Platinum Working Guys at Hotel California

Every time I write, I can't help but explode the word count...

If you think I am too wordy, tell me... I will change the narrative method.

-◆◇◆-

For the first time since Daniel's cabin was built, there was such a stiff and serious atmosphere. If the antelope head on the wall was still conscious, it would probably want to run away at this moment.

Draco leaned against the wall with his arms folded, and looked at the four people sitting around the dining table in a leisurely manner, which had almost turned into a battlefield without gunpowder smoke.

After entering the door, Livia and Helen didn't say a word, but sometimes the power of silence is much more daunting than a big fight.

Helen naturally put all her attention on her lover Daniel.Her eye sockets were unbelievably red, but she still bit her lip, showing a strong look of holding back tears.She kept staring at Daniel, the affection and grievance in her eyes were enough to make Dementor cry.And Daniel completely lost the feeling of a reliable strong man that he usually has. Like a primary school student, he lowered his head and put his hands neatly on his knees.His Adam's apple slid up and down nervously, and he didn't dare to look at Helen at all.

Old Tonya had been staring directly at Draco with complaining, burning eyes, but before he could kill anyone with his eyes, Levi, who didn't cry, make trouble, or ask questions Ya completely suppressed.Livia, on the other hand, allowed Draco to fully appreciate the true meaning of "every woman has a thousand kinds of smiling faces"—her smiling face was the same as usual, but it could no longer remind people of the sunshine in California.Livia just kept looking directly into old Tonya's eyes with a smile, until all the emotions in it were turned into guilt and self-blame.

Draco was like a bad-hearted spectator, enjoying the annual show in front of him.The dizziness and weakness brought about by the magic power overdraft can't affect his current good mood, even because his heart is full of comfort and joy, he must work hard to control the curvature of the corners of his mouth, so as to prevent himself from being in this serious atmosphere. Laugh out loud.At this moment, he couldn't help thinking of a sentence that Lucius had said to him, and he deeply agreed with it——

Women are the most powerful spell Merlin has ever created.

What a great conclusion!Draco applauded his father inwardly.

The silence that was suffocating to some, but also refreshing to someone, was broken when one of Helen's tears finally fell down her eye socket.That teardrop seemed like a huge boulder, hitting Daniel almost jumped out of his chair.

"Hai... Helen!" Daniel was so flustered that his face turned red.

"We've been together for almost 15 years, Daniel." Helen's voice trembled, "I always thought I was the person who knew you best in the world."

"Merlin! Of course you are the one who knows me best!" Daniel shouted.

"Merlin? What's that? God, you make me feel like a stranger right now."

Daniel's face turned from red to white, and he looked at old Tonya helplessly, but found that he was also in danger.

"I'm sorry, I want to leave for a while." Helen choked with sobs, got up and walked to the bedroom.

"Helen!...Tonya, I will leave Livia to you." Daniel hurried after her and entered the door together with Helen.

"Then what about you, Uncle Tonya?" Livia asked abruptly, scaring old Tonya into a shiver.

"I... I'm sorry, little Livia."

"I think," Draco, the little bastard who had seen enough drama, finally said quietly, "Although Livia feels extremely wronged because she was cheated by the person she trusted the most, it is not her who apologizes." want."

"Shut up! You little poisonous snake who gloats at other people's misfortune!" Old Tonya waved his fist furiously.

"Okay, I'll ask one last question." Draco shrugged with a smile, "Are you really not going to tell her that Livia is a wizard?"

"Me? . . . a wizard?"

Livia's smile was completely broken, and she looked at Old Tonya suspiciously.Old Tonya faltered and didn't know how to speak.

"I think so, Livia. You, me, this crazy old Tonya, and Daniel, we're all wizards. So was your mother, if I'm right—or maybe your father? I don't know what old Tonya is hiding from you, or how much he's hiding from you, but—"

"Enough!" Old Tonya interrupted Draco angrily, "Stop provoking, you evil Slytherin!" He looked at Livia who was full of doubts, and said slowly: " Actually, there's nothing I can't tell you... I'm just going to... well, wait until Voldemort is dead... but..." He sighed, "Well, it's a long story."

Old Tonya raised his head, and his eyes, which were always shining with a kind smile, became sharp and serious——

"It starts in the winter of 1979, before Voldemort disappeared—"

-◆◇◆-

The London wizarding world in 1979, like now, was shrouded in the battle between black and white wizards.At that time, Voldemort was in full swing, and many powerful noble wizards gathered around him.And among the members of the Order of the Phoenix at that time, there were many names that are now forgotten, such as the old Tonya, Tonya Bieber, Daniel, and Edgar Burns.

Edgar is one of the founders of the Order of the Phoenix, and the Burns family is also the backbone of the Order of the Phoenix.Bones contributed a lot to the Order of the Phoenix's fight against Voldemort and the Death Eaters at that time.

It seems that in addition to pain, war can also germinate love.Just in the winter of 1979, the great leader of the Order of the Phoenix ushered in his own romance.Edgar met a lovely Hufflepuff girl named Livia Smith.The two quickly fell in love.

However, love in times of war seems to have gone through ups and downs.Voldemort and the Death Eaters attack Edgar and Livia's home - Edgar is killed and Livia is nowhere to be found.At that time, everyone thought that she was also dead.

Time flies, time to 1981.In October of that year, Lily Potter defeated Voldemort with love, and the first confrontation between black and white wizards that had lasted for a long time came to an end.Voldemort disappeared, and the wizarding world finally ushered in the long-lost peace.After the war, everything was in vain. Some people stayed in England to rebuild their homes;

-◆◇◆-

"So, Daniel and I left the Order of the Phoenix and London. He went to France and started his world tour; and I found this lovely town, hiding my name. Not long after, Daniel brought Helen to find me, We also made a home here. At that time we really thought that everything was over—Voldemort is dead, the war is far away, and we will be like those happy Muggles here, far away from the wizarding world and the smoke of war." After finishing, Old Tonya sighed and fell silent.

"But, the story isn't over yet, is it?" Livia's voice was dry.

"Yes—you're right. A few years later, I went back to England to visit relatives, and in a small town, I saw people I thought I would never see again in my life..."

"Livia Smith?" Livia choked up, "My... mother?"

"Yes, yes...I'm so sorry, little Livia. She was nowhere to be seen and we all thought she was dead! But she escaped—with you, escaped. The Death Eaters The hunt and the bumpy pregnancy and childbirth nearly destroyed her health, and when I met her she was weak...very weak. After she heard that I was living in America, she handed you over to me to put You take away..."

-◆◇◆-

"Take her away, Tonya. Let her leave London and protect her well." Livia Smith hugged her sleeping daughter, tears streaming down her face, but still uttered this painful request.

"Why? Livia?" Tonya was puzzled, "The mysterious man has disappeared! What are you afraid of? You should go back to London! Although Daniel and I have left, Amelia has entered the Ministry of Magic. Lido is still in the wizarding world too, you guys can get the best care! Why don't you contact us?...Look at you now...Look at... how heartbroken Edgar will be! You are his favorite people!"

"I know—I know!" Livia cried bitterly, "but I can't go back...I can't!"

"What are you afraid of? Livia? What are you afraid of?"

"Don't ask, Tonya. Please, take her away! I put magic patterns on her body. As long as I don't untie them, no one will know that she is a little wizard. Take her to the United States and make her a A happy Muggle girl..."

"Livia..."

"Forget everything!" Livia suddenly took out her wand and chanted a curse at her sleeping daughter.The spell seemed to take the last of her strength, and she struggled to hand the little girl into Tonya's arms, uttering a mother's last request: "Take her away, Tonya. Please..."

"I still don't understand, why?"

"You will understand later. Nothing is over, Tonya," Livia's eyes full of tears looked tenderly at the daughter in Tonya's arms, "Nothing is over. Give her a new name, give her A new identity...if you will...give this to her when it's really over and tell her mom and dad love her...love her the most..."

-◆◇◆-

"That's it," Old Tonya wiped away his tears fiercely, and looked at Livia with red eyes, "I brought you here and named you Livia—the same name as your mother, and I will take care of you with Daniel You...have lied to you for so many years." Tonya took out a necklace from her bosom, on which was a cute little badger made of gold, "This is what your mother left you, and I have been wearing it for so many years. I I'm sorry, but little Livia, your mother loves you very much, and so do I."

Draco, who had heard the whole story, bowed his head and remained silent.The sacrifices of members of the Order of the Phoenix didn't make him empathize, but Livia's life-and-death separation from his parents made him feel ache in his heart—he thought of his parents.Livia Smith, who sent her daughter away, was more like Narcissa, who sent her child far away from her side and resisted all the suffering alone.And what is the difference between the evil and cruel Death Eater Lucius Malfoy in the Order of the Phoenix and their hero Edgar Burns?In the hearts of Draco and Narcissa, Lucius is their heaven, their reliance, and the most competent husband and father in their eyes.

The thoughts of his parents welled up in his mind, intertwined with the weakness caused by the magic overdraw, making Draco dizzy for a while.

"So you have always called me little Livia all these years? Because I have the same name as my mother?" Livia took the necklace and held it tightly in her hand, "You should have told me earlier, Uncle Tonya. "

"I'm sorry, little Livia." Old Tonya couldn't get the word sorry out of his mouth. He looked at Livia sincerely and explained: "I didn't understand what Livia said at the time, I thought She's because she's going to... think you'd be happier if you forgot about her and hiding as a kid. And, wizard or something, I'm afraid if it comes out of my mouth, you'll just think I'm talking nonsense again trouble you."

Old Tonya curled his lips and put on an aggrieved expression that didn't match the atmosphere.But this expression made Livia's tightly wrinkled face relax a little. She smiled and agreed: "Very good conclusion, Uncle Tonya. But, later on, you found out that's not the case, right? That's why Why is Draco showing up?"

"You're right, little Livia," Old Tonya frowned, "Just a few years ago, the mysterious man came back, and only then did I understand why your mother said that everything was not over. These In [-], I told you that when I visited my sister, I actually went back to the Order of the Phoenix to meet Dumbledore—Dumbledore is a great white wizard, he leads the Order of the Phoenix, and is also the headmaster of Hogwarts—as for Hogwarts, It's the Big Four—Merlin!—the meaning of Merlin..."

"Okay, Uncle Tonya." Livia couldn't cry anymore after Tonya almost passed out, she said helplessly, "Forget those nouns! So, why did Draco come here? "

"Dumbledore sent someone to bring him, and let Daniel and I take care of him temporarily."

"I'm afraid I haven't received your care." Draco said coldly.

"You little white-eyed wolf! I saved you in the sea! I even gave you a potion! And Daniel let you eat so much smoked fish for nothing!"

"Okay, Uncle Tonya!" Livia raised her forehead, "Instead of bickering, I think you can tell Draco his parents? Judging by his appearance, he is probably the same as me before today. In the dark."

Draco looked at Livia, her expression was very natural, as if it was normal for Draco to ask about these things.

"They're fine." Tonya didn't want to talk about Malfoy, but he didn't dare to refute Livia, so he hummed angrily: "Lucius has gone home, and now he and Narcissa are helping us in the mysterious Cooperate - that's a good way to say it! This sinister viper has only chosen a path in its own favour! Damned Slytherin!"

"Cooperation—it's just a whitewashed take on what you need. I guess, the Order of the Phoenix also benefits a lot from it?"

"Draco, Uncle Tonya, can you stop bickering?" Livia sighed and stood up.

"I think I have to disappoint you, dear lady." Draco sneered at old Tonya: "He and I come from two incompatible houses—Gryffindor and Sledge Lin, the nature bestowed by Merlin makes it impossible for us to live in harmony."

"Really," Livia shrugged nonchalantly, and walked towards Draco, "But your childish bickering makes me feel like you are awkward children who don't know how to express friendliness to each other."

"...very rich imagination, but unfortunately, what you said is completely wrong." Draco stared at Livia and gritted his teeth.

"Okay," Livia patted Draco, "You have been pale since just now, I guess you are not feeling well now?"

Draco, who never thought he would be seen through his weakness, was out of words.

"Don't hold on. It's getting late, while you still have some strength, let's go home quickly." Livia walked straight out of the house, "I don't want you to faint and let me carry you back!"

"Little Livia!" Old Tonya stood up in a panic, and called Livia's name helplessly, but didn't know what to say, so he could only rub his fingers uneasily.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Tonya, and please tell Daniel these words for me. I know you must have been miserable all these years, and I know you and Daniel are here to protect me, and you really took good care of me. I thank you very much, but..."

Livia turned her back to Old Tonya and sighed: "But, I need some time."

The author has something to say: Dangdangdang~~~ This is still a manuscript box~~~~~~~~~~~

Livia bug's many bloody life experiences revealed orz.

In case someone doesn't know Bones, post their profile here.

Edgar Bones: One of the founders of the Order of the Phoenix.Edgar Bones was a very good wizard who was killed by Voldemort before he disappeared for the first time.In the early days of Voldemort's powerful power, the Burns family was one of the most powerful families.

And Amelia mentioned in this chapter is Edgar's sister——

Amelia Bones: Amelia Bones makes a brief appearance in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter 7, "The Ministry of Magic".

According to the description in the novel, Amelia Bones should be a very talented wizard, [the original book describes a broad figure and a square jaw.He has short gray hair and wears a monocle. ] At that time, she was already the director of the Department of Magical Law Enforcement, but unfortunately she was killed by Voldemort in the sixth book.

Amelia Bones wasn't the only Burns family member to die at the hands of the Dark wizard, her older brother Edgar Bones lost his life the last time Voldemort came to power.

The original book has very little to say about the Burns family, so it has been brought up in a hurry. Of course, it doesn't mention the time and age of Edgar's sacrifice. Therefore, the time in the article is nonsense.As for the age, I got it through his niece, Susan Bones (Hufflepuff, D.A Club members appeared in "Order of the Phoenix" and the branch) and Harry and Draco are in the same grade Inferred, it should be similar to the parents of the parent generation?So it shouldn't be too strange that his daughter is the same age as Draco...?

If the bug is too big, please pat………………………

In short, Livia is not a Muggle, nor is she a Squib. ╮(╯▽╰)╭

Based on my shallow understanding of Malfoy, even if Draco loves Livia again in the future, he will not allow himself to let a Muggle become Malfoy.I have always felt that every Malfoy regards the honor of the family much more than himself, and this also applies to all great nobles. (In other words, my initial setting was that Livia was a Muggle, and then the two had no choice but to separate... I will write it as an irresponsible side story in the future.)

The next chapter has a second moon talk between a shocked Livia and Draco.The two are going to tear off their fake identities and start to get to know each other really, please look forward to it~~~~~~~~~

Please leave a lot of comments~Favorite~~~~
