Harry for one more time found himself desperate. "The situation is getting worse and worse. It's literary a mess. First the attacks and now that? Give me a break already." While he made his way back to his office in the Ministry he heard loud noises and insults coming from the Department of Magical Law Enforcement. "Oh, for Merlin's sake! What is it this time?" But before he could learn more about the incident he watched a very angry Draco Malfoy burst out of the Law Department making his way to the exit.
Draco had enough already. OK, he knew that they couldn't forgive him so easily. His past wasn't clean and cut. And the name Malfoy certainly didn't bring up good memories. But he was not his father. He had changed and his actions have proved that. But he was still on their suspect list. Today he was called to testify about the murders. And he would be calm, unless he was treated properly. But they were ready to put him in Azkaban for sure. Thanks God he had gone to a public place with many friends and colleagues so he was safe. No matter what, he wouldn't let it pass so easily. He was going to help and find them. "My name will be clear after this. I promise."
Meanwhile in the Diagon Alley:
"Ginny, you were late. Again! I start to believe that you and Ronald do not know the meaning of the phrase in time."
"I'm so sorry Herm but I was writing an article about the Quidditch championship. I was so concentrated and I lost the track of time." Hermione smiled at the redhead. "It's ok Gin. Let's go shall we?" They made their way across the Alley and they went into the new café the "Magic Frog". The sat in the corner and they ordered two cups of hot chocolate. They were chatting about many random things until Hermione brought up the wrong topic. Di's wedding. Suddenly Ginny frowned. She remained silent for a couple of minutes.
" What's wrong Gin?" Hermione couldn't help it. She felt bad about wasn't her fault after all.
"He can't be happy with me," she answered sadly. " I can not make him happy as she can.I can't make him smile as she can. But I'm not going to let him go so easily. We were and we still are meant to be together from." Hermione kept thinking for a second ."What do you mean?"But then it hit her. Ginny knew about everything.
" Do not pretend that you don't know. They have feelings for each other. It's quite obvious. But she lost her chance. I'm not going to let anything happen. Harry is my husband. He was always meant to be mine after all."
Hermione was shocked. How could Ginny be in a loveless marriage especially if she knew the situation. She just hoped that nothing bad was going to happen. But she was so wrong.

"Master they are after us. We should move quickly."
"No," the tall man in black hissed." In three days we will give them the final strike!"
