This was brilliant! I love how the story unfolded, and the reveal at the end about the bracelet & curse. I was baffled as to what was wrong with Hermione! The fact that Draco's feelings were revealed by the fact that he couldn't take off the bracelet was fantastic. Very very enjoyable read! Loved it!! :-)

Thank you! I do have a love for keeping readers baffled. :)

That was fantastic! Great idea with the band, and the reason for it attaching itself to Hermione; greater too was the reason for why Draco couldn't remove it. I thought it was going to turn into a twist where he wasn't a fully pure-blooded wizard, but this was far better! Creepy that it tried to kill Hermione to get away from her, but great that Draco was the one who saw and noticed her behaviour and could save her. Great story.

Thank you. I'm glad it was intriguing. :)

fascinating! i love the thought behind the gold and blaise vs draco regarding the pure-blood debate. for our pair's sake, i do worry about owing such a debt to blaise--he's unpredictable. ahaha, it's silly, but i giggled when mcgonagall caught them and gave them detention! i suppose it's a good thing that harry and ron can't give detention--although, come to think of it, they have even worse arsenal to deal with the likes of the slimy slytherin pawing at their best friend, LOL!

[mihnn]

Haha! Harry and Ron catching them would have been a bloodbath! But I'm glad it was fascinating. Exactly what I was going for. ;D

This was pretty awesome! Wish it had been longer, even. Well done! :)

[mihnn]

Thank you, bb. I'm glad you liked it. :D

It didn't occur to me until after I'd posted them, but both your story and xfsista's feature a bracelet -- you're clearly on the same wavelength! I loved the way you layered the mysteries in this -- why was Hermione trying to kill herself? why did she appear to have no idea that she was doing it? and (most of all) why did Draco ask Blaise to remove the bracelet? In the back of my mind, I thought it might be that if Draco removed it he wouldn't, for some reason, be able to have his ten/fifteen minutes, so I was pleasantly surprised by the blood purity explanation, because it set the scene for a deeper relationship between our couple!

It is pretty cool how xfsista and I both chose bracelets, hers only Draco could remove it while mine everyone but Draco could remove it. Definitely the same wavelength.

And thank you so much for that lovely banner. It's perfect for the story! :D
