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.

Author's Response:
That is the response I was hoping for. Thank you so much for posting.
oh i love it!!!! please post the new chapters soon PLEASE!!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I'm going to try and write them today. I really appreciate your comments.
Welcome back! *grins*Enjoyable chapter especially Hermione and Draco 'waiting' it's a nice notion which too many ignore.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I completely agree with you. I am trying to symbolize their mutual respect for one another. I don't want them to decide they'll just get on with it just because they already have. I believe it gives them a fresh start and they can get there on their own terms.
You made me tear up. I can't wait for the wedding.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
YAY!!! I love tears. LOL!! The wedding is the next chapter, and I really am looking forward to the Epilogue. I've had it in my head since this story began, and I think everyone will like it.
Great story!Made me laugh and...feel sad. Loved the epilogue!!<3 MQ
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you. I'm glad you liked it.
"You already have me."AWWWW!!! So cute!Things I love about this chapter; Narcissa's annoucement; Ginny's final words; The new Malfoy family's start; and finally Harry and Narcissa as a team.Thanks for sharing!~*~Selene~*~PS: Sorry for the long wait for a review I had bit of a vacation up to the northen part of Wisconsin.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I'm even more sorry for how long it took to get this chapter out. I had vacation in Ireland, and this week, my co-worker is out of the office, so I have to do her job instead of writing my story. So unfair. I have 1/2 of the next chapter written, so hopefully it'll be up soon. I had to do a lot of rewriting because I had the story finished, but some changes in the plot along the way, changed the last few chapters. Thank for not forgetting about me.pb
Now we just get Pansy off their back, and all is good. Lovely chapter.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Thank you so much. That Pansy is such a pain. She will be have a staring role inthe next chapter.
This was a relaxing chapter and I enjoyed reading it. Update soon.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I hope to update this week. I'm glad you liked it.
awww sweet, I hope pansy doesn't give out too much grief *evil grin.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Oh, that Pansy is a real piece of work. She'll be featured in my next chapter.
I thought the chapter was well done. It explained how things happened. I happy Draco is the father.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Welcome to my Parlour... thank you so much for reading and reviewing. It really does make me want to write more.
That was disturbing, but I'm glad you wrote it that way, and not as an Imperius-driven rape.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I believe Hermione has suffered enough. I promised I'd be nice to her from now on and I will.
Another fab chapter! I am delighted with the way you show Lucius 'getting it' and vowing to make it as right as he can. I'm similarly glad that Draco is, indeed, Violet's father. A real relief and blessing for her parents!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Oh, I think Lucius GOT it alright. Poor thing. I have a bit of writer's block, but I should have a new chapter next week. Then after that, I'm going to Ireland for a week and hopefully I'll have lots of new material when I come home.
Hrm... well I am not happy that Draco and Hermione had to go thru this... I am happy that she consented and he tried to be gentle. I believe they will be ackward after all of this but not destroyed. Thanks for taking the time to make the memories/event less horrible.I think Violet is a lucky child... she will have tons that love her... fans included! hehehe.I can't wait for the aftermath of the memories... but wait I shall.Thanks for conclusion of the rape/bond happening.

Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
Like I said in the A/N -- this was very difficult chapter. My story is rated R and I didn't want to venture into the NC-17 area of fandom. It had to be something that D/H could live through and suffer together without tearing them apart. Thanks for the kind words, and I'm glad you are safely back to reading and reviewing where you belong:)
Ohh... poor Draco... to have figured that out without his memories. I hope Hermione and him get some peace from this mess soon. I think that the house near Hogwarts was a nice touch. You could make a whole story on Narcissa's life in that house during Draco's school years. HEHEHE. Maybe she could sneak up to the school for Slytherin games and big events in the HP series... oh oh she could be there when Hermione slaps Draco.Well... I am off to read the next chapter... I am really glad I got back from my trip after the next chapter was posted... I would have hated this end otherwise.Thanks for the chapters!~*~Selene~*~
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
You have given me a GREAT idea. I will ponder a companion piece to this story. I just might do that.
Wow, after all this time, Draco is the father of Violet. The chapter was not bad at all and Draco really didn't rape Harmione so he has nothing to worry about. After all, Harmione encouraged to go through with it because if he didn't he would have been placed under the Imperius Curse which would have been worse. Update soon
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I was so worried about this chapter. I haven't gotten as much response for this one or the last one that I thought I would, but maybe I will have more luck with the next one. I appreciate your loyalty...
this is brilliant.... the whole story is excellent and have really enjoyed it so far.... but this portion where the entire revelation lies hs been written really well!!!!!!!! loved it... please update soon.. this is one my favortite stories!!!!!!!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I am all of a flutter! I'm so glad that you like this story. I have been wanting to write a fanfic for about 2 years, and one finally popped into my head. I love writing this one, and I should have it finished in about 5 or 6 more chapters. If you like HG/SS fics, you should check out "Better than me." It's a One-shot I wrote about a month ago. Thank you, again, for your sweet review.
I know exactly how you feel, great chapter . Mom wants me to tell a story about the Centuar who shared the divination job with Trawleny. God help me lol. Any suggestions?
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
LOL!! That would be fantastic. It should be a story of unrequited love because, she's so weird and he has hooves. They love each other from afar, but they can never be together because of the mechanics.
Response from sinbad (Reviewer)
Are you suggesting Luny Lovegood?
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
That would be quite Luny, wouldn't it? I can see it now: "Sybil, I don't know how to tell you this but, I love you.""What? But you're a horse! I'm sorry, but it just wouldn't work. I mean, imagine what our children would look like."CLASSIC!! LOL!
Oh My. And all along I thought it was Lucius that raped her. Well, maybe he was under the imperius curse by his father. I know Harmione will be devastated. Update soon.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I just got an email from my beta telling me that she's finished with chapter 21. I will upload it today, and hopefully it will be up soon.
You better explain this - the eye color and birthmark. It's not genetically possible - unless Draco is the father of Violet.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
AH!! A brand new reviewer. Welcome to my parlour... I am uploading my next chapter today. You are not the only one who thinks I have some splanin' to do. You shall see!
Poor Draco. But that idea of Draco and Harry in the cribs as babies with Draco sucking on Harry's fist is one of the most adorable images I've ever read.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I couldn't help myself... I think they could have been great friends.
I adored the baby story, and I was surprised that Hermione was raped by Draco. I hope you reveal the how's and why's this was truely a interesting and unexpected twist.
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I'm glad I was able to throw something at you that you didn't expect. The next chapter is CRAZY!! It's with my beta now. Stay tuned.
Well, that's a fine kettle of fish! Can hardly wait to read your explanation of THAT!
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
You shouldn't have to wait too long. I have chapter 21 with my beta now. In the meantime, I'm going to ponder a kettle of fish. HMMMM?
This would sound so awful out of context but I thought for sure it was Draco who got Hermione pregnant and I am totally thankful it wasn't Lucius!
And yay for an update! I was just checking my stories to see if I had missed one...
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
I feel absolutely horrible that I couldn't get an update to you guys sooner. Good news, though, I have already sent the next chapter to my beta, so hopefully this week there will be yet another. Thanks so much for reading and reviewing.
A mixed up yet determined Hermione... oh that is never good! I'm betting Harry or Ron was the lone figure. ~shrugs~ I loved that you didn't leave Draco and Hermione in a peaceful state... with their personalities there is bound to be conflict until they both truely trust each other... that's the hard part.I love that Snape gets to randomly save the day! hehehehe!Great Chapter!~*~Selene~*~
Response from potterbrat (Author of Broken)
FINALLY!!! I have been able to foil you! I won't tell you how, but I did. You'll find out in the next chapter, which is in queue. I just love Snape!
