Summary
The war ended. Hermione Granger’s did not...and the world moved on anyway.
Years later, Hermione is living at Espoir—a rehabilitation center built from the remains of Malfoy Manor, home to witches and wizards the system has deemed broken. She is one of them. Alive, altered, and surviving something the world never learned how to name. With her found family, she has found a sanctuary away from the prying eyes of the wizarding world.
She does not expect Draco Malfoy to become her anchor.
When the fragile magic keeping Hermione alive begins to fail, Draco offers the only thing powerful enough to save her: his name, his magic, and a marriage born of necessity. What follows is not rescue, but reclamation. Of choice, of voice, of self.
As the past resurfaces and Espoir is dragged into the public eye, Hermione is forced to confront a world still more comfortable protecting its heroes than believing its victims. The fight that follows is not clean, not simple, and not quiet—but Hermione Granger has never needed permission to endure.
Broken does not mean destroyed.
And survival, when chosen, can be a form of rebellion.

Summary
Hermione Granger learned Legilimency to save Harry Potter. She never meant to hear Draco Malfoy at all.
But one day she found herself in the mind of the boy who spent five years calling her a slur, not a plot, or a plan, but something that felt like worship.
It was a boy who had loved her since a train ride at eleven years old, and who was walking, alone, toward something that was going to kill him.
She told herself it was principle. She told herself it was pity. She told herself, for years, that it wasn't anything at all, except that it was.
So she listened. She lied to her best friends. She robbed the minds of Death Eaters in the dark. She built a defense for a boy who did not know he needed one, out of stolen memories and hundreds of years of pureblood law.
And when the war ended she walked into a Ministry holding cell and offered Lucius Malfoy a life debt and let him believe he had outplayed her.
He believed it for five years.
This is the story of everything it took to get there.
And everything that came after.

Summary
After the Battle of Hogwarts, the wizarding world craved nothing more than to move on from the horrors of war. However, the universe had darker plans: a plague was coming. A new strain of vampirism spread like wildfire, forcing society into a desperate lockdown.
Three years after the first infection was recorded, Hermione tries to rebuild a sense of normalcy. But her life is upended when Draco Malfoy is caught attempting to flee the country while under house arrest. To avoid a return to Azkaban, he strikes a desperate bargain with the Ministry.
Hermione Granger—now the wizarding world's leading Dark Artifact specialist—is dispatched to Malfoy Manor to catalog its dangerous contents. She expected to face cursed relics and a bitter rival; she did not expect her new housemate to be hiding a dark secret more dangerous than any object in the manor.- Language:
