They both lay in complete silence for the rest of that night. Over the coming days and weeks, Lucius showered Asphyxia with gifts to earn her forgiveness, although not a single one of them changed the silent wall that she had put up. Asphyxia's stubborn nature refused to let her forgive him so easily and she was going to make him realise she was serious about how upset he made her.

By the time eight weeks had past, Lucius had had enough. He was sick of catering to her every whim and getting nowhere so he devised a plan that he knew would win his wife's heart all over again. When everything was in place he went to the bedroom and gently knocked on the door. Asphyxia ignored him.

'My dear i have a surprise for you, will you come and see what it is?' There was no answer.

He walked over to her and forcefully took her hand leading her out of the room and across the corridor to a door that she had never seen before.

'Lucius if none of the other gifts worked i highly doubt...' before she could finish her sentence he opened the door to reveal a brand new nursery.

“Our child is due to be born in a few weeks and I wanted to have everything ready in time.”

Asphyxia wrapped her arms around her husband and sighed. How on earth was she supposed to stay angry with Lucius when he had gone to so much effort for their child?

Lucius stood there awaiting her response. If this wasn't going to make her happy with him again, he would just have to leave her and start again.

He wasn't one to give up easily, but even a man of his stature had limits to his patience, and his was wearing dangerously thin.

As lucius made his way to his study, leaving his wife in the nursery of their unborn child. Once there he locked the door and greeted his guest.

“Well Naylor, it seems we now have time to talk now that my wife has been sufficently groveled to.”

Mortimer Naylor was not a man to be taken lightly and he feared that Lucius had recently been doing so. Their dealings had been slowed down due to Asphyxia's foul mood.

“Are you sure that she knows nothing of this?” Mortimer asked solemnly.

Lucius gently smiled as he poured a drink for the pair of them.

“She is completely unaware of anything. That is the way it shall stay. If she finds out what we have agreed, i fear the child will end up dead.”

Mortimer nodded graciously as he uttered his reply. “But the deal still stands, once the child is born, it will be taken to the appropriate location, examined and it will then be seen as to whether it is worthy of such a task that has befallen it.”

Lucius and Mortimer had been scheming since the moment he found out that he was to have another child. The deal that he had brokered, he had not done with Draco, there was no need. He knew the childs true origins and was sure of the family background that he was mixing with; was up to the Malfoy standards. With Asphyxia as the mother, he was unsure. Ever since Madame Wick had brought it up several months earlier, he had been researching into the woman whom he had fallen for. Some interesting things had come to light. Asphyxia's family had not simply fled to Romania, they had returned home. For centuries, the Niklaus family had been one of the most powerful wizarding families in the country, until one night they decided to up sticks and leave for England. Asphyxia was only six months old when they arrived at their home in London, so to her this was the only home she had ever known. No one in her family ever told her why they had fled Romania, she had grown up to believe she was born in England. The name Niklaus had been buried the moment they had left Romanian soil. Although since their return, they had begun to reconnect their roots and rebuild bridges that they had since burnt. Lucius had found a lot of information that Asphyxia either had neglected to tell him, or had not known. He was simply waiting till the right moment to divulge it to her. And he was starting to think that the time was approaching fast. Mortimer and Lucius spoke of these indesrcetions well into the night, until the gilmmer of morning crept through the velvet curtains.

***

Asphyxia awoke to a sharp kick to her ribs. “For crying out loud do you have to wake me up like that every morning little one?” She said stroking her stomach. There was only a week left until she would be hopefully holding her son or daughter in her arms. Nothing could have made her smile any more. But something was about to make her smile less. As she stood to find Lucius and join him for breakfast when she felt a strange cramp, looked down and saw that her waters had broken. She cried out and was found by a grouchy house elf who muttered under his breath about how rude to him she was being. Once Lucius had been notified of his impending fatherhood, he said goodbye to Mortimer and went straight to Asphyxia's side, not forgetting to tell the house elf to summon Madame Wick at once. For the next thirty four hours, Asphyxia's screams echoed round Malfoy Manor until at thirteen minutes past midnight the cries of a baby girl were heard. Once Asphyxia had been checked over and had fallen asleep, Lucius took Madame Wick aside and gave her the young child.

“Take her to Mortimer, he will know what to do once you get there.”

Madame Wick was at a loss for words. What did Lucius mean? She had learnt not to question him long ago, but to take the newborn child to someone with whom she knew he had dodgy dealings with did not sit right with her. But she did it all the same, even if it was with a few choice words for Mr Malfoy once he was out of earshot.

Once Mortimer was in possesion of the child who was not yet named, he took out his wand and pointed it at Madame Wick. “Many thanks for bringing her here, but now you will be of no use. Avada Kedavra.”

Madame Wick fell to the ground as Mortimer Disapparated with the child in his arms. It would not be until Lucius went to join him at the meeting point would he realise he had been double crossed. His newborn baby daughter had been kidnapped.

“Mortimer?” Lucius called out into the empty room. The sound of his voice echoed off the walls and hit him like a thousand shards of shatter ice.

As he fell to his knees, anger and adrenaline coursed through his veins.

“MORTIMER!” he screamed. Lucius knew there was no way he could know where his little girl was or where he could even begin to look for her. She didn't even have a name yet. She was a poor defenceless newborn who needed her parents to look after her. Lucius gathered his composure and Disapparated back to Malfoy Manor. Throwing his cloak onto his desk, he went to his bed chamber and saw his wife, sleeping. Just as beautiful and scary as she had ever been, Lucius woke his beloved to tell her the news.

“Asphyxia? Wake up.”

As she stirred, her eyes lit up at the sight of him sitting on the edge of the bed, holding her hand.

With a breathless whisper she greeted him, but before he could reply she read him like an open book.

“Whats happened? You look like you have had a run in with a Dementor.”

Lucius felt the little colour he had left drain from his face.

“Our daughter has...” He felt a lump come to his throat. “She has been taken. I don't know where she is, and i am afraid she is in danger. I have been double crossed.”

Asphyxia mustered the strength to slap Lucius and utter some very grotesque words to him. As she climbed out of bed Lucius explained to her that it was an aquantence of his that had taken her. Asphyxia grabbed the nearest clothes she could find, grabbed hold of her wand, took hold of Lucius' arm and Apparated.

They arrived in a dark and dingey alley on the outskirts of London. It was not somewhere that dignified and those worried about their reputation dared to venture. The area was littered with dark cloaked strange beings that filled the air with tension. Asphyxia dragged Lucius down the alley and into an apartment at the far end. The door slammed shut behind them and a deep voice came from the depths of the darkness.

“Welcome back dear Lenuta. It has been a long time indeed.”

“You dare to utter that name in my presence! She is dead, buried and i will not be resurrecting her anytime soon. If you value your life you will answer mine and my husbands questions,” she snarled.

“My my, the Niklaus fire does run in your veins doesnt it Lenuta? And for your information that is the name you were born with and i will honour your mother and fathers choice, regardless of what you have chosen to call yourself now. Do i make myself clear?” Emerging from the shadows, Stefan stood seven foot tall and as stocky as he had been when he was in his twenties. But now at the ripe age of ninety seven, he was not the boystrous bodyguard he once had been for her family.

“Fine have things your way. Stefan, someone has kidnapped my newborn baby girl and we need your help to find her. Lucius tell him everything you know about this Mortimer and if you miss any details neither i nor him will neglect to hurt you.”

For the next few hours Lucius gave every single detail that he knew about where Mortimer could be, who he was and what they had discussed. Asphyxia was in tears as she listened to the wretched plan that her husband had devised behind her back. How could he do such a thing if he loved her? She heard Lucius' voice was quiverring with emotion by the time he finished explaining every detail he knew.

Stefan sat there intently listening to every word. But when Lucius had finish, he simply stood up took a quill and parchment, scribbled something onto it and sent it away with his owl.

“What are you doing Stefan?” She asked.

“I have written to a contact of mine, he should get back to me in a few hours. Lenuta do not panic. From what your husband has told me, i think this Mortimer shall not harm your daughter. He obviously has reason for taking her and that will become clear soon. For now, take some time and clear your thoughts. You will be no use to your daughter in the state your in now.”

Lucius took Asphyxia's hand. As tears rolled down her face, he did his best to comfort her. It was no use however. She was too distraught to be comforted.

“Lucius, what if we never find her? What if she is dead? How could you have dealings with such a horrible, vile... actually don't answer that. I dont want to know. But you will tell me the truth, every single detail. I know you lied to Stefan, but if you value our marriage you will not lie to me!”

He sighed before he started to explain. “When i first found out about our child, i got into contact with Mortimer. I had doubts about your blood purity, which by proxy would mean that the child was not that of a prophecy told long ago. Therefore it was his job to take the child to be tested. I never in a million years thought he would steal her. I knew he was interested in what this prophecy is, but i thought i had subdued his intrest.”

Asphyxia listened to all Lucius had to say before she contemplated her reply.

“Prophecy? You mean to tell me our baby has been abducted because of some fucking prophecy? I thought after the ritualistic bollocks you put me through, all the lies and the scheming, that you could sink no lower. Well more fool me because i was wrong! So come, tell me, what is so special about this prophecy that you had to endanger the life of Alexa? Yes i have named our daughter and no you don't get any say in the matter.”

Lucius nodded. “I will tell you, but on one condition. If she is the child of the Malfoy prophecy. You will not interfere with her destiny or her training?”

Asphyxia looked confused and then laughed. “You make it sound like she will be the next Voldemort! Or even worse, the next Harry potter?”

Lucius shook his head. “It is not a prophecy of that type, i'm sure. But until she is old enough to hold the prophecy in her hand we will not know it's exact nature. But it has been passed down for generations of my family that this child will have immense power and be feared by few but control many.”

“And is that why Mortimer wants her? He wishes to have that sort of power under his control? Lucius we have to find her!” Asphyxia broke down as Stefan came back into the room.

“Someone whom i have as a contact has caught wind of a new born in the hands of someone who he knows she does not belong. He has given me an approximate location, and number of people protecting the child. We will gather some of your families connections and then we will get back your daughter.”

Lucius nodded. “But we will also use some of my connections.”

“NO! We cannot trust any one whom you have had contact with. They may be on Mortimers payroll and warn him of our plan. It is your fault that this has happened, it is best you leave everything to Lenuta, myself and people whom her family trust. It is with deepest regret that i ask you to stay here. Do not go back to your Manor, do not move from this room. If you do, my friends have been instructed to contain you. Is that understood?” Stefan had such a tone, lucius dare not reply in his usual snide manner.

“If i must for the safety of my child, then i will. But if you should fail do not think i will let you get away with it. I will take my anger out on you. That is a promise,” Lucius growled.
