I know, this is the fifth time I have posted chapter eight. But this is the last time. I just need to fill this chapter in so everyone will have the option of reviewing chapter eight. Chapter eight will be up either Friday night or sometime Saturday.

Please, please, I beg of you all to not be too upset at me.

Draco awoke with a jolt, frantically surveying room he was currently in….


Tease you enough? I wonder if the chapter happens in this order? Or am I just plain evil? Chapter eight will come soon, I promise. And for all the torture I have put you through it is longer than my usual chapter!
