Draco missed being with Megan. He wrote to her everyday and they talked through the fireplace at night. He knew how much she hated being at the Malfoy manor so he tried to do all the work he had to do for the ministry and Voldemort quickly. He wanted to get out...but being a Death Eater was a life decision. At least he had assured Megan's safety and her family's.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Megan couldn't have been happier to see her sister. She began to spill her guts out.
"I can't stay here another night. I'm serious. It's like I hear him outside my door every night. He's just standing there. Its freaky. He'll stand there for an hour knocking, waiting for me to open."
Karen looked terrified.
"Have you told Draco?"
Megan shook her head and sat down.
"I wouldn't want to worry him."
She smiled.
"He's coming by tonight. Just to visit for a day."
Karen's eyes lit up.
"And to think we thought he'd make you miserable."
A house elf pulled on her skirt.
"Mrs. Malfoy, someone is here to see you."
"Um okay. Let them in."
The elf skipped away and Megan looked at her sister.
"I'm not expecting anyone. Did you invite anyone over?"
Karen shook her head. To her great surprise it was Harry. She greeted him warmly.
"Oh my God its so good to see you. How are you?"
Harry grinned.
"I'm okay."
Megan introduced him to her sister and not soon after they were all talking like old friends. Megan offered Harry and glass of Brandy and he took it. Soon Karen left and Harry alone remained.
"So he treats you well?"
"Well yeah, he's a really sweet guy."
"And you love him?"
Megan took a sip and refused to meet his eyes. She laughed.
"Well, he is my husband."
Megan offered him a tour of the house.
"Well I've got to go. I'll be in touch though."
As Harry left the room Lucius came in. Megan quickly went to her room and locked the door behind her. A couple of hours later Draco apparated into her room. Megan ran to him, she went into his arms immediately.
"I've missed you so much!"
He wrapped his arms around her and held her back.
"How have you been? Did you miss me?"
She looked up into his face expectantly. He grinned.
"Everyday and night."
She excitedly led him to the bed.
"Let me tell you its been murder without you. I don't know what to do with myself anymore. This place is so boring! I can barely go out because your father insist on escorting me. You have to tell him I don't need an escort, Draco."
Draco laughed and nodded.
"I will. Wow, its good to be missed."
Megan bit her lip and pulled off his cloak.
"How long will you stay?"
Draco gave her a half-smile.
"A few hours. So how about one more try at that baby?"
Draco smiled and wrapped his arms around her waist.
"You read my mind."
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Draco woke up an hour before sunrise. He got dressed in the dark and pulled on his cloak then put his wand in his pocket. He walked over to Megan. Looking down at her, he had to admit it was worth the punishment he'd have to face if he got caught. He was supposed to be guarding Voldemort but he figured nobody would notice he was gone, he'd made sure of that. Draco kneeled down next to the bed and touched Megan's face softly. She opened her eyes and looked at him, she smiled. Megan struck him as so young, so sweet and innocent. She sat up holding the sheets to her chest. He had already seen every bit of her body but she was still modest. She was only 18 and every time they did it, it felt like the first time.
"Are you going?"
Draco nodded and she pouted.
"Stay?"
Draco shook his head.
"I love you."
She smiled and drifted back to sleep.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Megan knew she had grown attached to Draco. He made her feel desired, confident, special. She breathed in and looked out the window. She had spent all day in her room, barely eating anything other than that snack the house elf had brought her a couple of hours ago. She stared out into the sky, storm clouds seemed to draw near.
"Looks like a storm is coming."
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Lucius paced his study. Narcissa was sitting on a chair nearby, reading a book. Thunder clapped.
"Lucius, please sit, its impossible for me to concentrate."
Lucius gave her a look and she blushed knowing she had stepped out of line. Lucius always had a good hold on his women. He was a domineering man.
"Shouldn't you go to bed?"
Narcissa knew he wanted to be alone. She nodded and walked out. Lucius paced some more. He was frustrated. He always got what he wanted...now what he wanted belonged to someone else. He wouldn't let that stop him though. He could almost taste victory. With a smiled he opened a flask which he had pulled out of his pocket.
"Bottoms up."
Thunder crashed again.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Megan was already sleeping when she heard a knock on her door. She froze thinking it was Lucius, then she heard Draco calling her name from the outside. She opened the door an he stepped in.
"You're back!"
She held him and he held her back awkwardly.
"Yeah...back..."
She looked in his eyes and saw something strange.
"What? Why are you looking at me like that?"
Draco's eyes turned smoky gray with desire. He lay her back on the bed and kissed her sensually. She was slightly surprised but ran her hands through his hair and kissed him back. His kiss became rushed. He began to undress her but wouldn't let her undress him. He eyed her naked body with so much hunger and intensity that it began to scare her. The rain outside beat down harder than ever. He finally turned off the lights and undressed himself. He took her wildly. He seemed to take so much out of it. Suddenly his member began to hurt more. His gasps grew huskier and deeper. His hands rougher. She screamed out his name when he came. Her insides were burning in pain. Draco's breaths came hard. She tried to make him out in the darkness but he had turned his back to her. Megan fell asleep.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Lucius had a smile of his face. It was all worth it.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Megan woke up to the loud sound of thunder and a tree falling in the distance. She turned to Draco to see if he was still there and screamed. Lucius' eyes snapped open and when he looked at her, he smirked. The storm was directly above them.
"My aren't we acrobatic."
Megan screamed again and scrambled off the bed taking one of the bed sheets with her.
"What the fuck-"
"You said it, not me."
She stepped back.
"Oh my God..."
She covered her mouth.
"OH MY GOD!"
Megan felt suddenly nauseous. She stumbled back when he began to rise and exposed himself to her. He had an extremely well built body, it was illuminated by a flash of lightning.
"Don't tell me you don't remember."
Megan shook her head and tried to put it all together. Draco was there. Not Lucius. She saw him!
'What's happening...?'
She knocked over a table and a vase on it. Thunder crashed.
"No! It's not possible!"
"I'm a man, you're a woman...it is possible."
He took a step towards her and she moved to the side, avoiding the glass.
"Stop!"
Lucius lunged at her and caught her against the wall. She shook in both fear and disgust when he pressed his body against hers. The rain beat down against the window.
"I wanted you and now I've had you. I possessed you...I made you mine."
Megan sobbed and slid down to the ground but Lucius pulled her up.
"You can't say you didn't like it. It was all over your face..."
Megan pushed him away but he pulled her back.
"I remember your kisses...ah...and your sweat..."
Megan was nauseous. Lucius licked her neck then whispered.
"And you know what?"
She whimpered in fear.
"I can do it again."
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
They wrestled on the floor. She screamed but he covered her mouth with his. She squirmed away from him a couple of times but he was stronger and held her close. He rolled her over to the broken glass and lay her against it. She screamed into his mouth. Lucius received great pleasure from her pain. Soon the floor was covered with her blood and his semen. She stopped fighting and lay trembling below him as he groaned loudly. The storm drowned out the sounds. Lucius climbed off her, he was satisfied. He fell back on the bed and left her on the floor. He rested then got up and took in the morose view before him. She was covered in cuts. Her mahogany curls were damp with a mixture of sweat and blood. Lucius didn't hear her sobbing. She lay crumbled on the floor, hardly moving or breathing at all. Lucius picked her up off the floor and set her down on the bed. He put on his clothes and walked out. He gave the house elves orders to clean the room then to give her pain potions. Lucius got what he wanted. And he knew she'd never tell Draco.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
Megan awoke, slightly sore. Her calendar showed two weeks had passed. Her head was spinning but no thoughts seemed to make sense. One thing rang clear through her mind.
'I need to get out.'
She got up off the bed and walked slowly to the bathroom. She scrubbed her body until all her scabs were red and the cuts bled again. She stepped out of the shower and looked at herself. She looked thin and sickly. She had cuts all over her arms and legs along with hickeys and black and blue's all over her neck. She covered herself back up and went to her closet. The sunny dresses made her head hurt. She put on a pair of baggy jeans and a lose black turtleneck sweater. She pilled her wet hair up in a messy bun and went back to the bedroom. She saw letters all over her desk. The writing, she realized, was Harry's. She read a few of his more recent letters. He seemed to know that something wasn't right. Megan wrote to him, explaining to him she would be staying at The Three Broomsticks and to stop by and visit her. At the time he was the only person she even half trusted.
{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{
The Harry Potter craze had long passed. He was finally able to lead a semi-normal life. He was Seeker for the English Quidditch team. They had won the World Cup every year ever since he joined. Harry was also an Auror. He lived in an apartment near the city in London. He wasn't off in money, on the contrary he was very well off, he just didn't feel like rubbing it in people's faces. Harry was still close to his Hogwarts friends. Ron and Hermione got married. They had a three year old daughter named Chloe, a little girl with lots of curly red hair and bright brown eyes. Ron worked under the ministry and Hermione was a writer. They traveled together often and Harry sometimes took Chloe in with him. As Chloe jumped up and down on his sofa, Harry wrote another letter to Megan. He was beginning to think he should go over to the Malfoy Manor but the last time he tried Lucius Malfoy had closed the door in his face. Just as he was about to send the letter off, Megan's golden brown owl, Turkey, flew in his window. Harry unwrapped the parchment and read quickly.
'Harry,
I need someone to talk to. I can't stay in that place. Something really bad happened. I can't tell you what. I hope this letter gets through. I'm going to stay at the Three Broomsticks. Please come and see me, you're the only person I can think of to help me.
Please come,
Meg'
Harry stood up immediately. He went to his coat rack, put on a jacket and took Chloe's.
"Chloe we're going to visit with a friend now."
The red head looked up at him with a wrinkled nose.
"Not Cho right?"
Harry laughed. He had been dating Cho Chang on and off for over 2 years now. She would always leave then come back and he'd still be there waiting for her. That was over now.
"No, not Cho."
Chloe grinned at him.
"Good. I don't like her."
Harry put on Chloe's pink jacket and let the little girl down the London streets. They passed by the Leaky Cauldron where he saw Cho but got away before she could catch up with him. After a quick stop at a candy store for Chloe, they reached The Three Broomsticks. Chloe ate a lolly pop while Harry spoke to the owner.
"I need to see Megan Malfoy."
"No Malfoy here."
Harry thought a second.
"Megan Sanders?"
The man grunted and pointed up the stairs.
"Room 16."
"Thanks."
Harry took Chloe's hand and they ascended the stairs. Harry ran a hand through his hair, trying to tame it a little. Chloe grinned.
"You like her uncle Harry?"
Harry ruffled the little girl's hair and grinned.
"She's just a good friend."
Harry felt slightly anxious around her. He actually did like her...he liked her a lot. But she was married. Not only that but to Draco Malfoy, his rival. Harry knocked on the door and waited. Chloe squeezed his hand. Megan opened the door and Harry was taken aback. She looked sick and tired. She stepped aside and let him in.
"Are you okay?"
Megan shook her head. Harry greeted her with a hug and she held onto him. She stayed on his shoulder for a while not making a sound.
"I'm glad you're here."
She whispered silently then saw Chloe. She pulled away and smiled softly. She kneeled down to be face to face with the little girl then looked at Harry.
"Aren't you going to introduce us?"
"I'm Chloe. What's your name?"
The red head pipped.
"I'm Meg."
"Its nice to meet you."
Harry smiled. Megan stood up straight and looked at him. He felt something was wrong.
"You don't look so well. Have you slept much?"
Megan looked away.
"I've slept too much."
Harry frowned.
"Have you eaten lunch?"
Megan shook her head slowly. Harry took her hand and led her to the door.
"Where are we going?"
"To get you something to eat. C'mon Chloe."
Megan told him everything that had happened after dinner. Harry clenched his fist tightly.
"I'LL KILL–"
Megan took his hand and looked in his eyes.
"Please Harry..."
Harry relaxed to her touch and put his hand over hers.
"Well one thing's for sure...you're not going back."
"I know. But I only have so much money..."
Harry leaned in closer.
"Stay with me then. I have an extra room. Its not that far from here and no one would ever think to look for you there."
Megan bit her lip.
"I don't know..."
"Meg...just let me help you."
Megan looked at him as if she weren't sure she could trust him. Finally she nodded and squeezed his hand.
"Thank you Harry. I'm so glad I met you."
Harry smiled.
"I'm glad I met you too."
Chloe walked up to them from the play room. She gave them and inquisitive stare.
"Are you gonna be my aunt?"
Megan pulled her hand away from Harry's and they both blushed.
"Chloe why don't you go and say good bye to your friends? We're leaving."
Chloe nodded and skipped away. Harry looked at Megan, she looked weak and fragile. He held her arm as they walked down the street, Chloe holding his other hand. They picked up her things and took them to his apartment.
"You may have to share with Chloe every once in a while."
Megan smiled.
"I don't mind."
Harry looked at her.
"Okay so I'll leave you for now, I have to take Chloe home."
Megan nodded and Harry began to walk away. She called out to him. He turned to her and she threw her arms around him. She pulled back and smiled nervously.
"Thank you....for letting me stay."
Harry shrugged.
"It's no big deal."
Megan went into the room and closed the door. Chloe pulled on his jacket.
"I like her."
Harry looked back at the door.
"Me too."
