Summary
In the tense atmosphere of Hogwarts during Hermione’s sixth year, the Ministry passes a controversial Marriage Preservation Act designed to secure political alliances and maintain control as Voldemort’s influence grows. To both their horror, Hermione Granger and the newly appointed Defence Against the Dark Arts professor, Severus Snape, are declared a magically sanctioned match.
Forced into an engagement neither wants, Hermione finds herself navigating the sharp edges of Snape’s bitterness, secrecy, and dangerous position at Voldemort’s side. Snape, meanwhile, views the arrangement as yet another chain placed upon him by a world that only ever demands sacrifice.

Summary
the shadow of war, nothing remains simple—not loyalty, not survival… and certainly not the heart.
During her sixth year at Hogwarts, Hermione Granger is already fighting battles far beyond the classroom. But everything changes the night she finds Professor Severus Snape wounded on the castle grounds, returning from a Death Eater meeting that nearly cost him his life. Forced into silence and secrecy, Hermione becomes the only one who knows the truth of what he endures—and the only one willing to help him survive it.
What begins as necessity quickly becomes something far more dangerous.
As the war with Voldemort tightens its grip, stolen moments in hidden rooms turn into fragile trust, and sharp words give way to something unspoken—but undeniable. With every secret shared, Hermione is drawn deeper into a world of shadows, where allegiances blur and every choice carries a cost.
But loving a man who walks between two sides of a war may be the most perilous risk of all.
Because in the end, trust can be as deadly as betrayal—and some lines, once crossed, can never be undone.Bookmarked by WeAreWorthy

Summary
October 1998. The war is over, but its wounds are not.
When Severus Snape follows an impulse he cannot quite name into the overgrown back garden of Grimmauld Place, he finds Hermione Granger; alone, scarred, and barely holding together. What begins as a cigarette shared in the dark becomes something neither of them planned for: a marriage of convenience, a shared set of rooms at Hogwarts, and the slow, careful work of two people learning to trust again.
Hermione is hiding an enormous secret. Severus is further along in his healing than he expected, and not as far as he thought. Hogwarts has opinions about both of them. And Fenrir Greyback has not forgotten what Bellatrix promised him.
A slow burn built on consent, therapy, breathing exercises, chocolate biscuits at 3am, and the radical act of asking before you touch someone.
Updates will be posted every Sunday / Monday. I own nothing. Not the rights to the Harry Potter universe, not to the Cure songs, not to the Killers lyrics. I'm just playing with the world these artists created.
