Three days later.

Demon's Pact

Nanette had gone back home to assist Remus move. Remus was sad over the baby and offered to marry her once more. "No darling, I know what I saw, Lucinda is for you. True I am still not with Lucius. I just cannot forget he was with Narcissa all these years. You know how it was for me, you were the only one after I was with Lucius. After Tom and him, I had it. And I am going to travel with Lucius, he is going to help me to claim all my families properties. You know we hand fasted, I thought it wasn't valid, but apparently it is. Go in peace, be happy…"

She was going to try, but she was mad at Lucius, he had not even missed her. She had heard he and Narcissa has been quite happy, that was just wrong. Oh well, life went on, she guessed.

Draco was looking for his witch, "Mipzy have..."

"You knows don't asks, you looks."

"Bloody elf," Draco knew the old nurse only liked Lucius, and she had an 'attitude' problem with everyone else.

"Misses hides now, the young masters be looking for yu," Mipzy pop in the library to warn Hermione. It wasn't out love, she thrived on conflict, yet…

"Misses when children comes, one is for me, right?" She looked coy, no way.

Hermione couldn't believe her ears, why should she want Mipzy closer to her.

"No sense in planning there aren't babies in the foreseeable future, now scram," was her answer. She had always been nice to most elves but Mipzy reminded her of Kreecher gone bad.

Draco was just outside the library when he heard her. Mipzy was playing her usual intrigues, "Didn't you hear her you trouble maker, go away, " Draco was by Mipzy's side.

Mipzy vanished and Draco had noticed the witch's clothes, holy goddess of love help me here I want this sweet bonbon.

"Are you still researching? Dad L. thinks all the information has been purged, and there is nothing else. By the way, I love your lacquered tiny toes, " his eyes were fixed on the candy bites.

Hermione's Malfoy was in full bloom, the compliment sounded sincere, she wiggled her toes. Her bare legs were stretched on the desk Lucius had moved next to his in the library, he had wanted her by his side.

This had made Draco jealous at once, "A desk next to yours, why, I don't hav…" he stopped his runaway tongue the moment he realized his folly. Lucius had made the same offer to him more than once in the past, and he didn't want to be under his dad's clutches, too late. Now he had a desk on Lucius' other side. Once again his dad got his wishes, he should have seen it coming. He had the matching desk already purchased.

"What is the perfume you have on, I love it."

Hermione noticed his nose was nearly stuck to her neck. "Back up, no perfume on, I had a headache. I did figure out something noteworthy, could you get me a glass of lemonade?" She waited. She looked at his bum, he looked hot…and it invariably took her to the same place, his bare bum at the loo.

"Thanks, I do have a question," Draco's eyes bulged when he saw her hand, a quill, she was directing the wireless music while looking at him with the inquisitor's look, she was truly a chip of the old block. Her inner Malfoy had really bloomed.

"Did you hear what I said?"

"Err, no, since when are you doing the quill thing?" He pointed at her fingers.

"Since I can remember, I did it with a pencil before Hogwarts. What kind of inane question is that," she looked at him, " I asked if you made it a habit to shag witches at the Brooms Closet's loo? I found it gross, I still do."

He turned purple, and made a tactical error, tried to lie. "You must be confused, I don't like that club. Besides, I don't shag in public, I…" What was he saying, he was digging a deeper hole.

"Yeah, I seem to recall your white arse for all to see. And do you know a secret? Astoria had just been with Bill in the wardrobe, Ron saw them and was peeved."

Draco paled, "I, I am going to be sick." He looked green.

"Now you know why I dislike the idea of being with you. Daddy is helping me to end this farce. I have nightmares of you and the queen of slags, though I know you are healthy because the tests before marrying. By the way, Daddy knows that story."

"Why did you tell him?" her hand went up.

"I didn't, Daddy already knew, he had Astoria followed, and the spy heard me screaming and looked in."

"I wasn't with you at the time, it is the past."

"The past or not, I cannot forget what I saw, or you and Pansy at Snape's room, or you…"

"Stop right there, have you been spying on me?"

"Don't be ridiculous I didn't even like you, you were…"

"Don't say it, point well taken. So you know, I won't grant you an out, I happen to want to be with you."

With these words he left the library huffing and mumbling. Mipzy pop right in front of him.

"Masters I have a deal. I wants to be the babies nanny."

He laughed, "What babies? Haven't you noticed we don't even share a bed?"

She lowered her voice, "I gots elven magic to make one forgets things."

"Are you crazy, she would find out, and no, no, I…" Wait there, he should listen to her.

"But how about the magic signature, the traces." The idea has its merits.

"No, nothings, I does this for my little wizard, for my baby."

"You mean my dad?"

"Yes, maybe. It is a secret. I does it if you promise one baby, if you breaks the promise I tell my missis."

Well, Mipzy the intrigue master at a new level, dangling a forbidden carrot, but there was no danger. Mipzy was the main nanny, and Hermione would not change that, but she was…by then she would forgive such tiny sin.

"Okay, but I cannot guarantee the first baby, but the next."

"I needs a drop of your blood."

"Why? I never heard of house-elves and blood magic."

"My masters tolds me is best to make sure."

"My dad has created a monster, you have learned to be a dark elf, okay is a deal, the memories of me err, and other witches, err,"

"Doing married things, I heards."

He rolled his eyes, what a surprise, he almost changed his mind, he was signing a pact with a demon.

"Okay is a deal."

"Yus finger. "

He extended his hand reluctantly. She touched the finger and that was all.

"The blood?"

She showed him a small bottle on her hand, it had one drop of blood, above it a floating sign with his name and date. And pop, she was gone.

"What have I done?" Really how could she ever find out, and if it worked?

He decided to go back to the office. Lucius was at his desk, "We are talking about an obscure scroll my daughter found." He said 'my daughter' every time he had a chance. If Draco had to guess, Nanette took second place to Daddy's princess, it was nauseating, whatever.

He was about as bad as Armand, who sent him 20 owls a day, 60 to date wanting to 'catch-up.' He had asked for a pensive for each year. His mother was staying with friends, Armand was still unhappy about his sister, but surely that wouldn't last.

"So what did your daughter find?"

Hermione covered a giggle.

"She…"

Mipzy had just pop in the room. She was carrying a tray with Hermione's latest craze, jasmin-mango iced tea.

"I don't knows why you drinks this, not proper tea."

"Because I feel like it and…"

"Mipzy thank you and that will be all." Lucius was sad that Mipzy didn't get along with his children.

"Did you know what nosy elf asked me, are you ready? To be the nanny for the imaginary children I won't have with that wizard. But when I do have a baby she will never, ever be the nanny, no way." She looked in Draco's direction. "Why are you sweating?"

"It is hot in here."

"I think you are hiding something."

"Children, enough for today. So I was saying that she found an old scroll, look. "

He pointed at the unrolled parchment. "I dated it, I did today, I'd say it's around around 700 to 800 years old. Granted the illustrations are rather explicit and not well drawn, but she is clearly a Malfoy witch, he is also Malfoy and he is what? The script is damaged but it has an allusion to lost and lust?"

Draco looked, "Bloody hell, they are shagging, early pornography?"

"That language has to go." Lucius reprimanded Draco.

Hermione pointed at the wizard in the photo, his arse was bared. "Familiar no? Wait the picture changes, see?"

The wizard wasn't shagging the Malfoy witch, there was a dark hair fey female on her knees, the Malfoy witch was looking. The first picture was from another angle and you couldn't see the one kneeling.

"Wow, what is this, early smut?"

"Not sure, wait."

The scene changed again, the Malfoy witch was going away, the Malfoy wizard ran after her, and the one on her knees stood and after them, while the whatever just stood watching.

"What does it mean." Draco asked. "I can read here, over the tree, Malfeu."

"I think this is the legend, why the graphics, no idea. One of them was doing wrong. The one in the corner, ah he is wearing a mask, he just took it off. I wish we could read the stanzas."

Right in front of their eyes the parchment turned brown and impossible to see.

They all look at each other, "I think we spent enough time. It was over a betrayal of some kind. If is that old and is still around, it will stay. Now, I wish I knew how it affects me. Hmm, this is delicious, it has a different flavor, what is it?"

Draco guessed Mipzy had fed her something. He waited to see it that was so. "I want a little taste I might like it," Lucius reached and Draco pretended he wanted some as well, and spilled the drink, "So sorry, I also wanted some. "

"You are so clumsy," she growled.

Draco was afraid, Lucius nearly drank the tea. It had been close.

"This biscuit she brought with the tea was yummy. I wonder what it was."

Draco wanted this over, he should not had made any deals, he was going to be found out.

"Sweet witch do you want to go to feed the new baby kneazles?"

"Draco sit down, we are working here."

"Daddy, I want to see the babies, we will be back, maybe take Mom for a stroll, she can use it, " she waggled her eyebrows, stood, and kissed his cheek. He nearly purred, and it made Draco snicker.

On the way to the kneazles she relaxed around him. In the barn every time she bent to pick up a baby Draco stopped breathing. The Muggle shorts showed her bum to perfection. Just a touch, try it, a bite, oh yes.

He got closer and she stood up to find him right behind. His arms went around her waist and she leaned back onto him, he stopped breathing. It had worked, Mipzy had done it.

Slowly he turned her around, afraid she'd realize she was with him. As soon as she was facing him, her arms went around his neck.

Not sure who kissed who, the kiss started playfully, lips barely touching, a nip to her bottom lip, the tip of his tongue gently coaxing her lips to open. His tongue caressed hers and the kiss gathered speed.

The hands on her waist moved to the sides, under her loose top. His eyes were closed, when he felt as if he had moved. He opened his eyes, and he was in their room, well in her room.

"Here?"

"Yes," and kissed him more.

All would be fine, he hoped, this time he would keep his mouth shut. But he wanted to ask herif all had been forgotten. It couldn't hurt.

"My sweet birdie, mistress of my heart, just a question…"

A/n Draco no, no questions. N.O.
