Hermione has gained the trust and loyalty of the Slytherins through deceit and lies. She is given a great task, one that causes those around her to see the truth. Hermione is slipping, and there's only one person there to save her.

He's the only one willing to listen to her, and she's willing to be there for him. A dark event causes her to break down, and he finds that in his favour.

Roses bloom into beautiful flowers; giving off an intoxicating scent and able to be any vibrant colour they want. However, beautiful as they may be, they are always damaged somehow, someway. It may not be so obvious at first, but you just have to look closer to see the damage the serpentine snake has left.

Even Humanity's Strongest has his breaking point, it's just a matter of if and when an event will happen that will push him to the edge.

When presented with someone who appears to be suffocating in the darkness of evil, it's only natural to try and help the person out of the dark cloud. It's only natural to want to heal this person's broken soul. However, it isn't natural to think you love and become obsessed with this evil person. It isn't natural to lose yourself whilst you strive to heal this person's soul...

"You see a girl, a pretty girl, and want to get to know her better. You befriend her, start to have feelings for her, so you think you know everything there is to. Only... you don't. She's hiding; hiding from you, from them, from everyone. She's hiding from the madness that is slowly suffocating her... and you don't even notice, do you?"

A new life in Muggle Brooklyn. A new career path. Practically a new Hermione. When life becomes secure and puts Hermione in a good place, things are instantly flipped back around with the sudden and unwanted arrival of the infamous Draco Malfoy.
