hasn't told her about the texts she gets in the middle of the night, or the

Pairing: Hermione/Scabior
Rating: M

Pairing: Draco/Harry
Rating: T
Length: 18m
Summary: Harry loves his garden, and he loves his sons, and he also loves— Well, he definitely feels something for Draco, who is currently distractingly topless under a pear tree. The language of flowers isn’t much good when it comes to big declarations, though; Harry needs to find the words to tell Draco just exactly what he’s been feeling all these years.

Reader:

bluestringpudding
Pairing: Hermione/Bellatrix
Rating: E
Length: 57m
Summary: You marry men to kill them. Every woman should know that, according to Bellatrix Lestrange.
It’s too bad pesky private investigator Hermione Granger doesn’t understand that.
It’s too bad she seems determined to find out why Bellatrix’s husbands all drop like flies.
It’s too bad she’s invested in tracking her down and making her pay for her crimes.
Or is it?

Title: Lady BloodPure's Society Papers
Author:

the-francakes
Reader:

cailynwrites
Pairing: Neville/Pansy
Rating: E
Length: 1h 28m
Summary: No one could take their eyes off of a very unexpected couple on
the dance floor: Mister Neville Longbottom and Miss Pansy Parkinson. Years
ago, dancing with a Blood Traitor would define a woman as most unfit as a
Pureblood wife or even lady. Fortunately, the same standards do not hold
true… for the most part. Though, it was quite telling that the rest of Miss
Parkinson’s dance partners were chosen by her mother. While Mister
Longbottom certainly has grown up, he is not fit for Pureblood Society. He
wasn’t even wearing gloves!

Length: 8m49s
Summary: Amelia can't stop the voices in her head.
