HP's Kiss of Eternity

"When he's dead, I'll go find you myself."

When Lucius raised his head because of Scorpius holding hands, and met those eyes, his body, which was gradually numb due to poisoning, seemed to find the slightest sense of touch from the depths of every corner like needle pricks.The chill started from the end of his body and crawled up Lucius' scalp bit by bit.

Malfoy never gave his trust easily.

But at this moment, seeing Scorpius' unusually calm expression, Lucius was completely shocked.

"Don't be surprised, father, I didn't come here for your property." Lucius' surprised look was no less than an encouragement to Scorpius. How much panic was created here, "Send me here, it was an order from the royal family to Aunt Lyla. The British Ministry of Magic used to be guarded by Dumbledore, and the blood clan had never had a chance to develop. They wanted me to inherit the Malfoy family and killed You, then use Malfoy, who is deeply rooted in the British wizarding world, as a springboard for the development of the blood race. Just to gain freedom from them, I agreed."

"Scorpius, how dare you reveal the secrets of the royal family?" Scorpius just said half a sentence, which completely changed Larry's face.Almost at the same time when the frightened question was blurted out, Larry strung out of the room almost instantly, "The royal family will not let you go!"

Facing Larry's words that didn't have much deterrent effect at all, Scorpius sneered and ordered the house-elf to come in and clean up the mess.

"You promised me to protect the Malfoy family." Lucius said when Scorpius turned around.

"With Potter around, the Malfoy family will not fall." Scorpius replied without any burden. "In the British wizarding world, he is stronger and more familiar than me. And you don't need to worry about his ulterior motives."

To some extent, the speechless Lucius, like the royal family of the Blood Race, miscalculated Scorpius' obsession.

Everyone scoffs at money worship, but in actual actions, everyone is equally eager for profit.Even if you don't regard interests as your life, you can't really ignore them completely.

But people are used to looking at others based on their own framework of values, and judging others by oneself here is not considerate at all.

And what Lucius didn't expect was that when he thought everything would be settled, things would develop into a completely opposite state.He had to, even had to stop Scorpius from thinking.But he, who once wanted to die, has no position at all to stop this absurd situation.

Lucius, who was speechless, subconsciously didn't want to believe Scorpius' words, until he found that Scorpius was really starting to sort out the materials to be handed over to the savior.

After that, the savior came to Malfoy Manor once, but Lucius didn't see him, and didn't know what kind of conversation Scorpius had with him.It's just that after that, the time that Scorpius spent every day dealing with the Malfoy family's property also stayed with Lucius.

It's not hard to guess to whom Scorpius lost what he had to do.But the way the savior was busy with something called Malfoy, Lucius found it unacceptable just thinking about it.

"Since they want to use you to open the gap in the British wizarding world, how can they punish you?"

"They don't dare not to execute it." Scorpius blew the food cold and brought it to Lucius's mouth, his tone was still as gentle as coaxing a child to eat, "Unless they plan to never have peace. My ability is teleportation that ignores defenses .They can't catch me unless I volunteer."

"..."

While Lucius was anxiously trying various methods of lobbying, the erosion of his vitality by the Miankong medicine became more and more obvious.

Scorpius took care of Lucius step by step, and still did not give up looking for a way to extend the time for him.But the uneasiness between his eyebrows began to be replaced by tranquility.He would even pick a good day when Lucius was rarely awake, and get Lucius, who was basically unable to walk, out of the bedroom, as if to allow him to say goodbye to this ancient manor for the last time.

This kind of life is so peaceful that it seems that even time has stood still.

Humans are actually complex creatures.

When he was constantly brewing reasons to persuade Scorpius, and stroking the very familiar ancient traces in the manor with his fingers, Lucius suddenly realized that he didn't really want to end it all.

But if the way to continue is as a vampire...

Lucius finally gave a self-deprecating smile.

******

Lucius guessed that the Italian Kindred would not ignore Scorpius' repentance.But at the same time, he also believed that, fearing the local forces in the UK, the other party did not dare to come out in full force.

It's just that neither he nor Scorpius expected that the blood royal family only sent one polite visitor in the end.

"Mr. Lucius Malfoy, nice to meet you. I am Prince Charles." After successfully gaining the trust of Scorpius, the blood prince who had a similar temperament to the blood clan Lucius had met before got a good relationship with Lucius. Hughes had a chance to talk alone, "I think you probably know the purpose of my visit this time."

"If I remember correctly, it was a trial." Scorpius' trust in Prince Charles surprised Lucius.At the same time, this also made Lucius more vigilant when responding to the other party.

"Although there is nothing wrong with saying that, I personally prefer to understand it as a conversation." Charles glanced at Scorpius, who was paying close attention to this side, with a hint of helplessness in his eyes.Such obvious temptations to details did not elicit any changes in Lucius' expression.Therefore, Charles, who actually had a more urgent mood, finally gave up his speculation about Lucius and directly explained his intentions, "Although I am the judge appointed by the royal family this time, as a person, I sincerely do not want to judge Lucius. final execution. Perhaps Scorpius mentioned to you the special significance of half-vampire blood to our race?"

"Obviously not," Lucius denied without hesitation, "and I don't think it has anything to do with me."

"Of course it is related." Charles emphasized eagerly, "and it is closely related. Since you are the person involved in this incident and the only person Scorpius values. The authority of the blood royal family cannot be violated, so there is a strict law. Law. But in reality, as leaders, we often have situations that go against the law.”

"On the contrary? It means that you don't want to carry out this trial?" Lucius immediately realized that the visitor's purpose was in the same direction as his own, but such a consensus did not have much impact on the final situation. , "I hope you don't think I can influence Scorpius' decisions."

There was a subtle tightening movement of Charles' cheeks. He thought for a while, and then asked in an uncertain tone: "Or would you be willing to accept the first embrace of a blood race, we can provide the highest prince level..."

"I think our conversation is over here." Lucius raised his voice decisively and interrupted Charles' suggestion, signaling the house elf not far away to push him away.

Probably this result did not exceed Charles' expectations, and he did not stop it.

Scorpius showed no curiosity about their unhappy conversation.After seeing Lucius' movements, he quickly stepped forward to take over the work of the house elf and re-settle Lucius into his bed.

When Scorpius left Lucius' bedroom, Charles' figure was still outside the bedroom door.Before the door closed, Lucius only had time to hear the next conversation between the two: "Are you sure you want to stick to your decision?"

The last thought that crosses Lucius's mind before he drifts off to sleep is the hope that Charles' lobbying will succeed.

In a hazy dream, Lucius dreamed of the last time he heard information about the blood race.At that time, Abraxas had not passed away, and Lucius was just an ordinary student at Hogwarts.

Abraxas came back from an extraordinary school board meeting with a rare scowled face. He said angrily to Lucius who came up to inquire: "Those damned vampires, they will be cursed by all wizards!"

There seems to be a subtle dislocation between Lucius in the dream and himself back then.When he met his father's eyes at that time, Lucius felt as if his heart skipped a beat.In the eyes of his father, Lucius could no longer hear what the subsequent words said, but felt a kind of heaviness called trembling began to pour into his limbs and submerge his body.Without warning, before his father's anger subsided, Lucius looked away and lowered his head.

The smell of dew in the garden at night drilled into Lucius' nostrils, like an invisible sigh, blowing away the thick fog that surrounded his eyes.

Struggling to blink, Lucius saw Scorpius kneeling on top of him.

"Father." Scorpius saw Lucius not at all surprised, which made the redness in his eyes seem to be full again.

Lucius, who noticed the change in Scorpius' pupil color, frowned slightly: "I thought that the prince was a lobbyist, and he wasn't going to let you fight him in the form of a vampire."

"We didn't fight, he just told me something." Scorpius suddenly approached Lucius' neck and made a sniffing motion.This made Lucius couldn't help trembling, "Do you hate me?"

"Your behavior, yes." The ups and downs between Lucius' eyebrows became more obvious, "What are you doing?"

"My behavior, not me, is it?" Scorpius pressed.

"Get off my bed."

"Do you know why the blood clan sent Prince Charles to be a lobbyist?" Scorpius raised his body slightly to give Lucius breathing room, but he still kept pressing the air above Lucius, like Preventing something.

"Given my interest in..."

"He said to me, if I can give up the trial and inherit the Malfoy family, not only can you ensure that your hard work will not be destroyed by others and cannot continue, but it will also pose a threat to the people I hate. If I don't want to kill me If the mother's people continue to be at ease, it is the fastest shortcut to grasp the door of the blood race in the British wizarding world." Scorpius abruptly interrupted Lucius' response to his question, and said briskly, "Although, there are With Malfoy Manor as a support, the blood royal family can have a fixed way to enter the UK. However, for them, this distance is not very helpful to invade the territory of the UK. But if I can be an outstanding Malfoy, let Malfoy has once again become the darling of the high society in the British wizarding world, and even entered the Ministry of Magic, gradually entering the core. Then even if the ancient blood clan guarding Britain wants to stop it, there is no reason to do so. Because I belong to the British Malfoy, Legal. Father, do you think I can do it?"

Scorpius' attitude changed suddenly, and there was a hint of fanaticism in his tone.

Lucius was very disdainful of the development process in his words, but he was aware of his emotions for the first time and restrained himself.So, he didn't respond.

"Before I left Italy, the only thing that could make me emotional was Larry. I hated him, Father, I hated that man. If it wasn't for him, I wouldn't have this complete tragedy. But he was The main target of the blood royal family, even if my blood is extremely special, I still don’t have the value to make the blood royal family give up Larry.” Scorpius smiled disdainfully, and snorted softly, “Although he is not my father at all. my opponent, but I can’t touch him. Actually, this hatred is not that important to me. If Charles hadn’t brought it up, I would have forgotten it a long time ago. It’s just that he said, if I die, Larry will be very Happy. I don't want to see this picture at all. If I can exceed his value, he will die. But like what I just said, do you think I can do it? Lead Malfoy back to glory .”

The dazed Scorpius made Lucius feel a little strange, but at this moment, what Lucius saw was the calmness behind the frantic eyes.

So Charles' lobbying didn't work out?

Lucius was inexplicably anxious.So, he nodded in a strange way.

Scorpius was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Lucius to respond, but soon he came back to his senses and laughed at himself: "You have always had confidence in me, but Charles didn't. He thought Asking me to give up the trial, and denying me the possibility of success without hesitation. Isn't it stupid?"

The situation described by Scorpius immediately extinguished the dim hope that Lucius had brewed in his heart just now.

Seeing the growing gloom in Lucius' eyes, Scorpius smiled again: "It seems that you really want me to live. Do you want me to protect the Malfoy family for you?"

Lucius hesitated for a second, then nodded.

"But Charles said I couldn't hold it." Scorpius said with regretful eyes like an outsider, "Sandwiched between the British blood clan, the wizards of the Ministry of Magic, and the blood clan royal family, he thinks I don't have the ability to support for a while. What's more, the prerequisite for doing all this is that I can't let you survive tonight. He is also very clear about the latter point, and I will definitely not kill you. "

"A lobbyist without sincerity." Lucius snorted coldly, laughing at his stupid idea of ​​hope just now, "but I don't think it has anything to do with your appearance here. I'm tired, Scott Skin."

"Actually, I think you misunderstood him, father. Charles was obviously selected very solemnly by the blood royal family. Although his rhetoric is not convincing at all, guess what?" Scorpius shook slightly Shaking his head, he suppressed Lucius' struggle.The crimson pupils representing the identity of the blood family firmly caught Lucius' sight, "I was convinced by him."

Lucius' stiffness spread to him as Scorpius grinned, revealing the vampire's signature canine teeth.

Bright red lips fell on Lucius' forehead, and a kiss fell: "You are trembling, father. Is it because you are afraid of what I am like now?"

"If you dare to bite me..."

"Aren't you curious? Why can such a poor lobbyist convince me?" Scorpius raised his voice again, interrupting Lucius with a livid face. His high-pitched tone was like the best fuel for fear.A hand covered Lucius' frightened gaze, and Scorpius' voice approached softly, "Charles is also the most detached among all the princes in the royal family. Because..."

The beating heart raised rhythmic noises across the sound field, and the sudden darkness reinforced Scorpius' sudden silence.Lucius, whose breathing rhythm was suddenly disordered, was choked by the cold air that suddenly rushed into his chest.

"He can read minds, father."

Lucius choked for a moment.

Little by little, his fingers climbed up Lucius' face, across the hairline, and slid towards the helix.Under the moonlight, the white and slender fingers gently stroked every inch of Lucius' ear until the fingertips drew a complete outline, and then slowly slid down.The thin skin under the fingers was aroused by the sharp texture of the nails, and the hairs stood on end.This makes the texture of skin exposed to moonlight visible.It's like a tempting dish, so delicate that you can't take your eyes off it.

"If it's me, is it okay?"
