DiSCLaiMeR- Dont own anything... etc etc etc...
Draco blinked, not believing his eyes. A thousand thoughts ran through his head. How did she open it? Obviously by magic. What's in there? Don't open it, it might be dangerous. But when he finally found his voice, he was surprised none of these was what came out.
"The note..."
He trailed off, looking around. For the first time since he had awakened, she looked up and spoke.
"What note?"
"There was a note, with the suitcase."
The rest of the explanation was lost as Draco furiously searched through the contents of the room for the missing note. At last he came upon what he was looking for and held it up in triumph. She looked at it puzzled.
"What is it?"
He tried explaining it again.
"When I found you, there was a note on the suitcase. Whoever or whatever left you here must have not wanted you hurt."
He handed the note to her and she read it, and reread it before setting it down on the bed. Again both of their attention was diverted to the suitcase. Though the locks were broken, it still remained unopened. She looked at him, as if to ask for permission. He shrugged in return, so slowly she popped the hinges and opened the top.
She pulled out the first item. Draco moved closer so he could see. It was a dark purple velvet dress. She ran her fingers over the elaborate patterns stitched in gold before setting it aside and moving on to the other contents. The next item was some sort of book, a diary perhaps. She opened the pages and flipped through but there was nothing written there. Again, after carefully examining the book, she placed it with the dress. The third thing was a little purple velvet bag. Inside was a gold watch, a gold pair of earrings, and a gold locket. She tried to open the locket but it refused to budge. Eventually giving up, these too were cast aside for something new. Reaching down, she pulled up a wooden box. She gasped at the box's contents. Draco looked curiously at her and she turned the box so he could see what was inside. He immediately understood what she had been so surprised about. There had to be at least a thousand galleons shrunken down into this little container. How she had gotten all this money seemed to be beyond both of them. After recovering from the slight shock of the box, he looked up at her.
"Is that all?"
She shook her head.
"There's one more."
What more could possibly fit into the suitcase, he thought. It wasn't that big. She continued to pull out another item. It was a letter. Like the note from the suitcase, she read it and then reread it again before setting it down on the bed next to Draco. He picked it up and began to read.
My Dearest Imber,
I pray that this among all other things reaches you in the best of health. I know that you are still angry at me for the way that things worked out but I assure you that it will all be fine in the end. Just stick to the plan until the little one arrives. Then we can be a family, a normal family. But for now just stick to the plan. Remember I love you with all my heart.
Yours truly,
Raven
Draco set the letter down. This must be the father of the baby. But why did he keep referring to a plan? Draco was even more confused now than when they had started. It seemed this girl was full of mysteries. He set the letter on the bed and found himself being stared at.
"The raven in my dream told me my name was Imber. Guess it is true."
Draco was taken aback at such a blunt statement. He couldn't think of anything to say so he instead changed the subject.
"Well, I guess you will be staying here for a while. I can show you around if you're up to it. I should also probably call the medi-wizard again. He was the one who gave you the potion to wake up."
He stopped suddenly at the realization that he was rambling. He smiled at her. She smiled back unsurely. They stayed like that for a moment before he finally spoke up again.
"Do you need anything?"
"Um, probably some clothes and some other little things."
"I guess this means we are going out."

The rest of the day was spent, showing Imber around the manor. They decided to hold off on shopping until the medi-wizard came that evening to make sure everything was ok. Once again Draco sat outside the door of her room waiting for the examination to be over. Finally, he heard the familiar door click open.
"Is she ok?"
"She's fine Mr. Malfoy."
Draco cringed at this name.
"Unfortunately she is under no memory charm and therefore we cannot perform a countercharm to lift it. She must have amnesia."
"Amnesia?"
"Yes, it is mainly a muggle disease. It occurs when there is some sort of head trauma. Makes the person affected completely, or partially lose their memory."
"Well, will she get it back?"
"Yes, eventually. It depends with each person how long recovery takes. But eventually the memory will come back. I have given her a potion that will hopefully aid in this process."
"Ok. How is the baby?"
"About that..."
"What?"
"Imber seemed to be unaware that she was pregnant. She was quite shaken up about it. Now I want to ask you, were there any signs when you found her that she could have been raped?"
"No! Actually there was a note that came with her, from the boyfriend, or husband I guess. He was aware that she was pregnant, so I am assuming that she must have known too."
"Ok then. Well let me give you this."
The medi-wizard pulled out a small vial; its contents lime green, and then another larger vial, this one's contents a midnight blue, almost black.
"Mix one drop of the green with two drops of the blue and give it to her twice a day."
"Ok. Thanks for coming out here again."
"It's no problem. Let me know if anything abnormal happens. Oh, and she will probably need to come in again in a few weeks, for a regular checkup."
With that the medi-wizard left and Draco and Imber were left alone again.
