Since I bit Draco, my alpha has relaxed quite a bit.I no longer feel that overwhelming fury from the desire to reach out and run my nose over his scent gland.Now it is only enough for me to perceive his essence in the air, so I know that he is there and I am calm.
The mark Harry made on Draco's neck was not as deep because Draco's heat symptoms were being controlled by the suppressants and Harry, despite being coerced by Draco's pheromones, was only partial.He was horny like any alpha mage subjected by his destined partner, but there were still traces of reasoning in his mind.Both factors helped make the bite simply superficial and therefore temporary.
This didn't stop Draco from "subtly" showing the entire Ministry that he had been bitten by the most desired alpha in the entire wizarding world.That subtlety was reflected in the choker that Harry had previously given her during the period of courtship related to the water element.The choker was beautiful;The elegance of the black deer lace contrasted perfectly with the beautifully ornate blue agate pendant. At the base, draped white gold chains completed the jewel, making Malfoy's neck shine much more.For many years, omegas used to wear chokers to draw attention to their necks so that other alphas would see their alpha's bite, announcing to them that they had already been claimed.
Malfoy entered the Ministry dining room with a light and elegant walk, at his sides his friends followed him looking just as distinguished as the blonde.And the rest of the workers seemed very surprised by it.
—Why is it so interesting that Malfoy wears a choker with a blue stone?Dennis Creevey asked.Being a Muggle-born he was unaware of many of the courting traditions of purebloods.
— Oh, I've read about it!Hermione exclaimed before Ron explained why.Ancient cultures, including Egyptian, Babylonian, and Islamic civilizations, used theblue agatestone as a symbol of protection.They also related it to the balance of emotions, harmony and purification of the heart.That Malfoy wears a blue agate choker means that his person is protected, by magic and by the alpha who gave him the choker.
"Apart from the fact that he brags to the entire wizarding world that Harry bit him," Ron completed.
The alpha in question blushed furiously upon hearing his name.And he hid behind a copy of the newspaper The Prophet, pretending that he was concentrating on reading.
For his part, Draco pretended to be indifferent to the prying eyes of the workers.And he opened his lunch, as he always used to do, in a careful and orderly manner.
This time we won't sit with Potter?Theo questioned.
Draco shook his head.
I want to give him a little time.
For what?"She," she questioned with a frown.
To process… everything.
Theo jester
He's too Gryffindor to realize that you set him up and he's surrounded by too many Gryffindors, but Granger, although she lacks cunning, is quite intelligent.What will happen if he makes the deductions from him?he whispered.
The blonde shrugged.
You already said it, Potter is too Gryffindor, I have nothing to worry about.
The brunette shook his head, but smiled.
I already said that that timeyou forgotto use the odor suppressants, it was just a coincidence.And with what I know now, I can confirm my theory.
What theory is that?He asked, intrigued.
You threatened to turn me into coal, so…
Draco narrowed his eyes at him menacingly, not at all happy with what his friend was saying.
"By the way, the choker looks good on you," Theodore mentioned before taking a bite of his caprese salad.
Of course I look good, everything looks good on me."Besides, I have to admit, Potter has shown to have excellent taste in jewelry," she replied with an arrogant smile.He briefly caressed the jewel with his fingertips and then proceeded to eat his lunch.While she was chewing, she looked towards the table where Potter was, noticing that he was looking at her, he smiled at her and when the alpha responded with an even bigger smile he felt his heartbeat speed up.
