[HP] just lover

Vanessa's words were like a death curse, hitting Lucius hard.

He had thought she would at least be there for him while he lay in wait for the Dark Lord's side for their future.

He knew that one day he would give her a legitimate identity, even if that day might have to wait patiently, and a deadline could not be calculated, but he was working hard for their future, that day would always come, couldn't she just wait? ?

Of course, he never told her to wait, and Vanessa couldn't be blamed for her reaction.

But even though he didn't say it, couldn't she feel his feelings?Is she a rock?Can't cover the heat?

He was married, but he hadn't touched Narcissa until now, and he would never consider it unless he had to give birth to an heir for the Malfoy family.

Since he was a child, until now, he has only had her as a woman.

Vanessa seemed to see his emotions, and after a little struggle, she broke away from his grip on her wrist.

She rubbed her sore wrist, and said after a while: "That's your own choice, Lucius. You chose your family and interests, you got married, and you will have children worthy of Malfoy in the future." The heir of the family, and teach your children with your wife. In your future plan, even if you think about me, it is in the distant future." She turned her head and said with a smile, "How can you Why do you think that I will violate morality for you and become a mistress that everyone looks down on, a third party, and then when I am no longer young, bear the reputation of being a mistress, and finally win a reputation with you?"

Vanessa stood up, turned her eyes away and said, "I don't want to live that kind of life." She picked up the portkey, stared at the patterns on it and said, "I don't want to live a shameful life in my best years, I also want to stand beside others in an open and honest manner, and you shouldn't think that I love you, so I have to pay for you. Lucius, it's all your own choice, your own choice."

……

She was right.

It was all his choice.

He also couldn't ask Vanessa to sacrifice her remaining dignity and stay by his side just because he had done something for Vanessa.He probably wouldn't be happy then.

In fact, even if he chooses to betray Voldemort and turn to Dumbledore, Lucius' choice is not entirely because of Vanessa.

That was one of the retreats he had prepared long ago when he realized that following Voldemort would no longer gain any benefits, and would even destroy the Malfoy family.

It's just that the existence of Vanessa made him more determined to choose this retreat.

He has a lot of retreats, such as waiting until the Dark Lord seeks his own death, using the Imperius Curse as an excuse, spending a little money, and settling the trial.

It sounds like it's safer, he just needs to lie dormant and wait, but this road will take a long time, let's say a few years, let's say more than ten years, he knows that he doesn't have that much patience, and he can't let Fanny go all the time Sarah is in danger.

So he chose the most dangerous way to retreat, to be a spy and cooperate with Dumbledore. This road seems to be difficult and dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will be doomed, but the benefits it brings are also huge.

At some point, he might even become a hero of the wizarding world.

Fame, interests, and danger are directly proportional to the degree of danger. He really can't narrowly impose his choice on a girl and ask her to do something in return.

Lucius gradually calmed down.

He looked at Vanessa who was about to leave, and said in a cold tone: "Then, let's change the subject." He raised the corner of his mouth, revealing what Vanessa didn't want to reveal the most, "— Sirius Black and Mrs. Wilson Meet, so what's going on?"

coming.

It finally came.

I thought I could get away with it, but it doesn't seem to work.

Vanessa turned her head, looked at Lucius and said, "Do you still need to ask me? You should have seen it all."

Lucius smiled strangely, and said after a long time: "But I still hope you will tell me yourself."

Unexpectedly, Vanessa directly met his request: "I showed Sirius the letter you wrote to me after you got married, and he wanted to help me persuade Roxy to come back to me. There is no other good way, just let him try."

It turned out they were all clear.

Sirius successfully persuaded Roxie, and Roxie agreed to return to Vanessa, and the mother and daughter lived together.

But it was also because of this that Roxy was killed.

Lucius walked slowly to Vanessa, looked down at her, and said coldly, "You think Sirius Black has no responsibility in this matter?" He lowered his voice, "Once something happened to Mrs. Wilson, You came to question me, but what about him? Because he is at Hogwarts, is it not convenient for you to blame him? It doesn't matter, I can help you, I am the director of Hogwarts, you want to do it there whatever."

Vanessa frowned and corrected his statement: "That has nothing to do with Sirius, I promised him to let him see Roxy. I didn't think carefully and didn't realize her danger, which led to her death .Do you have to bring this up again and again to make me feel guilty? Do you want me to live in this mood for the rest of my life?"

Lucius looked at her expressionlessly, without saying a word, Vanessa held the port key and said, "I'm leaving, Christmas is coming soon, I wish Mr. Malfoy a happy day, I won't disturb you again during this time, goodbye."

After the words fell, her figure disappeared in front of him.

Lucius reached out, only touching the thin air where she had just stood.

"More than."

Lucius withdrew his hand and spoke indifferently, and Dobby soon appeared beside him.

"Master." Dobby's big eyes were filled with tears, obviously, he knew what he was about to face.

"Why didn't you tell me that Mrs. Wilson met Sirius Black in private?" Lucius asked mildly, but it made Dobby even more frightened.

Dobby stood there tremblingly, not daring to speak, Lucius' expression gradually turned cold, and Dobby was terrified and terrified.

"Say."

Lucius ordered with careless words, and Dobby couldn't help but started hitting the floor, crying and saying, "It's Dobby who is useless! Dobby was threatened by Mrs. Wilson and Mr. Black! They said that if Dobby didn't If you keep it a secret, you will tell Mr. Malfoy that Dobby made a mistake! Dobby didn't take good care of Mrs. Wilson! Dobby, Dobby didn't complete the master's explanation!"

Lucius looked annoyed at Dobby who kept hurting himself. That small wound was nothing to an elf. He picked up his wand and uttered a spell cruelly. As the oldest pure-blooded nobleman, the Malfoy family There are many house-elves, and they also master many spells specially used to control and hurt house-elves. Dobby screamed in fear and rolled on the ground. Lucius just looked at it, with not a little bit of magic on his handsome and noble face. There is no color of pity.

Time passed little by little.

Vanessa goes to work in St. Mungo's on time every day.

She was extremely tough in front of Lucius that day, but after returning home, she had been sleepless for several nights, but she couldn't really calm down.

On the one hand, she was worried that Lucius would tell Sirius about Roxy and use it to hurt him.

On the other hand, she wondered if she had hurt Lucius in this matter.

Her concern and care for Sirius seemed to be far more than for Lucius.

He should feel this unfairness, but why?When did it start?

Around the time Vanessa realized that Lucius had the same feelings for her as she did.

Although he never said it, Vanessa wasn't really a rock after all, she could feel it.

The difference between her treatment of Lucius and Sirius is that she has the same feelings for Lucius in her heart - she loves Lucius, so she doesn't need to feel that she owes him too much, but Sirius is different.

Vanessa can't give him any emotional return, so she can only give in other ways.

Lucius probably wouldn't understand her conflicted mood.

Putting away the wand and covering the comatose patient with a quilt, Vanessa turned to leave.

St. Mungo's will also have a holiday at Christmas, but the hospital needs people on duty, so it is a holiday system.

She was lucky enough to have two days off on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day, and was preparing to go home from get off work to spend her lonely Christmas Eve.

She did not expect that she would meet Dumbledore at the door of the department.

Vanessa looked at the old headmaster in surprise, hesitated before saying, "Principal Dumbledore, are you here to find Therapist Mason? He's inside, do you need me to call him out for you?"

Dumbledore wore a purple wizard robe and half-moon glasses, no different from when he was at Hogwarts.

He showed a kind smile to Vanessa, and said softly: "No need, child. In fact, I'm here to find you."

Vanessa stood there in a daze for a moment, with surprise on her face: "Looking for me?" She smiled, "What can the principal ask me for? We don't seem to have any relationship. I'm just an ordinary intern therapist, so I should Can't help you."

Dumbledore blinked and said softly: "First of all, I would like to express my condolences to you for Mrs. Wilson's death, child, she did not die in vain. In addition - you should know why I came to you. I can call you Vanessa? I know Green is not your original last name."

Vanessa's expression froze for a moment, and she said after a while: "Of course. But, we'd better talk about it in another place, principal."

Dumbledore smiled and held out his hand to her. Vanessa was silent for a while, then put her hand up, and the moment they touched Dumbledore, they Apparated to an empty, quiet place.

It should still be here in St. Mungo's, but there was no one around. Vanessa glanced around and gradually felt relieved.

"You came here for Mr. Malfoy, am I right?" Vanessa took the initiative to break the silence, and she never thought that she could hide the truth from the greatest white wizard of this century, even though she faced Dumbledore Still a little nervous.

"Yes, Vanessa. I thought it was necessary for me to thank you personally, so I came here." Dumbledore spoke with a smile, like a gentle elder, he could easily make people let their guard down, Vanessa's little nervousness gradually disappeared.

"Why should you thank me?" Vanessa pretended to be silly.

Dumbledore didn't mind her knowingly asking, and said tolerantly: "I think it's not without reason that Lucius is willing to change his team. You are responsible for this, so of course I want to thank you. Dear Vanessa, With the addition of Lucius, we are more confident in dealing with the Dark Lord, and you really did me a big favor."

In fact, even Vanessa herself didn't dare to seriously think about it. She brought up the matter about the Dark Lord in front of Lucius again and again, implying what purpose he had when he had to make a choice.

She was unwilling to think deeply before, deliberately avoided, and lied to herself, as if she could continue to live a simple life.But Dumbledore spelled it out, forcing Vanessa to face up to her dark, unknown plans.

Time and time again, she played up her own danger and hatred in front of Lucius, expressed her dependence and fear, showed her hatred and opposition to the Dark Lord, and forced him to make a choice. leading him.

She is destined not to be able to touch the Dark Lord, and she may even kill herself because she approached beyond her limits, but she doesn't want to sit still, she can't forgive herself, and she can't forgive the Dark Lord, she wants revenge, hatred drives her... Drives She used Lucius.

Lucius is the best choice.

He is the controller of the Malfoy family, and he is the most trusted person of the Dark Lord. He can contact the Dark Lord anytime, anywhere, and understand all his most central plans, which means that he can destroy it as long as he wants. Everything about the Dark Lord.

Vanessa never thought that one day she would be so scheming to design and use the man she loves the most.

She tightened her pale lips, looked at Dumbledore who seemed to see through everything, and said mockingly: "I really didn't get assigned to the wrong house, right, Principal Dumbledore."

Dumbledore stepped forward, put his hand on the girl's head, and said softly, "You did nothing wrong, Vanessa. You chose the right path, for him and for yourself. I have to admit, Lu When Hughes first found me, I couldn't trust him. But later, I saw love in his eyes, and I believe that people with such feelings are trustworthy."

Vanessa said distraughtly: "The right way? For him, but also for myself?"

Dumbledore nodded slightly and smiled to comfort her, but Vanessa didn't listen at all.

What the right way.

She just led Lucius on a road of espionage full of hardships and thorns. For her hatred, she pretended to be for Lucius, but she was actually pushing him to death. It is certain that the Dark Lord will not find out about Lucius' betrayal. Once he notices, what will happen to Lucius, Vanessa dare not even think about it.

"I wish you a Merry Christmas, Principal." Vanessa smiled far-fetchedly and said, "If there is nothing else, I will leave first. Today is Christmas Eve. I hope you have a pleasant night."

Of course Dumbledore wouldn't stop her.

In fact, his purpose of coming here has already been achieved.

He didn't even need Legilimency to see all his conjectures confirmed.

He has 100% trust in Lucius at this moment, because even if he doesn't believe in his feelings for Vanessa, he still has to believe in the hatred in Vanessa's heart.

With a final nod to Dumbledore, Vanessa turned away from St. Mungo's and fled home almost in embarrassment.

Like she said to Dumbledore, she hadn't been put into the wrong house, had she?

Vanessa slowly sat down on the chair, stared at the empty room, spread her palms, picked up the cup on the table, and turned it into an apple.

"Happy Christmas Eve," she said to herself.

Malfoy Manor.

The house elves have already decorated the manor with a new look, and the Christmas atmosphere surrounds the people who live here, but they don't feel the slightest festive joy.

Narcissa sat across the long table and said while eating: "Are you busy recently? I can hardly see you staying at home."

Lucius said without raising his head, "His Royal Highness the Duke of Darkness needs me to do something."

Narcissa paused for a while before raising her head and saying, "Lucius, I know you probably don't want to hear what I say, but I still want to say it." She turned her head and looked to the side, "Although I don't know what you are saying. What are you doing, but as the most trusted person of the Duke of Darkness, you must not go astray."

Lucius raised his head slowly, staring at his wife across the long table: "What do you want to say?"

Narcissa said: "I know that Mrs. Wilson is dead. You protected her well enough. If she didn't leave without authorization, nothing would happen."

"So what." Lucius said calmly.

Narcissa continued: "I think this incident probably brought a big blow to your precious lover. She must be very sad. Mother died tragically at the hands of the Dark Lord—would she ask you for revenge?"

smart woman.

As expected of the Mrs. Malfoy he chose.

Lucius lowered his head again, and said flatly: "I don't want to discuss with you whether she has such a request. Let's talk about another thing, what makes you think that I will shake my loyalty to the Duke of Darkness for a mistress ?”

Narcissa looked at him and said, "I hope you don't. Although there is no emotion between us, we are bound by a rope. I am Narcissa Malfoy now. I can't watch you being used. Go away." Go the wrong way and ruin it all."

Lucius said indifferently: "What is the right way, Narcissa? Have you really seen it clearly?"

Narcissa froze, looking at him in surprise.

Lucius put down his knife and fork, stood up and said, "Happy Christmas Eve, Mrs. Malfoy, please rest assured, I value my family much more than you." He turned around and said with his cane, " Put away your unnecessary worries, control your mouth and thoughts, when facing the Duke of Darkness, you know what to do, right?"

Of course she knew.

Narcissa used to be named Black, but now her name is Malfoy, how could she hurt herself?She nodded grimly.

"That's good." Lucius moved the silver snake ring on his finger, and said with a half-smile, "Then, you can spend Christmas Eve with Hunter. He has been waiting for you for a long time, right?"

Narcissa was startled, and looked at him in surprise, that he actually knew.

Lucius looked away indifferently, and disappeared into the dining room of Malfoy Manor.

Vanessa eats an apple alone at home.

She didn't even change her uniform.

After she came back, she sat there for a long time. After eating the apple, she put the core in her hand and just stared at it.

She has always been like this in the past few days. She is very busy when she goes to work, and she starts to be in a daze when she comes back.

The sound of apparition sounded, and a black shadow cast in front of her eyes. Vanessa slowly raised her head and looked at the person in front of her unexpectedly.

"Surprised I'm here?"

Lucius raised the corners of his mouth at her, his cold gray-blue eyes were dim.

Vanessa subconsciously held the apple core in her hand, stood up slowly and said, "Yes."

Lucius turned his head, looked at the little house that hadn't changed in any way, frowned and said, "This place is still as annoying as ever."

Vanessa frowned and didn't refute. Lucius stared at her and said suddenly, "I didn't tell Black about Mrs. Wilson."

Of course this Black is not Narcissa Black, but Sirius Black.

Vanessa didn't expect Lucius to puncture her worries so directly, and she was a little at a loss.

Lucius looked at her quietly and asked her, "Has Dumbledore gone to see you?"

Thinking of the meeting in the evening, Vanessa nodded and said, "I saw him at the hospital when I got off work today."

"He must have said something, and I can almost guess what it is." Lucius stood there, dressed in gorgeous robes, with a high tone of voice, no different from the appearance of the Malfoy master when facing other people.

He will never face her with a special look again.

From now on, in front of him, she will be no different from others.

This realization made Vanessa's heart uncontrollably sour, but she didn't show it, she stood there straight and said, "Then do you have anything to say?"

Lucius looked at her: "I thought you would have something to say to me, but you actually asked me what I wanted to say?"

"I have nothing to say to you."

She didn't want to say words to explain and cover up for herself.She did that, she wanted to use him, Lucius was so smart, he must have realized that he was waiting for her to explain herself, and then he could have a reason to forgive her, but she didn't say anything.

She didn't even give him such a step.

Lucius thought he would be angry, but no.

He was extremely calm.

"Since you don't want to say anything, then I'll say it."

He opened his mouth slowly, drew out his wand, and a large square box slowly appeared on the table in front of Vanessa, covered with a red velvet cloth.

"This is for you. It's a Christmas present. It probably won't make your Christmas Eve and Christmas too lonely."

Lucius tersely finished and Apparated out of here without even giving her a chance to say "Thank you" or "Merry Christmas."

Vanessa stepped forward and lifted the red velvet, revealing a box underneath.

She pulled out her wand and let the box open automatically, and what she saw inside was a portrait.

Vanessa was stunned.

It's a portrait of Roxy.

She seemed to have fallen asleep, but she woke up after a while. She looked at Vanessa and said in a daze, "We meet here, which means I am no longer here."

Vanessa covered her mouth and cried silently.

"...At that time I was bored, so I asked Mr. Malfoy if I could draw a portrait, and he arranged it for me." Roxie said with a smile in the frame, "Look, I'm wearing a Hufflepuff uniform, isn't it interesting? Do you remember, I was a student at that house."

Vanessa nodded with a sob, and said after a long time: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. If it wasn't for me, nothing would happen to you..."

Roxy said softly, "Child, don't be stupid. It's not your fault. How could it be your fault?" Through the portrait, the mother stretched out her hand, as if she wanted to touch her, but they all knew that this was wrong. possible.

"Actually, it's good to make a portrait." Roxie smiled gently, "I'm just staying by your side in a relaxed way."

Vanessa hung Roxy's portrait in the room intended for her.

She seemed to like it here, and walked around in the portrait, looking at everything excitedly.

Vanessa watched quietly, thinking of Lucius' sudden appearance and sudden departure, he gave her such a big gift, when she treated him like that.

Although maybe even if she doesn't force or hint in words, he will choose as she thinks, but she knows that she can't be innocent, as long as she has the idea of ​​using him in her heart, no matter whether she does it or not, or It doesn't matter what effect it has.

Guilt and mistakes have already been made, and Vanessa will not regret it, but she will not forgive herself either.

She didn't know what kind of gift she should return now, to be worth such a portrait.

To be by his side, to be his mistress, to spend her youth in the dark?

She was really thinking about this choice that she had never wanted.

But there are always surprises in life.

After she wrote to Lucius telling him this, Lucius wrote only a few words in the reply.

Thanks, but I don't need it anymore - L·M

Lucius suddenly discovered that he had a conscience.

He thought his conscience was long gone.

However, when he saw Vanessa's covert letter, he found that, ah, he actually had a conscience.

His conscience told him that you have finally achieved your goal. Your almost miserable behavior made this girl finally willing to reach the original "deal" with you, but you suddenly discovered that you didn't want her to feel guilty. Stay with you without a name.

Lucius has been thinking about something Vanessa once said recently.

She was actually right.

On what grounds, who did he think he was, and what about Patriarch Malfoy?So what if she loves you and uses you?Can you reasonably ask her to sacrifice her youth for you, stand in the dark and wait for you without dignity, and be a contemptuous mistress?

Even, in the future, she will have to tolerate him having an heir with someone else.

Thinking about it in another way, if Lucius went through this, he might do terrible things.

Marry her if you can.

Since you can't do this now, don't expect what you can't get now.

He decides to give Vanessa and himself some time.

So he worked hard for a long time before writing on the back of her letter paper - "Thank you, but I don't need it anymore", such a sentence.

He will get what he wants.

But not now, and not in this way.

Lucius got dressed, picked up his cane, and headed to the Riddle Mansion.

The author has something to say: Don’t worry about whether to give Sirius a baby

The plot needs to progress for a while before this issue is involved. The biggest conflict between Lucius and the heroine (the heir) has not yet appeared

If there is a baby who wants the heroine to give birth to Draco, I have to say that Draco will become a mixed race and collapse QAQ

Malfoy's family, especially Lucius' generation, can't pass this test himself~ Plus the Dark Lord is still at risk.

If it was Draco's era, I think it might be acceptable that everything changed after the war. Having a mixed blood might stabilize Malfoy's situation (but in the original book Draco still married a pure blood until Scorpius' generation. become half-breed) so Draco must still be Mama Narcissus' baby

The heroine must not give birth to a child for revenge, that is to punish herself

If there is a relationship with Sirius, it must be that the two really want to be together. As for whether there are any children, the children will come to that chapter. Let's see the story and we will hug everyone.

In addition, I must thank everyone for reading this story so seriously. I am so happy that everyone is still watching HP today. I am super satisfied! !
