Antonin Dolohov's purple-flamed curse had unexpected consequences when it failed to kill Hermione Granger in the Department of Mysteries. Without regular access to his touch to soothe the remnants of the curse, she'll die... AU from end of OotP.

In 1986, a young muggle seduced by her curiosity stumbled into a pure blood wizard and his animal companion. Curiosity, altruism and kindness met rage, hatred and exhaustion. The meeting that should not have been will call upon its retribution many fold in the years to come.

While being tortured for information at Malfoy Manor, Hermione uses the last shreds of her magical ability to cast a blood bond between herself and a dark wizard in a desperate act of survival. Antonin Dolohov can't hurt her, but he wants to. Badly. (Drama, angst, and most horribly - eventual romance)

Caught in the Potions classroom when Snape returns from a dangerous Death Eater meeting, Hermione is terrified until she sees he's wounded and in need of her help. Knowing she should leave before he realises her crush, but unable when he needs her, Hermione patches him up and is only too happy to show him how grateful she is for all he sacrifices.

The mission should have been simple. Seduce a Death Eater for capture and interrogation by the Order, who would hold him hostage until such time that his usefulness ran out. Hermione had agreed to help with the seduction part of that mission. She didn't agree to babysitting an angry Death Eater in a remote safe house. And she sure as hell didn't agree to Thorfinn Rowle.

What if the Elder Brother had healed Sandor Clegane's wounds but failed to get rid of his old demons? Hiding in Tyrosh with Sansa, Sandor realizes she might want more than his protection but he's not able to return her love and only offers her a physical relationship. "A part of him wants to pull away and to mock her fears, while the other craves to touch and to be touched."

After unexpectedly saving Hermione Granger's life during the Battle of Hogwarts, Antonin Dolohov uses the debt created by his actions to ensure he is not condemned to live out the rest of his life in Azkaban. However, the sentence he does receive is one that neither himself nor Hermione could have anticipated, and it is certainly one they're both exceedingly unhappy about.

When a mission leaves Bane stranded in the wilderness, the last thing he expects is to run into a runaway. Little does he know the effects this girl will have on him, or how it leads up to his decision in The Dark Knight Rises.
