    Summary

    July 1997. The Order is scrambling, Harry just escaped by the skin of his teeth from the Dursley's, and Hermione Granger has a checklist to finish before they leave school to defeat Voldemort:

    1. Keep Harry Potter breathing.
    2. Hunt down the Horcruxes.
    3. Experience sex (preferably before dying).

    Fred Weasley was calculated to be the variable of least resistance. He was supposed to be a stress-reliever, keeper of secrets, and a one-time thing. But when a tactical retreat turns into months of hiding, that "one-time thing" becomes a lifeline. Hermione realizes that she forgot to account for two things: the undeniable chaos of hormones and even the best laid plans can go awry.

    Summary

    The muggle man was browsing the stacks at Flourish and Blotts when Lucius spotted something that would change the course of history.

    The muggle had a Dark Mark.

    Surely this man– the father of a mudblood, Lucius reminded himself– hadn't been a Death Eater?

    Lucius didn't know how it was possible, but he vowed there and then that he and his family would do everything in their power to protect this man's daughter-- their very lives could depend upon it.

    Summary

    There are no actual vampires in this story.

    This is a story about Kate who is sent to England against her will, separated from her family, and forced into an arranged marriage. She has so little for herself, so she takes what she can. She makes up worlds in her head and one particular fantasy is about the brooding Viscount Bridgerton. Years later she has the chance to meet him and there is instant chemistry. (Also, there is a healthy serving of smut.)

    “Shall I sketch it for you?” she asked him softly, a sly half smile breaking out across her lips.

    “Hmm?” he responded. Kate laughed quietly at the fact that hmm was not quite a word he could add to his limited vocabulary.

    “Shall I sketch my face, for you to stare at later?” she clarified.

    With a low growl, Lord Bridgerton bent forward and resumed their frenzied kiss.

    This is new, Kate thought to herself, his taste. She had never been kissed like this, with saliva and tongue and lips and biting. Biting. This is how a vampire consumes his lover, she thought.

    Summary

    Hermione Granger never went to Hogwarts. She gave up a life of magic to stay by her ailing father's side.

    Draco Malfoy never knew his father. Lucius Malfoy was sentenced to Azkaban as a Death Eater and punished accordingly after the Order defeated the Dark Lord (for the first and last time).

    Years later, their paths cross at King's Cross Station. Hermione is a ticket attendant, working several jobs to make ends meet, and Draco is a Hogwarts professor, commuting weekly on the Hogwarts Express. And then there's Theodore Nott: Draco's best friend, and the man Hermione has fallen hopelessly in love with at first sight (much to Draco's dismay).

    -----------------------

    Working at King's Cross station has its perks:
    - It gives Hermione plenty of time to read
    - She gets to see her "Handsome Stranger" (the charming man she's certain she's fallen for)

    Working at King's Cross station has its drawbacks, too:
    - Namely, "Jack Frost" (her "Handsome Stranger's" incredibly rude friend, whose frigid glare could turn someone's heart to ice with one glance)

    A Dramione retelling of: While You Were Sleeping.
