Hello my readers, I am still currently working on my other story the Secret Riddle but this little idea wouldn't leave my head so I wrote it down and quite liked the outcome so I decided to share it with you! I hope you enjoy!

~Disclaimer: I own nothing, well except Gabrielle, Arachna, Eldora, Gretchen, Tabitha and Priscilla!

"Narcissa darling, it's been so long" A thin woman spoke as she embraced the other woman in a polite hug; you know the way the elite greet each other. She was beautiful in her age, with her dark hair elegantly pulled back in a pale pink gown that ended at her knees with wide straps for sleeves and a bow the same color tied at the front.

"Indeed it has Gabrielle! How have you been" The tall lithe blonde spoke as she smiled pleasantly. She looked beautiful in an emerald green dress that ended at her knees, the top twisted so that it rested off her shoulders and a black belt with a silver flower on it rested around her waist.

"How have you been lately Narcissa, I feel like you were away far longer than you were" Gabrielle said smiling pleasantly. Narcissa smiled back as politely as possible. The woman before her irritated her to no end, always trying to get the best gossip.

"Yes well it was a much needed vacation" Narcissa said smiling pleasantly as she moved through the garden, smiling at guests and sipping on her cup of tea.

"Is Lucius back up to health?"

"Very much, his health has improved considerably. I've not seen him in such good spirits since Draco was born" Narcissa said casting her eyes at the library window. Lucius was watching her over the top of his newspaper.

"That's great, how is Draco these days, he didn't return with you" Gabrielle said smiling

"No, he found he rather liked Australia and what it had to offer him. He's found a rather nice little job there" Narcissa said smiling

"Really, what is he doing" Priscilla Parkinson said as she joined them, she was a petite woman with a piggish face. She was wearing a black and white dress with a rounded neck line.

"He's apprenticing a broom maker. He's quite good at it, helping his mentor create potions and spells that make the brooms go faster and the like" Narcissa said smiling, she was quite proud of her son. "How is Pansy doing these days Priscilla?"

"Wonderfully! She's happily married and both have great jobs!" Priscilla said smiling; she was Narcissa's closest friend.

"You simply must tell me what she does"

"Well you remember Pansy's knack for memory charms, she's an obliviator for the ministry" Priscilla said smiling "She's so close to being the head of her department"

"That is quite an accomplishment, what of her husband?"

"He is an Auror, they met in school but their past wasn't great. They had a case together a few years ago and met again, much better terms this time" Priscilla said smiling "I'm just glad she's happy, after her father's choices"

"I am surprised you didn't arrange something for her Priscilla" Gabrielle said soaking up the information she'd been given.

"Oh I had, with Arachna's son Blaize, but they both wished to marry another so Arachna and I talked things over since we were both widows now and granted them their request." Priscilla said smiling

"Mother, have you seen Tabitha? Her mother is here but I haven't seen her" The young woman who approached Gabrielle was stunning, same dark hair pulled back elegantly in a navy blue dress that hugged her figure with white band around her waist and neck line and white shoes on.

"I haven't dear, Narcissa Priscilla you remember my youngest daughter Astoria," Gabrielle said smiling

"Yes, it's nice to see you dear."

"Same to you Madam Malfoy"

"I believe your friend is in the west garden with Eldora Nott and Gretchen Bulstrode" Narcissa said smiling as Astoria thanked her and walked off.

"You have another daughter right, Daphne?" Pricilla asked smiling "What is she up too these days"

"We had a bit of a falling out so we don't speak as often as we used to but she's married now as well, Marcus Flint" Gabrielle said smiling

"And have you matched Astoria yet?"

"No sadly, I'm having trouble finding a man that would suite her tastes" Gabrielle said rolling her eyes. "Daphne was so much easier, easy to please that child, already liked Marcus"

"What was your falling out about, if it isn't to personal" Priscilla asked sharing a look with Narcissa

"Nothing to personal, mostly Daphne has no inclination on how to run her home. It's a disaster there and it's just going to make life difficult for her" Gabrielle shrugged "Have you an arrangement for Draco yet Narcissa"

"No, Lucius and I haven't discussed it, at one point in time we thought perhaps Pansy, but she's happily married" Narcissa said smiling over her cup.

"Would you consider matching him with Astoria, it would be a good match, she's beautiful and intelligent, raised in the right society, has the right blood"

"I'm afraid I can't do that Gabrielle," Narcissa said setting her cup down elegantly "And it is petty to think of blood now a day's darling"

"You'll find no girl a better arranged match than Astoria" Gabrielle said offended

"Oh I've nothing against Astoria, she's a pleasant girl and I believe she'd make Draco a fine wife, but he is already happily married" Narcissa said smirking

"Married! To who! And when? Narcissa, we did not receive invitations to the wedding" Priscilla said gasping "Not that I'm offended dear but I thought he'd at least tell Pansy and Blaize, they are his best friends"

"There was no extravagant wedding, they decided on a quite ceremony with just her family, Lucius and I" Narcissa said sipping her tea. "And it was about a two years after we arrived in Australia, they met there"

"Well who is she" Gabrielle asked angrily.

"So sorry I'm late Narcissa," All three women turned to see a petite woman approach them. She was stunning in a white dress with a blue oriental flower design, a white belt with silver clasp around her waist and a little white cap sleeve jacket with blue decoration around the edge. Her hair was left down with a blue head band.

"Not a problem dear, how is your mother?"

"She's great, getting ready for our annual reunion" She said smiling

"I wish her luck" Narcissa said before turning to the two girls. "Ladies, I want to introduce you to my daughter-in-law, Hermione Granger"

"Well this is a surprise, I'm Priscilla Parkinson" Priscilla said smiling pleasantly at the young woman before her.

"Pansy's mother right?"

"Yes, you know Pansy?"

"Yes, we went to school together, but I've worked with her occasionally"

"This is Gabrielle Greengrass" Narcissa said introducing the other woman.

"Nice to meet you ma'am" Hermione said pleasantly

"What do you do for a living Hermione?" Priscilla asked

"I work for Malfoy Inc. and I'm an author" Hermione said smiling

"Author, what do you write?" Gabrielle asked trying to scope out this new woman.

"I write many different things, muggle studies text books, a few transfiguration texts, I am currently working on an ancient runes book. I'm also writing a book about the war and a few muggle fantasy books based off what happened the past few years. It'll have to be submitted to the ministry first but I've never had a problem with my books fazing into the muggle world" Hermione said smiling brightly

"So many subjects, how do you find time to work for Lucius?"

"Time isn't an issue; I find that what I do within Lucius's company comes as second nature to me, as does writing books." Hermione said smiling

"I've heard muggle studies texts take extensive research and years of living in the muggle world, how does your husband cope with you being away for so long" Gabrielle asked smugly, she didn't like this girl, as far as she was concerned Hermione Granger was a gold digging whore. Hermione smiled at the woman, knowing exactly what she thought.

"I actually am never away from home unless I'm in court with a case, seeing as I am the head of the Legal department of Malfoy Inc. I work primarily from home. Draco and I decided this would be best so that I could be with any children we decide to have. And I don't have to research the muggle world, I've lived the past twenty years there, my entire family is in the muggle world and Draco and I live in between both worlds." Hermione said smirking; Gabrielle glared at her, barely holding her anger back.

"Gabrielle" Narcissa warned

"It's quite alright Narcissa" Hermione said taking a sip of tea

"If you insist" Narcissa said smirking as she leaned back. Hermione took another sip before setting it down. Priscilla watched as Hermione leaned in a ways.

"Mrs. Greengrass, it is apparent you haven't realized who I am but I can guarantee you don't scare me. I am one of third of the trio that faced Voldemort and lived to tell the tale. I am the Lady Malfoy, and I love my husband. We are perfectly happy and are agreed on how we wish to live our life, with a few compromises. Draco conceded to allow me to work and I conceded to do so at home. Nothing you do or say to me will change the fact that I am the one with the Malfoy family ring upon my finger and if you decide to fight me I have the power to make your life a living hell." Hermione then leaned back picked up her cup and took a sip before turning to Priscilla "Mrs. Parkinson how is Pansy doing? It's been quite a few years since I saw her last"

"She is well" Priscilla said with a smile, this young woman had effectively shut up the elites biggest gossip with a few simple sentences and then pretended as if it never occurred. She was very suited for the Malfoy way of life. Gabrielle stormed off angrily after seeing no one was going to pity her. "You handled yourself well, Gabrielle isn't so easily dissuaded"

"Neither is Lavender Brown and I had to live with her for Seven years. After the first two months you learn how to effectively quiet them and then have seven years of practice" Hermione said smirking

"Well then Mrs. Malfoy, welcome to our society"

"It is an honor to be here" Hermione said returning Priscilla's smirk as she sipped her tea.

"You were fabulous today, Mya" Narcissa said smiling at Hermione as they sat in the library later that night. "I've never seen Gabrielle so speechless"

"Yes well, I'll admit I was terrified she was going to curse me" Hermione said smiling.

"Good day love?" Draco asked as he entered the room and sat down on the lounge. They shifted so that he was laying his head in her lap, her running her fingers through his hair.

"Very, Gabrielle Greengrass tried to arrange a marriage between you and her daughter Astoria" Hermione said smirking

"Our Mya put her in her place quickly, a little viper you found there Draco" Lucius said smirking from where he sat behind the desk.

"Not a viper father, a lioness" Draco said smirking.
