Draco had given up, he hadn't been successful in getting Harianna to buy things for the twins with him. Now she was seven months along, Draco was not going to wait a moment longer ... so in secret, he had taken a trip to Diagon Alley when he knew Ria to be at Saint Mungo's for a checkup. Desperate times called for desperate measures, and even though he had no clue into what he was doing, Draco at least knew what basic requirements babies needed, and the assistant had been extremely helpful.

Ria was still out by the time he had reached The Thicket, so Draco took the shrunken items up into the old bedroom he had used. Several days ago, on a whim, Draco had brought some pale yellow paint, if Harianna wanted to ignore the fact that the babies existed, that was her choice - for Draco believed now that was what she was doing, denying all knowledge of her pregnancy. But Draco was not going to wait for a moment longer, he was going to be prepared, his children would at least have somewhere to sleep. He put the shrunken items in the cupboard and walked out of the room again.

He walked along the corridor towards the landing to go back down the stairs, when he stopped to face an open door. Normally this wouldn't be unusual, but the door that had been left ajar was the one that contained Harianna's study. Draco pushed the door open and walked into the seemly empty messy room. Which it was, it was absent of human presence, parchment was scattered about by the desk, books un-neatly piled onto shelves of bookcases. And two photo frames were shining proudly upon the desk, Draco was drawn to them.

The first photograph was non-moving, it contained a wide smiling Harianna, with a man whose arm was wrapped around her, bearing a smile that matched Harianna's. Draco did not know who the man was himself, but he had seen others of him when he had been at the Mason's. The man in the picture was Theo Mason, the husband Ria had watch die in front of her. Draco turned his attention to the other frame, which to his surprise contained two photographs, the first in the actual frame itself and a loose one tucked into a corner of the frame. The loose photograph brought a smile to his face, for it wasn't actually a photograph, but a picture of the last scan of twins, Draco had only known that due to the time and date that had been printed onto it. The other had been another scan of a baby, at first Draco thought that it had been an older scan of their twins', when he noticed his mistake, instead of two life-forms, the scan contained one. Draco noticed something else different about the scans, the one that contained the twins, printed Harianna's surname as Potter, the other Mason.

'His name was Kai.'

Draco jumped, spinning around to the voice that sounded from behind him. Harianna did not look upset or angry with him, and Draco placed the photograph down again.

'I named him Kai ...' Harianna continued, walking towards him, 'middle name Theo after his father ... he would have been six, the day Teddy did a runner ...'

The words hit Draco's brain hard, and quite suddenly everything he knew about James Evans and Harianna fell into place. He could understand her reluctancy now.

'I'm scared Draco.' Harianna said.

'It won't be like that ... you won't have to go through -' Draco swallowed the lump in his throat, he reached out cupping her face, 'not alone ... this time you won't be alone.'

Harianna threw herself at him, arms wrapping around his neck, her body shaking as she sobbed, and Draco held her, unsure whether it was the hormones that had made her finally break or whether she had just held onto her past for too long without ever talking about it. Why else would she go to such lengths to keep it all a secret? And have those who had known keep the information so guarded?

A.N. well not many more chapter to go until I've completed this, sorry this took so long, but I wrote this several times before settling upon this to be how Draco to find out about Kai. Killer to soon be revealed ... and the reason as into why ... hopefully, I'll be able to update it all soon, as I've got most of it written out. x
