Devil Doesn't Bargain

Rate this book
"Rule number one: never assume you are safe."

During the hunt for horcruxes, a group of snatchers discovers the Golden Trio. In the squabble, the three friends are separated, and while Harry and Ron apparate away to safety, Hermione is taken to face the consequences at Malfoy Manor.

This is a dark AU where Hermione finds herself in a tough situation--swear fealty to the Dark Lord, or die. As much as she'd like to claim otherwise, Hermione is nothing if not self-preserving. When she makes the choice, it is an easy one.

Para quê reler ACOTAR, quando posso elevar a fasquia e ler uma Dramione Fic inspirada em ACOTAR?😏 (Foi sem querer, mas foi uma ótima surpresa)

Fight me all you want, but starting the fic with ”Rule number one: never assume you are safe." WAS HOT AF🥵

There’s something so addictive about War Dramione Fics! A angst, o trauma, o amor proibido, a Hermione a virar bue lethal, o Voldy a morrer no final. I love it!!!! NUNCA FALHA

”In the mirrors, there was a moment when I was screaming down the bond. I couldn't hear you. But I almost broke my toes kicking at the glass between us, trying to get you out.�
He studied her carefully. �I almost broke my hand.�
FEYRE AND RHYSAND WHO????

A Narcisa apareceu pouco, com pena minha, mas foi uma BADASS BITCH!!
A relação do Theo, da Pansy e do Draco é bue heartwarming. I love them!!!!

Sobre a batalha final, só tenho a dizer: Hermione lifted the axe and brought it down, severing the dark lord's head from his body.�
MOTHER É POUCO PARA DESCREVER A MULHER QUE A HERMIONE É!!!! 👑

Morally grey Hermione for the win!!!!

A única coisa razão pela qual eu não consegui desver que esta fic é uma realmente uma fic (como aconteceu com Manacled e S&M), é que se nota a inspiração que a autora tirou das outras fics: a Hermione virar Death Eater, as cenas de ACOTAR, o Theo ouvir Queen, eles criarem falsas pistas para o Voldy desconfiar e matar os seus próprios soldados, etc.

AMEI A FIC NA MESMA, mas esta notou-se que era uma fic, that’s all.

Seeing Hermione & Draco become a fearsome death eater double-agent duo that kicked ass during insane missions was darkly sexy.

“Just take it one day at a time; sometimes that’s all we can do. But don’t you dare let one hard day win. You’re stronger than that.�

Oh this was funnnn. I could see all or most of the ACOTAR references and it was fun to catch them. It was also fun cause I love acotar and it was maybe more fun to read that story with my all time favorite couple.
Theo was a gem as per usual I love him with my whole heart in every universe. It was weird that his father was nice though.
The narcissa thing was an interesting take and I thought it was clever. Same with the prison, that was done really well and creative.
Anyways I giggled so many times for such a dark story and I love a bad ass hermione. And I love even more a bad ass hermione and Draco team up moment.

Oh how I love the dark Hermione trope and I eat it up each time. I found this fic randomly off of Pinterest and being quite a fan of the War AUs with the whole spying trope, this book demanded to be read. And then I read the tags one of which included and I quote, "Theodore Nott is a delight" gurl you had me sold right there. It was such an intense book ugh I loved it. Death Eater Hermione was not something I thought I needed. I mostly love that the book was very plot based, I really like it when the romance is a side plot and I loved that this book served that plus no smut like some authors are just love 😚.
Clean books with intense as hell plots and to die for romances 🤌🏻🤌🏻🤌🏻.

3.5/5 ⭐️
0.5/5 🌶�

Content warnings: lots of torture, tons of murder, imprisonment, war, etc.

This was good. I liked the concept of this a lot, but there were a lot of errors in it and I just found myself not that excited to read it. I always love a dark Hermione story though. It’s not that long (141k words), so I definitely think it’s worth a read. The M rating is definitely for the violence, not for spice.
