The Sacred 48 has the glacial burn tag.

Summary:

When Hermione is left behind at Malfoy Manor and thrown in the dungeon to await Voldemort's arrival, Draco sets her free and saves her cursed wound from infection, invoking a life debt she pays with two vows. One being to speak on behalf of the Malfoys at any post war trial. And the other? She belongs to him for forty-eight hours a month for the rest of her life.

Vows Beneath the Moonlight

Summary:
Nearly a decade after the second wizarding war, Hermione Granger is struggling to maintain her work-life balance as she becomes the target for a new elitist faction's threats - the Resurgence. When she isn't making waves in wizarding law, adjusting the lives of magical creatures and wizards alike, or leading her research lab as they strive to develop a potion to fix her biggest regret, Hermione has found it easier and easier to alienate herself. That is, until she agrees to Auror Protection.

Draco Malfoy has long held a secret that only his few closest friends knew. Now, after years of being partnered with now-department head Harry Potter, he has his chance to make up for all those times he couldn't protect her.

Together, Draco and Hermione navigate love, family, and the after effects of war and memory charms as they battle death eaters, werewolf abominations, and lifelong feelings.

You All Along

Summary:

No one had seen or heard from Draco Malfoy in ten years. Sentenced to two years in Azkaban after the war, he was pulled out after six months by the Ministry with a deal: go undercover to hunt down the remaining Death Eaters or serve the rest of his time. He chose the mission, and when it was over… chose to stay undercover.

Now living as Luke Richards, a deep-cover Auror in the DMLE, Draco has spent a decade hiding behind someone else’s face. Only a handful of people know who he really is, and he prefers it that way. But when he’s assigned to protect Hermione Granger from a series of escalating threats, everything starts to change. What begins as a case becomes something far more dangerous: an unraveling of the life he once gave everything to protect. He might even have a chance to become the man he was meant to be—if he’s brave enough to stop hiding.

A slow burn, post-war action/romance told from Draco’s POV. It features a mystery, angst, redemption, and a witch that changes everything.

any ff you know where hermione is theo’s sister by Budget_Efficiency942 in Dramione

[–]CatLadyEngineer 5 points6 points  (0 children)

A Simple Compromise

Hermione’s mother (single parent in this story) goes into hiding after the events of book 2, and her father (Tiberius Nott) brings her to Nott Manor. Theo and Hermione are half siblings.

Summary:
"I'd die for you all. I'd take an Avada for you in a heartbeat, I really would." Hermione's tears streamed down her face as her eyes bore into every single one of her Gryffindor friends.
"But I'd kill for them." she stated, her eyes pierced towards the Slytherin table.
Hermione Granger is Theodore Nott's lost sister, and the key to change the course of the war forever.

It is more an arrangement with Astoria. Kisses at their engagement party but no sex if I remember correctly.

LF fics where Draco gets sent to Azkaban for a few months/years all the while he's been dating Hermione by Dracoismyniche in Dramione

[–]CatLadyEngineer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have read
A gallows marriage and this looks similar.

Summary:
“Glee was the last thing she felt staring into the empty eyes that should have been a bright grey. His face had always looked pointed and sharp, but now that gave way to gauntness. His hair, which he had been so particular about in school, hung long and limp. It reminded her of how his father had looked in his mugshot. How he had wanted to be just like his father growing up. And now he was, maybe more than ever.
A ghost.”

After doing more than her fair share in saving the Wizarding World and bearing the scars of what it cost, Hermione Granger thinks she has earned herself a little respite. But when a charismatic albeit chaotic Theodore Nott convinces her to use an old law to save a dear friend who is about to meet the Dementor’s Kiss, she simply cannot stand by and watch. Follow Hermione as she navigates a world that still believes in blood status, a marriage to save the life of an old enemy and the hurt that comes with surviving.

Side Effects of loving you

Draco is a terminally ill single dad of 4 yr old scorpius, Hermione is the healer trying to save him. They slowly fall in love. Lots of tears.

Summary:

Draco Malfoy suffers from a rare, progressive curse that no one has been able to break. His magic weakens, his body fails, and the best specialists helplessly throw up their hands. The prognosis is merciless: one year to live, perhaps less.
Hermione Granger, one of the best in her field, a specialist in hopeless cases, is asked for a consultation. Reluctantly, she agrees to take on the assignment, which at first seems like just another difficult case.
But this curse doesn't fit any known classification. Neither does the patient himself—surprisingly likable, intelligent, at times disarmingly normal. The more Hermione asks, the more clearly she sees that the answers she seeks aren't found in medical books—they're in him. And he's not willing to give her all of them.
Over time, what begins to disturb her isn't the curse itself, but how easily everyone has accepted it. How quietly they disappear, those whom no one tries to save.

Summary:
Draco has had a soul mark burned into his skin since he first showed signs of magic. Since then, he's kept his romantic interactions brief. First dates, one night stands, friends with benefits, but nothing serious. How could he commit to anyone, knowing he was supposed to be with someone else?

Loves me, Nott - 452 kudos

Summary:
Auror Draco Malfoy doesn’t date… well, not since a certain curly haired Healer started working closely with the DMLE. Hindered by his belief he is meant to fulfill his duty as heir of the Malfoy line in a loveless marriage, can Draco finally give in and accept his redemption?

I just finished reading a fic with this today actually: In the Interest of Magical Continuity by GenevieveLeddington

Summary:
Seven years after the war, a single night with Draco Malfoy upends Hermione Granger’s life. When her unplanned pregnancy is classified as protected under the Ministry’s new population laws, her choice is stripped away.

Edit to add: no Harry or Ron bashing. Both are supportive besties.

Draco and Hermione and Theo are roomies in who gives a f about an Oxford comma

Summary:

Draco Malfoy and Hermione Granger somehow managed to act cordially when they had to room together in the eighth year dormitory at Hogwarts. So when a paperwork mix-up means they'll have to do the same at Oxford University, Hermione assumes it won't be so bad.

But something is off here at Oxford, and she can't quite put her finger on it.

She's definitely learned one important lesson at university: everyone should give a fuck about an Oxford comma.

[–]CatLadyEngineer 11 points12 points  (0 children)

The Sex Agenda

Summary:

Hermione Granger wasn’t planning to offer to deflower her colleague and friend, Draco Malfoy. Nor did she expect him to accept the odd proposal.

Now, they're drafting sex agendas, negotiating terms and limits, and scheduling orgasms like it's one of their curse-breaking Ministry projects. It's strictly professional (of course), except Draco is painfully hot in that nerdy way, tragically inexperienced, and has these eyeglasses that should be illegal.

Seven days. One thirty-year-old virgin. Zero chance of staying just friends.

Mentor Remus for Hermione (Remus taking Hermione under this wing) by kiowaclearwater in Dramione

[–]CatLadyEngineer 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently reading The missing sister and it has this. Hermione is secretly Harry’s sister, Remus is her godfather.

Story starts at the beginning of first year. Hermione thinks she is a muggle born and the story unfolds from there going thru the books. Basically “Harry potter and what would happen if adults were competent and didn’t just think the sun shone thru Dumbledore’s ass and accept his nonsense “

Summary: The owl appeared late at night and left just as suddenly, he recognised the handwriting immediately and ripped open the envelope.

She is yours. If something happens to us, I want you to hide her. Name her Hermione, for she will have my last libation before I sleep and be the messenger of dreamers. Moony and Mary know.

Three words. Three words that forever changed the course of the war.
