She apparated home to Malfoy Manor. As usual the white peacocks fluttered around the well groomed garden. The place was magical and still was, but she was ready to flee in a beat of a moment.
She entered the house to be greeted by their house elf Stickles. "Misses, would you like me to gets anything's for you's?" She was just about to reply when he walked in.
"Good morning darling." He walked over to her in his most elegant way, a strut that was impossible to copy and perfect and placed a kiss on her forehead. He pulled back. "And may I inquire where you ran off to from the comfort of our own bed?" She grimaced.
"I took a stroll in Hogsmead and stopped for some tea. Their building a new book shop over there that I just cant wait to explore." He grabbed her hands in his and looked her in the eyes. Yes, this was partially true, they were building a new book shop, but of course that's not all she did.
"Well, if it was that important to you to go this morning then why not?" He pulled away from her and sneered. "Next time, do inform me before you leave. I don't need anything to happen to you." He turned from her and began to examine the plants on the ledge of the wall, of course the rarest only rested in Malfoy Manor.
"I can assure you I was fine." She said proudly. Before she knew it he jumped at her and grabbed her wrist.
"What I say goes!" He seethed, she looked at him with fear in her eyes. He dropped her wrist and patted he arm. "I'm sorry dear.." He raised his hands to cup her face, "Let's forget that happened and won't you join me for some tea?" He smiled at her in the most sinister way. She smiled.
"Why of course, you only want what's best for me. I'm sorry to worry you." He kissed her diligently on the lips. He pulled back and grinned. "Just let me change and I shall join you." She said. He let her go and he sauntered into their grand dining room. She breathed a sigh of relief and went upstairs to their bedroom. There, she threw her cloak on the bed as well as herself and screamed into the sheets. She hoped Severus would help her soon.
She quickly changed, not wanting to keep him waiting and went downstairs. He was already delving himself into the Daily Prophet. She sat down in her chair, which was more so a throne because it swallowed her small form. Stickles entered the dining room with a cup of tea for her and some biscuits. She mouthed a thank you.
At Malfoy Manor, she was not allowed to show any kindness to the house elves, but she couldn't help it. As she sipped her tea, he set his paper down and looked at her. He seemed to be gazing at her.
"Lucius, please don't do that." She said blushingly. Although he was a bloody arse, he still could make her blush, something that betrayed her very self. He turned his head.
"Where's your ring?" She looked at him questioningly but gazed down at her ring finger. It wasn't there. 'Damn't, I left it at Rosmerita's' She cursed at herself.
"Oh, I took it off when I was bathing last night. It's probably up on the night stand." She skittishly grinned at him. He quirked his lips in return.
"Well do make sure that you wear it when you go out. I don't want anyone thinking your... up for grabs should I say, because then it will make me, as well as yourself look bad." She nodded her head in understanding. "Have you heard anything from our dear friend Severus?" She nodded her head eagerly.
"Oh yes, he said he would be happy to join us on Friday." He nodded his head and took a sip of his tea. "It has been quite some time since we all have gotten together." She added, hiding the smile that displayed upon her lips. He nodded his head.
"Of course. What can we say, were both very busy men and he never seems to find time for anything, much less even have a love life. Of course me being lucky, gets to come home to you every night." She smiled and hung her head. Lucius wouldn't let her work, he said that it was better for her to stay home. Another thing she wasn't allowed to do. "Well my, my, look at the time! I really must be going darling." He stood up and kissed her before departing. She just sat there in silence.
