Set in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets onwards. Hermione lost track of time researching and is now running late past curfew. She needs to return to the Griffindor Tower and share what she discovered about the monster of the Chamber.

Sookie is about to run out of the house to Bill when she's stopped by the sight of her cousin, who'd disappeared a couple of years prior. Katherine Hale had just gotten her freedom back. She knew she wouldn't be able to keep it for long but she planned to give it up on her terms and not because her family was on the path of self-destruction.
