Summary
“Well?” Hermione rolled her shoulders back and stood in what she deemed to be a more kissable stance within the coat closet before gesturing toward him. “Go on then.”
Draco’s face twisted in incredulous confusion. “We’re not actually going to kiss. You do know that, right?”
---
OR: Draco doesn't want to kiss Hermione during a game night, and she's fairly certain there's more to it than the reason he gave.

Summary
“Buying books and reading them are two different habits,” Hermione points out as she holds out his change. “Like those snobs that have wall-to-wall leatherbounds with uncracked spines.”
She realises, a moment too late, with his dapper coat and stiff collar, that her mystery man is probably the exact kind to have uncracked leatherbounds.
But he laughs—a soft, tinkling sound like silver bells—and plucks the coins from her palm. “Don’t worry, Miss Bookshop. I’ve left my snobbish ways behind.”
Runner-Up for Dragon Heartstring's SAD GIRL WINTER fest: MAJOR LIFTS - bittersweet best in show; SONGWRITER OF THE YEAR - best prose; RECORD OF THE YEAR - overall favourite.

Summary
Nominated Best of 'Dead Dove me harder' on Reddit's 2025 Top Dramione fics.
When Death Eaters kidnap the Golden Girl, Draco Malfoy decides that she will be his to break. What starts of as a stint in Malfoy Manor as a general slave, quickly turns into something else when Draco develops an obsession with her that becomes extremely volatile.
“So, what will it be, Granger? Your body,” he said and she felt his hand on her waist, squeezing firmly. “Or your mind?”
“You don't need to do any of this, Malfoy,” she said softly, hating every single way her body was betraying her by showing him the level of fear he was capable of instilling in her.
He released her waist, his hand on her chest was gone and he took a step back, creating a space between them that made her want to take a deep breath, but too afraid that she might still suffocate from the poison of his words.
“You’re right, I don't," he said and reached beside her for his tea. “But I want to.”
“Why?”
He took a long sip of tea, seemingly satisfied with the brew. He looked at her then and smiled again.
“Because I can.”

Draco Malfoy’s Ledger of Perceived Slights by MagicOrMayhem

Summary
Nominated Best of 'Soulmates/Magical Bonds,' 'Hogwarts Era,' and 'Dead Dove Me Harder' on 2025's Top Dramione Fics on Reddit
Draco Malfoy’s Ledger of Perceived Slights:
1. Hermione Granger remains an insufferable twat. Winning a war has done nothing to improve her personality.
2. Mudblood. Enough said.
3. That punch.
4. The shape of her mouth when she says the word, “Ferret.”
5. Her hair. It looks like it caught the blast-end of a Filibuster’s firework.
6. The way she struts around the castle like Dumbledore himself anointed her the Chosen One. Meanwhile, I’m stuck with a burning, bleeding reminder of my greatest failure on my arm...
__________________________
Draco Malfoy is back at Hogwarts for eighth year.
Unfortunately for him, so is Hermione Granger.
So, during potion’s class—as Hermione flies through Advanced N.E.W.T-level Potions work—Draco makes lists, reminding himself of all the reasons he hates her…
And maybe a few reasons he doesn’t.
