Blood and Wine (Book 1)

Chapter 5

CASTLE DIMITRESCU, MARCH 11th

More than a Month had passed since (Y/N) had gone to Diagon Alley, bought his School Supplies and got his first taste of Magic and the Wizarding World, he had spent some time reading his new books, memorising the wand movements and formulas for Spells, as well as information from the History of Magic book he got from Melinda.

However... he was quite interested in the Potions book he purchased, learning about the various ingredients and methods of brewing, it was in a way similar to making Wine, but with varied effects other than just intoxication, as well as the book on Magical Beasts and where to find them.

He was currently sat in the Main Hall reading his copy of Magical Draughts and Potions, while Bela was sat in another chair reading a Horror Novel that she'd gotten from the Duke, a book called Salem's Lot, they were reading in the quiet when a Maid walked into the room from the Kitchen.

"E-Excuse me, Lord Dimitrescu, there seems to be a Letter for you, delivered by an Owl" the Maid said as she carefully approached the young man, before she offered him the Envelope, (Y/N) set a book mark before he put the book aside and reached up, taking the envelope from the Maid's hand.

"Thank you" (Y/N) said simply before he extended a short blade from his finger and used it as a letter opener, the Maid bowed and left the room in a hurry as (Y/N) took the letter out of the Envelope and read it, a smile coming to his face as he read the words that were written.

"What is it, Brother?" Bela asked curiously as she stood up and walked over to see what made her Older Brother smile.

"It's a letter from Mr. Ollivander, it seems my Wand is ready for pick up" (Y/N) said quietly as he showed his Sister the letter and then stood up from his seat, dusting himself off before he made his way to the Fireplace and took a handful of Floo Powder.

"Where are you going?" Bela asked in surprise, as she watched her Brother duck into the fireplace.

"To fetch my new Wand, finally, French Ministry of Magic!" (Y/N) said as he threw down the handful of powder, his body was quickly engulfed in Green Flames, before he vanished from sight, he had to once again travel to the Ministry and Portkey to England before taking a train to London and finally he arrived at the Leaky Cauldron and stepped into the suddenly quiet Pub, with the patrons looking at him with intimidation and awe in their eyes.

(Y/N) quickly walked out of the Leaky Cauldron and into Diagon Alley, making his way to Ollivander's Wand Shop, to finally pick up his Wand, he walked down the street passing more Witches and Wizards who were going around shopping, who stopped and gaped at the young man as he passed them by, some whispering in hushed voices as they watched him pass by.

(Y/N) soon reached Ollivander's Wand Shop and eagerly went inside to see what was made for him, when he walked in Mr. Ollivander walked out from the back, holding a box similar to to other boxes that were piled up all around the shop, but this box was black in colour.

"Ah, young Lord Dimitrescu, you got my letter I suppose?" Ollivander said to (Y/N) with a smile as he walked to the store counter, (Y/N) nodded and walked over to the counter as Ollivander set down the box.

"Yes, I'm very eager to see what has been made" (Y/N) said as he looked at the box eagerly, feeling like a kid at Christmas.

"Then by all means, open the box and see what I have made for you" Mr. Ollivander said to the Tall young man, as he smiled and gestured to the black box for (Y/N) to open it and see his new Wand, (Y/N) nodded and removed the lid of the box, and looked at his Wand.

"15 inches, Whomping Willow, and a White Crystal Core" Ollivander said as he looked at his latest work, also very curious to see if the Wand would work, considering this was the first Wand of it's kind, (Y/N) looked at the design with a smile before he picked it up.
