My story collection archive is still up and running. I've been slowly adding to it since it's inception in 2008. Might not seem like much is there, but I've been reading and re-reading a lot of fics over the years; finding some new favorites and old classics.

So if you'd like, please give it a look. You might find something you'll enjoy.

It was several hours later when Dobby returned with a reply and an oblong velvet box. He handed the letter to Harry first, stepping back a pace once he did so. One of the new raptor hatchlings moved closer, curious about the strange creature in its nest. For his part, Dobby remained motionless, letting himself be studied without showing any fear. The little raptor trilled with happiness before nuzzling against Dobby's shoulder. He looked at Harry in surprise. Harry smiled at him, having watched the whole thing.

It was a full week later and Dumbledore still had no leads as to where Harry had run off to. He'd blown his top when he returned to his office the day after Harry's disappearance and discovered that all the monitors he had tuned to Harry's magical signature had been destroyed. He wanted to blame someone for it but the only being in close proximity was Fawkes, who was currently a chick. None of the portraits had witnessed anyone in his office, although Phinneas Black had a smug look on his face when he suggested that Albus may want to check on his Potions Master. Sensing that Phinneas wasn't trying to joke, Albus went to the floo. Getting no answer from Severus's rooms, he tried to step through and was promptly thrown across the room. He always hated the fact that Severus blocked him from flooing whenever he felt like and refused Albus each time he asked for the password.

Word Count:
Disclaimer: Characters are the property of JK Rowling, et al. This fic/drabble was written for fun, not for profit.
Written for: JMDC No. 140 - creature, freak, horror, terrified, witch
Summary: How the hell did he get roped into caring for a Weasley?



The longer the blonde stared at it, the more terrified Harry should have been. But he wasn't.

"Well, aren't you going to do something?" came the voice of his partner. He tore his eyes away reluctantly, deep green meeting stormy gray.

"Honestly, I'm trying not to freak out," was his reply. Pale pink lips dropped open in horror.

"You can't leave me, with this... creature attached like she is!" Draco exclaimed, waving his arms about. Harry stared at the sleeping witch in his arms.

"You volunteered to babysit with me," Harry chuckled, staring at Hermione and Ron's baby daughter peacefully sleeping on Draco's chest.

"I thought you were referring to Edward!" Draco hissed. Despite his temper, he was reluctant to wake the sleeping child in his arms, even if it was a Weasley.

"I never said that," Harry sing-songed before walking out of the room.

"Potter, get back here!" Draco hissed, trapped beneath the baby's small body. All he got in return was Harry's amused laughter as he went to talk to Dobby about dinner.

Lady B's Observations: Better have a box of tissue handy. It's sweet/funny/angsty/sad/happy all at the same time. I was crying buckets by the end.

But I got it into my head a couple of weeks ago to make an attempt at writing a Harry Potter/Jurassic Park crossover. I'm currently writing it by hand which seems to help the ideas banging around in my brain come out better, and I can go back and re-read and make some edits where I need to instead of outright typing it out and finding some continuity errors later. But...it's coming along quite nicely. No pairings yet and takes place just before 3rd year. Might be a genfic, might be slash...that's TBD.

~



Flourish & Blotts, normally crowded with students and parents gathering books for the new year, was doubly crowded this particular day. The news that famed monster slayer and six-time winner of Witch Weekly's Best Smile, Gilderoy Lockhart was there for a book signing caused females both young and old to crowd the place.

Harry and his friends had just escaped his clutches and were set to leave when they were stopped on the way out.

"Weasley!" snarled the blonde, still angry about the raid upon his home some days before.

"Malfoy!" came the angry retort.

The two adversaries glared at one another. One wrong move, one wrong word, and wands would most likely be drawn.

"Arse." came the whisper, no one sure who spoke it.

Just like that, wands were disregarded as fists came into play. All anyone could do was stare in shock as the two rolled about on the floor, throwing punches left and right.

That was until well-aimed "Petrificus Totalis" from two different directions froze the combatants into place.

Two sets of eyes, one gray, one blue turned toward the doorway where two very angry witches stood.

"Arthur William Weasley!" screeched the voice of his wife, Molly.

"Lucius Abraxas Malfoy!" came the more dignified voice of his wife, Narcissa.

Both women stared at the two men, glares so frosty they could have been in the Arctic. Draco stood on one side of his mother while Harry, Hermione, and the other Weasley children stood a bit behind Molly.

"Um ... hi?" Arthur grinned.

"Hello, dearest." Lucius tried, a pink tinge to his cheeks.

Neither woman was falling for it.

Rumor has it you could still hear the echoing shouts of the women all around Hogsmeade for nearly a week.

Through it all, Arthur and Lucius could only grin at one another - Compatriots once again.

Before Harry found out he was a wizard, he was known throughout his hometown of Little Whinging, Surrey as "Freak", "Boy", or "That Strange Potter Child". He was the "discard", the one no one wanted...the one no one wanted to know. Orphaned before he was 2 years old and left on a doorstep in the middle of the night with only a thin blanket to protect him from the elements. Tossed into a cupboard under the stairs like and unwanted box and making friends with the spiders that hid in the eaves of the stairwell.

Severus Snape was having a really horrible day. It started with his 3rd year Hufflepuff/Slytherin class when one of his own Slytherins, Damion Markenson decided it would be a fun idea to toss salamander eyes into a Hufflepuff girl's Shrinking Solution, causing a pea green sludge to explode all over the poor girl. Not only did the girl lose every stitch of clothing on her body, but every inch of hair as well. She had to be transferred to Saint Mungo's for treatment and he had to watch one of his own be expelled from Hogwarts for the first time in history.

"Oh come on..."

"No."

"Please?"

"Harry, no."

"Pretty please?"

"No."

"But..."

"No."

"Fine." Harry stomps out of the store, leaving Draco behind. Sighing, Draco looked down and was caught by another pair of bright green eyes.

"Damn." he sighed, going to the shop owner to make the purchase. Harry would owe it to him later. He walked out of the store with the cute puppy with the bright green eyes and wondered just how he got suckered into it.

24th-Jun-2013 12:23 am - Fic Rec: Enough Is Enough (HP/FGW Triad fic)
Excerpt from "Enough is Enough" Chapter 21: The Goblins have decided enough is enough and help Harry overcome Dumbledore's manipulations. This is going to be fun.

Fudge had had enough. The Aurors hadn't been able to get to the boy because of some shied of sorts. It was time to call in the help.

'POTTER I SHALL SEE YOU KISSED FOR YOUR CRIMES! DEMENTORS!'

The air started to get chilly as the creatures answered the call. Some students began to panic and flee as far away from the doors as possible, making the teacher's table very crowded. The ones Harry taught had drawn their wands. Harry quickly had Lady Hogwarts place a shield over the student body. She wasn't all that happy to allow these creatures in but he's asked so nicely. He planned on showing Fudge just who he was dealing with.

The six remaining dementors closed in on him. He smirked.

'EXPECTO PATRONUM!'

Prongs had a grand old time scaring away the buggers. Prancing around it tossed them around and gave a couple a good kicking. The dementors knew they were beat. All but one fled the scene, the remaining one backed into a corner.

With Prongs at the ready Harry approached the last one.

What happened next would go down in history.

'Hey buddy, want a hug?'

'...'

'Aww come on gimme a hug. You know you wanna'.

'….'

'I'll be your best friend'.

His joke backfired when he suddenly had an armful of sobbing, he thought it was sobbing, dementor. Prongs jerked towards him, before realising Harry wasn't in danger and faded away. The dementor was letting out wails and other such noises that Harry couldn't understand, but he was pretty sure the dementor was talking. And he'd be right. If he were able to understand dementor speech, he'd hear:

'You called me buddy! *sniff* No one's ever *sniff* called me buddy before! *sniff* No one's ever even *sniff* hugged me before! I just want a *sniff* friend! Everyone runs away *sniff* from me! I'll be your best buddy for ever and ever! *sniff* I won't steal your soul or *sniff* make it all cold! I'll be good *sniff* I promise!'

The entire school population stood in astonishment as Harry Potter, the Boy Who Lived, stood soothing a wailing creature of darkness.

It would appear that Potter manor would be having another house mate.

Fudge and the Aurors began to back away slowly until they reached the corridor, where they proceeded to run all the way to the gates and apparate to the ministry.

Arrest Harry Potter, not bloody likely!

Henry was in the middle of his Civics class when another student stepped into the room to hand Professor Grady a note. The professor paused in his lecture to read it before giving a nod. He looked around the room and caught Henry's eye. "Henry, the Dean would like to see you."

Somewhere in Wiltshire, the day Harry Potter left Hogwarts forever...

Lucius Malfoy, scion of the Malfoy Family Line and a true Pure-blood, found himself in a quandary. He had not been one of the lucky ones at His Master's current residence when The Daily Prophet had arrived, but he had been at his own family manor when Draco rushed into his study, the aforementioned paper clutched tightly in a white-knuckled grip.

Chapter 2


Exactly four days later, the two men stepped off of a plane into bright, warm sunshine, green, lush palm trees, gorgeous blue ocean water...and scantily clad women every time they turned their heads. Lennox eyed them over the top of his sunglasses, a quiet wolf-whistle easing past his lips. Marcus was doing some staring of his own.

"Why are we living in Florida again?" Lennox asked his friend. Marcus, who had been staring a leggy brunette across the terminal, shook his head.

In an effort to try and jump start my muse, I'm trying to see how far I can go with something original. This story came to me a few nights ago after reading several interracial romance novels in a row.

Chapter 1


Mykala was in her office, going over some numbers when her phone rang once. She absently picked up the receiver, cradling it between ear and shoulder.

"Yes?"

"Your brother is on line 2." came her assistance voice.

"Thank you." she smiled as she quickly switched lines. "Marcus." she greeted, happy to have the chance to speak to her brother.

"Hey sis!" came his voice clearly as if he wasn't thousands of miles away in Florida. "Got your message. What's up?"

"Can't a sister just want to say 'hi'?" she laughed, charmed by his exuberance.

Title: Angel's Curse
Author: Lady B
Summary: It was an unwritten rule not to reveal the magical world to the muggle world. Someone has broken that rule and pays the consequences.
Characters: Harry Potter vs Criss Angel
Rating: PG13
Author Note: Someone, can't remember who it was, posted this as a status on their Facebook: "Dear Criss Angel, You're blowing our cover in front of the muggles. Sincerely, Harry Potter"

As the so-called magician Criss Angel performed some slight of hand trick, he was unaware of the wand pointed directly at him from the shadows of the balcony above. The technicians off-stage waited for their cue to fire off the laser show at the end of the trick. Criss tapped the side of his wrist twice, the signal for the techs to launch the lights. A rainbow of colors surrounded Criss and a particularly bright green struck him dead center of his chest. Criss collapsed to the ground and at first the audience thought it was part of the trick. When he did not move for another ten minutes, someone was sent to check on him. When the paramedics were brought in, then and only then did panic reign supreme. As people scrambled toward the stage, no one noticed the dark haired, green-eyed man as he made his way out of the building, nor did they notice the small slip of paper that had fallen from Criss pocket that he had shoved there seconds before he was scheduled to be on stage...

"Dear Criss Angel, You're blowing our cover in front of the muggles. Sincerely, Harry Potter"

The note was never discovered as it had been swept away by the cleaning staff.

The end.

The twelfth thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me: singing Christmas carols...

Harry sat between Draco and Severus at the Royal Opera House in London, watching the Vienna Boys Choir perform their annual Christmas concert. He was enchanted with the music, letting it fill his heart with Christmas joy and love. He raised the hand on his left, kissing Severus's palm. Severus gifted him with a warm smile and a whispered "I love you."

Harry turned to look at Draco, stunned by what he saw on his face. Draco had tears streaming down his cheeks and his eyes were wide in awe. Harry gently touched his arm and Draco looked at him.

"I love you, Harry." Draco whispered. Harry's own eyes widened. It was the first time he could recall since their bonding that Draco had ever said those words.

The smile those three words placed on Harry's face, would live in Draco's memory forever.

"I love you, too, Draco. Merry Christmas." Harry smiled, leaning forward to kiss him.

The eleventh thing at Christmas, that's such a pain to me: stale TV specials...

"You know Dasher...and Dancer...and Prancer...and Vixen..." Draco stared at the television screen, trying his damnedest to stop his eye from twitching. Harry had fallen in love with the movie "Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer" some years before and had been watching it every year since.

His hand twitched toward the remote, wondering if he could get away with changing the channel. Then Harry snuggled closer, nuzzling his nose in the warmth of Draco's neck, and stilled in his sleep with a small sigh. Draco gave him a tender smile and moved his hand away from the remote. Across the room, Severus caught his eye and smiled warmly.

I understand now. Draco murmured in his mind.

Good. Severus nodded.

The tenth thing at Christmas, that's such a pain to me: "Batteries not included!"

Such an innocuous phrase. Draco sighed, staring at the three words at the bottom of the box.

He knew what it meant of course.

Why did I let Severus talk me into buying this thing?

"Because you asked me what Harry never had as a child and I told you one of those hand held electronic games teenage muggle boys are so fond of. Not my fault you forgot batteries for it." Severus replied, guessing Draco's thoughts.

"I don't supposed you would know if any are around here?" Draco asked, staring at all the open bags and wrapping paper covering every surface of their bedroom.

"Accio triple a batteries!" Severus grinned, watching as one of the smaller bags flew into his hand.

"Thank you, Severus." Draco said, his heart melting a little.

Severus offered Draco one of his rare smiles, "You're welcome."

Draco went back to his wrapping.

He's finally starting to get it. Severus nodded to himself.

The ninth thing at Christmas, that's such a pain to me: finding parking spaces...

Harry sat in the back of the sleek silver Jag, struggling not to laugh as Draco moved the car up and down the parking lot of the shopping center. Draco had insisted on going Christmas shopping the muggle way and Harry didn't argue with him, allowing this small concession for the holidays.

Draco didn't count on having to fight people for an empty spot.

"There's one." Severus pointed out, watching as a car pulled out. Draco sighed with relief, but the minute he started to turn in, a smaller, faster car beat him to it. The man got out and looked a Draco with a rueful grin.

"Sorry, buddy! Better luck next year!" the man called out before jogging into the building. Harry felt the magic in the air and decided to, just this once, let Draco have his way. It was only fair, after all he had put up with over the last week.

Before Severus could blink, Draco had drawn his wand and levitated the man's car to the roof of the mall, obliviating any muggles who witnessed the strange phenomenon. Smirking at his lovers, he pulled into the empty slot.

"Feel better now?" Severus asked.

"Much." Draco smiled, opening the car door, "Let's go shopping!"

The eighth thing at Christmas, that's such a pain to me: I WANT A TRANSFORMER FOR CHRISTMAS!

For the tenth time this day, Draco wondered how he let Harry and Severus talk him into this ridiculous farce.

Oh yeah! Harry gave me his sad-eyed, kicked puppy look, and Severus threatened to withhold sex...for a month!

"Smile...Santa!" Harry hissed between his teeth as the next child in line moved to sit on "Santa" Draco's lap. Draco resisted the urge to growl and turned a bright smile on the blonde, blue-eyed boy in his lap.

"And what do you want for Christmas, little boy? (1)" Draco/Santa asked. The little boy looked at him with wide unblinking eyes for the longest time. Just when Draco was about to send the child on his way, he came back to reality with a blink.

"I want an Official Red Ryder Carbine-Action Two-Hundred-Shot Range Model Air Rifle!" the boy exclaimed in one breath. Draco stared at him, shocked for a moment, before an absurd thought came to him.

"You'll shoot your eye out, kid! Merry Christmas!" And he pushed the little menace off his lap.

"Draco!" Harry growled.

"Don't tell me you didn't think of it either."

"I did, but still -"

"I will not contribute to the delinquency of a minor, no matter how long Severus holds back sex." Draco whispered. Harry couldn't help but chuckle as he drew forward the next child.

"I WANT A TRANSFORMER FOR CHRISTMAS!!" the kid shouted directly in Draco's ear. Draco looked at Harry, whose face was bright red with suppressed laughter.

"You. Owe. Me." Draco growled.

The seventh thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me: The Salvation Army.

"And just why are we doing this again?" Draco wondered as he skirted around dozens of boxes that had been stacked in their attic. Harry blew dust off one such box and sneezed.

"Because we don't need any of this stuff anymore." Severus replied, handing Harry a handkerchief.

"But it's my stuff, why should I give it to some dirty little orphan who probably won't take care of it properly?" Draco scowled. Harry looked up at him sharply, pain in his eyes.

"I'm one of those 'dirty little orphans', Draco. I can't believe you just said that." Harry whispered, hurt.

"Harry-" But Harry brushed by him, leaving him and Severus alone in the attic.

"After all that Harry has been through, you say the one thing guaranteed to hurt him the most. I cannot believe you, Draco." Severus said, disappointment coloring his tone.

"I didn't mean it, you know that."

"Then you also know why this charity function is important to Harry!" Severus snapped.

"I suppose you're mad at me, too." Draco sighed. Severus sat down next to Draco on the dusty floor and pulled him close.

"I'm not mad at you. I'm mad over the fact that after all we've been through to be together, all the battles we've fought, you still can't let your heart go."

"Someone once told me I don't have a heart." Draco stated.

"Do you love me?" Severus wondered. Draco looked at him, startled.

"Of course I do."

"Do you love Harry?"

"Yes."

"How do you know, Draco?" Severus asked. Draco stared at him, unsure how to answer. Severus saw this in his eyes and nodded. He got to his feet, dusting himself off. "When you know the answer, only then will your heart decide." Severus turned and left the room.

The fifth thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me: Five months of bills!

Draco stared at the roll of parchment that seemed to stretch from one end of the house to another.

"What's this, then?" he wondered, proud of the fact that his voice was calm.

"A list of things I bought for the orphanages and Hogwarts." Harry told him, checking something on the parchment to the items in the large box on the floor.

"And what, exactly, did you buy for the little tykes?"

"Clothes, toys, a couple of Christmas trees, lights, stockings, four large Christmas hams..." As Harry rattled off his extremely large list, Draco clenched his fist at his sides and counted backward from seven million...in Swahili.

An hour later...

"...new cauldrons, potions supplies, new Quidditch gear, brooms, new tables for the Great Hall, and dinnerware." Harry finished, "You're angry."

Draco let out a slow steady breath, "I'm not angry. I'm just wondering why you felt the need to buy it all at once."

"Because it's Christmas and I wanted to. I never had a lot when I was younger and now that I have so much, I want to give back to the very people who accepted me, made me feel like I belonged here."

"Sounds like a good reason to me." Severus nodded.

"You okay with this?" Harry wondered. Draco saw the saddened look in his lover's eyes and felt his heart melt. He smiled and pulled Harry into his arms.

"It's fine, Harry."

"Thanks, love." Harry whispered in his ear.

The sixth thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me: facing the in-laws...

Draco bit back the words that wanted to escape when he stepped out of the floo. All he could see was a room full of red hair and freckles. One of the twins (and it galled him to no end he still couldn't tell them apart after all these years) instantly latched on to his leg and wouldn't let go.

"Merry Christmas, Uncle Draco." the little ball of energy smiled up at him.

In for a knut... "Merry Christmas, Charity." Draco replied. The 6-year old girl clinging to his leg smiled widely at him, revealing two missing teeth.

"You remembered my name this time!" He bent down and pulled the littlest Weasley into his arms.

"Well so I did. And where is your sister?"

"Serenity took Uncle Harry into the back to show him her new broom. Grandma Molly said we could try them out tomorrow."

"Draco! You made it!" exclaimed Molly, coming into the kitchen. She took Charity from him and shooed her into the living room before taking Draco's things and shoving a glass of eggnog into his hands. He set it down quickly when she wasn't looking and waded his way through the sea of Red to join his partners near the warm fire beside the Christmas tree.

This may be the best Christmas yet, if I'm starting to tolerate The Weasleys. Draco thought to himself as he pulled Harry into his arms. Harry smiled at him and rested his head on Draco's shoulder as the soft sounds of a Christmas melody filtered from the wireless.

The third thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me: Hangovers...

"Draco, you need to get up. You'll be late for work." a voice whispered in his ear. Draco groaned and turned his head toward the speaker, regretting it not a moment later when a herd of dragons began doing the Can-Can in his head.

"Am I dead?" he moaned.

"No, but you should be after all that eggnog you drank last night. Didn't I warn you George always spikes it with vodka?" Draco cracked open an eye and stared at Harry and Severus, both of whom had amused smirks on their faces.

"Just kill me," Draco told them, "I could use a Hangover potion right now."

"Hermione took the last of it for Ron and I haven't had a chance to brew more. You'll have to cure it the muggle way." Severus told him smugly. Draco looked at him, stunned, as Harry set a large glass on the bedside table.

"Tomato juice and hot sauce. Will definitely cure what ails you. Who wants steak and eggs?" Harry asked. Draco turned green and bolted for the bathroom.

The fourth thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me: Sending Christmas Cards...

"Oh this is beyond ridiculous!" Draco exclaimed, staring at the pile of cards covering every available surface of their living room.

"You promised you'd help me." Harry pouted.

"I promised to help you send Christmas cards to a few select people! Not the whole bloody wizarding community!"

"There are muggle ones here as well." Severus stated from his desk where he was tackling a stack of cards from former Hogwarts staff and students.

Harry scowled at him, "Fine, if you aren't going to help you can sleep in the guest room tonight."

After a moment of silence, Draco shuffled over to the chair across the desk that Harry was using and picked up an unsealed envelope.

"Can I at least use magic?"

"No." Harry told him, "Get licking."

"I'd rather be licking anything but envelopes right now." Draco muttered, thinking he hadn't been heard.

"That can be arranged. I believe our former Minister Fudge needs his arse shined." Severus stated, getting angry on Harry's behalf. Severus was getting sick of Draco's general whining and upsetting Harry. Draco's face flushed red and he silently began licking envelopes.

Hours later...

"Hear that, Harry?" Severus asked. Harry looked up at him.

"What's that?"

"Blessed silence." Severus smiled, pointedly looking at Draco. Draco scowled at them both.

"I warned you not to lick your lips after all those envelopes. Not my fault your lips glued shut." Harry laughed. Draco turned his glare up another notch, which had no effect on Harry. Harry waved his wand to clean Draco's face and proceeded to snog him senseless. Draco forgot his anger after that, "Thank you for helping me."

"You're welcome." Draco smiled, still dazed from the kiss.

Maybe this won't be so bad, if it keeps putting a smile on his face. Draco thought to himself...

The first thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me, is finding a Christmas tree...

They had been wandering the lot of trees for what seemed like hours.

"Severus, I'm freezing! Why can't I use a heating charm?" Draco complained for the thousandth time. Severus had to clamp down on the urge to hex him.

"Because we promised Harry we wouldn't." Severus growled.

"This sucks." Draco whined.

"Don't be childish." Severus sighed, rolling his eyes when he caught Draco sticking his tongue out.

Harry ran toward them, eyes sparkling, face flushed with the cold and excitement.

"I found it!" he grinned, grabbing Draco's hand.

"S'about bloody time." Draco muttered. Severus could only shake his head as he followed his partners...

The second thing at Christmas that's such a pain to me: Rigging up the lights...

"Why the hell aren't these lights blinking?" Draco complained later that evening. Severus felt his inner temperature go for mildly annoyed to slow-simmering rage.

"The flasher light is blown, hang on a minute." Harry stated, digging through a packet of spare bulbs he'd purchased. He quickly located the darkened bulb and changed it, grinning with delight when the lights began their twinkling right away. "I'm going to check on the popcorn. Think you can handle those lights?"

"Got it covered. How hard can it be?" Draco replied. Harry kissed Draco's cheek as he got to his feet, rubbing Severus's shoulder as he passed on his way to the kitchen.

"Draco you don't know what you're doing, do you?" Severus asked once Harry was out of earshot. Draco pulled out his wand.

"Easy as pie." Draco smirked.

"You promised." Severus reminded him.

"I hate muggles." Draco grumbled, stashing his wand away...

When Harry returned to the living room, he nearly bit his tongue in half to prevent himself from laughing at the sight he was now witness to.

Draco had tried hanging the lights on the tree and had gotten himself tangled up in the cords.

Severus, stoic man that he was famous for being, had no such qualms and was practically laying on the floor with laughter.

With a flick of his hand, Harry freed his lover, a small smile on his face.

"Fine! You're so bloody smart, you put up these lights!" Draco growled at Severus before storming away.

"Severus!" Harry sighed.

"I'll get him." he chuckled, wiping tears of mirth from his eyes. Harry laughed and went back into the kitchen, knowing Severus would calm Draco down...



The third and fourth things coming next time...

1.

Andras, Supreme Ruler of the Kingdom of the Four Lances, stared at the paper in his hand, a frown on his face and fear in his heart. He looked at the person that delivered the news to him.

"Are you sure of this?" he asked, his voice betraying nothing.

"As sure as I am of the sun rising in the morn, My Lord." came the smooth reply. Andras took a moment to think.

"And what of the messenger?"

"Dead, My Lord. A necessary thing, I assure you."

"I see."

"What shall we do, My Lord? The princess must be protected at all costs, if this note is to be believed."

"Call the Council. I will meet with them in a few hours to get their opinions."

"As you wish." the man bowed and turned to leave.

"And Akor?" Andras called. The man known as Akor turned to look back.

"Tell no one of this. Secrecy is of the utmost importance."

"As you will it, Sire." Akor bowed and left. If anyone had been looking at him then, they would have wondered about the smirk firmly planted on his face.
