    Summary

    Language is like tea leaves. Steeped and coloured, flavoured bursts on the tongue: bitter or sweet. Greens, ambers, and fusion blends similar to the building of cultures. Language, the largest and most versatile way humans communicated. A unique ability to cross sounds and form words, creating energy and shifting the surrounding air into waves that spread like currents, linking one person with another. Bonding that becomes the core of identity, of stature, of expression.

    And somehow, that expression is so often lost. Hidden away in storage closets and underneath cracked floorboards. In the space between two people, a lie instead of a truth. Buried, packed away, sold, words are often used to leverage machinations. Out of cruelty, currency, or concern.

    In the time and space between two people trapped for one evening in a love hotel.

    Or: Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy are stuck in a love hotel for an evening.

    Summary

    After years spent developing a revolutionary time machine that could finally address the shadows that have haunted her since the war, Hermione Granger’s life’s work is mysteriously cursed when she is gone for the day. When Hermione can’t undo the damage herself, the Ministry calls in a Cursebreaker.

    A Cursebreaker who prefers the title Consultant.
    A familiarly annoying, infuriatingly gorgeous Consultant.

    And just when Hermione thinks that things can't possibly get worse, she soon discovers what Ron has been hiding. Suddenly, fixing her life’s work is no longer her biggest problem.

    Together, Hermione and Draco embark on an epic adventure spanning centuries and continents. From a haunted château in 1845 France to a villa in Italy, beach bars in Australia, a snow-covered cottage in Oxford and a lost library in an ancient city.

    But, if they hate each other so much, why can’t they keep their hands off one another?
    And will travelling back in time fix what’s broken? Or make everything infinitely worse?

    Hermione Granger presents: A Cautionary Tale in Travelling Through Time (and why it should only ever be done with Draco Malfoy).

    Summary

    “Oh, hello, you,” Hermione said softly. It was a little frog, no bigger than the hollow of the palm of her hand. Gently, she scooped it up in her hand and smiled. It really was very cute.

    Then it opened its mouth and said: “What the fuck, Granger?”

    That was when she screamed and threw the frog straight back into the plants.

    In which Draco Malfoy is accidentally—and possibly irreversibly—turned into a frog, and he relentlessly antagonizes charms Hermione Granger as she attempts to help him.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger’s job is very simple. Everyone wants a piece of her, and she gives everyone what they want: a win for the party, a pet project nudged through committee, a favour traded in light tones. An autograph. A quote. A smile for the camera. A name to curse at the dinner table. Her energy, her time, her heart.

    The only one who doesn’t want something from her is Draco. He just wants her.

    ~~~

    His face hovers above her, his cheeks dimpling. Then his familiar weight is pressing down on her. 

    A blurry question threads through the far reaches of her mind. Is it really you?

    She makes a fuzzy noise.

    He hushes her, pulling off the bedsheets, pushing up her slip. His brows crease at the position of her hand, covering her entrance. Wordlessly, he presses his nose to her fingers and draws a breath, groaning at what he smells there. 

    “Oh, darling,” he exhales. “Did you fuck yourself to sleep?”

    Summary

    “Draco—” She scoffs, certainly trying to chastise him. “We’re supposed to be out in the ballroom— anyone could walk back here!”

    “Can’t a man ravish his wife for just a moment? Just a little fun, and then I’ll return you to the masses.” It wasn’t technically a lie, although he doubted she would want to return after this.

    From the way she wiggled against him currently, her bum pressing back into his growing erection, he would guess she wouldn’t last five minutes.

    “You’re cruel.” She accuses, her hands reaching back around to grip into the fabric of his robes for support.

    “You know I don’t like to play fair, darling,” He says, teeth nipping along the column of her throat. “I didn’t want you coming here at all tonight, and I especially warned you against those shoes. You can’t blame me for doing what I can to get you out of them.”

    -

    While at the Christmas Eve Gala his parents throw every year, the only thing Draco has on his mind is getting his pregnant wife home for the night. And he's not afraid to play a little dirty to get his way.
