   Summary

   One year after the Battle of Hogwarts, the Ministry passes a Marriage Law to rebuild a shattered society. When the Arithmancy declares Hermione Granger’s only perfect match to be Headmistress Minerva McGonagall, both women must decide how to live under a decree neither believes in. What begins as duty becomes solidarity, then friendship, then something quieter and fiercer than either expected. Through grief, defiance, and the rebuilding of a world, they learn that love—like magic—cannot be legislated.
