Chapter 1
"If only I could catch you, my love, you will become mine. One day." He woke with a start, holding his head in his hands, he replayed his dream over again. Whomever the girl was, she smelled divine, like strawberries. His only regret was not catching a glimpse of her face.
With a huff worthy of a Malfoy, he got up out of bed and dressed before storming down to the dining room. He hadn't realized that during all of this, his clothes were a bit shorter. He heard his Mother gasp as he entered the room. "Lucius, he is one!" she exclaimed. Draco looked between his parents as if they were losing their minds. Lucius Malfoy cursed under his breath before looking at Draco. "Have a seat son. It's time we had this discussion." Lucius said.
Draco looked a bit nervous as he sat down, waiting for the "pop" meaning his breakfast was here. Once seated, he looked at his parents expectantly. "Draco, darling, what do you know about Veelas?" Narcissa asked. He sat there a moment, thinking of what he had read. "Veelas are mated to one person for life. They have one year to find their mate or die a slow and painful death. Veelas take on a bird like formation while protecting their mate from harm. They will purr when they are with their mate. They live to make their mate happy. Veelas go through a transformation." he stopped abruptly and glared between his parents. "Why is this suddenly relevant? IS THIS WHAT I AM? IS THAT WHY I HAD THAT DREAM? IS THAT WHY I COULD SMELL THE GIRL IN MY DREAM?! ANSWER ME!" he yelled as he stood suddenly, causing his chair to crash to the floor. Narcissa and Lucius both waited for him to calm down. "I'm sorry, Draco. We should have told you sooner. We were hoping the gene would skip you." his Mother sniffed while wiping a tear from her cheek. "I will inform Dumbledore immediately, but Draco remember you only have a year to find your mate and get her to accept you." Draco glared at his parents once more before making his way back to his room to pack. School was set to begin in two days time and to say that he was now anxious, was an understatement.
After finally managing to get his trunk packed, he began pacing again. Who was this mystery girl? How am I supposed to get her to accept me? Wait! What if she doesn't? What will I do?! I refuse to die because someone rejects me! Besides, who in their right mind would reject me? He smirked to himself. This would be easy, especially if his mate was at Hogwarts. He began to plan how to find his mate.
