Day5:
Don't say you need me when
You're leaving, you leave again
I'm stronger than all my men
Except for you

Veronika headed with Lucius to the downtown, as she wanted to show him the beautiful place and buy some muggles vodka.

"HI, VENNY" the girl noticed Paul, a close friend of her ex, walking over to them, as she gave him a small wave.

"Hey, paulie. How are you?"

"I'm good, it's been a while since I last saw you!"

"Yes! And what are you doing in Schwerin anyway?"

"Till invited Chris and I to pass summer with them since they are a thing now."

"Poor berliners, look at your skin, Paulchen you are probably gonna get a sunburn"

"See! My poor beautiful skin!"

"Stop whining and now would you like to come to the castle, let's drink a couple of beers and swim"

"What about your father? Wer ist dieser Mann?"

"Father will be back later, he actually likes you so don't worry and this is Lucius Malfoy, our family's friend"

"Nice to meet you, Ich heiße Paul" the short man said, offering to shake the wizard's hand, who replied only with a cold smile.

"He doesn't understand German, Mr. Malfoy is from England"

"Oh, I got it"

"You know paulie... You grow more handsome by the years" Veronika beamed, voice deliberately lighter and sweeter in that tone she only ever use towards her puppies. Lucius's blue eyes narrowed as he watched her carefully, gritting his teeth and hissing when he saw Paul laugh, cheeks tinging pink as he rubbed the back of his neck awkwardly. It was no secret the german boy has always held a little crush on her.

"So did you, Venny"

"Now let's go, I got to buy some stuff then we leave" As they walked, a conversation grow between the two and Lucius seemed to be invisible to her as she didn't look at him even for one time. He almost lose it, his fists curling as he watched her splay her hand against Paul's, giggling at the size difference then he came to stand beside him, a smile stretching across his lips.

"So are you a werewolf, Paul?"

"Yes, I am. We are not very liked by wizards I know."

"Yes, that's true. I don't know how Richard can let his daughter be friends with... beasts"

Before Paul could respond, Veronika grabbed the blond man  away, she knew Paul's reply will start a fight between them.

"Can you stop being rude, Lucius ?! He is my friend"

"As I see more than a friend"

"What? Are you jealous?" She asked with curiosity.

"Yes, I am... You’re mine, Veronika" He said, his cupping her cheek "I'm gonna make sure you don’t forget that."

"Well, Mr. Malfoy. Let me remember you that I am not yours and I'm free to do whatever I want." She said, face totally serious which took the complete shock of Lucius, he just started with wide open eyed cannot shut like he was in total paralysis. She left, walking with Paul to sit in the public garden, he was glowering at them, Veronika's arm around his waist and his head leaning on her shoulder as they spoke to some kid.

"She is a deadly flower... Pretty but her beauty is a disease that will torture you slowly" A voice spoke, and Lucius turned to see who it was, Till stood next to him, not making any eye contact. "I knew you love her since that night we met... I could smell love and see it even behind dead eyes..."

"I don't love her,"

"Right now the only thing more apparent that you love her would be a tattoo on your forehead"

"Why do you even care?"

"Because, If you try to break her heart, I'll happily break your neck. Veronika been in enough sadness"

"Sadness?"

"You obviously know nothing about her"

As they returned to the castle, Paul of course being with them since the girl invited him. Lucius didn't say anything just went straight to the library letting the two of them alone, he took a spit from the glass of wine. He wasn’t the type to get jealous easily or behave pettily, he kept telling himself that Veronika felt nothing for that man even if it was obvious she did... Moans and growls played between his ears, was it real or was he just hallucinating... He stood up, walking towards the door, then he stopped closing it again as he returned to his chair.

No, it is none of my business. She is free to sleep with whoever she wants.

Lucius kept repeating in his head, but he couldn't ignore his heartache, it physically hurt... He was jealous... A foreign feeling to him, suffocating and awful in a way that makes him want to scream. But he had to deal with himself, after all, he had no control or right on her.

"Mr. Malfoy, Ms. Von Schirach is asking to you in the living room"
The Elf informed. Lucius didn't want to face her, he could easily ignore her call but something in him told him that he should go.
Veronika sat at the coach, a wide smile on her, eyes lazily watching Paul playing his electric guitar and jumping like he was a teen, sometimes she forget that man was thirty one, a boyish face, short blond hair and green-blue eyes.

"Oh Lucius, come sit with us. Listen to this amazing playing. C'mon Heiko show him!"

"First of all, don't call me Heiko, and what do you want to play?"

"Okay, okay Mr. Paulie. Play us der Meister? Let show english people how skilled we are"
