I received the new year at the Malfoy mansion, since I am Draco's suitor it was important that I do so.I don't know whether to feel proud or ashamed of making Draco laugh and make sarcastic comments all night at the expense of my suffering for not knowing the traditions related to the celebration of Yule.It's been so long since I've seen him smile like that (maybe the last time was in the fourth year at Hogwarts) that I think I'll feel proud to make him smile so naturally, even if it's at my expense (again).
When the holidays ended and they resumed their activities, the entire magical society already knew it.They knew that Harry Potter was officially courting Draco Malfoy.Something that did not please those who also wanted the omega.He also did not please those who intended to seduce Harry very much.Anyway, the following months became a real chaos;first because inThe Daily Prophetthey couldn't stop talking about him and Draco, every day they surprised the public with an article about one or both of them.Secondly, because Hermione, as unspeakable, was working with them on the last case assigned to Harry's team, but as the time spent extended, she seemed more obsessed with the work than ever and third, because she had to start with the first stage of courtship and He was worried about meeting the blonde's expectations.Since Harry had decided to be as traditional as possible he had to adhere as best as possible to the so-calledcourtship of the four elements.A courtship that took place in four stages, each stage being an element;water, air, earth and fire.
Right now he would have to start with the element of water, where he really didn't have to do much more than give Draco many gifts, one a day if he saw fit, they could be anything he decided as long as it had to do with the element. water.
This is how Harry entered the Ministry dining room with a blue aquamarine bracelet, a symbol of happiness, youth, vitality and spirituality.
"Draco," he called once he reached the table where Malfoy and his classmates were eating lunch and offered the bracelet.Harry was red to the neck, embarrassed and intimidated by the stares of those present, but at this stage it had to be that way, all gifts offered had to be done publicly.
The blonde looked interested (something that did not go unnoticed by him was Harry's magic vibrating in the crystal, the alpha had placed protection spells against darkness, which not just anyone could conjure, thus he let Draco know that when someone wanted hurt himagain, his magic would protect him) and with a smug expression he uncovered his wrist so Harry could place it.As soon as his wrist felt the cold of the silver he began to closely inspect the jewel, this is how he was able to read the engraving that appeared on the inside of the strap, which said "I will protect you from everyone, even from me." ยป.
"I'm sorry about the sectumsempra," Harry said, now embarrassed by what he did all those years ago.I'm truly sorry.
"You're an idiot, Potter," he responded with a small smile. That wasn't a positive response in itself, but Harry knew it meant he forgave him for what he did that day.
It was from then on that they began to become closer, sometimes Draco still spoke to him reluctantly, but mostly when Harry himself asked for it.
On the other hand - in relation to work - as the days went by, Harry felt that he needed the opinion of another person, besides Hermione, who was already very busy with work.Well, actually Harry kept complaining about how much Hermione tortured him, so Draco offered to help him.Harry accepted happily.And now, Harry and Draco were in the office, analyzing the folders of information.
At first, Harry was happy, he was with Draco and had escaped Hermione's scolding, but he soon realized that his choice of partner did not make the investigation any easier.
Draco was much more nagging, less patient and less understanding.
Whenever Harry didn't understand something he would snort in annoyance and make a comment about how lazy the alpha was, although in the end, reluctantly, he would end up explaining it again.
"Potter, don't fall asleep," Draco hit Harry's shoulder, who had his head completely resting on the desk.It had been six hours of hard work, the progress was significant so it was more than enough for Harry, but Draco seemed more than encouraged to continue torturing him.
"Potter, I said no..." he snorted, Harry had fallen fast asleep.
Draco looked around, several hours had actually passed, there were no longer murmurs in the hallways, most of the workers had surely gone home.
Resigned to the fact that Potter wasn't going to make it through the day, he decided to wake him up with a knock on the head, but then he saw his sleeping face, he looked so peaceful.
Draco couldn't help his heart tremble, it was logical, after all Potter was his destined mate, but there was something about the alpha that had always moved and captivated him, since they were little.
Without even thinking, he brought one of his hands to the alpha's tousled hair and slowly stroked the soft strands.She simply let her fingers run back and forth caressing her scalp.Suddenly, she heard a light sound coming from the alpha's throat.She stopped the movement of his hand, then did it again, discovering that Potter was purring.
He snorted and laughed amused.
How could he be so relaxed when a dealer in potions and dark artifacts was on the loose?
"You're quite a character, Potter," he said before taking a good lock of black hair in his fist and beginning to shake the alpha's head from side to side.Wake up, lazy man!
