Rating: PG 13


Lucius Malfoy sat in the cool leather chair in his study holding his head in his hands, an empty bottle of fire whisky on the desk in front of him.

He had screwed up big time and for the first time in his life he was unsure of what to do.

Raising his head up out of his hands he surveyed the parchment in front of him, bits of it jumping out and commanding his attention.

My most loyal... servant...your son...mine... 24 hours ...promise ... no choice ... Lord Voldermort

My loyal servant

No! Im a Malfoy not a servant

Your son

No! My son

MINE

Never!

24 hours

To save him

Promise

Can be broken

No choice

I do, I do have a choice don't I?

I can save him, send him somewhere safe, away from here, away from this.

I will, I will send him away until Hogwarts starts again, but where?

Hearing a soft knock at the door Lucius looked up. Schooling his face in to a cold mask and hardening his eyes he answered for the intruder to come in.

The door opened slowly and poking her head round Narcissa smiled softly at her husband.

"Come to bed Luc, its late"

Lucius didn't move, just sat and watched his wife for a while before indicating to her that she should sit.

Now curious and a little worried Narcissa sat in the seat opposite her husband with her hands folded in her lap.

"Luc, love what's wrong, what's happened?"

Lucius didn't answer her instead he passed her the letter.

Searching her husband's eyes for a clue as to what she was about to read she lowered her eyes and began to scan the parchment.

Beautiful was the only word Lucius could think of to describe his wife.

She had long blonde hair that fell past her shoulders and down her back in waves. A slim build and a complexion lighter then her husbands. Dark blue eyes, a small straight nose and full lips that were usually curved into a smile.

At the moment though she was biting her bottom lip and her shoulders were shaking. Letting out a gasp she looked up at her husband.

"How, what, oh gods. Lucius what are we going to do?" she asked her bottom lip quivering.

Getting up Lucius moved round the mahogany desk and sat at his wife's feet, he grabbed her hands in his before answering.

"I don't know Cissa, I do know that we can't let him have Draco but other then that." he trailed off.

Narcissa reached out with one hand and ran it through Lucius' platinum hair.

" Dumbledore." She whispered. Seeing the look of anger cross his face she quickly continued.

"He's the only one, love. I know you don't like him that much but he is the only the dark lord fears and he will protect Draco. We have no choice."

Lucius nodded. His mind working over in over drive to form a plan to save his son.

" There's just one problem with that. If we send Draco to Dumbledore then the dark lord will kill us and I don't care if he kills me but you, I love you cissa which is why you will go with Draco."

"No Luc please " she slide off the chair." please, come with us. Im sire once you tell Dumbledor everything that he will under stand."

Lucius shook his head.

"I'm a deatheater, that's all he will want and need to know."

"But Severus – "she began.

"Can not jeopardize his position."

Grabbing her left hand he bought it up to his lips, kissing the palm softly.

"Come, we have less then 20 hours left. We need to get bags packed and get a letter off to Dumbledor." Getting up to his feet he pulled his wife up, fleetingly pressing his lips against hers.

"Go and wake Draco."

Too numb to speak she nodded her head slightly and fled the room, holding back the tears that threatened to fall.

Lucius stood where he was for a few minutes before bending down and picking up the letter off the floor, pocketing it and walking back round behind his desk.

Once seated he pulled open a draw, took out a piece of parchment and began writing a letter to albus Dumbldore, Headmaster of Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry and the Secret Keeper for the Order of the Phoenix.

Hurrying down the manors grand hallways Nacrissa stumbled up the marble staircase. Upon reaching her sone bedroom door she threw it open and rushed in. finding his bed empty she started panicking.

"Draco? Draco!"

Hearing a click behind her she spun round, relief flooding her senses upon seeing her son.

"God draco you had me so worried."

Draco greatly resembled his father but even more so with his hair loose and falling a bout his face.

"Mother! What are you doing here?"

Blushing slightly he grabbed a robe off the floor and put it on. The only other item he wore was a towel round his waist.

"Really draco, its nothing I haven't seen before." She said smiling at her son's unusual display of embarrassment.

"That's not the point." Draco said indignantly "are you dong her anyway?"

Nacrissa's smile faded; biting her lip nervously she sat down on Draco's unmade bed.

"Draco I need to tell you something very important but I have to do it quickly, we don't have much time. So please sit."

Draco walked over to his bed his mind racing with what his mother might tell him.

"Before you were born, before I even got pregnant, Lucius and I had a lot of trouble having children. We had been trying for years but with no success. The when I did get pregnant I miscarried. Your father and I finally came to the decision to get help. Finding no help that worked we turned to the dark lord for assistance.' Seeing the look of disbelief and horror on her son's face she continued. "I know it was stupid, we should never have gone to him but if we hadn't you wouldn't be here now. "

"How?' Draco asked, "How did he help you?"

Nacrissa swallowed. This was going to be the hard part.

"We realised when we went to a healer that it was Lucius that was the problem. He was almost infertile. Not completely but enough so that it's almost impossible for him to get any one pregnant. The dark lord offered us a solution that at the time we couldn't refuse. We were so desperate to have a child, to make a family." She felt tears well up in her eyes. Blinking them back she knew she had to be strong for her son.

"He found a spell that would join his sperm with Lucius's, creating a higher chance of me getting pregnant. I don't under stand what happened next or how it worked but I did get pregnant.9 months later you were born and we weren't sure who was the father. So to be on the safe side Luc and I did a paternity spell on you. It came back that, that you you we were-"she couldn't do it, she couldn't tell him.

"Were what? Mother" moving if front of her, he grasped her hands " please, tell me, mother?"

Swallowing she tried again.

"That you were not my son." Im so sorry, please forgive me.

"What? What do you mean?"

"That you were, are Lucius and the dark lords son."
