    Summary

    In search of distraction from the memories of the past, Draco Malfoy moves to Bulgaria after the war and puts his combat skills to use as a private security officer.

    He starts a job protecting Viktor Krum’s household as the Quidditch World Cup looms. It is a surprise—and perhaps too much of a distraction—when Malfoy learns that Krum’s lovely, neglected trophy fiancée is none other than Hermione Granger.

    Summary

    It’s 2008 and Draco Malfoy is a secret assassin. It's legitimate - he gets paid for it, and some higher ups in the Ministry (probably?) know he’s out there… killing people. He’s quite good, but that tracks with his dubious accounting of rights and wrongs and his penchant for self-preservation. During his downtime he does a great job of acting like a pureblood in penance... mostly by drinking and shagging his way into oblivion.

    This double life helps to numb Draco to the constant feelings of shame and guilt from his formative years in which he was an utter cunt- but everything is upended when his team (assassins can have coworkers, alright?) dies in action and he does not. Suspended and forced to go to therapy, Draco is adrift.

    When Hermione Granger re-enters the fray, their hateful relationship that was once fraught with swotty bickering (erm, and the occasional slur) is suddenly tense in a very different way.

    How will these two come together? How often will Theo say something terribly charming? Do we hate Ron or is Ron just, meh? Oh, and what’s going on with that one murderous witch who’s out to kill them all (forgot to mention that part…)?

    Summary

    “I know I said sorry during the trial,” Malfoy said, “But let me apologize again.” His voice was quiet. Almost tender. “Truly. I’m sorry for everything.”

    She looked up then, meeting his gaze. So soft and open, she’d revisit this moment in her mind later, live in the warmth in his eyes. For now, she offered him a tight lipped smile. A single nod.

    “Thank you for apologizing.”

    Then, it was awkward, and she hated him a bit. For reopening a wound she’d long thought healed, for having the audacity to grow.

    or:

    One year before the announcement of the Marriage Law, Hermione Granger and Draco Malfoy learn to appreciate the importance of a well-maintained working relationship.

    Summary

    “If I were to use my technique on you, even a special-grade curse would suddenly feel like child’s play,” she told Mr. Higuruma.

    There was a degree of interest there that he couldn’t hide. All men were fundamentally the same, hunting for power of one kind or another, and even the ones who had it were always greedy for more.

    “And that’s not to mention other effects I can produce,” she finished vaguely. Perhaps he’d catch the hint, but she didn’t know him well enough to spell it out. “Someone like me, from the moment I was born, was just too valuable to live freely.”

    Utahime has known all her life that she's destined to be sold to the highest bidder when it comes to marriage. But when the winning bidder is murdered right before her and the finger of blame points squarely at Utahime, her life is shattered. With the most powerful clans, senior figures of Jujutsu Society, and even her own family gunning for her, there's only one man she can turn to for help... if she can just figure out what he wants in return.
