In some fanfiction, this could happen due to a power play. Maybe Draco's family still has some influence and he uses it to force Harry. It could also be a result of a misunderstanding or a dark plot twist where Draco believes he has no other choice to get what he wants.
I really like 'Fate's Forced Hand: Harry and Draco'. This fanfiction delves deep into the magical laws that force them to marry. It's not just about their relationship but also about how the wizarding community reacts. The author does a great job of showing Harry's confusion and Draco's pride as they are thrust into this situation. They slowly learn to co - exist and eventually find some sort of understanding and even a bit of love in the midst of all the chaos.
One way this plot could develop is through a political or family power play. In the wizarding world, marriages are sometimes used to strengthen alliances. Maybe the Malfoy family and some powerful wizarding families or political forces force the situation. Harry, being female in this fanfic, might initially resist but then gradually find some unexpected common ground with Draco as she gets to know him better in this forced situation.
She would probably be furious at first. Harry is known for her strong will, and being forced into a marriage, especially with Draco, would go against everything she believes in. She might try to fight it directly, using her magic skills to break free from whatever is forcing this marriage.
Some writers choose this plot because it creates a lot of drama. Harry and Draco are from rival houses at Hogwarts, so forcing them into a marriage is a huge contrast to their previous relationship. It also allows for a lot of character development as they have to overcome their differences.
Well, a big theme is resistance. Hermione doesn't just accept the forced marriage easily. She fights against it in different ways, whether it's through magic or her wits. And there's the theme of unexpected love. Even though they start off in a bad situation, over time, they might develop feelings for each other. Also, there's the theme of social class conflict. Hermione being a Muggle - born and Draco a pure - blood, their union challenges the norms of the wizarding world, and this is often explored in these fanfictions.
I really liked 'The Forced Marriage Plot'. It shows Hermione's struggle with her values as she's forced to be with Draco. The story does a great job of portraying her inner turmoil. And then there's 'Draco's Unwanted Bride'. It's interesting because it shows how Draco also has his own issues with this forced union. He's not just a one - dimensional villain in this scenario. 'Marriage by Force' is another one where the author plays with the magical laws that force Hermione into this marriage, and how she tries to find loopholes.
There are indeed such fanfictions. Some explore really interesting concepts within this odd scenario. For example, in some stories, the forced marriage is a part of a dark plot by Voldemort to gain more power over the wizarding world through Harry. Others might focus on how Harry copes with this situation and tries to find a way out while also dealing with his complex feelings towards Voldemort. It's a very unique concept that can lead to some very creative storytelling.
Yes, there are some fanfictions with this rather strange premise. You can often find them on various fanfiction websites like Archive of Our Own (AO3). Just search for the relevant tags.
One reason could be for the sake of exploring different relationship dynamics. Fans want to see how Harry would react in a situation that is completely out of his control, like a forced marriage. It adds a new layer of drama to his character.
