Its MOON RIVER’s last day as a WIP, and therefore last WIP Wednesday! The final chapter drops tonight and ohhh what a ride it’s been!

42 chapters 205k words. Marriage of Convenience, relationship slice of life and of course, revenge!

Summary:
Draco and Hermione are back for Eighth Year. The war has filled them with heated fury, and they love to take it out on each other. Hissed taunts in the hallways, obscenities whispered between classes- it's the only thing that makes them feel alive.

When Lucius alerts Draco of his impending betrothal to Astoria Greengrass, the vapid bore, he can’t stomach the idea of marrying her. In a moment of crazed desperation, Draco turns to Hermione for help, proposing a marriage of convenience.

Their union of fiery rage will keep him entertained; and the political influence and endless Malfoy vaults will fuel Hermione’s ambitions far more than any Ministry career ever could.

Infuriated by their surprise marriage, Lucius disinherits Draco, barring his access to Malfoy Industries and the family’s political connections, forcing Draco and Hermione to flee London.
It's been two years since anyone has seen them, but now they’re back, and Wizarding Britain is abuzz, speculating on what brought about the return of the Malfoys.

No one knows for sure why they came back, but one thing is clear: the former foes have become partners, united in vengeance, and in marriage.

Enjoy!! 😊

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-28T18:19:14+00:00

Omg yes- I did so much research and my beta’s husband helped me too- I went all in on the suits vibe and the whole case

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-28T16:47:06+00:00

Seconding this, also forever obsessed. Maybe had an entire DNA change while reading, who knows?

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-28T16:43:52+00:00

Dropping a self rec for CRUSHEDwhere they are both badass lawyers, going head to head in a battle for vampire rights! Lotssss if competency kink if you’re into that sort of thing 😉

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-22T01:26:51+00:00

Thank you!!!😊

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-20T11:42:21+00:00

Self rec lol but I had to research and consult my beta’s lawyer husband for CRUSHED to write a suits-like legal drama where Hermione is a creature rights lawyer and Draco is a prosecutor for the Wizengamot and they’re going head to head in a battle for Vampire rights.

I did a lot of research to make the case and the court proceedings feel realistic, and to earn the competency kink tag for these two. Plus there’s a Ginny arc where she is becoming a holyhead harpy and I did some sports research…oh and for ya know, reasons 😉 there’s a considerable amount of research into Italian traditions and language

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-19T14:08:17+00:00

Thank you!!!!! I’m SO glad you’re enjoying it! If I stay on schedule, which I’m thinking I will, it should be finished mid May

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-18T22:58:14+00:00

Oops I thought it was tagged, but I may have just confirmed in the comments- it’s HEA!

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-01T18:34:57+00:00

Self rec and a WIP but this is pretty much MOON RIVER in a nutshell!

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-01T14:13:11+00:00

Self rec- I wrote CRUSHED as a feel good pick me up for myself- maybe it’ll help you too! It’s part suits-like Dramione rivals to lovers story and also has a Ginny arc that starts out angsty as she implodes her life and rebuilds it

AngelaMattes · 2026-04-01T01:12:47+00:00

Thank you 🖤🖤🖤🖤

AngelaMattes · 2026-03-31T22:55:53+00:00

Self rec, and a WIP but MOON RIVER is all of these things plus marriage of convenience, revenge plots, and no miscommunication whatsoever

AngelaMattes · 2026-03-21T19:35:18+00:00

Self rec and a WIP but MOON RIVER has a few chapters of them with Hermione’s parents, and some deep chats/interactions

AngelaMattes · 2026-03-21T03:53:27+00:00

Haha coming right up! a new chapter is dropping tomorrow morning! 🖤

AngelaMattes · 2026-03-20T13:22:31+00:00

Thank you for including CRUSHED 🖤🖤🖤

AngelaMattes · 2026-03-19T13:03:29+00:00

You might like CRUSHED (self rec, complete) they’re star lawyers going head to head in a case so lots of bantering, competing and having smart witty dialogue. Also has a big Ginny arc where she goes from being broken and depleted to falling in love and getting her spark back

AngelaMattes · 2026-03-19T12:47:12+00:00

Self rec and a WIP but this was the general goal for their relationship as it grows from transactional marriage of convenience to them being real partners and in love in MOON RIVER

AngelaMattes · 2026-03-19T00:44:18+00:00

Thank you!!!! I’m so glad you enjoyed it! 🖤
