King of Fools – Chapter 6

Lucius stood talking to Pandora's parents about their plans for the baby. They had decided that they would have a child ready for their lord whether Pandora consented or not. In Lucius' mind though, he would rather she consent.

After they finished discussing the plans for the baby Lucius showed them to the door.

"Lucius, have her pregnant by the end of the week or it is you head and hers."Viktor warned. Andrea nodded in agreement before they disappeared with a pop.

Lucius made his way towards their room. With each step he took his heart seemed to get heavier and heavier. As he reached the door he finally felt his heart drop, the pain of his actions completely weighted against him. He leaned his forehead against the door and sighed heavily.

After all of the killings, all of the torture fests he had witnessed and or partaken in, slapping this girl…his girl…no his woman, was nearly breaking his icy heart.

He gathered his wits about him and finally gathered the courage to open the door. She was there, lying in the middle of his bed. Looking ever so like the angel she was as the moonlight that streamed through the window illuminated her pale skin making her glow. Her dress and hair was sparkling like the stars. He walked closer to the bed and he felt his heart break all over again. Marring her cheek was an angry purple bruise. Her eyes were swollen and red. Tear tracks were drying against her cheeks. Now, to put it bluntly, he felt like a total ass hole.

He walked into the bathroom and conjured up a hot shower. He stripped out of his clothes and stepped into the shower fully intending to let the hot water sooth his pain and worry away. He leant his head back against the wall letting the water run over him as he thought.

He was going to make it up to her somehow. He just had to make things right. No matter the cost. He had to make things right. That's when an idea came to his mind and his infamous Malfoy smirk spread across his face. He knew just the thing; even if it took all night he was going to make sure everything was perfect.

Pandora woke feeling tired and drained from all of the previous day's activities. She had a major headache and her eyes felt as if they were on fire. She groaned and opened her eyes, letting them adjust to the light she looked around and was shocked to find she had been changed and put into bed.

Why had Lucius been such an ass to her? What had she done to make him so angry?

She shook those questions from her mind and sat up looking around the room. Her eyes came to rest on the pillow next to her own. A letter lay with a sparkling red rose next to it. She picked up the rose and sniffed it. It smelled of strawberries, her favorite scent. She moved to put the rose down, but was shocked to find that the rose erupted into twelve chocolate covered strawberries in her hands. She gasped in surprise. A plate magically appeared and the strawberries jumped onto the plate and landed itself on her pillow. The letter that had been lying on Lucius' pillow floated into the air and landed in her hands. Her name sparkled like diamonds on the front. She opened it and began to read.

Pandora,

I am sorry I acted like such an ass last night. What I did to you was uncalled for and unnecessary. I plan on making it up to you in every way possible even if it takes me my entire life time. I plan to apologize ten thousand times until you forgive me and the ten thousand more even when you do. I will never forgive myself for hurting you. If I had ever thought I would hurt you in any way I would have never done what I had done last night and for that I am sorry. I hope you can forgive me for what I have done to you.

I am truly sorry,

Lucius

Tears filled her eyes as she read and re-read the letter. She reached up to dry the tears from her face and was shocked to find that her face did not hurt. She got out of bed and walked over to her vanity and looked in the mirror. Where an ugly bruise had been last night, only her pale, un-bruised flesh remained. She looked again at herself in the mirror and frowned. She looked rough. Her eyes were swollen and red, dark bags were under her eyes and her hair resembled a rat's nest. She frowned and reached for a brush just as Orange popped into the room. Pandora turned.

Orange was carrying a white sundress, a cute straw hat and a pair of matching flats. Orange smiled a big toothy smile at Pandora and held them out to her. Pandora took them from her.

"Master said for you to take a long bath and to get refreshed and dressed for the day. He also told Orange to tell you to take this." She said handing Pandora a small vile filled with a purplish-blue liquid.

"What is it?" Pandora asked as she took the vial from Orange, her voice sounding husky from her night spent crying.

"Master said it was a pain potion to help your head ache. He said he thought you might have one this morning."

Pandora smiled. How thoughtful of him.

"Tell Lucius I thank him for his thoughtfulness and his gifts. Orange? Do you mind to get me a pumpkin juice and bring me my strawberries please?" Pandora said as she made her way into the bathroom with her gifts and vile.

"Yes Miss Pandora!" Orange said disappearing with a pop.

~*~

Lucius sat at his desk arranging plans for the day when Orange popped into the room. Lucius looked up expectantly.

"Well?" He asked.

"Miss Pandora told Orange to tell Master thank you for your thoughtfulness and your gifts." Orange said and Lucius smirked.

Everything is going just as I planned.
