Summary
After the Battle of Hogwarts, Hermione Granger returns to rebuild what war has shattered — the castle, her purpose, and the pieces of herself she no longer recognises.
But the world she helped save is shifting beneath her feet: laws born of fear threaten freedom, old enemies seek redemption, and unexpected bonds begin to blur the lines between duty, loyalty, and love.
Amid politics, forgiveness, and the quiet work of healing, Hermione must decide what it truly means to build a new future — and what kind of home her heart can belong to.
Some houses are rebuilt with stone. Others with trust.

Summary
“Thanks,” Harry muttered. He stopped pacing and leaned both hands on the table, breathing hard. “And it’s not even like there’s proof. Just... whispers. A sighting near a village called Ashwick Vale. A cursed manuscript in Knockturn. A dark artifact that ‘felt familiar.’ Honestly, I’d like to see anyone else step up for once.”
“Of course it’s me,” Harry muttered again, pacing the sitting room like a storm cloud in motion. “Not Kingsley. Not the whole damn Department. Me.”
**********
Years after the war, whispers begin to surface, dark magic in a quiet village, a shadow from the past that refuses to fade.
Harry Potter, now the Ministry’s top Auror, is sent to investigate. His search leads him to Ashwick Vale, where the view was breathtaking, the villagers warm-hearted, and the local headmaster more interesting than Harry expected.Marvolo Gaunt is brilliant, composed, and oddly charming. He runs a magical school tucked between the hills and seems to know Harry better than he should.
The village is peaceful and beautiful.
And the longer Harry stays, the harder it is to remember why he came in the first place. -

Summary
Hermione Granger wanted one thing: to restore her parents’ memories. With Ministry backing at last, she’s bound for Australia to try — and if it works, maybe even change the lives of Janus Thickey Ward patients. Six months in Sydney should be straightforward enough… except for the guard dog the Minister insists on assigning her.
Enter Draco Malfoy. Once a failed Death Eater, now a MACUSA Auror and expert in “cross-cultural cases” (read: wrangling Muggles and avoiding Statute disasters). He’s spent years learning how not to be a massive wanker — while still technically Lord of Malfoy Manor.
Now he’s been ordered to play bodyguard to the Golden Girl. In a cramped little Bondi Junction house. For half a year.
What could possibly go wrong?

Summary
"Tonight's the night. And it's going to happen, one final time. I've been the arbiter of so much of it myself; it's only right I take what I dish out."
Justice died with the war. What’s left is Draco Malfoy, Auror by day, executioner by night.
When the Ministry starts handing out pardons to unrepentant war criminals, Draco takes justice into his own hands with precision, poison, and no trace. He stalks his targets like a predator, harvesting memories and cleaning up every scene as if it were a ritual. Cold. Clean. Controlled.
Until he’s paired with Lead Healer Hermione Granger to investigate a string of mysterious deaths that may not be so unrelated. She's brilliant, unyielding, and far too perceptive for his liking.
As the body count rises and her suspicions deepen, Draco’s carefully compartmentalized life starts to fracture. But the deeper she digs, the more entangled they become, and soon, she’s not just close to the truth.
She is the truth.

Summary

Hermione begins waking up with strange bite marks on her neck… and the slow, terrifying sense that her magic is unraveling.
Students begin collapsing in the corridors, pale and dazed, with no memory of what happened. Even the castle feels different - off-kilter and watchful.
Determined to uncover the truth, Hermione throws herself into the mystery. But the only person who seems to notice the same things she does - the only one who might understand what’s happening - is the last person she wants to trust.
Draco Malfoy is not the boy she remembers from before the war.And something else at Hogwarts has changed, too. Something ancient. Something hungry.

Summary
One summer afternoon, Draco Malfoy finds himself in a world that isn’t his own, where there are no spells, no house-elves, or not even the name Voldemort. And strangest of all: Hermione Granger lives a completely Muggle life… and doesn’t recognize him.
In the years that follow, every summer, Draco crosses into that alternate reality without understanding how or why that happens. What begins as an irritating anomaly becomes the only place where he can be someone who’s not weighed down by the name Malfoy. Someone who, for fleeting moments, wants to stay.

Summary
Nine years after the war, Lucius Malfoy is a ghost draped in fine robes, recently released from Azkaban to the ruins of his life: an empty ancestral home, a wand that resists him, and no one left to call family. He expects only to fade into obscurity.
Until a Thursday morning brings a sight he cannot forget.
Two children. Malfoy hair. Malfoy eyes. Malfoy poise.
And with them — Hermione Granger. No longer the Golden Girl, but a celebrated scientist… and unmistakably a mother. Her return to Britain stirs old grudges, older secrets, and something far more dangerous: a pull neither of them expected. Between them lies a truth that could shatter everything Lucius thought he knew about blood, legacy, and the possibility of love.

Summary
The Wizarding World is rarely kind to one Harry James Potter. He is not surprised, then, when an old law is enacted after the latest war and gives him all bad choices from his standpoint. He would never ever plan to involve more than himself in this, though. Certainly not his godson Teddy!
But now here they are, deep in the “gutter level” of what seems like a futuristic planet, trying to survive.
And then it turns into a road trip of the ages for a very colourful found-family unit….

Voldemort and Harry Potter are dead... but the war lives on.
The Ministry struggles to maintain its power against the growing faction of Death Eaters and the Order of the Phoenix. In a public stunt of unity, they whip up a reality dating show where Draco Malfoy—the Death Eaters’ prince—is forced to marry a Muggleborn. It's the only way for him to keep Malfoy Manor and his family's legacy intact. But he never expected one contestant to be there... the forbidden witch he's always wanted. The Muggleborn who could taint his family name and destroy everything...
Hermione Granger never wanted a spotlight on her, but her family's survival demands it. She'll play the Ministry's game and pretend to simper and fawn over Malfoy, but to what end? They've loathed each other since childhood... so why is he keeping her on the show? Is the Ministry pulling the strings off camera, or does Draco have more nefarious plans for her?
When dark obsessions ignite on wizarding television, the lines between love and ruin blurs. Can enemies unite as fake lovers on camera? Or are Draco and Hermione only fooling themselves?
The Bachelor meets Harry Potter in a post-war AU where desire is dangerous... and everyone’s watching.

Summary
The others had been naive to believe their fate could be changed with anything less than genocide. But not Harry James Potter. He had long come to realise what the others couldn’t. Every single one of them. Every single one of them should be killed. They were dirty and cruel so Harry would be crueller. He would stop them before they could even form such thoughts like war. They were superior and Harry would show them just how much.

Summary
Decades after the war, Draco has moved on. Started over. His town is small, tight-knit, accepting, and they know nothing about him or his family name. It's perfect. It's home. On the good days he might even consider himself happy, fulfilled.
And then Harry Potter is across the room, and Draco wonders if he's been fooling himself.
"However wide awake they may have been before they entered that sleepy region, they are sure, in a little while, to inhale the witching influence of the air, and begin to grow imaginative—to dream dreams, and see apparitions."
