Chapter 4
Lucius found a scrap piece of parchment and they all portkeyed to the entry hall of Malfoy Manor. When they arrived, house-elves appeared to take the cloaks. Lucius directed one to go back and get all of Harry's things and another to make up 'the room' as he put it.
Lucius turned to Harry and said evenly, "If you would please follow me to my study, we have something important to discuss." That said, he started off down the hall.
IN LUCIUS'S OFFICE
"Mr. Potter, may I call you Harry?" Lucius asked, his voice giving away no emotion.
"Certainly Mr. Malfoy" Harry replied evenly.
"Please call me Lucius."
"Okay."
"How are you feeling Harry?"
"I've been better and I've been worse" Harry replied cryptically.
/This is getting me nowhere/ Lucius thought to himself.
"Okay, look, Harry, I know you probably don't trust me, but I have something important to tell you."
"What?"
"Well, Lily didn't exactly have muggle parents. Both of her parents were Nettiks."
"Net-whats?" Harry asked confused.
"Nettiks are a type of cat demon that very few people know about. The submissive turns into a kitten the day he receives his inheritance, and must be near his dominate mate in order to regain human shape."
"So you are saying that I am half Nettik?"
"Actually you are full-blooded. James, however, was only half-blooded. The way this works is that if you are over half-blooded, you will become full-blooded."
"Okay, so are Malfoys Nettiks, too, or is someone paying you to help me?"
/So he is not as stupid as he acts./ Lucius thought.
"You have guessed correctly, the Malfoys are full-blooded Nettiks."
"So, I'm guessing Narcissa is your mate, so am I Draco's?"
"Yes, right again." /Wow, how does he act so stupid when he is this smart/ Lucius thought, not bothering to guard his thoughts, for once.
"Why can I hear your thoughts?" Harry asked.
"Oops, you weren't suppose to be able to do that yet. It is because you are a royal Nettik."
"Oh, so where do Malfoys rank in Nettik society?"
"We are high-ranking nobles, but of course, that will soon change."
A/N: Told you I would update soon. This is kind of a cliffe, I know, and I am sorry. I will update again soon, promise. Next couple of chapters, find out why Harry didn't put up any fight when the Malfoys came to get him, cookies to anyone who can guess why!
