*COMPLETE* During a school wide Secret Santa, Hermione has the bad luck of picking Draco Malfoy, suspected Death Eater. When she tries to sneakily learn his secrets in order to get his gift, and Malfoy winds up trapped under some mistletoe, things get out of hand. Who said snogging a Death Eater wouldn't land her in a strangely addictive mess? A Christmassy Dramione tale.

'She could come into use. A new recruit don't you think...take her to a place where she can be trained properly to join us, somewhere quiet where no-one can hear her screams.' The dark lord enlists Draco to train a fractured Hermione into a true death eater while hidden as Harry and Ron try to continue on without her. Set after Malfoy Manor in DH. Dark, Angst, Eventual Romance.

With most of the wizarding population dead or infertile, a marriage law has been enacted. Draco Malfoy has decided that if he can't have a pureblood, his wife will be the best dirty-blooded witch of his age. A Malfoy always gets what he wants, even if it means playing around the rules. All is fair in love and war; Hermione Granger doesn't stand a chance.

“How can you begin to defend yourself when you do not understand what you are fighting against or for?” The line between light and dark fades. The past becomes the future. The future becomes the past. The present is entirely muddled. LM/HG.

A Dramione story. Hermione does Draco a BIG favor. Will it make them question their feelings about each other? crazy first chap...
