The Trouble With Draco Malfoy
Chapter Two: Everybody's Fool
By: Kate Malfoy
Summary: What happens when boy and girl are in betrothed but just can't seem to fall in love. THIS CHAPTER: Draco and Mollie talk in the shadows
As soon as Draco and I made it to the beach, he dropped my hand and pulled me into the shadow. He was angry, I could tell. Always the perfect gentlemen in front of other people, but when it comes to his belongings, make no mistake I am a belonging to Draco; he could get fucking pissed off. Draco had probably had trouble with one of the house elves at home and now he was going to take it out on me. Oh well, I might as well get used to it.
"We need to set some ground rules," Draco sneered at me. "You know that if you don't get into Slytherin, you don't get into the Malfoy's. I know your parents would hate that. Poor Mommy and Daddy, finally realizing what shit their daughter actually is."
He had gone a little to far on this one. "You know as well as I do that I am practically guarantied a bed in the Slytherin house. Every Starre in the history of the Hogwarts has gotten into Slytherin. It won't stop know, Draco. Not even you can get your way on this one."
"You know, there is one thing that you could do to get in my favor. I know you want to be in MY, favor Mollie. You owe me the rest of your life. I could make it heaven, or I could make it hell. It all depends on you. I want you to become my personal slave while we are at Hogwarts. Your response to this is going to be the deciding factor in the way I treat you once you are legally mine. As of this moment, Mollie, things aren't in your favor."
"How can you say this to me? How can you insult your own fiancé to her face like this? What do you want from me that I would not be obligated to give you? You want a slave? By the contract, I am your slave. You want sex? By the contract, I have no right to refuse you. You want someone to beat up? By the contract, I have to stand there and take it. What do you want that I won't give you?"
"You see, my dear, when I said I wanted you as my personal slave, I meant in everything. I want to own you. Body, Mind, Soul. I know a spell that will make you mine like this. I want your heart, for Christ's sake, Mollie."
"Draco, we are only eleven years old. You don't know enough about magic like this to do that. It could kill me. Besides, I thought my heart was the one thing I was allowed to keep. You could take everything of mine except my heart. What good would it do you? My little heart wouldn't even make a whole heart with your little heart. We are both cold people, Draco. We are heartless."
"My dear Mollie, I want to make sure that you don't stray. Fucking whores like you tend to move on. I don't want to be known as the Malfoy who couldn't keep his fucking wife tied down. Don't make me use this against you, Mollie. I studied this. I know how it works. Unless you want the rest of your life to be utter hell, you should probably do this. I can fuck your life, Mollie. I might not be able to stop you from being sorted into Slytherin, but I can stop you from being liked. I can drain out all happiness from your sad pathetic life. I can make you come begging to me for mercy, promising that you would do anything to get me happy again. And you know what, Mollie Starre? You know what I will say when you come begging me? I will say that there is no fucking chance. This is your chance, Mollie."
"You know I will not refuse. I don't know why you even bothered to ask. You could have commanded and I would have been obligated to do it. You know that."
"I don't want mere submission from me fiancé, Mollie, I want you to want it. I won't force you to do anything you don't want. I promise you that. I also promise you that if you don't do what I want, I will make your life utter hell. Don't tempt me, baby, you know better then that."
I know that we sound older then eleven years old, but hey, when this is the only way you know how to speak, this is what you do. Draco and I are only children and this is how our parents talk. We already are like a little married couple, Draco and I. Me the submissive wife who just wants safety for her and her children. Draco the angry husband whom in no way to be believed, but in no way to be doubted.
"Are you listening to me, Mollie? You will not tempt me. You will not try to make me angry Mollie. Hell, my dear. Is that were you want to live? If it is, then please, by all means, continue to ignore me and don't agree to what I say."
"Sorry, Draco, I was just trying to imagine the lies I am going to have to come up with for why I am going to treat you the way I will after we do this spell. I was just wondering, how will you treat me at school?"
"Oh yes, school, that reminds me of a whole load of other shit I meant to speak to you about. You will come up with no lies. Everyone is to know of our engagement. We will marry at the end of our year five. A private room will be provided for us for after that. They will never know of the spell and they will think that we are in love. They will never know of the betrothal but they will think that we, for some odd reason, had fallen in love in our childhood and had gotten engaged. Everybody knows the Starre's and the Malfoy's are close friends. I also wish to tell you that you now belong to me. Everything you do shall be reported to me. That is, if it is agreeable to you."
Draco gave me a look that clearly said that it would be best if I just agreed instead of endangering my life. "Of course. I have nothing to hide. Is that all?"
"One last thing," Draco said while picking up my hand and pulling out a knife. He put the knife to my skin and I was so worried. He cut my palms and I tried my hardest not to cry. He then took the knife and cut both of his palms. He put the knife away and pushed his palm against mine. "Our bloods are now mixed. You know belong to me. I will tell you one thing though. I will never cheat on you unless you should give me a reason too. Do as I say and I won't HAVE to hurt you. You do understand, don't you, Mollie? You understand that I have it in me to make or to brake you."
I pulled out my wand and healed our wounds. My blood was now in him forever, as is his in me. I took his hand and kissed his palm where there was a scar. I held his hand as we made our way back to the restaurant. "Of course, Draco, my dear."
The moment Draco and I walked in, I saw the look on our parents face and suddenly I knew something that I had never known before. I knew that this was the last day of my life with them. I knew that they loved me for all they never showed. I suddenly knew what that last line of the contract was that no one had ever told me. I knew that once I left for Hogwarts, I would never see them again.
Draco must have known that. He squeezed my hand and smiled at me. He now was the one thing my life depended on. "See you tomorrow. Sleep well, my dear. Oh, and Mollie, you will sit with me on the train tomorrow. Goodnight." He kissed my cheek like any gentlemen would, and walked over to his parents and left.
As I turned back to my parents, my entire being went cold.
