Marriage, Murder, and Other Misfortunes (A Marriage Law RomCom, with Angry Hermione and Bratty Draco)
Draco is fresh out of Azkaban, and he has the tattoos (and gold teeth) to prove it. With a penchant for chaos and a need for revenge, our favourite Slytherin takes a job at the DMLE. It’s not exactly a wise decision, but neither is signing up for an arranged marriage just to piss off mother dearest. But really…what could go wrong?

SUMMARY
Five years after the Battle of Hogwarts, the wizarding world is what you might call “a godsdamned mess.” The population is dwindling, the economy is suffering, and Hermione Granger has decided to pursue an arranged marriage—but only so she can be nominated to the antiquated Wizengamot, of course. After all, the Wizengamot is ignoring the world’s problems, and Hermione is determined to fix it. Granted, she never expected to be matched with Draco sodding Malfoy—the newest DMLE consultant who wears his Azkaban tattoos as proudly as his childhood sneer. But admittedly, between the turbulence of her farcical relationship, corrupt politicians, and a serial killer on the loose, nothing in Hermione’s life is going according to plan. Maybe hate sex with her new husband will help?
FEATURING MMOM is a grouchy, slutty, absurdist RomCom that features: - Both Draco and Hermione POVs (including some brief, occasional POVs from other characters) - Marriage of Convenience, which turns into Marriage Law - Angry Hermione (She’s competent, flawed, and in dire need of a shag.) - Post-Azkaban Draco (He’s unhinged, obsessed, bisexual, and unfailingly loyal. Also, TATTOOED 🥵) - Filthy, filthy hate sex - A Narcissa + Crookshanks Alliance - Cantankerous Manor Portraits - An Ensemble Cast (Auror Harry, Chaotic Ginny, Persnickity Pansy, Neville the Munch, Virgin Theo, Loveable Luna, Divorced Bill, Secretive Charlie, “Monogamous Dickhead” Blaise, and Ron…the Elitist Arsehole) - Political Collapse (Fuck the Wizengamot, IYKYK) - A dark murder mystery (And Death Eaters on the run.) - Ron Bashing if you squint (he’s taking his trauma out on everyone, but he gets a redemption arc) - Sexual tension and experience (Hermione’s in a drought, but she is plenty inexperienced.)
P.S. Art is by me 🖤
