Chapter II
“What has you do giddy today Draco?” Blaise asked him as they rode in a carriage to the castle.
“For one I am finally returning home. Three years from Ellington is far to long a time. And for another I am hoping to see Chloe, and hoping that she still hasn't married another.”
“Drake...I...Maybe...”
“What the hell are you trying to say Blaise. I have never known you to stutter.”
“I probably should have told you when heard about it two years ago but your grandfather thought it best if you just focused on your studies while we were away.”
“She’s married isn’t she?” Draco asked sadly.
“No-”
“Than what is the problem?”
“She’s changed Draco.”
“Of course she has it has been three years since we have last spoken.”
“That’s not what I mean Draco. Her succubus nature has come out full force since we left her Draco. And some of her companions you may not like to much.”
“That can’t be right, she is barely eighteen. And you say this has been going on for two years.”
“I know how it sounds Draco but it’s the truth.”
“But that isn’t all, is it Blaise?”
“No. She has a kid Draco.”
Draco felt like the air had been knocked out of him. Succubus can only have children with one person, and that person was their mates.
“She’s mated.”
“It would seem so, but who ever her mate is isn’t with her Draco or she wouldn't be sleeping with have the men in court.”
“He abandon her?!” Draco asked outraged.
“I don't know, but if I had to guess I would say yes he has.”
“Has anyone said who he was?”
“She hasn't said. But Draco, rumors say the little boy looks like a Malfoy.”
“A Malfoy?” Draco asked breathlessly.
“Yes.”
“Which one of my cousins has she been with?”
“Your cousins I have been told do not touch her because one they are all married or far to young. And the ones your age know how you feel about her. They wouldn't dare touch her Draco.”
“Uncles?”
“I don't know. I haven't spoken to any of your uncles. Only spoken to some of your cousins since they were allowed to visit us during your time with your grandfather.”
“So all of you knew and kept it from me.” Draco said coldly.
“We were forbidden from telling you. The only reason I am telling you now is so you don't get your feelings hurt when we get back to court.”
“Will she be there?”
“Most likely. She is after all Lady Harion. Along with her brothers she holds a lot of sway in court, even if some of the wives do not like her for the fact that she slept with their husbands.”
“I can not blame her for her actions. She had no way of knowing how I felt about her. And although painful it would be nice to see her again.” Draco told Blaise as the carriage begun to slow to a halt. He only just realized they had returned to court.
“I am sorry Draco.”
“Don't be Blaise. You were only doing what is asked of you.”
“If her mate has abandon her Draco, maybe you still have a chance to be with her.”
“Maybe. But if and when I find mine that would break her Blaise that is not something I wish to do.”
“For us vampires to find our mates is not easy Draco. Sometimes they are right there in front of us and we never know it is them until that right moment. And for some vampires that day never comes Draco.”
“For some. And honestly, I have never thought of having anyone but Chloe. If I can’t have her I don't want anyone else.”
“Maybe it is time to, start thinking about other people.”
“Perhaps.” Draco said when the doors to the Carriage opened.
As Draco and Blaise exited the carriage they noticed all of Draco’s family standing and waiting at the top of the steps. In the center of them among the hoards of Draco’s cousins was his father and his father’s new wife that he had only met once after their wedding, Roslyn.
Though Draco would admit the woman was beautiful she paled in comparison to his mother. But he would never think anyone good enough for his father but his mother. He had never seen his father so with drawn as he was when his mother died. He knew for his father that he and his mother was his father’s whole heart. And when he lost her he lost a part of himself. A part that he would never get back
“Glad to have you home Draco.” the king said as he pulled Draco into a tight embrace. “We have much to discuss my son.”
“I look forward to it father.” Draco told him before he moved on to greet the rest of his family.
Once he had been welcomed in but his family they moved inside of the castle towards the ballroom. Draco finally felt the pressure lift off his chest that had been there for the last three years. Be barely notice it was still there till he walked into the ballroom. Before he could contemplate the disappearance of it he was surrounded by his friends: Lord Theodore Notts, Lady Daphne Greengrass and her sister Astoria and Seamus Finnegan. He hadn't seen any of them since he left three years ago. He noticed all but one was missing.
“Great to know that you like to see us too Draco.” Daphne said teasingly. When she noticed the way his eyes were darting all over the room.
“Sorry Daph” Draco said sheepishly.
“She is here Draco. Don't you worry, we made sure to scare all of her would be suitors away.” Theo said to him.
“Including her mate?” Draco asked incredulously.
“What, no Draco. Don't-”
“Hush Theo.” a voice that Draco had not heard in three years said from behind them. It was the only voice he wanted to hear this day. “It is good to see you again Prince Draco.” she said with a slight curtsy when he turned to greet her.
“Must you be so formal with me Lady Harion. I didn't think that three years of absence would require such formalities.”
“Usually formalities would not be permitted my Prince, but when I have not heard anything from you in three years one would think you have cut them out of your life.” Chloe snipped.
“The same could be said about you Lady Harion.”
“I wrote for a year, and never had a reply. My owl Tiberius returned all my letters unanswered. And there is not a place that bird can not fly. I do so recall you telling me that. Since he was your gift to me.”
Now Draco looked confused, “I never got any letters from you Coe.”
“So my letters were the only ones you did not get. I even sent a letter with Theo’s”
“I sent them with mine, but I never received a reply for your letters. I even sent one asking why you haven't replied to Chloe. I think we all did. Did you not get those letters?” Theo asked just as confused as the rest of them
“No, I did not.”
“Oh.” Chloe said her voice filled with hurt.
“Do you still have your letters? I would still like to read them.”
“I will get them to you when I can. But I have other topics of greater importance to talk to you about. I would wait till you had a chance to enjoy your time back. But I fear others may talk about it before I have a time to tell you.”
“To tell me what?” Draco asked as one of the servants came up to Chloe.
“Lady Harion, you have been asked to leave madam.” the servant told her nervously.
“Excuse me?” Chloe asked aghast.
“The queen does not wish you here madam.”
“How dare she!” Draco said outraged at the nerve of his father’s new wife.
“No, it is alright Draco. She has her reasons. Though for her to do with out causing a scene is somewhat of a reprieve. I will take my leave. But I ask to speak with you before I do.”
“I am sure we can talk in the drawing room.” Draco said as he begun to lead her out of the ballroom.
“Thank you Draco.” Chloe told him when he closed the door to the Drawing room.
“What is it that you need to talk to me about.”
“The last three years, but I know I dot have time enough for that. I really wish this could wait so you would have time enjoy your party but I know how the loose lips are around court.”
“Are you talking about to the fact that you have a son and that your mate has abandon you, and left you to embrace your succubus nature on your own?”
“That would be part, but Draco, do you truly not know?” Chloe asked perplexed.
“Dante is a Malfoy.”
“Yes that I have heard. Which one of my family members has abandon you so I may have nothing to do with them.”
“Draco you are Dante’s father. Why do you think I named him Dante. You use to tell me that is the name you wanted for your first born.”
Draco set there a moment before Chloe’s words sunk in. Before he shot up out of his seat startling Chloe. “What are you playing at Chloe? I would have never touched you in a way knowing I was going to leave you behind for three years and with out marrying you first.”
“You don't remember.” she said standing shakily from her seat across from where he was standing over her.
“Don't remember what?”
“The night of your eighteenth birthday.”
“That night is a blur for me.”
“You were too drunk to remember. I should have known.” Chloe said breathlessly as she walked away from him towards the window. “I always wondered why you were so indifferent towards me the next day. Well not indifferent but like nothing had changed, like we were still best friends.”
“We are still best friends.”
“But we are so much more than that now. You just don't remember.”
“I am your mate.”
“Yes,”
“And I abandon you and caused you to become a harlot.”
“You didn't abandon me. But being a harlot is in my nature. I am a creature driven on pure sexual instincts. Being a harlot is one of the reasons the queen did want me at your party and asked me to leave.”
“You have been with father.”
“Never by choice Draco. I haven't been with any of these men by choice.”
“But being with father took the edge away far greater than the other men.” Draco said to her as he walked towards her.
“He did. But I still wish I could have fought it. But no matter what they teach you at Hogwarts it doesn’t help when your nature has beaten you into submission. I understand if you do not wish to associate with me. But I do ask that you be a participant in Dante’s life.”
“I want to be more than a participant in Dante’s life Chloe. I want to be your husband.”
“I am afraid that is not going to happen. I am destined to have a fate similar of my mother’s.”
“What are you talking about?”
“Draco, you can not marry a succubus. You are a Prince, you are to marry another vampire.”
“You are part vampire, so I still have a chance of marrying you.”
“I highly doubt it. I may be half vampire but the other half of me is Succubus. We are lucky Dante has taken after you and not me or he would have been a incubus like my uncle.”
“I am sure father would give me his blessing to marry you.”
“But I doubt my brother would give you his. He think you used and abandon me. Aden is not going to be easily won over by your charms.”
“We will have to see about that.” Draco said as he pulled her close to him. “I am sorry that I left you. I wish I could remember though.”
“So do I Draco.” Chloe said holding on to him a bit longer before pulling away. “I have better get home to Dante and out of the castle before the queen has a fit.”
“Can I come over tomorrow to see him.”
“Yes. I am staying at my brother’s estate for another week before I leave for Ravenclaw Hall.”
“Your mother’s Estate?”
“Yes.”
“Why not stay here?”
“I can’t stay in the snake pit forever Draco. I rather like being in my eagles nest.”
“I would have thought you like your father’s lion’s den.”
“WHat I wouldn't give to stay in the lions den. But Lady Potter still holds some of the titles to Gryffindor even if my brothers have her on a tight leash.”
“Till tomorrow than my Lady Harion.”
“Till tomorrow my Prince Draco.”
