*I own Erik, Layla and this storyline unless someone has already
copyrighted it
It had taken several days for Draco to get over his sickness. He had told everyone that he'd had a stomach bug but only Hermione, Ron and Professor McGonagall knew the truth. The truth was that he had been hiding in his room for the past week, trying desperately to accept the fact that his daughter was as good as dead.
The ministry had been informed and they had since sent several guards to the school. The men were supposed to be watching Layla and everyone she associated with but they were not to be obvious. The students had been told that the ministry had just decided this as a precaution. He was sure, though, that Layla would have worked out the real reason for their presence. She wasn't stupid and she would have quickly realised everything. Including the fact that she could easily be overcome by stronger wizards, unless she had been secretly practising. It would be well worth her effort if she was and if she really was planning to take over the world then she would be practising. It was worth investigating.
Half an hour later Draco had called his son to his office and was questioning Erik vigorously.
"Dad I don't know what Layla does. Firstly, I'm in 3rd year and she's a 1st year so I never see her in class. Secondly, she's a Slytherin and I'm a Ravenclaw so I never see her out of class either. I only ever see her at meal times. I know she's friends with Estelle Frankie and she's dating Krag Flint."
"Krag Flint!" Draco gasped in shock. It just couldn't be Marcus Flint's daughter that Layla was dating. It was just sick and twisted the way his darling daughter had turned out. It was ironic when he thought about it; Draco had done everything in his power to make sure his children didn't turn out like his old self and he had succeeded with one but the other was far worse than he could ever have been and he just didn't know how he could stop her.
Later Draco was, again, talking to Hermione and Ron about his present situation. The constant sickness in his stomach was gone and all that remained was a fear of Layla being sent to Azkaban rather than dying. He knew that he would rather his darling were dead than suffer the horrible place that was Azkaban. For some reason Ron had tried to joke about the whole thing as though he actually found something funny about Draco's situation,
"Well at least after she dies, she won't be able to date Flint!" After several more revolting jokes, Ron seemed to take the hint and finally shut up.
"I just don't understand why," Draco constantly asked both himself and others.
"Em, Draco, I was doing some research today and I found out that, well, it's because of Pansy," Hermione told him, timidly. Not even bothering to answer Draco simply looked at her in astonishment. Hermione continued,
"Well, you know that Seltavigo's ancestor pledged the support of his whole family until a worthy heir was produced," pausing for a moment to let the information sink in, Hermione continued. "I discovered today that Pansy is Seltavigo's granddaughter. God knows how it happened but it did and now your children are Slytherin's heirs. And for some reason it's only the females of the family that are affected which explains why Pansy is so damn evil, you and Erik are safe but Layla is indeed Slytherin's heir," Hermione finished sadly.
