Welcome! I have a challenge for you. I'd like you to listen to each song I've listed for the chapter and rewrite it as a creative exercise. I love seeing what others think about my work and how they interpret it.

Chapter 1

Lucius Malfoy was lounging with a book when he suddenly felt nauseous. Scowling, he got up and made his way to the bathroom. Once there, he retched into the toilet, using a quick spell to vanish the mess. He groaned, his stomach twisting painfully. Feeling absolutely dreadful, he sought outa his mother, who was busy working.

"Mother," he said, stepping into the room.

"Mother, I got sick in the bathroom. I don't feel well. My stomach hurts so bad, and I feel dizzy. I just want you, Mum."

"Sit down, Lucius," Harden said, his voice filled with worry. "I'll call the family healer." He looked startled by the news.

Just then, Abraxas Malfoy walked in with the healer.

Healer Jones walked over. "Lucius, can you tell me what you're feeling right now?"

Lucius replied, "I'm feeling nauseous. My stomach hurts, and I'm really tired. I sometimes wake up to use the bathroom more, and I feel bloated all the time."

Healer Jones said, "I'm going to scan you to find out what's wrong."

After the scans, she looked at him and asked, "Lucius, are you sexually active?"

"Um, why?" Lucius replied, confused.

Jones said, "It looks like you're pregnant."

Lucius sat there in shock.

"Is this true, Lucius?" Abraxas asked, his voice filled with disbelief.

Harden, looking stunned, approached him. "Who is the baby's other parent?"

"Um," Lucius said, blinking back tears. "Severus Snape. We've been close, but… um, I don't want to do this alone, Mum. I'm scared."

The healer quietly took her leave.

"Lucius," Abraxas asked sternly, "was this consensual?"

"Lucius, was it consensual?" Abraxas asked.

"Yes, it was, Father," Lucius replied. "But he told me if this happened, he didn't want anything to do with me again."

Harden frowned. "We need to sit down and talk to Severus and his father. This is unacceptable."

"Mom, I don't want to make anyone mad at me. Please, no," Lucius pleaded.

Harden frowned. "Lucius, your father needs to call them over so we can discuss this."

Tobias Snape looked shocked as Abraxas Malfoy contacted him. He called for Severus to go to Malfoy Manor.

Severus frowned as they Floo to the Manor. He looked at Lucius, somewhat annoyed, and huffed, "I have to study. "

Harden looked at him, pissed. "Look here, I brought you here because you got my son pregnant, and I'm not happy about it. You told him you wanted nothing to do with it if it happened."

Severus looked at him and said, "I told him if we had sex and a baby happened, it was because he didn't cast the pregnancy prevention charm. I have to study for my Potions Master's. I don't have time for this."

Harden glared as Abraxas spoke. "Well then, if that's the case," he said, looking at Severus and Tobias, "I want half of what Lucius is going to need while pregnant, including appointments. I'm not happy about this, but I will protect my son."

"Father, I… I did cast the charm."

Lucius frowned. "Something must have happened when I was casting it. Isn't the other person supposed to cast it too?" He looked at Severus and frowned deeper. "I told you this, and you didn't. If you didn't want to be with me anymore, why string me along? Was I just a fuck-and-run to you?"

Lucius started crying and left the room, leaving his shocked parents behind. Harden went to comfort him.

Abraxas turned to Severus and said, "He is not wrong. Did he tell you this? Because I'm not pleased with what has happened, but you will pay and stay away. I will collect money from your account as needed. I don't want you around him again, and custody will be his if he deems it so."
