Hermione is sitting by herself in her bedroom bay window looking out over the garden and pool, and has been for hours. Her mom has been knocking every so often on her door, but Hermione ignored her. She was just to overwhelmed right now. The war just ended five weeks ago. Harry almost died, but thanks to the Malfoy family he survived. He just woke up from a coma four weeks ago. Trials for the death eaters just ended a week ago. The Malfoy's ended up getting off because they switched at the end and helped Harry. Malfoy. Another reason she was overwhelmed and the reason she was hiding. Her parents had informed her this morning (mind you her birthday) that she was adopted, and that her real parents happen to the one and only Lucius and Narcissa Malfoy. Their perfect blond pure-blood supremest ex death eaters self. She wanted to think it was just a well played joke, but she knew it wasn't when she felt the tingling all over after the words had left her mother mouth. She had stood up and looked in the mirror by the fireplace. She had the blond hair, but hers had a wave to it. Her eyes were the same as Draco's. The striking gray blue. She had also grown a good four inches putting her at 5'9. After she had taken it all end she had turned around and ran up stairs which brings us back to her sitting in her window only hours later.
Hermione finally get out of her window and opens the door her mother is slumped over sitting on the floor facing her door. Her mother looks up and says, "Baby I am so terribly sorry. If I did not have to tell you, I would have kept it a secret forever. You are my daughter, not theirs. I raised you. I stayed up with you all night when you were sick and kissed your scraps when you got hurt. I never meant to hurt you. I would rather hurt myself. I forgot that sooner or later we were going to have to tell you. I almost hoped Voldemort never died so that I could keep you forever. I really hope one day you can forgive your father and I".
Hermione drops down to her knees and hugs her mom and says, "Mommy I was never mad at you and daddy. It is just so much has happened. You will always be my parents not the Malfoy's, but I do have to at least get to know them. I am sure as soon as the concealment spell was broken something must have changed in the paper work in the Wizard world which mean people already are going to know about me. I hope you can understand. I love you and daddy".
"Oh baby we love you too, and we both understand completely that is why dad is not here right now. He couldn't see you leave."
Hermione nods and stands up and walks back into her room leaving her door open. She looks around and sighs before grabbing her overnight bag and sitting it on her bed. She walks into her closet and grabs three pant suit outfits, a pair of black pumps and three different color silk sleeveless shirts. She puts everything in her overnight before grabbing three sets of bra and panties. She grabs a three short and tank top sleep sets and then three pair of jeans and three jumpers. She throws in her towelettes, toothbrush, and tooth paste before closing the bag. She looks down at herself and walks back into her closet. She walks back out in a black pencil skirt that hit right above her knees and a teal green silk button up sleeveless shirt with matching pumps. She grabs her bag and looks at her mom and asks, "So how do I look"?
Her mom nods and says, "Beautiful like always".
Hermione hugs her mom and kisses her cheek before walking over to the fireplace in her room and throwing in some floo powder and yelling "Malfoy Manor".

Lucius was sitting in his office when he hears the warning bell for the Malfoy Family papers being changed. He stands up and hopes that it has to do with Cassiopeia and not that Draco has a child. As soon as he opens the filling cabinet Cassiopeia's birth certificate comes flying out and you could see where it shows that she had died in birth change to alive. Lucius gave a sigh of relief, and says, "Walter".
A rather tall house elf dressed in a suit pops in and says, "What does Master Luke need"?
"Can you tell Cris that I need her to come to my office".
The house elf nods and disappears. Lucius sits back down at his desk just as Cris walks into his office. He smiles at her and says, "She is finally coming home".
Cris mouth gaps for a minute before she closes it and ask, "Are you sure"?
Lucius nods and hold out the birth certificate. Cris takes it and starts crying when she see alive where it had said dead all these years. Lucius stands up and walks around his desk and hugs her while she cries. She finally stop and steps back not a blemish in sight. If you had not seen her cry you would have never known. She says, "We need to have her room opened up and changed to an adult room".
"I agree about an adult room but why not let her pick the decorations we have no clue what type of life she will be coming from".
Cris nods and kisses Lucius cheek before walking away. Lucius looks at the birth certificate one more time and smiles. His princess was finally coming home.

Draco was lounging in the family sitting room when the fireplace light up. He was confused for a second since he knew both his parents were home and only Malfoy's could come through the floo into this room. He whipped out his wand just in case someone had some how changed the wards. He let his arm drop when a tall blond with his eyes steps out. She smiles at him and says, "Nice to know your always paying attention to your surrounding ferret".
"Granger. Why the hell do you look like me and how did you come into this room"?
"Your parents never told you about me? I am guessing I am your twin".
Draco's mouth drops and he says, "They told me you died at birth".
Hermione shrugs and says, "I do not know why, but I think it has to do with Voldemort".
Draco nods and says, "Walter".
The house elf arrives with a pop and says "How can I help you master Drake".
Draco smiles at the house elf and says, "Can you have both of my parents come here and tell them that Cassiopeia is here".
The house elf nods and disappears. Draco looks her up and down and says, "It is surreal to think I have been around you and did not even know".
Hermione nods and says, "It is even more surreal to think you were someone else your whole life".
Draco sighs as Lucius and Narcissa walk in. They just stand in the door and stare. Hermione shifts her weight and that broke the spell Narcissa walks up to her slowly and says, "Can I hug you please".
Hermione smiles at her and nod. Narcissa wraps her arms around her and says, "It is nice that you are home".
She pulls away and says, "It is nice to be here, but I am not staying. I came to meet you and to get to know you, but I do plan on going back to my other life".
Narcissa nods and Lucius says, "Who were you".
Hermione swallows and says, "I am was Hermione Granger".
Neither of them blink a eye and Lucius says, "Okay. At least I know my daughter was raised right and has her head on her shoulders that is all I hoped for when we gave you to the adoption agency. Anyway I do hope you plan on staying after you get to know us. We would never stop you from going to see your parents that raised you, we just want you happy".
Hermione nods says, "We shall see. I really do wish to know all three of you as family, but I care deeply for my parents who raised me".
Narcissa nods says, "We understand completely. We figured that is how it would be when we gave you up. All we want is to be apart of you life. By the way do you wish to be called Hermione or do you want to go by your birth name".
"What is my birth name".
Draco smiles and says, "A constellation like mine. You are Cassiopeia Raine Malfoy".
Hermione nods and says, "I do not mind going by Cassiopeia so that way if you do not wish for people to know who I grew up as will not".
Lucius says, "I would be proud for people to know The Hermione Granger is my daughter and not because you are a third of the Golden Trio who saved the world, but because everyone knows you are smart and a good person. Something I was never allowed to show the world".
Hermione smiles and says, "I would still like to go by Cassiopeia".
Narcissa smiles and says, "Do you want to see you room before we have dinner".
"I would love too".
Narcissa offers Hermione her arm and when Hermione takes it they leave the room.

Draco sits back down and sighs and Lucius does the same before he says, "I am sorry we never told you she was actually alive".
Draco nods and says, "It is fine. I am guessing Voldemort is the reason".
He nods and says, "Isn't he the answer to the reason everything for our family is fucked up".
"True. What did he want with her that was so bad you faked her death".
"He was going to take her as his dark lady as soon as she came into puberty".
Draco gags and says, "I completely understand why you did what you did".
Lucius nods and says, "I am going to go back to my office and fix all the family stuff now that your sister has came back".
Draco nod and sits there thinking about all the names and horrible stuff he had done to his sister again. Only this time he felt even worst. He had a lot of things to make up.

When Hermione and Narcissa got to Hermione's room. The doors were white with a C on one and a M on the other. Narcissa opens the doors and says, "The room is in its most basic state so that you can design it anyway you want. Pretty much just touch a certain part and it will change it to how you picture it. The walk in closet is the door on the right and the bathroom is the door on the left. You can do the same with both rooms as you can with this one. I will leave you be, so that you can get everything the way you want. Wanda will come get you when it is time for dinner".
Hermione says, "I have one question before you go".
Narcissa turns and looks at her and says, "Anything dear".
Hermione swallows and ask, "Why"?
Narcissa looks down and says, "Because he was going to take you as his dark lady when you came in to puberty. Lucius or I would never allow something like that to happen to either of you".
Hermione nods and says, "One more".
Narcissa nods and Hermione says, "Why did you follow him"?
"Our families. We were raised that way and by the time we realized what he was it was to late to back out. So we dealt with it until we found away to help the right side".
Hermione nods and Narcissa smiles and says, "See you in a couple hours dear. Also dinner is not a formal affair when it is just us four. Usually a jeans and sweater affair".
Hermione smiles back and says "Okay".
Narcissa closes the door behind her and the first thing Hermione does is walks into the bathroom. It was bigger then the one at her other house and that was saying something. It had a tub that could hold at least five people on the right side. In the middle it had a double sink and mirror with floor to ceiling shelves full of shampoos, conditioners, body lotions, bubble bath, body sprays, and body wash on either side. On the left side it had a shower with five different shower heads. She stood there for a few minute before touching the walls and making it a pale green color and walks out.
She grabs her bag and walks into the closet and put her outfits on the shelves and giggles because compared to the closet the nine sets of clothes didn't even make a dent. She was going to have to go shopping to fill the closet up. Hermione had already decided she was going to go back and forth between the two dwellings and stay as her true self just tell her friends first and then put out a public notice. Hermione puts her shoes away and then changes her closet to neon green, so that it would wake her up while she picked her outfit. She changes into jeans and a white wrap around jumper and walks back into the bedroom and touches the first piece of furniture and turns them all a pale green with a blond wooden top besides her wall to wall bookshelf it was all blond wood. (Green is my favorite color and this is how my bedroom looks). She changes the sheets to cream and the pillow cases dark green. The comforter a pale green and the throw a dark green. She walks over to where a couch, love seat and two recliners sit in front of a fireplace with a 80" T.V above it. (We are going to have it were in private residents electronic works) She changes the couches and the recliners black. She looks around and nods before falling down on to the couch and accio Hogwarts: A History.
She makes it through the first chapter when there is a knock. Hermione says, "Come in" with out looking up.
Draco opens the door and laughs. Hermione looks up at him, and says, "What Draco"?
Draco sobers up and says, "Can I sit down".
Hermione nods and says, "Now what is up"?
Draco looks at his hands and says, "I am sorry. I know you think it is just because you are my sister I am saying this and that is not true. I truly am sorry. I wish I could change how I treated you. I wish I did not have to play as the bad guy. I always admired you. You stood up for what you thought no matter what. I mean you punched me in the face. I hope you can forgive me some day".
Hermione smiles at him and says, "You have been forgiven for a while. I knew that was not you. I did not know at the time, but I am guessing now it was because we are twins".
Draco breaks out into this huge smile and pretty much throws himself at her. Hermione giggles and says, "Who would have known you were such a hugger".
Draco laughs to and pulls away and says, "Shh. We will tell no one".
Hermione nods and says, "Twin secret".
Draco smiles again and says, "So does that mean you are going to stay this way".
"Yes, I am planning on making this form my permanent form after I tell my friends and if our parents wish the rest of the wizard world".
"Awesome. It is going to be so cool actually getting to know you".
"That it is. Quick question"?
"What"?
"Is Pansy really like how she is at school"?
"No, that is all an act. She is actually more like you then you would think. She acts like that because people are two faced and that is how her parents raised her to be".
"Good. I am not sure I could have dealt with her had that been how she really was".
Draco laughs and says, "That makes two of us".
They sit there in silence for a few when Hermione says, "Yes, that is really how Ron is, but Harry is not a fame seeker. If he could he would not be the chosen one".
"Um.. Okay".
"Why the um okay? I was just answering you question".
"I never asked a question out loud".
Hermione's gets big and says, "Think a question again".
Hermione think the answer back and Draco says, "Holy shit that is amazing. We can hear each others thought. I wonder what else and if it is all thought or just ones we wish the other to hear".
"I am thinking it is what we want the other to hear because I was just going through all the information I have on twin links and I am guessing you got none of it".
"Nothing".
"This is a good thing. I really doubt either of us want to know every thought".
"True true".
They decide to talk through their connection and to see if they could feel emotions and pain through it. Wanda pops in dressed in black pant suit and says, "Dinner is ready".
Draco looks at his watch and says, "Wow time flies".
Hermione nods and says, "Very true".
Wanda smiles at the two and disappears with a pop. Draco stands up and helps her up before offering his arm. She smiles and links her arm through his and he leads her to the family dining room.

After the four of them enjoyed a five course meal they retired to the family living room with desert and talked well into the morning.

Author Note: I hope you all like it. This is just one of two stories I am in the process of writing. It is nice to actually be writing again. The chapter might be a little slow going up, but I pretty much know where the story is going.
