"You won't get away with this," she whispered in his ear, "...but I think that you know this already."

Draco somehow managed to suppress a smirk. He lowered his lips to her ear so Weasley wouldn't hear.

"You are not in the position to threaten anyone. So just calm down and let me be the hero."

He felt her stiffen underneath him. This was too easy.

"I can't do this anymore, she whispered lightly into his ear, "look at what its done to me."

Draco said nothing; he just simply walked out of the library with Alessandra in his arms. He ignored the shouts of Hermione, Ron, and the other students in the library. He simply walked around the horrified librarian. He just walked out...and nobody tried to stop him...they didn't even attempt to follow him...that was the power he held over almost the entire school save, Dumbledore and maybe even McGonagall.

Once he reached his destination, Draco set Alessandra down.

"Alright let's see."

Before his very eyes, Alessandra changed.

The blood and chains were gone, her hair was once again perfect, and the twinkle in her eyes was back again. She looked good.

"So how exactly did he hurt you, you look fine to me."

Alessandra didn't say anything, she just looked.

It took Draco a minute to catch on. When it hit him, he nodded...he understood.
