###RECAP###

By now Draco had his collected so he answered kindly, "I'm sorry for- not thanking you

earlier, my dear. Had I known that you were responsible for the treat I would have

thanked you right away."

Hermione was not expecting that kind of answer. She quickly blushed to the roots of

hair. She was not prepared for his reply so she did not have a proper retort. "You

are welcome, my lord."

But Draco was not paying attention to her anymore. She was thankful for this, for a

while, she then realized what caught his attention. He was now reading a message from

the guards along the forests near the border of the keep.

The ap Weasel has called arms ad was now fast approaching her keep.

Draco hastily called for his second in command to go get ready.

"Prepare for battle!" Draco shouted.

###END OF RECAP###

^^^Chapter 4^^^

Draco then turned to Hermione, "Go to your room." Draco ordered Hermione.

"But…"

"NO! I do not want any arguments! You should go to your room, you are safe there.I

will not put you in danger. And as a precaution, pack your things because after we win

this battle you and me are going to pay a visit to your neighbor, we are going to go and

see if he will have you. So we could put a stop to all these threats." Draco cut in and

never giving Hermione the chance to complain. "Now, go to your room."

Feeling like a child who was just chastised she haughtily raised her chin and turned to

flee to her room.

### Draco's POV ###

After ordering Hermione to go to her room, Draco turned to Brodick, his second in command.

"Did you see the fire in her eyes? I really thought that I had more coming before she gave in.

Thank God she did not waste my time arguing." Draco told Brodick.

Their friendship have gone a long way back, they trained to be knights together in Malfoy

Castle. Draco and Brodick are really good friends and they treated each other more like

brothers than friends.



*****************************

Brodick was a bastard of a lord and his mother was just an ordinary wench in the keep. His

father had not acknowleded him until he was 7 even though he lived right in the vicinity

of the keep where his father lived. His father didn't give him anything because he was just

one of his too many bastards. His father already has an heir, a bastard even younger than

him. And everyone knows that the older son should ibe the heir of a father of whatever

station in life you have. This is considered a big insult, Brodick never forgave his father for

this.

*****************************

Draco went to the bailey to see if the men were ready for battle. Once all the men arrived

at the bailey he ordered everyone to their own duties to do.

The night passed and ap Weasel still did not attack. So Draco made up his mind to go to their

camp to /i to their leader, the ap Weasel. Or maybe challenge him to a DUEL?

He wanted to inform Hermione about his plan so he went to her room.

######### At Hermione's ROOM ########

Hermione was waiting for the ap Weasel to attack. When he night has passed and he did not

attack Hermione heaved a sigh of releaf...

She was so consumed with her thoughts that Hermione did not hear the knock (more like

pounding) on the door.

When her mistress did not show any signs of ever hearing the knock at the door Mary stood

up to see to the door.

Hermione turned when she heard the door cracking open. The sight that greeted her took

her breath away. At the door, stood Draco in his mail with all his masculine glory. His blond

hair was all tussled up and he looked so handsome with his blue- gray eyes.

Draco coughed to cover his shock at seeing Hermione in the tub... Her hair was pilled at

the top of her head and some tendrills of hair were clinging to her very white neck and

he was suddenly filled with desire to kiss her right there and slowly go down... Her body

was glistening and her top breasts were tantalizingly peeking just above the water. The

sight was so seductve that Draco was forced to turn his head in fear that he might loose

his control and jump at the tub to take a bath with Hermione.

Hermione saw the i? hungry ?/i look that Draco gave her before he looked away.

Hermione sank her body even lower until the water has reached her neck when she rea-

lized where she was and what she was doing before he went inside the room.

"Ummm... Hermione I came here to inform you that I am going to the ap Weasel's camp to

talk some sense in him." Draco's voice broke the silence in the room.

(The maid of Hermione silently excused heself from the room to go and get milk for her

mistress to drink before slipping off to bed.)

"What!!!" Hermione's infuriated voice echoed the room. "You mean to go to his camp? He

might set a trap for you and cast a spell on you! I will not allow you to take such a risk! Even

though you're my overlord and all... we are still just to 5 years apart in age and... "

"Exactly, I am your overlord and you do not have the right to /i me around." Dra-

co's annoyed voice interrupted her long tirade.

"I am sorry, my lord." Hermione knew when she was defeated. iBut it does not mean that

she cannot go and follow them, just to keep an eye on them./i

"Good, now after your bath just be a good girl and go to sleep. Alright?"

"Yes, my lord." Hermione humbly answered.

### DRACO'S POV ###

Draco left Hermione's room to make sure that nothing was amiss before going to the Weasel's

camp. He then secured his sword at a sort of belt at his back.

( A/N: His weapon also serves as his weapon. This is better used in a DUEL or in battle because

it is not easily broken and it will prove that you are fitter both in body and spirit. )

He easily climbed to the back of his horse. He looked around to make sure everyone was ready

and as a precausion against being struck by an arrow or any weapon. He then happened to see

Hermione looking down from one of the windows upstairs. He saw her muttering something to

herself and then out of nowhere a small scroll appeared at his lap. He opened it.

font size="5" face="Bavand"

iDragon,

Take care. Good luck and keep your eyes open./font

font size="4" face="Signature" Hermione font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS"

Brodick reigned his horse next to Draco to see if there is anything else needed before they leave.

He then saw the small scroll. "What does that message say?"

Draco gave the the message to his friend. "Ahhh... from the little miss."

But Draco was not paying him any mind. Draco nodded to the direction of the window where

Hermione was and then he rode off with his little army, consisted of 30 mounted knights and

80 soldiers on foot...

### Near ap Weasel's camp ###

Draco kept ordered his men to keep quiet. He casted a spell that rendered all the racket

they made sounding as quiet as the air. He then muttered something under his breath that

gave them the chance to go about without being noticed by anyone may he be human or

wizard. He motioned Brodick to his side and ordered him to inform his men to knock down

ap Weasel's men with a jab in the head or something. He told them not to kill anyone.

He then slowly made his way to the tent of the Weasel. He went inside the tent but the site

that greeted his entry rendered him speechless and flabbergasted him.

There at the bed were three grown men, naked, and f***ing each other??? Man, this is a sight

you do not get to see everyday!!! He mutteres a spell under his breath that separated them

first and then made them dressed.

And then Draco cleared his throat and acted as though he saw nothing out of the ordinary.

"I see I have interrupted something. But I did not come here to waste away my time so will

you please excuse us? I have something that is of importance to discuss with the Weasel

here." Draco said. He then turned his icy stare to the two men, one was taller and had black

hair and the other one had brown hair and eyes was smaller in both height and stature. they

both obeyed the order without further argument because they felt the power that radiated in

him and the stare made them feel real fear.

After the men left the tent, Draco turned his attention to the red haired man that was considrably

large. He was had a body that was slightly formed but not /i "I came here to challenge

you to a duel. You threatened one of my wards. And I admit that she is rather old to be a ward,

so one might say that she is now one of my faithful vassals. NOW, you must pay the price. Pick

up your sword and let us go outside and fight." Draco finished with a very scary voice.

### Hemione's POV ###

Hermione reached the camp before the battle started. When she saw Draco come out of the

tent, she thought for a few moments that she missed everything. But a minute later she a rather

tall with a very big muscled, red-haired man caught her attention. At first she did not know who

he was until she saw him draw his sword and started muttering spells and fight Draco.

The fight began...

She was worried about Draco because even though ap Weasel was not as huge as Draco, he was

still big all the same.

### The Battle ###

But Draco proved to be the better fighter. And Hermione's worry began to lessen when she saw

that Draco was only playing with ap Weasel.

Ap Weasel was really exhausted, putting all his power in a final blow, he thrusted his sword to-

wards the Dragon. But Draco easily side- stepped this and finished the battle with a deathly

blow. The ap Weasel fell.

### The End of the Battle ###

Hermione started to turn to go back to the castle when she heard Draco call out: "You can come

out now..." Hermione was not sure if she was the one he was calling. But all that changed when

Draco said in a very clipped voice, "Hermione, come out, now."

How did he know she was out there, Hermione did not know. At first she thought to pretend that

she did not hear him but she changed her mind. There was no use in hiding anyway and he might

go after her and drag her back.

Hermione started to walk down the mound of soil in her path. But she stopped in her tracks when

she saw the icy chips of blue Draco's eyes have become. She was in eally big trouble...
