    Summary

    Right in the corner where he’d planned on standing, a witch in a short black dress looked resolutely at the toes of her high-heeled shoes. Her face was mostly hidden by her frankly ridiculous forest of curls, but he could hazard a guess at her expression. Swotty, slightly condescending, oozing with insincere sympathy, a faint trace of pity in her honey brown eyes. Exactly as she had looked at him during his trial at the Wizengamot. Hermione bloody Granger.

    Four years after the Second Wizarding War, after serving his sentence in Azkaban, Draco Malfoy has become an Auror. Hermione Granger is now an Unspeakable, studying time itself. When a mysterious series of portals starts appearing, they are forced to work together. And they discover that, for enemies, they actually make a rather good team…
    Featuring our two favourite idiots in a true slow burn, Harry as the absent-minded hero of the wizarding world (who is getting tired of getting called exactly that), Ginny as the perennially meddling friend, Theo as the wise and wry companion who is always there for basically everyone (yes, even for Draco) and a special supporting role for Astoria Greengrass as a complete and utter psychobitch.

    Summary

    Twenty years after the Battle of Hogwarts, the Malfoy family's association with Voldemort has made them social outcasts. Hermione has only seen Draco a handful of times since their school days, but he looks exhausted when she notices him in the lobby of a hotel during a charity gala. Days later, she still can't seem to forget about the way he looked that night. After hearing a rumor that he or his father might be seriously ill, she starts investigating in her free time. It leads to the discovery of a problem impacting former Death Eaters, and a coverup that seems to be coming from high up in the Ministry of Magic. Slow-burn romance with shameless flirting, a side of plot, and a cherry of smut on top. HEA guaranteed.

    Summary

    ‘Well it doesn’t make any difference whether or not Malfoy wants a torrid love affair because he can’t have one on his own.’

    ‘Oh please. Are you trying to insinuate that if he rocked up to you with that face and that body, and said hey Granger let’s do something my Father will never hear about, you would walk away?!’

    ‘I am not going to have a torrid love affair with Malfoy!’

    ‘We’ll see.’ Ginny said knowingly.

    ---

    Summary

    It’s 2008 and Draco Malfoy is a secret assassin. It's legitimate - he gets paid for it, and some higher ups in the Ministry (probably?) know he’s out there… killing people. He’s quite good, but that tracks with his dubious accounting of rights and wrongs and his penchant for self-preservation. During his downtime he does a great job of acting like a pureblood in penance... mostly by drinking and shagging his way into oblivion.

    This double life helps to numb Draco to the constant feelings of shame and guilt from his formative years in which he was an utter cunt- but everything is upended when his team (assassins can have coworkers, alright?) dies in action and he does not. Suspended and forced to go to therapy, Draco is adrift.

    When Hermione Granger re-enters the fray, their hateful relationship that was once fraught with swotty bickering (erm, and the occasional slur) is suddenly tense in a very different way.

    How will these two come together? How often will Theo say something terribly charming? Do we hate Ron or is Ron just, meh? Oh, and what’s going on with that one murderous witch who’s out to kill them all (forgot to mention that part…)?

    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."
