Hermione Granger, Muggle Born. Raped and killed a pureblood. Pleads innocent. Sentenced to 30 years in Azkaban or 60 years of slavery. Claimed by Draco Malfoy, will be placed in his possession, February 7th.

After having convinced his parents that he is madly in love, Draco Malfoy is at the Ministry of Magic signing the paperwork necessary to claim Hermione Granger. He doesn't actually love her, he is merely curious as to her crime. He doesn't think that she is guilty. Draco completes the paperwork, then leaves the Ministry as quickly as possible.

February 7th

Hermione is at the Ministry, in a holding cell. A guard walks by, again. Then, a man from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement comes, "You've been claimed," he says.

"By who?" Hermione asks surprised.

He looks at his clipboard before replying, "Draco Malfoy."

"Malfoy?"

"Yes, Malfoy, try listening."

"I was listening."Hermione says, but the man is no longer listening. He tells her takes a pen from his pocket and tells her to hold it. A few seconds later, it starts glowing, she feels a tug, then she's on her way.

Draco Malfoy waits for Hermione at the Manor. She is taking a portkey to arrive. Draco becomes more and more impatient.

The documents that Draco signed to claim Hermione gave him permission to do anything to her, and to make her do anything. He owned her. The only thing the law would not permit him to do was set her free.

All of the sudden, Hermione arrives. She looks the same as he remembers, just less tidy. She scowls when she sees him. He greets her "Hey."

She groans,"Why did you do this? Why claim me? A mudblood. Is it because you want to have a toy? To torture? I know you've always hated me."

"Is that any way to treat your Master?" He teases her.

"No, Master."

"Actually, I think you're innocent. I was interested and wanted to know what happened. I convinced my parents that I love you because I wanted to save you from prison, and save the Order of the Phoenix from the Death Eaters, I like Luna, she joined, I heard. I had to trade the information for something, the solution? You. Shall I show you to your suite?"

"Yes, Master."

They walk in silence. It's quite late already, so when they arrive at her suite, he opens the door, "Here we are. You are stuck on the property, because of the wards. The door to your suite can only be opened by me, you, and my parents."

"Thank you, Master." Draco bids her goodnight and locks the door to her suite.
