    Summary

    In a world without Tom Riddle or Death Eaters, the wizarding class divide and prejudice still thrive. With no troll in the dungeon to solidify their friendship, Hermione Granger never forms a bond with Harry Potter or Ron Weasley. Resented and ostracised at Hogwarts for her unapologetic intellect and self-righteous superiority, Hermione spends most of her school years isolated and alone. Meanwhile, Draco Malfoy moves through the school with passiveness despite his popularity, secretly burdened by the weight of his family name and a deep discontent he cannot name. When detention entangles them together, they become drawn into the same orbit and the certainty of their separate lives begins to fray. Constantly losing and finding each other in an ambiguous path, they both navigate a gravity they cannot resist.

    If you’re looking for fluffy romance, this isn’t for you. This is a nuanced exploration of two flawed characters finding their way through a complicated connection. It’s a macroscopic observation of unresolved conflicts, shifting dynamics, and the grey areas of human relationships. At times, it will hurt. And it will frustrate. But above all, it will lay bare the messy, unvarnished truth of the human experience.
