Prologue

She stepped up to her armoire wearing nothing but a pair of dark crimson underwear. She pulled out the doors and ran her fingers along the hem of a blood red robe. She pulled it off the hanger, put it on and went over to sit on her four poster bed. She picked up the phone from her bedside end table and dialed a number she knew by heart. The ringing resonated through the receiver and caused her to go into a slight trance until she heard someone pick up.

"Hello?"

"Hello darling."

"Mum, wow, I haven't called you in so long. I'm sorry; it's just the wedding plans got out of hand."

"It's alright Hermione; it's just good to hear your voice."

"Oh mother, you have to come down to Manchester to finalize the wedding details! Blaise can't wait to meet you!"

"I'm sorry honey, but I don't think I'll make it. The practice is keeping me quite busy and since your father passed away it's just been a bit tough."

"Do you need me to come down there?"

"No, no darling, look I've got to go…"

"Alright mum, I love you."

"I love you Hermione."

Anne Granger raised the gun to her head, a loud bang rang through the house and then…silence.

A/N: Ok, this story is being reposted because I wanted it to get more reviews call it an ego trip if you want to So, perhaps if i re post the chapters I already have in a quick timely pace, more people will read and therefore review.

PS IF YOU WANT A STORY WHERE DRACO IS IN IT FROM THE VERY BEGINNING THEN YOU MAY NOT LIKE THIS STORY. DRACO DOES NOT APPEAR UNTIL THE MIDDLE OF THE STORY. HOWEVER, I WILL MENTION HIM OCCASIONALLY THROUGH THE BEGINNING. DO NOT EXPECT ROMANCE TILL LATER, ATLEAST TILL THE MIDDLE. DON'T REVIEW ME LATER COMPLAINING THAT DRACO ISN'T IN IT! THANK YOU :

Since this chap is so short, you'll get the first chapter today as well.
