Summary
From the moment Hermione burst back into Severus' life, he knew she had changed. No longer was she the girl who put her friends' needs above her own. No, she was a strong, exuberant woman with more than a hint of arrogance. Really, Severus couldn't help but to get sucked into her world, even as the marriage law loomed over their heads...
Hermione tried to be a good wife, she truly did. Still, no one understood her, not even her husband. Worse, the euphoria she'd developed had vanished into the wind, leaving her crushed by depression, struggling to find reasons to exist. She couldn't help but feel like she was a burden to all those around her, including the man she'd grown to care for...
Is Hermione and Severus' marriage doomed to fail, or can they find something deeper, something healthier and stronger than anyone could have imagined? Are they destined to remain two broken souls, or could healing come in the most unexpected of ways?
