On that small side note, I do sometimes wish that I owned Narcissa Malfoy and Bellatrix Lestrange oh and let's not forget dear know-it-all, Hermione Granger. I would love to bend and mold them into my perfect little pawns, but alas I can not so on with the story.

The Protector

Chapter 1 - Thine Iciness is Brought

Narcissa Black was brought up to be a respectable pureblood witch who would bow down to her husbands every whim. Should she speak out of term he would have the power to discipline her any which way he pleased. Should she not perform well he would punish her however he pleased.

On this particular night Narcissa Black lay in the middle of her father's study, her fourteen year old body having been badly beaten and mutilated. Her father's last torture curse was only just beginning to wear off as readjusted himself on his chair behind his desk. Calling her name with a sadistic smile he beckoned her over to where he sat. After further degrading done to her by the man that should protect her he had then backhanded so hard she had fallen to the ground with a loud thump.

She was crying and had blood seeping out of her nose and mouth. Her head was pounding from when she hit the floor. Getting up after her father told her to leave she stumbled out of his study and back to her bedroom. She tripped on her way into her bathroom, but managed to steady herself in time for her stomach to empty itself into her toilet.

This is where her older sister, Andromeda, found her the following morning. "Cissa, are you alright?" Narcissa's answer was to shack her head and heave into the toilet for the third time since the incident with their father.

"He did it again didn't he?" She nodded her head and fell into Andromeda's open arms.


You see all three of the Black sister's had been molested by their father. He was a spiteful man, when he wanted something he got it, and when he didn't get it, he killed for it. This of course was why Bellatrix Black went a little nutty in the head. Why Andromeda ran away from home and why Narcissa became known as 'The-Ice-Queen'.

Narcissa had endured more abuse over the years until she was married off to Lucius Malfoy, prat arse of Slytherin and total bastard in general. Not even a year into her marriage and she had fallen pregnant with her now three year old son, Draco Romulus Malfoy. She had another son a year after Draco was born and had named him Pollux Arcturus Abraxas Malfoy; he was now two years old.

Narcissa had not wanted another child, but he had become her favourite son out of the two. He had her blue eyes and nose, Lucius' chin and jaw line and finally he had the same hair colour has she did, dark brown mixed in with white blond. To her he was the most beautiful child in the world, a perfect mix between the Black family's gorgeous looks and the Malfoy family's handsomeness.

She sat at the dinning room table when a little hand grabbed her dress and tugged on it. A small child's voice squealed when she picked him up. Nothing anyone did could melt the ice in her eyes and the glaciers in her heart save for the beautiful child she now held in her arms.

"Hello, my beautiful son." He grinned a toothless grin and gave a giggle when she lifted him into the air and swung him around gently. She lowered him and then lifted him again causing even more giggles to escape his mouth. A strangled cry sounded near the stairs and her motherly instincts kicked in making her run toward the staircase. Their lying at the bottom of the stairs lay a motionless Draco his small dragon toy lying a few inches away from him. She put Pollux down and lifted Draco into her arms.

"Lucius!" She cried. Her husband came sprinting from behind the stairs and into view.

"What is it Narcissa?" He spotted Draco and instantly grabbed him from her arms and rushing toward the fireplace in the drawing room from which he had just exited. Picking Pollux up she rushed into the room just in time to see Lucius disappear in the green flames. Grabbing some floo powder she threw it into the fireplace and stepped into it.

"St. Mungo's" With a whoosh she along with Pollux were taken away from Malfoy Manor.


Arriving to the sounds of many voices echoing around her she soon located her husband and first born. "I don't care how bloody busy you are, my son could be dying!" she heard Lucius hiss.

"I'm sorry Mr Malfoy, but you will just have to wait." He turned around and spotted her.

"Why weren't you watching him? Where in the bloody hell were you?" He snarled at her.

Cowering slightly from the tone of voice she replied. "I was eating breakfast when Pollux tugged on my dress, I was just playing with him when I heard Draco's cry. I rushed to him and you know the rest." He glared at her, raised his hand and gave her, an almighty slap to the face, looking around to make sure that no one had seen anything, he was satisfied that they were all too busy to notice what he had done.

"You will keep Draco with you at all times until he is six and then he will be left with an elf. Do you understand?" she nodded. "Yes Lucius." He smirked and settled into his chair.

About ten minutes later a Medi-Wizard came up to them, "Mr Malfoy?" Lucius stood and followed the Medi-Wizard into a room. The Medi-Wizard examined Draco room head to toe at the instance of Lucius, finding that the boy had merely knocked himself out. A quick rennervate and Draco woke up. He gave his father a smile that contained five baby teeth. Lucius crooned into Draco's ear and the little boy giggles with glee, giving his father's hair a slight tug.

"Enough Draco, my hair is not a play toy." Lucius scolded lightly causing the boy to pout. Narcissa watched with a small sneer as Lucius molly coddled Draco to the point that it made her start to resent the little brat. Pollux began to squirm in her arms and she shushed him following closely behind Lucius as he walked down the white walled passage to the floo network.

Once home she settled Pollux into his bed and left the small enchanted Hippogriff's to fly circles around it. She went to fetch her eldest son and found that he had fallen asleep in the study while his father worked on some documents.

"I'm taking Draco to bed Lucius, and then I'll be up in our room taking a bath." He nodded waving his hand in a dismissive way. She took Draco and carried him up the stairs to his room; placing him in his bed she enchanted the Dragons to fly circles around it as well. Leaving the room she walked up another flight of stairs until she reached hers and Lucius' room.

She opened the door into their bathroom and flicked her wand to get the water started as she stripped from her robes. Glancing at herself in the long floor length mirror she studied all the old scars her father had left on her back and all the new ones Lucius had left on her stomach and hips. Sighing softly to herself she turned away from the mirror and stepped into the Victorian styled bath tub.

Immersing herself in the Honeysuckle and Rose scented bubbles, letting the smell consume her entire being she let her mind go blank and she let mask she wore slip from her beautiful and aristocratic face.

She had built her ice and fire walls in her mind and steeled them over with acid and then let the flesh eating water fill the moat she had on the other side of these walls in her mind as another means to protect her inner most part of her mind. Her thoughts, memory's and knowledge were all compartmentalized behind 20 of the most dangerous protective walls. She constantly reconstructed and added more to the protections until her mind was even more protected than Severus Snape, Albus Dumbledore and The Dark Lord's minds.

After reapplying her walls and other means of protection she opened her sapphire blue eyes. She washed herself and then washed her hair, rinsing off she stood and summoned her bath towel. Wrapping the plush blue towel around her body she walked out into the bedroom once more.

Dressing in her light pink night dress she sat down at her dressing table and picked up her sister's hairbrush the one she had borrowed and never got to return to her, the very same sister who had been disowned by her parents.

It was Sterling Silver with Black onyx jewels running along the outline of the brush itself. It had the letters, B-L-A-C-K, engraved with Sapphire stones on the handle and in the main part of the brush was a perfect portrait of her sisters Andromeda and Bellatrix and herself. She loved the hair brush more than anything and she would be very upset if anything ever happened to it. Laying it down in its special space she smiled softly to herself.

She would never admit it out loud but she missed Andromeda more than anything in the world. She stood up and walked over to her bedroom door opening it so that Lucius knew she was in bed she walked over to her side of the large four poster bed. Pulling the covers back she climbed into the warm bed and grabbed the book she had been reading the night before.

It wasn't long after that the book slipped from her fingertips landing on the fluffy rug that lay under the bed with a muted thump. Her body in the position facing the bay windows, one arm under her head and the other hanging over the side of the bed, her hair splayed out behind her. This is how Lucius found her when he eventually made it to bed after checking on his sons. Pulling the duvet that had fallen around Narcissa's waist up to cover not only himself but her as well, he closed his silvery eyes and was sucked into sleep.


The following morning Narcissa woke up with the sun shinning on her face and part of her body. She stretched out in the bed and then yawned. Standing up she padded over to the bathroom to relieve herself. Once done she washed her hands and walked out across the room to her wardrobe she pulled out a silver and black dress and black cloak.

She once again sat at her dressing table to brush her hair, running her brush through her hair she untangled the small knots that had formed while she had slept. Placing the brush back into its rightful place she left her room and collected her sons for breakfast. Lucius had gone to work much earlier in the morning so it was just her and the boys.

Pollux was fed by an elf and Draco fed himself and watched as Narcissa picked up her fork and knife, plunging the fork into her eggs she pulled it up and toward her mouth. Draco then copied what she had just done and found that he liked how she ate. Every time she ate he would be seen copying all her mannerisms, when she wiped her mouth he did too. She spotted him out the corner of her eye and smiled softly to him, he smiled widely back at her in return.

Deciding to let the boy's play with an elf that had pestered Lucius that morning she sat outside and watched as they chased it around a small pen until it squeaked and disapparated. The boys giggled and decided to chase the Albino Peacocks around for a bit.

"Mummy! Mummy lookie whats I gots Mummy!" Draco shouted holding a large white and blue eyed feather that had come from the tail of the Peacock that was now squawking disgustedly at Draco.

"Pwetty! Pwetty Dwaco! Want won, want won!" Pollux practically screamed from besides Draco. Draco looked to Narcissa and then looked at another Peacock. He snuck up behind one before plucking yet another tail feather out of yet another disgruntled Peacock.

"Here Pollux." Draco handed the feather to Pollux and the little boy giggled in excitement and grinned at his mother. His beautifully sparkling blue eyes lighting up even more as his mother smiled openly back at him. She watched as he ran inside and came back outside with a piece of parchment and a quill.

He scribbled a picture of four stick figures and two Peacock feathers lying by his mother's feet. Asking Draco to help him write their names above each stick figure he pointed too. Giving it to his mother he pointed to all four figures and told her they were. "Is Dada, is Dwaco, is me and is you Mummy, pwetty Mummy." Pollux then ran around with Draco after handing her his feather and Draco's. She smiled down at the picture and with a flick of her wand she sent it to her room.

"Draco, Pollux. Come boys it's lunch time." Her sons ran toward her and followed her inside. Sitting at the table they ate their soup, Pollux insisting that he could do it himself. Narcissa smiled at her boys. They finished and she led them to the library to get them started on their letters in both English and Latin. She wanted them both fluent in Latin by the time their letters for school arrived.

Eventually they finished and she led back to the dinning hall for supper. Lucius arrived home just soon as they sat down, all four Malfoy's sat to eat. Pollux was bouncing in his seat and Lucius noticed this, snapping at the boy.

"What the blasted hell are you bouncing for boy?" Pollux instantly stopped bouncing.

"Lucius must you?" Narcissa asked softly.

"Narcissa silence. Pollux what is it that you must say?" Lucius spat.

"Was eating awone today Dada, no elf help." He smiled. Lucius looked at Narcissa with a withering glare.

"When in Merlin's name are you going to teach that boy how to speak decently?" He shouted. Pollux ran to his mother's side and jumped into her lap.

"No showt at Mummy! No showt!" he yelled. Glaring at his father as only a two year old child could. Lucius backhanded him and the little child fell to the floor with a cry of fright. Draco stared wide eyed at his father with fear shinning in his grey eyes.

"Lucius!" Narcissa shouted forgetting her place. She felt him slap her hard across the cheek and she felt where his ring had cut her. She got up from the table, grabbed Pollux and walked as fast she could up the stairs to her bedroom and walked straight into her bathroom.

She saw the small gash and the blood as it seeped from between the broken flesh. Flicking her wand she healed the wound and cleaned the blood. Checking for any injuries on Pollux she let out a sigh of relief when she found none. He hugged her neck and kissed her cheek before burying his head in the crook between her shoulder and jaw. She felt the wetness as it seeped into the material of her dress.

He was crying and all she could do was rub his back and kiss his head, telling him everything would be alright. Taking Pollux to his bed she settled him in and kissed him goodnight. Walking over to Draco's room she found him sitting on the chair that sat in front of his large bay windows.

"Draco, why are you still awake?" He looked up and then stood. He walked over to his bed and climbed up. Narcissa pulled the duvet away and let him snuggle into his comfortable spot before she covered him. Kissing his forehead she told him goodnight and left the room.

Walking up the stairs once again she strode into hers and Lucius' room and in an instant she felt magic tingle at her toes as a silencing charm was set in place and the first of many lashings were given by her husband for her insolence.

"You will never speak to me that way again!" he shouted as he whipped her over and over. He placed her under the Cruciatus Curse for a minute or two and finally let her go. She lay in bed that night lying as still as possible so as to not disturb him from his slumber. After an hour or so she finally succumbed to her sleepy state and her eyes shut.


7 Years Later…

Draco was now 10 and Pollux was 9 and both boys had grown a little apart over the years. Draco had become his father's double and Pollux his mother's double. Draco was an arrogant little prat while Pollux was a care free and well mannered gentleman.

Pollux had been blessed with the gift of art and had drawn many pictures of his family. He loved both his brother and father deeply, but his love for his mother was much deeper than any other. After having kept his Peacock feather from seven years ago, he had subsequently duplicated the feather a few times and had been able to magically create the perfect image of his mother including the sapphire blue eyes that belonged to her as well as him.

His mother had shed a few tears at the sheer perfection that he had created and had taken the framed image and had magically stuck it to the wall in her room. His father and his mother now slept in different rooms, so she had hung the image on the wall behind her bed; of course it covered the wall nicely as it was quite large.

Draco had not been gifted with anything too special. Pollux was a natural Occlumens, Narcissa of course had past this gene onto him and he had nearly the exact same as Narcissa's. Draco was not so lucky; his mind was as open as his father's. Lucius of course had stopped beating and abusing Narcissa when Draco turned six and she was naturally relieved of course.

"Mum! Mum, come down here quick." She heard Pollux's voice echoing around her. Draco had gone to work with Lucius and had left Pollux at home. Not many people knew a lot of Pollux, but they did know of his natural affinity to magic.

"What is it my love?" She turned the corner and found him standing at the front door. He was looking at her with a smile and his eyes twinkling.

"Come on quickly, I'm not sure how long it will last." She quickened her pace and looked outside and spotted all the Peacocks standing in a weird way and had formed the letters of her initials, Narcissa-Elladora-Cassiopeia-Malfoy, and the Peahens had formed the words 'Happy Birthday' below the Peacocks.

"Oh Pollux, that was so kind of you, thank you my son!" She kissed his forehead and hugged him.

"Happy Birthday mum!" He presented her with a small box and when she opened it she was surprised to see a beautifully carved white gold necklace with round Diamonds forming tear drops and pear shaped Sapphires in a foxtail design. She was even more surprised when she placed it around her neck and felt it became feather light.

"It will feel as though it isn't even there, I asked the sales man to add in some protective enchantments for all types of weather changes and to protect you from the usual harmful spell. I have one more gift that has been enchanted to protect your from Veritaserum, it will never be able to be taken off by anyone other than yourself. Your necklace included." He then reached into his pocket and brought a matching bracelet.

"Thank you darling, they really are beautiful."

Later on in the day Lucius returned with Draco, they both kissed Narcissa's cheek and said Happy Birthday to her handing her their gifts. Draco had bought her a set of quills that had her name engraved upon their silver casing, the Malfoy family crest was on one and the Black family crest on the other. The quills were made using the tail feathers of a Sharp-Shinned Hawk.

She thanked him and kissed his forehead, Lucius had given her a new dark grey dress and a black travelling cloak with silver trimming. Thanking him she walked up to her room, placing the dress and cloak into her wardrobe she put the quills on her dressing table. They really were lovely and she appreciated them very much. Going down for supper she sat in her usual seat and waited for Lucius to arrive.

"Ah, Narcissa, we are having guests tonight, I trust your remember the Parkinson's?" She nodded and he continued. "Clarice Zabini is joining us as well along with her son Blaise. Theodore is coming with the Zabini's so at least both boys will have their friends." Narcissa nodded.

"The children will stay for three days. Draco, Pollux, you will both be on your best behaviour, understand." The boy's nodded. The sound of the fireplaces coming to life interrupted Lucius. He left to collect his guests and the elves brought in the extra food.

"Good evening, Clarice, Prudence and Pansy." They said their hello's to Narcissa. "Good evening to you as well Narcissa." Clarice said. "Good evening, Sebastian, Blaise and Theodore." Nodding and bowing their heads in greeting, they all sat down after all the formalities were done with.

Pansy sat next to Prudence, while Blaise sat next to Draco and Theodore next to Pollux. After an enjoyable evening the adults retired to their separate places. Narcissa, Prudence and Clarice sat in Narcissa's drawing room while Lucius and Sebastian sat in the parlour. Blaise, Pansy and Draco were playing a game of exploding snap while Theodore and Pollux played wizard's chess, until they all eventually fell asleep where they sat. Not even the adults wanted to move the children so they left them as they were.


The next morning saw Draco and Theodore playing with a snitch while Pollux sat below the window seat doing his daily stretches, Blaise watching with curiosity and Pansy watching Draco and Theodore.

"Hey Pollux, what are you doing?" Blaise finally asked.

"Just my morning stretches." Contorting his body so that his head was leaning on his knees while his hands touched the floor, he waited for the inevitable question and wasn't disappointed.

"What are you stretching for?" Smiling to himself he lifted up and looked at his friend.

"I stretch because I am on my way to becoming a well muscled and toned young man. I have the height so why not have the muscles to go with it, besides I like to keep fit." Blaise looked at him and then at Draco. He could see the difference and it was quite a big one too.

Pollux was the younger of the two, but he was the tallest. He was already starting to build muscle where as Draco was just like a normal boy his age. He stood at Pollux's chin in height and still had the baby fat around his face unlike Pollux who had no fat anywhere. Nodding he turned back to Pollux and watched as the boy did some crunches.

Later on in the morning, all the occupants in the house were at the dinning table eating their breakfast. "Draco, where do you wish to go for your birthday? Your friends are here until the day after and I need to get everything together." Narcissa said.

Draco looked up still chewing on a piece of bacon. "I don't know mother, I heard there was a quidditch match with the Chudley Canons and Kenmare Kestrels. Could we go see it?" Lucius having heard this looked at his son.

"Well it just so happens that I have tickets for all of you, so be ready early tomorrow morning and we can leave by seven." Finishing with breakfast the boys left to play some quidditch outside and Pansy sat in the shade of a large Oak tree watching as they all fought over who would be which player.

In the end Draco was a chaser, Blaise was keeper, Theodore and Pollux were chasers as well. They played a friendly game, Blaise and Draco on one team while Pollux and Theodore were on the other. Pollux and Theodore won two out five matches and when Blaise and Pollux swopped teams Pollux and Draco won four out of five matches. Taking a break to eat lunch the boys and Pansy sat down near the lake under another Oak tree.

Waiting for their food to settle they went back up to the Manor to change into their swimming attire, once more meeting at the Lake. Draco and Pollux dove into the lake after running down the small embankment, Pansy chose to get in slowly while Blaise and Theodore raced each other to see who would get there first, of course Theodore got there just seconds before Blaise, but wasn't prepared for his friends forceful push that him flying into the lake with a giant splash and the laughter of his friends.

Coming up for air he shouted at Blaise earning more laughs. "You prat arse!" Pollux was clutching his sides in the water and laughing uncontrollably. Pansy was laughing just has hard as Blaise much to the embarrassment of Theodore.

Swimming for most of the afternoon the children were called in by a house elf to get ready for dinner. They all dragged their feet not really wanting to go inside, they grudgingly trudged up the stairs to change and get ready for dinner.

Of course not everything can be perfect like Narcissa wanted it to be with the boys and Pansy as they were making their way down the stairs Draco tripped Blaise which caused him to fall into Pansy at an angle. Pansy losing her footing put her hands out to stop herself from falling over completely, landed up knocking into both Pollux and Theodore. Both boys fell with the force landing in a heap at the bottom of the stairs.

Pollux knew it was Draco who started the whole pushing people thing got up and slugged him one right in the nose, an audible crack echoed around them as his nose broke in four places from the shear force of the blow. He fell flat on his backside and grabbed at his now freely bleeding and broken nose.

"You idiot!" Draco shouted trying in vain to grab at Pollux, but with blurry vision he couldn't quite get his hands on his brother.

"What in the world is going on here?" Narcissa asked coming around the corner.

"What… Draco! What happened to your nose?" She shrieked. His face had started to swell and a light purple shade had spread itself under both his eyes. His nose was still bleeding and all the blood had covered his chin, neck and most of his shirt. Rushing toward him Narcissa brought her wand out and started fixing him up. After healing him she then cleaned him up as best as she could.

Pollux only just realising his massive mistake looked toward Draco in fear, he knew that should his brother mention this to his father both his mother and himself would be on the receiving end of Lucius' rage. Narcissa too had realised the mistake her son had just made and got to fixing the bruises and swelling on Draco's face.

After a few minutes he looked much different than before but there was nothing she could do about the broken blood vessels in his eyes or the still rapidly darkening shade of purple under his eyes.

"I want all of you in the dinning hall, everyone except Pollux." They all nodded and started leaving; Draco was glaring at his brother all the way until he disappeared around the corner.

"Pollux, darling you do realise you have just put us both in a very severe predicament right? If I can not calm Draco down you know the consequences, your father will punish us both." Pollux nodded and involuntarily shuddered at the thought.

"I'm so sorry mum. I wasn't thinking, it was just a reflex. I'll tell father I'll take all of your punishment, I promise." Narcissa reached her son and took his shoulders.

"No! Merlin no! Pollux you will not do that. I will not have you beaten, please just don't anger your father anymore than necessary, please!" She begged him. Many emotions running through her water blue eyes. "Alright mum, I won't" she hugged him and then pushed him toward the dinning hall, following soon after.


Of course not everything was easy in life. Pollux and Narcissa Malfoy knew this by experience yet Draco didn't. He was his father's first born, he was his father's heir and there was nothing anyone could do to change that. After everyone had been dismissed, Lucius called Pollux into his study and had him sit down.

"Pollux, what are we?" Pollux swallowed. "Where are wizards" Nodding he put his hands behind his back and looked out of one of the windows.

"That is right and what blood runs through our veins?" Looking at his son out the corner of his eyes he waited. "The blood of Morgana, father." Reaching up and taking down a book he looked at it before opening it to a certain page.

"How pure is this blood?" Turning the page he read a bit of the contents while waiting for Pollux's answer.

"It is very pure, father, as pure as the blood that runs through the veins of The House of Black." Thrusting the book at his son he told him to read the page aloud.

"It is believed that any and all wizards and witches that have been bred by Morgana Le Fay have the most purist of blood known to wizard kind. There is only one family that is known to have the blood of Morgana running through their veins, the Malfoy family.

There is said to be a family that has even purer blood to those of the Malfoy's and they are The Most Ancient and Noble House of Black. The blood that ran through the veins belonging to the Peverell brother's is said to run through the veins of every Black family member known to wizard kind.

As of now the current head of Malfoy house is one Lucius Abraxas Malfoy. The current head of The Most Ancient and Noble House of Black is one Sirius Orion Black the fourth. Lucius Malfoy has two sons, His Heir; Draco Romulus Malfoy and his second son; Pollux Arcturus Abraxas Malfoy, both sons have two of the purist blood types running through their veins, the blood of Morgana Le Fay and the blood of the Peverell brothers."

Nodding Lucius took the book back from his son and placed it back into its old spot. "Correct, now tell me why would you stoop to the lowest level, a muggles level no less, and punch your brother, my heir, in the face?" Pollux looked down in shame and sighed.

"I am truly sorry father, it was a foolish and idiotic act and I will never stoop that low again." Lucius nodded and pulled out his wand.

"Stand before me and you will receive your punishment." Pollux stood before his father and waited for the inevitable.

"Crucio!" A blinding pain shot through Pollux's body as if ten thousand white hot knives were very slowly being plunged deeply into his entire body and then forced upwards as they were pulled out. His blood boiled and his hands dug into the wooden floor boards. He had bitten his cheeks and could taste his blood.

In the end he sat shivering on the floor before his father blood seeping from his lips and nose. "When you leave send your mother in." Pollux coughed and staggered to his feet.

"Please let me take mother's punishment father as it was only I that acted disrespectfully, please I beg you father, I will take all her punishments from now until I die, please!" Pollux begged while trying in vain to not splutter his blood every where. Lucius eyed his son and while he was sure his son was telling the truth he was a little doubtful.

"Alright boy, you will take your mother's punishments as well as your own if anything goes wrong. Understood?" Pollux nodded and with that he was crucioed once again. This time he stumbled and staggered his way out of his father's study. He walked up to his room and closed the door and walked into his bathroom.

He cleaned up his face from where his blood and vomit had dried, drying his face he looked at his lip, sighing he ran a hand through his hair before leaving his bathroom. He saw that his mother was sitting on his bed with a grim expression on her face.

"Why Pollux? You are only 9. You should not be doing this to yourself." He smiled softly at her.

"Mum, please let me do this okay. I can't stand that you used to get punished; father has agreed that I will take all of your punishments as well as my own when something goes wrong. It is final; you will never have to feel another curse upon your body. Just accept it and move on." She admired his strength and respected his wishes and from then on out they never discussed the punishments.


It was Draco's 11th birthday and they were all sitting in the living room waiting for Lucius. Today they would be going to a quidditch match in less than fifteen minutes and all of them were excited about the match.

"Alright let us leave." Lucius said walking into the room. Taking a portkey to the grounds in which the match would take place Lucius led the group of six to their seats. Front row directly in the middle of the stadium is where they sat for the best view. All around them people started filling the seats, many thousands of fans sat in their team's colours.

Draco and Theodore had the small Orange and White flag of the Chudley Canons on their cheeks while Blaise, Pansy and Pollux had Green and White for the Kenmare Kestrels on their cheeks. The match started and it started off to a great start, the Kenmare Kestrels had the Quaffle for most of the game scoring 120 points while the Canons only had 90 points.

Draco jumped in excitement when the Canons scored four more goals jumping ahead of the Kestrels by ten points. Pollux shouted at his favourite team screaming out that they were idiots for letting the last toss go through the hoop.

Lucius glared at Pollux and Narcissa pulled him back into his seat whispering into his ear. "Calm down my love, don't let it get to you." Nodding he sat down and continued to watch.

In the end the Kenmare Kestrels won the cup beating the Canons by twenty points, Draco yelling his disgust the whole time. After the cup was given the 7 of them left and returned home after being at the stadium for over four hours. Draco was still giddy with excitement as it was still his birthday and he was still going to get his presents.

Opening them he found sweets, a scarf and a pair of gloves, a new wizard's chess set with real silver and diamonds encrusted into the faces of each piece. This set had come from his brother and it made him feel weird. He turned to his brother to say thanks but he couldn't quite express himself as he had no words to give, instead he gave his brother a manly hug. Pollux was proud that his brother loved his gift and it made him feel happy. Draco was given his key to his trust vault by both his parents.

"You'll have money in there for when you go shopping for your school supplies." His father had said. The key was secured around his neck and it instantly disappeared, hidden by magic. The day wound down and by the time dinner rolled around everyone was exhausted.

Eating quietly the family and friends departed at the stairs, Lucius and Draco going to their side of the Manor while Narcissa and Pollux made their way to theirs. Pansy, Theodore and Blaise walked to their rooms and fell asleep the very second their heads hit the pillows.


A few days after Draco and Pollux's friends had left; Draco asked if he could get his stuff for school as he wanted to be prepared by the time the 1st of September rolled around. It was July the 1st so he had and entire three months left of freedom so getting his school supplies was essential to him.

Pollux of course readily agreed with him and of course Lucius could not deny his eldest and so the four Malfoy's apparated into Diagon Alley.

"Draco, Pollux and I will get your school books, cauldron and crystal phials and of course your telescope and brass scales. We'll meet you at Madame Malkin's." Narcissa and Pollux walked off down the Alley and Draco turned to his father. "Can I go and get my robes, please father?" Lucius nodded. "I will meet you at Ollivander's." Draco nodded and ran off to Madame Malkin's. He had to wait for seven other new students to be fitted before it was his turn.

Pollux and Narcissa had been to all the required shops for Draco's school supplies and were just walking through the doors to Madame Malkin's when she heard his voice.

"I'm Malfoy, Draco Malfoy and you are?" Rolling her eyes she walked around the privacy screen and spotted Draco with a piece of black material hanging around his body and another boy with Black hair and muggle rags.

"I'm Harry. It's nice to meet you." Draco nodded.

"Which house do you want to be in? What is your blood status? Where are your parents?" The boy named Harry sighed.

"What do you mean by, what house do I want to be in? My blood status, I haven't a clue about and as for my parents, they died when I was a year old." Draco scanned the boys dress wear and then smirked.

"You're a muggleborn aren't you?" Harry looked puzzled.

"Ah no, last time I knew both my parents were magical." Draco's eyebrows shot into his hairline as did Narcissa's and Pollux's.

"Oh mother there you are, Harry this is my mother Lady Narcissa Malfoy and my younger brother Pollux, mother, Pollux this is Harry…" Harry smiled sheepishly.

"Potter, Harry Potter, it's nice to meet you both." Narcissa instantly looked towards his forehead.

"It's a pleasure to meet you Mr Potter." Pollux followed slightly behind Narcissa in an overly protective fashion.

"Pollux my love, stand down." Narcissa patted his shoulder, when he jumped in front of her and placed a hand in front of himself, glaring at Harry when he stuck his hand out to shake that of Narcissa's.

"My apologies mum." He stepped aside and then stood next to his brother.

"You really should relax brother. You'll accidently cast one of your many wandless and silent spells and it'll get you into trouble." Draco looked toward Harry once again when he felt his brother relax next to him.

After being fitted Draco, Pollux and Narcissa left Madame Malkin's, Pollux once again standing slightly behind his mother protecting her back. He had become increasingly more protective over her since he had started taking all of her punishments. Though she would never admit it she was grateful for his protectiveness at least she knew someone cared. Meeting Lucius at Ollivander's, Draco was united with his wand and it felt incredible.
