I like this story.

But I think Hermione should confess - unless the concept that a slave class who can be indoctrinated or brainwashed to give exist.

A lot of the "perfect" idea are just ideas pushed by others for their own benefit to create their own ideal worlds.

I think maybe you should write a sequel in which Hermione confess and they get together, along with the heartbreak of Ron and Ginny.

I mean just look at what they did and DIDN'T do - including the Ginny's classic "you wouldn't be happy unless you are fighting him" for why Ginny doesn't really love Harry - he loves the hero.
