You are ruthless, cunning, but honorable. Papa has his own demons, she muttered. Do you think that Claire killed Julien? she asked him softly because the question had been niggling at her mind ever since he had mentioned the deaths of her other husbands. He isn't, but I won't tell you how I know. No one would blame you later if you divorced him. Perhaps Rionet had some of his mother ability like Lady Isaura suspected. Pollux chuckled. Was Draco still feeling shaky? His mind shied away from embracing the idea. Scorpius hoped that Sirius was right. Shall you be our matchmaker? he asked the other boy. Grandmother thinks that I may have inherited those gifts., Draco mulled that over for a few moments. Lucius smiled fondly at the praise for his only son and heir.

"I said I would be with you in a moment." The stories were mostly happy and showed Theo that his father was not always a terrible traitor. She wanted for her children to rise up and take a place among the wizarding elite. If there was one thing that Narcissa would never tolerate it was abuse toward a child in any form.
