Chapter 3
Severus was asleep in his spot by Draco’s bed when his charge awoke with a bloodcurdling scream. This brought Lucius and Narcissa into the room, both rushing to the side of Draco’s bed. Lucius and Severus grasped Draco’s arms and legs, trying desperately to calm his thrashing, while Narcissa leant over him, splashing water on his face, trying to wake him up. All of a sudden, Draco shot up in bed, knocking the two men off of him and barely missing Narcissa’s face with his fist.
“Draco, dear? How are you feeling? Do you need anything?” Narcissa was frantically petting Draco’s sweaty hair, trying to ascertain whether her child was OK.
“Mother, what happened? Godfather, hello, why are you here?” Draco looked around at the other people in his room, obviously confused as to why they were surrounding his bed.
“What is the last thing you remember?” Lucius asked his son, hoping that he wouldn’t have to explain everything to Draco again.
“I remember you telling us about our true heritage, then coming back here to try and come to terms with it, then feeling a lot of pain, then nothing besides the pain until I woke up a minute ago.”
“You’ve been asleep for a week, son. THe pain you remember was your first transformation, the one that will allow your senses to begin to sharpen and allow you to find your mate. You will find that your hearing is slightly improved, but the biggest change is your sense of smell. You will be able to tell who a person is by simply smelling the air around them, and this is how you will find your mate.” Lucius was relieved that Draco remembered their conversation, but nervous as to the identity of his mate.
“Well, father, that’s all well and good, but I don’t want to find my mate so soon. I don’t wish to be married or bonded to another person for another few years, so that’s a moot point.”
“Now, Draco. Being bonded is a beautiful thing!” Narcissa exclaimed, stopping when Lucius shot her a look.
“While your mother is right, there is another pressing issue to consider. First off, when you find your mate, you will have the impulsive need to bond with her, no matter if you wish to or not. On the contrary, a refusal to mate with her will make that compulsion stronger. Secondly, and possibly more important, if you do not find your mate and bond with him or her by your 18th birthday, you will die.” Lucius’ hand subtly made its way to his cane that housed his wand, understanding that this news could force the newly transformed Veela into action, and he feared for the safety of everyone in the room if that were to happen.
“So you’re telling me that I am not only going to be bonded to the same person the rest of my life, a person that MIGHT NOT BE FEMALE, but if I don’t want to bond to this person because I find them hideous and detestable that I WILL DIE?”
“Draco, stop with the hysterics. It’s really not as bad as it seems. Your mother and I will help you get through it, and you will love your mate unconditionally, no matter the gender.” Lucius sighed, glad that he would not have to curse his son... at least now.
“But, father, how will I even find my mate in a year? What if they live in France, or America?”
“I do not believe that to be the case. I believe that you have already met your mate at Hogwarts, and we will begin trying to ascertain who this may be before the school year even starts, with the help of Severus, of course. He will also be watching you when you leave for school to make sure you do not do anything... brash while your mother and I are not there to watch.”
“Fine. How do I go about finding my mate then?” Draco asked, resigning himself to his fate of sniffing people to find his mate.
“I will send out invitations to your schoolmates for a party to celebrate your birthday next weekend. Until then, I will help you master your senses so nothing appears amiss. At the party, you will need to get close to each of the guests and see if any of them smell right to you.”
“And how will I know if they smell right?”
“Trust me, son, you will know. And when you find that person, it is imperative that you let myself, your mother, or Severus know so we can help control your urges that will try to control you.”
Draco sighed and laid back on his pillows. I still pray that it’s not Weasley.
