Oh you got me, you got me good. Brilliant and diaboical. 

I just reread this after a few years. This is still a great one shot. Wonderfully executed. 

Exciting !  Well done.

ooooooooooh, it was worth it just to find out the surprise pairing!

well, that did NOT end how i thought it would... still good though.

All I was so sure she was cheating on Ron with Severus. You fooled me quite brilliantly. I think I read too much happy-endingly SS/HG fiction .

Oh, ewe, that was unexpected! Quite the twist in the end!

Well damn, you fooled me. I thought it was Ron she married and was cheating with Severus! I was a bit shocked though that it was Draco.

I totally didn't understand the ending. Like, it literally made no sense to me and I thought you'd screwed it up or something until I re-read it and realized, no, I was just stupid and couldn't fathom a story with this summary where it wasn't Ron she was cheating on with Severus. I feel rather stupid right now but I'm giggling to myself nevertheless. Good job.

Wow! You fooled me! Of course, I thought she was married to Ron and was sneaking around with Severus, but egad, what a twist! Bravo!

Nice and sneaky!  Terrific (and evil!) reveal--very well done!*applauds*

I just knew Hermione was married to Ron and had then met Severus later -- and fallen in love with her Potions Master.Well, you certainly pulled off one the slickest surprises here at TPP!  Good job!!!Regards,Beth

Oh. . . oh my. . . I thought it was going to be her and Ron that were married, and she was seeing Severus. . . but this makes a lot of sense, too! *eyebrows almost permanently up* I'm quite impressed how you managed to carry it off. Of course I read it all the way through after learning it was Draco. . . and it still seemed to be so perfect! Wonderful job.Thank you so much for the amazing and slightly astonishing story.~Katie

Nice twist!

I will once again point out that I love this.And once again point out that DRACO of all people left me cold.  LOL!You did a great job of manipulating the reader.

You diabolically clever and sneaky thing, you!  I could tell that there was bound to be a plot twist of some sort when I saw that you'd chosen to withhold the name of one of the characters...but I nevertheless assumed that Severus would be the "other man" and not the betrayed spouse.  I have to admit that the line "she’d always liked intellect in a man" threw me at first when I discovered the twist because Severus is clearly a man with a high degree of intellect as well.  However, when I thought about it again, it made sense -- probably the reason why Hermione chose to ignore the advice of her friends and marry him in the first place is because she was bowled over by his intelligence.

This was such an artfully written story.  The way you keep Hermione's lover a mystery until the end lent an unexpected suspense to the tale.  I'm completely awed that you could accomplish so much with so few words! 

Ah, what a twist! I am sure most were expecting her to be cheatin gon her husband WITH Severus, not cheating on her husband Severus.

Boy, that was the ending I wasn't ready for!  Good Job

Hmm, very interesting! I had completely different people pictured in my mind until you mentioned their names at the very end. So, I went back and read it again, and it was pretty amazing! Good job!

A great twist on the theme.  Really well done :)
