Royals (Draco Malfoy x Reader)

Chapter 26

I laid in bed my gaze fixated on the ceiling, my breaths heavy and uneven I blinked slowly. Jinx entered the room quietly and makes her way to my side "Miss Elizabeth has requested your presence" the elf spoke and I simply nodded watching her exit the room. I was in a rather foul mood since I left Hogwarts for the summer. My feet touch the cold wood, I look at the clock 5:45 pm and I wrap the blanket Draco had given me at the ending of the school year, it was soft to the touch. I made my way through the corridors and they were empty, not so much as a single person around the halls.

I pushed the doors open and cleared my throat walking towards the desk that had paperwork messily sprawled everywhere. I sat down "we must attend a soiree tonight" she looked at me "where?" I questioned quietly "Malfoy Manor, I have business to attend to there," she said cooly but I knew she was hiding something, I nodded "be ready for 7 pm sharp, a dress shall appear in your wardrobe in five minutes" she called out to me as I walked out the doors. William was with his relatives in Paris and the rest of the staff has today off, they always have has Sundays off, as long as I can remember. I pushed my bedroom doors open and Dorian weaved through my legs purring at me and I smiled slightly, walking through the room, I opened my windows and moved around the room opening my wardrobe a beautiful dress laid I threw it onto the bed roughly.

I sat in the bath and submerged my head under the water, I had almost died a few months ago and I was still in shock, I had nightmares constantly flashes of tom riddle flow through my head and I sit up quickly shuddering, I stood and dried off quickly. I stared at myself in the mirror, the cuts and bruises had healed but I hadn't, the memories wouldn't go away. I glanced at the clock 6:30 pm I sighed and dried my hair off pinning the two from strands to the back of my head with a snake pin letting the rest flow freely. I slipped on the dress and a pair of abalone silver heels with it. I strapped two necklaces around my neck, one with a silver snake and the other was just a silver Riviere type necklace diamonds engraved into it. I slipped crystal earrings into my ears and three rings. "(Name)!" my mother shouts her voice echoing through the halls I pet Dorian goodbye and pick up a clutch slipping my wand in. I trekked through the halls and walked down the stairs quickly. "I'm here mother" my tone was void of emotion and the women glanced me up and down nodding in approval I looked at the grand clock 7:00 pm. Mother grabbed my hand "you'll feel queasy after this" she looked at me and I looked back confused. We apparate and I wanted to puke my guts up as we swirled around, I felt like I was being forced through a very tight rubber tube, I could barely breathe I squeezed my eyes shut. We landed roughly and Mother held me upright and turned to me, she began to fix my hair "you look rather beautiful" she commented her thumb grazing my cheek a small smile playing on her face. I never understood her sometimes she hates me and others she loves me with every fibre of her being. 

I glance up and there is Malfoy Manor, it was beautiful A high, manicured yew hedge borders the driveway on both sides. The driveway is perfectly straight, running through wrought-iron gates and straight up to the front door. The gardens were large and gorgeous flowers and fountains laid in many places and animals such as albino peacocks walk through the gardens I smile as I and mother walk to the door and It swings open and there stands The Malfoys. Mother grins as she approaches "Narcissa!" she smiled hugging the women, she was tall and slim with pale skin blue eyes and black and blonde hair, she smiled brightly at mother and they squeezed each other happily.  I could see which one Draco took after clearly now, I glanced at him he had his father eyes but his mother's features, his hair was no longer slicked back but let fall naturally, he looked a lot better than he did last year. 

I curtsied to the two men and they bowed back "Hello Miss Windsor" Lucius shook my hand and I grinned"(Name) is fine, Mr Malfoy" I laughed lightly taking the mans hand "We got off on the wrong foot (name), but I do hope we can start over" he smiled fakely and I nodded shaking it "of course!" I smiled but my eyes told the man differently I hated him. "Young Malfoy, you look ravishing" I chuckled lightly shaking Dracos hand and he raised his eyebrows. "Call me Draco" he smirked as he shook my hand delicately. "you look rather gorgeous yourself" he shot me a joking wink.  He was much nicer out of school. Narcissa turned to look at me a smile on her lips she took my hand a twirled me "I don't know if you remember me but I and my sister are your godmothers" her smile was gentle and sincere. "It's a pleasure" I smiled happily at her. "come now the party has started" she led us into a ballroom where many people danced happily. "Draco, look after (Name) while we talk with Elizabeth" Lucius had a tight grip on his arm and pushed him towards me a glare on his face the adults walked away an awkward silence taking us over music and laughter echoing in the background.
