Her tendency to listen at doors. The exact way her feathers ruffle when she’s embarrassed, annoyed, or enjoying herself far more than she intends to admit.

    The chair is already waiting.

    The tea is already poured.

    And Hermione is beginning to suspect that the Malfoys have been waiting for their little songbird to wander in all along.

    Summary

    “Address. Me. Properly.”

    “Yes, Sir.

    The words left her easily—she had been yearning to say them for far too long.

    “I believe I made myself abundantly clear before I left.”

    He breathed deeply, his broad chest rising and falling slowly.

    “Which brings me to my next question,” he reached out to rub the fabric between his fingers, eyes filled with contempt. “What, pray tell, are you wearing?”

    Summary

    “Mother... if I were... In the event that one found oneself... shall we say interested in interacting with someone who was not normally included in our social circles, would that... would one find oneself quite dismissed from the family, do you suppose?”

    The first wizarding war didn't end. It just changed tactics.

    Hidden in bureaucracy, buried in laws, and baked into bloodlines, wizarding society is still divided into those who belong, and those who don't. But Hermione Granger has never backed down from a challenge, and she's never wanted anything more than to belong.

    Not every war is fought with battles and curses. Some are fought with hushed conversations, careful compromises, and a revolution that begins in a library.
