My Lifeline- Dramione

Imprint

Chapter 16 :

There was a sudden warm feeling that engulfed Hermione. She could feel the outpouring of warmthness within her.
Her heart was emitting positive vibes of love.

And it was a very strong feeling... too powerful to overcome.

But then, she was calm all of a sudden. All the emotions that were running throughout her veins, momentarily stopped as she glanced towards the person standing near the door.

She felt those beautiful silver orbs looking her bared soul.

Little did she know, she was imprinted by none other than Draco Lucius Malfoy.

(Imprinting is a Malfoy Tradition, Malfoy Men shall imprint their true love, their soul mate and thus give them a mark which they both shall possess until death, do them apart.

This Mark can be found anywhere in the body, every place of mark in the body signifies an important meaning.

The strongest of the strongest bond shall have their mark behind their neck- spine, as spine is the most important part of the body which connects our brains to the other parts of the body, it controls the movements of all the parts. The Mark which is placed here, will have the strongest love bond ever.)

Both of them, were lost in their world, until a sudden voice laced with anger made them look apart.

"Malfoy, what are you doing here?" Ron asked angrily. Of all the people in the world, the ferret came here... Especially when Harry was in such a suffering condition.

"I thought Potter needed the Spirited Potion, Weasley. Prof. Snape sent me here, to give you this." Malfoy looked sharply at Ron. He didn't want to waste his time in arguing with the bloody weasel. Also, because he stood so close to Granger. Damn why does that bother me, he thought.

"Thank you Malfoy, I'll take this" Hermione said gently.

"Okay, Granger" He stood in his position as Granger came near to him. He felt his breath hitched as he handed over the container. This was the first time they stood so close. And the first time that his fingers brushed hers.

One touch and both felt an electric wave jolt through their bodies...

Draco never felt this type of deadly attraction towards any girl before. He had dated several girls, but what he felt now was different. Very different.

He didn't know what this feeling was, but definitely he had to admit that Hermione Granger was very beautiful, kind and intelligent girl ever, to match him.

Hermione on the other hand, was simply dumbstruck. This new emerging feelings for Malfoy, was scaring the wits out of her.

No she can't possibly be attracted to Malfoy. He hates muggleborns or rather Mudblood, the way he calls her. He has tormented her since the first day of Hogwarts.

And to top on that, the Malfoy's were one of the richest pureblood in the magical world and great supporters of Voldemort. These reasons were enough for her to dislike him.

But soon another voice distracted them to look apart.

Madam Pompfrey entered the hospital wing with new potions in hand, "Mr Malfoy, thank you for assisting Prof. Snape in this potion, Harry needs it immediately. You may leave now."

On hearing this Ron stood up angrily, "Malfoy must have definitely poisoned it, we can't trust him, Madam Pompfrey."

Now, Malfoy was really offended by his statement." What do you mean, Weasel? If you really think that I have poisoned the potion, then prove it!" he shouted.

"Silence please, Mr Weasely, please do not accuse Mr. Malfoy!" she took the potion from Hermione's hand. "He did help Prof. Snape in brewing this potion, so instead of accusing him, thank him for actually trying to save Mr. Potter's life here." She said sternly and spun around towards Harry's bed.

"Ron, please don't accuse him, he possibly can't poison this." Hermione's statement snapped the attention of both the boys. "Think rationally, if Malfoy really poisoned it, Prof. Snape's reputation will be at stake, which I'm sure, Malfoy would never want that to happen." she huffed impatienty at Ron.

Seriously, Ron was dragging this matter...

Both Ron and Draco were dumbfounded by her outburst.

Did Hermione Granger really defend Draco Malfoy ??

A small smile could be seen forming on Malfoy's face.

Ron, on the other hand was very furious with Hermione for supporting Malfoy! He wanted to argue and probably kick Malfoy's arse and his smile too. But he chose to remaine quite, as he didn't want to be kicked out by Madam Pompfrey.

Now it's time to give Harry, "The Spirited Potion!"
