The summer was nearing an end, and the golden trio was visiting Diagon Alley to pick up their school things. They were there, and got most of their things. They were all eating ice cream out side the ice cream shop.

"Hey Harry, I think that we should go chech out all the stuff at-" Ron started, but Hermione cut in.

"Yes, go on, I know that you guys are dying to go and check out the new Quidditch stuff. Besides, I doubt that you would want to go to Flourish and Blots to look at some books"

She looked up from her what was just very amusing icecream that was melting in the heat of the summer sun to see that they already left."Guys..."

As she walked into the book store, she thought that she was just going to do some browsing, not find something that she would want to own permanently.

She was waking through some of the back isles of the shop when she got the feeling that she was being watched. she looked all around her and found nobody.

She walked up to a particularily dusty shelf, covered in books. They were all seccond hand books and she decided that she would like to get a new one for an interesting read. She saw titles such as Taming the Wild Beast Within and Temptation: A Guide to Find Your True Love.

She had been feeling lonely lately so she picked it up. She looked on the inside cover to see who the previous owner was, and saw no other name than Lucius Malfoy.

"Looks like we have a lonesome mudblood over here" said a cold voice.
