gently caresses your cheek, voice barely above a whisper Hey y/n, what are we reading? grabs your book out of your hands
she flips through the pages with focus, seemingly lost in the world of the book
leans closer, peering at the book What's so interesting about this story? raises an eyebrow
it’s about a werewolf that finds his mate
smirks, pulling intrepidm closer Oh really? And what does this werewolf do once he finds his mate? Does he protect her?
I haven’t read that far yet but the first time he sees her she is fighting someone
narrowing his eyes, intrigued Fighting someone? Now that's the kind of girl I like. Strong and fierce. smirks
wraps his arms around intrepidm, pulling her even closer A girl who knows how to defend herself. I like that.
she continues reading her book while snuggling up against him
leans down and kisses intrepidm's forehead You know, y/n, I've always admired your strength and determination. It's one of the many reasons why I fell for you.
Her smile widens as she looks up at him, her eyes shining with affection Really, Draco? You think I'm strong?
squeezes her tightly, his voice filled with genuine admiration Absolutely, y/n. You're stronger than you realize.
brushes a strand of hair behind intrepidm's ear, his voice softening You know, sometimes I forget how much of an impact you've had on my life.
Oh, Draco... you've had quite the impact on me too. blushes slightly
pauses, a serious expression crossing his face There's something I need to tell you, y/n. Something I've been keeping hidden for a while now.
tilts her head, looking at him curiously What is it, Draco? You're scaring me a bit.
takes a deep breath, his grip on intrepidm tightening It's about my past, y/n. The things I've done... the people I've hurt.
softly, with concern What do you mean, Draco? What did you do?
looks down, his voice barely above a whisper I've done some terrible things, y/n. Things I'm not proud of. pauses, struggling with his emotions
softly, reaching out to touch his hand Draco... what are you talking about?
squeezes her hand, his voice trembling I was part of a group that... that did some terrible things. We hurt people, y/n. pauses, swallowing hard
What kind of things, Draco? her voice quivers slightly, sensing the gravity of the situation
takes a deep breath, his eyes locked with intrepidm's We were responsible for the attacks on the Weasley's shop and the Muggle-born students.
hugs him tightly I don’t care what you did to them I’m sure you had a good reason
pulls away from intrepidm, shaking his head No, y/n, it wasn't for a good reason. I was blinded by rage and jealousy.
Well, I’m not going to leave you I know what you did was wrong but I’m not going to just up and leave you
clenches his fists, his voice filled with determination Thank you, y/n. I appreciate your support, but I need to make things right.
How do you plan on making things right, Draco?
stands up, a fire burning in his eyes I will confront my old friends, y/n. I will make them understand the gravity of their actions.
puts her hand on his arm be careful I don’t want to lose you
places a hand on intrepidm's cheek, his voice firm I promise, y/n, I will be careful.
gives him a sweet smile well I guess I’ll go get dinner ready
grabs intrepidm's hand Wait, y/n. Before you go, I want to show you something.
What is it, Draco? raises an eyebrow, curious
leads intrepidm to a corner of the room, revealing a hidden compartment
surprised What is this, Draco?
opens the compartment, revealing a collection of ancient books I've been researching, y/n.
looks inside the compartment, astonished Draco, these books... they're ancient! How did you get these?
smirks, his voice dripping with pride I have my ways, y/n. These books hold the secrets of our ancestors, the dark magic that has been lost for centuries.
grabs one of the books, flipping through its pages Are you planning on using this magic, Draco?
Draco's eyes gleam with a dangerous light as he reveals his intentions to use the ancient magic to gain power and control over Hogwarts
And what if someone finds out, Draco? What then?
leans in close, his voice low and dangerous If someone finds out, they won't stand a chance against us, y/n.
swallows hard, gripping the book tightly Alright, Draco... I'm in. But promise me, you won't let this consume you.
leans in even closer, his voice barely above a whisper I promise, y/n. This will only make us stronger, not consume me.
Nods, a determined look in her eyes Alright, Draco. Let's start this journey together.
cracks open an ancient tome, a surge of dark energy filling the room Brace yourself, y/n. This is just the beginning of our rise to power.
