Draco POV

As I walked down the aisle with my new wife, I couldn't help but smile {she is mine now} I thought greedily, when I saw her walking down the aisle towards me I couldn't help but hold my breath at how beautiful she was, I already knew years ago that she was beautiful but not in a classical way like daphne but in a more natural way, that made her stand out more than anyone else, I think I knew back in Hogwarts that she was the only one who could be worthy of becoming a Malfoy, I had once spoke of it to my parents one evening at dinner and I knew my father didn't see it {well to be honest he was angry at my comments, but he still listened} I thought sniggering, but I saw my mother watching hermione more closely after that conversation, hermione wouldn't of really noticed how she was constantly watched and if she did, she never said anything or acted like she knew, but then again given that it was just after the war and before the trails, mother couldn't say anything to her

I'm not saying that I owe the ministry anything for pairing me with her because I don't, since she is the only one who would be compatible with me, daphne often said that she thinks we would've made the 'perfect' couple in Hogwarts but because of so much going on, it wasn't allowed to flourish, but the last month of our engagement and me getting to know her, I found myself hating my younger self because she was beautiful, intelligent, honest and fucking sexy, my mother was singing her praises after only spending one day with her and that made my father rethink on what he thought of hermione, though he has changed from what he was like during the war, he still held some of the beliefs {I couldn't expect him to change a lifetime of teachings within only a few short weeks, but I knew he would accept them once he truly thought about it all} I thought remembering his thoughtful face every time the topic came up, hermione also admitted to me a few days into our betrothal that my parents were nothing like she thought they would be and she honestly has a good time when we all have dinner together, a week ago we all went out for dinner at my parents favourite restaurant and the constant looks we got was annoying but hermione just carried on eating or speaking to my mother about the gala

A few of my fathers business partners were also there and they did come over to speak to my father but I think they were just curious about hermione sitting with us, though it had been public knowledge that we were betrothed and were getting married on this day, since they were also invited to the wedding "you are very quiet husband" I heard my wife say, I looked to her and saw she was watching me "and now your smirking at me, are you having a breakdown" she teased as I moved closer to her, I shook my head slowly "I was thinking about you and the fact that you are now my wife, legally" I wrapped my arms around her waist "mmm, that is right" she whispered as she leaned up and kissed me, I growled lowly before deepening the kiss, it was like a fire whenever we kiss, that slow burn that starts to get more intense the long it goes "I can't wait to get you alone, wife" I panted as we slowly pulled apart "me either husband" she said breathlessly "but now we have a party to get too" she continued as she moved further away from me and towards the mirror

"I don't think I've told you how beautiful you look in your dress" I commented smiling at her, as she fixed her makeup and hair "no you haven't but I don't think I have told you how handsome you look either" she replied smiling at me in the mirror, I smirked at her "well I wanted to look my best for my wife, didn't I" I answered proudly, she was just about to say something when there was a knock on the door and then my parents came through "are you both ready, everyone is in the ballroom" mother asked as she smiled softly at hermione "yes, we've just about ready, though cissy did I see a few uninvited redheads in the ceremony" hermione commented slowly as she turned towards us, looking like she did before our snogging, I smirked when she walked closer to me again but then I remembered what she said "what, who invited them" I asked narrowing my eyes at her but she just shook her head
