Finally Belonging Somewhere-Part 28:

Lunch wasn't as tense as Narcissa thought it was going to be. Druella apologised to Aurora and the little witch accepted it.

"I'm sure you three have a lot to discuss so I'll show Aurora my rooms and then I can show her outside. She can see the peacocks again," Draco said, "I can show her the horses again."

"That would be lovely Draco," Narcissa said softly before turning to Aurora, "Lilly will be with you so you have nothing to worry about," she said and Aurora nodded before she carried on eating her lunch.

"How does Draco's room differ from yours Mummy?" Aurora asked.

"Well the books are different and Draco has a lot of model dragons…"

"Because Draco means dragon in…Latin!" Aurora said.

"That is correct my Little Flower and your name means dawn," Narcissa smiled before she cleaned Aurora up and then waited for Draco to finish and then helped Aurora down and watched her head off with Draco.

"Why will she let Draco near her but not Lucius?" Druella asked.

"We have no idea," Lucius said, "we suspect it's because she's spent more time with Draco because of school."

"But hopefully with the weekend trips to Hogsmeade Draco and Aurora, along with us will take some of the fear she has of Lucius away," Narcissa said, "that girl is part of this family now mother and nothing will ever change that."

"Welcome to my room. It's different to yours and I not only have an ensuite but I also have a library," Draco said, "now watch for the dragons," he said as he opened the door and led her inside before quickly closing the door.

Aurora looked around and gasped before Draco smiled and saw the dragons waiting for her to join them in the air so he gently levitated her up so she could see the dragons better. She cried out as a dragon blew fire in her face but she soon realised it couldn't hurt her and she relaxed.

He left her up there for a while before making sure she landed on the bed.

"Come on. I'll show you my library," Draco said, "now there are different books in here to your bookshelves but there are some from my childhood that I still have," he said before pointing her through a door and watching as she looked through the door and then walked through. He felt like he was looking at his mother when she was Aurora's age. He'd seen the photos of his mother. No. She was not his missing sister. He knew it was a girl from the Black Family Tree that was in his mother's study.

"Draco? Where are the books?" came Aurora's voice, snapping him from his thoughts before he went and pointed some out to her. He grabbed his copy of The Tales of Beadle the Bard.

"Pick one and I'll read it to you before we go outside," he said softly.

"The Three Brothers," Aurora said instantly, "that's my favourite." Draco smiled and nodded before he went and sat down and began to read the story as Aurora sat on the floor and crossed her legs as she listened.

"Will those girls get away with what they've done to Aurora?" Druella asked as the three sat having a FireWhiskey.

"No. The Minister has launched a full investigation into what has been going on there," Lucius said, "it's really just a formality because Healer Jones' report and Narcissa's witness statement and those that provided them at Hogwarts have enough to be able to have Pansy, Chloe and Natalie dealt with but the Minister wants it formally handled."

"Why has it taken this long?" Druella asked, "there's been a serious case of abuse and it's taken six weeks to be started…"

"We only took her a couple of weeks back to St. Mungo's and Dumbledore wanted to look through the report," Narcissa said, "but all the evidence has been gathered and there is a two part investigation going on now."

"Let's hope that will bring those girls to justice," Druella said.

"How do you feel about your missing sibling?" Aurora asked Draco, a few moments after he'd finished reading to her.

The wizard looked at the younger witch,

"How do you know about that?" he asked.

"Mummy told me when she was showing around the family area of the Manor," Aurora said before she looked down. She soon found herself pulled up and onto Draco's lap.

"I don't really remember anything," he said, "I was only around four when it happened. I just remember mother and father being extremely upset and I stayed with Grandmother Priscilla and Grandfather Abraxas for a few weeks."

"Daddy's parents," Aurora remembered, "but don't you want them here and not me?"

"Why would I? Yes I do often wonder what they are doing and what they look like but I have you Aurora and I wouldn't have it any other way," he said wrapping his arms around her, "you are what matters and that's that. Now let's go outside and I'll teach you to groom a horse," he said before getting Lilly to get Aurora's cloak before the two headed outside.

Snowdrop instantly walked over to her owner before Draco showed her another way around the garden before they arrived at the horses. One of them instantly went up to Aurora and let Aurora stroke it.

"Trixie," Draco said softly before he went to get the grooming equipment and soon appearing beside her again.

"Is she named after Mummy's sister?" Aurora asked before Draco began to show her what to do.

"Mother says no but I think she is," Draco said, "Aunt Bellatrix is currently in Azkaban for doing something very vey bad but she has said sorry and will do good things when she is out so she may be able to come and stay here but we shall have to see." He grabbed a stool and stood Aurora on it before watching as she groomed Trixie and he kept his arm behind her.

"I'm going to leave you two ladies to talk about Bellatrix whilst I go and check on them down by the horses," Lucius said before he kissed Narcissa softly and excused himself before heading outside. Instantly the two women headed to the window to watch Lucius and the children.

"You know father can take you on her if you let him," Draco said,

"As in ride her?" Aurora asked.

"Yes these are human flying friendly and father has to take everyone when it's their first couple of rides," Draco said, "but you have to trust him enough to take you up."

"What are we talking about?" Lucius asked.

"Oh Aurora wants to ride her but she won't say the correct words," Draco said, "but Trixie here is already letting Aurora groom her."

Lucius watched the witch with the horse before he gently rested a hand on her shoulder.

"Would you like to go up?" he asked her, "you have to go up with me and let me hold you close though," he said before Aurora looked at him.

"Promise you won't hurt me," she said softly and Lucius took her hand in his,

"Oh Aurora! I'd never hurt you and if I do it's always to stop you hurting yourself," he said, unaware Narcissa and Druella were on the way out to them.

"Then take me up," Aurora smiled softly. Lucius nodded and sat her on Trixie before he climbed on behind her and showed her how to hold on before he signalled to Trixie to go.

Lucius caught sight of Narcissa and her mother stood by Draco before they took off and Aurora squealed in delight as they flew through the air and Lucius just watched as Aurora smiled at him and he used his free arm to point things out to her, including the Manor. He smiled as she began to relax into him and he loosened his grip slightly as he just listened to Aurora gasp as she saw things. He just wanted her safe and happy. If he could do that then he would be very happy indeed.

"Thank you for bringing me ups!" Aurora smiled at him.

"You're welcome princess," Lucius smiled, "You're very welcome Cissa's Little Flower."
