Bismarck stirred as the light of the sun reached his eyes. He rolled to his side and suddenly felt something soft and warm beside it. His arm was draped around the object and found that it was also smooth... and breathing.
He smelled the flowery fragrance of something silky and he felt like he was sleeping on a field of flowers.
Then, the object stirred and turned.
"Good morning," and it greeted. Only then did Bismarck open his eyes and met with the sapphire orbs of a wonderful woman. Then he noticed that his hands were in a different kind of orbs.
Eyes widened in shock, Bismarck suddenly backed away and held the covers close to his body. Narcissa blinked in surprise.
"What did you do to me?" he asked worriedly.
"I... ah..." she started sheepishly. How could one explain it when she's naked in front of him? The funny thing was, HE was covering himself up.
"You have ravaged me!" he raved. "You must answer for your indulgences."
"What?" Narcissa was confused. What was he raving about?
"You must marry me!" he shouted. Narcissa smirked and struck Bismarck hard with a pillow.
"You're insane," she giggled. Bismarck sighed and smiled at her.
"Damn, can't blame a guy for trying," he laughed. "What happened?"
"You were in a high fever," she smiled. "Actually, you were cold and I needed to lower your temperature."
"Needed?" he was skeptical. Narcissa blushed at the implication.
"You were dying," she said softly. "I found you bleeding to death in the gazebo. How did you find this place?"
"I live here," he said much to her surprise.
"You do?" she asked. "But why didn't I see you?" Bismarck looked around and sighed.
"This is the fourth room of the west wing," he smiled. "I sleep in the second room of the EAST wing. I never venture to this part of the castle without reason."
"Oh," she blushed.
"You gave me reason," he whispered. Now, Narcissa flushed.
"I'd better get dressed," she said as she got out of the bed. Bismarck quickly turned around and looked away. Smiling, she noticed this and couldn't help but tease him.
"Am I that undesirable?" she asked. She heard him audibly gulp.
"It's not like that," he said, his voice faltering.
"It isn't?" she teased. She had already worn her dress when she turned to face him. She was surprised to see him fully clothed as well. "How did you do that?" she asked.
"I don't know," he said.
"How did you find the Sanctuary anyway?" she asked. His answer shocked her.
"I was one of the four who made it," he said softly.
"Four?" she raised an eyebrow.
"Me, my brother and my two cousins," he nodded.
"But my friend said this castle was built one thousand years ago," Narcissa said confusingly.
"It was."
"But..." she suddenly felt his finger touch her lips to silence her. She almost jumped at this. He was at the other side of the room a moment ago. When did he reach her?
"No more questions," he smiled. "For now, anyway." He gazed into her eyes and she saw his soul. She gasped when she saw more.
The color of his left eye was amber.
"Your eye," she gasped. Bismarck blinked and smiled sullenly.
"It's starting," he said.
"What is?" Narcissa asked.
"Destiny," he smiled. Offering his arm he gave her an expectant smile. "May I?"
Smiling, Narcissa took his arm and guided her to the galley.

"This is insane," Bill breathed out as he leaned back on his chair. Fleur smiled as she gazed upon his tired form.
"It may be," she agreed. "But we do not even have a saner plan than this."
"My instincts tell me to ask Alucard right out," he sighed. "But..."
"But we may not find the answers that we seek," she agreed. "There is an alternative," she said after thought.
"What is it?"
"It maybe as insane as going to the devil's layer itself," she said. Bill perked up, suddenly interested.
"Is it better than staying here?" he asked.
"You'd be the judge," her smile was almost mischievous.
"Okay," Bill consented. "What is it?"
"We find his brother," she suggested.
"Do you know the chance of that happening?" Bill asked but quite intrigued by Fleur's suggestion.
"Very good since we're both after the same thing," Fleur smiled.
"Now that sounds like a plan," he smiled. "Where do we start?"
"We start by finding Narcissa Malfoy," she said.

"Ally, should I be alarmed?" Gabrielle asked as they walked through Diagon Alley.
"About what?" he asked.
"You may have not noticed this but your right eye is yellow," she blinked. Alucard paused as he heard this.
"Oh no," he said in despair.
"What does that mean?" she asked worriedly.
"It's a message to the heirs of my family," Alucard said. "It means that darkness will overcome the light."
"And why does it only affect your family? What's the message?"
"That one of our clan will be the instrument in the destruction of light," he sighed. "It will happen in the next cycle of the moon. Meaning, the next full moon."
"That's less than a month," Gabby said. Alucard smirked.
"I know," he sighed. "And I don't know if I can control myself."
"You will," she said in full confidence. "I know you will." That made the difference to him.
"Thank you," he smiled. "I have to go in the Ministry's library to check out a few things, can you come?"
"Sure," she agreed. Smiling, Alucard held her hand and led her to the Ministry.
