Disclaimer: I do not own any Harry Potter characters, I own Remy and practically all the characters from the first chapter.
A/N: I wanted more than one review but here's a new chapter anyways.
"Are you alright? Hey, are you okay?" Draco shook the girl in his arms. He was out flying, like he did every morning but this morning, when he was about to head in, he saw a purple cloud form and a girl drop from it. On reflex, he darted forward on his broom and caught the girl before she hit the ground. She opened her eyes and seemed confused and frightened, so he slowly flew her back to the ground.
"It's okay, we're on the ground now." She started crying and he didn't know what to do, he only saw his mother cry from after his father hit her. Before he could think of what she was doing, she had wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him. Not ever being kissed like this, he stood there shocked.
"I'm sorry, I thought I was going to die. Thank you for saving me."
"It's okay, what was that you came out of?"
"I'd rather not say if you don't mind." He knew that it had to be some kind of dark magic, so he didn't press the question.
"Sure. Come on let's get you inside and dry." Remy then noticed she was still drenched from the rain.
"By the way I'm Draco."
"Remy." She smiled at him and he led her to the mansion.
______________________
The moment Draco came in carrying Remy he was surrounded by house elves. Remy had never seen a house elf upclose before except in books.
"Does sir need help?"
"Are sir and sir's friend hungry?"
"Does a room need to be ready for sir's guest?"
"I need a warm blanket and a new set of clothes for this lady. Make two cups of hot chocolate and bring some muffins." They elves ran away, each doing a task assigned. He sat her down on a couch and wrapped her in the blanket an elf had just brought over.
"You can change your clothes when ever you warm up some. So are you a witch?" She nodded and smiled.
"I forgot purebloods cared about it that much. Before you ask, yes I am a pureblood." He sat down next to her and watched her. They heard someone walking down the hall.
Lucius, shit. Why would I ever think Draco was alone? She stood up to run away but as soon as she was standing the room began swirling around her and went black.
"Remy, are you okay?" Was the last thing she heard before passing out.
______________________
"Who is this girl?"
"She..she fell from the sky, I caught her while I was out flying."
"Because you caught her, you think you can keep her? That's not how it works boy. After she wakes up, send her home."
"But Father.." Draco was interrupted by a loud slap, she assumed was to his face.
"Don't question me, boy. Wake her up and send her home." She heard the man walk away and then she opened her eyes to see Draco staring out the window rubbing his cheek.
"Are you okay?" Her voice startled him but he smiled and walked over to her bed.
"I'm fine, how bout you?" She sat up and noticed she was now in dry clothes and smiled back at him.
"I'm better now, thank you. I guess I should be leaving though." He nodded and looked at the floor.
"Do you need a ride home? I can fly you if you want." He looked back up at her.
"Actually, do you know any good hotels around here? I have no place to go, I'm...an orphan."
"An orphan? How were your parents killed?" He looked at her in pity.
"Why do people always think automatically, that if you're an orphan, your parents were killed?" She snapped at him and he jumped back some.
"I'm sorry. I was disowned by my mother, since she didn't want a mistake to ruin her life. I got her back for it though, that's why I'm here."
"You're here because of your mother?" She could tell he was confused but she knew she couldn't tell him everything.
"You see I hated my mother for what she did to me, ruining my life and all, so I...I..I did something about it."
"Like what?"
She looked away from him, not wanting to see his reaction to what she was about to say. "I killed her." She whispered.
"You did what!" He was scared what his father would think of him, harboring a murderer in their home. He then saw tears running down her face again and he calmed down.
"I hated her so much and now she has paid for what she did to me. After I killed her though, I lost my two best friends. I...I didn't want to be alone again, so I found a spell and I came here. But now you hate me and so I'm still going to be alone. Why did you have to catch me!" She started sobbing and she finally looked at him, he was staring at her with sadness in his eyes.
"Please don't cry. I, for one, am glad I caught you. I'll ask my father if you can stay here, okay?" She smiled brightly and hugged him.
"Oh thank you. I knew you weren't such a bad guy."
"Huh?"
"Oh, I mean you..uh..seem like a nice guy...unlike your father. Well from the impression I already got from him." She smiled at him, hoping he didn't see through her lie.
"Oh, okay. Well there's some food on the table for you to eat, I'll go talk to my father about you." She nodded. He got up and left as she walked over to the table and began feasting on all the foods in front of her.
______________________
"Ah Draco, did you send that girl home yet? The ball is tonight and I don't want her getting in the way."
"Actually Father, I was wondering if she could stay here for the rest of the summer? If you didn't mind?" Draco stepped up to Lucius, who was drinking in his office.
"What! Send the damn girl home and leave it be!" He slammed the glass down, which caused Draco to wince at the sound.
"I don't mean to go against your wishes father, but she has no home and no family."
"No home or family? What do you mean boy?"
"She's an orphan, sir. Under certain circumstances she used a spell to transport her away from where she lived, to here."
"A spell? What spell?" He seemed interested in this information.
"I don't know but when she appeared she was falling out of a dark purple cloud. It looked like dark magic to me but then she is so young...."
"Yes, yes. Let me talk to her. You stay here, boy." He stood up and walked past Draco, closing the door in Draco's face.
______________________
Remy was finishing her meal and was starting to wonder when Draco would be coming back. She heard the door open behind her and looked to see, not Draco, but Lucius Malfoy.
Oh shit. Is he going to kill me? He obviously noticed she was frightened and put up a hand to calm her.
"I'm not going to hurt you, but I have some questions." He sat down in a seat next to her and smiled, taking in the girl's appearance. For a child, she looked very beautiful. Her long raven black hair reached almost to her waist and her green eyes looked like sparkling emeralds, she had a fairly good tan and an athletic body from all the walking, climbing and muggle fighting she practiced. He then looked down from her face to her breasts and noticed she was already beginning to develop and he smiled. Following his gaze, Remy became outraged by how perverted he was.
"What did you want to ask me, sir?" Trying to hide the anger in her voice but not succeeding, she could tell by the smirk on his face.
"Now, now child. You are in my house, so you will respect me if you are to stay here."
"Well the only way I'll be staying here anyways, is if you keep your perverted gazes focused somewhere else!" She raised her voice, not holding back any of her anger now.
"Fair enough, as long as I like your answers to these questions." She calmed down some and nodded.
"What is your name?"
"Remy Leona Stan..Moray."
"Stanmoray?"
"No it's Moray....I think. Before I knew who my mother was, I had the last name Stanford. But since I've killed her, I might as well take her name."
"Killed her?" He looked at her in shock.
"Oh shit, he didn't tell you that part huh? Are you not going to let me stay here now?"
"It depends on why you killed her." She sighed and decided might as well just tell him everything.
"She put me in an orphanage before I was even a year old because she didn't want a 'mistake' to ruin her life. I grew up thinking I was a muggle and imagine how that would be. Anyway, I found out by means of two witches that I was in fact a witch. Since I never told them my mother's name, all they knew was that I was a pureblood, since they did a test on me." She saw him seem to relax some when he was reassured of her bloodtype.
"I learned all about witchcraft and they taught me lots of spells. They taught me mostly spells to get along while I was back at the orphanage, a few cool ones and some dark arts too. My personal favorites were the dark ones since I had a natural flair for them, or so Daisy said. Daisy was one of the witches, the other was Carmen. They owned a store, that's how I met them." Lucius began to get impatient with the useless information, so she decided to keep going.
"Anyway, one day I was visiting them at their store and I noticed a book there I had never seen before. It was called..."
"Dark Spells & Incantations for the Pure." He finished for her and smiled.
"Yeah...how'd you.." He motioned for her to continue and she dropped it.
"Well since I liked dark arts, I took it from them, I figured they wouldn't mind since I borrowed from them all the time. After putting it in my bag, I went in the back to see them and there was someone else there. We were introduced and she immediately knew who I was and I made her take me to my mother. She did and when I got there, my mother didn't hug me or say she was sorry for doing such a horrible thing to me. No! What she did was slap me and tell me to leave and never come back. I hated her more than I had, which I didn't know was possible." She tightened her hands into fists and her eyes began to cloud over as she remembered, her birthmark beginning to feel warm.
"I told her I wanted to do one thing and then I'm be gone forever and she told me to do it."
"And you killed her?"
"A knife to the lung. I wasn't going to use magic on her. She made me grow up a Muggle then I would kill her like a Muggle. After that, Daisy and Carmen couldn't even look at me anymore and when I was thinking about running away, the book, I was holding it and it began to glow. I had looked through the pages earlier but they were blank, but when the glow disappeared, there it was."
"The transportation spell...I thought you had to be very powerful to use that spell. You must be a great witch. Tell me, how many continents did you travel?" He seemed very interested in all this.
"Three continents and about 85 years, give or take a year." She was proud of her accomplishment.
"Young lady, you may stay here as long as you like. But on the condition that I may teach you a few things and show you to some people. I don't think anymore questions are needed. On a more fatherly note, I think Draco is quite taken with you. He has good taste you see, gets it from me." She nodded and blushed.
"Oh and don't hit Draco anymore. I like the way his face looks, I'd rather kiss him without hurting him." She smirked and he could almost see some of the Malfoy smirk in there, but she made it her own.
He chuckled some, reluctantly nodded and headed towards the door. She opened the door for him, with a wave of her hand. He turned around and noticed she had no wand and smiled at his new pupil. And then looked forward at Draco, standing in the hall.
"I told you to stay in my office, boy!" He raised his hand to slap him but the slap never came. Draco looked up as his father's hand seemed to be stuck in midair.
"Lucius, did you already forget out little deal?" She let his hand go and watched as he turned around furious. He walked over to her and grabbed her right arm, looked strangely at her and then walked away.
"I can't believe you just did that." He walked into the room and sat down in the chair his father had previously been sitting in.
"How much did you hear?" She looked at him with pain in her eyes.
"All of it." She looked at the ground, she didn't want him to know her horrible past.
"It's okay that I know, I won't tell anyone and you'll have someone to talk to about it."
She smiled at him and hugged him. "So you like me, huh?" He blushed and she kissed him on the cheek, which caused him to turn a deeper shade of red.
"Now then, what do you do for fun around here?" He laughed and took her hand, dragging her outside.
______________________
They were outside playing Exploding Snaps when Lucius appeared outside and motioned for them to come there. They ran over to him and he glared at Draco.
"Did you forget who was visiting tonight?"
"Sorry sir, I..."
"Don't apologize. Go get ready while I talk to Miss Moray." Draco looked over at Remy and then nodded to his father and walked inside.
"Now then, my dear. Do you have any clothes to wear for a formal occasion?"
"I think I brought something, just in case I didn't die." She smirked and headed towards the door but stopped and turned around.
"After I put it on would you like to approve it?"
"Yes. Come to my office when you are dressed. Thank you for showing me some amount of respect." He smiled.
"You are the head of the manor and were gracious enough to take me into your home. Not many people would do that for a complete stranger, especially a young girl." She smiled and nodded before walking to her room.
I think I will be able to mold her quite nicely to suit me. He smirked and walked inside to wait in his office for her.
______________________
When she finally walked into his office, he stopped what he was doing immediately to stare at her. Remy slowly turned so he could look at her and decide if she looked okay. She was wearing a long emerald green silk dress which hugged what curves she already had and flared at the bottom. The color brought out her eyes nicely.
He then noticed her jewelry which caused him to smirk. She was wearing a silver necklace with the Slytherin emblem on it and had silver studs in her lower ears and a small silver hoop in the top of her right ear. She also had three small braids that came from each side of her face to the back where they were tied together and hung down her back. Before he could give his approval, Draco walked in and gasped.
"You look....like a goddess."
"You must not have seen many women if you think that." She frowned and looked back at Lucius.
"Well, what do you think?"
"I'll have to agree with my son that you look magnificent and I have seen many women. Did you do all this by yourself?"
She nodded. "I went to a ball once with Carmen, so she gave me this dress. As for the jewelry, Daisy always said I'd make a great Slytherin if...I ever attended. So she gave me lots of snake jewelry and clothing, most of it has the Slytherin emblem which I believe is this, correct?" She held up her necklace and Lucius nodded.
"I like snakes anyways so I didn't really care much. Oh and for my hair? Carmen and I always did each other's hair since we both had long hair. I remembered this looked very beautiful on her and I was hoping it'd look good on me too."
"It does." Lucius smiled and then began looking at her again, in his perverted way. He saw her shake her finger at him before everything went black.
"What the hell!" He was very furious and she could tell.
"I told you not too look at me like that, you sick bastard!" She waved her hand and his vision returned.
"Do it again and I won't give you it back for a whole month." He could tell she was serious and this frightened him but he wouldn't let it show.
"You will respect me while you're in this house, do you understand me?" He stepped towards her and was now in her face.
"I will respect you if I am respected. I don't give respect to filthy old men and as for the threat? I thought you wanted me here? I have money, I can leave here and you'll never see me again." Normally this wouldn't bother him, but he wanted to use her and her power. He thought if he possessed such a power, he could be the next dark lord.
"Fine. You two head down, the guests are arriving. Oh and Miss Moray? Let's keep your heritage a secret. Just continue using Stanford as your surname." She frowned but nodded and the two headed down the stairs arm in arm.
______________________
Most of the night Lucius kept pulling Remy away from Draco to go meet people and she would keep sneaking away from him to rejoin Draco. The only person which really stood out in the introductions was Draco's mother, Narcissa. She was a beautiful blonde with a great personality but she looked a little stuck up with you first meet her. Close to the end of the ball she walked back over to Draco but she noticed he was talking to a blonde who was all over him. Not wanting to interrupt his conversation, she walked past him to find a way out but he noticed her and pulled her over.
"Remy, this is Pansy Parkinson. Pansy, this is Remy Stanford." Remy politely extended her hand but Pansy just glared at her as if she were scum.
"Get you filthy hand away from me, mudblood." Remy was shocked and then recovered and tried to hold back her anger, for manner's sake. She noticed most of the people around them began to watch when they heard there was a mudblood present.
"Excuse me? What did you call me?"
"A filthy little mudblood." Pansy raised her voice so more people could hear and she smiled at Remy thinking she was telling everyone what she was. Remy made her hands into fists and tried to control her anger as best she could.
"Draco, I thought your family didn't socialize with such lowly Muggles."
"Pansy she's...." Draco started but Remy interrupted him.
"No, let her think what she wants of me. Just because of my name, she thinks I can't possibly by a pureblood. She's just a dumb slut who thinks she can start throwing insults without consequence." Pansy grew furious and spit at her. The spit never made it to Remy, it stopped in midair and came back at Pansy, hitting her in the face.
Pansy, now insulted, tried to slap her but her hand was stopped and then both her arms were held behind her. Remy smiled and waved her hand slightly as the hold on Pansy's arms pulled tighter, making her scream out in pain.
"That's enough, Remy." Lucius stepped forward through the crowd and nodded towards Pansy.
"She started it. She had the nerve to call me a mudblood and then try and spit on me."
"Then let her father deal with her." Lucius looked towards one of the first gentlemen she met, who seemed to like her very much. He was walking through the crowd towards his daughter. Remy nodded in agreement and Pansy fell to the floor crying.
"Sorry for ruining your ball, Lucius. I'm going to bed early, goodnight everyone." She nodded towards Lucius and then looked at Draco who wouldn't meet her gaze. She nodded towards him as well and then walked gracefully out of the room and up the stairs.
______________________
Draco walked up the stairs to her room and knocked on the door. There was no answer so he knocked again and this time the door swung open to show a tear stained face, which he had seen often since he had met her. She was no longer in her beautiful gown. She was wearing a pair of jeans and a white tank top, her jewelry from earlier and now her hair was just in a ponytail. She didn't say anything to him, she didn't even look at him, she just opened the door and then walked back to her bed.
"I'm packed, so I'll be leaving now. Sorry again for ruining the ball, it wasn't my intention at all. That girl just got on my nerves and then my temper got the better of me." She finally looked up at him, he was just staring at her. She wiped the tears from her face and sat down on her bed, picking up her bag.
"If your girlfriend okay? I don't think I hurt her too badly, did I?" He could tell she was genuinely sorry for hurting Pansy.
"She'll be fine, well maybe not after her father is done with yelling at her for insulting you like that. And she's not my girlfriend, she'd like to be though. I'm only nice to her because my father makes me and because I'm nice to her, she thinks I'm in love with her or something. You were right, she is a dumb slut." She smiled and he walked over sitting on her bed next to her. She looked up into his eyes and he frowned.
"Why are you leaving? No one is making you go. Please stay here...with me?" He smiled and she kissed him. When she looked back at him, he was blushing a bright pink against his pale complexion.
"I take it everything is going okay?" They both jumped at the voice and looked over to see Lucius in the doorway, grinning at what he just witnessed.
"You are staying my dear, aren't you? I would hate to see you go...and by the looks of it, so would Draco." Draco blushed more before clearing his throat and standing up.
"Goodnight Remy."
"Goodnight Draco, Lucius." Lucius nodded as he closed the door behind Draco.
______________________
She smiled and then unpacked her things again and got into her pajamas, which consisted of a black tank top with a blue and white Chinese dragon on it and her froggy pants.
I'm glad Lucius isn't around now. The lecher would be too excited for his own good. Now if it was Draco, on the other hand, I may not mind as much. I wonder what he looks like under all his clothes? She mentally slapped herself.
Bad Remy! Don't think such things.
Why not? She began arguing with herself.
Because he's a year younger than you and he's short!
So? I bet he still has a great body for an eleven year old.
No, he doesn't!
Yes, he does!
No, he...wait a second, why am I arguing with myself? Oh shit, do I have one of those mental disorders?
No, you're just head over heels for a certain bleach blonde boy.
Oh, okay...hey wait a second, I am not!
Yes, you are and you know it!
Fine, but you have to keep it a secret, okay?
Sure, sure. Don't worry about it....HEY EVERYONE! REMY LOVES DRACO!
What? A new voice spoke up.
Draco who? She heard another one.
You know that one guy who saved her life? She heard at least two dozen people go "Ohhhh."
Hey, how many people are in there?
A lot. She heard all of the voices say at the same time.
Well shut up, okay? I wanna get some rest. She heard mumbles "Okay"s and "Whatever"s. She lied down in the queen sized bed and closed her eyes, drifting off into a peaceful sleep, thinking of none other than Draco Malfoy.
