CHAPTER 14.
Carefully cracking the door open he saw them. The two young lovers embraced as they slept. Pride etched into the trade mark smirk.
She was good for him. Draco had a prize in his arms now, and he was proud to say his son knew it. As much as it pained him to think of all the time lost, and how she could have just as easily been raised as a sister to his son. In the deepest parts of his heart he was almost glad that she had not. She brought out the best in Draco, even if his son didn't know it yet. And her upbringing gave her different morals and a different understanding of how the world could be in a different life. Yet she is smart enough to understand the magical world as well, and coexist despite the extreme complexities that are apart of both worlds.
He chuckled quietly as he closed the door again. He almost wished he could witness their arguments and heated debates. If only to see how easily they challenged one another.
Holding the lantern in one hand he made his way through the labyrinth of hallways in his home, coming to a familiar portrait he smiled at the two smiling figures inside and nodded a greeting.
"Good friends. Its good to see you in such spirits again."
"Lucius"
The man smiled.
"You have no idea how thankful I am that she is once again in the care of proper witches and wizards. You have my deepest gratitude."
"Oh yes, dear Lucius. Thank you so much"
The woman crooned her smile bright as she holds on to her husband.
"She is so beautiful. And I can sense the power in her. We didn't know that it would be so much. Do you think she is strong enough to control it?"
The painting rippled with her movements as if the very magic of the object could sense her worry.
"Kana darling. It is my pleasure to be here for her during this time, but I'm afraid my son is doing a much better job than I"
To this he chuckled his eyes shining with pride.
"I actually think that our families will be joining at some point if they keep up this rapport."
Kana Phoenix's eyes lit up as she released her husband clapping her hands excitedly, Her husband reflecting the same pride as the man in the hall. His voice deep echoed with a hint of humor.
"Our grandchildren will be the epitome of what it means to be Pure."
"OH! Grandchildren!"
Kana's eye got even bigger leaking slightly with tears of delight, before pulling out a hankerchief to dab at her eyes.
Lucius laughing now held up his hand.
"All in good time. Besides im too young yet to be a Grandrather."
"Oh you hush your mouth Lucius Malfoy! If they are to give me grandchildren you will just sit back and let them!"
She burst out then cleared her throat smoothing out her robes.
"After they are married of course."
Morgan Phoenix laughed again looking amused between his wife and their visitor.
"Im sure Lucius will have no qualms when the time comes. But we must remember dear they are still just children. And there are more pressing matters to be dealt with. While I too am enamored with the idea of grandchildren. There are trials coming that they need to be focused on for themselves and the future of our world."
All three, solemn eyed to his words nodded in unison.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The evening was cool, a subtle draft wafted through the quiet halls as his footsteps echoed around him. His mind heavy with thought as to what was to become of his future. Sleep, he knew would not come quickly and so he made his way towards his study. Walking inside the the flames lit up to his pressance. He turned to draw the double doors closed, and stilled as he heard a creak as his chair swiveled around.
"Rodulfus we do have a door you know. Unless i'm mistaken we do still practice decorum."
The seated man sneered, although just as pristine as Lucius was the man seemed to still shine a subtle greasiness that no matter how many times one bathed could not rid themselves of. It was like an aura, thick around his form.
"Lucius, why you are still within ranks I do not know. Or why he chooses to allow you your accomodations. But one day he will see you for what you really are."
To this he spit to the side.
Lifting his hand to his forehead Lucius sighed.
"Must you do that?"
Rodolfus just glared at him.
"And I ll have you know. I am very loyal to the Dark Lord. Just as you are. Now, why have you broken into my home at such an hour? To spit on my Persian rugs?"
"Don't be coy Lucius you know exactly why Im here. One hour. Don't be late."
With that the greasy man apparated out of the room.
"Right"
Lucius said quietly to himself as he walked carefully to a large cabinet and unlocked the doors to reveal a rather large emmaculate pensieve. Lifting his wand he pulled from his mind the memories of his day. Something he had started doing for a long time. And then set down for a few moments to jot in a large leather bound book next to the pensieve. Upon finishing he put the book back in its place and closed the cabinet locking the door.
Grabbing his cloak and cane locked his study and spelled it, then apparated out of the room.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Lucssius, what a pleassure. Come, come sit by me."
The elder Malfoy nodded to his master before moving down the table to take a seat. Leaning is cane against the dark mahogany table then resting his hands neatly in his lap.
"I recieved a message you wished to see me my Lord?"
"To the point Lusssius. I alwayss liked that abouttt you. How are thingsss progresssing? I trusst you have a reeeeporrrt forr mee?" The slick voice rasped.
"My lord she is at the manor as we speak. Spending time with Draco. They seem to have formed a relationship."
He paused here momentarily taking care in what he was about to say.
"I am fearful of her my Lord. Her power is remarkable. But she doesn't know how to use it yet. She has had an episode in her sleep it seems"
Voldemort nodded listening to Lucius, steepling his fingers.
"Tell me about this episode you speak of."
Nodding to his master the elder Malfoy continued.
"It seems when she is angered, even in dreams her power grows. Substantcially at that. She was having a dream about something in which my son was harmed. And she lashed out at the aggressors. But her magic manifested as if she were really casting. For now it seems her power is only accessible to her during times of great emotional duress. She destroyed several pieces of furniture. Which could have easily been one of us if we had tried to interviene. She only calmed down once Draco called out to her."
A slow smile played on the serpentine man's lips, his already slitted eyes narrowed in cruel calculation momentarily shifted up towards the white haired man then looked away as if storing some information. He then let his hands fall to the table with a loud thump palms down and stood up.
"I want you to encourage her to learn from her parents. I understand she has already seen the portrait and visits often."
Lucius nodded
"Indeed my Lord."
"Good. I want her to feel as though we are the better choice. Answer every question carefully but with the air of giving. I don't want her to feel as though we are hiding anything from her. I know she doesn't trust us yet, and I want to change that. She would make a great asset to our cause."
Again the man nodded listing to his master speak. His own thoughts racing, as he was also wary of his master. He had seen that look in the man's eyes before and no one had ever benefited from it. He needed to warn his family just in case something were to happen.
He followed the cause because he believed it would better his family in the long run. Protecting them was tentamount to everything this hinged on. Dumbledore he knew would do his best to triumph, but the Malfoys were always at odds with those who claimed to follow the light.
Voldemort wished to be in the seat of power over all the world and if that were the plan then that is where the Malfoys should be. In power along with him. To survive.
But through all this, he knew that to his master, everyone and anyone was expendable. So even a fight to power weighed heavily on survival, and Lucius knew one thing about Hermione.
Whether she knew it or not at this point, she was in a position of power much greater than any of them.
