Hermione was getting seriously bothered now. She stared down at the ring and tried to think of the last time she felt it’s presence on her finger – it was quite some time ago. She grabbed the ring softly with her fingers and pulled it, not expecting for anything to happen. To her utter surprise, the ring slid off her finger as if it was oiled, smoothly and without any magical resistance. Hermione glared at the ring in her palm, seeing it unattached to her for the first time since their "wedding" day.
