Twisted Fate - Draco Malfoy x fem reader

Chapter 26

Draco's POV;

He walked into his manor, knowing his Father was home because the door was unlocked. He clutched his wand tightly in his hand, silently closing the door as he crept down the hallways, his footsteps silent.

The hallways were long, so were the staircases, and there was no one in sight. He ignored the nerves forming within his stomach, needing to remind himself that he was doing this for her sake. For her life. She was his motivation to go against the person who's made his life a miserable pain. He walked down the hallway and looked in each room, each wall painted and decorated to be a dark grey, black and green.

" Master?" Dobby asked, surprised to see Draco returned from Hogwarts. Draco looked at him and the sweep brush in his hand. " What is Master Draco doing here? " Dobby asked curiously, but also in slight fear from the way he's treated by Lucius. Draco placed his finger against his lips, signalling him to be quiet.

" Do you know where my Father is?" Draco asked, whispering in case he wasn't far. Dobby nodded slowly, he doesn't look exactly happy, he looked more nervous at for what was going on. But Dobby didn't say anything and told him exactly what Draco needed to know, knowing that it was important.

Draco thanked him and headed upstairs to the bedroom. He was having a nap, which was a good advantage to steal it because Draco knew where his Father kept his jewellery. He walked down the long hallway on the top floor, walking past multiple bedrooms and portraits and stopped at his parent's room. He peeked through the cracked door to see his Father asleep in his black, King sized bed.

Draco inhaled deeply to breathe away his nerves, or try too, and silently walked in. Trying to be as quiet as possible. His footsteps made the floorboards creak, making him stop for a moment to see if it had woken him up in any way. Luckily it didn't and he continued to tip toe over to him.

He then placed a sleeping spell on Lucius so he wouldn't wake up until he broke it.

Sighing in relief, he could walk around without needing to worry about noise now. He opened the drawer to see a collection or rings, necklaces and pins but no sign of the silver necklace that contained her life source. He began to internally panic. If it wasn't here then it could be anywhere, and he didn't have the time for that at all.
Y/n didn't have the time.

" Looking for this?" He turned around and his eyes widened in surprise, his breath hitching in his throat from the person stood at the doorframe.

Meanwhile with Y/n, she was constantly throwing up in the toilet. Every time felt as if she was throwing up her guts, and it wasn't a great feeling. Riaz held her hair back as she did, being beside her through every way of the journey.
After she was finished, she brushed her teeth once again and drank lots of water, grabbing a bucket and laid on her bed, snuggling into the covers.

" Is Draco back yet?" she asked, worried for his sake as she gripped the ring within her hand tightly. She wanted him back. She wanted to feel his warmth, inhale the scent of green apples that radiated from him. His presence managed to make her fall asleep after two days without rest.
She loved him to much.

Riaz shook his head, handing her a fresh cup of herbal tea, " No, but I'm sure he'll be back soon. He's a tough lad, he'll do anything to make you feel better," Y/n nodded, despite her words not soothing her worries at all.

Back to Draco

" Mother?" He asked in shock.

Narcissa nodded, walking over and pulling her son into a deep hug. He slowly hugged back, still in shock, trying to process the information. She soon pulled away, smiling at him softly,
" Tell me Draco, how much do you love her?
Y/n?" Draco hesitated, glancing at his sleeping Father, scared that he can hear somehow.
If he ever finds out he has as big as a weakness as Y/n, he'll surely come after her, but that would be a stupid move because that would declare a war against Fae.

Draco nodded, swallowing the lump that was forming in his throat, " I love her. More than anything in this world. If it's not her then her smile and laughter can bring me joy. I can't lose her, Mother,"
Narcissa couldn't help but smile, knowing what it felt like to fall so desperately in love with another. She could see the light within his gaze, the light of pure love. Draco was certainly nothing like his Father when it came to love.
She was relieved.

She placed the necklace into his hand,
" Go and save her. She needs you as much as you need her. Now go, before the spell breaks,"
Draco thanked her, kissing her on the cheek before running out of the house and back onto his broom to save Y/n.
