Lord Harry Potter, heir of the
Potter Black and Dumbledore estates, sat in the lavishly furnished Malfoy
Manor, its beauty seemingly undiminished by the countless raids the Ministry
had run here during the war. Merlin, what it must have looked like before all
this started!
“Lord P-Potter?” a house elf asked meekly, a slightly darker
hue than Dobby.
“Yes?”
“Master be here soon, Master say. Proxy ask
what Lord Potter want drink.”
“Tea, no sugar.” he answered curtly, knowing it useless to
use courtesy when dealing with over-punished elves. Besides, he did not appreciate being forced to wait on Lucius of all people. The older man’s offer amused him to
no end, though the opportunity it presented could not be easily passed up.
“I trust
the wait was not overly-long?” Lucius asked,
strutting in with the usual air of superiority. You’d think it was Harry whose future rode on Lucius’ offer, not Lucius’
on Harry’s acquiescence to it.
“Your elves make good tea.” he stated in way of answer, not
caring which the blonde took it as.
“Indeed. I trust you have had ample time to make your
decision?”
“Why Lucius,” Harry countered with
a great deal of amusement, “I’ve already told you I’d make no choice before I
see him without all that magic you
had stuffed him full over the years. As you’ve said, the offer is only good
till he reaches his majority next week, so it is in your interest to hurry this along. The question is, have you finished dissolving all the spells about him so I
may inspect him, or has this meeting truly been an awful waste of my time.”
A child was
legally his father’s property until he reached Majority at eighteen. A father
could do anything with said child, even an heir, until said Majority. Draco
Malfoy was not yet eighteen, and thus a fair bargaining chip in the eyes of Lucius as well as the Ministry. If Lucius
believed his son best served his family name by being traded for protection,
then so it would be… now, the only question left was whether Harry accepted his
school-time rival and the cause of his mentor’s death as payment.
“I have
preformed all the necessary purifications. All the spells and potions have
either been taken off or countered.” the older man assured him, “Shall I call
him in?”
“I trust you’ve also made a list of what was on him?” Harry asked while nodding,
promptly having said piece of parchment handed to him.
From the
moment the young Malfoy entered, Harry knew Lucius
had been as forthcoming as to why the
purifications had been done on him as a brick wall. That is to say, the younger
Malfoy looked as clueless as to Harry’s presence in his ancestral home as
possible.
“Potter? What the fuck?”
“Language, Draco.” his father immediately scorned, probably
afraid Harry would decide the blonde was not worth the trouble.
“It’s alright Lucius,” Harry
assured, “let him do it while he still can.”
“And what the fuck is that supposed to mean, scarhead?”
“Strip to the waist.” Harry ordered, ignoring the blonde’s
question, who in turn looked scandalously at his
father, most likely trying to surmise what the Malfoy patriarch had not cursed
Harry three ways to Sunday by now.
“Do it, Draco.” Lucius ordered, a look that left the younger boy with no choice but
to comply.
“In the center.” Harry amended, the
seats he and Lucius occupied, along with a settee and fireplace forming
a semicircular space between them. A look from Lucius
told the younger boy that this order, too, was to be followed.
Even
without the spells and potions perfecting him, the young Malfoy was a sight
with his shirt off; shorter and less-muscled, but overall not overly-changed.
Harry could practically feel the blonde’s apprehension as he stood and began to
circle his school-time rival like a predator stalking his immobilized prey.
Then again, the blonde was just that… in a way. Amazing how one look form his father had cowed the young blonde so thoroughly.
“Acceptable,
I hope?”
Harry continued to look over the boy in question, ignoring Lucius’ quarry. Yes, definitely acceptable… but he wasn’t
about to state that on Lucius’ terms.
“He retains his status as heir apparent of the Malfoy
fortune, of course?”
“… yes.” Lucius
agreed begrudgingly, the tone making it apparent that he was hoping to have
slipped at least that past the
Gryffindor.
“And he is untouched?”
“By men, women, or Voldemort’s
mark in particular?” Lucius bated him to no
avail.
“The latter.” the other ways the blonde had or hadn’t
retained his purity could wait till Harry had formally agreed. It mattered
little compared to the other questions he had previously asked… besides, the
blush that reached all the way to the blonde’s chest nearly assured him that
the answer to both was no.
“He did not have the chance to mark him.”
“Acceptable.”
Harry finally agreed once he looked the blonde over once more from the chair he
had slowly made his way back to, taking a casual sip of tea as if the statement
mattered little to him. Best seem indifferent at times like these, after all.
“Excellent. Would you like to perform the binding now, or-”
“Binding!”
“Silence, Draco, do not make this harder on yourself by angering us both.” Lucius
snapped, the impact of his words making the younger blonde back up a few steps.
“Now will be fine.” Harry agreed,
stepping up to the blonde boy who’d soon be his in every sense of the word. He
could almost see his crest over the boy’s heart and forearm.
