Hey guys, so this chapter is going to be scattered throughout the remaining year and a half before the wedding and binding of Riddle. Mainly because I don't think I can think of enough material to have like ten chapters pertaining to just a year, nor would I drag you guys through that when it really doesn't help the story move along. There are going to be many characters point of views in this chapter; so I will be adding their name above the passage to help you guys in knowing whose first-person mindset your reading. No smut sorry, this chapter is here to hurry the wedding & binding...it's going to be EPIC I promise. ;)

Luna
Red wine and blood...frosted mirrors and blood splattered snow...pain...betrayal...Neville holding me as I bleed out on the snow. I gasp as I sit up from my four poster bed, gasping I clutch my throat as I try to breathe. It was a dream Luna...breathe, it was only a dream...
I try to calm my racing heart as my body soon begins to breathe in normal mouthfuls of fresh cooling air.
I shiver unceremoniously as the chilled forest winds graze my sweat-slicked body. My throat still burns as I rise and head towards the lattice window. I stare at the glittering jeweled lake lost to my thoughts…

“ Did you have another nightmare Luna?” , says a quiet voice near the doorway leading to the rest of Oberon's cottage.
I jumped from my reverie as I turn to the door. Ginny was standing there with lifeless brown eyes, her red hair sparkles in the moonlight giving her skin a pale look. I close the window before returning to my bed and sitting my upright. Ginny's arms were crossed and her face held no emotions as she followed my movements slowly.
“ Yes I ... it still remains unclear, however, I fear death in our immediate futures”, I murmur to her as I pat the spot next to me beckoning Ginny to sit beside me. She simply stares at the spot before returning her cryptic dull eyes to my startled blue ones.

“Everyone fears death, Luna”, Ginny’s voice is void of emotion as she continues to lean on my door frame. “ Even the bravest wizard must dread the uncertainty of it all... the unknown journey to damnation ” She finally walks to the mirror near the corner and stares at her reflection.
“ My dreams come true Ginny... they are visions... they are unclear yet I feel pain and blood and...red wine and death”, I murmur sadly as I watch Ginny’s eyes snap to mine across the mirrored reflection. She tenses slightly at my words but does not turn around, instead choosing to stare at me through the mirrored glass.
Her eyes were so filled with loathing and pain.
“ You’re an Oracle Luna?” She asks curiously. I nod softly as I return her gaze. Her stillness was so unsettling... I shiver involuntarily. Ginny continues to stare at me through the glass.
“ And you dreamed... of our deaths?” she finally says through clenched teeth. I stare into her eyes, they were not dull anymore but full of fire.

“ I do not know if we all die, just that death is near” I jump from my bed and move behind Ginny’s form. Her fist was clenched so tightly that her skin was bone white and made her freckles stand out on her arms and clavicle like specks of dried blood.

" Ginny you know you can trust me, right? I would understand anything you told me, we were such good friends in school..." I say softly as I pull back her long red hair. Ginny's eyes begin to water as if she desperately wanted to divulge everything to me this very instant. I hold my breath, scared that I may ruin the moment, however it doesn't last long and Ginny's eyes return to their lifeless state.
" Hogwarts was a long time ago Luna", she murmurs sadly before turning back towards the door leading to the hallway.
" Ginny?", I say breathlessly. Ginny turns around with a blank face and raised an eyebrow.
" I just wanted you to know that I would never stab you in the back, I'm your friend forever Gin." , I smile softly as I await her reply. Ginny stares at me, she takes in my lavender nightgown and loose silvered hair. Her eyes finally snap back to mine and she smiles, however, the merriment does not reach her eyes...they remain dead.
" I know you are Luna", Ginny Weasley murmurs before heading towards her own room in the attic.

I stand in my spot for minutes, replaying our conversation in my head before climbing back into my bed and underneath the woolen covers. I fall asleep to a dull ache between my shoulder blades…
Red wine… frosted mirrors… daggers and death are what welcome me in my dreams.

Hermione
August 2006
The months pass with a blur, I try not to think about my impending marriage to the Riddle and his binding, no… our binding to Tír na nÓg. I was ready to bind Riddle. I had all the elements needed, air from my father’s land, stone from our thrones, dragon fire; which Draco had to pay quite a few Galleons to procure, and a mermaid tear for turning the lake summer. They were all hidden from Riddle in my library. Last month I even figured out how to achieve a fae essence. I woke up one night from my dreamless sleep and it dawned on me. I read in the gold book gifted to me by Tom, that fae soul would transfer to nature when they pass away. I went to the room of requirement and willed the willow tree to come forth, the very same one months ago that shrouded the water nymph’s mangled body. There I called forth her essence, it took a while and I was quite exhausted after using so much power, but her glowing soul came forth and I guided it into a glass jar. I felt horrible disturbing her rest and even worse at the idea of her soul turning into Unseelie, however, this was the only way to stop Tom. I feared that I was more of a monster than my love at times.
Majority of my time was spent at the boarding school. I had to make sure that once I was gone It would it would run smoothly under McGonagall and Lupin's care. Thankfully the Magical Manifesto eliminated the purebloods from taking over the school, well at least for two hundred years. I was certain by then that blood prejudice would…should be eradicated.
Tom was busy running his world and I rarely saw him, besides our usual training and when he forced me to play his queen among his pureblood society. Majority of the wizarding world was ecstatic at the union of our marriage and for months we received gifts from very influential people in Riddle's reign. The school term ended at the beginning of June, the majority of the school was empty which I did not mind one bit. I often found myself walking the dark passages of Hogwarts, to clear my heavy mind. I haven’t seen much of Draco and Blaise due to school being out, however, they would often meet me at Hogsmeade to enjoy a quick butterbeer before heading back to the school. I could tell the Blaise wanted to talk to me alone, however, I always found a way to slip away. I wasn't ready to discuss our conversation for months earlier. One Slytherin was difficult enough thank you very much.
Harry and the gang were quite use to their home now, Neville and Luna spent much of their time exploring my father’s lands, collecting and documenting the rare plants throughout the heavy summer forest. Ron and Harry spent much of their time training and enjoying the summer, carefree for now. Ginny was sadly still keeping to herself, apparently, she avoided the others when possible and refused to write in the journal to talk to me. I was certain the Imperio curse changed her mind…fractured it. I vowed to heal her with my fae powers when I finally used the sister pearl to travel there. I still had to figure out how to send them all back to Earth, although Harry claimed they were not leaving me alone with Riddle on this vast unexplored land. I vowed to find my father’s summer palace, apparently, it would only reveal itself to those of royal Seelie blood. Harry promised that they would not step forth into Unseelie lands until it was time to bind Riddle. I explained that they would need to draw an exact replica of the rune circle I will be procuring here for the binding to take, thankfully the journal allowed me to draw the very complex diagram for them to copy. I was ready as I ever will be...only time stood in the way. Could i survive Tom's darkness till then?

“ Earth to Granger”
I’m snapped from my thoughts when I see Draco and Blaise standing above me, I was by the Black Lake enjoying the warmed summer waters and sunlight. I felt stronger when the sun shone on me, my golden swirls would glisten with renewed energy and I felt simply alive.
“ Hello gentlemen, I didn’t know you two would be coming to Hogwarts?”, I pat the grassy ground beside me and both men sit on both sides of me. Draco ruffles my curly hair and I smack his hand playfully as he chuckles before removing his expensive hide boots and submerging his own feet into the cooling waters. Blaise stares at me with dark eyes as he removes his robes in silence.
“We have a Death Eaters meeting later tonight and decided to use the excuse to see how you were faring…I can't believe you're marrying that monster Granger, although I’m sure you don’t have a choice. You do understand that this will make your return from Tír na nÓg even slimmer?” Draco says before handing me his silver flask of Fire Whiskey, I gratefully accept and drink deeply before coughing at the bitter warming effect.
“ I know Draco, I really don’t want to talk about that right now, it seems all everyone wants to talk about is our damaged marriage.” , I say as I pass the flask to Zabini, he declines before patting my back due to my sputtering.
“Yes well it's not every century that a Dark Lord marries one of his enemies¸ listen, Granger, you have to add us to your very slim list of guest allowed to view your marriage…Zabini and I have decided to go with you to Tír na nÓg. We will not allow you to stay in those lands with Riddle and the bunch of idiots you have waiting for you…I mean you do need some stimulating conversation and we could use the adventure I presume.” , Draco says while taking back his flask. I stare in shock at their decision, I glance at Blaise who nods in agreement.
“ No…I cannot guarantee that you two will be able to ever come back here and who knows how strong this change will make Riddle. I already have Harry and the rest to worry about.”, I grab both of their hands with compassion. I could not allow them to throw their lives away for me… I was already ruined.
“ Hermione it's already been settled between us, we are going and there's really nothing you can say that will change our minds, besides you are the brightest witch of the era, you will figure out a way… now if you will excuse me”, Draco stands at these words and begins to strip down to his black boxers. I blush slightly at his heavily toned body and fine silver hair smattered near his navel. Draco notices my glance and smirks haughtily before jumping into the lake with a splash. I giggle as we watch Draco swim lazily in the shimmery waters.
“Hermione”, Blaise finally says and I stare into his mysterious brown eyes in question. I hold my breath as I await our long overdue conversation.
“ Blaise…I’m in a very difficult position here…there's no way I could ever think about my future when I have to figure out a way to stop our master…”, I murmur before shivering at his stilled gaze. He slowly traces the swirls leading from my arm all the way to my clavicle before finally replying.
“ I don’t care about Riddle…or Potter… or even my best mate Malfoy. I’ve wanted you years before any of them even noticed your brilliant beauty. I will go with you to Tír na nÓg and I will figure out a way to get us all back here. I will make you see that we would be great together. I wouldn’t constrict you or that mind of yours from anything. We could change this world, Hermione…for the better.” Blaise says stoically before grabbing a loose curl and pulling it before releasing it free.
“ Blaise you have been a solace to me this past year, Malfoy as well… but I’m not the same…I fear as the months past I'm growing…darker…as Riddle’s magic is seeping into my own and distorting my very core. I do not know how I will be after this year and then the final binding…I’m scared that I’m losing myself. I couldn’t possibly expect you to deal with that. I ...love him, Blaise.”, tears begin to form beneath my golden eyes as I try to control my emotions. Blaise stares softly at my form before sighing and handing me a velvet handkerchief. I accept with a soft thank you.
“ Hermione I understand that you may love him, you two share one essence and I’m almost certain that's difficult to deal with, however, I’m a Slytherin for a reason, I’m persistent and will try to make you see our union will only benefit us greatly little lioness.” , he grabs my hand before kissing it softly. “ Hermione there is simply no way your beautiful soul will ever be evil, you are the embodiment of grace and compassion”
“ Thank you, Blaise…you guys have kept me sound. I can't imagine having been able to do any of this without the two of you.” I smile through my glittering tears. They fall to the grass and baby breath appear, Blaise stares at the flowers before plucking one and putting it into his pocket. He then brings out a gold wrapped gift.
“ Your birthday is in a few weeks, however, I will be in Italy handling business so I thought today would be opportune to give you this. Happy birthday little lioness”, he hands the gift over as he calculably observes my response.
“ Oh Blaise you didn’t have too”, I gasp before grabbing the gift and opening it up.
He has given me a crystal vial full of swirling white fog. The vial glittered in the sunlight beautifully.
“ Blaise, are these your memories?” , I ask in wonder, he was so mysterious. Blaise nods solemnly.
“ They are every memory I have of you Hermione, from the very first day I saw you reading in Flourish and Blotts…I was hoping they would show you that my feelings are genuine…they always have been lioness”, Blaise says sweetly and my stomach clenches at the unpredictable situation I was in.
“ Blaise…I don’t know what to say…you are mysterious yet sweet…thank-” , I’m not able to finish my thanks, however, because Draco swims up to us and I know Zabini would not want to discuss his vulnerability in front of an audience. I smile sweetly before willing the vial to my library.
“ Granger give me a hand will you?” says Draco with a sly smile on his aristocratic face. I roll my eyes and grab his hand. He chuckles before pulling me into the lake’s cold waters.
“Draco you prat!” I sputter before laughing with glee, I splash him and he drives under the waters with a huge grin. Blaise rolls his eyes at our immaturity.
“Honestly, you two, we could be spending this time doing more important things you know?” says the ever serious Zabini.
Draco stares at me with raised eyebrows and I chuckle before moving my left hand and shifting the grass forward which pushes a startled Blaise into the waters with us. Draco and I laugh at his expression upon surfacing. Zabini was quite shocked and angry at the act of treason but instantly smiles when he views my peals of laughter.
“ Oh, its war now Granger.”, says Blaise as he waves his wand and throws us several feet into the air, we land into the waters with a gleeful scream.

There we spend the rest of the day, having a water bottle of epic proportions. Afterward, we enjoy a lunch of sandwiches and biscuits. I wish I could freeze this moment forever, free of choices needed to be made, free of worry…just carefree fun.
Before long a soaked Draco and Blaise excuse themselves for the meeting with Tom and the rest of the death eaters. I give them quick hugs, thanking them for changing my sour mood before appearing to my library in Tom’s home.

There I instantly call forth a pensive and view Zabini’s gift. Blaise wasn’t kidding when he said he’s liked me for a long time. Every one of his memories showed me in a beautiful light, they were of me at school answering questions with fervor, of me in the Great Hall during meals laughing with my Gryffindor friends. Passing glimpses of me in the library or walking in the hallways to class. They always showed me with my hair wild and my magic alive, as of this was how he viewed me. It's was beautiful and I was almost certain I would have dated him during our school days if I’ve known his true feelings. Imagine that, a Slytherin and Gryffindor dating. I knew that time for us passed years ago however, I was Riddle’s whether I wanted to be or not.

The rest of the year and a half was riddled with repetition. My birthday was celebrated quietly with Tom upon my request, he surprised me with a week-long trip to southern France where we spent the entirety of it making love, arguing, and discussing magical theories.
Riddle's birthday passed as well and I surprised him with a beautiful ball that Narcissa Malfoy helped my arrange. All the wizarding world’s most important attended and it was a blast. Tom greatly appreciated the gesture although he told me it was utterly unnecessary.
During this past year Riddle’s reign has stretched indefinitely, he now had control of practically all the world. There was no one who dared stop his continued plight. My time was spent between the boarding school, training with Tom, hanging with Draco and Blaise, the latter was still adamant about our courting, and writing to Harry and the rest. They were growing restless in my father’s lands yet not much could be done about that. I grew stronger as the months pass, I hardly needed my wand since I could now nonverbally spell forth anything desired.

Before long December 29^th approached and I was jittery.
Two days and the blood moon would be here.
Two days and I would be married to Tom…
Two days and I would betray him…binding us to desolate lands.
I simply could not back down now.
The world fucking world was in peril.
