Hermione finds herself having to assist one Draco Malfoy with a family curse come to light the year of his 21st birthday. With no option but to work together with mere months left, the two find themselves entwined in a way neither would have suspected possible. Rated M for language and deviant sexual situations. Story loosely based on events and timeline of Beauty and the Beast.

Memory charm fic. Hermione pays the price for helping the man she loves with his mission. It's not easy to disappear in the eyes of the one you love. It's much harder to have it happen by your own hand. M for language and mild sexual references. Response to a private challenge issued to me by 'Lady J'.
