Pain Hurts

Chapter 10

Blaise and Pansy were walking behind Draco following him to his personal rooms confused as Hell as to why he needed to talk to them so urgently. They had taken so many twists and turns they both were completely lost until he abruptly stopped in front of a portrait of what they assumed to be a Basilisk. The blond whispered something they couldn't hear before they followed him into his common room.

"Look Draco honestly I don't know what you could've possibly said but it certainly could have been said in the Slytherin common room." Pansy complained, Blaise rolled his eyes before sitting down on the love seat furthest from the secret passage, Pansy sitting next to him. The blonde had barged into the common room this morning woke both of them up early and promptly dragged them through the halls. Draco sat on the sofa across from his bedroom door smirking at his friends; where Harry was tucked away safely waiting for Draco to call for him; Istral was there too just in case things got messy or if he needed moral support.

"Unfortunately Pansy you're wrong, this is very important and what is about to be said must stay between us, that I can not stress that enough. Understood?" Draco said quite smugly he was quiet excited to tell his friends about his mate and honestly he couldn't wait show of the beautiful teen to his friends. Pansy rolled her eyes, Blaise however seemed to know something was up. Draco sighed and rubbed his face. "I'm not a pure-blooded Wizard, in truth I'm a Veela-Vampire hybrid. My mother is a pure blooded Veela and the Malfoy line is made of Pure Blooded Royal Vampires surprisingly enough." Pansy gasped obviously surprised, Blaise's reaction was more refined to the widening of his eyes. "That idiot headmaster of ours cannot know who my mate is, neither can the Dark Lord for obvious reasons. I am telling you this because I can trust you, and seeing as we have recently completed our bond I need someone to cover for us when the bond becomes too much for us to stay separated any longer." Blaise nodded his head in understanding, Pansy however seemed to be shocked greatly; Draco wanted to laugh but he had more important things to do first.

"You're serious Draco?" Pansy asked she couldn't believe what she was hearing right now, Blaise rolled his eyes at his friend, he just explained how serious the situation was and she had the bollocks to ask if he was bloody serious about it.

"Draco we will give you an unbreakable vow. I know you don't need it; but it's for the best to protect us and you if what you say is true" Blaise suggested, effectively cutting his friend off; Draco nodded and smiled thankfully at his longtime friend. "Pansy, I'll go first." Pansy nodded dumbly as Draco stood up and held out his arm, Blaise grasped it.

"Blaise do you vow to keep the Identity of Draconis Lucius Malfoy's mate a secret from The Headmaster Dumbledore and all his followers along with The Dark Lord and all of his followers. Do you swear on your life and magic to keep this secret?" Pansy asked numbly, she honestly truly couldn't believe what was happening right now.
"I do" Blaise answered. Once the Vow was made, Pansy made the same vow to Draco right after. Once satisfied Draco sat back down only to be yelled at by Harry mentally.

'You made them take a bloody Unbreakable Vow?! Draco! You shouldn't have done that!' Draco chuckled mentally. Harry was pissed when he heard what they were doing and now he was about to give his mate hell for it. Being an Elf Harry had heightened senses that matched those of his mate's Vampire half, it took a while but now he could see without his glasses as well, but so no one would know Draco altered them so he could wear them without the prescription leaving everyone else out of the loop.

'It is only a precaution Harry, they asked for it my love' Draco answered making Harry growl back at him mentally before staying quiet knowing that they quite literally did ask for the vow, still not happy that his mate agreed to it.

"So Draco, will you kindly tell us who your mate is?" Pansy asked, her voice obviously expressing her distain at the situation she was put in; Draco just smiled at her.
