Summary
"Now," the boy (Colin, Colin, Colin) says, as he eases himself to his feet languorously, so he looms and teeters upon the wall. Penelope's breath catches in her throat — she stares up at him in frozen terror as he reaches a long arm out to snatch the top of the cherry tree, his body bowing elegantly into the nothingness of open air. One wrong move and he will tumble, she is sure of it. "Penelope with the Greek name and lovely face and hair like fire," (Penelope wonders if she might die from blushing), "if I throw you down some of the sweetest cherries from the top of the tree," (he begins to pluck and twist the green stems, the branches shaking precariously), "the ones the sun has kissed to perfect ripeness, the kind of cherries you have never tasted before in your life," (he pops one in his mouth and gives the rest of his speech pouted around it), "even as the daughter of a duke who always tastes the very best of everything — well, do you think you might favour me with a smile?"
Oh, she thinks (for even at fourteen she is decisive; knows her mind well). I am in love.
On the day she finds out she is to be married, Penelope falls in love

Summary
For years, Draco Malfoy told himself that being in Hermione Granger’s orbit was more than enough. Because former Death Eaters who fled to France don’t get to date war heroines, and Betas don’t get to be with Omegas.
But when the annual Department of Mysteries conference coincides with Hermione’s early heat and Draco’s unexpected designation change, two very stubborn people discover that “enough” was never actually enough at all.

Summary
In a world in which Voldemort never existed, pureblood supremacy reigns supreme. And in this stratified and wretched world, two children meet within the hallowed halls of a great, ancient magical school. It is within these halls that futures are made; particularly that of a Muggle-born girl and a pureblood scion.
Within these halls, and within these two, the hierarchies of their blood-supremacist world are laid bare.
This is a tale of a boy and a girl.
A tale of figs and of wasps.
But most of all, it is a story about how love doesn’t save anybody.Inspired by “Lay Waste the Sky” by FreyaFallen

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.
