This was a heck of a lot better written than a lot of soul bond H/Hr fics I've read. That said I was a bit disappointed with the way you portrayed Hermione. As the story progressed she seemed to take much more of a back seat to Harry.

h. . Z

don't.

They should have expected the consummation of their marriage bond to be spectacular as well.

Sounds like a great week.

The Grangers are taking it pretty good.

Surprise, Mom and Dad! Look what followed me home!

I really like this story, it keep this 78 year old entertained.
I have probably read this story 3 or 4 times since I came across
it in 2020.

Overall this was an interesting take on the soulbond and Lord Potter tropes. I quite liked how most of the story focused on the relationship between Harry and Hermione, their family, allies, and politics. Unfortunately the ending almost felt like it went in a different direction with the chaos of the final battle. I honestly wasn't expecting Harry to challenge Voldemort to a duel but I really should have. I think the reason it felt a bit off was due to how sudden the idea presented itself. There wasn't much lead up just about a chapter or two before the battle happened then the aftermath and end. At any rate, the story was interesting and I did enjoy it.

I'm a bit confused. there have been a few mentions of Harry and Hermione going to pubs. Are the drinking laws different in the UK? Isn't Harry still 14 and Hermione 15?

This has an Interesting start, but I have a question, why on earth would two teenagers tell an old man all about their sudden feelings for each other in intimate detail in front of an audience?
Under Harry's immediate circumstances, I can't imagine why either of them would answer him the way they did. They certainly didn't owe him any such explanation into their personal feeling or actions!
On another note, wouldn't Hermoine be affronted by Silverstaff suggesting she might be taken as wife OR CONCUBINE? I can't imagine a muggle born not being either insulted and/or outraged at the insinuation.
As this is only the first chapter, perhaps the answers will be forthcoming.

your characters talk too much... it wouldn't really be a problem if it weren't for the fact that we already know about what they're talking about.

Being told something I already know, several times is tiring...

Enjoying the story so far though.

Happy to have found your story. Enjoyed reading it!
