Draco sat by Hermione's side for the longest time, watching her as she slept. 'I swear she is the most beautiful witch I've ever seen.' He smiled as he reached his hand to a lock of her hair that had misplaced itself on her pretty face and put it back behind her ear. He had to go back to work though, so he left her a fairly long note in green ink next to the bed on the nightstand. He apparates to his firm and gets back to where Hermione was about to finish her case, the trial date now set for Bellatrix. He had apparted the Death Eater to Azkaban till the trial.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hermoine slowly woke up, yawning. "Boy, was I tired, but that dream was too scary to be true."
*Flashback*
"Crucio!", he shouted, pointing his wand at her.
She screamed in pain and then fell down on the ground in an heap.
"Hermione? Hermione!", he shouts. "Voldemort, you fucking bastard! What have you done to her?"
Tom Riddle laughs evily and says, "Ahh.. Lucius's son, isn't it? You're the one who refused to become a loyal Death Eater for this bloody Mudblood? She can't be possibly worth that much to you anymore, can she?"
Draco was furious. He pointed his wand at Voldemort and shouted, "AVARA KEDAVERA!!!" Voldemort screamed in agony and then fell into a heap onto the cold, bare ground.
*End of Flashback*
"Wow, that was a crazy dream. But wait.... Something like that happened.. How did I get here?", she questioned herself as she turned to her side and saw a fairly long note:
Hermione,
Sweetheart, I'll explain everything to you when I get home after work. You've lost most of you're strength fighting off that fucking bastard Voldemort. Yes, he sent Bellatrix to kidnap you and then you almost beat him, too! I notified your firm that you won't be at work today due to present unfourtunate events and you should get plenty of rest. Dearest, I'm sorry that I didn't chase after you as soon as I could have, I knew that it would have been a Death Eater. We got rid of his, though, love, we killed the Dark Lord once and for all. That arrogant bastard will not ever try to harm you again. The Ministry of Magic has investigated further into the case and Bellatrix is currently thrown into Azkaban. She can't testify yet, but I heard something about her being the one who killed those Muggle. Anyway, this is too much information for you while you need you're rest. There is a kettle of hot tea on the nightstand, so have a cup, love.
I'll see you later.
Love,
Draco
Hermione smiled at the letter and looked over at the teapot. She took the floral, porclein teacup that was there and poured herself a cup of tea. She took a sip and sighed. 'Why the hell would Voldemort have come after me?'
She pondered on this for several minutes when she heard a voice, "Mistress Malfoy? Are you awake?"
She looked over to see their house elf, Korkey. She smiles and says, "Yes, Korkey, I'm awake."
The house elf entered into the bedroom and asked, "Mistress hasn't eaten since breakfast, Master told Korkey, ma'am. Would you like something to eat, ma'am?" The female house elf looked at Hermione with eager eyes promising to serve her.
"Not yet, dear. I'm going to wait until my husband arrives. Thank you, Korkey, you may take rest for the rest of the night. I'm going to fix dinner myself."
The house elf looked up at her master's wife in astonishment. "Korkey will help the Mistress in the kitchen later, thank you Mistress." She bowed and apparated.
Hermione smiled and nodded as she apparated. She got up slowly, with her wand and walked down the large staircase into the study. As she walked inside, she pointed her wand at the cold, bare fireplace and said, "Incendio!" The fireplace sprung to life with a vivid and lively fire. She grinned at her work and sat at the desk, writing her dearest a letter. She opened up the small drawer up at the front of his desk and pulled out a fresh piece of parchment along with a well of gold ink that changed to red as the person read the contents of the parchment and also a custom-made goose feather quill from Draco as a gift for no apparant reason. She took out a seal and put it aside. She starts to write:
Draco,
Dearest, thank you for bringing me back home and recusing me from that son of a bitch, Voldemort. I would have died if you weren't there for me. Also, thank you for helping me with this case assignment, I want to see Bellatrix rot in Azkaban, honestly. Wouldn't you? Well, I just woke up and read your kind letter. I'm not going to eat dinner till you get here, love. I'm in the study. See you in a few, Creampuff.
With love,
Hermione
She rolled up the piece of parchement carefully, sealing it with the Malfoy family crest on the seal. She kissed the letter and scrawled across the seal, neatly, Draco Malfoy. She went over and opened the cage of their delivery owl, Ivy. "Ivy, take this to your Master Malfoy, Office." She tied the letter to her leg of the brownish-auburn owl and released her to fly out through the garden window of the study. She took a seat in front of the fire, laying back with a book called, "Successful Auror Firms of 2001." She read over a couple of the index pages and then saw the first page with glee. There they were, named side-by-side, Dragon Enterprises, Draco Malfoy and Lion Enterprises, Hermione Granger-Malfoy. She smiled and kept reading.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Draco was sitting at his desk, watching a meeting in progress when Ivy flew in through his office window and dropped the letter on top of his mahogany desk. He waved for the owl to leave after handing her an owl treat, the most expensive kind that a wizard could buy. He opened the letter and read the contents, watching the gold ink turn red after each word that he read. He smiled and thought, 'The ink that I bought her, that clever woman.' He shook his head playfully in amusement and dismissed the council members of the firm to go home, it was a long day for all of them. He packed up his briefcase and disapparated back to the Malfoy Manor.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hermione heard a soft pop noise and looked up from her book. "Hey baby, how was the rest of work?"
Draco smiled and said, "Completely awesome today. I recused my wife from Tom Riddle, threw Bellatrix in prison, thanks to your Stunning Charm, and we're almost done with your case. The trial date is set for next Wednesday, dear."
Hermione grinned and hugged her husband. "Thank you, dearest." She kissed his cheek.
Draco seemed disappointed and leaned over to the side and kissed her on the lips quickly. "We should eat dinner, you must be starving."
"Go upstairs, change, and take a shower first. I'm going to make dinner tonight." She playfully licked her lips.
Draco looked like he was in bad shape and then said, "Honey, you're worn out enough for today, why don't you let Korkey do the cooking tonight and then you can cook tomorrow, okay baby?" Draco said, holding her in his arms.
Hermione gave in and nodded.
Draco summoned Korkey and told the house elf of the situation. She bowed and apparated back in the kitchen. He smiled at Hermione and then said, "We should get washed up." He grinned, deviously.
Hermione bit her bottom lip and said, "Would it be safe, darling? With you, especially?" She grinned.
"We'll have to see, won't we, love?" He grabbed his suitcase in one hand and his wife's petite hand in the other. He leads her upstairs in a rush.
