Draco Malfoy has changed sides. When he decides to leave Malfoy Manor, he needs help packing. While at the Manor, a surprise arrival changes everything. The warnings show abuse and violence, but I promise that nothing will be bad. It really is more of a romance, but the other stuff is necessary.

I've been posting on here for a while and have decided to update my profile. I'm 30ish... I have a husband... I have two daughters... and other various creatures living at my house. My real life consists of work, fanfiction (which sometimes supercedes work), and chasing after my teen and tween.

Ohhhh...definitely crying now!!! The whole veil thing was GREAT. And Pansy as Head of Slytherin???? YES...I LOVE IT!!! I'm sensing the need for a sequel since they'll all be back at Hogwarts. :)
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I'm not sure about a sequel. Tell me what you think after you read the epilogue. Maybe I can revisit this story with a couple of companion pieces.
I'm totally tearing up here! I'm about to read the epilogue...but I HATE HATE HATE for it to all end!!! This has been one of my top three stories of all time...I'm just loving it. And the wedding invitation? Oh my gosh, that was beautiful. (sniffs)On to the end...
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. I hope you like the epilogue. Then you can go read my WIP called Saving Grace. I will soon be writing a H/G story called Debt to No One. And then I have a funny one for Snape and Herm. Don't worry. I will venture back into the realm of Draco and Hermione at some point. They are also one of my favorite couples.
This was an AMAZING story! I absolutely ADORED it! and my name is Rebecca, lol, although I'm not a Potter
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much for posting. I'm glad you liked it. The name came to me at the exact time I was writing it. lol!!potterbrat
Ab fab! I love how the families are all friends now, yet the old farts still try to hold on to their preconceptions. Well done, very well done. I hope you'll be attacked... um, visited, that is, by another compelling plot bunny soon!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Wow! Thank you so much. And thank you for being such a loyal reviewer for this story. My plot bunny has bitten. I have an SS/HG one-shot, an SS/HG short story and a HP/GW one-shot in my head. So keep checking.potterbrat
ahhhh an excellent ending...... i love it when all the loose ends are tied up......really enjoyed the story.....looking forward to ur next fic....... whenever u write that....
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. My next one is in the works. Keep checking.
I loved that. Absolutely. Thank you.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Awe, you are so sweet. If you had any difficulty with the kids and who they belong to, you can check out the respose to a recent review. I broke it down. I'm working on my SS/HG, so don't give up on me. Thanks again for being so loyal.
*sniggers*
I *LOVE* this epilogue. Trying to keep who had which child or grandchild was a little difficult, but it was very funny. Great job!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. I knew when I wrote it that the kids would be kind of hard to keep up with. I think too much detail can be draining, so I wrote it the best I could. Here is a break down:Hermione/Draco = Violet & LucaHarry/Ginny = Abby & JamesRon/Pansy = PrewettFred/Gwen = IsabelleSeverus/Narcissa = Lily & AlbusLuna/Neville = FrankieSusan/Remus = Elizabeththe kids:Abby/AlbusJames/Lily = RebeccaViolet/Prewett = MollyI didn't name George's wife or the name of Neville and Luna's grandson.I hope this clears things up for you. I also hope I didn't screw it up.
Response from CharmedForce (Reviewer)
Okay good... I think that is what I figured it out to be as well. I'm glad you didn't include a detailed tree in the story. You gave enough information for all of this to be deduced, without overloading it. Well done!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
thanks!
What a charming, wonderful ending. I hope your muse bites again so I may have the pleasure of reading more of your work. I also offer condolences on the death of your grandmother.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
My muse muse is still nibbling at me for the SS/HG fic. I like to have a few chapters written before I put them up, so hopefully it won't be too long. I thank you for your condolences. My grandmother was 90-years-old, and survived 3 different kinds of cancer. I only got to be close to her in the last few years of her life, but they were wonderful years. Family is a blessing.Thank you again for your unfallable loyalty to this fic!potterbrat
Oh, how sweet. I love it.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. I'm writing the Epilogue right now, so wish me luck.
I love that Severus gets to have Lily as his daughter's name. It fits. Plus his daughter won't have the problem Abby would have.Just wondering... what does James look like?I now that it's been said... but I love the tribute to Hermione's father.Thanks for another great chappy.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you very much. I will have more on James in the Epilogue, which will be longer than the rest of the chapters. In most cases, they are shorter, but I have a lot of loose ends to tie up. Thanks so much for posting.
Awww what a beautiful tribute to her dad!
I look forward to reading the epilogue!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. I'm having some difficulty getting the Epilogue just right. It is very challenging.
I adore the idea that Harry and Ron are giving Hermione away! I think it's so sweet. Great idea and good chapter flow!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. I wanted to indulge the idea that Hermione wanted to have a "muggle" wedding without going into great detail. I thought that was the best way, and I was able to use Ron's loyalty in the process.
i cant wait for the next chapters!!!!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Welcome to my parlour. I'm glad you are enjoying this little fic. I will be able to write more next week.
OK. I can live with that, and even like Pansy a little. But which centaur should we feed her to anyway?
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I think Bane. He was kind of an ass. Get it -- ass. Oh, gosh, it's getting late and I'm getting delirious.
Oh wow, what an interesting Lesson about the bond from the house elf. I am glad that Draco and Harmione are still gonna go through with the wedding and happy for Ron and Pansy also. Update soon.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. I will update next week. I'll be out of town until Sunday.
Nice chapter. It was pretty cute, but be careful not to make Draco so nice. It's a little disconcerting at times.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Alas... my Draco is nice. He's a changed man, I tell ya! He's happy now. What can I say... I have a soft spot for him. Besides, He wasn't so nice to Nott. Thanks for the review.
YAY PANSY! hehehehe! Yay for everyone getting along... and Yay for helpful house-elves!Thanks for the update!~*~Selene~*~
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
You are so very welcome. Thank you so much for the review.potterbrat
Hi,Thanks for responding so quickly. That was sweet of you. I didn't realize you were on so late. (my lokal time 22:50) AW... He loves her! And she loves him!I think they are just perfect for each other. Hermione should go for a bloke with some intelligence and keep away from the likes like Ron. (Sorry, but he isn't her match intellectually)I'm looking forward to the next chapter. This was sweet and nice. Hugs Carmille
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
It isn't late here. It's only 3:53 p.m. (17:53) here. I'm at work for another 1/2 hour, then I'm off to my house. I totally agree with you about Ron. I adore him, but he belongs with someone like Pansy or Luna. I will probably have more next week. I'm off for the next few days and the only real chance I have to write is when I'm at work.
Oh I so loved it when Nott had his little 'talk' with Ron, Draco, Fred and George.... I really had a hard time wiping the grin off my face.What in the world do you mean they are not bound??? You have me utterly confused. Did the curse break when Lucius died?Hmm a really great chapter.Hugs Carmille
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you, my dear. Now, go read the next chapter so you can get your answer. It's already posted.
Great story, I'll be sad to see it end.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. I think I'll feel a bit sad as well. I love these characters so much. But that will just leave me room for a whole new adventure with them. I will finish writing my ss/hg, and then I'm going to do a little hp/gw. Even if you're not a big Harry/Ginny shipper, I do hope you'll read it. It will be a while, though, because I've got to read the 7th book first.
Response from sinbad (Reviewer)
No, that isn't my favored ship, but I will read the story. I have learned that I can be surprised and enjoy the story even if I'm not a particular fan of the ship. I think you did a good job on this story so I'd read other things you'd happen to write because of the good experiance with this story.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I appreciate that very much. I never cared much for HG/SS ships until I started reading some. Now they're one of my favorites. I'm like you, though. It all depends on how it's written. Cheers!potterbrat
wicked ending! you're pure evil to leave us hanging like that...! do you know how many more chapters this story is going to be?
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I know that I'm evil. I can't help myself. I happen to have another chapter in queue right now. There will be one (maybe two) and then the Epilogue. I will try to get everything in one more, but it might be complicated. We are very close to the end, though.pb
Can we kill Pansy off? Or feed her to the centaurs?
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Oh my God! I just choked on my toast. That is so funny. I wish I'd thought about that before. Maybe I'll write a one-shot and feed her to the centaurs.
Some people just have to spill the beans before the time. I don't think Pansy is causing trouble, I think she is trying to help in her own way. Nevertheless, I hope she has changed for the better and not for the worse especially if she is in love with Ron. Looking forward to another update.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
You are on the right track, CC. I am very proud of you. You shouldn't have to wait long for another chapter. It's already with my beta now. We are finally winding it down. I will have 1, maybe 2 chapters left and then an Epilogue.
Oh, crap. I just love it when when a 'friend' helps you out with useful 'information'. I suspect Hermione will have her knickers in a twist.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I think Hermione gets more aggravated when someone else has figured out something that she hasn't.
Aaah.... This is such a sweet chapter. I like a little fluff now and then.God work!Hugs Carmille
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Yeah -- me, too. Thank you.
