I know, I know Its been like forever! I have had such a hard time writing this chapter and I hope I don't disappoint.
I didn't send it to my beta because I wanted to get it out as soon as I could so there might be some errors. If there is anything major and it annoys you I will try to go back and fix it if you let me know about it.
Please read, enjoy, and review.
The thing about Lust is…
Hermione waited anxiously for Harry to come.
She knew it would not be quick and there was a high likelihood that she would be found with the children before they got there.
She held her wand tightly thinking over all the curses she had ever learned (which was a lot) in her head.
She thought about the training she had received from Harry before and during the war.
She would be able to at least fend off Lucious Malfoy until the boys arrived.
Staring at her children she could not help but think of Draco.
He was her husband now and she couldn't help but to be a bit angry at him.
He had not told her about the letter that he received.
Was he trying to hide it from her? Had he been actually thinking it over is that why he left her unguarded?
That is why she sent the message to Harry and not him.
She didn't know if she could trust him.
After about twenty minutes she heard someone coming up the stairs. Before she could find a place to hide Astoria was through the door with a masked death eater behind her.
Hermione snickered when she saw her face. Astoria had a large black eye.
"You bitch you cursed me then you hit me. You will pay for this. You are in a house full of death eaters did you really think that you could get away with that stupid little stunt of yours?"
Hermione grinned. "Astoria you have already seen me perform non verbal wand less magic and now I have my wand back. Do you really want to try me right now? You don't even know how to do a simple healing spell to get rid of a black eye."
Astoria turned to the death eater at her side. "What are you waiting on you idiot get her?"
Hermione laughed as the death eater shook his head. "No way, I know what she is capable of and I don't feel like being hexed to death right now."
Astoria stomped her feet throwing a tantrum. "But I don't have my wand Granger stole it."
Hermione cleared her throat and raised her wand at Astoria. "Its Malfoy now, you will do well to remember that."
Astoria just sneered then wrapped her arms around the death eater and nuzzled her head into his chest. "Please Goyle."
Hermione sucked in a breath. She thought that Goyle was on her side. He and Crabbe had apologized to her.
She should have known better than to trust a slytherin.
She gave Goyle a smirk that befitted her new name as a Malfoy. "What did the whore promise you Goyle? To let you in her pants if you helped to get rid of me? I hope you know she is lying; she is only doing this to get to Draco. She will dump you to the side once this is over and run strait to Draco, who will never in a million years have her."
Astoria began to walk towards Hermione "Take that back you stupid Mudblood my Draco is just confused right now. Once you are gone he will listen to his father and my father and marry me."
Hermione grinned wickedly "See Goyle, all she cares about is Draco not you. You know if Draco
Finds out that you had anything to do with this he will kill you right?"
Goyle removed his mask and stared at Hermione. He knew she was telling the truth and he was scared of Draco.
Hermione smiled at him. "It's not your fault you fell for this whore Goyle. I will explain everything to Draco he will understand. Just help me get my babies out of here."
Astoria turned to him and gave him a sexy (or so she thought) smile. "Goyle don't listen to her
You know I care about you. As his friends we just need to get Draco free of this stupid Mudblood and her horrible off spring."
Goyle looked down at her seriously and cleared his throat. "If you really care for me Astoria you will! Kiss me right now."
Astoria gave him a disgusted look and began to back away.
Hermione tightened her grip on her wand and raised it again to Astoria.
"Goyle I suggest you choose your side right now because I am about to hex her into oblivion."
Goyle grabbed her before she could get any further and turned her to face Hermione.
Hermione gave a sneer befitting any Slytherin and pulled up her wand at Astoria she sent a curse at her wrapping her body in rope then sent a "Stupefy" at her knocking her out.
Goyle gave Hermione a weak smile and went to say something but Hermione held her hand up.
"I understand Goyle you don't have to say anything. Lust can cloud anyone's judgment; I have three little precious souls as proof of that right now. Now please help me get them out of here."
Goyle looked around. "Grang...I mean Malfoy there are at least twenty death eaters down stairs right now and two posted at every entrance or exit of the manor. I don't know how we could get out."
Hermione began to chew on her lip nervously. There had to be a way out of there. She had to get out.
"I sent a patronis to Harry telling him where I was and I am sure that he and Ron and Draco will be here soon. Along with whomever else they can bring with them. Just go downstairs and by me some time or at least warn me if someone else is coming up the stairs."
Goyle nodded and put his mask back on leaving the room.
Hermione sat went to the basinets again and looked down at her children. She knew they had to be hungry and scared but she couldn't do anything about it, she felt like horrible mother.
Suddenly Hermione heard screaming from the floor below. She then heard the tell-tell signs of battle something which she had wished she would never hear again.
She heard hexes and curses being thrown and things being blown up.
Suddenly the door to the nursery burst open she turned quickly and threw a hex missing the person and hitting the door frame shattering it to pieces.
She winced when she saw Draco ducted down avoiding the hit. "Jesus Hermione you almost killed me."
Hermione felt her heart swell she didn't know how much his appearance would actually affect her.
Draco ran to her and tried to embrace her but she backed away and kept her wand up and aimed.
"Why did you not tell me about the letter Draco?"
Draco shook his head "Hermione you don't understand, I knew you would demand I followed my father's wishes and I couldn't Hermione. I couldn't lose you."
Hermione felt her trust go up a little more.
Draco you knew he had our children and you knew a way to get them back and you didn't tell me you. You had them drug me so I wouldn't be 'Hysterical'. "
Draco sighed. "Hermione now is not the time to argue about this we have to get the babies out of here."
Hermione sighed but nodded.
They both reached into the basinets, but before they could pick up the babies
There was a loud explosion outside of the room and Goyle came running into the room.
"Hermione are you..."
He stopped when Draco held up his wand about to hex him when Hermione stopped him.
"No Draco, he realized the error of his ways he is helping now. Goyle what happened you were supposed to warn me?"
Goyle looked down. "Sorry they took me off guard I had to explain to Potter what I was doing before he hexed me he almost killed me."
Hermione nodded and looked to Draco. "We need to get out of here now Draco."
Draco nodded and picked up Ares, and Ladon. While Hermione picked up Aphrodite.
Goyle lead the way down the stairs so that if they encountered anyone they would see him first.
Suddenly Goyle was shot back nearly missing Hermione hitting the wall instead.
The group looked down into the face of a death eater. All three of them wielded there wands and threw hexes at the death eater.
When all three hexes hit him he went flying back and against a wall out cold.
Going through the main room Hermione and Draco both turned and pulled out their wands protectively.
Hermione passed Ron, Harry, and Ginny who were throwing curse's and hexes left and right.
When Harry saw Hermione he waived to the floo. "It is set up for you to be able to floo back to Hogwarts, Go hurry."
They ran through the house trying to find a floo that was not guarded.
Finally they found one in a sitting room.
That's when Lucious Malfoy stepped in front of them.
Lucious began to laugh.
"I should have known that the Mudblood would figure out a way to escape."
"I saw Astoria in the nursery, how noble of you Miss Granger you didn't kill her. I knew you didn't have what it took to be a Malfoy. "
Draco held his wand up higher to his father. "She is a Malfoy whether you like it or not. These children are you grandchildren. They have Malfoy blood."
Lucious sneered "The Children I can live with seeing as they are going to be very powerful and help me rise to power, but your little wifey has to be taken care of. It's not too late Draco you can still get into my good graces. Just kill her Draco kill your little Mudblood wife and I will let you stand beside me as I take over as the new Dark Lord."
Draco shook his head. "No, never I love Hermione even though it was a one night stand that brought us together I know this was meant to be we are meant to be together forever whether you like it or not. You will never touch her or my children."
Lucious laughed. "What are you going to do about it boy. You don't have the guts to kill me. You're weak! That's why you could not go through with the dark! Lords wishes. You have never been good enough."
Hermione felt sorry for her husband as he stood there wand at the ready pointed at his own father.
She saw him shaking and just wanted to comfort him she knew he was so angry but just could not avada his own father.
Lucious sneered at his son. "Go ahead Draco, kill me."
Draco began to shake even harder. He wanted to kill him so bad but something inside of him was stopping him.
Draco went to open his mouth but before he could get anything out there was a green light shot from Lucious' wand Hermione quickly threw up a shielding charm and held it Suddenly there was a green light shot from behind Lucious and female voice yelled "Avada Kadavra."
Draco and Hermione watched in amazement as Lucious Malfoy's eyes widened in shock then went dull and lifeless.
When Lucious fell to the floor Hermione and Draco were greeted with the site of a clearly shaken Narsicca Malfoy.
She still had her wand up and was quivering.
Draco ran to his mother and embraced her in a hug.
"It's alright mother its okay. He was trying to kill us you were doing the right thing."
Narsicca looked down at the body of her dead husband. Tears quickly began to fall from her eyes.
"You know he wasn't always like this. Yes, he was a pompous ass that believed purebloods were superior but he was never a killer."
Draco nodded and hugged her tighter.
They were then brought back to reality when a loud explosion happened right beside them.
Draco looked to Hermione and gave her Ares. "Take him and the others and get to Hogwarts go to our rooms and ward them. I have to stay and help fight."
Hermione nodded and she understood she would have stayed to fight too if she could.
Hermione and Narsicca jumped into the floo and immediately screamed "Hogwarts."
When they made it back to the castle they ran as fast as they could to the head's dorm and through the picture.
Narsicca immediately began toward the room and when Hermione sat down the children she did
The same thing.
No one was getting through their wards.
Hermione then began to worry over the children running into action trying to feed them, change them.
Suddenly Narsicca grabbed her.
"Hermione you need to sit down. You're still bleeding from giving birth you're very pale you need to rest."
Hermione was feeling very light headed but had been holding on for the children.
She shook her head, but suddenly a large waive of dizziness hit her and the last thing she
Remembered was seeing the worried face of Narsicca Malfoy before everything went black.
Hope you liked it. Please review I like the good or the bad. Thanks.
