The next day…
-----
Harry Dresden handed over the living wood, which was now in a single piece and polished to boot, back to the mysterious blond in his office, who had been there when he unlocked the door.
"It's a very interesting bit of wood, Mr..." Harry paused, "I don't believe I got your name?"
Draco smirked as he fingered his wand, giving it a swish. The coffee pot in the corner started to percolate despite the fact that it was unplugged. Dresden's right eyebrow rose to meet his hairline.
"That's because I didn't give it to you Mr. Dresden," Harry almost flinched at the way he said his Name, it was flawless and totally without his meaning to do so. "In fact, I was wondering if you could do one more thing for me."
Harry nodded as he poured himself a cup of the magic coffee. ( Coffee really is magical! )
"Alright, but I insist on knowing who I'm working for."
A sigh escaped the impossibly blonde's lips as his head hung limp, "Alright, but it's confusing so I might as well show you." His head snapped up as his steely grey--No wait, they were green--eyes found his.
And then he was falling.
