Chapter 24
I walk into the room and lay on the bed. There is a tapping on the window and I see Draco's eagle owl. I let her in and took the letter off her leg.
My sweet Adrie,
I have sensed that you have changed into veela form. I can only assume Father has made a comment that has upset you. Please ignore his bigoted ways and I apologize for his behavior. I will see you in 2 days I have some business to take care of out of the country.
All My Love,
Draco A. Malfoy
I decide to write him back.
Dearest Draco,
Yes your Father has upset me by insulting not only Hermione, but Ginny too. He also insulted me about being kind to house elves. I am calm now and got to see your Mother in action. It was quit pleasing. I count the minutes until I see you again.
Love Always,
Adrienne N. Richard (soon to be Malfoy)
After I send the letter I decide to take a bath and walk into the bathroom. It is the most gorgeous bathroom in the world. The walls where white with gold leaf trim. The large claw foot tub in the corner was ivory. Then in the other corner was a white shower with gold shower head. I turned the water on for the bath tub and went to the wall to wall counters against on wall and brushed my teeth and pulled the pins from my hair and brushing out my now curly hair. The tub is finally filled and I turn off the water and put a permanent heating charm. I slowly lowered my aching body into the steaming water. It feels amazing and I sink in so only my eyes and nose where above the water after a few minutes I fully submerge in the water and stay there for a while until I hear a scream and hands pulling me out. "Mistress Adrienne, don't die on Pinky!" she yelled trying to pump the air into me. "Pinky! I'm fine. My mother is a Water Nymph I can hold my breath for a long time." I say pushing her off so I can sit up, trying to cover my chest and lower reigns. Pinky snaps and a towel is around me. Her wide eyes brimmed with tears. "Pinky thought Mistress was hurt! Pinky had come to tell you dinner was ready and Pinky finds you under water!" she says before sobbing. "But Pinky lunch hasn't past yet?" I question. "No it was hours ago and when I went to get you Mistress Malfoy said to let you rest." she sobs. I look down at my hands and realize they are all prune-y. "Oh I guess I lost track of time..." I say sheepishly. "But Mistress if you've been under the water for hours how are you not dead?" Pinky asked. "I have no idea Pinky. Now if you'll excuse I must change for dinner I will call you back to do my hair." I say. "Yes Mistress Adrienne." she says with a low bow, her ears hitting the floor. "Oh and Pinky..." I say before she leaves. "Yes Mistress?" she asks turning back to me. "Is it a formal dinner?" I ask. "Every dinner is a formal dinner at Malfoy Manor." she says. "Thank you Pinky that will be all." I say turning to go to my closet.
