Excerpt from Ties That Bind - Chapter 14 "Lucius, I don't know what you thought you'd accomplish with this meeting, but it is evident that you did not," Snape looked apologetic yet protective.
"Severus, I beg you, please give this note to Draco after he has processed this failed attempt at reconciliation. I have made two big mistakes in life. My relationship with Draco was one," Lucius looked crestfallen, "My relationship with you was the other."
Severus' eyes lifted to Lucius'. "I'll give him the letter." The headmaster took the parchment and exited.
