Welcome, this is a spinoff from 'Blood Traitor'. This book covers the events in Blood Traitor but in Draco's perspective, as oppose to the reader's. If you also read that book it will give you a better understanding of this one. Just to clarify an important piece of information: the reader's parents are death eaters that didn't get caught. Anything say about any of the houses is not my opinion, it is solely the opinion of Draco. Remember I am writing in his perspective in this book, So please don't be offended by anything said about any of the houses. As a Hufflepuff, I do not judge people for their houses.

One day I will become a death eater. I will be feared. After all I am a Malfoy. However I have a secret; I have always loved (Y/N) (L/N). Some people would say that I am too young to feel this way but I know my emotions. Nobody else knows, in fact (Y/N) thinks that I hate her. However that's okay. Because she is a (L/N) we are destined to the same fate which means that we will be married no matter what even if it is forced. My only concern is the sorting ceremony. Obviously I'm not concerned about myself, I'm feeling the pressure but know that I'm going to be in Slytherin. However, (Y/N) is different to the rest of her family, so could end up in a different house. If this happens not only will our future marriage be off, I will also be forbidden from speaking to her.

Today's the day, I'm going to Hogwarts. Mother and Father have already made sure that I have the best equipment for my first year. Obviously, I'm going to be in Slytherin; I can't imagine being sorted into any other house. Especially Hufflepuff; if I was sorted into Hufflepuff I would leave, any self respecting wizard would. I can't wait for Hogwarts to start; I know that I'm going to make my father proud.

Before I know it I am on the train. Seeing (Y/N) I know that I want her to sit with me but I know that she would never do it willingly. Eventually I decide that I will call her over but to save face I will tell her that my father says that we have to.
'Oi (L/N)!' I call out to her. Turning around she says 'yes Malfoy.'
She looks at me in disgust. I know she hates me, she always has. To be fair at times I think she has good reason to. Even so, I can not be nice to her, my father says that she is weak and unworthy of serving the dark lord. I remember him telling me that she is 'practically a mudblood.'
'Sit with us.' I assertively say.
As I expect she opposes, so I use the lie that I'd thought up and tell her that my father wants us to sit together. To my relief she believes it and sits down. Unfortunately our time on the train together is extremely short lived. She hates it when I insult mudbloods but obviously if I stopped then she would suspect something, so I can't. After a while she snaps and leaves the carriage. Unsure about what to do I find myself muttering the words 'wait until my father hears about this.'
Unsurprisingly, this doesn't work, she's never been intimidated by my father; it's her own parents that she is afraid of. (Y/N) is extremely brave. Being disowned is her only fear. It always has been. Even when we were children. (Y/N) has never been Slytherin, she never will be either. Once she is sorted she will most likely have to face her fear, secretly I am absolutely terrified for her. I've been brought up in the same way that she was so I know what will happen if she isn't a Slytherin. I'm lucky, I fit the criteria for the house. But I know that she will not.

Once we arrive at Hogwarts, I look for (Y/N). Unfortunately I cannot find her. This means that a girl called Pansy Parkinson gets into our boat instead. Wishing that (Y/N) was on the boat, I spend the majority of the journey sitting in silence but try to act like nothing's wrong.

Eventually we get to the school. While we are waiting to be sorted, I see Harry Potter. When I go over to him he rejects my friendship. Why on earth would he choose to be friends with a Weasley when he could be friends with me. Mcgonagall starts talking about the houses, when she mentions Slytherin I can't help but give a smirk of pride to my friends Crabbe and Goyle. Slytherin is the best house, it accepts real wizards and I am worthy of that honour.

Names are called, students are sorted. After a while my name is called. Unsurprisingly, the hat calls Slytherin before it is even placed on my head. Smirking, I sit down, (Y/N)'s name is called next. As she steps forward I feel butterflies. Desperately, I hope she's a Slytherin (even though I'd never admit it). Unfortunately, the hat sorts her into Hufflepuff. Unsure about how to react I find myself screaming:
'Filthy blood traitor!'
Instantly, I feel bad for saying that but I can't let anyone know so I keep glaring at her. Merlin's beard, I'm going to have to tell my father, he'll definitely pass it on to the (L/N)s. Admittedly, I don't want to but when the (L/N)s inevitably find out my father will ask why I didn't inform him. I can't disappoint my father. Ever since I was a child I have promised myself that I will never disappoint my father under any circumstances. Not knowing what else to do I find myself smirking at (Y/N) to make it look like I want her to be disowned. She can't know how I really feel. Especially now that she is in Hufflepuff. I hate thinking about what will happen.

Alright Draco think of the positives, you're in Slytherin. Your parents will be proud. You are reaching your potential. You are one step closer to becoming a death eater. You are great enough to serve the dark lord. You are strong. You are in Slytherin.

These thoughts remind me what's important. Serving the dark lord. Purifying the wizarding world. Getting rid of mudbloods. That's what I have to focus on. Other people aren't important. Especially if those people are blood traitors. As soon as I get chance, I write a letter to my father explaining everything that's happened, pushing any guilt aside, she's a blood traitor and I need to assure that she gets what she deserves.
