Blourish & Flotts: Beautifully Retold

A Most Inconvenient Devotion: an original adaptation of Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love by isthisselfcare — Chapter 17 — The Rose Garden
A furious argument leaves Draco and Hermione standing far too close for comfort, and an accidental dinner invitation sends the evening somewhere neither of them expected. At Malfoy Manor, teasing, wine, meddling house-elves, and a candlelit rose garden make professional distance increasingly difficult to maintain.
But beneath the banter, the evening also gives them room to speak about scars that are usually hidden—both the ones inflicted upon them and the ones they still carry from choices made during the war.

A Most Inconvenient Devotion: an original adaptation of Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love by isthisselfcare — Chapter 16 — Above and Beyond
After surviving an extraordinary day, Draco and Hermione retreat to the luxurious Seneca for hot showers, clean robes, room service, and what should be a quiet return to civilisation. Instead, their temporary refuge brings teasing, unexpected tenderness, two sunsets, and several inconvenient reminders that their partnership is becoming harder to define.
But the evening takes another turn when an unwanted admirer appears in the hotel foyer. Draco’s protective instincts collide with Hermione’s determination to manage her own affairs, forcing them into an argument over where professional responsibility ends—and where something far more personal may already have begun.

A Most Inconvenient Devotion: an original adaptation of Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love by isthisselfcare — Chapter 15 — The Unfinished Portkey
A sentient relic, an unfinished Portkey, and a dungeon full of magical Torment turn Draco and Hermione’s escape into something far stranger than either of them planned. With the Sisterhood closing in and their options rapidly disappearing, survival depends on trust, improvisation, and one dangerously incomplete piece of magic.
What follows carries them far beyond the monastery, where exhaustion gives way to unexpected quiet, absurd discoveries, and a growing ease between two people who are becoming much better partners than either seems ready to admit.

A Most Inconvenient Devotion: an original adaptation of Draco Malfoy and the Mortifying Ordeal of Being in Love by isthisselfcare — Chapter 14 — Touch Me Not
Draco and Hermione begin Midsummer morning disguised as hopelessly besotted Muggle newlyweds, hiking toward the monastery that guards the relic they have come to steal. Between questionable fashion choices, an ill-fated tumble into a ditch, and some increasingly dangerous moments of closeness, their supposedly simple plan rapidly becomes anything but.
Once inside the Magdalene’s grotto, the pair must bluff, improvise, and dismantle a succession of formidable magical defences before they can reach the hidden reliquary. But when they finally arrive, the treasure chamber has one last surprise waiting for them.

Hermione has a favour to ask Draco—one involving the Summer Solstice, a heavily protected monastery in southern France, and the theft of a fragment from Mary Magdalene’s skull. Naturally, Draco is delighted by the criminal possibilities.
As their carefully planned mission begins, an undercover journey through Provence gives them an unexpected stretch of ordinary time together. Between reckless driving, seaside wandering, sharp banter, and increasingly difficult-to-ignore attraction, Draco finds himself confronting feelings that are becoming much harder to dismiss.
