Cold. It was cold outside, where Aurelia had been laying the whole night. It didn't help that it started to snow, either. The only thing she had to warm her up was the jacket Draco gave her a few hours ago.
"What are you doing here?!" A female voice shouted, pulling Aurelia out of her sleep. She quickly opened her eyes, standing up.
It wasn't long until she saw Kayla Mafoy standing in front of her, "I- am-"
"Is that my husband's jacket?" She interrupted her in disbelief.
The girl looked down at herself, the jacket of her master wrapped around her.
"I- He-" She started but could find the right words. She wasn't only scared for her life at this very moment but also for what would happen to Draco's reputation.
Kayla Malfoy was furious. She wanted to get rid of Aurelia and Draco all to herself again. She was aware of the looks he gave her, even if she was nothing but a slave. For her, it was just a matter of time before he will make a move.
She was aware of the fact it was forbidden and if she had to, she would report him to Voldemort.
"Get the fuck up and start working or I swear to hell I will kill you myself." The woman hissed, looking down at her in disgust.
Aurelia stood up immediately, handing her Draco's jacket before quickly leaning down to pick up the beautiful flower.
"No." That was all Kayla said.
Aurelia looked at her, then back to the flower, "B-but-"
"Crucio!" It was like time stopped. Aurelia fell to the floor, screaming out in pain. She was used to the pain, that was the sad thing.
After a few minutes, when her screams died down a bit, Kayla let go of her. "Pathetic," She rolled her eyes, picked up the flower and walked inside.
And with that Aurelia was left alone in the garden, another thing of hers taken away from her.
Although she was in pain, she stood up and tried to find her way inside the Manor. After a while, she actually did it and started working, just like she was supposed to.

"Are you sure it wasn't just a dream?" Sonja laughed after Aurelia told her everything that had happened last night.
"No it w-was real," Aurelia told her, hoping that she would believe her.
The red-haired girl shook her head, "Draco, as in Draco Malfoy, gave you his jacket, one of his mother's flowers and was actually nice to you? Yeah, that sounds totally normal."
"I know, b-but it's th-he truth," Aurelia mumbled, fiddling with her fingers.
Sinja looked at her with a small smile, "I believe you, although it sounds completely made up."
Aurelia thanked her and gave her a big hug, "It's 2 a.m. I w-will go to sle-ep now."
And with that, she left the kitchen and walked to her small room. It didn't take long before the darkness took over her.
----
In the middle of the night, she woke up to a soft voice. At first, she was confused but she quickly recognised it. Draco.
Aurelia didn't dare to open her eyes and just pretended to be still asleep.
"And that's the reason I did it. What are you doing to me? I am not allowed to care for you. I am supposed to hate you, to torture you. I am pathetic for feeling like this but can't help it," She heard him say.
What does that mean? Was she still dreaming? Was this all real or just happing inside her head?
"We are living in a cruel world, but maybe one day you and I will find a way out. I know that you could never love someone like me, I have done awful things. Honestly, I am not even sure if I am able to love. We aren't meant to be but why do I feel this fucking way about you. My littlemudblood." After those words left his mouth he stood up and walked out of her room.
Aurelia's heart has never beaten so fast. She couldn't believe what she just heard.
The only thing Aurelia wanted to do right now was ask him what that was, but she knew better than that. She turned over, closed her eyes and tried to fall asleep.
Tried.
She couldn't even sleep for a minute. She lay in her tiny bed and thought about the things he said.
When it was time for her to stand up, she got ready and started her work.
When it was finally time for her to eat, Kayla walked into the kitchen. What was she doing here?
"You think you have time to relax? I want you to clean the manor." She told Aurelia.
The girl was confused, she cleans the manor a few days ago, it wasn't necessary just now. But she also didn't want to argue with her mistress, so she just nodded and started cleaning.
The Malfoy woman simply threw away the untouched food in the kitchen.
