    Summary

    What would you give to save the person you love?


    Draco Malfoy has lived a charmed life, growing up in the manor with everything he could want at his fingertips - a perfect, pampered prince.

    As a teenager, he comes to Hogwarts and looks down on everyone he meets. He is cruel, vicious - heartless.

    As an adult, he is merciless- a cold blooded killer.
    Ruthless, inhumane, feared by those around him.

    But when Draco is found dead after hanging himself from the rafters of a room in the Hog’s Head, with only a bag full of memory vials and his diaries left beside him - Hermione discovers more about Draco and who he really was.

    That all he ever wanted to do was make people proud.

    As she searches his memories, she slowly realises that he was never the person that he showed to the world.
    He suffered so much in his short life.

    Draco’s memories tell a story of true, unending love and sacrifice and as she watches, Hermione needs to decide what she is willing to do to give Draco another chance at the life he truly deserves.

    ’I promise, I will make you proud.’

    Summary

    “Glee was the last thing she felt staring into the empty eyes that should have been a bright grey. His face had always looked pointed and sharp, but now that gave way to gauntness. His hair, which he had been so particular about in school, hung long and limp. It reminded her of how his father had looked in his mugshot. How he had wanted to be just like his father growing up. And now he was, maybe more than ever.
    A ghost.”

    After doing more than her fair share in saving the Wizarding World and bearing the scars of what it cost, Hermione Granger thinks she has earned herself a little respite. But when a charismatic albeit chaotic Theodore Nott convinces her to use an old law to save a dear friend who is about to meet the Dementor’s Kiss, she simply cannot stand by and watch. Follow Hermione as she navigates a world that still believes in blood status, a marriage to save the life of an old enemy and the hurt that comes with surviving.
