Here it is Chapter 25. Enjoy.

The room was filled with the sound of coughing. The only movement was Lana's body shaking with the force of the coughs as they rippled through her. Without any hesitation his feet moved to her bedside. He helped her sit forwards and positioned her pillows.

"Hey, hey its okay." Draco said as her coughs eventually subsided.

"Hey." Her chest heaved with each shuddering breath she took.

Draco helped her to lean back before looking around the room for the nurse. The door to her office opened. Lana's eyes closed and her breathing slowed to an almost normal pace.

"Ah Mr Malfoy, we need to move your sister into a private room soon." Pomfrey said as she walked over to the bed.

She placed her hand on Lana's forehead and pulled it away almost instantly. Her hand was red. She blew on her hand before shaking her head and pulling a small tub from the pocket on her apron.

"Why? Is she okay? What's going on with her?" Draco asked the panic clear in his voice.

"As her health is beginning to decline so is her control over her Veela powers."

"What do you mean?"

"Lana will lose control of her Veela until she sees her mate and I am assuming the two of you want to keep your heritage from the school. If you want it to stay secret her staying here will reveal it. And it is safer that way."

"Safer? What do you mean by that?" Draco asked his eyes never leaving his sisters face.

"Well when a Veela has no control over their powers, they can be known to attack. So it is safer that while she has no control she is in a safe environment surrounded by people her Veela knows."

"Okay. When are you planning on moving her?" Draco asked rubbing his chin.

"We plan on moving her as soon as possible. There is a room being sorted for her as we speak."

"Okay. Can I stay with her? Until her mate gets here."

"I forgot to mention, you and Miss Granger will need to stay with her. Your sister's wings will grow and so will yours."

"Oh okay. Do you happen to know who her mate is so we can let him know to come?" Draco asked scratching the back of his head.

"No I don't sorry you will have to ask her. She's coming around now so you can ask her now. I'll be back when her room is ready." Pomfrey placed her hand on his shoulder before turning and walking back to her office.

"Hey Lana. Pomfrey is going to move you into a private room because you are going to lose control of your powers soon and it's safer." Draco said softly as his sister slowly sat up.

"Lose control? What do you mean? I can't lose control. Draco you need to help me, I can't lose control." Lana said panic rising in her voice.

"Lana, calm down. Calm down, its okay. We need to get your mate here. Now can you tell me who he is so we can get him to come?"

"No, no we can't worry him I'll be fine."

"Lana you're not fine."

"No. No I don't want to worry him. I'm fine. I'm fine." Draco gulped and could tell her fever was getting worse.

"Lana listen to me, we need to get him here." Draco said grabbing her shoulder as she rocked herself as she mumbled.

"I'm fine. I'm fine." She mumbled repeatedly to herself.

Draco sat on her bed and leant so she could see him, "Lana you're not okay. But you will be when you tell me who he is."

She looked up then, her eyes filled with panic, "Get Ginny. Get Ginny." She mumbled.

"Lana she'll be in lessons. Just tell me." Lana shook her head and leant back the colour draining from her face.

"Get Ginny." She said before closing her eyes.

Draco sighed and stood up.

"Sorry Professor, could I possibly borrow Ginny Weasley?" Draco asked the potions Professor.

"Oh yes of course Mr Malfoy. Miss Weasley? Don't worry I will make sure your potion gets finished my dear." Ginny hurriedly packed her things into her bag and the two left the classroom.

"Is she okay?" Ginny asked as they made their way to the hospital wing.

"Pomfrey wants to move her into another room. She needs her mate here. She wouldn't tell me, she just said I needed to get you."

"Okay." Ginny said before pushing the doors open.

"Hey. Draco are you okay?" Hermione asked as they walked in.

"I've been better. Is she still awake?" Hermione nodded and moved from the seat so Ginny could sit down.

Hermione laced her fingers through Draco's and walked with him over to the nurse's desk.

"Do you want me to get him? Or do you want your brother to?" Ginny whispered keeping an eye on Draco and Hermione.

"I would have asked him but its better if you do it." Lana croaked not opening her eyes.

"Anyone else could have asked him."

"Yes but I trust you and so does he."

"Come on you trust your brother more." Ginny said a slight blush rising up her neck.

"Yes but you're the only person that knows. It would take time to explain to anyone else and I don't have the time." Ginny gave her a small smile.

"Okay how do you really feel?"

Lana finally opened her eyes and looked at her, "Like shit."

"Thanks for the honesty."

"Anytime."

"Well I should go and let him know then. Bye." Ginny waved to Hermione and Draco before making her way to the Gryffindor common room.

Ron waved to her as she stepped into the common room and beckoned her over. She waved and mouthed that she'd be there in a minute. She made her way up the stairs and dropped her bag by the desk. She picked up her quill and began to write.

"So we need to be in the room with her?" Hermione asked as Madam Pomfrey walked into her office.

"Yeah." Draco shrugged his shoulders and leant against the desk.

"Are you okay?" she asked taking his hand.

"I'm fine." Hermione raised an eyebrow, "Honestly I'm fine. Don't worry."

"Okay, Okay. So has she told you yet?"

"No she wouldn't. She just told me I needed to get Ginny. She trusts the youngest Weasley but not her brother." Draco looked down at their hands.

Hermione placed two fingers under his chin and lifted his head to make him look at her, "She still trusts you. Maybe Ginny saw her with her mate and she had to explain. We don't know. And once she has recovered we can ask her."

"Yeah." Draco wrapped his arm around her waist pulling her closer.

Hermione leant up and wrapped her arms around his neck. He leant down until his breath was on her lips.

"Mr Malfoy." Pomfrey said behind them, making them jump apart, "We will be moving your sister in a moment."

"Okay. Do you need any help moving her?" Draco asked as Hermione looked to the floor a blush slowly rising up her cheeks.

"No. Don't let me interrupt." Pomfrey said with a small smile before walking over to Lana's bed.

"That wasn't embarrassing at all." Hermione said before taking Draco's hand and following the nurse out into the corridor.

"So she should be comfortable now. Shout if you need anything." Pomfrey said before leaving the little room and closing the door behind her.

Hermione slid her arm around his waist and rested her head on his shoulder, "You look worried. She'll be okay."

"What if she's not? What do I do then?"

"Draco don't think like that. She'll get better."

"I can't help but think like that, she's my twin sister. If anything happened to her I couldn't live with myself. I couldn't go home in a few weeks time without her."

"Draco I know. She's a fighter. She'll get through this." Draco laughed a little.

"You have no idea." He mumbled before saying louder, "Yeah she's strong. She managed to hide it for so long so she'll get better."

Hermione kissed his cheek and opened her mouth to say something but stopped when Lana began thrashing and moaning on the bed. Draco rushed over and attempted to calm her. Lana woke up as Draco placed his hand on her arm and screamed as her wings ripped through her back pushing her upright. Draco let out a groan as his grew from his shoulder blades. Hermione gasped and stepped back, not taking her eyes off his grey wings.

"Do you want me to get Pomfrey?" Hermione asked nervously as Draco attempted her get Lana to lie back.

"Yeah that would be helpful." Hermione noticed his eyes were black.

She gulped as she spotted Lana's glowing hands. She span around and rushed from the room. She ran into the hospital wing and grabbed the nurse.

"Lana's awake and doesn't look to good." Hermione said, panic rising in her throat.

"Okay." Pomfrey placed the tray she was holding down and rushed back to the private room across the hall from the hospital wing.

They pushed open the door to find Lana and Draco curled up on the floor. Hermione gasped and rushed to Draco as Pomfrey ran to Lana's side. Hermione grabbed his arm and helped him to his feet.

"Are you okay?" she asked wrapping her arm around his waist to keep him steady.

"Yeah, yeah I'm fine." Draco said swaying slightly.

Pomfrey conjured two chairs up and Hermione guided him to one and helped him sit down.

"Hey what happened to your wings?" Hermione asked running a finger over the edge of one.

"What do you mean?" He asked watching her fingers trace his wing.

"I thought they were white."

"My wings will change with each stage."

"Oh. I liked them white."

"So did I. they went with my hair and made my devilish good looks even better." He said before kissing her cheek.

She pushed his shoulder and smiled. She rested her head on his shoulder. She lifted her head as someone knocked on the door. She looked at Draco before standing and walking to the door. She pulled it open and sighed as Professor McGonagall walked in followed by Ginny.

"Mr Weasley is here for Lana." The headmistress said standing to the side so he could walk in.

Hermione looked over her shoulder to Draco and she saw that Lana had begun to stir. She looked back and gasped. Draco stood up and walked over to Hermione.

"Fred what are you doing here?" Hermione asked breaking the silence.

"I'm Lana's mate."

Its official Lana's mate has been revealed. Were you expecting that?

I hope you liked this chapter. Was it worth the wait?

It seems like a Guest to the story was correct in guessing Lana's mate. How did you guess it was one of the Weasley twins?
