Hey! This is my new story! Summary:
Hermione and Draco were forced into an arranged marriage. Of course, they weren't in love. He was on the dark side, and she the light. Now they have to live with each other and produce an heir…as they live with each other, will they ever be in love? Or just civil towards each other for the rest of their lives?
Hope you enjoy!
You all may know me as Hermione Jane Granger. Well, that has changed. It is now Hermione Jane Granger Malfoy. You may wonder how I am married to Draco know-it-all-prat-Slytherin-King Malfoy. Well, it's simple. Okay, so it isn't simple. If we were in love, then it would be simple. Anyway, the only way I am married to Draco know-it-all-prat-Slytherin-King Malfoy is because of the stupid war!
About five years ago the war against Voldemort began. Thousands of witches and wizards lost their lives in that war, along with a few innocent muggles. Harry, Ron and I fought since day one. We had many encounters with Draco before the "agreement" was made. Now I know you are all wondering what that "agreement" is, you all have probably guessed, but first a little more about the war.
During the time of the war, a lot of unexpected things happened. First there was the Death Eaters taking over Hogwarts. Without Dumbledore things went mad. But, all the professors, seventh years, and the Order fighting, things were back to normal, well in the least. Then there was the eloping of The Great Harry Potter and Ginny Weasley. I'm happy for my friends. At least they were happy about getting married unlike Draco and me. Then there was the birth of Ron and Lavender's child, April. And I might add, that they are not married. Yeah, I was a little disappointed in Ron though. I mean, he could have waited… though, he is a guy, and so that doesn't surprise me. Merlin knows how many times Draco has done it. Ugh, that has got to be a lot of woman or teenage girls back in Hogwarts… Now moving on to the "agreement".
About three months ago, the war was still going on. That would have made four years and nine months. The Dark Lord would only agree to end the war, if one dark side male and one light side female, joined in matrimony. Of course, that just had to be Draco and me. So now I live in Malfoy Manner with Draco and Narcissa. Lucius is currently in Azkaban.
So I get to experience being a Malfoy. Yay me. Though there are some things I am a little afraid of:
1. My in-laws
2. My husband abusing me, insulting me, etc. (though now he is 22, my age, and is a lot nicer than his younger years)
3. My "duties" as a Malfoy
4. The Dark Lord
5. And if I will get part of my old life back (Seeing friends, family, doing stuff I would have done before the war and marriage)
"Hermione?" Draco called out to me, breaking me out of my reverie. I looked over to him standing by the door. "Dinner's ready," he told me before leaving.
That's nice. He leaves me after. Why didn't a house elf just come get me? I got up off of the bed and fixed my hair and make-up before walking down the many hallways leading to the dining room. Yeah, so not how I pictured my married life. My married life would have been great. I would have been in love, children running around, and living in a middle class house. Not, not being in love, having no children (yet) and living in a mansion. Not my cup of tea.
As I walked into the dining room I was greeted with Draco and Narcissa sitting at the table waiting for me. There were assortments of food all along the table. I took my respective seat next to Draco and we began eating.
So how was it? I already have chapters planned out. There should be more than 14…Well, review! More Drama and later romance!
