Chapter 3
Two weeks after the meeting and he still could not get her scent out of his head. Her eyes continued to haunt him and he dreamed every night of her. Some of the dreams where sweet, others where very arousing. He had to take care of himself in the shower quite often in the past two weeks. He really had nothing to keep him busy this day and he knew it wasn't healthy to dwell on something you couldn't have so he decided to go to Diagon Alley for awhile. Maybe he could loose himself in the bookstore and find something to take her off his mind. If even for a little while.
An hour later he found himself in Flourish & Blotts and what he hoped would be an escape had turned out to be a reminder as he wondered if she would like this book or that one. Sighing he gave up and decided to go to the Leaky Cauldron and have a drink. He stopped in surprise. She was there. She sat at a table in the back nursing a butter beer. He couldn't resist sitting with her; so he got a drink at the bar and sat at her table, casting a wandless notice-me-not charm so no one would notice them together.
Hermione had been startled when he first sat down but then she smiled up at him. “Good afternoon Mr. Malfoy.” She said.
“Good afternoon Miss Granger,” Lucius replied. “I'm quiet surprised to find you here on your own outside headquarters.”
“Yes, I know I shouldn't be but I couldn't stand to be cooped up in that awful house with so many people any longer. So I snuck out.” Hermione tried to look repentant but instead merely looked mischievous.
Lucius found himself grinning at her and trying not to laugh. “Well far be it from me to make you stay in that awful house. I'm actually glad to see you here. It gives us a chance to continue our conversation that we started the other day.”
Lucius and Hermione spent a few hours that afternoon speaking on many different subjects and they met there several times more both enjoying their conversations. Every time they parted he would kiss her hand and every time she would gasp and blush. It was getting harder and harder for Lucius to not kiss her. The next time they met they where both a little quiet. Hermione suddenly looked at Lucius.
“Mr. Malfoy? Can I ask you something?”
“Of course Miss Granger. I think we know each other well enough for you to ask me anything.”
Hermione looked down at her hands and asked in a quiet voice. “What is this? What are we doing? I'm not saying I don't like it. I do. I just don't understand why I'm so drawn to you.”
Lucius smiled at her gently. He reached over and made her meet his eyes. “I know what you mean. I've been enjoying this too but your right. I think I know what is causing this feeling and you do deserve an explanation.” He glanced around, “But we can't do this here. Do you trust me enough to come to the Manor?”
“Of course I do.” she replied smiling at him.
He cast a glamore on both of them and then walked out of the Leaky Cauldron with her to the apparition point. He brought her to the Manor and to his study. She sat on the couch he indicated. He sits on the coffee table in front of her and pulls her hands into his. He looks down at their hands while he rubs the back of hers with his thumb. Now he is nervous. Clearing his throat and gathering his courage he looks up at her. “The night that Voldemort returned I was hit with a spell. I don't know what spell it was but it knocked me out. When I woke Mr. Potter was gone. Voldemort was in a towering rage. He tortured all of us that where there for hours.” Hermione loosened one hand and place it on his cheek. He could see the pain in her eyes. She was hurting for him. He covered her hand with his own and continued, “Once he released us I came home to this room, poured myself a drink, and layed down on the other couch over there. I woke later in great pain. I knew something was wrong just not what. I knew I had to get out of here so I jumped out that window. I rolled away from the house and suddenly transformed. Apparently I have dragon blood and the spell activated it. I transformed into a dragon. When I calmed down I transformed back to my human form. With a few tale tell signs.” He showed her the scales around his wrist. She gently touched them. Making him shiver. She looked at him in wonder. He gently caressed her face. He let her know about his research and about how he had to find his mate and why he had divorced his wife. He told her everything. Then he came to the most important part. “That night at the order meeting when you walked past me. I caught your scent. Your scent and your eyes haunted me for weeks before we saw each other again. I've been fighting myself since then. Mi .... Hermione. I realized that night that you where my mate. I know your too young and I know you probably have no feelings for me at all besides friendship but that is what this draw is. Why we feel so comfortable with each other. Know that I will never push you for anything your not willing to give or ready for.” Lucius looked into Hermione's eyes. He saw recognition and something else. He slowly leaned in giving her plenty of time to stop him if she didn't want this. She met him halfway. When their lips touched they both felt a charge go though them. They pulled back and looked at each other in shock.
“Wow” they said together.
He sat on the couch and pulled her into his lap. “You are going to have to be the one to decide where this goes and how fast Hermione. My instincts might push for things your not ready for and the last thing I want to do is hurt you.”
“I understand Lucius.” Hermione leaned in for another kiss. He met her lips hungrily with his own. They sat on the couch kissing for awhile. Then he just held her to him while they talked in soft tones. When it was time for her to leave he keyed her to the wards so that she could come here instead of the Cauldron. Then he gave her one more lingering kiss and then she was gone. Lucius went to the library and looked up something that seemed to be evading his memory. When he finally found it he covered his face. For Hermione to be his true mate she would also have to have dragon blood and after a certain amount of contact with him her blood would also be activated. Then her instincts would push them to claim each other too. He sighed. At least they wouldn't have worry about pregnancy since she wouldn't have her first heat till her blood had been activated for at least 5 years. He decided it was time to retire where he knew he would dream of her again.
