A/N: Ok so I�m going
to pick up speed soon, I promise. I want to get through this �week� of Hermione
transitioning from being an 18 year old wife to a 19 year old pureblood,
attempting to keep herself alive. However she hasn�t turned 19 yet, so her
makeover hasn�t happened yet darlings ;). At any rate, once I�ve gotten through
this, we�ll be skipping through practically months � don�t worry I swear it
will all make sense in the end. At any rate, thanks to the dears who have
written reviews, you make it so much easier for me to pound away at my brain,
hoping words come out! And on with the show�

Chapter 4:

Before: �Bella � your
eyes are glinting, what are you thinking my love?�

Bella tapped her nose and smirked at her husband, �I wonder
how my nephew likes Japan��

Rodolphus� eyebrows knit together, �Interesting idea my
dear, I suppose you�ll take advantage and ask?�

�Of course.� She glared at him for
even asking, �and this way, even if the war continues
until then, she�ll be well trained and ready to fight.�

�I like the plot. Go post your letter and I�ll speak to Veri
about the Dark Lord,� and with that Rodolphus stalked into the room.

He snorted as he saw his daughter sprawled out on the bed,
her petite form spread eagle and her bush of hair tangled into a nest. He
sighed and wondered why his wife couldn't have made the glamour at least a bit
more palatable; probably a slight revenge for having seduced the French witch
in the first place. But really! What
could I have done?! �He wanted it and I
had to coerce the family to give me gold - at least I told Bella of it
beforehand �Merlin I would have been castrated otherwise. And she got that
silly Pettigrew to play with anyways. Thank gods, He has better things to do
than destroy my marriage now. With that last thought, he made his way over
to the bed and began poking his daughter.

�Veri � Veri ... VERI! Wake up love.� He chuckled as she
shot up, wand in hand.

�Merlin, Daddy! Was that really necessary?� She rubbed the
sleep out of her eyes and mock-glared at him, wondering why on earth he was in
her room when there was a meeting going on.

�Of course it wasn�t.� His rather handsome, but
Azkaban-sunken features smirked. Switching to a more serious tone, he remarked,
�I do have a question while you�re up ��

Hermione�s became a bit wary at the look in his eyes, as
though he regretted it but was going to do it anyways, �Daddy ��

�I know it isn�t an opportune time, but you have to avoid a
potentially worse meeting!�

�Ugh, fine! I still don�t like it though, it just feels like
a betrayal of the worst kind,� she pouted.

�Darling, think of it as a power play; you are clearly a
useful commodity and Potter mishandled that. You aren�t taking secrets to Him,
but meeting with Him and showing Potter how easy it could be to lose you if he
isn�t careful.� Which he wasn�t, the
thickhead. Rodolphus stroked her hair softly, letting her think the idea
over. �The Dark Lord won�t attack you in front of everyone; He�s learned that
he can�t force loyalty or action, as in the case of Draco � He will want to
persuade you. Your mother and I will not make the decision for you, but know
that we would enjoy having you with us.�

Hermione sighed; this was not something she wanted to think
of on top of all the rest. �We could do it the night of my birthday � I mean it's
a valid reason to have a party here, and I will have changed in appearance, so
many won�t recognize me, which would work in our favor.�

�That, my dear, is rather Slytherin
of you! I love it. We�ll tell your mother, and probably Giselle, since they
will want to outfit you in something grand.� He grinned at her scrunched up
face, and commented, �We�re all curious as to who you will resemble, you were
so young when we cast that spell.� With that he kissed her forehead and headed
towards the door.

�Daddy � thank you. For everything. I wish I�d been able to grow up with you and
Mum. Not that I didn�t love the Lorraines � I do, but they just
weren�t � well, parents! And while politics isn�t something I want to get into,
I�m glad we have the chance now, to at least get to know each other.� She
smiled at him, the irony of actually wanting Death Eaters as parents not lost
on her.

He dipped his head, �We wish it too, it eats at your mother
everyday, but if we hadn�t done what we did, the Longbottoms
would have taken you away or even killed you. So thank Merlin for Celeste�s
parents, which reminds me, do you prefer Hermione or
Veri now?�

Hermione contemplated, �I think Veri in general, since it
was from my birth mum; but perhaps Hermione will suffice until I�ve changed, at
least for everyone else.� She winked at him as he stifled a large grin and
walked out the door.

Walking away he marveled at the way he had changed from the
hardened maniac and public menace, to a practically drooling little puppy dog
in just the few months that he had spent with his daughter. Perhaps he would go
torture some miscreant � yes,
that will do nicely �

Hermione walked over to her vanity and began an attempt to
tame her locks before heading over to the twins. After what could only be
termed a valiant effort, she went and changed into comfortable jeans, t-shirt
and trainers. While straightening up from grabbing her overnight bag, she heard
the door squeak in opening. She whirled around quickly; her wand trained on the
entry way, and promptly dropped the bag with a loud gasp �

A/N: I know, I know, shoot me (really, please don�t!) I promise I�ll have a new chappie up in a few hours. I have to go make dinner and I
wanted to leave a little snack for you to munch on. See � I�m hungry, anyways loves to all and review your little hearts out if you would!
