Chapter 5: Arthur's Mistake
Due to Mr. Crouch's death and Fudge having grown tired of him, Percy Weasley had been re-assigned to Mafalda Hopkirk's office as one of her personal secretaries. On this particular day Percy was in quite an unusual state. He huffed and slammed his body into his leather chair. "That's what I get for trying to help!" he grumbled. He had just come from his father's office. He had heard about Ginny's accident from Mafalda and quickly ran to speak with his father. Percy and his father were still fighting even after the Voldemort sighting, he felt that "the best way was to follow the ministry, not running amuck with some order and Dumbledore.' The meeting between him and his father was very tense. Percy asked to see Ginny but Arthur refused him. NO! No, how could he have said no, she was his sister for Merlin's sake! He thought, "I just wanted to see her" he said aloud. "Well I hope you are talking about me," said a smooth voice. Percy looked up; it was Sappho Dolohov, his fellow secretary. Percy thought she was beautiful. He loved how her jet-black hair glistened from the windows' magical sun, and her bright blue eyes. Percy was completely taken with her. Sappho, being from a rich pure blood family, was used to having her way; and if influence, money and power weren't the key getting what she wanted then her looks would always seal the deal. "S-s-sorry no I wasn't, N-not that I don't, but I was speaking about my sister Ginny" "Oh? What about her?" Sappho inquired. "She's ill. Got cursed by another student. And all I wanted to do was see her. She could be very ill and need professional medical attention, not some second rate medi-witch employed by Dumbledore." "Oh, my, I'm sorry to hear that Percy. So what's stopping you? "My father." Percy said and retold the account that had taken place earlier that morning. "That's terrible Percy!" Sappho exclaimed in her most concerned voice. "He shouldn't do that to you, let alone get away with it. It's not right of him to throw his power about like that. After all you were only trying to help." Percy slumped deeper into his chair and sighed, "You don't know my father." Seizing the opportunity as she always did Sappho walked over and sat on Percy's desk facing him looking very concerned "No? How do you mean?" Percy gulped. He couldn't remember ever being that close to someone so beautiful. He didn't want her to leave; so he continued talking, even- though he thought discussing personal matters at work was quite unprofessional. But he needed someone to talk to, "He says I'm a disgrace! He'smore of a disgrace than me. My father is head of Misuse of Muggle Artifacts, and yet he collects muggle artifacts and enchants muggle cars and gets off Scott free! And I happen to know that he and his band of friends the Order of the Phoenix enchanted over 2,000 muggle and muggle- born families homes to set off a secret alarm telling them if the supposed re-risen He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named got within a certain distance. Now how dare he call ME a disgrace!" "Oh, my Percy, I don't know how you turned out so well being surrounded by people like that." Sappho flattered. "They have disregarded the law, our law, and all that we and the Ministry are working towards." They both sat still for a moment. Percy was staring at her when he saw her expression change and tears starting to form in her eyes. "Sappho? What's wrong?" he asked "Percy, I just feel so bad for you, its just horrible" she lied, "Oh Percy, what if some one finds out, won't you get in trouble?" She asked sounding worried. "Well, I have worked for Mr. Fudge and Mr. Crouch -- surely they would never conceive that I would ever take part in such criminal activities... or any activities against the ministry." he said confidently sitting up straighter and puffing out his chest. Sappho leaned over and slowly kissed him. Percy's mind was reeling and he felt a flush rush to his cheeks. Sappho pulled away and smiled at him and said: "Well, I have some errands to run, but maybe we can "talk again later" she winked and waltzed out of the office, leaving Percy happy yet quite frustrated. Once in the hallway Sappho broke into a run towards the elevators. Thoughts of rewards and power flooded her mind as the elevator traveled its course. The elevator stopped , announced the floor and Sappho stepped off. She headed quickly towards a large black double door and knocked lightly. "Enter" came a voice from within. She obediently opened the door, stepped into the office and quickly shut the door. "Ah, Miss Dolohov, what can I do for you?" the voice questioned. Sappho looked towards the tall, handsome, silvery-blonde haired man sitting in front of her, after a few moments of being lost in thought she cleared her throat and said, "I have some information for you Mr. Malfoy, some very... umm, shall we say, incriminating information." "Come out with it then." Lucius commanded. Sappho, not able to resist the vela-like charm she knew so well, slinked over to him and sat on the corner of his desk. Lucius looked at the beautiful raven-haired girl and let out a sigh. He knew she would do anything for him and he intended to put her devotion to use. He roughly pulled her off his desk onto his lap and kissed her hard. Sappho loved kissing Lucius, every time it was like she was flying. Suddenly she stopped flying and fell. She found herself on the floor. He had shoved her onto the floor and stared at her hard now... "What do you have to tell me?" he hissed. Sadly Sappho retold Lucius everything that Percy Weasley had confided in her. When she finished she sat still on the floor waiting for a response. "You have done well Miss Dolohov, extremely well. Your father will be very proud of you, and I am sure the Dark Lord will be very pleased and rewarding as well." Lucius praised. Sappho gathered herself and stood up to leave "Well, if that's all, I will be going to lunch. I am glad I could be of you to you and the cause." she said, and walking towards the door. Lucius stood and hastily grabbed her from behind pinning her arms to her sides. She took in a sharp breath in shock. Her mind slowly began to melt when he began kissing her neck at first slowly then faster. She could feel his member slowly beginning to press against her back. She remembered this all too well and knew how it would end but didn't care she could not resist him. He would be kind and attentive and then without warning cold and distant. This always happened but "Someday he might change, someday he might stay with me," she thought. Slowly he lowered her to the floor and began to graze his hands all over her. She was now rendered useless, she couldn't even think due to the veela charm overwhelming her. As his hands traveled lower she let out a short yelp of wanting. She felt his chest and began removing his cloak and then his shirt revealing his smooth milky white chest. Lucius pulled his wand from his cast aside robe and whispered "absint induviae" leaving hem both completely naked on the floor. He lowered his body to hers increasing the temperature dramatically. Lucius began slowly sliding himself against her folds causing her to shudder with antici...pation. Then with one velvety movement he slid himself into her heat. She groaned with pleasure as he ran his long fingers through her raven hair and kissed her deeply. Their pace quickened and then an "oh Lucius" came from beneath him. Lucius being quite satisfied with her response thrust hard into finally emptying himself into her. Sappho smiled as he reached for his wand to return their clothes. "Well, Miss Dolohov, I thank you for the information. Now if you don't mind I have lot of work to do." He said coldly. "Yes. Right." She whispered sullenly picking her self up. She stared at the man in disgust and wonder. How can anyone be so horrible and amazing at the same time? She wondered. Taking one last look at Lucius she walked out of the office unnoticed.
Lucius sat down in his tall backed black leather chair and began to think. Could he actually take care of the Weasleys, Fudge's bet, and this so called Order all at once? How was he going to pull all of this together? Alright, first things first, I need evidence. Arthur had to have gotten his information of muggles and muggle-borns from the Ministry database. I'll send Sappho to investigate the logs. Next is Fudge's bet, maybe I could blackmail Arthur with the information Sappho gathered. I would then have two things he wants; the power to wake Ginny and the secrets of his illegal transgressions and the Order kept under wraps. In turn, he will give me Ginny, who I will then give to Draco. Or even better, I can force Draco to marry Ginny, creating a pureblood marriage, serving Draco a lifelong punishment, and fulfilling the bet. Brilliant! And last is the hardest thing of all, how to keep Dumbledore out of this. I will have to send someone to take surveillance of these so-called Dark Lord alarms and a sample. Macnair will do that. That's proof of the orders existence and their acts against the ministry, but how to find them? Hmmmm..." Lucius sat drumming his fingers on his smooth ebony desk deep in thought. Then the idea hit him. He rose from his chair and began pacing around the dark office. "Kreacher helped the Dark Lord before by coming to me and telling me about Sirius. So, obviously he was at Black's house. And who other to break into a Black house than a Black? I must talk to Bella and Narcissa about the particulars of the house and try to find a way to locate it. Just a location will do for now anymore and I will have no ammunition left. Lucius returned back to his desk and wrote out one interdepartmental memo for Sappho and an owl addressed to McNair and the Black sisters. Satisfied with his work Lucius set off to lunch.
