Lyra Malfoy

Chapter 9

After the whole mess yesterday we were outside all day, enjoying everything around us, it was our last moments of peace. We hadn't spent so much money in years. Everyone then went home. I had told them that for today I didn't want them to come with me to buy the items for Hogwarts.

I had to go shopping for everything, owls, a wand, books.....

This was my last day I was going to be at Malfoy Manor and all the Hogwarts students would find out that Draco Malfoy had an older sister for four months.

I headed towards the dining room for breakfast.

I was very plain, jeans that weren't cut off, black turtleneck blouse and an emerald green blazer.

-Hi blondie," my brother greeted me, he looked a little better than before, he smiled just a little at me, "I see you're going out.

I was already sitting in front of Draco, there was a variation of food on the table to choose from and I had a plate to serve myself.

-Yes, I'm going to Diagon Alley," I said with a big smile looking at him, "Don't you have to change your books?

-I already did, the day you had to do "something very important" -I raised an eyebrow and became serious, I knew where this conversation was going- Why did you decide to join the Mortifagi? And of your own free will Lyra," he said looking at me with his eyebrows furrowed trying to understand my decision.

I put the cutlery aside and looked away, I let out a sigh as I touched my tongue to my upper teeth.

-You know why I do it," I said looking him in the eyes and pulling me forward, "I've wanted to take revenge on that filthy rat for a long time, and the only way is to be close to him attacking in the shadows.

-But you know it's something very dangerous, Lyra," he said with a serious expression looking me straight in the eyes, "I understand all this but something could happen to you and you don't care about anything....

I stood up to walk towards him.

-You know I'm strong Draco- I said grabbing him by both shoulders, he was looking at me with a sad face- But if I have to sacrifice myself to get my inner peace I'm going to do it and nobody is going to stop me ok?- I said to finish hugging him, he accepted my hug with more strength than others.

But he was not satisfied with the last thing I said, so he continued talking.

-I was back between a rock and a hard place, I was having a hard time saying no to my little brother, Lyra, I beg you please sister.

I was looking at him with wide eyes, how my proudest brother was imploring me I couldn't believe it, my heart was squeezed.

-Ok, ok Draco, if it doesn't go as expected, I'll leave him for good," he sighed calmly knowing that I would listen to him, I closed my eyes with resignation, he had hugged me again as if with one less burden, "Now let's go back to our breakfast ferret.

He changed his face to a serious one, I was inwardly laughing, I loved that new nickname.

I went back to my seat to finish what was left of my meal.

-Lyra, I'll go with you but you're going to have to tell me who is stealing my sister," he looked like he was going to kill someone, I choked on a piece of pancake.

-What the fuck are you saying Draco," I said trying to get the choked piece of food out of my mouth, I finally managed with some water.

I didn't understand anything, what was this oxygenated blond saying.
