I do not hold any rights to any of the characters or history of Harry Potter! That honour will forever belong to J.K Rowling. I do however take credit for any characters I make up in this coming story to help the plot.

I recently fell in love with Hermione pure blood fanfics where she ends up being neither Blaise or Theo's sister and then gets with Draco. However with the majority of them I find she comes into accepting her 'family' far too quickly. Acting as though nothing at all happened in the past. So though yes this is a Pureblood Hermione fic and a Hermione x Draco pairing. This is not going to be instant and it will take time before juicy romance to start (I do promise it will happen).

This also will not be a fanfic that bashes Harry or Ron (Especially Ron). They are her best friends and will stay that way. Sure we will have a Jealous Ron who will cause conflict. And a Harry that becomes over worried but that's that.

Now this takes place after the War! Everything that happened in the war happened and I won't be changing much other then a couple deaths!

Now onto the first chapter! And please review!

Chapter 1: Heritage

May 2, that's the date when it finally ended. The war to end a mad man named Voldemort. With his falling came celebration and then came the grief as everyone found out who all fell. All in all they were lucky, as it could have been worst. They could have lost more but they got a little lucky. Fred just barely skirted death by a hair. Somehow they managed to save Lavender Brown, though she would remain terribly scarred for the rest of her life with wolfish tendencies. Sadly the lost Tonks, Remus and Collin a few of many that were tragically killed.

Now 2 months after the war, 1 month after the Death Eater Trails. Found Hermione with those she thought of as her parents. It took her a full month but with some help she found them and reversed the damage she did. But by doing so she also brought back memories she didn't know were hidden. Ones that revealed that she was in fact adopted and not the Muggle Born girl she thought she was. Not only was she magical by birth, but she was Pureblood and Sacred 28.

She was a Nott and the reason she was given up and hidden shocked her. She was Theo's twin sister, a sister he didn't know existed, a twin her birth mother hid away. Giving her to a family that couldn't have children. Changing their memories to believe they were her birth family. A spell that would fade when she was 20 years of age. At which the memory of why she gave her up would come back. Though resorting their memory of her and the magical world also restored this.

"So all this time, I thought I was your daughter I wasn't? I put up with 7 years of teasing and taunting about my birth but all the time I was as pure as they were?" Hermione said looking at her hands. They were back in their home in London. A little pink card with the most beautiful handing writing on it in her hands. Having yet to open it knowing once she did everything would change.

"We would have told you dear but we couldn't." Jane Granger told her tears in her eyes. As upset as she was about the whole 'erase' their memories thing. It saddened her to see the look of betrayal in her daughters eyes. "But no matter who your birth parents are, you are still our daughter and always will be."

"I...But..." Hermione started and stopped unsure what to say or how to process this news. This was life changing or even more then life changing. "It's hard to believe." She finally came to that as a response.

The letter must have been glamoured some how to show up once her 'parents' memories were back. That letter and a box with a golden ribbon tied around it. She could feel the magic that came from the letter in her hands. Knowing that somehow the second she broke the seal that rather then read the letter would speak. Would hold the answer to all her questions as well, but she wasn't sure she wanted to know.

"I... Don't care what this says, your my mother and father. This letter means nothing." She said after a few moment with tears coming down her eyes. She didn't want anyone else as her parents. Sure she always wished for a brother or sister. But not one that was prejudice over blood. Sure he never said anything to her directly but he was friends with ones that did. "I don't need this." She added throwing the letter on the table.

Reaching forward Jane picked it up and handed it back to the crying girl. "My dear, your ours and this won't change that like you said. But with the memories back I know your birth mother loved you. The last things she wanted was to give you up but the look in her eyes said she had to." She told her before looking up at her husband, Liam, who placed his hand on her shoulder. "Just read it, it couldn't hurt."

"Why don't we give her a moment Jane. Let's go out and pick up her favourite take out." Liam told his wife before leaning down and kissing his daughter on the forehead. "You will always have us. This letter just explains why we got so lucky."

Nodding Hermione watched as her mother got up and followed her father to the front door. Once they had their things on the two looked back and Jane blew a kiss to her before they were out the door.

Sitting there she watched the door for a good 10 minutes before her fingers played with the seal on the letter. Looking at it her mind fought with its self on the matter of opening it or not. Finally she took a breath and wiped her eyes with one hand. "I have fought a war, been bullied and tortured. I think I can handle a letter." She told herself before pulling said letter open.

Once open the letter lifted out of her hands and what appeared to be golden glitter sparkled around it. Forming lips the letter gave a sigh before it began its tale.

"My dear beautiful girl. I can only imagine what you look like now. If your anything like your brother or I I am sure you figured out that this letter was charmed to appear upon the retrieval of Liam and Jane's memories of when I gave you to them. I am certain you also have many questions that I hope I answer here." It spoke in a soft gentle tone of a woman. The voice beautiful like that of a song bird in the early mornings.

"If you must know I wanted you. The last thing I wanted was to give you up. But I couldn't keep you knowing what I knew. We were in the middle of a war caused by the Dark Lord your father so stubbornly follows. The deal he and the other Death Eaters made. I just couldn't bring you home knowing them. I never support the vile man and never will understand why others did."

"The Death Eater agreed that that son long as a female child wasn't the only child of a family. They would give them to the Dark Lord to do his bidding. Be it as a servant or... Or as one to bare his children. It didn't matter which they were his upon their birth."

"Because your were a twin and your brother a son. Your father would have given you to HIM, and I couldn't allow that. Unsure what to do I had my friend and midwife hide you. We told your father that I only had the one child, little Theodore."

Blinking at the letter Hermione couldn't help the bit of rage that started boiling in her as she heard the part about what they did with daughters. It was sick and wrong in so many ways. But she also cried for the woman in the letter having no choice but to give a child up.

"Luckily your father was away from the house more then he was in it. We were able to hide you for a few weeks while I searched for a good family, a way for you to live. I searched through the muggle world. Knowing they wouldn't find you there. Finally I found the perfect couple, one that would love and cherish you. Most importantly one that would keep you from your father and the Dark Lord's grasps."

"Even after the fall of the Dark Lord I...Couldn't take you back. I saw the light in your eyes as your parents head you. The love you had for them and them for you. How could I take you from that and into the cruel house I lived in? But I watched you from afar, and add to this letter when possible."
