Luciuos looked around his study there were still a lot of wedding presents left on the sofa that he told the house elves to leave there so he could personally write thank you notes.
After the war he started seeing everything in a new light. He realized the irony of killing Mudbloods for a master who was a half blood himself. He watched as Voldemort killed his life long friends in his insanity. He wasn't sure if it was that or the fact that it was Harry Potter who helped him live that made him want to change.
Just the thought of James Potter's son saving his life after what he did to him made him start to realize a lot in a different perspective. The first thing he changed was Narcissa.
FlashbackHe walked into her private chamber after returning from the battlefield, and found her asleep in a chair by the window with her needlework on her lap. He went to sit beside her kissed her gently on the forehead and spoke
"Narcissa? Please wake up" he moved in to kiss her mouth when she jumped.
"Lucious what is it? Draco? Please tell me he's alright". Tears were forming very quickly in her eyes. "No he's alright he's at Hogwarts with Dumbledore, It's all over everything the dark lord is gone along with everyone that followed him with the exception of me." She looked at him with a mix of relief and curiosity " I killed him Narcissa he's gone. I think when he realized we were losing against the order he started killing the rest of the death eaters, when they were all gone he turned to me but just as he was about to kill me Potter was beside me and he put his wand with mine and aimed with me as we said the curse. He was gone the war is over." He looked down at his wife who shed a single tear that was running down her cheek.
"I wanted to talk to you to tell you, you can leave if you want. I don't want to keep you here anymore I realized how horrible I've been to you and I don't deserve a second chance but I will make it up to you." he confided almost getting teary eyed himself. He felt as if he had been controlled all those years. He never showed emotion he was raised not to although he admired and respected his father he hated him at the same time. His father being a vampire, turned that way when Luscious ran off one night and his father went looking for him only to be approached by 4 vampires.
"I know all this years ago we were forced to get married but I still had no right to treat you the way I did after Salazar died" he said gently, Narcissa started crying very loudly at her first born son's name "I know I blamed you and I shouldn't have it was not your fault he died it was no ones" he was crying now the first time he had cried since that night when he was 5 years old. "So I'm letting you go I'll sing the papers, if you want with no need of explaining I owe that much at least to have a happy life"
"Lucious?" she asked through her sobs
"Yes?" he looked at her wiping his eyes
"What are you going to do now? Won't they put you in Askaban? I don't want you to go there." She said her sobs growing louder
"I don't know, but whatever they decide I know I deserve it" he turned and walked out to his own chamber. What was going to happen to him?
