    Summary

    It is five years after the war and Harry and Ginny are attempting to settle into married life. After not seeing each other for most of their marriage, they decide to take two weeks for a belated honeymoon in Wiltshire. During a hike, Ginny suddenly goes missing. She is transported to a place where the only one to talk to is Draco Malfoy, who just might unravel all her plans.

    Excerpt:
    She suddenly wanted to tell him that she had so many dreams. Their intertwined hands as they walked across cobblestone streets. Sinking her teeth into the first ripe apple of fall in her parents’ orchard. Lazy mornings covered in swaths of fog, blinking lantern lights against the blankets of cold and grey. Buying fresh flowers from a market in springtime. Wrapped in quilts, his body pressed against hers. Finally knowing what it felt like to be so intertwined with him that she forgot the beginning and end of herself. The deep inferno of blue, inky night with glittering stars. The lingering eternity in the constellations of love they weaved through space and time. She loved the light until she lived in the dark with him.

    “Tell me a secret,” she said, “one that is just for me.”

    “I love you,” he answered.

    Summary

    Peter lost a lot of things in Boston. When he lists them out, they fit in the margins of his napkin; his career, his degree, his motivation, his boyfriend, and himself. Not in that order. Not all by mistake.

    “You’re just a secretary.” Tony tuts.

    “There’s nothing wrong with being a secretary,” Peter says. “Your old secretary is the CEO of SI, these days.”

    “Pepper Potts is the smartest woman I’ve ever met,” Tony agrees. “And she never let anyone call her ‘just a secretary.’”

    Summary

    In the cave, Regulus doesn’t beg for it to stop. He begs not be left behind, alone.

    Perhaps this is why, when Kreacher gives one last look over his shoulder and sees terrible, pale hands reaching for his master, he appears in a flash at Regulus’ side, clutches him by the elbow, and Apparates them both out of the cave, directly disobeying his master’s last order.
