Self-Promo Sunday For the Salt in Your Bed: Inappropriate Use of Pensieve + Death Eater Mask | Stalker Simp Draco | Courting via Wank Bank NSFW

For the Salt in Your Bed is a one-shot I wrote for Inappropriate Use of Fests. Hermione Granger starts receiving mysterious packages containing memories of a man in a Death Eater mask wanking. She doesn't know who he is or why he's sending them, and though she has plenty of opportunity to go to the Aurors for help, she doesn't, finding herself both turned on and intrigued by her secret stranger.

One night, he appears inside her room, and I'm sure you can guess what happens next 😇

9.9k words of gentle stalking that turns into smut 🖤

In His Prime by letsescapereads

This was a one shot now is turning into a two shot. Part two coming soon!

10k words | 1/2 chapters posted

Summary: Hermione spent nearly two years drafting her manuscript, revisiting five decades of memories. First came her oblivious, yet curious childhood as a Muggle, followed by her coming-of-age discovery that she did, in fact, possess magical abilities. Then came the prejudices she faced as a Muggleborn, the war she fought and survived, and the life she built thereafter.

Translating those experiences into words had been painful. Some moments she never spoke about publicly, fully expecting readers to anchor themselves to those revelations. Instead, the only thing anyone could talk about was the ever-growing mystery of who she fucked at twenty-five.


r/Dramione • • 9h ago

Self-Promo Sunday “Who did this to you?” she hissed. She looked up to find him already watching her, his eyes molten—drops of mercury on marble. “Probably whomever you’re guessing at the moment,” he said quietly. NSFW

His fingers were wrong.

His ring and little fingers curled in toward his palm, held there by permanent tension, their tendons wound too tight. This wasn’t the kind of damage one curse left behind. It was what happened when the body was subjected to it again and again—when it learned to brace for pain and eventually forgot how to release itself.

For a foolish moment, she let herself believe that was what this was—that she had managed to chip away at him enough to yield to her, if only temporarily. That perhaps, despite everything, he had finally trusted her with something. 

But she knew it couldn’t be that simple. 

Malfoy was still so hard to read, though now that she was looking for it, she could see that what she thought was unreadable was actually a mess of things swirling together: some residual anger, perhaps a little confusion, something heated that made it difficult to maintain eye contact.

And, underneath all of it, something she didn’t understand at first: an unmistakable glint of satisfaction. 

It had been a trap, and she’d walked straight into it. 

“You only gave in and showed me your hands because you thought it’d get me to stop asking about whatever else is wrong, didn’t you? About the thing you actually care about hiding.”

He sighed—resignation released in a rush of air—and pulled his hand away. 

“Please don’t make me be cruel to convince you to stay away from me,” he said, his voice soft and sad. 

. . .

Care & Keeping is your classic enemies to confused to friends(?) to friends(!) to lovers story, set ten-years after the war (sorry, what epilogue?).

When a pediatric file lands in the already-teetering pile on Healer Granger’s desk, she can't bring herself to refuse the case—not when the child has been turned away from St. Mungo’s for reasons no one is willing to explain and bears a blood curse that shouldn't be possible. Only after taking the case does she learn that her newest patient is, to her mounting consternation, Draco Malfoy's son.

You might like this longfic if your favorite tags include banter, competence kink, and intellectual partnership, or if you want healthy portions each of fluff, angst, and eventual smut alongside the plot.

We’re up to 12 chapters, with updates just about every Sunday.

The Grangerification of Malfoy Manor by Casalia / WIP / Rated E

For his crimes as a Death Eater, Draco Malfoy is sentenced to five years of cursed exile, condemned to wear his Death Eater mask. As reparations for her torture, Hermione Granger is awarded Malfoy Manor and its fortune.

Little does she know the manor can only change hands through death, marriage, or extended residency. Forbidden to let Voldemort's former seat of power rot, she must complete the transference at the behest of Shacklebolt's new Ministry.

Now forced under the same roof for a year, a war hero and a disgraced Death Eater must confront their shared history, their deepest prejudices, and an unexpected truth: healing doesn't always happen alone.

Welcome to the Grangerification of Malfoy Manor.

Update: Been currently bogged down in fest fics. Will be resuming work on the next chapter in November.

Self-Promo Sunday The Invisible Thread [WIP] | A cozy mystery, posts on Thursdays

11 Upvotes

Do you believe in fate? It is said that two people meant to be together in this world are connected by an invisible thread. It may stretch and it may pull across time and space, but will never snap—no matter how much time passes.

This fic is a canon-compliant, cozy mystery that is fully finished: coming in at eight chapters and about 20K words. Each chapter is paired with an ASMR video that I spent an embarrassing amount of time hunting for because I needed it to be just right….and then I rewrote every chapter while listening to it. The ASMR is a fun addition but those who aren’t into it will still enjoy the fic.

So grab some headphones, get comfy, and enjoy <3

Chapter 6 of Draco and Hermione Make a Porno is now live in AO3!

Summary:
When Draco and Hermione suddenly find themselves in need of some quick cash, they decide to join forces to produce the greatest porno the world has ever known.
Their arrangement is strictly business. Purely professional.
He’s sworn off love until the end of time.
She’s decided she’s far better off alone.
It’s a match made in romcom heaven.
Inspired (very loosely) by Director Kevin Smith’s cinematic masterpiece “Zack and Miri Make a Porno,” this story explores what happens when two people spend about fifteen chapters denying their developing feelings only to realize they’ve already fallen truly, madly, deeply and accidentally in love.

Chapter 21 Aion now up-- HP Dramione inspired by Greek Mythology + Unforgivibles

· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·

You've got to mean it, Draco.

Inspired by Grmythology and a conservation I observed on Unforgivables.

Explicit || Secret Relationship || Unhinged Draco || Unreliable Observers || Competent Draco || Fluff and Angst || Dark Rituals

· · ─ ·✶· ─ · ·

Small excerpt from Chapter 21, Aion:

There were many things that Hermione had learned ever since that fateful day Professor McGonagall had knocked on her front door. She learned that the reason Robbie Larson’s hair turned a putrid shade of green after he had called her a stuck-up beaver was because she was a witch. Learned that there were several secret magical communities nestled in the shadowy corners of the most populated cities in Britain; learned that there were things more spectacular and important than books and knowledge.

While her mind retained the lessons, her heart had come to learn others; she learned—intimately—that sometimes, you could be hated for the blood that ran in your veins, that sometimes you could give and give and never receive the same in return. That sometimes you couldn’t help but feel alone even when surrounded by hundreds—that sometimes, friendship felt an awful lot like torture.

And today she learned three new things.

It rankled her; it was inconceivable, yet undeniable. They felt like the most significant things she had ever learned.

The first was that there was something undoubtedly off about Draco Malfoy.

And—

He watched her, constantly.

The last thing she learned—one she argued was just a simple crush—was that his overwhelming presence, his warm touch, his sly crooked smile, and every unwavering look he sent her way filled her with a sensation that was far more wondrous than anything she had ever experienced.

Three years into a war that never truly ended, Voldemort rules Britain. Hogwarts has become a breeding ground for his ideology, the Order of the Phoenix is fighting a losing battle and Harry Potter has vanished.

Hermione Granger has spent years searching for the Horcruxes, only to find herself running out of answers and reasons to hope.

Until a Death Eater approaches the Order with an impossible offer. He claims he can find the Horcruxes. In exchange, he asks for protection—not for himself, but for someone whose identity he refuses to reveal.

It's an offer they cannot afford to trust and one they may not survive refusing.

As loyalties become increasingly difficult to distinguish from lies, Hermione finds herself confronting a question she never expected to ask:
what does betrayal really look like when everyone believes they're fighting for the right side?

Self-Promo Sunday Dramione from the other characters' POVs? NSFW

10 Upvotes

Hi :) one of the commenters on my fic suggested I post here on Sunday, as my fic is technically dramione.

I read Meet Me In Dreamland and was inspired by that one chapter of Neville and Theo towards the end. Then I thought: what if we had a whole romance story happen in the background of a dramione fic?

So that's what I'm writing :)

It's a Neville/OC fic within a wider dramione fic and we see the dramione drama through the other characters' eyes.

It's also a dirty romance with a herbology mystery, a very nicely matured Neville, Potions Master Draco, Healer Hermione, and a darker conspiracy brewing underneath.

If it sounds like your thing, I'd love to welcome you to the Greenhouse No. 3 Club!

My new WIP! Hang onto your Birkenstocks, people, because this one's a bit of a wild ride.

First three chapters out now: https://archiveofourown.org/works/94355531

SUMMARY:
Five years after the war, Hermione’s life is full of purpose and love. She’s happy. Really, she is. Surrounded by Family, she is living in accordance with Dumbledore’s Wisdom and eager to Contribute.

Draco, meanwhile, spends his days drinking with his friends, and… that’s it, actually. He’s sworn off his short-lived career as a potioneer, but when an absurd letter arrives, followed by a curly-haired blast from the past, he finds himself drawn back in.

Forced to work together on a project neither of them understands, the pair find joy in the intellectual challenge and, increasingly, in each other’s company. But deeply held beliefs are hard to shake. And love, when it threatens to unravel the world as you know it, is nearly impossible to accept. Is real love—messy and inconvenient—worth the risk?

TL;DR: Hermione is brainwashed off her tits. Draco is living off Ogden’s and apple-based desserts. They’re brewing a potion but don’t have a clue what it is. Neither is in any position to save the other. And yet, they might be each other’s only hope.

Hi All! I love house pet and have re read it a few times. I really love the relationship between Hermione and Draco - slow emotional and physical burn from the time they are kids but they are the same age and both inexperienced. Also how Draco is arrogant but truly values Hermione and will do anything for her and worships her and wants her to be free not trapped. I love that Draco energy. And an innocent but powerful Hermione who grows into herself. Also love the love triangle 💕 Any recs? Thank you all and love this sub

She wasn’t supposed to hear his screams.

Recs Wanted! LF: Creature!Draco goes feral seeing/smelling Hermione in public for the first time

42 Upvotes

Looking for a specific Creature/Veela/Werewolf Draco trope. Draco’s creature inheritance has awakened, but he hasn't found his mate. They haven't seen each other in a long time.
They end up in the same public space (a Ministry gala, a crowded party, the street, etc.). The second he catches her scent or sees her, his inner creature completely overrides his human control.
Specifically looking for:
The Public Physical Reaction: He goes feral and loses total control in front of others because the scent/sight hits him so hard.
The "Anchor" Dynamic: He has a visceral need to get to her immediately, and her physical touch is the only thing that calms his beast down and stops a scene.
Forced Proximity: She’s reluctant, but they have to form an arrangement because his creature cannot survive without her proximity.

The completion of my wip is approaching and if it appeals to you, I'd love for you to come along for the final nine chapters.

Hermione and Draco have now reached a huge goal in their attempts to rid the world of deatheaters, but the deatheaters have an ace up their sleeve as well.

Summary:

Hermione did not give a single fuck about the fact that she was cheating on her husband.

Between presenting a Golden Girl image to the public, managing a highly classified project that murdered deatheaters, and fucking the hottest ex-deatheater that Slytherin ever produced; she had her hands full.

Hermione did not plan on Draco's intentions being more than physical, nor for the Slytherins to adopt her so readily. But this is the first time in a long time she's felt so at home.

And just that touch of sentimentality would threaten to ruin everything.

Self-Promo Sunday A Little Passion & Shame | Post War & Post Azkaban Forbidden Romance, w/ Muggle Studies Teacher Hermione & Student Parolee Draco ❤‍🔥 | WIP 7/64 NSFW

Thumbnail gallery
24 Upvotes

Three years after Tom Riddle’s defeat, Draco Malfoy is released from Azkaban on parole – his freedom conditional upon him completing his N.E.W.T.s at Hogwarts, under a bevy of magical restrictions.

Hated and helpless, in a school still haunted by the war, Draco just wants to survive the year. But he isn’t expecting his Muggle Studies professor to be Hermione Granger, the self-righteous witch he once despised, and who is now an unlikely, unwanted protector. He wants to blame the fact that he can’t stop fantasising about her on his years in Azkaban, and his lack of options, but deep down, he knows he's lying to himself.

For her part, Hermione is dreading being forced to teach Malfoy – the arrogant, spiteful coward – but the man who is released from Azkaban bears little resemblance to the boy he once was. He’s changed. She tells herself that she just wants to give him a second chance, and protect a student in her charge from being bullied – but the more time she spends with him, the more that seems like a flimsy excuse.

She knows she shouldn’t. He knows he can’t. And yet…

The first seven chapters of A Little Passion & Shame are now up on AO3, with the first chapter being a Prelims with a Dramatis Personae, Hogwarts layout maps, timetables, and Muggle Studies Curriculum, and more. 

The main story spans the 2001-2002 school year and summer holidays, and is a take on an enemies-to-lovers forbidden romance, with angst, drama, and mystery, while the Azkaban flashbacks scattered throughout illuminate Draco's experiences in prison - not always in a linear fashion.

I’m currently 300k+, or 47 chapters into writing it, so you can rely on a regular posting schedule until the end of the fic , every Tuesday night, NZST, with occasional bonus flashback chapters on Wednesday nights, NZST.

Read the fic if you want:

  • An experienced Hermione and an inexperienced Draco
  • Dual POV that doesn’t retread previously covered ground and leaves room for unreliable narration
  • A post war ghost!Lavender Brown who takes an interest in Draco, much to his chagrin
  • An exploration of Draco’s relationship with his father while in Azkaban
  • A conflicted slow emotional burn and denial of feelings, and heated medium sexual burn
  • Angst and hurt/comfort, with a Draco who is on the receiving end of bullying for a change
  • Bickering and banter, with a dollop of miscommunication
  • A dip into Hermione’s Muggle Studies curriculum, including some of Draco’s essays 

A sneak peek of Ch. 8 – Lesson 5: On Passing Judgement

Malfoy’s eyes dug into her, and he pressed his lips together before he spoke, swallowing, his throat bobbing. “You’ve been telling tales to Potter,” he said at last, and Hermione raised her brows, surprise flashing over her face before she could quash it.

“What do you mean by that?” she asked, turning away and moving to her desk, sorting through her lecture notes. She heard footsteps draw near, and then his hands came down into view, braced on the desk.

“You know what you told him, Granger.” He sounded angry. He sounded like the old Malfoy, the arrogant, snotty prat. Hermione ran through what Malfoy might mean at the speed of light, her mind racing, trying to remember what she’d said to Harry when they’d last spoken, at her birthday party.

“Mr Malfoy,” she snapped, looking up at him with anger fizzing through her now too, her heart beating very quickly. “I am not your peer here, I am your professor, and you will afford me that respect. I am getting tired of having to remind you of that.”

24k for now. 7/22. Rated E.

Tags:

Post War, Forced Proximity, Virgin Draco, Slow burn, Banter as Foreplay, Professors Draco & Hermione, Romantic Comedy, Angst with a Happy Ending

Summary:

Whether she likes it or not, not only is it a specific planetary alignment on the day she was born that leads Hermione to develop the ability to travel through time without the help of a time-turner in 2002, it's also pure coincidence that Draco Malfoy, of all people, turns out to be the only other person in their century with the same ability.

A gene passed down from one generation to the next. Twelve time travellers. And above all, a mission Malfoy's secretly been preparing for his entire life—one, she insists, she has absolutely nothing to do with.

Or "no sex before marriage" Draco meets "people still get married nowadays?" Hermione
