She touched the box in her pocket and smiled sadly, not knowing how to break the news gently enough. 'Get a grip on yourself Narcissa.' She frowned, pulling the velvet box from the pocket in her robes, flipping the lid open carefully. Inside sat her wedding ring. The embedded emeralds shone back at her, light refracted around the silk it sat on. The lid was slammed down again only a moment later, a tear rolling down her cheek. She couldn't go through this. No longer. It was time, her legs seemed to crumble beneath her as she sunk to the ground. She had found out the truth and she couldn't deal with it, 'You're supposed to be the strong one.' She whimpered in her head, a muffled cry escaping her opening and closing mouth. All those moments they had shared together: their wedding day, the stolen kisses, the day Draco was born. And now this. This is what it had came to.
A dark shaped flitted into the room, resting his hands on his wife's shoulders. His slightly too large death eater robes, pooling at his feet and brushing her back. She pulled away, ''Don't touch me!'' She whispered, her attempt at snarling, a wasted effort. ''Don't think I don't know!'' She managed a little hiss, her voice quivering with mourning.
''Dear, I don't know what you mean.'' The blonde man spoke, his voice crisp and clear unlike her interfered tone, interrupted by small sobs.
''Don't 'dear' me, Mr. Malfoy! You know what... I mean. I saw you, you know.''
His face paled even more, as Narcissa continued in her saddened words. ''I know you have another woman. I saw you with your arm around her waist, I saw you kiss her cheek. I'm not a fool.'' To her annoyance, Lucius laughed, tears springing to his eyes. ''Well I'm glad you think it's funny, Lucius!'' The woman said, tearfully.
Lucius ceased his laughing before wiping his tears back. ''Do you know who that was?'' He asked, continuing after seeing her raised brow. ''Felicity Malfoy... My sister.''
It was her turn to laugh now, giving him a watery smile. ''So there's no-one else?'' She inquired confirmation. He responded by holding out his hand to help her off the ground. ''Only you, my love.''
