Chapter 27:

"Malfoy Manor," Sirius called before he stepped in to the flames, he caught himself before he was thrown out of the grate and managed to step out gracefully. An elf popped in to meet him and Sirius requested to speak with the Lady of the manor, he was led up to the sunroom where Narcissa was reading as she sipped her tea.

"Oh, hello, Sirius," She greeted, "This is unexpected."

"Yeah, sorry about that," He said sheepishly, "I have news and I didn't think it could wait."

"Do have a seat," She told him, indicating the chair opposite.

"Thanks,"

"What is it that cannot wait?" Narcissa asked, interested.

"Remember aunt Cassiopeia?"

"Yes, what about her? She's been dead for years."

"That's the thing… She's not dead." Sirius said, running a hand through his hair. Narcissa's eyes widened and she looked at him as if he was insane.

"What?" She gasped.

"She's not dead." Sirius repeated.

"But, that's not possible. I mean, it was announced. I attended the funeral."

"Well, whatever that was, it certainly wasn't Aunt Cassie." Sirius stated and Narcissa blinked.

"Are you sure?"

"Very sure,"

"How do you know?"

"I saw her, I had tea with her, and I spoke to her." Sirius told her, "I think I am very sure."

"Oh my,"

"Yeah," Sirius agreed, "When I stepped out in to the Château she was the last thing I expected to see."

"I can imagine." Narcissa muttered, "Well, this is a surprise."

"I, of course, had to be the one to fill her in with everything that has been going on from a first hand view." Sirius said and Narcissa smirked.

"I assume that went extremely well, especially as she, no doubt, wanted to speak all about Harrison." Narcissa said amused, Sirius scowled at her, "Did she speak about contracts too?"

"Laugh it up, she wants a dinner and you can bet your fortune that you are going to be there." Sirius grumbled.

"I may have a full calendar." Narcissa backtracked.

"Oh, it will be such a shame when I tell Aunt Cassie that you were unfortunately busy, but you will be delighted to have her here for dinner." Sirius told her cheerfully and she gave him a filthy look.

"We will attend."

"I knew I could count on you, cousin." Sirius said brightly.

"How did Harrison respond to her?" Narcissa asked, changing the topic.

"He had her wrapped around his finger in an instant. The kid knew exactly what to say, when to say it and how to act in that situation." Sirius shook his head, "I don't think he will ever stop surprising me."
