When American witch, Aria De La Cour, begins her new job at the Ministry of Magic in England, her mentor is none other than dashing and seductive ex-dark wizard, Lucius Malfoy. The connection and bond that they form transcends even the most powerful...
Aria and Lucius arrived at the end of a very long and majestic driveway. While the Mansion loomed grand and impressive in the distance, it gave off a more modern vibe, partly due to it being nearby the bustling city of London, unlike the grand Malfoy Manor which was very much more old-world and nestled in the glorious British countryside. Both mansions were very impressive but of course nothing could compare for the comfort Aria and Lucius felt at their own beautiful estate.

Hand and in hand, Aria and Lucius walked up the long drive to the front of the grand mansion. Some witches and wizards had opted to make an even grander entrance by hiring sleek muggle limousines which caused Aria and Lucius to roll their eyes and chuckle under their breaths as the gaudy vehicles drove passed the pair as they continued walking up the drive. Aria could see as they got closer hundreds of finely dressed witches and wizards arriving and making their way up the grand front steps and into the mansion as the party thrummed with energy and light from inside. It also couldn't be missed that there were a few dozen paparazzis snapping photos of the big event and of the notable members of the Wizarding Community arriving.
Upon seeing the snap and flash of the cameras, Lucius squeezed Aria's hand in his own and sighed out unhappily. Lucius detested the paparazzi; especially since one of the last times they had really crossed a line for Lucius was when he was at the hospital, still not knowing whether or not Aria was going to live or die from her poisoning. Lucius had almost ripped off the paparazzi's heads for sticking their noses into his own personal Hell to try and get their next big story.

Aria sighed out with Lucius. She wasn't too keen on the tabloid press either, especially when it came to her and Lucius' relationship. "Why are they here? Does the Minister know they are here? Surely he wouldn't allow them to crash his party like this and disturb the guests as they arrive..." she said.
"Oh he knows they are here....I wouldn't be surprised if he invited them himself!" scoffed Lucius. "Any excuse for him to look good and grand in the papers. And I am sure the guests don't mind either....only people who have truly been tortured by the papers and the tabloids would really mind...like myself..." he scowled.
Aria brought their connected hands up to her lips and gave him a kiss on the top of his gloved hand causing the distressed Wizard to smile down at her lovingly. They were close to the crowd of people now and Aria knew that they must grin and bear it to get into the party.
