Summary
"Hermione Granger is undoubtedly the most irritatingly opinionated, patronizing, overbearing, excruciatingly optimistic and self righteous human being I have ever met but there's something about her that draws you in, something golden." -D.M.
What is the plot of this fic? The plot is Draco Malfoy having a terrible fucking time and never being able to catch a break. It will begin fifth year and take you through his journey of being a death eater, the Battle of Hogwarts and post-war. It will loosely follow some canon events but timelines and dates may not be identical. The story itself is one big what if. What if Draco and Hermione started dating before he became a death eater? What if Draco had been present for certain events during the horcrux hunt? What if the war ended this way and these certain people were lost? The characters and story are in no way meant to be canon but instead, an exploration into other possible characterizations of them.
It's also wise to remember, this is entirely from Draco's point of view. Who is to say that he's a reliable narrator?

Summary
***
The war is over.
For Draco Malfoy that means a fresh start at Durmstrang: an unplottable fortress high up in the mountains, isolated from the world and a thousand miles from all he hated at Hogwarts. A place where the Dark Mark remains a badge of honor. Where Unforgivables are practiced openly. Where Mudbloods have never been admitted.
At least until Hermione goes and ruins everything.
***
Or: A Durmstrang spin on an eighth year story feat. toxic Draco, dark Hermione, and the entire gang of snakes.

Summary
Hermione’s husband wants an heir, but he can’t get her pregnant.
Draco Malfoy's blood curse has him desperate to get someone pregnant, but doesn’t want a legitimate heir.
It’s a match made in heaven, and nothing at all is going to go wrong.
Nothing.
At.
All.—————————————————————
Malfoy let his head fall back, closing his eyes as he took a deep breath from the ceiling.
“You are a woman of child-bearing age. You are looking to become pregnant. And you have told me that your husband has failed to make that happen. It is being triggered right now and it’s being triggered by you.”
His eyes flicked quickly over her body, before stopping himself.
“And from the moment you stepped foot in my house, I have been so fucking hard I can’t feel my toes.”Series
