    Summary

    Harry Potter and Hermione Granger aren’t friends. Until, suddenly, they are.

    Now she’s everywhere: in the library, at his side, in his thoughts… and somehow, in that strange, tight feeling in his chest he can’t quite name. It’s distracting, inconvenient—definitely not helpful when he’s already on the verge of failing Potions and facing the wrath of his mum.

    Good thing Hermione’s there to help him study.

    Because that’s all this is. Studying. Right?

    Summary

    Harry stared at her.

    He did not move to pull away again but he didn’t move closer to her either.

    “It will ruin our friendship, Hermione,” he said slowly, his voice gentle.

    He was giving her an out. A final warning.

    A warmth she hadn’t felt in ages settled low in her stomach.

    “Ruin it.”

     

    A marriage law enacted nearly two decades after the war, forces Harry and Hermione to confront their feelings and when tensions bubble over, they have to decide if love is worth risking everything for.

    Summary

    “I wonder,” he purred, “if I could make you cum from just the pain alone. How many slaps do you think it would take? Two? Three?”

    Fuck, she wanted to cum so bad. Hearing him acknowledge it made her realize just how close she was. She danced on the precipice of her orgasm, silently pleading for him to push her over to the other side.

    She felt a sudden pinch. It was short and vicious enough to make her hiss without the same satisfying burn as his slap.

    “Answer me, Granger,” he demanded, his breath skating across her lips.

    “No.”

    She didn’t want to let go of whatever faint glimmer of pride she had left. She couldn’t let him know just how much he affected her, not that easily.

    Malfoy chuckled darkly instead and smirked at her. He looked like a predator gearing up for the kill.

    “I also disagree,” he taunted, “I think it would take just one.”

     

    Hermione is invited to stay at Malfoy Manor for the exclusive traditional celebration of Beltane. With little information available on how purebloods celebrate the holiday, Hermione shows up without any idea of what to expect.
    She better get ready to run.
    Fast.
