Summary
In the wake of her exodus from Wizarding London, leaving in order to claw her way back from the dark clutches of her grief, Hermione begins to find herself in Nowhere.
Working alongside a Druid and his duckling familiars, an eccentric landlady who loves a good brandy, she’d built a life surrounded by the gentle breeze through the enchanted leaves of the North Forest.
And then she received her first raven, carrying a letter all the way from Azkaban.
Follow Hermione as she battles the Ministry as it oversteps, the Forest as it’s magic twists and changes shape, and her own feelings when she comes far to face with Draco Malfoy and their separate but shared trauma.

Summary
Becoming best friends with Pansy Parkinson was not something Hermione saw coming.
Her carefully ordered life is turned upside down when Pansy discovers just how tragically single she is and appoints herself Hermione’s matchmaker in chief. There’s just one problem: Pansy is hell bent on setting her up with Draco Malfoy.
Clearly, Pansy has lost the plot if she ever thinks that could work.
But then she runs into Draco again and realises he’s nothing like she remembers. He’s charming, kind and annoyingly attractive.
Could Pansy actually be onto something here? Or will this be a total disaster?
“How is me being perpetually single wonderful?”
“Because,” said Pansy slowly, as if she was explaining something to a toddler. “It means I get to fix this for you.”
“No! Absolutely not. I forbid it. I can’t have you meddling about in my love life… it’s too embarrassing.”
Pansy laughed so hard she nearly spilled her drink all over the table. “You forbid it? Oh I’d like to see you try, darling.”

“Hermione, I don’t think Malfoy has been teasing or insulting you. I think…” Ginny rolled her tongue in her mouth, struggling to speak the next words: “I think he was trying to court you.”
“What? No!"
-
Hermione is determined to smile through Malfoy’s blatant taunting without biting his head off.
Draco is delighted that Hermione responds well to his courtship instead of biting his head off.

Summary
Draco Malfoy has never been redeemed. He’s simply been patient.
Hermione Granger ruined his chances of being the top of their class, outshone him at every turn, and then—like the perfect, insufferable angel she was—saved his family from Azkaban. She was a Mudblood, and she was better than him. That contradiction marked him forever.
For the past seven years, he has played the long game. He became respectable in her eyes, carved out a role for himself at the DMLE, and slowly, carefully, made himself indispensable. He became her confidant, her best friend. He cultivated every part of their friendship—curated what she needed, what she liked, what she deserved.
Because Hermione is exceptional. She’s brilliant, sharp, devastatingly capable. And no one around her—not her fiancé, not her friends—ever made her feel like she was more than a burden to forgive or a standard to resent.
Draco doesn’t just see her. He feeds the pride she’s always been told to swallow. And he’ll do whatever it takes to bring her into the world where she belongs—his world.
Because she deserves better.
And she deserves him.

Summary
“Down from the peaks of Olympus he strode, angered at heart, bearing on his shoulders his bow and covered quiver. The arrows rattled on the shoulders of the angry god as he moved, and his coming was like the night. Then he sat down apart from the ships and let fly an arrow: terrible was the twang of the silver bow. The mules he assailed first and the swift dogs, but then on the men themselves he let fly his stinging shafts, and struck; and constantly the pyres of the dead burned thick.”
When Apollo's plague sweeps through the Achaean ranks, physicians Machaon and Podalirius are thrust into a different kind of war.
