    Dark Lady Granger

    So I'm searching for good fics which center around a Hermione on her way to being crowned the next Dark Lady. She doesn't need to be known as a dark lady or even be interested in the title though, a Hermione who's charmingly amoral would work, as would one with an interest in the dark arts. You get the picture. Thanks in advance.
