Summary
Ravaged by war and the fall of the Dark Lord, Hogwarts has decreed a "lost year,” requiring all students to redo their previous term. The Ministry employs a new Census Bureau Director who incites a merciless Marriage Law in the hopes of saving the Wizarding World from extinction. Hermione and Snape are forcibly matched but they will not take this lying down (or... will they?).

She noticed for the first time how meticulously tailored his robes were, fitted to him like a second skin. She tried but failed to imagine the body beneath.He just seemed so unilaterally formed, like a gargoyle affixed to the ramparts.
In the seven years that she had known him, she had only ever seen him as this shadowy figment, a procurer of tasks and dispenser of lectures. Her mind couldn’t find its way to a reality in which he existed as a man of flesh and breath. How could he, she thought, possess any of those tender and vulnerable afflictions of the human condition? He wasn’t human. He was… Snape.

Summary
All that needed to happen now was for Severus to say the magic words that would allow them to start. “If that is the case, what do I want to hear from you?”
He inhaled deeply through his nose, his nostrils flaring as he passed a glance over both of them once more before locking his eyes with hers. “I consent, fully and with all my faculties, to what my lady has offered. I submit to you, Hermione.”Series

Summary
The Broom Closet, Great Britain's only wizarding sex shop, is run by an exclusive, member-only, invite-only kink club of the same name.
Severus has been hired to brew potions.
Hermione has been hired to update the wards.
Both are unaware they aren't the club's only non-member employee.
It’s just a contract, just a way to make money, and nothing else will come from it.

Summary
The Ministry of Magic passed the Wizarding Marriage Act of 2002, requiring all unmarried witches and wizards of a certain age to marry their Ministry assigned matches and produce an heir within two years.
It was met with outrage, which fizzled into acceptance, which slumped into compliance, except from two very outspoken powerful opponents of the law, Hermione Granger and Severus Snape.
And it had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that they were matched to each other.
By mid-2003, they were some of the last holdouts of the early matches, and the Ministry took it into their own hands to force the pair together.
Faced with an impossible choice, Azkaban or marriage, they decide the best way to defeat the law is from within it.- Language:
