"Draco! Help me!" Her voice was growing louder the closer and closer he got. His footsteps echoed across the marble halls as he ran.
He skidded to a stop and threw open a small wooden door, so different compared to the big marble ones all around him.
Potter was holding Hermione and he had his arm snaked around her waist. She had a gag pushed into her mouth and she was looking at him with pleading eyes. Draco snarled and tried to lunge but he realized that he couldn't move.
He tried too actually run forwards, but it was like he was running on a tread mill.
"Don't worry Malfoy." Potter smirked. "I will take good care of her and the child." Draco could only watch, his mouth open in a silent scream as Potter lifted his wand and pointed it at her head. "OBLIVIATE!"
"NOOOOOOOO!"
"Malfoy! Malfoy wake up!" His eyes snapped open and he gasped, flinging himself at her and gripping her arm tightly.
"Who is the father of your child?"
"Excuse me?" Hermione gasped, caught off guard.
"WHO IS IT?" He bellowed, and she yelped as his fingers curled into her soft flesh.
"You! You are! You are the father!" She cried and he instantly released her and sprang out of bed. He leaned against a wall and a huge sigh of relief left his pale lips, his eyes locked on the terrified brown ones. "What happened?" She whispered.
His eyes hardened and his jaw twitched. She shrank back and covered her stomach automatically. His blazing eyes softened at the terror in those deep whisky depths. He returned to her side and opened his arms. She watched him suspiciously before settling onto his chest.
"Nothing." He muttered into her hair, his finger curling around her swell.
I promise I wont let anybody harm you or our child. I promise, Hermione.
The room was dimly lit. The fireplace hissed and spit as he stared into those glowing embers. His eyes were glued to the burning logs and his eyebrows were furrowed. The whisky swirled in its glass as he brought it up to his lips and sipped, the burning liquid setting a fiery trail down his throat as it went down. He glared with hatred at his sleeve, where the dark mark was hidden beneath the black material.
His silvery hair gleamed and his free fist clenched. There came a knock on his window, and his eyes shot up, eyeing the elegant eagle that was currently impatiently snapping its beak at him. He flicked his wrist and the window flew open and untied the letter as soon as the bird was close enough. When he had finally gotten the ribbon off, the bird bit him. Not nipped, bit. He growled as the bird hit him the face with its wing before it soared out the window. Fucking bird.
He glared at the parchment and paled when he saw the dark lords crest upon the crisp paper. Hos hand shook as he gently placed hi glass down and tore the paper open.
Malfoy,
It has been a while. How is my precious
mudblood doing? I have given you a very
long time boy, and I hope you have worked
on her loyalty. Its best for you that you have,
for I demand you bring her before me.
Infact, I think I will come get her myself.
Don't so anything stupid now, Draco.
Think about your child and precious wench.
Don't disappoint me again. You will not
Enjoy the punishments.
Lord Voldemort.
His blood had fun cold, and before he could even think about it, the glass was hurled across the room, splintering against the wall with a satisfying CRACK! His chest was heaving, and his head was spinning as he heart feet padding quickly upstairs. There came a nervous knock on his door, and his head snapped towards it.
"Malfoy?" Hermione. He wanted to croak. "Malfoy, are you alright?" No.
He flung the door open and she took a frightened step back. He wrapped his arms around her and pulled her into his hard chest.
"Malfoy?" She said again, her voice muffled from the fabric.
"He wants to see you." He whispered, and she tensed suddenly, fighting back against his chest and clawing at him.
"No!" She shrieked. "I won't let you take me to him!" He let her go and she spun around, gabbing her finger at his chest angrily. "I refuse to go with you!" She hissed. He took a step forwards, but her hand flew out, slapping him hard across the face. He reeled back, shock over coming his features as he stared at her wide eyed.
Tears where streaming down her face as she hugged herself, wrapping her arms tight around her chest.
"Hermione,"
"You are going to take us to him!" She cried, and he closed his eyes.
"Hermione…"
"I thought you had changed! I was beginning to trust you!"
His eyes flew open in total and utter shock. She…What? He took another
Step forwards, but she shoved his chest hard again.
"Fuck you Malfoy!"
"Hermione!"
"Fuck all you stand for! I hate you, I hate you, I hate you!"
"SHUT UP AND FUCKING LISTEN!" He finally bellowed, and the house seemed to shake at all the energy that was sizzling of him. Her moth snapped shut, her earlier courage and rage melting as she cowered back. He stalked forwards, grabbing her shoulders and bringing her face to his.
"I haven't beaten you at all since we got here." He hissed. She stared at him with wide eyes, her entire being shaking. "I haven't forced myself upon you, I haven't hurt you, and I haven't done anything but make sure you are happy!"
"Why would I be happy with you!" Her courage had returned and she dared to stare into his burning eyes.
"I haven't beaten you for month." He growled, raising one hand, and she flinched, clenching her eyes shut, awaiting the blow, but none came. She dared to open one eye, and his face had fallen, his eyes gleaming with defeat. "And I'm not planning on starting anytime soon." She blinked at him as he slowly put her down. She rubbed her shoulders gingerly but didn't look away from the icy orbs. "And if I'm not allowed to harm you, no one else is."
"What are you saying, Malfoy?" She mumbled, an unidentifiable feeling flaring of emotions in her chest.
"What I'm saying is… I'm letting you go."
