Summary:

A SEQUAL TO LOVE IS PAIN: "If you love something, set it free; if it comes backs it's yours, if it doesn't, it never was." (Richard Bach)


Draco’s death hit Hermione like a steam engine. Since the day she found his casket delivered to her doorstep, her life has slowly been wilting. She now lives, as Harry Potters’ wife, in a life slowly turning into death. What she doesn't know is that Draco is not dead, although close to it. He wakes up to find himself locked in a dungeon with not but his father, the Cruciatus Curse and many others to keep him company. As Draco struggles to grasp onto life, so does Hermione. Can Draco find Hermione and recreate the love they used to share? Would she even forgive him if he did? And if he somehow found a way back to Hermione’s side, would he even want to be with her after finding her with “Saint Potter?” Through these pages, love’s secrets await…

Chapter 9: Validated!

“I want nothing less then to leave you here, destined for death,” she divulged in a hush. “I wish with all of my heart you could suffer the same pain I have.” Her feet concluded their progress across the room and she simply stood there, towering over his body.





“But I know you never could.”

See A/N for challenge info in chapter 9!

Summary: For the rest of the Ministry, the interdepartmental challenge was merely a failed attempt to restore trust between workers. But for Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger, it was the catalyst for an unexpected relationship built on passionate letters, concealed identities, and secret meetings – and the beginning of an end that neither of them could ever have imagined possible, not even in their wildest dreams.

Post-war. Based somewhat on the story of the Phantom of the Opera. Also contains R/Hr, so don't read if you can't stomach that ship.

Status: Complete. Thanks for reading, everyone!

Summary: The reign of Voldermort comes to an end, and with it ends the prestige and power Lucius Malfoy once had in the Wizarding World. In order to regain the respect of his fellow wizards and to make them believe that he has turned over a new leaf (which he actually hasn't) and has graciously accepted muggles and Mudbloods, Lucius asks Hermione, a Mudblood, to marry his son, Draco, a pure-blood. Obviously, they both refuse, but Lucius isn't going to give up easily. After all, he wants his status back. He still has a few tricks up his sleeve and is determined to play match-maker. What happens next is a series of events that serve only to bring Hermione and Draco closer, both literally and figuratively speaking. Read to find out how this one unseemly proposal causes absolute chaos in their lives! THIS STORY IS NOT HBP and DH COMPATIBLE! Hey all! Check out my personal info for the expected date of the next update. =)

Summary: He saw her letters and became jealous. Passion turned to obsession, then he did something horrible to her. But if she was his, would she stay for sunrise to pass over her face, just so he'd know it wasn't a dream? Rated 'R'.

The sequel, Black Rose: The Lost Chapters, is now up!
