When Lucius and Narcissa entered the infirmary, they saw a trembling Draco near the window. He looked pale, worried and angry at the same time. It was had for his father to approach him without earning an angry look. His mother on the other hand, had more luck.

"Draco, what's going on?" she asked.

"It's WEASLEY! That scum touched Hermione. She called him her boyfriend!" shouted Draco.

The Malfoy couple realised the amplitude of the situation. They will have to talk to the Granger girl before the situation got out of hand. She will have to end her relationship with Ronald Weasley if she wants him to stay alive.

"Draco, we will fix that right now okay? That boy won't touch her again."assured Narcissa.

"How can you do that? McGonnagal hates me!" the veela said.

"No she doesn't. Besides, the law is on your side. Hermione will have to bond with you sooner or later. Well, before your eighteenth birthday." reassured his mother. "Look, we'll go and talk to the headmistress. I'm sur she'll agree on mesures to take."

Then, the Malfoy couple parted the infirmary with their son.

Harry entered the common room in a hurry. He was really nervous. Who could not be when they just saw their best friend being hexed by the detestable professor Snape. Moreover, Ron had just had a fight with Malfoy of all people! But now, he had to talk with Hermione. Even though he was in the great hall when it happened, maybe he didn't possess all the facts. But as he approached the corner of the gryffindor common room, he hear Hermione talking to Parvati and Lavander. He figured they were doing girl talk and it would be really embarrassing to interrupt them. Hence, he decided to take a walk around the castle.

He stopped in front of one of the many portraits of Albus Dumbledore.

"Hello Dumbledore." greeted Harry

"Oh! Harry please call me Albus. That name just reminds me of my father."asked the former headmaster of Hogwarts.

And so on, the conversation continued. But lets move on to our favorite female character, Hermione, who is still sitting in the common room with Lavander and Parvati.

"Hey, do you guys know where Ginny is? I haven't seen her all morning!" asked Hermione, worriedly.

"No need to panic 'mione. I think she is somewhere talking with Blaise Zabini, you know, the italian slytherin. I've heard a lot of rumors about them and it's only the first day of school." said Parvati

"Oh, and how about you Parvati? How are you doing with my ex-boyfriend?" asked Lavander with no malice in her voice.

"We are just so perfect for each other!" she cried. " Me and Lucas are so much in love! He is the perfect gentleman all the time. But lets go back to buisness, why do you think Malfoy attacked Ron? He look so angry when you called him your boyfriend. "

"Well, McGonnagall said that Malfoy was a veela. As much as I hate to say it, I don't know a lot about veelas so I need to go to the library to research it." Hermione admitted, blushing with embarrassement.

"Do you think he loves you? Maybe he was in love with you all the time or maybe..." ranted Lavander.

Lavander could be a really nice girl when she was not ranting about rumors and gossiping with her other gang of friends. Hermione was just beginning to have a headache when a frightened first year came by and said that the headmistress demanded that Hermione come to see her immediatly. Always obeing to a figure of authority, Hermione left her friends and made her way to McGonnagal's office.

As Hermione entered the room the people talking stopped and she recongnised Narcissa, Lucius and Draco Malfoy sitting in three leather chairs. One was vacant, probably for her. When she was completly in the room, Draco stood up and went near her. He helped her go to her chair, a move wich surprised her. She backed off with rage, remembering what had happened the night before.

"I'm very capable of going to my chair alone Malfoy. I shouldn't even be talking to you. You punched my boyfriend." she spitted out.

The effect was immediate. Lucius quickly got out of his seat and went to hold his son who was now trembling with jealousy. Draco's eyes were pitch black and he looked as he was about to kick the walls.

"Mister Malfoy please calm down. Miss Granger, I would suggest not to mention Mister Weasley to Mister Malfoy that way. We sumonded you here to talk about Mister Malfoy's condition." said McGonnagal.

"What condition? Oh, you mean the veela thing." Hermione said.

"Yes that. Do you know what veelas are?" asked McGannagal

"Well a little bit but not much. I wanted to go and research it at the library but didn't have the time." Hermione admitted.

"Listen closely, Veelas are very rare creatures. Beautiful creatures who, when they reach their majority, will attract the opposed gender population. These creatures who are considered human posess a mate with whom they bond their entire life. They will care for that mate and make sure she or he is happy. If the veela does not bond with his mate before his eighteenth birthday, he or she will die. Miss Granger, I am going to say this plainly, you are Mister Malfoy's mate. " said McGonnagal, very calmly.

"WHAT! No! It's not possible! I mean, he hates me and I hate him. Even if it was possible I would not accept him." shrieked Hermione.

A flash of heartbreak passed through Draco Malfoy's eyes. Hermione noticed it but it didn't change her mind.

"Miss Granger, I mean Hermione..." started Narcissa. "You should know that the law is with us. The ministry is going to force you to accept Draco. And please Hermione, my baby will die if you do not accept him."

"That is totally unfair!" shouted an indignated Hermione.

"Miss Granger, before you say something you might regret, I suggest you go to your friends, end your relationship with Mister Weasley and think about it thouroughly." proposed the headmistress.

With those last words, Hermione Granger stormed off the room, leaving four worried persons behind.

So, what did you think? It was longer than last time. I think it was twice as long as the previous chapters. Please tell me how you found it in the reviews.

So I added a little more details, I think... I'll try to do more next time.
