This was absolutely incredible. I'm speechless too! I'm in awe at just how good this is. It was such an enjoyable read and I didn't want it to end! Though I thought the way it did end was so lovely.
I love how Yaxley never hit her or harmed her, only ever really took care of her and tried to protect her. You could really feel how much he loved Rowena and how much he wanted children, and seeing his feelings grow for Hermione was heart-warming. I loved his nickname for her (and I usually hate them!).
Alfie was a brilliant character too. I loved the contrast between he and Yaxley, and how Yaxley was uncomfortable with Alfie's charming personality.
I loved reading the snippets from the Pureblood books, and Rowena's thoughts hidden in the one given to her and Hermione too. I thought the older wizards being traditionalists was very real for them, especially about the plait (and I loved how Theo, being younger, didn't want to do his hair like that at first). I had tears in my eyes when he asked Yaxley to plait his hair.
This is honestly one of the best fics I have ever read. It deserves so much praise; it really is absolutely amazing. You are one very talented writer! ♥
